Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

"Caught up!"

3pm

Gene approached the moving command vehicle with Mo Xiaolan on his back. He jumped directly onto the roof of the vehicle, and then quickly landed at the door of the command headquarters. The door of the room had been opened. Zi Juan looked at Gene with some surprise. ,Smiling.

"headmaster!"

The directors who were busy in the headquarters stood up one after another and bowed respectfully. After Jean walked in, he sat directly next to a 3D light and shadow model that was still being drawn slowly. The model was extremely detailed, and AI3 also In the process of summarizing various data collected from field measurements, a huge model drawing of Jirigrad is being completed.

"Is something wrong, principal? You'll come over in person to say so."

Gene shook his head, and Zijuan looked at Mo Xiaolan.

"We should have talked about it on the phone, right?"

Mo Xiaolan looked around at the classmates who were continuing to work, and she stood directly over.

"Stop, Zijuan, if you continue, it will only increase the casualties."

Zijuan held the elbow of her right hand with her left hand, and looked at Mo Xiaolan with a smile while holding her chin in her right hand.

"Go on, this is not a place your level should step into."

"you"

As soon as Mo Xiaolan stretched out a finger to point at Zijuan, Zijuan quickly grabbed her finger, and she grimaced in pain.

"This is the action of our 3rd Department, it has nothing to do with you, right principal!"

Zijuan glanced at Jean, who was sitting behind her, and he nodded slightly.

"Can you tell me the battle plan?"

Jean asked, and Zijuan came over happily. When she was in school, Zijuan liked to stick to Jean very much. She always asked Jean tirelessly for various questions, and Jean also answered. One answer.

"First, we plan to bomb the western part of Jirigrad, and carry out all-round bombing from the front to the north and close to the mountains. Although we don't know how many enemies can be wiped out, we can effectively force the enemy to confront us in the east and south with wide visibility and flat terrain. In the exchange of fire, the tactics used were sharp-knife tactics, because there should be many bunkers in Jizhigrad. The locations of these bunkers are difficult to confirm, as well as arsenals, food and water production plants that may exist in Jizhigrad. At the same time, this battle It can also exercise the overall coordination and combat capabilities of the three departments, and all our staff will also participate."

Zijuan said, with a hint of excitement in her eyes, and Jean nodded. There are more than tens of thousands of criminals stationed in Jirigele. This is indeed a potential threat that cannot be underestimated. Before these criminals have expanded to Cleaning things up before things get tricky is the right thing to do.

Since the day the students graduated, Gene and the other six guys have decided not to interfere in any of the students' decisions and to give them the stage, space and time to freely display their talents.

Zijuan continued.

"In this battle, we will adopt a sharp-attack strategy. 200 squads will penetrate directly into Jizhigrad from the south and east, completely divide the battlefield, and control the battlefield initiative in the area. The western part will After a large-scale bombing, the enemy cannot evacuate in a short period of time. During the period when the enemy cannot evacuate, the raider tank, led by the raider tank, the fire suppression assistance of the small aerial fortress, the detection of the floater, and most of the Install a Vulcan automatic machine gun tower in the occupied area to control the battlefield bit by bit and clean it like a carpet."

Mo Xiaolan looked at Zijuan blankly. She couldn't say a word. No one likes war, but if there is no war, the three subjects will have no meaning of existence and cannot be exercised. Zijuan is determined to do so. Go ahead with this plan.

Casualties are just a bunch of numbers in the eyes of many people, especially Jean. Mo Xiaolan looked at Jean's calm expression. He has experienced far more wars than everyone present. He is more powerful than anyone else. Everyone understands the cruelty of war and what chaos will bring.

"What's your suggestion, principal?"

"The bunker's firepower point is confirmed!"

Zijuan smiled and nodded.

"Section 10 has provided the latest type of Guardian C7. They are used to provide fire support and flank protection for the advancing team, as well as attract firepower after discovering the bunker and determine the location of the bunker."

Gene stared blankly at the city in front of him. He had visited this city many times before, and every time he would be warmly entertained by the Angus family. Then Gene stood up, waved to everyone, and walked out of the command. The door was closed.

Looking at all the desolate things in front of him, Jean smiled bitterly. In the past, this place used to be thousands of miles fertile, and highland barley was the main crop here. To the west of Jirigrad, where the slope went down, there was originally a clean lake with a lake on it. There was a large water supply plant that Gene, Li Chu, and Werther helped build with the help of the Angus family, the Hoson family, and the Phoebes family.

There were various facilities in this city in the past. During the one hundred years from the end of the 21st century to the middle of the 22nd century, before the planet became what it is now, it provided facilities for the reproduction and prosperity of human beings again. A reliable and powerful guarantee.

Jean sat quietly next to the moving command vehicle, with the wind and sand hitting his cheeks from time to time. At that time, they were at the research base in the mountains where Brilliant City is now located, in order to lead some humans to leave the planet. , studying day and night, but time still hasn’t caught up. After the planet is completely enveloped in gray, the sun has become dispensable.

From the warm light that seemed to appear on a cloudy day at first, to the gradual haze, the sun completely disappeared. Contrary to their expectations, this land was officially renamed the Arena.

In his memory, Jean was familiar with every street in Jizhigrad. He often came here and could already see the whole of Jizhigrad. Jean stood up and looked at the outer circle. A large number of lights lit up. A circle of lights and swaying figures.

It has been many years since I have seen such large-scale pre-war preparations, and the war will start in more than three hours. No matter when, whenever I see this scene, Jean will always feel a sense of sadness, obviously. Have seen it countless times.

The criminals in the barrier area will not surrender. Jean knew this before coming here. Jean pressed his forehead and looked at the dilapidated city in front of him. It was getting closer and closer in front of him. It was intricate and intricate. Thoughts are intertwined in my mind.

"The dawn of a new era!"

Jean murmured, with a hint of sadness on his expression. Jean thought of Monica again, that powerful and resolute woman. She was once the most crazy armed force in this arena. She was born in She was once Jean's friend in this city.

Jean once spent a leisurely time with Monica, but when the two met again, they were already on the battlefield. In order to try his best to restore peace and restore the last fire of mankind, Jean could only and The other six guys ran around and finally integrated all the forces.

"If it's for the dawn of a new era, I don't care, Jean. Every cell in my body has been contaminated with sin. The new era cannot give me a place, so it's up to you to kill me with your own hands. It's the best choice. I've done a lot of unforgivable things in the past, but now it's just right. After all, everyone wants me to die. This is also to establish your majesty as gods. Don't hesitate, Jean! If you hesitate , cities cannot be built!”

Jean pressed his cheek with one hand. On one side was the dazzling city shrouded in sunlight, and on the other was the desolate and cold barrier area.

"I'm sorry Monica, your long-cherished wish has still not been fulfilled until now. The real new era!"

The command vehicle stopped. At this time, the door of the command center behind him opened. Mo Xiaolan walked out expressionlessly, with uneasiness in his eyes. Behind him, Zijuan and other directors also came out. They would rush to The front line, as a powerful guarantee for this sharp knife operation, opened up routes for the members of Section 3 to penetrate into Jizhigrad.

The deployment in the south and east was coming to an end, and members of each team were summoned by the captain to begin arranging tactical operations.

"Why don't you do something? Do you really feel like this?"

Mo Xiaolan looked at Jean blankly, but did not finish her words because she saw the helplessness on Jean's face.

"I know what you want to say about lazy people, poor people abandoned by the times, who eventually became criminals. Under the squeeze of the city, they were finally swept here like garbage, and now even their last bit of habitat is They must also be deprived, or deprived of their right to survive.”

Mo Xiaolan sat on the side of Jean, with his back leaning against Jean and his head slightly raised.

"No matter what kind of system, there is no perfect one, and all systems and orders serve the purpose of development. Some are fast, some are slow, and some adapt, but in the end we cannot stop. Once If it stagnates, the crisis will be closer. Now you can only do your own duties, and no one can do everything. Everyone has graduated many years ago! Isn’t it?"

Mo Xiaolan nodded slightly.

"I just think that the wrong approach from the beginning, no matter how far it develops, will never be corrected in the future. Gene, you have never talked to us about the past, not because you don't want to look back, but because You can always see a glimmer of light from the future, but it’s just too cruel for everyone now.”

Gene smiled and nodded.

"Human beings always move forward in hardships and hardships, but they survive time and time again. Don't shy away from being lazy. This suffering is the truest appearance of human beings!"

4 o'clock in the afternoon

A hole has been opened in the middle section of the city wall directly south of the eastern guard station.

Nearly 20 meters long and 8 meters wide, it is completely black, has a long pointed head, and is flat overall. There are two arc-shaped concave tail fins at the end. It can accommodate one person. This Annihilator A1 fighter can fly at a constant speed. The first cosmic speed flight, the maximum speed can rise to 10KM/s, it only takes tens of seconds to reach the battlefield hundreds of kilometers away, and it can also hover invisible at an altitude of up to 5 kilometers.

It can instantly complete precise positioning and bombing strikes on the battlefield, and it comes with an accurate AI air measurement system. The surface of the fighter plane, which seems to be seamless, actually has countless small heat dissipation slots, which can be used during the fierce flight. To ensure that the fighter aircraft will not overheat and cause problems, unmanned tests have been used before, but the test conditions have not been able to meet expectations because of the uncontrollability of the speed. The pilot only needs to control and throw explosives after receiving prompts. Human manipulation can also have a safe buffer time.

Generally, a confirmation signal needs to be sent to the ground forces at the bombing site. After the ground forces confirm, the bombing will begin. This kind of fighter is equipped with a linear Ripper N9 bomb. The high-heat and high-explosive bomb can be used in one Covers a designated area instantly and will not spread too far outside the bombing area.

The most critical thing is that this kind of fighter cannot be intercepted by today's missile technology. Only the latest light-kill interception weapons of Section 10 can shoot down this kind of fighter.

The fighter plane is equipped with small guided missiles and a precise AI strafing missile system. Even if it is discovered by the missile while hovering in the air, it can accurately intercept it or use its speed to escape the missile's tracking signal range.

A large number of Section 3 personnel are loading boxes of Ripper bombs into a recessed bomb chute under the fighter plane. 30 Annihilator A1s are being lined up in the fighter room on the middle floor of the eastern guard station. 30 pilots are Rest, many people seem a little anxious. The scale and scope of this cluster bombing mission is relatively large, and the pilots need to rely on the data provided by AI to confirm the strike when they arrive at the battlefield.

The scope of the bombing was Jizrigrad in the south of the Alatan Mountains and nearly one-third of the city in the west. The bombing was a relay, a large-scale full-range bombing carried out from south to north.

Starting from the bombing mission that started yesterday, the Annihilator A1 fighter performed very well and completed the bombing mission very well. The total number of bombings has reached 87 times, annihilating at least 5,000 criminals, and fighting against 63 criminal gatherings. land.

At this time, there was some commotion in the hangar. Many people stood up straight and watched the section chief Osman come in. They all saluted. Osman strolled in front of the 30 pilots.

"One more confirmation signal!"

The 30 pilots looked at Osman with some confusion. Generally, before bombing, they would confirm the signal three times before starting bombing, but everyone bowed slightly to express their obedience to Osman's order.

Over the years, Osman has personally selected some talents to teach mechanical operations. In the eyes of many department members, Osman is a gentle section chief with no airs or temper. In his spare time, he will Go to some entertainment facilities in the guard station and have a drink with the ordinary officers.

Osman looked at the fighter planes that were loading bombs. This bombing has almost exhausted the inventory of Tearer bombs in Section 3. The latest batch of Tearer bombs are still being manufactured and will be available at 7 o'clock tonight at the latest. Ship it over.

The mechanical maintenance team of Section 3 is conducting data debugging and testing on each Annihilator A1 fighter. Once a confirmation signal is received from the front, these fighters will be dispatched and will receive another confirmation signal before arriving at the battlefield until the bombing. The bombing will begin after the third confirmation signal before.

Osman always felt uneasy. He had already talked with his wife Zijuan, and finally Zijuan agreed to confirm the bombing signal for the fourth time.

The bombing signal in the south was personally confirmed by Zijuan, while in the east it was Ling Hong.

Looking at the dusty barrier area, Osman stood quietly by the exit of the fighter jets and sat down cross-legged. There was always a trace of worry on his face.

The correct rationalization of the operation is what Section 3 needs to do at present. Section 1 has prepared response measures after the news of mass casualties appears. Osman has been thinking about the correctness of this operation all day long, but there is still no answer. , this method of handling may be reasonable in the eyes of many people. In order to deal with the criminals in the barrier area who have begun to pose a threat, this operation was prompted by such correctness.

"An answer without an answer is the best answer!"

5 o'clock in the afternoon

"I just hope you don't think about anything. Once the battle begins, the only thing you need to do is to follow the battle plan and annihilate the enemy. If you hesitate on the battlefield, you may pay the price with your life in the next second. Everyone can now Let’s continue to rest, there are still 2 hours left.”

A group of staff who had put on combat armor and were surrounding a female team leader began to disperse. The same words were repeated in every team. This was also Ling Hong having a meeting with the team leaders. Said that time.

The sky has begun to turn dark. Ling Hong is sitting in the studio, looking at a set of confirmation signals on the light and shadow screen. Zijuan will be responsible for the first bombing, and looking at the actual effect of the sharp knife battle, if the effect is not too good Ideal, which will probably require a second bombing, has captured some of the criminals through some floaters, and it looks like there are a lot of them.

Removal of bunkers is the primary task of sharp knife operations. Only by consolidating the offensive after entering the city and slowly advancing the mopping up operations can the success be achieved.

At this time, the door of the combat headquarters was opened, and Ling Hong looked at Jean who walked in with some surprise.

"Principal, what are you doing?"

Gene was followed by Mo Xiaolan, and Ling Hong sighed.

"You called the principal here, little lazy one."

Mo Xiaolan walked over casually, turned on a hot water machine, and started making tea.

"You are also confused, right Ling Hong."

Ling Hong looked at Mo Xiaolan's serious expression and finally nodded slightly.

"I don't know whether this operation is correct or not, what is the meaning of this, and what will continue into the future! These people have no way to retreat, so they have such a strong sense of counterattack, no Accept arrest or surrender."

Ling Hong said and looked at Jean who was sitting on one side. She really hoped that Jean would say something, but it was obvious that Jean would not say anything.

"Isn't it heavy? This stick."

Gene smiled, but his expression was not relaxed, and Ling Hong hummed.

"It's very heavy! Principal, it's really heavy."

"Of course, work hard! What you do, how you think, and how you seize the future are your own business. I have already taught you everything I can teach you!"

Gene said and stood up and walked out of the command center. Ling Hong stood up and bowed formally.

"Principal! I want to ask one last question."

Gene stopped at the door.

"What if! I mean if, principal, what would you do?"

Jean scratched his head and glanced at Jirigele in front of him.

"That's all! Given the current situation, this may be the only way."

Ling Hongming knew the answer, but maybe somewhere in her heart, she still wanted to confirm with her mentor, but the result was still the same.

"I understand, principal! Thank you for coming."

Jean walked out of the command room with a smile and looked at the teams around him that had begun to advance slowly. The Raider Chariot was like a moving steel wall, slowly advancing past.

Whizzing

At the edge of the city in the distance, two fiery red lights lit up and flew over in the blink of an eye.

crunch

In an instant, the sharp concave spiral armor on the front ends of several Raider tanks opened and made a loud noise. Two approaching missiles were instantly hit hundreds of meters away. Along with two bulging flames, all teams were stunned for a moment. It began to move, and the Raider Chariot began to slow down its movement speed. The distance between the two was widened, and many of the subsequent team members boarded the Raider Chariot.

Many members of the team were still waiting for orders. The sudden attack made many people immediately tighten their weapons. They originally thought that the attacks would continue to come, but after a few minutes, there was no movement on the other side.

The slow advance of the defense line continued, but at this time many people's faces were no longer relaxed. The sudden attack made many people's originally relaxed mood instantly become tense.

"Haha! Just scare them, and that's what they do."

In a place sandwiched between two houses, behind only a small hole in the bunker that can stick out the head, several criminals are tinkering with weapons. Most people here did not take much with them when they left. Most of the weapons, which were originally under the control of the gang, were fully handed over to the people who stayed before leaving.

Tens of thousands of small missiles have been deployed on the edge of the entire city. The production factories in the city are basically in operation every day. Many criminals in the bunker have already loaded all the magazines of sniper rifles with a range of 2,000 meters. The tables were full, and they were ready to face the attack from the Xingke Department head-on. Everyone came to the east and south of the city.

These two sides have the densest number of bunkers. Over the years, one strong bunker after another has been built to cope with such moments.

"Those cowards just ran away! Bah."

A man in the bunker cursed and fired several shots violently at the dense and slow-moving group of business units as if venting his anger.

"Idiot, your position will be exposed."

An experienced man next to him immediately stopped the still drunk man. However, there was still no response from the Xingke department and they were still approaching slowly. Three kilometers away from the edge of the city, the Xingke movement stopped. .

There were constant gunshots all around, and the experienced man immediately shouted with the radio.

"You idiots, if you exposed your position so early."

"Hahaha, what are you afraid of? You will die anyway."

"Yeah, yeah, fight them."

Whizzing

Someone pressed the missile launcher near the bunker again. This time, the missiles fired were somewhat dense. However, before they even got close, they were all destroyed by strafing machine guns.

Ling Hong quietly looked at the location of the bunker that the floater had confirmed. These locations had been sent to the team directly opposite. As long as the location of the bunker was confirmed, the team members would use heavy ground-penetrating bombs to directly attack and destroy the bunker.

In a picture of a Raider tank, two team members carried a weapon that was nearly 3 meters long and had a square metal mechanical box at the end, the Armor Penetrator V7. This weapon can penetrate 30 meters underground and then explode. An ammunition that was 30 centimeters long and 6 centimeters wide had been filled in, and soon the two men opened a small opening in the Raider tank.

Looking at the value given by the floater on the light and shadow screen next to him, he adjusted the position of the armor-piercing V7. After adjusting it to the correct position, he was already facing a bunker at a certain location. The initial operation to remove the bunker would be during the bombing. Start as soon as you finish.

Everyone was quietly waiting for the battle to begin. The criminals on the opposite side would fire at them from time to time as if to provoke them. The sound of stray bullets hitting the metal was heard from time to time. This was irritating. The provocation is stimulating the nerves of every section member, and some of them can't help but want to fight back.

A clerk couldn't bear it any longer. He released the safety on his weapon, but the butt of the gun was held down by the team leader next to him. The team leader held a cigarette in his mouth and said with a smile.

"Don't be anxious, be careful of misfires. We have plenty of time. I'm afraid we won't be able to have a good rest tonight, so why are we in such a hurry?"

As he said this, the squad leader pulled the safety of the weapon in the hands of the team members again. The uneasiness began to spread with the wanton attacks from the opposite side. Many people had sweaty palms, but when their fingers touched the trigger, When I saw it, something strange flashed through my heart.

Many people don't know what they will face next. There seem to be a lot of heavy firepower weapons in the hands of the enemy. The anxiety has made most people sweat profusely, but they can't take off their helmets, even if there are built-in breathing apparatuses in the helmets. Temperature control system, but the heat and anxiety still make most staff feel burning.

The time is getting closer and closer, it is almost six o'clock, and the firing from the opposite side has basically not stopped. Shooting is coming from many places. Many staff members can no longer bear it, and their whole bodies are getting stiffer and stiffer. Some staff members feel it. Fear, because we all know that someone will die, and real war is not as simple as imagined.

"Captain! Can I go to the bathroom?"

A female staff member said, and the squad leader nodded, watching helplessly as the female staff member quickly got off the Raider Chariot. There was no difference between male or female under this sky.

"Attention all teams, start moving forward and wait for orders to fight back!"

When the order came, the team leader looked at the female staff member who had run away some distance away. The other raider tanks began to move. The team leader wiped his sweat. Finally, the female staff member who went to the toilet came back. After grabbing the chariot, the chariot began to move.
