Mecha and Knife

At the end of the fifth night when Ji Xinghe arrived in the western theater, the independent regiment led by him had already smashed the imperial defense line for a day and two nights, not to mention being beaten into a sieve, but it was not much better.

Of course, the western theater will launch a full-scale attack on outpost 1840 sometime during the day today.

This battle has many followers.

"Two hundred Zhanshan-level mechas can achieve such an effect. If Ji Xinghe transfers the other hundred Zhanshan-level mechas from No. 5 base to the western theater, the empire's line of defense should have been penetrated by them. Alright."

Tu Yuan's tone was a little envious.

This is also normal. If Chen Xuan hadn't died in the western theater, the independent regiment led by Ji Xinghe would still be under his command sequence, and now the independent regiment belongs to the command sequence of the Battle Scar Canyon theater. To put it bluntly, they are Kentweiss' subordinates.

Han Li nodded in agreement beside him and said, "If there are one hundred Zhanshan more, this line of defense should have been pierced in the first half of last night, and the western theater will carry out continuous fire bombing in the second half of the night. Now, This line of defense is ready to carry out clearing and suppression operations.”

As if he didn't hear the envy in Tu Yuan's tone, he discussed the battle situation seriously.

Wang Wei heard it, and said in a regretful tone: "If Lao Ji and the others stay in our war zone..."

"It's useless to stay in our theater." Tu Yuan denied Wang Wei's guess, and explained: "If Ji Xinghe hadn't gone to Battle Scar Canyon, the empire would not have launched an attack on our theater so quickly, allowing such a strong independent The regiment has been idle for nearly a month, and no one will agree."

Wang Wei's tone was still very regretful: "Old Ji himself would not agree that his independent regiment has been idle for such a long time, but they can definitely go to the battlefield of Gods Mountain, or to the battlefield of No. 6 base. If Lao Ji leads the independent regiment If we go to Base No. 6, we might be able to defend it.”

The people next to him understood what Wang Wei meant.

Whether it is the battlefield of the Gods Mountain, or the No. 6 base theater where Tu Yuan previously commanded the B72 highland battle, they can all become Tu Yuan's command sequence.

This also means that all the combat achievements Ji Xinghe and the independent regiment made can be counted on Tu Yuan's head.

If the No. 6 base can be defended, or even a real third war zone can be created around the No. 6 base, similar to the two major war zones of the Gods Mountain and the Battle Scar Canyon, then Tu Yuan will take over as the next commander-in-chief. The position is more secure.

But now...

Han Li frowned. He didn't like such topics, but in his current position, he had to participate in such occasions.

Seeing that the main force sent by the empire for the second time against the No. 5 base theater is about to pass through many blockades, how could it be possible that Tu Yuan did not hold a combat meeting?

He has been staying at Base No. 5 these days, and after the layout is completed, he has paid attention to the battle in the western theater of Battle Scar Canyon.

"Don't discuss such topics again in the future."

Tu Yuan gave a gentle reminder, and then asked: "Han Li, do you feel that Ji Xinghe has become stronger?"

"Yes." Han Li replied without any hesitation: "When he led the independent regiment to wipe out the 800 imperial mechs the day before yesterday, he drove Zhan Shan to a whole new level, and I now think It's impossible for me to get there."

Tu Yuan was a little surprised: "You think you can't achieve it?"

"Yes."

Han Li nodded and said: "This has nothing to do with confidence, it's only related to me not being a mechanic. Because I am not a mechanic, it is impossible for me to understand every part of Zhanshan, and then I am like an old man, operating It’s time to exert the power of every part. It’s like the strength he achieved, which can exert the power of every part of the whole body, including blood, breath, spinal cord and so on.”

Tu Yuan doesn't know kung fu, but he has also watched the teaching video of Jijiaquan, and knows the strengths of Dan Jin and Gang Jin mentioned by Ji Xinghe.

It is the realm of strength, not the realm, but the method and secret of strength.

"Is it not possible to use neural link driving technology?"

"No. Although a more advanced operation method can make me stronger, it doesn't mean that I can really understand the mech I'm driving."

After pondering for a while, Tu Yuan asked: "Is it possible that he can display Zhan Shan's power beyond your cognition, not because he is a mechanic, but because his realm is higher and his heart has changed?" Stronger than before?"

"kindness?"

Han Li frowned, and looked at Tu Yuan with suspicion in his eyes, as if to say: You, a civilian general who can't beat the old man wearing a single-soldier exoskeleton armor, are also worthy of teaching me how to do things?

Of course, Han Li, who has always respected Tu Yuan, couldn't have thought like this. But the people next to him guessed what he meant from his expression and eyes.

It can only be said that the fact that Tu Yuan's leg was broken by Ji Xinghe will become an indelible black spot in Tu Yuan's life.

Tu Yuan looked at Han Li's puzzled eyes, and said softly, "He contacted Nantianmen and asked where Ji Chenxing's grave is."

Han Li was stunned.

Of course he knew where Ji Chenxing's grave was, because he buried it with his own hands, but because Ji Chenxing had no bones left at that time, it was buried in the Clothes Tomb.

After Ji Xinghe came to Yixing, he was always ready to take Ji Xinghe to see Jichenxing, but Ji Xinghe had never asked him about this before.

He thought before that it was because there was no body of Ji Chenxing in the tomb, so Ji Xinghe didn't regard the tomb as a real one.

But now it seems...

"I see."

Han Li suddenly realized that Ji Xinghe's heart was stronger than before.

True strength has never been about being able to fight, but about daring to face the greatest fear in your heart.

Not only did Ji Xinghe ask about the location of Ji Chenxing's tomb, but Ji Xinghe was now able to accept the sacrifice of his soldiers calmly, and even forcibly ordered his soldiers to suppress their strength, which led to inevitable sacrifices.

All these can show that Ji Xinghe's heart has really become stronger.

Tu Yuan nodded and said nothing more.

...

The Battle Scar Canyon Command at Nantianmen is undoubtedly the unit that pays the most attention to the war in the western theater.

Kentweiss, after praising the achievements of the independent regiment and firmly determined to establish another independent regiment, raised a question to Kedilin who participated in the meeting online.

"Kadilin, if you are the commander of the empire, what kind of force composition do you think is needed to be able to deal with the independent regiment?"

"Only mechas can deal with mechas. Apart from that, any force possessed by the empire cannot wipe out the independent group."

After Kaidilin gave the answer first, he added: "If you want to use the mecha corps to deal with the independent regiment, you can only invest a large number of regular-level mechas in a siege without counting casualties... I think it takes two hundred Zhanshan The Independent Regiment needs 1,500. If it is the Independent Regiment of Zhanshan with 300 fighters, it needs 2,000. Of course, there is a premise that the Independent Regiment will not retreat and fight to the death."

Kentweiss was a little surprised, and asked with a frown: "One hundred Zhanshan can annihilate 800 Imperial Mechas, and two hundred Zhanshan can counter-annihilate with only 1,500?"

He directly ignored the premise that Kedilin said.

"Yes."

Kaidilin sneered in his heart while responding out loud.

If he hadn't used a holographic projection to participate in this meeting, his sneer would definitely have appeared directly on his face.

madness.

Tang Qiao, who also participated in the meeting, had already scolded in his heart.

But in fact, Kentweiss is not as stupid as Kedilin and Tang Qiao think, and this problem is not too big of a problem.

It is unprecedented for the Federation to form an independent group with so many mountain-cutting mechas. How many people can know what the independent group can do before the independent group shows their true limits?

"Before the independent regiment was able to annihilate the 800 imperial mechs, Ji Xinghe played a vital role in it, and the four of Qin Tong were the same. With them, the one hundred, no, the ninety-nine Only by cutting mountains can they display extraordinary combat effectiveness. But when the number of imperial mechs increases to a certain level, the role of Ji Xinghe and Qin Tong will be greatly reduced."

Kedilin still answered Kentweiss' question.

Kentweiss frowned and did not let go: "Ji Xinghe has replaced the new general armor, and all members of the independent regiment use the neural link technology to drive the mecha, can't it?"

"no."

Kedilin denied it again, and gave the reason: "Because there were no marquis or duke-level mechas last time, not even earl-level mechas. And once the empire dispatched 1,500 mechas to besiege the independent group, it would inevitably Send out matching Earl, Marquis, and Duke mechas, and Ji Xinghe’s role will be greatly reduced. The gap in numbers is difficult to bridge.”

Kentweiss already believed Kaidilin's words, but he didn't want to believe it.

Thinking of a sentence that Tu Yuan emphasized in the plan when he proposed the plan to build an independent regiment, he asked another question.

"But the nobles of the empire are very afraid of death, and the people of the independent group are not afraid of death, including Qin Tong, they are not afraid of death. Does this change anything?"

"No." Kaidilin said: "As I said just now, as long as the empire sends 1,500 mechas to besiege the independent regiment, it means that they are sure of victory. I can see the limit of the independent regiment's combat power, they The same can be done, which means that those Earl, Marquis, and Duke level mechs will go all out to participate in the battle."

Kentweiss glanced at the third line of defense of the empire, the military information that had been detected by the Federation, and asked again: "Ji Xinghe can always create miracles, what if he can create miracles again?"

Kaidilin couldn't bear it anymore, and replied in a bad tone: "It's because of the consideration that Ji Xinghe can always create miracles, so I said that I want 1,500 mechas. If you don't take this into consideration, 1,000 Two hundred will be enough."

"One thousand two hundred? Ji Xinghe alone is only worth three hundred imperial mechas?"

Ken Twiss' regretful voice made many people astonished.

It's not Ji Xinghe's challenge. Isn't it enough that a mech warrior can stand up to 300 imperial mechas, and there are matching duke-level mechas?

"General." Kaidilin said with a frown, "Your questions are meaningless. The empire doesn't know that the independent regiment has a killer weapon, and it doesn't know that Ji Xinghe's new general armor is already in place. It is impossible for them to send 1,500 fighters." The mechs besieged the independent regiment regardless of the cost. This is why Ji Xinghe hid his strength before, he wanted to lead the independent regiment, and eat the power that the empire used to annihilate the independent regiment."

Is that so?

Kentweiss didn't speak again, but thought about it.

After the meeting ended, Kaidilin, who had just completed the brain-computer implantation, left the ground command of the western theater, preparing to continue adapting to the new driving mode. Before leaving, he glared at Tang Qiao, the representative of Kentweiss.

What are you worried about?

Tang Qiao returned a polite smile, and then received a communication from Kentweiss.

I found a place where no one was there, and the communication was established.

"Tang Qiao, what is Ji Xinghe's plan?"

"Basically consistent with what Colonel Kedilin said just now, Ji Xinghe believes that when they attack the empire's defense line at the 1844 outpost, the empire will send about 1,200 mechas to annihilate them, and use the defense line as a bait to attract our troops and let the independent The regiment has no support."

Kentweiss asked again: "Ji Xinghe thinks that his independent regiment can eat 1,200 imperial mechas, and those big noble mechas?"

"Yes." Tang Qiao replied: "Colonel Kedilin's judgment is actually very accurate, and it is basically the same as Ji Xinghe's combat power against his independent regiment."

"But Kedilin said just now that 1,200 imperial mechas, together with matching noble mechas, can annihilate the independent regiment."

"Colonel Kedilin also said that it is a miracle that Ji Xinghe can create."

Kentweiss was speechless for a moment.

He asked again: "What if the empire sent 1,500 mechas?"

Tang Qiao's pupils shrank slightly, and he heard some problems from Kentweiss' question.

But he acted as if he didn't know, and after thinking for a while, he replied: "Ji Xinghe will lead the independent regiment to retreat directly, or drag the battle."

"Then what if..." Kentweiss hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Can't the independent regiment retreat?"

Tang Qiao sighed inwardly, no longer pretending to be stupid, and directly said the answer Kentweiss wanted to hear.

"Preparing at least 300 mechas for support can help the independent regiment that may only have ace mecha fighters to annihilate those 1,500 mechas. While capturing a large number of imperial mechas, including Duke-level mechas, you can also ...Recover almost all Zhanshan."

Hearing this sentence, Kentweiss was satisfied.

"You go to the front and prepare to help Ji Xinghe form a new independent regiment."

"yes."

The communication was directly hung up.

Kentweiss didn't tell Tang Qiao anything, and he didn't need Tang Qiao to do anything before. No one could influence Ji Xinghe's will, including him, so Tang Qiao really didn't need to do anything.

But someone can control Ji Xinghe's will, such as...

Tang Qiao, who rushed to the front line as soon as the communication ended, found a chance to meet Ji Xinghe alone.

At this time, the western theater has successfully broken through the empire's second line of defense, and is in the stage of clearing and suppressing operations. As long as the clearing is completed, the No. 1842 outpost and the defense line can be recovered and become a stepping stone to attack the No. 1844 outpost.

Ji Xinghe is repairing the mecha, another member of the independent regiment died, and the seven Zhanshan needs to be repaired.

Tang Qiao stood behind Ji Xinghe, speaking long and short in a low voice.

"Kentwiss will use the lives of more than 100,000 troops in the western theater to let you choose to fight to the death with the independent regiment. The empire will definitely send at least 1,500 mechas, and you will not be able to fight with the independent regiment. Therefore, I suggest ..."
