Xingwu hegemony

Chapter 43
The Marine Corps plus tanks without air force support, although supported by the bunker line of defense, still cannot defeat the Zerg Beasts and the multi-armed troops in the air and ground. In just over two hours since the battle started, more than 40 soldiers have been lost in the position Yu Fei is in charge of. People and 6 tanks had to compress the defense line to prevent the opponent from finding a weak point to break through.

Yu Fei's company is responsible for defending a fan-shaped area. After shrinking the personnel, they entered the second row of ten bunkers. The main task of the third row is to cover the tanks, so whether they can defend the second row of bunkers depends on whether they can survive. The key to passing the opponent's attack.

But the current situation is that there is a shortage of tanks for tanks, no fighters for fighters, no satellites, and the most basic tactical reconnaissance can't be done. Being blocked at home to fight, there is really no way to think about it.

Just when Yu Fei was depressed and wanted to draw out his mecha sword to attack, the space engineering vehicle returned to the base to get supplies brought back a lot of mines, which made Yu Fei's eyes shine. You must know that the main force of the opponent is the ground force. If you can use Mine restraint should work well for them.

But how to go out to lay mines has become a problem. Under normal circumstances, transport ships can be air-dropped, or mortars can be fired, but now these two conditions are not met, and only the most primitive artificial minelaying method can be used.

It is undoubtedly a very dangerous thing to lay mines under the noses of the enemy. Yu Fei led a 40-man team, took advantage of the interval between the opponent's two waves of attacks, and drove the only mobile unit on the ground, and 20 evil wolf jet trains rushed away. go out.

In order to increase the speed, the wolf jet train has reduced its firepower and armor thickness. This kind of vehicle mainly completes some high-mobility tactical tasks. The standard hit-and-run vehicle also meets the current needs.

The flamethrowers on ten of the wolves have been dismantled and installed on the bunker. Hundreds of mines are placed on the vacated brackets, and the other ten vehicles are stuffed in the carriages. Landmines are placed on the ground regularly.

All mines are divided into spider mines and widow mines. The lethality and killing methods are the same as before. The only difference is that the appearance is made of invisible materials. It works the same as the reconnaissance mecha. After landing, it will enter the activation mode and lock on to the target. It will explode automatically.

After the jet train pressed forward, the troops assembled by the opponent immediately launched an attack. Hundreds of mutated locusts with more than ten poisonous banelings rushed towards the jet train. The marines inside also responded immediately, using various weapons Start shooting and buy yourself time.

Yu Fei was in a car with Fatty Ma. After throwing out more than 20 mines in the car, he shot from the window with a Gauss rifle, and asked Fatty Ma to drive the car in a Z shape to attract more mutant locusts to his teammates. Take some stress off.

"Small things, drag racing is my favorite." Fatty Ma turned the car sideways with a beautiful drift, and began to drive along a route perpendicular to the opponent's attack direction.

It is difficult for bullets to hit effectively at this speed, so Yu Fei put away the window and stood up from the back seat, leaned out his upper body through the sunroof and started operating the flamethrower.

After the switch was pressed, the long tongue of flame rolled with black smoke and spewed out with a sound like a monster roaring. Yu Fei held the switch firmly and turned the nozzle again, dancing the tongue of flame into an S-shaped arc. The flame whip of the line burned the mutant locusts that were chasing, and at the same time, a sea of ​​flames was formed on the ground.

With the barrier of the sea of ​​flames, the chasing orc troops had to go around, which slowed down the opponent's speed, and the rest of the jet trains also started working in the same way, each with a chasing troop. Go around in circles and cover the retreat as the other ten vehicles without flamethrowers finish their work.

When actually operating the flamethrower and observing the results of the battle at close range, Yu Fei discovered one thing, that is why the flamethrower has a miraculous effect on the melee troops of the Zerg Beasts, it is completely a good restraint effect.

First of all, there are two types of melee troops of the Zombie Clan, Mutated Locusts and Poisonous Banelings. With the aid of this pair of wings, it can't jump quickly, and its forward speed has also dropped. The face poisonous baneling has a thin layer of acid on its abdomen, and it can easily explode when it is roasted by fire.

"Haha, cool" Yu Fei shouted excitedly while turning the handle happily.

The jet trains here frantically created a sea of ​​flames, and the opponent's medium-range troops, as well as the air force, also dispatched one after another, blowing up four jet trains.After the rest of the vehicles had finished laying out the mines, they used weapons to support Yu Fei and others to retreat, but Fatty Ma's rise to kill unexpectedly turned the steering wheel and rushed towards the opponent's position.

"Fatty man, are you crazy?" Yu Fei yelled in fright.

"What are you afraid of? Fatty, you still can't trust my skills? Watch me stalking them to death like a dog," Fatty Ma said confidently.

"Don't be brave, I have to go back to command the battle." Yu Fei thought it was worth taking a little risk, and he could also take a look at the number of troops on the other side's hillside.

With Yu Fei's consent, Fatty Ma became more confident. He drew an arc towards the opponent's position and rushed over, avoiding the mutated locusts chasing and intercepting them, while the poisonous baneers were too slow to get up. The edge of a hillside.

From here, you can see the troops of the Insect Beast Clan, which is so dark that it is impossible to count, but when the line of sight extends slightly to the distance, Yu Fei and Fatty Ma gasp at the same time.

Behind the Zerg Beast army, extending to the end of the line of sight, a yellow wall is rising at this moment, moving at high speed towards the direction of the exchange of fire between the two sides. This is a weather phenomenon that often occurs on Mars - sandstorms.

Mars is a desert planet that is extremely dry and lacks water, and the atmospheric pressure is very small, so it is easy to produce such large-scale dust storms. Some people have proposed to transform the Martian soil, use vegetation and water systems to alleviate dust storms, but it has not yet been implemented. I encountered the attack of the insect orc clan.

Seeing this dust storm, both of them sank in their hearts. This is a good cover for the attacking Zerg and Beast troops. Without a clear vision, the effectiveness of human weapons will be greatly reduced, while the opponents will be even more powerful. Easy to melee attack.

"Go back quickly, it will take about half an hour to get here, I have to inform Brother Gui quickly." After Yu Fei finished speaking, Fatty Ma made a big U-turn, the tires rubbed against the smooth rocky ground, and there was a piercing scream and a burnt smell. Following the roar of the engine, the jet train began to accelerate towards the human position.

The troops of the Insect Beasts did not intend to let them leave so easily. Dozens of flying dragons sprayed fireballs and parasites from the sky like raindrops. Fortunately, the fireballs could only fly in a straight line. The shape can be taken off.

But those small bugs are difficult to deal with. They can twist their bodies and change directions in the air, so the hit rate is much higher than that of fireballs. Moreover, these small bugs have mouth-shaped suction cups on their abdomens, which stick to the car and suck them tightly. Then crawl over and bite Yu Fei or the car body.

The number of parasites sticking to the car body is increasing, and Yu Fei doesn't care about operating the flamethrower anymore. He draws out the energy of the sub-element crystal with his mecha sword, and starts to pick them down with the knife, and uses the red air mass to burn them from time to time with his left hand. those bugs.

The high temperature is their nemesis. After being hit by the red air mass, they quickly shrink their tentacles and fall off the car body. In this way, Fatty Ma drove, and Yu Fei killed the parasites, and finally insisted on driving the car to the human camp .

As soon as the car stopped, Mike, Song Yu, and that Ivan who had already been there rushed up to kill the remaining parasites on the car. Yu Fei jumped off and rushed into the car before the car stopped. A bunker with a phone, pick it up and call the command center.

Hearing that there was a sandstorm in the distance, the old ghost also became nervous. You must know that the enemy is outnumbered, relying on the advantage of the volcanic highlands to defend. As for the main base, now it's a question of which is better, the right time or the right place.

After learning this information, the old ghost did not hesitate to order the defense line to shrink, and all retreated to the cave-like firepower points built by hollowing out the mountain. All ground buildings were temporarily abandoned, and they all retreated to the conical Mount Olympus. If the attack has to charge up the steep hillside, it will be mercilessly harvested by the firepower of the human race.

In addition to retreating, the old ghost gave another order, and all the pre-selected personnel took advantage of the sandstorm to jump out of the encirclement to carry out reconnaissance missions.

The company led by Yu Fei had already lost half of its manpower, and was arranged by the old ghost to rest and serve as a reserve team. The original plan was for Yu Fei, Fatty Ma, Mike and Song Yu to form a reconnaissance team, but Song Yu Wounded in the thigh by the Hydralisk, now there are only three people left.

"Call that Ivan, I saw him fighting bravely just now, he's a man," Mike said while changing the reconnaissance mecha in the bunker.

"Okay, then you and his team." Yu Fei nodded and agreed, and called Ivan to ask him if he would like to join the temporary reconnaissance team.

"No problem," Ivan said readily, and the four of them put on four sets of reconnaissance mechas, each with their own weapons and equipment, and prepared to start looking for opportunities to get out.

Due to the delay in the laying of the mines just now, there is still some preparation time in Yu Fei's position. The Marine Corps helped those engineering vehicles to dismantle the detachable mechs, missile towers, and combined bunkers. The place is hidden.

Yu Fei chose to lie in a pile of mutated locust corpses, dragged several corpses to cover himself, and even wiped the stinky green liquid from the mutated locust belly on his body, so as to cover up his own smell.

Fatty Ma hid under a scrapped tank, supported the tracks on both sides with his hands and feet, and used the stealth function of the mecha to hide there. Mike and Ivan found a tunnel and blocked the sides with gravel. Stop, the four of them held their breaths, waiting for the attacking troops of the Zerg Beasts to pass by...

(The two main roles have already been accepted, the human race will appear in Chapter 59, the iron blood race has no suitable opportunity yet, I will add the corresponding plot when I write it)
