People's Federation will live forever

Bud and the others immediately became nervous, war?Who are they going to fight with, and why are they pulling us in? See if this posture is going to use us as cannon fodder?But what can the four of us do?

A team of fighter planes roared past their heads, while the ranks of soldiers ran along with the armored troops, and supplies were piled up in some open spaces and were being loaded urgently. Team A had no idea that the base had become so lively. Everything happened without warning, as if it happened suddenly. Bud could clearly see that many vehicles had just been painted before they drove out of the garage.

What particularly puzzled him was the tracked vehicle that resembled a tank. on the chassis.Leaving aside the small gun barrel with a caliber of about [-] mm, what surprised the professional mechanic, Bud, was the driver's cab protected by glass in front of the tank. It seemed that the crew of this tank would not exceed one person, but unexpectedly With such an obvious weakness exposed, Wei'an's centaur tank is more reasonable than this design!

And that barrel on the side, how can it be kept stable when firing?If it is because of the efficient stabilization system, wouldn't it be much more effective to build a tank with a central turret?

Black Hand rudely interrupted Bud's confusion: "Don't just stand there, go!"

It's not just Bud, in fact, on the other side, there is also a person who is madly complaining about the Scorpio tank.Even though, or because of wearing an emotional suppressor, Olivia's words became sharper, Li De, who was next to her, couldn't speak at all, and was suffering from a headache and didn't know how to explain it.

"Look at the fraternity now. Not only has the technology been lost during my 25 years of sleep, but the intelligence of our tech personnel has also degenerated significantly. Look what this is? It's a stretch to call it a tank Well, I prefer to call it a cockroach, yes, leader, please tell me, did the brotherhood send this kind of cockroach to be trampled to death by GDI?"

The silver-haired woman said a lot of irony in one breath. In her era, the fraternity could compete with GDI face to face, especially in terms of technology. The current situation really makes her a little bit unbearable. .

"Okay, Olivia." Li De habitually pulled the brim of his military cap to hide his gaze. He leaned on an APC armored vehicle to watch the troops gathering in the base, and occasionally glanced at Ollie. Via.Olivia changed into a tight-fitting fur coat today and stepped on her iconic high heels. Looking at it from the side, her bumpy figure is so eye-catching.

This at least has a D...

"As a medium-sized tank, the Scorpion weighs no more than 85 tons and can reach a speed of [-] kilometers per hour. It is a weapon for blitzkrieg. It is not used to face-to-face with the enemy's main battle tanks. General, it is used to support infantry That's what it does...Of course, I also think the design of the cab is stupid. This may be because Scorpio's opponents are all armored vehicles. You should ask Maxion this question, although he is dead. " Li De said, he got up from the side of the armored vehicle and walked to Olivia, but the latter moved a step to the side.

The current Olivia is really not interesting at all.

"If you want to say that it is enough for now, then I have nothing to say." Olivia said coldly, "The armor, fighter planes, and Brotherhood's armaments are completely behind GDI, not as good as yours." Give me command of the standing army, and I'd rather join GDI than be a guerrilla captain."

"There is no standing army yet, General, but we are also capable of providing you with some GDI armored units...Of course, I promise you that after this battle, we will update your arsenal."

"You mean the one in front of you?" Olivia pressed the computer on the arm armor, and a holographic light curtain was projected in front of the two of them.This is a map, and the enemy and the enemy are represented on the map with square marks.The fraternity is a small patch, and the black blob keeps spreading like a virus.

Three hours ago, the Brotherhood's transport plane took off to the homeless camp, but it was attacked by orcs on the way-a large group of unknown flying creatures intercepted the transport plane and caused a little damage, and then the Venom fighter formation arrived in time to drive them away. A group of orcs flew units, but the scan of the fighter plane found that more orcs were marching underground, and the target was the base.

Li De had already discovered the traces of the orc army in the mountains before. These orcs seemed to be assembled in an underground network under the mountains, but they had not effectively judged their target point.After receiving the alarm, Olivia's aviation brigade dispatched urgently and dropped multiple seismic wave sensing devices between the base, the ruins of Orton City and the mountains. The information collected showed that an unknown number of orcs were advancing.

If it was the day before yesterday, these orcs could be called a huge threat before the Brotherhood's legion was established, but right now, whether it is Olivia's Black Hand Legion or Reed's Smart Control Legion, they are already sure to win, Olivier Ya deliberately formulated a proactive strategy. In addition to teaching the orcs a lesson, by the way, it also wanted to show the strength of the Brotherhood to the security government who was hiding thousands of miles away and watched here with satellites, and declared the Brotherhood's official status to the world through a war. debut.

This also shows the attitude of the security government. The Brotherhood is not interested in dealing with them right now.The period of secrecy was over, and the second base had begun to be built, and it would be officially operational in a few days at the production rate of the Brotherhood.Olivia was very confident about this, and asked to take over the overall command of this battle, and Li De's intelligent control army was not allowed to dispatch.

It seems that her meddling last time really made her very unhappy.

"The enemy's main force is fifty kilometers away, and the striker is already close to the edge of Orton City." Olivia turned off the holographic image, and an assault motorcycle was parked beside her. She stepped on the vehicle, started the engine, and the modified motorcycle lit up. Turn on the headlights.

"The war is about to start, so I won't accompany you. If you want to take those security soldiers to the front line to observe, please feel free. I have to organize the front line."

The motor of the motorbike roared, and Olivia flung her silver hair away, leaving only Li De standing there watching and sighing.

"Should I have another chance to talk to you, Olivia?"

Chapter 68 For Freedom

"Shit! Bud, it's that man!"

Cole and the others subconsciously took a step back, and the escorted apostles pushed them back.Black Hand came forward and knelt down to Li De on one knee:

"My lord, the prisoner has been brought, and it is at your disposal!"

Li De stepped forward holding the chainsaw sword, and the apostles bowed their knees one after another, but Bud stood stubbornly on the spot. Although he couldn't see his face, it was obvious that he wanted to kill or cut whatever he wanted, and he would never kneel down. There.As soon as Li De waved his hand, the black hands got up immediately, and two apostles came out from behind the APC armored vehicle carrying the weapon box, opened it, and it was a complete set of firearms.

The GD2 assault rifle is GDI's regular equipment, and there is nothing special about it. However, Li De used it to integrate more information equipment. It has upgraded smart ammunition, and it is far more efficient than old-fashioned weapons. In terms of charge, 5.56 The caliber armor-piercing incendiary bomb still uses a 30-round magazine, and a shotgun is attached to it.The gun's holographic indicator connects to the optics of the eyepiece, and more importantly, the gun's self-locking system recognizes the target the gun is pointing at, and the identification module prevents any bullets from hitting the Brotherhood fighter.

Some may be disappointed, but Reed really didn't let the Armory design a new gun.From a practical point of view, it is an unchanging truth that the bullet determines the gun. As long as it is a live ammunition rather than a new directed energy weapon, then modern firearms are essentially no different from the big bolts pulled a hundred years ago.Perhaps it is not impossible to design a new weapon with a faster rate of fire, more precision, and better ergonomics, but Li De is not interested in spending time testing a new weapon, which is still a consumable rifle. GD2 itself is a weapon with excellent performance, and it can share ammunition with the weapon of the apostle, and it is not as easy to jam as Wei'an's cavalry style. (Perfect reloading? It is obvious that it is easy to get stuck without experience 2333)

This is the second time Li De met them. The last time Olivia threatened them and threw them into NOD's hands, intending to shake their psychological defense.However, the sudden war did not give them much time to do ideological work, and Li De thought of a better idea.

Li De issued a command to their armor, and their visors were pulled off by a docking device on the breastplate, revealing the faces of several people.Meeting their hostile eyes, Li De pointed at them one by one and said:

"Bud, born in a military academy, defected from UIR to Wei'an during the pendulum war, are you looking for justice in your heart, or a better future?"

"Cole, your past honor was torn to pieces by the orcs, and the prosperity of peace has come to naught. Did you join the army for revenge or for peace?"

...

Bud finally couldn't help it anymore: "What the hell do you want to do? Of course, I know I'm not qualified to ask, I'm just a prisoner, but you already know us so well, why are you still tossing us?"

"It's very simple." Li De took out a GD2 rifle from the weapon box and threw it to Bud. "Our goal is to eliminate the orcs. And you are all experienced fighters. I value this very much."

Firearms are not as difficult to master as combat armor. Bud took off the magazine, glanced at the red-painted ammunition and stuffed it back, and pulled the bolt: "You want us to fight for you? With orcs? Then what good do we have? ?”

The black hand snapped at him: "You have too many questions! This is the kindness of the leader. You have no choice but to accept it gratefully!"

"There are choices." Li De took out a data disc and waved it in front of Bud and the others, "Isn't the purpose of your trip just to investigate the intelligence of our base? Follow me and finish this game." It is yours. You can go back to work normally, meet your family and friends, we will not reveal your affairs, as long as you know how to lie."

"Such a good offer... I have no reason to refuse, right?" Bud sneered, "If we leak it, you can also convince the high-level that we have betrayed, and then we will be shot...We actually didn't No matter what, I can't escape your control."

Li De couldn't help applauding: "As expected of a high-achieving student, your brain turns faster than your teammates... That's right, you can either cooperate with us or be cooperated by us. But don't worry, you may not believe it when you tell us, we don't I have no interest in being your enemy, Wei An, on the contrary, the purpose of the Brotherhood is to fight to protect human beings, and we should be allies, not enemies."

Bud and the others gritted their teeth, and took the weapons handed over by the apostles—a rifle, ammunition pack, and a short combat knife.Although the chainsaw is no longer hanging under the barrel, the shotgun is also a suitable weapon.Bud pulled out the short knife from his left shoulder, touched the shiny edge with his hand to feel the sharpness of the blade, and shouted to Li De: "Good knife, but why don't you give me a sword like yours?"

Li Dela opened the door of the armored vehicle and went in first, without looking back, he shouted: "If you join our fraternity, then I can give you mine!"

"Now, all of Team A are on board, and you are now under my direct command. For the sake of freedom, obey orders, soldiers!"

...

At this moment, "Li De" in the vagrant camp is accompanying Wu Wei and the others to receive the gift from the Brotherhood.

A gift from the "Brotherhood" caused a sensation in the entire camp. Most of the men, women, and children here put down their work and rushed to the river bank. For a while, this place became a lively crowd, no matter how the guards drove them away. He also refused to leave.For homeless people who don't want to see tomorrow after today's day, they are most concerned about water and supplies. A little bit of external stimulation can easily be magnified after long-term depression. What's more, a good thing happened today for the first time!

An open space was cleared on the bank of Hexin Island, men and women were chatting non-stop, the topics were nothing more than "what is the brotherhood" and "the man in black next to the leader" and so on, and the people who followed Li De Although those people had not cleared their suspicions and regained their freedom, they were surrounded by the crowd and asked non-stop, but they themselves could not say anything.

At this moment, the crowd made way for a way—a group of guards wearing power armor opened a way, surrounded by Wu Wei and Li De, and walked through the gate of the camp to the open space.The tall Wu Wei looked around the crowd and shouted with a voice comparable to a tweeter: "Everyone, get behind the fence, this is an order!"

Li De stood next to him, watching the machine guns and a series of weapons erected around the fence stood up, and the guards looked nervously at the sky, both expecting and worried.The surrounding crowd was reprimanded by the guards to return to the camp. At this time, Brown, who was surrounded by the crowd, took advantage of the air to break through the blockade, and kept calling Li De before being pulled back by the guards:

"Li De! Why didn't you tell us earlier? Anna shouldn't have gone... She shouldn't have gone!"

Li De looked at Brown apologetically, but he didn't reply because there were more important things to do right now.Wu Wei patted him on the shoulder and pointed to a black dot that appeared on the edge of the skyline.

"It's a transport plane... Your equipment design is really interesting, four-rotor helicopter?" Wu Wei glanced at the transport plane from a distance with his unusual eyes, but——

"What's going on? There are fighter jets... Orcs! They're Ravagers!"

Chapter 69 From the Sky

"What exactly is going on?!"

Wu Wei was startled and angry, for a moment he thought that Li De had broken the treaty, but when he saw the orc, he suddenly realized that there might be unexpected troubles coming.And Li De pressed the communicator next to his ear immediately before he ran away, and at the same time turned the radio on to the external mode, pretending that he didn't know it at all.

"Transport team, this is Colonel Li De, report your situation, repeat, report your situation!" (I won't add over every sentence)

"Received, Colonel! This is the second detachment of the Legion Aviation Brigade. We are about to arrive at the target location. Please make a signal mark. The transport plane is about to land!"

"What happened to the escort formation, and what happened to the orcs following you?"

"They're intercepting the orc air force, Colonel. When the formation flew over the mountains, they suddenly appeared and exchanged fire with the escort fleet. There were no casualties on our side, but the orcs came after our fleet... Colonel, please put the signal marker , the transport plane is about to land, repeat, the transport plane is about to land!"

A smoke bomb was thrown into the center of the open space by Li De, and a wisp of yellow smoke floated into the sky to guide the transport plane to gradually lower its altitude and approach the island.As the transport plane descended, a huge shadow covered the sky above everyone's heads. The four turbofan engines made deafening roars, and the huge wind pressure oppressed the crowd to keep retreating.

At this moment, Wu Wei suddenly shouted:

"Oops! It's a predatory beast!"

I saw two floating octopus-like creatures suddenly drilled out of the orc flying creatures that were circling with the escort fleet and escaped the interception of the Venom fighter. Under the command of the two orcs sitting behind them, their tentacles spit out a series of Using compressed air, it turned a corner in the air and swooped down towards the transport plane at an incredible speed!Li De was amazed when he saw it—such a violent movement can increase the instantaneous overload to about 7 G, God knows how those orc pilots in open-top planes can withstand it!

The transport plane is still descending. Once the transport plane with a total weight of hundreds of tons and a large amount of munitions falls, it may cause devastating consequences.All this was far from what he expected, and now Li De was unarmed, so anxiously he shouted on the radio: "Damn, the escort formation, the transport plane is under threat, we need support here!"

Two plundering beasts swooped down from the sky, "swish, swish", a series of rockets rushed towards the transport plane with a long tail flame.At this time, the heavy machine gun on the fence fired, and the bullets rained aimlessly into the sky. The predator made a sharp turn in the air and easily avoided the round of shooting.

The screeching sound of rockets had already reached his ears. At this moment, Wu Wei snatched the Gatling machine gun from a bodyguard, picked up the six-barreled heavy artillery, and pressed the switch to the bottom.

Full fire!What is he going to do?

Gatling's gunshots were too dense to be fully heard, and there were even fewer people like Wu Wei who dunked the machine gun to the end.The muscles of this tough guy have already swelled up, his lower body is firmly on the ground, and as the muzzle of the Gatling gun draws a slight arc from right to left, he shoots forward in just a few seconds- The ammunition boxes of the power armor soldiers are all empty!

"Boom boom boom!"

The bullet rain completely covered the trajectory of the rockets and exploded them all in the air. The violent explosion blew up a strong wind, and the fuselage of the transport plane was shaken, but at this time the support frame had completely landed, and the plane landed safely!

Silence, deathly silence, this shocking scene shocked everyone, even Li De wanted to take a breath.Although he can do this kind of thing by himself with the computer's computing power, his evaluation of Wu Wei has added a lot of weight in his heart.He looked over and saw that Wu Wei was throwing the machine gun back to the soldier, and turned around to find another man's machine gun.

At this time, Padek climbed up to the fence and held a machine gun with his own hands: "Be careful, they are coming again!"

The two plundering beasts in the air turned around again, but were stopped by the dense barrage fired from the ground. The machine guns on the fence fired into the sky in turn to suppress the plundering beasts' dives. While firing, they sent each other the following message:

"Our supplies are all on the plane, don't let them fire rockets!"

At this time, a reply came from the radio: "Colonel, leave this to us!"

The whistling sound of the engine came from the head, and a black and red Venom fighter had already left the melee fleet, climbed to an altitude of several hundred meters above the camp, and locked on the head of the predator.These plundering beasts have strange maneuverability, and the Venom fighter has no interest in dog-fighting them, but adopts the tactics of the U.S. military "Hellcat" against the Zero fighter.

Have you seen my palm technique that descended from the sky?

The Venom fighter's external 25mm cannon can freely turn around a 25-degree angle, and the airborne radar locks on to the predatory beast that is circling around and doing erratic evasive movements. A series of short bursts sprinkle a scorching tracer barrage Chasing the trail of the looting beast, the speed of the looting beast maneuvered by compressed air is too different from the sensitivity of the sighting system of the Venom fighter. The [-]mm caliber tracer bullet caught up with its round balloon-shaped body, as if it had been pierced. A cloud of brown-yellow mist exploded in the sky like a balloon.

"Swish, whoosh", the second looting beast turned around and climbed upwards. It gave up its evasion and rushed towards the fighter plane in a daze. The three-beast cannon pressed the trigger to the bottom, "da da da", the double-barreled parallel machine gun spit out a dense rain of bullets. These 7.62 caliber bullets that are not special warheads hit the light alloy shell of the Venom fighter like rain hitting plantains. Hear it.

The turbine engines installed on the short transverse wings on both sides of the fighter plane turned at an angle. Under the effect of the tail vector engine, the venom made a horizontal movement in the air to avoid these rockets that might not hit the head, and the machine gun spewed flames. In the hail of bullets, the Predator and the two drivers on its back were beaten into pieces of flesh, and the blood and corpses fell into the river, splashing bright red spray.

"Colonel, the airspace is safe, and this aircraft is about to return to the formation. Please be careful, the orc army has already started to move."

"Well done, soldier! But what about the orc army you speak of?"

At this time, the cargo compartment of the transport plane was slowly placed on the ground by the crane on the belly, and the eight standard cargo boxes were painted with the emblems of ammunition and rations.The cockpit of the transport plane was opened, and a pilot wearing a tight-fitting anti-G suit walked out of the cabin with a saboteur, who was still carrying a box.

The pilot came to Li De and saluted: "Colonel, the leader wants to talk to you and the leader of this camp!"

Chapter 70 First meeting, Your Excellency!

The leader of the Brotherhood, but finally this behind-the-scenes figure appeared.

Wu Wei quickly simulated many possible outcomes in his mind, but for this unknown brotherhood leader, he found that he actually didn't have much capital to negotiate on an equal footing.Wu Wei is not blind, the opponent's strength is only showing the tip of the iceberg, right now this air force fleet is only a small part?

The threat was cleared, the transport plane was safe, Wu Wei gave an order, and the guards led by Padek rushed to the cargo box under the belly of the transport plane with the prepared transportation tools.The cargo boxes were opened one by one, and the crowd cheered enthusiastically—the guns, ammunition, and even heavy weapons such as rocket launchers were all available, and there were also a lot of food and medicine that they were more concerned about.Li De did not lie to them, and according to the agreement, this was only the first batch of assistance.

The guards held guns to maintain order to prevent looting, but the order of the camp was polished quite well by Wu Wei, and people happily lined up to transport supplies to their strongest warehouse.While the vagrants were busy, Wu Wei and Li De and their group avoided the crowd and reached the edge. The guy wearing a full chemical protective suit, whose face was invisible, put the box on the ground and activated a device.

"It's a holographic image again." Wu Wei muttered, he straightened his posture slightly, and watched the projector turn on. Unlike expected, there was no human image, but a red and black "Eye of Truth".

Li De put his legs together and raised his hands, and saluted "myself": "I salute you, my leader. Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life, and the first batch of supplies has arrived safely."

"Relax, Colonel, you've done a good job." The pattern jumped, and issued a cold electronic voice without any emotional fluctuations, exactly the same as the watchman, "You will continue to stay in the camp as a representative of the Brotherhood, waiting for arrangements ..."

"Then, pay attention to your own safety, Colonel." After accepting the brief order, Li De retreated in response. He intentionally left Wu Wei in front of the light curtain, the pattern jumped, and turned to Wu Wei and said.

"You are the leader of the camp, Wu Wei? I have received information about you, which is amazing. Regardless of your past, Colonel Li De has a high evaluation of your ability. I am gratified to be able to talk to compatriots who are also from Earth. , whether it is the same world or not, our thoughts are with the earth."

Wu Wei hugged his hands on his chest. He had been paying attention to the 'leader' of this brotherhood just now. Although this machine-soul existence was just a projection, it gave him a very different feeling.Wu Wei has dealt with AI before. Human beings don't have his quick logic, and AI doesn't care about humanity as much as he does.

But no matter what, the other party has already found him, so Wu Wei stood up straight and replied: "That's right, it's me, the first time we meet, the leader of the Brotherhood? On behalf of the 700 people here, I thank you for coming A helping hand in this time of crisis, but... do you have a simpler address, this is really awkward."

"The title is meaningless. As the leader of the fraternity, I don't need unnecessary honors, so you can do whatever you want. Then, Wu Wei, according to the contract between Colonel Li De and you, we will continue to give you assistance. In exchange, I want you to come to the Brotherhood's base when this is over, we desperately need people like you."

The words of the "leader" were fast and not sloppy, and Wu Wei also showed his energy, his expression became solemn, and he said righteously: "I am a soldier, and I am not good at beating words, my lord, then I will Straight up."

"Since your organization shows sincerity and thinks highly of me, the leader of the homeless, I will not find excuses to shirk. I will come, but it must be in my camp completely safe, after all the supplies are in place, then I will I will visit your organization with this Colonel Li De. Please forgive me, as the leader of the camp, I have to be responsible for more than 700 people under me."

When Wu Wei said these words, the guards and soldiers around him all excitedly wanted to stop their leader, and some volunteered: "General...Boss, you are our backbone, where are you going? We'll go there! Leader of the Brotherhood, I'm willing to replace our leader, I'm an engineer, technically I..."

Wu Wei stopped the excited soldiers: "Don't mess around! The brotherhood will look for me because I have all the technical details of the Magma company... You already know this, my lord? In the previous I inadvertently got a glimpse of your ability during the offense. To be honest, I, Wu Wei, feel ashamed. With the strength of your organization, it is easy to kill us, and now you treat us with courtesy. I don’t have any other requirements. , I only hope to ensure the safety of my subordinates and these civilians."

"Please forgive the offense, Your Excellency. I, Wu Wei, have fought all my life. They followed me from the earth to Thira. They have had enough crimes, but I can't pay for it. There is no condition for these technologies to stay in my mind. Now, as long as you abide by the promise, I am willing to give you the full amount."

The pattern shook after Wuwei finished speaking, which was a precursor to speaking. For some reason, there was a hint of approval in the cold electronic voice.

"Your warriors are loyal and brave. Such brotherhood is also the spirit of my brotherhood, and it is far from offensive."

The electronic voice rarely slowed down the speed of speech, making it even more difficult to distinguish whether it is a human or a machine: "And your request is not too much, fearless, the agreement is always valid, and I sincerely hope that these materials can help you. Protecting human beings is the belief of the Brotherhood. These vagrants are also within the scope of our obligations. You don't have to worry about other things. As for supplies, unfortunately, as you can see, the orcs launched an attack. We will continue to provide them after this battle is over. "

At this moment, Li De took a step forward: "Leader! We were also attacked by orcs just now, and the information I got didn't inform me that I would be attacked. May I ask what we should do next? Are the orcs planning to attack the camp?" ? I am worried that if it is really an army of orcs, it will be difficult to maintain it with the strength of the camp alone."

"Colonel, no matter whether the orcs will attack you or not, you must help defend the camp." The box under the projector opened automatically, and it turned out to be a complete set of guns and weapons. "General Olivia has led the troops to launch an attack. There will be news soon, before then your mission will remain the same!"
