Chapter 139

The zigzag terrain leading to wolf Valley is just ahead.

Except for the mercenary regiment, the other first and third army groups stopped. The reason for stopping is obvious.

In only one battle, the first group army has lost more than half of its people in this direction, with only about 1000 people remaining in a team of more than 5000, while the third group army has gathered about 18000 people in this direction, with about half lost and about 8600 remaining. The 78th regiment, under the greatest pressure, was not completely annihilated. There were more than 500 people left, but they were all wounded and unable to fight any more.

After burying the bodies of the dead soldiers, clearing the battlefield and sitting down for a rest, they found that the top commanders of the first group army and the third group army in this direction were absent! Whether these two people died or did not take this route, no one can tell the exact situation. After the collegiate discussion, we can only put it into the category of death in battle.

Another situation is the break time. The 78th regiment, which should have disappeared, was surrounded by people and asked what happened. The soldiers of the 78th regiment naturally had no need to hide. When they made public the news, everyone was in an uproar. It turned out that it was the people from the first operation group who fundamentally guided the fight that saved the team that was bound to die.

Due to the absence of generals, all the regimental and battalion officers became the top officers. All in all, the most important thing at present is not to continue to move forward, but to hold a meeting quickly to see what to do next. The meeting must sort out an overall strategic layout before it can continue to move forward. The mechanical Corps is very strong, and they work in their own ways. There is only one dead end.

Xin dengnian was seriously injured, but he insisted on attending the officers' meeting.

After this sum up, we are also surprised that there has been a mistake in this battle.

Before departure, the headquarters of the first group army and the third group army looked down on the enemy situation they would face in this battle, and did not expect to encounter such a large group of mechanical animals.

Looking down on the enemy's situation led the group army to adopt the strategy of small division and rapid advance when it set out. In addition, the former regular army of the military headquarters was good at positional warfare and was not familiar with mobile warfare at all. In this way, the situation is even worse. If there is no overall battlefield command, then the remaining 10000 people are about to go forward, and they are going to die on their own, As long as the mechanical forces make another ambush in front of them, the first group army and the third group army will be completely annihilated when they attack wolf Valley in this direction.

In this way, there is no discussion at all. Only by temporarily adapting and gathering all the forces into one fist can we continue to move forward. After all, no one wants to die. And there is no rest time for adaptation.

"I suggest! Temporarily, members of the first special operation group will serve as the general staff of our army! " Xin dengnian proposed to the silent people. It's not a trivial matter to reorganize the army. However, in the current situation, we have to cut the mess quickly and solve the most important issues first. Other issues can be dealt with later and decision-making can be decentralized. All the officers present were regiment and battalion level officers. No one was a fool. Naturally, they knew the importance of unified orders.

"How can that be?" Some people exclaimed that all those who attended the meeting were undead regimental commanders, battalion commanders or deputy officers. A total of twenty-eight people, counting carefully, said that they were regimental commanders of ordinary appearance and medium size.

"Why not?" Xin dengnian asked.

"When can the special operations team take charge of the affairs of the group army? They are all members of small-scale combat groups and have no experience in commanding large-scale wars. How can they command a team of more than 1000 people? We are now facing about 10000 people in h535 valley. A commander can decide the lives of 10000 people. How can we let a small team of people command? What's more... The members of the special operations team are not from the regular army system. The cooperation between the two different systems is OK. If they are confused and misdirected, no one will survive! "

"Well, commander Wei objected. Let me ask you three questions. First, what is our task this time? Second, in terms of the war damage ratio, who has the least command loss at present? Third, who would you like to listen to now? " Asked Xin dengnian.

"This..." Wei Feng hesitated for a moment, but thought about it. Now that everyone has put their lives together, naturally there is nothing unspeakable, so he replied: "this mission is something buried underground in the unknown base of h535 valley. The headquarters said that it is a dormant mechanical warrior. If we can get him, we can understand the mechanical city to a great extent, So as to open the road to victory against the mechanical city! "

"The second question..." he hesitated and calculated. It seems that in the battle just now, except for the action team, only the mercenaries had a smaller battle loss ratio. But the mercenaries have already run away, and they don't look up to the soldiers of the regular army. As for the third question, he could not answer it at all.

Most people were silent when they saw that he was stuck. This is a decision-making. If the people elected are not suitable, they will lose their lives. No one dares to talk big.

Xin dengnian lost one arm, and his life was only half lost. He said in a quick voice: "commander Wei also said that the order we received this time is to seize the buried things in the unknown base of h535 Valley, which is related to the outcome of the whole war. Since the military headquarters says so, and we are soldiers, we must carry out the order of the military headquarters to the end! So we have no way back! "

"As for the second question, I am a witness. If there is a 78 regiment whose battle damage ratio is lower than mine, I will immediately stand up and support him as our chief of staff!"

No one spoke. Everyone was watching.

"The second question is unanswered. The third question, if you agree that Wu Niu of the special operations team will command the battle, please raise your hand!" Xin dengnian's voice fell, and no one spoke. Everyone was watching, but no one raised his hand, only he raised his hand. After thinking about it, Xin dengnian asked again, "well, if you don't agree that Wu Niu of the special operations team will command this battle, please raise your hand!"

No one raised his hand.

Xin dengnian was a little angry and funny, and said: "no one objected, then... Agreed! Well, it shouldn't be too late. Let's start the reorganization now. "

Five hours later, when it was almost dark, the reorganized mixed Legion approached wolf valley. In the distance, there were fireworks burning at the mouth of the valley, which were the bodies of mercenaries who had fallen to the ground all the way.

From the hilly area to here, more than 100 kilometers of road, the mercenary's body has not been broken. The third man estimated that there had been tens of thousands of people lost, but Wu Niu said in a deep voice: "about 15000 people. Some of the bodies were blown to pieces by the batteries of the particle cannons. " The bodies of the mercenaries are covered with the remains of many mechanical animals. It seems that the mechanical forces also suffered heavy losses.

The power of the battery explosion of the particle gun is nothing to the mechanical beast, but once it explodes after being attacked, its lethality in the crowd is not much different from that of a heavy artillery shell.

They could not help sinking in their hearts. Although the mercenaries used war to make money, they didn't abide by discipline, and their character was not very good, after all, they died in the war against the mechanical city. People could not help but admire their sacrifice. In this campaign, no matter what the purpose is, many soldiers in the regular army do not have to lose their lives on this dangerous road because of the desperate efforts of these people. In a sense, this is exactly what our comrades in arms have done.

Niu Er estimated the battle damage ratio briefly. He thought that the battle damage ratio of the mercenary regiment was not low, about 5:1, but for mobile operations, the battle damage ratio was very low!

"Officer Wu! Look! Over there A commander pointed to the top of the mountain under a cloud in the sky and cried.

What is it? As you look in the direction of the commander's finger, there is a huge spaceship. The lights on the spaceship are shining, just like a city floating in the air!
