Chapter 844： Battle of Alpine Springs (Part 1)

Chapter 844 The Battle of the Springs of the Alps (Part 1)

Prundt looked ugly because the war didn't go the way he expected.

According to his original plan, the defenders in the base only need to do one thing, and that is - support for three hours.

Reinforcements will arrive in three hours. At that time, a new Skrull-level force will join the battle, and the trend of the war will be reversed immediately!

But according to the current situation, the base is likely to be breached in less than three hours, which is why his face is so ugly.

In order to allow the defenders in the base to last for three hours, the Skrull Expeditionary Force made a lot of preparations before.

At present, there are 3 seventh-order practitioners and 50 sixth-order practitioners in the base.

Various defense facilities in the base, such as antimatter railguns, laser ray generators, psionic beam launchers, etc., have been stored for a long time and can exert maximum lethality.

Lanchi has calculated that if all the defense facilities are turned on to the maximum power at all costs, it will be no problem for the base to hold for three hours.

But who knows, this time the Blue Star humans seem to be too ferocious!

This time, the overall strength of the Blue Star cultivator was several times higher than last time.

The last time the Blue Star cultivator attacked the spring was about two months ago. At that time, except for Prime Minister Cao, there were only 5 people in the seventh rank, and only thirty or forty people in the sixth rank.

But this time, there are as many as 9 people in the seventh rank of Blue Star, Cat Chenxing, Su Yu, and Ailijie are all at the peak of the seventh rank, and there are more than 200 rank six practitioners!

And the morale of the Blue Star Tier 6 practitioners is still exceptionally high. On the one hand, they were provoked by Plante's provocation just now, and on the other hand, they were also in order to obtain a higher psionic energy quota.

The strength of the Blue Star cultivator is much stronger than expected, and this is the fundamental reason why their plan failed this time.

…

The only good news for the Skrulls may be that Morningstar the cat is running out of magic.

Cat Morning Star's [Star Rainbow Focus] skill consumes terrifying energy.

Although the light spot created by this skill can explode twice the damage, the energy will not be generated out of thin air. 75% of the extra double damage is from the "accumulation effect" of the light spot, and the other 25% requires Morningstar to use its own magic to fill.

So after the light spot of [Star Rainbow Focus] exploded dozens of times, the blue amount of Morningstar Cat was completely exhausted, and the Skrulls won some breathing time.

But even if Morningstar was out of combat, the base defense could not last for too long, and Plant in the sky knew what he had to do.

The prismatic light on the Prandtl's mecha exploded, temporarily forcing Prime Minister Cao back.

Taking this opportunity, he used voice transmission to contact the commander of the base, the seventh-order psionicist Skat.

"Skater, according to the current situation, the base should not be able to hold for three hours. You should inform the core members of the sixth-order and above in the base to be ready to retreat at any time."

"Scarter understands." The commander in the base who was struggling to support the force field shield replied.

Scarter glanced at the menacing Blue Star troop in front of him, and then glanced at the exhausted subordinate troop around him, and used voice transmission to convey orders to several core personnel around him.

Then he replied to Plante by voice transmission: "Lord Plante, I have given an order to start the self-destruction program of the base immediately.

When we abandon base 0008, all buildings and defensive weapons in the base will be automatically destroyed to avoid falling into the hands of the Blue Stars. "

Prandtl praised: "Well, you did a good job."

Scarter continued to ask the question: "Then Lord Prandtl, what should we do with officers and ordinary soldiers below the fifth rank?"

"This..." Plante thought for a while and replied, "Well, after the base fell, let them concentrate on the square, throw down their weapons and surrender. In order to make bullets for the anti-Union organizations, what do the Blue Stars like to do? Treat the prisoners kindly. '.

After they surrendered, it was enough to redeem them later when they had an opportunity. "

"clear."

After ended the voice communication with Prandtl, Commander Scart passed the order down through the officers of all levels in turn.

But in the process of conveying, some unexpected accidents happened.

Cultivators above level 6 do not have much response to orders. Now that the war is going on, they all know that they can't hold it for three hours, and they are ready to run away.

Anyway, the base is not far from the space crack.

But the officers and soldiers of the fifth rank and below immediately exploded, and the noise continued one after another.

Scart noticed the sudden commotion in the army, so he asked the adjutant Lekumansk who had just returned to his side: "Lykumansk, what's going on with the army below?"

Lykumansk just went to investigate the cause of the riot. Hearing the words, he immediately replied: "Commander, the army is not willing to surrender to the Blue Stars, so there is great dissatisfaction after the order is issued."

"Don't want to surrender? Impossible, right? What's the reason?" Commander Scarter looked at the army below in disbelief.

Scart and the army in the base belong to the Lunkert Alliance. The biggest feature of the Lunkert Alliance soldiers is that they take money to do things. They are not as fierce and fearless as the soldiers of the Sun Empire.

To be honest, most soldiers join the army because of high salaries, and they don’t think about “fighting for honor” or anything on the battlefield.

But now the soldiers refuse to surrender? What's going on here, they shouldn't have such a strong will to fight, right?

Adjutant Lekumansk quickly explained: "Commander, the main reason for this is the error in the previous propaganda caliber, which caused the soldiers to have a wrong perception of surrender."

"Propaganda caliber, what went wrong?"

"That's it..." Adjutant Lekumansk spent a lot of words to explain the reason for this situation.

Commander Scart listened and listened before he knew what was going on.

It turned out that this was mainly due to the fallacy of propaganda.

Scarter, Plant, and other senior officers knew that the Blue Stars would not mistreat the prisoners, and there would be no problem if they surrendered, but ordinary soldiers didn’t know it!

The news that ordinary soldiers received on weekdays was that "Blue Star people especially like to humiliate prisoners", "Only half of the soldiers from the Blue Star POW camp were able to come out alive, and those who came out were incomplete, with no arms or legs."

The soldiers see this kind of news every day, of course they will refuse to surrender the Blue Star human beings, which is also the reason for the current instability of the army.

The morale of the army is unstable, and the combat effectiveness naturally declines rapidly.

Su Yu and other Blue Star monks outside the force field shield didn't know what was going on inside, but they all found that the Skrull's defense ability had dropped slightly.

The Blue Star monks quickly seized this opportunity to launch a powerful attack.

Su Yu took out the [Hozen War God Statue] at the bottom of the press box.

The powerful boost is transformed into a huge amount of damage, smashing the force shield into cracks.
