From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars.

Chapter 101 Gathering together

Commander Adam's "persuasion to surrender" on the public channel continued. Based on Lilith's analysis of the signal source after accessing the communication module of the communication relay vehicle, it was roughly determined that this speech to persuade him to surrender should come from a certain ship in outer space orbit.

"This guy was actually picked up?"

Amber was still a little surprised to learn that this guy had left the surface of Robert IV.

It seems that the empire still values ​​the former No. 1 figure in Yassin Base quite seriously?

When the space elevator is unavailable, the only thing the Imperial fleet has that can carry out this kind of transportation is the aerospace transport fleet.

Apparently they arranged a transport plane to complete the task of delivering troops and picked Adam up specially.

The federal ground offensive forces also blocked this public channel after starting the operation.

Although the commotion had not yet arisen, it was quickly suppressed.

But it is inevitable that some soldiers with unstable minds may really be bewitched after listening to it for a long time, which may lead to unexpected situations.

In the past few days when the federal army arrived in the city to ambush the civilians in Jabra City, all they could run away.

In the huge urban area, there are only a few residents left who really have nowhere to go.

So when the federal troops quickly passed through Jabra City and headed to the base area of ​​the space elevator, they only felt that the streets everywhere seemed unusually quiet.

There were only reconnaissance drones constantly in the sky, falling in the sudden burst of fire, dragging black smoke.

The accompanying air defense forces of both the Federation and the Empire were frantically hunting each other's drone units, especially those small drones that did not fly very high or fast. Basically, they were all accurate.

The commanders of the drone units on both sides watched with pain as the number of drones in their troops' reserves became less and less, but they still gritted their teeth and ordered the release of new units to replace the downed drones.

This is just like in a real-time strategy game, no matter how tight the resources are, you still have to save money to create reconnaissance units and maintain control of the field of vision.

The importance of vision is self-evident.

"Major Randall, are you sure there is no problem with your information?"

Amber, who was sitting in the communication relay vehicle and followed the team's rapid advance, looked at Randall's mark on the map of the base area and asked with some uncertainty.

"Of course there will be no problem. Amber, don't you still believe me?"

Major Randall patted the silicon carbide armor plate on his chest somewhat exaggeratedly.

"Although I am the combat command officer on duty at the military port, I still know the structure and configuration of the entire space elevator very well. You have to believe in my professionalism."

"It's not that I don't believe you." Amber shook her head.

"It's just that it's hard for me to imagine that there will be a backup HCP available in the base area."

"Oh, Amber, you are really my big brother, so don't worry!"

According to Major Randall, there is a spare HCP Gnaku in Area 4 of the base area.

On weekdays, these Gana libraries store three MTA-2A5 'Steppenwolf' HCPs, as well as supporting weapons, equipment, and ammunition.

Under normal circumstances, this backup gran library will not be activated, because it was built to allow federal forces to obtain HCP support on the space elevator in an emergency.

Among the managers of the entire space elevator and military port, only a few people have the authority to open this spare gnaku.

Major Randall is one of them. So at the combat meeting, Randall informed Lieutenant Colonel Dallas and others about the existence of this Gnaku.

They immediately decided that they must capture this place, obtain the HCP reserves inside, and assist the troops in launching subsequent attacks.

For this reason, Lieutenant Colonel Dallas and the commander of the federal force from the Southern Continent stuffed the few mechanics in the team who knew how to prepare the HCP, as well as the only two new pilots who could fly the HCP, into the safety team. In Po's commando team.

Just when Amber and Randall were about to discuss the details of the route to the past, news came from the vanguard - they had exchanged fire with imperial forces.

"Zi Bing!"

"boom!"

"Target hit! Destruction confirmed!"

Looking at the zoom screen of the tactical visor, a hole was punched out and the armored vehicle burst into flames.

This imperial orbital paratrooper who belonged to the fire team immediately called to his comrades beside him, lifted the portable electromagnetic gun on the table in front of the window with a tripod, and retreated towards the inside of the room.

Almost at the same time they left the window, a burst of 40mm armor-piercing incendiary bombs was accurately poured into the room.

For a time, gravel and sawdust were flying everywhere, and flammable items such as curtains and furniture were also set alight.

"Get out, get out, we can't stay here anymore! Move to the third attack point!"

"Attention everyone, Group C has engaged the enemy and is in the process of being transferred. Pay attention to identification!"

The three-person team carried the electromagnetic gun and the capacitor respectively and ran out of the back door of the building in a hurry.

At the same time, the sounds of crossfire were also heard from other parts of the street.

Like a few drops of water in a smoking pot of oil, the neighborhood between federal and imperial forces instantly became lively.

The infantry units deployed on this line come from the 'Blood Dragon Regiment' led by Viscount Ankarin, who has a close relationship with Amber.

During the battle between Yasin Base and the Nameless Forest, this noble force that passed Amber twice was picked up by an incoming air and space transport plane.

He was also accompanied by Lieutenant Rudolph of the Marine Corps Special Operations Group under the Eighth Expeditionary Strike Group.

Amber, who was almost temporarily breached at that time, was dismantled by the pilot and HCP. After returning to the fleet, he lay in the sanatorium for several days.

And this time, as the only combatant who had directly fought against Amber and survived, Lieutenant Rudolph was not surprised to be arranged to participate in this battle.

He even applied for it on his own initiative.

After being replaced with a new aircraft specially designed for psykers, he was airdropped again along with the Blood Dragons to supplement the Imperial forces near the space elevator.

Currently, he and the other HCPs of the Blood Dragon Regiment are staying in the attack assembly area, waiting for the federal and imperial forces to engage in firefights across the board, and then support each front according to the judgment of the battlefield commander.

However, Rudolph is an exception. He will not participate in regular battles. Instead, he will wait until he discovers Amber's figure and execute the 'Anti-Psychic Operation'.

Destiny is like an invisible web. In the process of continuous interweaving, all these people who have an "indissoluble bond" with Amber are gathered near the space elevator.

Commander Adam, Viscount Ankarin and his Blood Dragons, and Lieutenant Rudolf, who almost died at Amber's hands and was eager for revenge.

Of course, there must be someone who hates Amber with all his heart.
