Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 136 The Battle of Despair
"30 seconds to prepare."

Glancing at Lin Feng, Yang Yi pulled down the visor of his helmet.

Although as warriors, Yang Yi and others don't need to use the "Warrior R" system, but for the sake of safety, everyone hides their true strength.

It's very simple, the action of the Silicon Magic Alliance to siege the outpost is extremely abnormal.

It is undeniable that Post 828 has very important strategic value, but it is of little value to the Human Federation, but not to the Silicon Magic Alliance.If the goal of the Silicon Magic Alliance is to occupy the 828 outpost, it will dispatch enough troops to destroy the defenders of the outpost as quickly as possible, instead of fighting a protracted war with the defenders.If the Silicon Charm Alliance is not aiming to capture the 828 outpost, it should directly destroy the outpost.

The battle, which lasted for days, was a problem in itself.

It was precisely after realizing this that Yang Yi decided to go to the outpost to find out.

"Five seconds to prepare!"

The airlock opened, and Yang Yi jumped out first, followed by Lin Feng, and Jackson and others also jumped out of the "Shadow" one by one.

Although Yang Yi didn't say it clearly, Jackson knew that the siege of the 828 outpost by the Silicon Magic Alliance's fleet was probably a conspiracy.If you haven't figured out the situation, ask for help from the theater command and let the theater command send a fleet to come, and you may be ambushed by the Silicon Magic Alliance.

In fact, this is also the reason why Yang Yi decided to hide his strength.

If the Silicon Charm Alliance is not calculating the fleet of the Human Federation, but a certain person, then Yang Yi and the others going to the outpost as soldiers are tantamount to throwing themselves into a trap.

Driven by the jet propulsion, Yang Yi and others quickly flew towards the post.

Although the "Warrior R" individual system is designed for ground combat, some additional capabilities can be obtained by installing additional equipment.In fact, in addition to individual weapons, the "Warrior R" system is a multifunctional backpack, all subsystems are integrated in the backpack, and additional devices are also installed on the backpack.For example, the individual jet propulsion is fixed on the backpack, allowing Yang Yi and the others to obtain limited flying capabilities.

Five thousand kilometers is not short, but it is not far away in space.

You know, the S-class battleship at the 828 outpost is ten kilometers long.

The battle is still going on, and there are violent explosions from time to time, and the vicinity of the outpost is full of blown debris.Compared with these fragments, Yang Yi and others looked very small.Even if the enemy is monitoring the situation near the outpost, they may not be able to find the eleven human fighters who are flying to the outpost at high speed.

At this time, the rear of the outpost, near the hangar.

It is said to be a hangar, but it is actually a semi-open area.

Although the space is huge, enough to accommodate thousands of space fighters, in peacetime, the military did not deploy space fighters at the frontier surveillance posts.It's not that space fighters are expensive, but that according to the armistice agreement signed at the beginning, offensive weapons and equipment are not allowed to be deployed in the demilitarized zone, and space fighters are included.Inside the huge hangar, there are only a few small patrol boats, to be precise, the patrol boats that have been blown up.

"Hold on, everyone, reinforcements are coming soon!" shouted, and the major officer continued to raise his gun and fire outside.

In fact, when the reinforcements will come, or even if they will come, the major officer himself does not know, it is just a lie to insist on fighting.

Under the fierce artillery fire of the enemy, the door of the hangar, the two-meter-thick door panel made of special alloy, had already been blasted into pieces.Although the energy barrier has not disappeared, it is already crumbling under the enemy's continuous shelling and may disappear at any time.

This is the last line of defense of the outpost. If the enemy breaks through, none of the officers and soldiers in the outpost will be spared.

However, Major Zheng Xiaolong didn't know how long he could last.

After being attacked five days ago, Colonel Qin Qiuming, the commander of Outpost 828, sent out a signal for help and told all officers and soldiers that the theater command will send a fleet over soon. All we have to do is to persevere and fight the enemy until reinforcements arrive. The moment of arrival.Unfortunately, the next day, when the outpost was surrounded by the enemy, Colonel Qin Qiuming was killed in the counterattack led by the Marine Corps.

The brutal battle lasted for five days and five nights. Major Zheng Xiaolong officially became the supreme commander of the outpost yesterday afternoon.

Before that, he was only a major officer in charge of logistics support, and he never thought of being able to become the supreme commander, let alone so quickly.

It's not that he's brave, it's not that he's powerful, and it's not that he volunteered, but that all the officers above him have died in battle.

Zheng Xiaolong was able to live until now, mainly because he stayed in the rear, responsible for delivering ammunition for the officers and soldiers fighting on the front line, and did not fight on the front line.

Will reinforcements arrive?

A huge landing ship approached, carrying thousands of enemies of the Silicon Magic Alliance, mainly humanoid rock demons.

Although this kind of enemy is similar to human beings and less than three meters tall, it is the most numerous and weakest unit in the Silicon Magic Alliance, but it is still very powerful in front of human fighters.Even with armor-piercing bullets, it is difficult to kill with one shot. If it is close combat, human fighters are even more difficult to fight against humanoid rock demons.

Seeing the landing ship, Zheng Xiaolong was helpless.

The main defensive weapon of the outpost has been destroyed by the enemy, and the electromagnetic guns and small-caliber machine guns in the hands of the soldiers cannot prevent the landing ship from approaching at all.Although the energy barrier can block all kinds of energy beams fired from the enemy warships, it cannot block the enemies who landed on the outpost.In the fighting in the past few days, most of the officers and soldiers killed in battle died in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, including several senior officers.

"Major!"

"Defend them all. If you retreat, you will die. If the enemy invades the post, we will all die!" Zheng Xiaolong was very scared, but he didn't show it, because at this time, all the officers and soldiers were looking at him. "Stay on the front line, even if you die, you must face the enemy and die."

"boom--"

The ground shook violently, and the enemy's landing craft crashed into the post.

Interferenced by the energy barrier, Zheng Xiaolong couldn't see clearly the enemies rushing down from the landing ship, but there must be quite a few of them, a large area covered in darkness.

On the battlefield, humanoid rock devils always win by numbers.

In this regard, it is very similar to the Human Legion.

The difference is that humanoid rock demons are better at melee combat.Although the Silicon Magic Alliance has also developed some projectile weapons similar to electromagnetic guns, they have not been popularized.It's not that the Silicon Charm Alliance doesn't have the corresponding technology, but that silicon-based life has a natural advantage in individual combat.

"Don't fire, follow my orders!"

Behind the gate, more than 100 officers and soldiers on the three lines of defense held their breath.

Zheng Xiaolong stared at the platform outside the energy barrier, his hand holding the electromagnetic gun was trembling slightly.Although five days ago, he was still a logistics officer in charge of managing materials, but now he is not only the supreme commander of the outpost, but also an experienced soldier.

Against the enemies of the Silicon Magic Alliance, the power of the electromagnetic gun is too small.

Because the energy barrier has a certain shielding ability, firing at the enemy through the energy barrier can hardly pose a threat to the enemy, and it is just a waste of ammunition.

On the platform outside, the landed humanoid rock demons formed a phalanx of ten hundred people.

However, it wasn't just the humanoid rock demons who landed.

"Major, what's that!?"

When the soldiers next to him shouted loudly, Zheng Xiaolong had already seen several extremely burly figures appearing in front of the phalanx of humanoid rock demons.

That is……

Armored Battle! ?
Zheng Xiaolong's eyes widened, and the hand holding the electromagnetic gun trembled even more.

That's right, it's Iron Armored Battle.

Ruined!
Zheng Xiaolong's facial muscles twitched a few times, and he unconsciously looked towards the deep space in the distance.

If only humanoid rock demons landed, they could still persist.Put the enemy in and fire at close range. The armor-piercing bullets fired by the electromagnetic gun can penetrate the enemy's body. Even if you can't kill it with one shot, the dense rain of bullets can turn the enemy into a hornet's nest, and then go up and chop off the enemy's head.No matter how tenacious the vitality of silicon-based life is, it will die without a head.It's just that the electromagnetic gun can't deal with the armored mad battle at all.

This kind of enemy with a height of more than five meters, or even ten meters, is a monster made of rocks, and its defense strength is equivalent to that of a heavy tank.Not to mention the electromagnetic guns used by soldiers, even small-caliber machine guns may not be able to penetrate the rocks covering the armored Berserker's body.

With the armored mad warrior opening the way in front, the humanoid rock devil can rush to the front and give full play to the advantages of melee combat.

In the face of a thousand humanoid rock demons approaching, let alone more than a hundred officers and soldiers, even if all the officers and soldiers in the outpost are here, it will not help.

Can we still fight this battle?
Zheng Xiaolong was desperate, and other officers and soldiers were no exception.

They are not afraid of death, as long as they can pose a threat to the enemy, even if it is only a small threat, they will persist in fighting.

The problem is that the weapons in their hands can't pose the slightest threat to the enemy at all.

This is not a fight, it's a slaughter!

In the face of rows of armored warriors, any resistance from them was meaningless.

Does such a battle still make sense?

It's just that they have no choice but to fight.

In 5000 years and five Greenwich Wars, neither side had a tradition of taking prisoners of war, let alone an interstellar convention to protect prisoners of war.

For Zheng Xiaolong and the others, surrender is to let the enemy slaughter them, and they will die miserably.

Although no one has personally experienced it, officers and soldiers all know that the enemy will treat captured human soldiers as snacks, and it is good to swallow them in one bite, and it is common to be torn into pieces.The reason is simple, silicon-based life, like carbon-based life, needs trace elements.For silicon-based life, the carbon-based life of human beings is a vitamin tablet.Even if the taste is not very good, it has high nutritional value.

The energy barrier shook a few times, a huge figure emerged, and then more huge figures.

"Major..."

"Get ready to fight!" Zheng Xiaolong stood up, since there is no way out, let's die in battle with honor. "Fire, fire all of them!"

The nearby officers and soldiers stood up one after another. Everyone was desperate, but no one ran away because there was nowhere to escape.

Better to die in battle than to be eaten alive by the enemy!
