I Became A Mech Soldier After Waking Up in The Future.

Chapter 82 - Colonel Rajeev's Choice

Swarm Tide!

Rajeev hurriedly grabbed the new binocular from the scout's hand, looked below the city wall, and saw a massive swarm of predators and zergs, as horrifying as dark clouds before a thunderstorm, approaching the city gate at an alarming speed.

He could even see some aquatic zergs and predators emerging from the moat.

'Oh, Praise the Nine Gods! Praise the Ione! Even God help me too!' 

Rajeev suddenly burst into maddening laughter and seized the last ten seconds to give the last command of his life. 

"All artillery on the wall!" 

"First group reload!" 

"Second group reload!" 

"...." 

"....locking target!" 

"Energy storage is over!" 

"Countdown to fire..." 

"Three, two, one! Fire!" 

The next moment, "Boom!"

All 50 electromagnetic railguns lined up at the top of the wall bombarded the incoming swarm simultaneously. The electromagnetic railguns were extremely powerful with a long attack range. When it was being shot, the booming sound produced in the process could severely damage an ordinary person's hearing sense. 

"That bastard actually opened fire!" Sistine bellowed furiously. 

"It's a swarm tide! The swarm tide is coming!" A soldier staggered to report. 

"Jeanne! No, I'm going to save her. Open the city gate immediately!" Sistine roared while grabbing General Frode. 

General Frode didn't bother answering and just punched him directly in the stomach, knocking Sistine down on his knee. His hand covered his stomach, his veins burst out, and he couldn't breathe for a long time.

"Boy, I know what to do! I don't need you to tell me what to do!" shouted General Frode in a low voice.

Immediately, he took over the highest command authority of the City Guards at the fastest speed.

For this operation, Caral actually transferred 5,000 out of 10,000 city guards to suppress the 2,000 members of the Third Squadron as soon as they entered the city. 

"All soldiers heed my order! This is the highest authority's order. Stop the shelling immediately!" 

"I repeat it for the last time, this is the highest authority order, stop the shelling immediately! Violators will be killed on the spot for treason!" 

He immediately gave a secret order to his own bodyguards, "Capture Rajeev immediately! Anyone who helps him resist or escape should be killed on the spot!" 

The sound of the cannon stopped quickly; the artillerymen on the wall looked bewildered.

A young soldier asked his superior with a pale face, "What happened? The swarm was about to reach the city wall. Why can't we shoot at them?" 

His officer sweated profusely and scolded, "Shut up! Watch your mouth!" 

Although he still had a scruple in his heart, the young soldier didn't argue anymore and just zipped his mouth off.

Meanwhile, General Frode was currently weighing his options on how to secure the people outside, or at least to be able to ensure Jeanne's safety.

Opening the gate wasn't an option right now.

The insect tide was coming, and opening the city gate was tantamount to welcoming them into the city to commit slaughter.

A helicopter would have to be used to save the nine people on the suspension bridge.

He needed someone to stall the time before he could finish the rescue.

"Captain Amanda, get ready for your man to deploy immediately for rescue. We have three cranes stationed on the city wall near the drawbridge, so you can only prepare six mecha at most. After that, you and Sistine can follow me in the helicopter to pick up the survivor. Select some personnel to go with us."

Frode immediately turned around and rushed towards the apron where the armed escort helicopter was located.

"Yes!" Amanda replied immediately, and then quickly opened the communication channel for the third squadron. 

"Lieutenant Lu Diyun! Lieutenant Stacy Valentine! Second Lieutenant Seol-Hyun Ae! Second Lieutenant Lilian Croft! Second Lieutenant Leoz Silverburg! The five of you will be immediately deployed outside the gate. This mission will be very dangerous as you need to buy us time to rescue the survivor, and you might even lose your life. I'm not going to be unreasonable. If you want to forfeit this mission, I won't blame you."

After a few moments of silence, Captain Amanda continued, "I take your silence as a confirmation. Now get ready for your post! And don't forget to bring Second Lieutenant Lee's personal mecha with you; she might need it."

"Yes, Ma'am!" The five people's responses came immediately, like a beast that had been suppressed for a long time, showing a burst of momentum.

After that, Captain Amanda also ordered Antonio and two other sergeants to follow her into the helicopter.

"Major Sistine, can you still do it?"

After Amanda gave the order, she turned to look at Sistine, who was still squatting on the ground and clutching her stomach, with contempt in her eyes. 

"Yes, I'll bring a few brothers with me." 

"There are nine people outside the city and 20 people in the helicopter. I have already brought 3 people here. You can only bring six more people." 

"Understood," Sistine struggled to get up from the ground. 

Not long after, the mecha team had already been deployed, ready to be dropped down outside the wall. The rescue team by helicopter had also gathered, and the helicopter took off immediately.

However, this was very dangerous.

Although there were no flying Zergs or predators seen in the vicinity, in order to safely pick up the survivor, the helicopter needed to descend to a low altitude, which could make it easy prey for any gigantic Zerg or predators or monsters that had the extraordinary jumping ability.

However, General Frode went out of the city without hesitation. It wasn't because he was righteous and heroic, but because the situation forced him to do so.

Colonel Rajeev unexpectedly really ordered the release of the fire. Although in reality, Rajeev had betrayed him, in the eyes of the outsider, he was still a loyal subordinate of his. What Colonel Rajeev had done representing General Frode's will.

Thus, he had to let everyone know that he was going out of town to save Jeanne himself, drawing a clear line between him and Rajeev; otherwise, it would have brought catastrophic consequences worse than death.
