Not long after, the representative of the Human Alliance also turned to look at Commander Xia, agreeing firmly.

Volume 1004 Battle of Time: Chapter 0971 Chapter [-] The enemy who attacked in advance

0971

2 month 7 day.

"The troops in the northern and central theaters have been assembled. The 41st and 53rd Group Armies have deployed four lines of defense in these two directions. The frontline troops only need to move back [-] to [-] kilometers to enter the friendly army's field of vision," said Amid the sound of red alarms, the combat staff officer said calmly, "The deployment of the first three defensive positions in the southern position has been completed, and the construction of defensive facilities for the fourth and fifth defense lines has been completed. It is expected to be completed before [-] o'clock this afternoon. Deployment of troops and fire positions."

On the horizon more than 50 kilometers away from Xia Guo's position, raging alien monsters have emerged from the ground like a flood, and the number of imitators appearing under the human monitoring satellite at this time far exceeds that used to consume them a few days ago. The scale of human coalition ammunition.

And at the moment when this group of imitators appeared, the electromagnetic interference that once appeared briefly when the human coalition entered the world also enveloped the outer positions of the Xia Kingdom. With the opening of the small teleportation gate for communication, Xia Guo Command may have become blind at this time.

From February 2th to February 4th, the actions of the imitators were indeed as inferred by the human coalition forces. While approaching the outer positions of Xia Kingdom a little bit, some small or large numbers would suddenly appear on a large area every day. Quite a few - about 2 to 6 troops, attracting attacks from Xia Guo defenders.

In the past few days, the supporting forces of various countries on the Ukrainian battlefield have been fully utilized. Aerospace warships, drones, bombers, rocket troops, and even long-range rocket artillery units have all carried out the deliberate exposure of the imitators. As for the attack, it can be said that except for the battlefield support troops such as attack planes that need to dive at low altitude and may be shot down by imitators, the United Nations Army has almost shown its own troops once or twice in the past few days.

In addition to the regular troops of the United Nations Army, the human coalition forces will also drop a few "downloaded" Immortal companies into these areas from time to time, or let two giant steel soldiers fight for a while in the imitator assembly point after the shelling , to attract the imitator units that are difficult to reach with conventional shells to the ground, and complete the end of the imitator units deep underground.

While reducing the number of combatable units of the imitators, this kind of troops that can only be beaten but not fight back has also become a very good weapon inspector. Be more cautious, except for the Immortal Legion airdropped at the end, no unconventional weapons and ammunition were used.

Since February 2th, the human coalition has allocated about 5% of the ammunition used in the daily bombing of imitators to experiment with various new types of ammunition—mainly ammunition that combines magic technology and modern technology. .

From the conventional cognition in the fantasy world, there is basically no precedent for enchanting ammunition—whether it is arrows, slings, or siege bolts. Even if any force wants to strengthen the long-range ability of their troops, they often It will only start from the archers themselves or the crossbows they use.

On the one hand, this is because the cost is too high. Even if the archers only shoot three rounds in the battle, and there is a certain probability that they can recover the arrows after the battle is won, the amount of ammunition needed for a large-scale battle can be easily consumed. Thousands.

If you have the energy to put inscriptions on tens of thousands of feathered arrows, it is better to use these funds to strengthen the armor of the knight. The training funds for the archers or other soldiers that a knight can kill on the battlefield will definitely exceed For the cost of his armor, increasing the survival rate of these high-level units is obviously a more cost-effective choice.

Not to mention that the difficulty of engraving runes on an arrow less than half the size of a palm is much higher than that of strengthening a soldier's armor. Probably only characters in various master fields can complete this project, unless it is time to do so. It is impossible - for example, more powerful feather arrows are needed to kill the heroic units on the opposite side - otherwise no force will waste the precious time of a blacksmith master on enchanting arrows.

——At least it was like this before the human coalition brought lithography machines and CNC milling machines.

When the human coalition forces completed the early technology accumulation and determined that as long as they copy the magic circles, they can realize the original functions of these magic circles without hindrance, it will be the same fate as those middle and low-level pharmacists in the fantasy world. All kinds of blacksmiths who have already enchanted the equipment have also embarked on the road of bankruptcy and being incorporated by the human coalition forces, and began to try to turn various "wonderful ideas" of the human coalition forces into reality.

If at the beginning, the human coalition forces still had doubts about whether to install such equipment on a larger area because of the difficulty in charging various enchanted equipment, then when the human coalition forces have basically mastered the wireless power transmission technology, and the Magic Technology Research Institute also After realizing the industrialized production of the magic power core, the technical demonstration of various enchanted bullets and enchanted shells was also brought up again for discussion.

After all, the bullet enchanting process that seems "impossible to realize" in the fantasy world is a problem for the human coalition forces to add a few more lithography machines behind a bullet production line. If the human coalition forces are determined to install enchanted bullets, It is also completely possible to complete the transformation of all bullet production lines within one quarter.

And you must know that the Lake City Army Ammunition Factory in New Britain alone can produce 16 billion bullets of various types every year-in fact, when many so-called "incorporated" bullets in the fantasy world were still unconvinced by the human coalition forces After hearing the terrible production capacity of the human coalition, the blacksmiths put away their contempt for the human coalition, and obediently accepted the appointment and transfer of the human coalition.

Of course, due to the influence of air resistance, engraving a large area of ​​magic inscriptions on the bullets is likely to cause these bullets to roll during flight, reducing the range and hit rate of the bullets. Further technical demonstrations are needed-such as adding magic inscriptions Engraved inside the bullet.

However, missiles and guidance bombs that can adjust their posture in the air will not be affected by this. In order to test the attack power of these magical shells, the human coalition has rushed to produce a batch of ammunition engraved with various magical inscriptions. It even includes things like "cluster bombs engraved with healing methods" of unknown meaning.

The imitator has also played the role of its own weapon tester very "competently" in the past few days, and through the observation of the imitator after being attacked, the human coalition forces have also crossed out some seemingly whimsical designs—such as the The "Healing Bomb" mentioned - but another enchanted bomb with good results.

Needless to say, conventional enchantments such as attaching flame runes to high-explosive bombs and penetrating runes to the "bullets" of parent bombs, bombs with both physical and magical characteristics will definitely play a greater role. attack effect.

According to the observation of the human coalition forces, if twenty sets of flame runes are engraved on a 50.00-kilogram high-explosive bomb, when the bomb explodes, the flame temperature and burning range it produces will be enhanced by about [-]%, and because more Burning and expanding rapidly, this enchanted shell will also cause a more violent explosion, which is as powerful as a [-] kg aerial bomb with the same charge.

By launching these experimental ammunition, in addition to helping the human coalition forces have a clearer and more intuitive understanding of the possible application scenarios of various magical enchantments, it may also allow imitators to produce "more than [-] kilometers of human beings on the eastern front." The ammunition of the range weapon is about to run out, and the experimental ammunition can only be put on the battlefield" illusion-if the imitator can really distinguish what is a human conventional ammunition and what is an enchanted ammunition.

It is also because the target of the imitator is too "excellent". When the battle ended on February 2, and the weapon experts who observed the battlefield were "reluctantly" invited back to the rear by the human coalition forces, many of them were still looking forward to 6 The "test" on the 2th, after all, according to the initial estimate of the human coalition forces, this may be the last day they can test weapons unscrupulously.

The only problem is that the imitators appeared as usual on February 2th—but the problem is that the scale of their assembly in the first 7 minutes has exceeded the expectations of the human coalition forces.

The anomaly was first discovered at a position more than 50 kilometers west of Xiaguo's position. Millions of imitators suddenly appeared on the ground monitoring satellite of the human coalition forces. The moment they drilled out of the ground, they rushed towards the human position. past.

"What happened? Is the battle ahead of schedule?" When Xia Kingdom's outlying positions resumed contact with their superiors one after another, a regiment leader looked at the huge ash layer billowing in the distance, and spoke quickly to a [-]-year-old The microphone protruding from the centimeter-long and wide portal asked loudly.

Behind this regiment leader, Xia Guo's troops have already started to block and shoot these imitator troops that are advancing rapidly. Amidst the continuous bangs, one after another flames burst out from the shelling position, and the shells drew a line. Dow's standard and deadly parabola, before crashing into a wave of imitators.

The rain of fire with steel balls suddenly exploded at a position more than ten meters above the imitator army. The tens of thousands of flames lit up on the hundreds of kilometers of front even distorted the charge route of these alien monsters. What kind of movements and postures they were still sitting a moment ago, when they were brought into the attack range by the human coalition forces, all they had left was smashed into cakes, torn into pieces, and melted into water.

However, the imitators who have gone back in time for an unknown number of times are very good at attracting the firepower of the human coalition forces with seemingly many troops, but they actually don’t have much. The imitators of this round of attacks are just barely past the five-figure baseline.

The same urgent question as the head of the regiment was reported to the headquarters level by level from every position in the Xia Kingdom. The soldiers of the Xia Kingdom were not afraid of fighting with imitators, not to mention that the Xia Kingdom and the human coalition forces were seriously insufficient in firepower. Under the influence of the disease, the defense force of each position was continuously consolidated day and night, and even [-] hydrogen bombs were delivered to the front line. They are also completely true.

But they had fully learned of the next "big plan" of the human coalition forces a few days ago, and they were very worried that if they fired all their firepower, they might "scare off" the imitators and affect the implementation of the human coalition forces' next plan Therefore, except for the Xia Guo artillery, many positions fell into the hesitation of whether to fight or not to fight.

"beat!"

However, this timid state didn't last long. Just when the imitator was about to approach the [-]-kilometer range of Xia Guo's position, Xia Guo's headquarters sent a very brief order.

The attack of the imitators seems to be massive, and the scale of the troops participating in the attack is much larger than that of the imitators assembled a few days ago, and from the monitoring screen of the underground detection satellite, more imitators are still gathering towards the Xia Kingdom position According to preliminary estimates, the number of troops invested by the imitators around Xia Guo's position is likely to reach tens of millions.

In other words, all the evidence shows that the main force of the imitators has appeared on the battlefield, and the human coalition forces should now follow the plan to gradually withdraw their troops from their positions to lure the main force of the imitators into the encirclement of the human coalition forces.

But the problem is that although the number of imitator troops that have been assembled or are being assembled has reached more than ten million, the number of imitator troops that actually launched an attack on Xia Guo's position at this time may be less than 200 million, which is different from that of the United Nations.. It has been observed in the past that imitators rarely reserve reserve troops, and once they enter a state of war, the tactics of pushing these alien troops one by one will be inconsistent.

Therefore, it is not difficult for the general headquarters to judge that this is actually just a feint attack by the imitators. The imitator commander believes that their "offensive" a few days ago has basically consumed all the weapons of more than [-] kilometers of human beings. The greater oppression of the troops further consumes the conventional combat forces of human defenders such as artillery and machine guns.

After making this judgment, the Xia State Command soon believed that not only could this battle not be advanced, but in today's battle, it must also be ensured that an alien monster could not cross over—or even approach human positions.

If the imitators just stop attacking after the troops that have been put into battle are basically consumed, then the human defenders only need to use no more and no less firepower to destroy these aliens as they did a few days ago The troops will do.

The imitator's attack will continue until tomorrow, so Xia Guo's counterattack force will gradually weaken from [-]:[-] tonight until [-]:[-] tomorrow. The troops on all fronts will withdraw from their positions one by one, and the defense of the positions will be completely handed over to the automatic defense facilities. ——and the underground "Holy Light Generator".

Of course, even if the imitator's attack was not a test, after discussion, the general headquarters still believed that it was not possible to launch a campaign in advance according to the attack rhythm of the imitator.

In addition to the reason that the southern rear position has not been fully built, the general headquarters believes that when the imitators can go back in time, it is absolutely impossible for humans to adjust tactics faster than these alien monsters. Actions to change one's own tactics will only gradually fall into the trap of imitators.

Therefore, even if these alien aliens really launch a general attack in advance, the human defenders should fight at their own pace, under the principle of "fight if you win, and leave if you don't win" Yours, I'll hit mine."

Volume 1005 Time War: Chapter 0972 Chapter [-] Traces

0972

The piercing sound of jet engines came from high altitude, weakened by layers of clouds and gunpowder smoke, and when the sound waves reached the ground, only a low hum remained, but when a formation of more than 20 strategic bombers galloped over the imitator army, Outdated, hundreds of tons of heavy aerial bombs and enchanted incendiary bombs spit out from the belly of the aircraft will not be weakened due to the increase in bombing altitude. The explosion and flames will continue to extend along the shadow trajectory of the bomber, blowing a large number of imitators in the bombing path. gotta smash.

While the strategic bombers were flying at high altitude, a large number of drones blocked the airspace where Jin was located. Numerous triangular attack drones quickly passed under the clouds. After throwing away the missiles and aerial bombs, these unmanned Like a sparrow, the drone repeatedly swoops and hovers above the imitator's head. Whenever a drone draws a beautiful downward parabola, a string of imitators will be torn apart under the attack of machine guns or various missiles. .

However, in order to create more pressure on the human defenders and consume the ammunition of the Xia defense line more quickly, the imitators surrounded from all directions changed their previous behavioral logic of only being beaten and not fighting back, and there were continuous orange energy beams circling and crossing from the ground As they rise from the ground, drones will be hit by the anti-aircraft firepower of the imitators every minute, but at the same time, more drones will pour the flames of revenge on the heads of these emerging aliens.

It seems that the imitators have been preparing for today's offensive for a long time. Even though the human coalition forces have eliminated a large group of imitators' long-range attack units, there are still imitators emerging from the ground. The human drone force in flight posture hit it hard.

It seems that the imitator's attack seems to have had an effect, and the wreckage of the human coalition's drone quickly piled up a thin layer of metal debris on the ground.

But just like many enemies who once tried to fight quality wars with the human coalition forces, when a drone explodes and disintegrates in the attack of an imitator, more drones will immediately fill its vacancy, even if the imitator Hundreds of fireballs appeared in the sky above the victim's head in just ten minutes, and the fragments of the drones that fell one after another had no effect on the human firepower on the ground.

In front of the holographic projection of the frontline headquarters, the red marks representing alien aliens are attacking Xia Guo's position wave after wave, and quickly fade away under the attack of various long-range firepower. Few imitators can rush into the range of human ground troops .

That is to say, occasionally a group of imitators will enter the field of vision of the defenders of the position, and often there is no need for the defenders to fire. The various defensive turrets set up around the position can tear these alien aliens apart. Among them, except for the artillery units, most of the defenders on all fronts kept not firing a single shot.

However, both the human commanders and the defenders of the various worlds in the position are very clear that this state will not last for too long. After a simple lunch, the soldiers from various realities polished their steel guns , Get ready to fight alien aliens at a distance.

This is not because the number of imitators and the intensity of their attacks have increased, but according to the plan, human troops will gradually weaken their own firepower projection capabilities starting in the afternoon, which will inevitably lead to the gradual decline of alien aliens that break through the human firepower blockade. It's just that neither the imitators nor the human troops have exerted their full strength at this time, and the pressure that Xia Guo's position must face is not too exaggerated.

"These imitators avoided most of our fire-intensive areas, which prevented our attacks from achieving the maximum effect." Commander Xia Guo took the latest estimated data given by the staff department and looked at the holographic projection. The red mark representing the imitator sighed in a slightly complicated tone.

Although the result of eliminating more than 40 imitators in the morning seems to be pretty good, in order to reduce the number of these alien aliens, the human coalition dropped more than 900 million tons of various artillery shells and aerial bombs on the imitator-infested areas in the morning , That is to say, an average of [-] tons of ammunition can destroy an imitator's cannon fodder unit. Even if the human coalition forces pour ammunition so recklessly, there is a purpose for the imitator to misjudge, but even if the ammunition consumption is halved, such a huge ammunition Consumption is definitely not something that any force can bear alone.

"There should be Alpha in them, just like the imitator I killed when I landed in Normandy, otherwise they would not be able to avoid most of our bombing areas in advance."

William Cage was frowning and staring at the screen in front of him at this time, quickly looking for Alpha in the pictures taken by drones and satellites.

Now that the pressure on the front line is not too great, the commanders of this battle decided to put more energy on finding Alpha imitators, especially since the ammunition consumption of this battle is really too high, if they just eliminate Hundreds of thousands of imitators and subordinate units, everyone will feel as if they have lost money.

Drones and satellites scanned the battlefield over and over again, and sent a large amount of video and image data back to the command headquarters, but neither the environmental analysis AI nor the human commanders could identify from the returned images what William Cage said was special. individual.

Through the restoration of the thinking world, the other commanders present also knew very well what the Alpha unit killed by William Cage looked like, but no matter how many people stared at the screen, the human coalition forces failed to make any progress all morning .

"These monsters know that we are watching them. Their deformation speed is too fast. Each alien has a different shape every minute. They are like mud." In the frontline command, watching the satellite and wireless Commander Xia Guo couldn't help frowning in the footage captured by the man-machine, "I suspect that the imitators didn't add Alpha to this group of decoy troops. We have eliminated at least 1 imitator units this morning. If there are really any For Alpha, the time should have been retraced a long time ago, I don’t know how many times.”

Commander Xia Guo pressed the bridge of his nose, and at this time a human coalition commander added: "These alien monsters not only maintained a high-speed transformation frequency during this attack, but they also actively increased their physique, I compared the imitators who attacked London with those who were attacking us, and compared them on the same scale, and found that the average size of the imitators who were attacking us was 50.00% to sixty percent larger than the imitators who were attacking London."

While the commander was speaking, a comparison chart was placed in a corner of the holographic projection: "This increase in height can only bring a limited increase in combat power to the imitators, and it does not allow the imitators to suddenly possess The ability to fight hand-to-hand with our hoplites will instead affect their flexibility, making them easier to hit by our attacks."

"So the only reason I can think of for imitators to increase the size of their subordinate units is that these alien monsters may know that we are looking for their special units. At least one of our future capture plans has failed, so they know that we They are disguising ordinary units as Alphas to avoid our detection."

"In the case that the imitators have already learned part of our plan, I also think that the imitators may not have sent Alphas into battle, or even if the imitators have sent Alphas into the battlefield, these Alphas should be hidden in the corner of the battlefield."

"I don't think so," a tall Lucia commander shook his head at this time, "There is a very critical issue that we have not been able to figure out, which is the information that the imitator can know when going back in time , Is it the information collected by the Alpha that was killed, or the information collected by all Alphas during this period?"...

"Judging from William Cage's experience, the imitator's perception of the battlefield should be the latter," the commander of the human coalition forces immediately understood what Commander Lucia wanted to explain, and he suddenly realized and nodded, " When Cage goes back in time, the imitator cannot know his situation, and when the imitator goes back in time, Cage will not feel it. It is not until the two parties fall into the other party's ambush and trigger time backtracking that they can take actions against the other party. produce a reaction."

"So if the imitator wants to have sufficient control over the entire battlefield, then he needs to invest more than one Alpha on this battlefield, or else he can only make one Alpha die thousands of times, so the imitator The operator has not only deployed Alphas on the battlefield, but may have deployed more than one."

"Perhaps they let Alpha withdraw from the battlefield after they detected the information they wanted?" The staff officer next to the commander of the human coalition forces said in an uncertain tone, "Even if the imitators can go back in time infinitely, except Alpha In addition to such units that directly go back in time, it should not be possible for them to directly micromanage every subordinate unit. In this way, imitators only need to use alpha units to test out battlefields that are beneficial to them on a timeline that we do not know, and formulate Come up with a rough attack plan, then there will be no need for Alpha units to go on the battlefield, right?".

"No, even if the imitators already know the approximate range of our bombing, if they adjust the deployment of their troops, we may change the bombing area. The imitators must let the Alpha unit go deep into the battlefield and be killed by our attack. Maybe enough useful information has been collected," Commander Xia Guo also reacted, and then said, "If the imitators only invested 30 to 130 troops a day a few days ago, they wouldn't feel bad even if they were all dead. But this morning alone, the number of imitators we detected has reached more than [-] million, and it is totally unreasonable for imitators to be uncautious in a battle of this scale."

"That's right," the human coalition commander had just finished, and William Cage immediately put forward his own opinion, "Before you came to this world, the Normandy landing battle launched by the United Nations was destroyed by imitators' ambush. Even in the fiasco, even in that battle where the imitators had an absolute advantage, there were still alpha units on the battlefield——I got the ability to go back in time in that battle."

"The scale of this battle is now larger, and the imitators are still at a disadvantage. They will walk on thin ice every step of the way. It is impossible for them not to keep certain alpha units in the team to ensure that there will be no unexpected factors in the battle."

"I agree with William Cage," the human coalition commander also supported at this time, "When we first contacted the imitator, the imitator found the main control room of one of our underground bases without any delay. Part of our energy system has been paralyzed, which is enough to show that an alpha unit has entered our world and has performed time travel more than once."

"Of course, that's not the point." Since the human coalition forces didn't know what happened to the Egyptian Empire on a certain timeline, the commander of the human coalition forces could only briefly explain the situation: "The point is, after the nuclear leveling of the After the base, we collected some of the remains of the imitators from the ruins of the base, and used this part of the remains to go back in time."

"However, judging from our current experiments on imitator sub-units, no matter how much energy is given to ordinary imitator sub-units, it is impossible to reproduce the results we have achieved in the 'future'. We have reason to believe that, Even in the final battle, the imitators sent Alpha into our world."

"This doesn't make sense," Commander Xia Guo said suddenly, "Since you said that you have killed Alpha units in your own world, then according to the information provided by William Cage, when Alpha dies, it will passively trigger time regression, then Theoretically, you should not have the ability to kill Alpha completely...or is it that the nuclear bomb that you detonated the base did not directly kill Alpha, it just blew it to death before you found its body? ?”

"This may be due to my incomplete ability," William Cage explained at this time, "From the information we have so far, I can only go back to an anchored time every time I go back. point, and I do not have the internal ability to actively select and update this anchor time point, but the imitator can choose multiple time points for backtracking, which shows that the time-backtracking ability of the imitator is likely to be stronger than the ability I stole. Flexible, they can actively choose whether to go back in time after the death of Alpha, which makes sense."

William Cage's explanation made many people nod their heads, and the representative of the Human Alliance added after his speech: "There is another possible reason. Before the Alpha that invaded our world was killed by the nuclear bomb, our portal may be One step is closed, and when the connection between the two worlds is broken, it may also make it impossible to go back in time after the death of the imitator Alpha."

"Gentlemen, don't you think this is a topic that scientists should discuss?" However, as commanders or military representatives from various countries expanded their discussions on this issue, the liaison officer of the beautiful country present interjected, "I think We should focus more on the current battle, and, look at this thing on the surveillance screen of the Z-797 drone, is it the damn Alpha that William saw?"

Volume 1006 Time War: Chapter 0973 Chapter [-] Abnormal

0973

Strictly speaking, since the human coalition forces entered this world, before knowing the specific information of the imitators, they planned to capture or snatch individuals or related technologies with the ability to go back in time, and after William Cage came into contact with the human coalition forces, The human coalition's capture plan has a clear goal.

In order to achieve this goal, the human coalition has made very long preparations, but before the human coalition can't understand the essence of the imitator's ability to go back in time, no matter how much preparation the human coalition makes, in the face of the unpredictable "future" It can never be called adequate preparation.

Even though the human coalition forces have basically narrowed the imitator's time retrospective range to a week through a series of battles and trials, the imitators can always disrupt the deployment of the human coalition forces through a series of unplanned things, such as attacking London. , This is true for actively attacking Xia Guo's position before the start of the battle, and the same is true for the Alpha unit that is currently displayed on the drone monitoring screen.

The performance of the suspected imitator Alpha unit that suddenly appeared on the monitoring screen made the discussions in the command headquarters stagnant. After the size of the ordinary imitator unit was consciously enlarged by their commanders, the suspected The appearance features are actually not too prominent. Except for the occasional blue light on the surface of the body and the thicker limbs, the rest of the external features are almost the same as ordinary units. If you don’t identify them carefully, you can easily mistake them for ordinary imitators confused.

But let the officer of the beautiful country notice this "Alpha" at a glance, and further see the reason why it is different from other imitators. This slight difference between ordinary units is due to the fact that in the battlefield full of bullets, only this alien alien did not quickly attack the human position, but maintained a slow speed. Going around in circles on the battlefield about forty kilometers away from the human position.

When the imitators have nothing to do with the large number of drones of the human coalition forces for the time being, all units trying to attack the human positions will use the bomb craters or the corpses of other imitators to cover their progress, but the imitators appearing on the screen now The unit did not hide its whereabouts at all. Compared with other imitator units that were advancing cautiously, it could even be said that this imitator, which was only suspected of being Alpha, wandered around the battlefield swaggeringly.

Just as the atmosphere in the headquarters gradually became depressing, all the commanders noticed that the "Alpha" on the screen suddenly raised his head without warning, and the blue-black metal sheet Hollow pupils stare straight at the drone's camera—or at the human commander behind the frame.

This is an obvious provocation, it knows where the drone is!

No need to be reminded, everyone in the headquarters immediately judged that this "Alpha" was a decoy, and through the current actions of the imitator, the human coalition forces can basically be sure that in the next few days, the human coalition forces will try to capture the imitator's Alpha unit, and there must have been some omissions in this capture operation, which allowed Alpha to transmit relevant information back to "now" in advance.

Undoubtedly, the commander of the imitator has clearly known that one of the important goals of the human coalition forces is to capture the alpha unit that can go back in time after death. According to general thinking, after discovering this, the imitator should take the alpha unit Hiding in a more hidden location, so that the human coalition forces cannot find it.

But this time, the imitator made an unexpected move by the human coalition forces. The imitator commander directly placed the Alpha unit on the bright side, and only held up a sign in front of the human beings and shouted, "All eyes are on me!" up.

There are only two possibilities for this abnormal behavior of the imitator.

Or the "Alpha" captured by the drone is not an Alpha that can go back in time at all, but an "advanced decoy" disguised by imitators using ordinary units.

It is not difficult to achieve this. Now that the human coalition has discovered that imitators can make their ordinary units deform and increase, it seems that it is not very difficult to add blue "special effects" to the light positions of these ordinary units things.

Either the commander of the imitator has enough confidence in the "suicide ability" of the Alpha unit. It believes that unless the human coalition forces can blind cats and blindfold dead mice like William Cage, otherwise it will definitely allow the Alpha unit to be killed by humans. Backtrack in time before capture by coalition forces.

But no matter what kind of state the imitator of the suspected alpha unit appeared under the camera, it made the human coalition forces feel very difficult.

If it is the first possibility, it means that even in the stage of stalemate or counterattack, the alpha found by the human coalition forces on the battlefield may be bait pretended by other units, and the imitator commander will use these baits to distract the human coalition forces .

This not only allows the elite troops of the human coalition to take the initiative to leave the front line to fight, go deep into the imitator control area to try to capture the battle, but also wait until the human coalition has spent a lot of effort and sacrifice to finally send the captured "Alpha" to other worlds , It may be discovered that the previous efforts were completely wasted on an ordinary imitator subordinate unit.

Not only that, but if the imitators really start disguising ordinary units as alphas, it also means that the human coalition forces will have to be more cautious in their subsequent attacks.

After all, judging from the information currently held by the human coalition forces, since Alphas will go back in time after death, when several alphas appear swaggeringly on the path of the human coalition's bombardment, before determining the authenticity of these alphas, in order to avoid them Back in time, the human coalition can only temporarily avoid attacks on these locations.

Even though the various types of precision-guided weapons of the human coalition can control the bombing error range within ten meters, the cost and production difficulty of precision-guided weapons are several times higher than that of ordinary shells. Even if the human coalition can greatly simplify the In the production process of guided weapons, it is still not an easy task to supply a battle with as many as eleven armies participating in the battle.

In addition, if the imitators put these suspected Alpha units in the most prominent positions in the next battle, it will also greatly reduce the bombing frequency of the human coalition orbital air bombing system.

In addition to laser weapons, whether it is ion cannon or orbital bombing, its spread is not small. If such units are scattered all over the follow-up battlefield, it may appear. The orbital weapons of the human coalition are difficult to avoid all " In the case of "Alpha", continue to maintain a higher frequency of fire.

The situation represented by the second possibility is even worse. The time regression triggered by Alpha's death will not leave William Cage with relevant memories, so the human coalition forces cannot know what went wrong in the future capture plan .

Was it a certain weapon that directly crushed Alpha?Is it that neither science nor magic can limit Alpha?Is it because when the human coalition forces first tried to launch an attack on Alpha, Alpha realized that something was wrong and took the initiative to go back in time?Or is it that the human coalition successfully captured an Alpha, but the other Alphas learned of this information and took the initiative to go back in time to bring this news to the imitator commander?

These questions lingered in the minds of every commander in an instant, casting a haze on the headquarters that were still eagerly discussing just now.

But on the ever-changing battlefield, there is not much time left for the commanders to think.
