The chariot troops kept advancing, without stopping for dozens of hours to rest, and defeated six waves of beasts along the way. The excellent quality of the federal tanks was undoubtedly highlighted. After a long time of running and fierce battles, only one suffered a mechanical failure and was abandoned halfway.
The mysterious man has been sitting on the roof of the chariot. He is holding a personal terminal and looking through the report he just received.
This is the latest assessment report about the agents of the Special Operations Division. The base specially sent three high-speed combat vehicles to deliver it. In the special environment of Planet 4, most long-range wireless communication methods are ineffective. Moreover, flying here is tantamount to death, so the communication method has become the most primitive vehicle transmission.
This report lists in detail all the optional action modes of the junior agent when relying only on emergency survival kits, and simulates various scenarios of planetary survival. Combined with the traces left on the scene, it finally reaches the conclusion: two The agent's most powerful weapon should be the survival rifle, and its ammunition stock is very limited. At present, they may use a simplified version of the biomass rifle, which is not as comprehensively powerful as a survival rifle.
The two agents should have experienced many attacks from the beast herd, but the size of the beast herd is limited. In extreme cases, they can handle attacks by no more than a hundred beasts. In mixed mode, the number of animals in the herd should not exceed 50, and in the case of giant rhino, the number should not exceed 30.
A comprehensive evaluation shows that two agents should be equivalent to 15 elite warriors of the Tang Dynasty. But considering the equipment level, it should only be equivalent to 10 standard-equipped warriors.
Last line: The credibility of this report is 99.76%.
The mysterious man looked back at the 12 armored combat vehicles still in the queue, and then at the three newly added high-speed combat vehicles behind him. Although the high-speed tank sacrifices armor and firepower for speed and has average combat power, no matter how ordinary the tank is, it is still stronger than a person wearing only armor.
The chariot group was galloping at a speed of more than 60 kilometers. The chariot under the mysterious man fired several light red beams and kept sweeping them back and forth. Wherever the light red beam illuminated, two lines of wheel prints became clearly visible.
After chasing for a while, the mysterious man suddenly stood up and raised his right hand.
The entire chariot group immediately slowed down and slowly stopped.
At the edge of the forest ahead, there are obvious traces of a camp.
The mysterious man jumped off the chariot and led a group of soldiers towards the camp. He carried the sniper rifle behind his back, with no intention of fighting, and he didn't care if someone was secretly targeting him in the forest. The officer next to him reminded him several times, but he paid no attention to it. In the end, the officer had no choice but to follow him the whole time with his shield in hand.
The mysterious man walked around the camp, then squatted down, dug up the soil covering the ground, looked at the pipelines buried underneath, then stood up, looked at the traces around him, and ordered: "Take out all the buried pipelines." Dig them all out.”
"Sir, aren't we going to chase you now?"
The mysterious man said coldly: "What's the hurry? Where can they run at such a slow speed? Find all the pipelines!"
The order was given, and the federal soldiers could only dig three feet into the ground to find all the deeply buried pipelines.
"Where does the energy come from? How many device interfaces are there?"
A soldier replied: "According to the energy direction, it should be received from the mobile base. There are four equipment interfaces."
"Four..." the mysterious man pondered.
The researcher next to him said: "There are exactly four workbenches, refining furnaces, mechanical detectors, and organic matter separators. It seems that their development is quite primitive!"
The mysterious man said slowly: "Don't forget, there may also be a workbench on the mobile base."
"Sir, you have great foresight!" the researcher quickly applauded.
The mysterious man snorted and said without comment: "Their production capacity is limited, and most of it should be used in the construction of mobile bases. It seems to be to replenish fuel. Although it is not known what fuel they used, they were able to run out like this It’s far away, but it doesn’t matter, you’ll know when you catch up with them later.”
The mysterious man raised his voice, "Get in the car and set off! Chase them!"
He returned to the chariot, still sitting on the roof, and led the chariot group to continue the pursuit.
An hour later, there was still nothing in sight.
At this moment, the officer's voice sounded on the communication channel: "Sir, we need to send a vehicle back to the base to report."
"Send two."
"grown ups……"
"Is there anything else?" The mysterious man looked impatient.
"The distance we pursued far exceeded our expectations, and now the energy is almost at its limit. We can only pursue another 30 kilometers at most. If it is any longer, we won't have enough energy to return to the base."
The mysterious man snorted and said coldly: "It's as far as you can drive. If you can't drive back, can you just throw the car away?"
"Sir, I'm afraid the two generals will be unhappy if you abandon the chariot for no reason. Every material we have here is brought in at a huge cost. In addition, on this damn planet, if there is no chariot, our A warrior can’t get very far.”
The officer spoke tactfully, and the mysterious man naturally understood what he meant.
He was visibly upset, but not having a fit. Planetary armored combat vehicles are not just weapons, but also a complete set of life support devices. Without the armored fighting vehicles, the soldiers can only walk on foot. In a crisis-ridden environment, it is easy to imagine the distance they can travel. Allowing them to walk back to base on their own would be tantamount to asking them to commit suicide.
No matter how arrogant the mysterious man is, he knows he cannot give such an order. Even if you do it, the soldiers will refuse.
He said coldly: "If this is the case, then I will continue the pursuit with the high-speed chariot. The other chariots will be on standby to transfer the excess fuel to the high-speed chariot."
"Sir, are the troops a bit thin?"
"If five high-speed personnel carriers and 30 elite soldiers can't deal with the empty-handed junior agents, doesn't it mean that 30 soldiers of the Federation's most elite troops can't defeat 15 soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who are not fully equipped?"
"That's not what I meant." The officer apologized hastily.
"Then you are worried about my safety?" the mysterious man asked with a half-smile.
"No, no, I don't dare!" The officer did not dare to say anything more and quickly completed the deployment of fuel and troops. Finally, all the high-speed tanks were gathered together, and a dozen soldiers had also changed vehicles.
The five high-speed tanks quickly moved away, while the remaining tanks camped in place, waiting for the results. At the same time, two tanks were sent back to the base to report the battle situation.
On the Pilot's mobile base, Lin Xi slowly lowered his speed and set it at 15 kilometers per hour.
"Jun Gui, is it useful for us to do this?"
"Try it." Chu Jungui stood on the roof of the car, looking to the rear, and replied: "If we go faster and slower, they should be able to catch up. Anyway, we will have to fight sooner or later, so why not slow down and give it a try?" They have a delusion.”
"What about Horizon Base? Will our arrangement be useful?"
"As long as the opposing commander is careful enough, he should be able to deduce the amount of equipment we have based on the pipelines we left. In that case, they will misjudge the amount of firepower and ammunition we have."
Lin Xi shook his head and said, "How did you come up with it?"
"In the ancient times of the mother planet, there was a plan to reduce the number of stoves."
"It's the 35th century now..."
"As long as it's easy to use." Chu Jungui did not hide his pragmatism style.
