Inside The Black Mist Chapter 1380: Lost contact
Zhonglu.
Under the whole-territory blockade tactics of the Allied Forces of the Golden Tribunal, although it was slow, even called a tortoise, it was actually effective bit by bit, confining the army of Hellburg and gradually pushing them to dead end.
It's just that the army of Hellburg still has a strong combat effectiveness, and the coalition army is worried that if they press too hard, they will fight against the beasts.
The generals and commanders of the combined army are very clear about how much damage a crazy beast will bring to the combined army regardless of the cost.
Therefore, when the army of Hellburg occupied a small fortress, the coalition army did not press any further, but switched to negotiation methods, hoping to end the war in a softer way.
But the commander of Hellburg is very firm and refuses all negotiations. However, they are relatively restrained. They just stick to the fortress and occasionally try to break out of the siege. So far, they have not taken any drastic actions.
In the fortress occupied by Hell Fort, the sound of footsteps resounded powerfully. Hell Fort Commander Liu Yan strode forward with a tall figure, rough skin, extremely short hair standing on end, and a smell of gunpowder all over his body. Into the command center.
Here, he saw Chen Ge, the general who had performed well in the war and rose like a comet, as well as those veteran generals of Hellcastle. Liu Yan was very relieved to not look at those hard-lined faces like cast steel. To the slightest fear.
In the past more than eight months of fighting, many officers have died in battle, and the number of those still sitting here is only one-third of the original number. But after going through the test of iron and blood, everyone here has extremely strong nerves and is a well-deserved warrior and strongman.
Striding to his own seat, Liu Yan didn't sit down. His pair of muscular arms supported the table, making the long alloy table rattle under the pressure, as if it would deform and fall apart at any time.
"I want to tell you some bad news." Liu Yan said with a straight face and no expression.
None of the officers and generals below changed color. In the past time, they heard several bad news almost every day.
For them, the three words 'bad news' can no longer affect their mood in the slightest. Some of them are smoking cigarettes, some are sipping cigarettes, some have gloomy eyes, and some are still blooming Fighting.
Liu Yan let out a sigh of relief: "This bad news is worse than anything we have heard before. I hope you are all mentally prepared."
A military officer wearing a blindfold laughed: "Just tell me, Commander, what is the bad news?"
"We have lost contact with the Bastion."
"To be exact, we have not had any contact with Bastion in the past 13 days and 5 hours." Liu Yan added, "I have already used the secret channel and the encryption module, that is gold A signal that cannot be blocked by the combined forces of the Chamber of Commerce."
"So, Bastion, I'm afraid something went wrong."
The atmosphere in the command hall changed little by little. Everyone sitting here was not worried about whether they would be able to return home. But the changes in the fortress were enough to move them.
Except for Chen Ge.
He was originally an orphan, with no one to rely on, no care and no care.
In the fortress, there was no one who made him have to go back and meet him.
But other officers are different. They either have parents, wives and children, or brothers and sisters in the fortress.
They all have concerns.
This gradually melted the lines on their faces and made them feel uneasy. The officer wearing the blindfold just stood up: "Why did you tell us now, sir!"
Liu Yan did not evade his question, looked directly at the officer and said: "First, in the first few days, I was worried that it was just a technical failure, or that the reception at the fort was delayed, so I couldn't communicate in time. So I didn't tell You, so as not to affect your mood."
"Second, at that time we were preparing for a breakout operation, and announced the news at that time, are you still in the mood to fight?"
A gray-haired old general threw down his hat and said, "Then what are we waiting for now, Commander, we should break through immediately!"
"No, we just had a fight, and you know how many people were killed or injured. Now our soldiers' morale is low, breaking out at this time is pushing them out to die." Liu Yan immediately vetoed this proposal.
Chen Ge said in a deep voice, "Then when are we going to wait?"
Liu Yan looked at the window: "At least, in a week."
"The soldiers take a breath first, and then I will pretend to negotiate with the United Army and ask them to send us some food. On the day of the negotiation, I will attend to reassure them. At that time, you will organize manpower to break through."
Chen Ge narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Commander, do you know the consequences of doing that?"
Liu Yan laughed: "Of course, I will definitely be arrested and locked up for another hundred or two hundred years. Not in vain."
The officers and generals stood up one after another, and everyone was moved.
"Okay, okay, I know what you guys want to say, but there is no need to say anything, I have already decided."
Liu Yan said solemnly: "Since I brought you out, I have the responsibility to bring you back, even if only some of you can go back."
"I called you together today to announce this matter. Well, the meeting is over."
After speaking, Liu Yan left the command center first.
Two days later.
"Stop!"
"Don't go there, come back quickly!"
There was a commotion on the wall of the fortress, Chen Ge heard the sound, and came to a few soldiers: "What's wrong?"
When the soldiers saw that it was him, they were startled, and then said falteringly: "Sir... there are deserters."
"Deserters? Where are they?" Chen Ge looked down the city, and soon saw several sneaky figures heading towards the coalition army under the cover of various obstacles.
Chen Ge immediately said: "Kill them!"
Several soldiers looked at each other and said: "Sir, they heard that they lost contact with the fortress, so they wanted to run out. Just catch them back and forget it?"
Chen Ge snorted, grabbed the gun in a soldier's hand, aimed and shot himself.
Several beams of light pierced through the air one after another, hitting the deserters respectively, causing them to hide in a pool of blood.
Chen Ge then threw the gun back: "Said coldly, this case cannot be opened. If we set a precedent and run out one by one, how can we get so many people to catch them back?"
"Besides, the city lord read out the military order before departure, and all deserters will be killed! Have you all forgotten?"
A few soldiers looked at me, I looked at you, and when they were speechless, a convoy was slowly approaching outside the fortress.
"Sir, look!"
Chen Ge has already discovered it without warning. He took a telescope to look and found that the number of convoys is not large, and except for the two **** vehicles, the rest are signal engineering vehicles.
"Are you here to persuade to surrender again? But do you need so many signal engineering vehicles?" Chen Ge put down the binoculars and said, "Quickly, go and inform Commander Liu."
Soon Liu Yan came to the city wall, followed by seven or eight officers. After joining Chen Ge, Liu Yan looked at the convoy of the coalition army, who stopped outside the range of the city defense artillery.
Those engineering vehicles lined up, raised their antennas, and prepared the projectors, which made Liu Yan a little confused.
After a while, there was a voice: "I am Chu Ze, the negotiator of the United Army, but this time, I am not here to negotiate with you. Next, we will play a video from West Land, We can guarantee that this image has not been processed in any way."
Listening to the broadcast on the other side, Liu Yan and other officers were even more confused, not knowing what the United Army wanted to do.
The officer wearing a blindfold chuckled even more: "Don't they want to play some beautiful food to lure us to surrender?"
After speaking, laughter resounded on the city wall.
At this moment, Liu Yan raised his hand, and the officers immediately fell silent.
Then, a light screen was raised on the opposite side, and a desolate plain without any plants appeared on the huge projection screen.
Seeing that scene, Chen Ge couldn't help but look at Liu Yan, and without him speaking, many officers beside him whispered: "That's not the plain before the scarlet crack, the ancient city of the first Ability God War. The battlefield? Why, the Golden Court has found the location of our fortress?"
Suddenly, the officers became nervous, and Liu Yan was no exception: "Could it be that the reason why the fortress can't be contacted is because the Golden Tribunal has discovered its location and launched an attack?"
Hearing this, many officers gritted their teeth and said: "Commander, don't look at it, let's fight them hard now."
"Wait." Chen Ge said softly, "Look, is that... the convoy evacuated from the fortress?"
On the screen, on the vast plain, a convoy appeared at this time. The convoy had black and red Hellburg chariots that looked like shuttles, but most of them were large and small civilian vehicles, and the rear of the convoy was obviously fighting, with explosions of flames and smoke constantly rising.
Soon, the camera zoomed in, allowing the officers of Hellburg to see that behind the convoy, there appeared black people with long horns on their heads and spouting flames. Those humanoid monsters were chasing the convoy , and set off some chariots and exploded them.
"This...isn't this the 'devil'? Isn't this the black people behind our Clough Gate? How did they escape?"
"Could it be that our Clough Gate is out of control?"
All of a sudden, there were exclamations on the city wall.
Then, the United Army's broadcast sounded again: "As you can see, this is an image sent from the Westland two days ago. We have found the location of your fort, but your Clough Gate is out of control. The black people have rushed out."
"Now, our court is mobilizing the various fortresses in the Westland, and we need all the fortresses to dispatch troops to form a coalition to suppress it."
"Everyone, no matter what our positions are, the black people are our common enemy. What's more, your relatives and friends may have encountered disasters, or are waiting for you to go back and rescue them."
"So we hope that you can surrender unconditionally. As long as you disarm, we can arrange for you to return to the Westland as soon as possible, because now, we need more manpower and greater strength to prevent this disaster."
"Of course, after the black people are stopped, you must give an account and compensation for the damage you caused to Zhonglu and the losses you caused to the people!"
