The battle on Lingtian's side had finally ended. The rescue team had already started searching the area. Even though the mecha operators from Lingtian had already searched the area once, they still searched every inch of the ruins in the starry space. They had to find every mecha operator from Lingtian, even if it was just a corpse.
Their regiment commander said that no matter what happened, Lingtian would bring them back.
"Boss, there's a signal from the base." Little Four received a call from the base so he told Ling Lan.
"Connect it." In order not to affect her commanding the battle, Ling Lan asked Little Four to block the signal from the base. That way, she would be able to say that she didn't see the big picture and made a wrong judgment when she destroyed three mecha clans on the battlefield.
This was normal. In a mecha battle, one mistake could cost one's life. Who would care about the big picture? The mecha operators only had one thought in their mind. Kill, kill, kill! They had to kill all the enemies in front of them so that they could survive. Thus, misjudgments were common. Most of the time, it was only at the end of the battle that they realized that either they were all dead or their enemies were all dead.
And to prevent misjudgments, it was up to the command center that commanded them. Whether to stop or continue fighting, the command center would give new orders according to the situation of the battle. Ling Lan blocked the signal so that the command center wouldn't be able to contact them. That way, they wouldn't be able to give orders to stop the battle and accept captives.
The moment the signal was connected, Yu Huan's voice was heard. "Regiment Commander Ling, congratulations on your victory."
"If you have something to say, just say it." And then it would be bad news. Once Ling Lan heard the other party's words, she knew something was up.
"We're in a tight spot on the main battlefield. Can you ask Lingtian to help us?" Yu Huan asked carefully. After all, Lingtian had already fought two battles in a row. These two battles were the most difficult ones. One was against Knight Ace Mecha Clan and the other was against two mecha clans that outnumbered them by two to one. According to common sense, they should return to the base to rest. Otherwise, if they overworked themselves while operating the mecha, not only would their combat power decrease, it would also increase the casualty rate.
Ling Lan frowned. "What happened?"
"Caesar's entire army is on the move. I'm afraid our ejection speed won't be able to keep up." Although there were still reserve troops, the ejection port was already operating at full capacity, and there was no way to quickly replenish the troops. On the main battlefield, in terms of military strength, Caesar had already occupied the battlefield. The Federation had already shrunk the frontline and focused on defense.
This was also why Yu Huan knew that Ling Tian would not be able to continue fighting. However, he still held onto a sliver of hope that Ling Tian would be able to help him.
After knowing how terrifying Ling Tian was, Yu Huan didn't want to add a humiliating defeat to his record.
"Let me think about it. I'll give you an answer later." Ling Lan immediately cut off the conversation.
When Yu Huan heard the beep, he sighed bitterly. He could only hope that Ling Lan would give him some good news.
Ling Lan thought for a moment. Then, she asked Little Four to contact Li Shiyu. She asked calmly, "How long will it take for the medicinal agent to wear off?"
"A conservative estimate is 10 minutes." Li Shiyu looked at the time on the communicator on his wrist and calculated seriously.
"That's enough." Ling Lan hung up the call with Li Shiyu.
Then, she pressed the button on the team comms channel. "Do you still have the strength to fight?"
All the mecha operators stopped operating their mechas and shouted excitedly in unison, "Yes!"
The continuous battles had already made them hot-blooded. In addition, the effects of the medicinal agent had not worn off yet. They felt that their bodies were full of energy. They didn't feel tired at all. They just wanted to fight with their enemies 800 more times.
"Good! Our target is the main battlefield. This time, I'll give you 8 minutes. After 8 minutes, no matter what the situation is, all of you will retreat. "Ling Lan announced calmly.
Ling Lan knew that when Li Shiyu said a conservative estimate of 10 minutes, the effects of the medicinal agent would only wear off after 10 minutes. However, Ling Lan wouldn't really use up these 10 minutes. She would use the remaining two minutes to deal with any changes that might occur.
When it was time to be cautious, Ling Lan wouldn't be careless. This was especially so in a battlefield that could change at any moment. Ling Lan needed to be more careful than anyone else. She needed to leave behind enough trump cards.
Soon, the engines in this area roared. Around 1500 mecha operators rushed towards the main battlefield under the lead of their team leaders.
"Little Four, how long do you think they will take to arrive?" Ling Lan looked at the mechas that were leaving and asked Little Four.
"Based on this speed, they will arrive in 63.23 seconds."
Ling Lan decisively called Yu Huan. "Major General Yu, after 60 seconds, we will launch a counterattack."
After saying this, she didn't wait for Yu Huan's reply and hung up the call.
Yu Huan was stunned for a moment. However, soon, his face was filled with joy. He decisively contacted the main battlefield and gave this order.
"Everyone in the command center has gone crazy …" The regiment commanders of the mecha clans who were fighting hard on the main battlefield all cursed when they received this order.
Counterattack? How were they going to counterattack? Didn't they see that they were being beaten up by Caesar?
"Reinforcements? Why didn't they send reinforcements first? Then, we can talk about counterattacking." One of the regiment commanders slammed his control panel angrily.
He didn't know what he slammed into, but the alarm in his cockpit rang. He was shocked and panicked. Finally, he managed to stabilize his mecha.
Luckily, they were only commanding from behind the defense line. If not, they would have been killed by the enemy just now.
However, it was also at this moment that he saw a blood-red countdown appear in the corner of his big screen. It was counting down rapidly.
"F * * k, when did the mainframe of the base become so powerful?" Mechas were controlled by their own optical supercomputer. The mainframe couldn't control the optical supercomputer of a mecha unless the mecha operator authorized it. However, now, the mainframe was able to synchronize with the optical supercomputer without authorization.
All the regiment commanders of the mecha clans were shocked and confused. Then, they saw a group of mechas suddenly appeared on the left side of the main battlefield. They were moving towards them at their fastest speed.
"F * * k, are the mecha operators from Caesar back?" They still remembered that not long ago, Caesar sent out two mecha clans to leave the battlefield. They were heading towards that direction. They knew that these mecha operators would definitely harm them. However, they were surrounded by the main force of Caesar so they couldn't send out any troops to stop them.
Now, some time had passed and the group of mechas appeared from that direction again. This made the mecha operators from the Federation think that the mecha operators from Caesar were back.
"No, that's not Caesar's mecha. It's our Federation's mecha." In the blink of an eye, the mecha's appearance appeared clearly. It was the standard ace mecha of the Federation.
