Very quickly, another week passed. This week, the base was very peaceful. After 250 Ace Mecha Clan snatched their supplies and invited all the regiment commanders and leaders of the mecha clans to a banquet, they didn't do anything. Many people who wanted to watch a good show were disappointed. One of them was Song Yiqing. Speaking of Song Yiqing, many people thought that he would take revenge on 250 Ace Mecha Clan soon. However, he didn't. He kept it in until now.
It wasn't because Song Yiqing was good at controlling his emotions. It was because he had contacted the Song family before. The Song family told him not to touch 250 Ace Mecha Clan in the 23rd division. They were like a hornet's nest. Song Yiqing wasn't stupid. Usually, people who could be the crown prince, or more accurately, the grandson of the crown prince, wouldn't act like those idiots in novels. They knew that there was a problem and they would have to pay the price for it.
Thus, Song Yiqing gave up on taking revenge. It was just a slap in the face. This made him feel embarrassed. However, it wasn't a huge grudge. There was nothing he couldn't let go of. Of course, he was still happy to see Du Mingyi go against 250 Ace Mecha Clan. He didn't mind giving him some convenience. However, that was all.
"Senior Colonel, something bad happened." Du Mingyi's adjutant suddenly rushed in with a pale face.
Du Mingyi, who was drinking tea in the base, almost threw the teacup in his hand. He hurriedly asked, "What's the rush? Tell me slowly. What happened?"
"The frontline command center sent an emergency order. Hailiya might launch a full-scale attack. They want our base to enter level one combat readiness." The adjutant took a deep breath and reported the order.
Du Mingyi hurriedly placed the teacup on the desk. Maybe he was too shocked, his hands were not steady. Clang! The teacup fell onto the desk and the documents on the desk were soaked with the tea. Du Mingyi was shocked.
The adjutant saw this and hurriedly went forward to pick up the documents. Then, he wanted to find a dry tissue to wipe the tea off. However, he heard Du Mingyi say angrily, "Why do you care about this? Hurry up and enter level one combat readiness."
"Oh, oh, yes, senior colonel!" The adjutant hurriedly threw the document on the desk and quickly ran out of the base commander's office to convey the colonel's order to the JMC department.
Not long after, the sound of a level one combat alert rang out in the base. All the armies were stunned. This level one combat alert meant that they could fight at any time. They had not received any information before, so why were they not given any time to prepare and directly entered the battle?
Du Mingyi was annoyed when he heard that the entire base was in a state of chaos. He slapped his cheeks with both of his hands.
"Xu Shiming's news is actually true. It's actually true. I actually missed this opportunity to make a contribution." If he chose to trust Xu Shiming and submitted this information to the frontline command, even if the frontline command did not take it seriously at that time, the military merit that belonged to him was already set in stone. No one could take it away from him.
Xu Shiming, who was in the reconnaissance team's camp, shook his head when he heard the notification. The reconnaissance team had already made battle preparations and could enter the battlefield at any time. Not only them, Cui Yunxuan's mecha clan, as well as the other mecha clans that chose to trust Ling Lan's information, had also made battle preparations. It could be said that these mecha clans were ready to enter the battlefield at any time. As for those mecha clans that were not prepared at all, they were not so lucky. They would definitely be in chaos for a period of time before they could truly enter the battlefield.
He could only hope that Hailiya's attack would be delayed for a period of time. Xu Shiming could only hope so. He still hoped that once the battle started, the entire base would enter battle mode. That would be the best outcome.
Beep, beep, beep. Xu Shiming's communicator suddenly rang. It said that Hailiya had started their attack. They had sent many mecha clans to the area around Base 013. The exact target of the attack was unknown. If the target of the attack was Base 013, they would arrive in 40 minutes.
Xu Shiming's expression instantly turned serious. He stood up abruptly and shouted, "Inform the entire team to head to the mecha hold and prepare for battle!"
40 minutes meant that they had to take action immediately. They had to find out the enemy's attack route as soon as possible and react accordingly. Even if they were not attacking Base 013, they had to report this to their allies. If they were really attacking Base 013, they had to stop them before they reached the base. If not, they would be trapped in the base and could only wait for reinforcements to arrive.
Of course, Xu Shiming's scout team was not the only one that was taking action. Cui Yunxuan's mecha clan and some other mecha clans were also taking action. However, they had to wait for the scout team to depart before they would board their mecha and eject. They would wait at the outermost defense line of the base and wait for further news from the scout team.
At this moment, 250 Ace Mecha Clan was also prepared for battle. More than 200 mecha operators were fully armed. Under the lead of their team leaders, they walked out of 250 Ace Mecha Clan's camp and rushed towards the mecha hold. Just like the other mecha clans, they would only board their mecha after the scout team left.
At this moment, in the mecha hold, Xu Shiming's scout team was the first to arrive. However, they were stopped at the entrance of the mecha hold. The reason was that without the orders of the commanding officer, the mecha hold couldn't be opened. Not only that, without the orders of the commanding officer, the logisticians of the base wouldn't provide any mecha equipment for the mecha operators.
Xu Shiming's expression was cold. He contacted the command center of the base and requested to open the mecha hold.
The staff at the command center asked him to wait for a moment. He would immediately consult the commanding officer and give him a reply.
Xu Shiming knew that this was a necessary procedure but now, he felt that this procedure was a waste of time. However, no matter how anxious Xu Shiming was, he could only wait patiently.
"Commanding officer, the leader of the scout team, Xu Shiming, requested to open the mecha hold for a reconnaissance mission. Can you let him in?" The staff hurriedly reported Xu Shiming's request to Du Mingyi.
"This Xu Shiming, why didn't he give me his battle plan first? How dare he bring his team to the mecha hold? Does he still respect me as the commanding officer of the base?" Du Mingyi, who was feeling frustrated, slammed the table angrily.
The staff was frightened. Just as he didn't know what to do, he heard the commanding officer ask, "Do you know which mecha clans are working with Xu Shiming?" Du Mingyi suddenly thought of something. Could this be a test? If he really gave in this time, no other regiment commander in this base would be willing to listen to his orders.
