West Line.
Jia rural area, six kilometers from the Jia Sports Center, Cheng Weiguo set up a temporary command center.
At this moment, he was standing in front of the holographic map, fiercely pointing at the various roads on the map with his finger, and then an offensive red arrow appeared, giving orders to the team under his command.
"Team 8, attention. The mutated humans deployed a large number of anti-air machine guns in the Sanshui Bay Park. Your mission is to follow this route and break through the mutated human infantry's defense line and take out their anti-air machine guns. Do you understand? "
"Understood!"
"Team 5, from … Dammit." Cheng Weiguo raised his head and looked at the orange ball of light that exploded in the air.
The wide-area electromagnetic interference bomb could disrupt the radio communication in the area within an hour.
Cheng Weiguo cursed in his mind as he threw the earpiece filled with static on the table and sat back down in his chair. The radio communication interference was effective against both sides. Without a commander, the troops on the frontline could only maintain their current deployment and fight separately.
The pointless tactic could only stall time as both sides couldn't redeploy their forces. But the mutated humans didn't seem to need to make any new deployments. As the defensive side, they only needed to hold their ground.
The constant sound of cannon fire made Cheng Weiguo feel annoyed. The mutated humans' stalling tactic made him feel uneasy.
The mutated humans had a lot of good stuff on their hands. It looked like the Dusk Church wasn't easy to deal with.
Soon, a soldier with a rifle ran in front of him.
Cheng Weiguo took a deep breath and said to him.
"Notify team 4 to advance along Nanxi Road to the intersection …"
Different from Wanghai's terrain, Jia's crisscrossed river environment made it easy to defend and difficult to attack. As the mutated humans' command center, the Jia Sports Center was surrounded by layers of rivers.
To defend against the NAC First Division's attack, the mutated humans learned to be smart. They blew up all the bridges and hid inside the defense line. But the rivers caused a lot of trouble for NAC's armored units.
On the first day of the attack, NAC's armored force was blocked at the highway entrance on the west side of Jia. The bridge across the river was blown into pieces. To allow the armored force to cross the river, Wang Zhaowu spent a lot of effort.
First, the cannons bombarded the Mutated Humans on the other side of the river. Then, the infantry moved forward to build a pontoon bridge. After occupying the other side of the river, the armored forces passed through.
The tanks crossed the river, and the situation instantly became much more optimistic. The armored vanguard opened the way, and the infantry followed closely behind.
The mutated humans threw away their armor and fled in panic after attacking the city for a distance of four kilometers.
But soon, the situation became serious again.
As they entered the city, the number of rivers increased instead of decreasing, and the advancement of the armored forces was once again hindered.
The defeat in the Seventh Area made the mutated humans realize the ferocity of NAC's armored force, so they set up defenses along the river and persisted in their urban warfare strategy. The mutated humans in Jia City were much harder to deal with than the mutated humans in the Seventh Area.
In addition to the headache-inducing anti-tank cannons and mortars, the Mutants even managed to get their hands on a tactical nuclear bomb. Without the protection of armor, two hundred Light Infantry soldiers instantly fell, and one Tiger II also broke down.
Fortunately, the people who died were mostly new recruits recruited from the Seventh Area. Cheng Weiguo's brows only twitched, but he didn't feel too bad about it.
But while he didn't feel bad about it, the battle situation became even more intense. To prevent the mutated humans from using the tactical nuclear bomb, Cheng Weiguo had to lengthen the battle line and give up the strategy of group attack.
The mutated humans must be commanded by a human!
…
There were twenty thousand mutated humans in Jia City, five times the number of the First Corp. Although the First Corp was equipped with a large amount of heavy firepower and armored units, due to the crisscrossing rivers, they still fell into a tough battle.
"The blitzkrieg attack is blocked. The First Corp probably won't be able to take Jia City in a short period of time." Han Junhua crossed her arms and looked at the holographic map.
"I told you, fighting on two fronts is too crazy."
Sun Jiao pouted and fart. She sat down on the sofa.
"Did you not consider the possibility of the mutated humans blowing up the bridge?" Jiang Chen looked at Han Junhua.
"A total of 217 bridges were destroyed. Based on PAC's standard for highway bridges, destroying a bridge requires at least 600 kilograms of explosives, "Han Junhua said emotionlessly.
130.2 tons of explosives, the mutated humans' supplies were too abundant.
"Fu * k, where did the beasts get so many explosives?" Sun Jiao cursed out.
130 tons, even if they scoured the entire Sixth Street, they wouldn't be able to get this many explosives. Even if the Dusk was wealthy, they were still a force that migrated from the Northern Alliance Area. It didn't make sense for them to carry so many things.
"Maybe it's not explosives," Jiang Chen suddenly said.
Han Junhua and Sun Jiao looked at Jiang Chen at the same time. Suddenly, Sun Jiao seemed to have understood something.
"Crystals!"
"That's right. Sun Xiaorou said that her ability was induced through genetic engineering, and not simply evolved by drinking genetic medicine. Which means her ability is not the only one in the Dusk, "Jiang Chen said with a serious expression.
The ability to explode crystals.
Everyone knew that mutated humans and humans were mortal enemies. Both parties only existed in the form of robbery and slavery. There was no trade. They obtained their food by hunting mutants. In the past decade, they must have accumulated a large amount of crystals that they couldn't use.
Others couldn't afford it, but the mutated humans didn't care.
"What are you guys talking about?" Han Junhua looked at the two and didn't understand.
Jiang Chen and Sun Jiao looked at each other and then told Han Junhua about Sun Xiaorou.
Han Junhua lowered her head and pondered for a moment.
"I have a question that I don't understand. How did the Dusk establish a partnership with the mutated humans? Did you ask Sun Xiaorou? "
Sun Jiao shook her head. She wouldn't let her sister recall that memory.
Han Junhua looked at Jiang Chen with a questioning gaze.
"The mutated humans need to improve the FEV virus to gain the ability to reproduce, and the Dusk needs the Eden technology from Fallout Shelter 05. Both parties have the same interest, and the Dusk will eventually leave the earth without leaving a trace. Therefore, there will be no conflict between the two parties in the future. "Jiang Chen organized the known information in his head and simply stated.
"Project Eden? When I was a division commander in the 71st Mechanical Division, I heard that a national research institute in Wanghai City was responsible for this research. Once the technology breakthrough is successful, the problem of colonization can be solved. "Han Junhua rubbed her chin as she muttered to herself.
"What if we provide the FEV virus to the mutated humans and let them fight among themselves?" Sun Jiao suggested.
"Impossible. Once we do that, the short-term problem would be gone, but the long-term problem would be huge. "Jiang Chen smiled wryly.
He considered this question before, but he quickly rejected it. The mutated humans without the ability to reproduce would no longer need to rely on capturing and captive humans to reproduce. It would be a disaster for all the survivors on the wasteland.
He had to admit that the ugly mutated humans were more suitable for this land. They could chew the Death Claw meat that was more toxic than rat poison and eat raw mutated fruits that didn't require any processing. If the mutated humans also gained the ability to reproduce, then humans would have no way to survive.
Suddenly, Han Junhua looked up at Jiang Chen.
"What if we change our perspective? We can first find Fallout Shelter 05 and then provide the Eden Project to the Dusk to make them lose the motivation to control Wanghai City. Without external aid and the production line of the Seventh Area, the mutated humans will collapse on their own. "
