Although there was no flag indicating their identity, no one would come to this place at this time except for the Northern Alliance Area.
After witnessing the 500-strong force, the frontline post immediately sent an alert to the headquarters. At the same time, the Second Legion stationed in Wu City urgently assembled in a combat position and prepared for war.
Wu City's local mercenaries were also mobilized. Although their combat effectiveness was poor, these people were all good at DIY and operating robots. As locals, they could make full use of the terrain to fight against the offensive of the Northern Alliance Area.
After sending cannon fodder to contact the NAC, the Northern Alliance Area stationed in the suburbs north of Wu City and started to compete with the NAC Second Division for control of the area with a small force to weaken the destructive effect of artillery support.
Because of the snowstorm, visibility in the air was extremely low, and the difficulty of flight was greatly increased. The air superiority brought by the Aurora-20 was negligible under the threat of the air defense weapons of the Northern Alliance Area. As Wang Zhaowu expected, it would be a tough battle.
The news of the outbreak of the war quickly spread to Wanghai through radio.
…
"If the climate environment is as predicted by the Meteorological Observatory in Shangjing, the world will usher in a Little Ice Age caused by radiation dust, and the surface environment will no longer be suitable for human survival. In other words, the cost of living on the ground will be much higher than underground. " Speaking of this, Kong Qian looked at Jiang Chen seriously and proposed, "According to the plan we have developed, if we transform the Wanghai Metro, it can be transformed into a large underground shelter facility that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people. Once the surface climate is so bad that it is uninhabitable, we at least have a way out. "
"Moving underground? Have you considered the problem of energy? "Jiang Chen said in a deep voice.
If there was no energy, even if the production and living facilities were transferred underground, it would just be digging a grave for themselves.
"Of course, energy is a problem that cannot be ignored." Kong Qian nodded and agreed with Jiang Chen's point of view. "We thought of two plans. One is to use geothermal energy, and the other is to deploy ocean current generators in coastal areas."
No matter how bad the climate was, it was absolutely impossible to freeze the ocean. Geothermal energy was also an inexhaustible energy source … However, what made Jiang Chen hesitant was not the problem of energy. After all, the lunar colony in the modern world had already begun to take shape. As long as he wanted, he could get some helium-3 from the modern world at any time. As for the other raw material for nuclear fusion, deuterium, there was plenty of it in the ocean.
After a long silence, Jiang Chen said.
"Let's hope we never have to use that."
"I know this is a difficult choice, but we must face this reality." Kong Qian nodded. "We are willing to undertake this project with NAC."
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Chen gave a relatively conservative answer, "… We can't invest too many resources into the subway reconstruction project in the near future. After all, no one can expect the invaders from the north to put aside their prejudice against us because of the climate. But I promise, when we have time, we will seriously consider this matter. "
Kong Qian was slightly disappointed that he didn't get a direct answer from Jiang Chen, but he also expressed understanding for the problems NAC was currently facing. After all, compared to the nuclear winter and the Little Ice Age, the Northern Alliance Area with tanks was a more imminent crisis.
"We await your reply, and hope that it will not be too late. If there's nothing else, then I'll take my leave for now, "Kong Qian replied respectfully.
"Mhmm, you can go now." Jiang Chen nodded and then looked at Wang Qin, who had been standing on the side without speaking. "Wang Qin, go to the warehouse and get a box of Anxi Tie Guanyin for President Kong."
Kong Qian was slightly moved. He looked at Jiang Chen eagerly and bowed again. "Thank you, General!"
Jiang Chen smiled lightly. "You're welcome."
These luxury goods were only tens of thousands of RMB for him. They were not rare. But for these wealthy businessmen on the wasteland, this box of natural and pollution-free tea was something they couldn't buy even if they had the money.
Brewing a cup of high-quality tea, savoring the taste from before the war, and recalling the beautiful life before the war, was simply a supreme enjoyment for these people with high authority.
Giving small favors could not only win people's hearts but also strengthen the alliance between the two sides.
After Kong Qian left, Jiang Chen planned to go to the software development department before returning to the mansion. But at this moment, Han Junhua walked into the office eagerly.
"The people of the Northern Alliance Area have arrived in Wu City, and the Second Division led by Wang Zhaowu is the First Legion of the Northern Alliance Area."
After hearing this news, Jiang Chen's pupils shrank slightly.
Although there was a glimmer of hope, this moment had finally arrived.
The flames of war had been ignited.
…
Pulling the trigger in his hand, Hu Cheng lay behind the concrete bunker and fired back at the soldiers of the Northern Alliance Area wearing polar camouflage. The snowstorm roared above his head. To hit someone in such weather, it almost depended on luck.
Swoosh —
Hu Cheng suddenly buried his head, and the bullets whizzed past his scalp. Cold sweat formed ice shards on the tips of his hair. He skillfully reloaded, moved two steps to the bunker next to him, and once again poked the rifle out of the bunker to return fire.
"Tutututu-!"
Vaguely, he saw through the crosshair that a few streaks of bright red appeared on the white snowdrift on the opposite side. The rifle wrapped in white strips fell on the snow on the side. There were no screams, or the wails of being shot were drowned in the roaring storm. A hand stretched out from behind the bunker on the opposite side and dragged the body behind the bunker.
Kill confirmed!
Leaning against the cold bunker, Hu Cheng gasped for air. There was no joy on his face, only the joy of surviving a disaster. He was one of the people who joined NAC relatively early. He participated in the battle against the mutated humans in the Seventh Area and also participated in the expedition against Hongcheng. But these wars undoubtedly had one characteristic, that was, NAC stood on the absolute advantage.
Faced with the harvesting of the drones and the barrage of rockets, the mutated humans were forced to retreat with overwhelming force. In the face of the giant cannon of "Order", the survivors of Hongcheng could only surrender under the shadow of the steel airship.
However, the Northern Alliance Area was different. The other party inherited the pre-war armed forces of Pan-Asia Cooperation and modern military thinking …
Hu Cheng gritted his teeth, continued to poke out of the bunker, and raised his rifle to return fire.
He chose not to think about the outcome of this war and left everything to Wang Zhaowu, the commander of the Second Army. As a soldier, all he needed to do was kill the enemy and kill as many enemies as possible before he died!
Only in this way could he survive this hell that was sealed in ice and snow …
On the main battlefield two streets away, drones swarmed to the Northern Alliance Area's position like a tide. However, under the blockade of EMP weapons, these hummingbirds all became headless flies. On the battlefield with equivalent technological content, these flexible killing machines became cannon fodder. In order to consume the EMP weapons of the Northern Alliance Area, they formed attack formations in twos and threes and rushed to their positions.
The armored vehicles of the Northern Alliance Area smashed through the concrete wall and drove into the middle of the street. They used the front armor to resist the bullets and used the machine guns on the top to strafe the NAC position. The NAC shooters couldn't even lift their heads and covered their own infantry's advance.
However, the decline did not last for long. A mass bullet pierced through the armor. The armored vehicle exploded, and the NAC shooters immediately poked out of the bunker to return fire. They killed all the Northern Alliance Area soldiers who were halfway through their charge on the empty road.
The Type-50 electromagnetic pulse cannon ambushed on the bell tower not far away played a miraculous role like a sniper rifle. However, the orange-red trajectory exposed the position of the gunners, and soon a high-explosive bomb hit the bell tower. When the dust dissipated, the top of the bell tower had been cut off, and the Type-50 electromagnetic pulse cannon could no longer be seen.
The battle was extremely tragic, and the northern suburbs of Wu City were covered with dark smoke.
Overall, NAC, as the defensive side, still had the advantage.
Until the appearance of the Wanderer tank …
