On the edge of Guanghan City, the temporary safe zone set up by East Asia Power engineers.
A man in ragged clothes hesitated for a while, walked in Xie Tian's direction, and stood in front of him.
"Sorry."
Hearing the voice coming out from the side, Xie Tian was slightly stunned. He then looked to the side and saw a man about 30 years old standing next to him with a guilty expression on his face.
Xie Tian didn't quite understand why this person suddenly apologized. He smiled and asked casually.
"Have we met before?"
"Half a month ago … We met on the Lunar Space." The man smiled bitterly and said with a complicated expression, "Although you may not remember me …"
Hearing these words, Xie Tian finally remembered where he had seen this person.
It was just that he really didn't expect this world to be so small.
"Let bygones be bygones. As you said, it was half a month ago."
Seeing that Xie Tian didn't intend to pursue his past actions, the expression on the man's face struggled for a while. He finally couldn't help but ask.
"Why …"
"No reason." As if knowing what he was going to ask, Xie Tian interrupted him and said, "Because we are compatriots. Is this reason enough?"
The expression on the man's face went from stunned to silence, and finally to shame. It only took half a minute.
He wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything in the end. He just silently nodded to Xie Tian to express his gratitude and respect, then turned around and walked away.
At this time, Jia Siyuan walked over here.
He glanced at the man's back and spoke.
"That person didn't make trouble for you, right?"
Xie Tian smiled and said, "Why would he make trouble for me?"
Jia Siyuan shrugged and said, "I still don't trust those Moon people too much. You said that there are robots all over the world, so why did they have a problem? "
"I don't agree with this practice of looking for problems from the victims. In theory, similar things can happen anywhere in the world. It just happened to happen to them."
At this point, Xie Tian paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled and continued.
"As for the problem of trust, we will slowly get used to it in the future. We still have a long way to go to deal with them."
At this moment, the pitch-black sky suddenly brightened a little.
Everyone silently stopped what they were doing and raised their heads to look at the boundless cold night.
No one spoke.
But everyone was well aware of what was about to happen.
Xie Tian muttered to himself as he looked up at the transparent dome above his head and at the speck of light separating from the starship.
"He's here."
…
At the point where the sky and the earth met, streaks of azure fire foxes flashed.
Long shuttle-shaped heavy landing craft silently cut through the boundless cold night, piercing the space cabins and transportation hubs in Guanghan City like daggers.
The heavy landing craft that smashed into the space cabin was like a high-explosive armor-piercing bullet. The moment the front of the landing craft pierced through the armor, it fired a deadly high-temperature metal jet into the space cabin.
In a gravity-free environment, the flying metal droplets were like deadly projectiles, wreaking havoc in the space cabin. Most of the robot soldiers leaning behind the bunker were instantly destroyed.
After the metal droplets came into contact with the wall and cooled down, the orbital airborne soldiers in the landing craft immediately poured out of the front opening and launched a fierce offensive under the cover of the drone swarm.
Unlike the Seventh Armed Brigade, which used police light weapons, the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade, armed to the teeth, was not only equipped with heavy kinetic skeletons but also power armor that served as mobile bunkers and unmanned attack vehicles that served as ground fire support platforms.
On the robot rebel army's side, although they had an absolute advantage in number and were not afraid of death when attacking, their weapons and ammunition were not unlimited.
As the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade completely cut off the retreat route of the robot rebel army, the frontline robot troops that had lost their reserve soldiers immediately began to collapse at a speed visible to the naked eye.
With the landing of the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade, this battle, which had been in a stalemate for a whole week, came to an end in just one hour.
Facing the smoke-filled battlefield, many soldiers of the Seventh Armed Brigade didn't even react to what happened. They watched the enemy retreat like a tide.
Just as they were discussing whether or not they should follow up on their victory, everything was already over.
Li Gaoliang, wearing an exoskeleton armor, crossed the smoke-filled traffic pipe and came to the position of the Seventh Armed Brigade. He met the commander of this force.
After the two saluted each other, Li Gaoliang spoke concisely.
"From now on, we will take over the frontline. Thank you for your hard work."
"Not at all … But I have to say that you came at the right time. If it were two days later, we would have to consider blowing up the traffic tunnel leading to the air purification center. "The commander continued jokingly," If you need any help, please don't hesitate. Although we are not particularly good at attacking, we have no problem defending. "
Li Gaoliang shook his head and spoke.
"No need, the battle will end today or tomorrow. They won't have a chance to breathe. If you have extra energy, help us clean up the battlefield and help the wounded in the war. "
Hearing this, the commander of the 7th Armed Brigade sighed in his heart.
No wonder they are the trump card of the Pan-Asian Aerospace Force.
The battle would end today or tomorrow. Perhaps only the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade had the confidence to say such things.
But in fact, the current situation of the battle was indeed like this.
The combat units of the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade had dismembered the frontline troops of the robot rebel army and surrounded the main force of the robot army.
There was basically no suspense in the rest of the battle. With the continuous advancement of the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade, all the robot rebels would be compressed into a narrow area.
At that time, whether it was summoning orbital weapons or pushing armored forces in, the choice would be in the hands of the Pan-Asian First Fleet.
At this point, the war was over.
At this moment, a soldier wearing an kinetic skeleton suddenly crossed the smoke-filled passage and walked quickly toward Li Gaoliang.
"Sir!"
Li Gaoliang looked at the soldier and asked.
"What's wrong?"
"When our Second Company advanced to the Xicheng District, we found a rare earth refining factory occupied by robots in the A113 area. According to the intelligence collected from the frontline, there is a modified military ammunition production line there … "
Li Gaoliang: "Did you take it down?"
"Rather than saying that we defeated them, it's better to say that … we didn't encounter any effective resistance at all." There was a trace of struggle in the soldier's eyes. He hesitated for a long time and finally gritted his teeth and said.
"There, we found 1,024 residents of Guanghan City who were captured by the rebels …"
Li Gaoliang frowned and asked cautiously, sensing a hint of uneasiness in his tone.
"Have they been saved?"
"No …"
The soldier lowered his head and said in a heavy voice.
"When we found them, they were already corpses …"
