1162. Stifling Battle
In an area 200 kilometers away from the frontlines, there was a human city – Grey City No. 18. In this city with a population of more than 200,000, Skynet's newly built Southeast Army Command Centre was located in the center of the city.
In the huge command centre, thousands of military officers walked back and forth, their faces filled with nervousness and apprehension. Among this group of officers, there were more than 10 people wearing sunglasses who were expressionlessly giving various orders to these people. These were impressively T-900 Terminators.
"There are a total of 79 confirmed divisions of the Guardian Group. That is to say, the number of troops in front of us has already exceeded 1.3 million! If this continues, our defensive line will not be able to hold on! "Watujin said coldly as he looked at a T-900 Terminator beside him.
There were only three stars left on his shoulder. Although Skynet did not directly send him to the labor camp as a slave like what they did to Beria, they still demoted him. However, considering that he was one of the few generals who had a lot of experience with the Guardian Group, he was still given the rank of Lieutenant General to assist Skynet in commanding the newly built Southeast Army Command Centre, a total of 1.2 million troops.
"According to the simulation, the current defensive line can hold on for more than three months." The T-900 said.
"Then have you thought about it, Skynet, how many cards do the Guardian Group have yet to play? That hovering Horned Dragon Tank, and that invincible Sky Fortress. If these forces enter the battlefield, can our defensive line hold on for another three months? "Watujin asked coldly.
"Once the Sky Fortress enters the battlefield, our air forces will concentrate on surrounding it. In front of 500 Interceptor fighter jets, it will not stand a chance. Once we have complete control of the air, we can chase away the enemy's commander's aircraft and bombard their ground forces. "Skynet replied through the T-900.
"Then have your simulation calculated the enemy's advanced robots?! For example, those robots that can support a shield, they have reduced the firepower efficiency of our defensive line by 50%! There's also the mechanical exoskeletons for human infantry, and those large robots that can easily destroy a Hunter Tank. Yes, those robots that are equipped with four cannons and multi-barreled missiles! In front of it, the Hunter Tank is nothing but trash! "Watujin roared as he slammed the table.
"The Hunter Tank is no longer suitable for the current battlefield, but before a new tank is developed, our main tank will still be it." Skynet said indifferently.
"So, while you're slowly developing new tanks, you're just going to let our base be trampled and destroyed?!" Watutin snorted coldly.
"Skynet has increased the production of the T-7 Terminator. With their agility and 50mm cannon, they can pose a threat to the enemy's heavy robots. At the same time, Reaper had developed the V2 model. In addition to the 200 Reaper V1 models currently deployed in the frontline, 50 Reaper V2 models were already on the way. The V2 Reaper can easily destroy the heavy robots of the Guardian Group, "Sky's Eye replied.
"50 units?! What was the use of 50 Reapers? So what if it could kill 1000 heavy robots? There were still only 50 of them! Now, in front of us, is a 2000-kilometer frontline, millions of soldiers!! "Watutin's face darkened.
"The Guardian Group will not have any effective weapons to threaten the Reaper V2 model. As the Reaper V2 is gradually put into production, its numbers will increase. In addition, the prototype of the Reaper V3 model is currently being designed, and is expected to be put into production within a year, "Skynet continued.
Watutin was so angry that he laughed. He looked at the T-900 coldly and said, "In other words, Skynet is prepared to use a small number of advanced weapons to fight against Tang Yu's steel torrent?"
"This is the most efficient use of the available resources. According to Skynet's calculations, Tang Yu may have mastered a technology that allows him to rapidly produce robots. Otherwise, the number of Hyperion robots would not have increased to a million in half a year. Therefore, using quality over quantity tactics was the right choice. As long as we can achieve the ideal exchange ratio, then no matter how many Hyperion robots Tang Yu produces, it will be useless, "Skynet said in detail.
"At the same time, Skynet has also increased the production of large caliber self-propelled artillery. According to intelligence, Tang Yu used the chassis of the Hunter Tank to modify the Black Tortoise self-propelled artillery. It was very effective, so Skynet made a copy of this self-propelled artillery, codenamed the Hunter Artillery. Therefore, Skynet's support for the war is comprehensive, and your mission is to hold the frontline until Ruan Qingshui's report of victory on the Western Front arrives, "Skynet continued.
Watutin fell back on the sofa, crossed his arms, and smiled coldly, but did not say another word.
…
Skynet's labor camp, outside of Stularo, the fierce exchange of fire was still ongoing. The defending troops of Skynet were already overwhelmed, and after Tang Yu pressed in this direction with eight divisions of reserve troops, the situation became even more critical!
The former commander of the Gray Army's 2nd Armored Regiment, Lieutenant Colonel Clichy, was now Captain Clichy. Because of his early escape during the last battle, he was demoted to Captain Company Commander, leading an infantry company to defend this area. At the beginning, Captain Clichy was still very proud of himself. He felt that his previous defeat was completely because the Guardian Group had waited for him to exhaust himself, relying on their strong defense system to embarrass them. But now, they were the ones waiting for him to exhaust himself!!
But when the war started again, Captain Clichy felt like he had been slapped in the face! Not for anything else, but because the Guardian Group's army that appeared in front of him was completely beyond his imagination! These square Hyperion robots looked even more like robots than the skeleton-shaped Terminators, and even colder! And the number of robots that covered the mountains made Clichy want to cry, but no tears came out. Now, he just wanted to grab the enemy leader called Tang Yu, and loudly complain. Are you the Mechanical Calamity, or is Skynet the Mechanical Calamity!? Why do you have more robots under you than Skynet!!?? How can you bully people like this?
Up until now, Clichy's company had already lost more than 20 people and more than 50 Terminators. Moreover, their frontline had been forced to retreat more than 10 kilometers, and they were completely helpless against the Guardian Group's offensive! If Clichy was asked which type of robot from the Guardian Group he hated the most, he would definitely choose the Iron Curtain Loader!
This type of robot was not big, and it was not armed, nor did it have heavy armor, but it was an existence that brought about a qualitative change to the Guardian Group's army! The Iron Curtain Loader ran very fast. It was only about 1.5 meters tall, and with digital camouflage, it was very inconspicuous on the battlefield and very difficult to hit.
However, the most annoying thing was that when this type of robot seized the opportunity to spread out on the frontline, it would form a semi-circular energy shield with a diameter of at least 10 to 20 meters around it! This energy shield was very strong. Clichy had tried it before. He mobilized the company's mortar platoon and a large number of rocket launchers to carry out a concentrated bombardment on the energy shield of an Iron Curtain Loader. In the end, the energy shield was overloaded and shattered after being hit by more than 70 mortars and more than 50 rocket launchers! This did not include the countless stray bullets that hit the shield on the battlefield!
In other words, he had used the heavy firepower of half an infantry company to bombard an Iron Curtain Loader for 10 minutes before it was effective! However, under the cover of the Iron Curtain Loader, the Guardian Group's robots could easily rush to a place very close to their position and fire freely. This made the fortifications they had built useless! Clichy often saw robots that could launch rocket launchers standing so casually within the range of the Iron Curtain Loader's shield, raining rocket launchers on them one after another! Unfortunately, they could only watch!
Of course, because of Captain Clichy's experiment, there was a gap in the firepower of the position he was defending. The surrounding friendly forces could not resist the tide-like offensive of the Guardian Group and were forced to abandon the position and retreat. Even the surrounding position, a total of three kilometers long, had to be abandoned.
However, Captain Clichy did not regret it because he thought that his experiment was useful. He had found the upper limit of the Iron Curtain Loader's shield energy, which was definitely useful in the battle! There was no doubt about Captain Clichy's loyalty to Skynet, so he reported the results of his experiment to the battalion headquarters.
