1752. Second Battle of the Grand Canyon (Part 2)
About 10 kilometers away from the Grand Canyon Base, a large US Army was assembling there. From the serial numbers on the jeeps and armored vehicles, it could be seen that this army was the 7th Light Infantry Division of the US Army.
The temporary command center was set up in the middle of a mountain. It was surrounded by camouflage netting, with dead branches and leaves hanging. A soldier rushed into the command center and took out a stack of photos from the satchel at his waist. He handed it over and said, "Colonel, the aerial photos have been sent back. We lost a UH-1 helicopter. Those robots will fire at anything that gets close to the battlefield, but they won't chase after it."
The division commander returned the soldier's salute and said, "How's the situation?"
"Those X-Force robots are indeed heading for the Guardian Group. They are now besieging the Grand Canyon Base. Currently, the first batch of robots that joined the battle numbered about 40000, but they have already broken through the outer defense line of the Grand Canyon Base. Now, there are more robots joining the battle, "the soldier replied.
The division commander took out the photos and started flipping through them. They were all aerial photos taken by the scouts in the UH-1 helicopter. However, even from far away, they could still see the monstrous formation of the 100,000 robot army. The densely packed phalanx of robots was pressing towards the base.
There were also some photos taken from a closer distance. There were photos of the Grand Canyon Base's tenacious defense, as well as the scene of the robots fighting against each other. It was clear that the battle was very fierce. There were many attacking X-Force robots, but they were basically only equipped with light weapons. The robots and mercenaries defending the base had a lot more diverse weapons, such as rocket launchers, mortars, machine guns on fixed turrets, and some anti-tank cannons. However, the huge difference in numbers between the two sides could not be made up.
The division commander touched his forehead, feeling a headache coming on. He ordered, "Order all artillery units to be ready for battle. Infantry units, start digging trenches and building bunkers. Prepare for the robot army's attack!"
"Yes!" the soldier replied loudly, saluted, turned around, and walked out.
"Colonel, these are 100,000 robots, not 100,000 pigs. If they really attack us, it will be very difficult for us to stop them …" a staff officer said worriedly.
"These robots lack ammunition and supplies. How many bullets can they carry? At most, 1,000 rounds. It would be better if they didn't come. If they really wanted to attack head-on, we had cannons, tanks, and helicopters. We were confident that we could defeat a hundred thousand robots that lacked ammunition. However, if we take the initiative to attack, the situation will be different, "the division commander said slowly," So, we just have to defend our position. "
"Understood," the staff officer replied.
The division commander stood up and continued to order, "Have the helicopter unit patrol in the other direction of the base and stay away from those robots. They won't take the initiative to attack us for now. The Ministry of National Defense is currently forming an army to stabilize the situation here, and our most important mission is to capture Tang Yu!! "
"Yes!"
…
Grand Canyon Base, core area.
In the most critical and core area of the base, a large number of technical workers and staff of the Guardian Group were hiding in fear. This place was absolutely safe. After all, it was 200 meters underground, and the only way to communicate with the outside world was through the maglev subway.
However, everyone had an expression of fear on their faces, because the base was now surrounded by 100,000 traitorous robots, and no one felt good about it. They looked at the robots around them and could not help but stay away from them. What if they suddenly rebelled again?
Kayla and Emma were maintaining order with a group of security personnel. They set up tents, arranged accommodation, distributed food, and comforted the people.
On the other side, Trask and several senior technicians were studying the wreckage of a MK-X. These three Sentinel MK-Xs were originally left behind by Tang Yu in consideration of the lack of combat power in the base. He did not expect them to become a factor that almost caused the base to completely collapse.
Even if there were only three MK-Xs, if they suddenly caused a ruckus in the base, the weapons from the 60s would not be able to match up to them. They destroyed a large number of G-1 engineering robots and Sentinel T-3 robots, which directly led to the defense forces of the outer ring of the base being stretched thin.
In the end, it was Peacock's sudden appearance that destroyed the three MK-Xs and prevented the situation from further deteriorating. Otherwise, the Grand Canyon Base might have been captured long ago. In the face of the endless number of traitorous robots, Trask, Kayla, and even Emma would have been in a desperate situation!
Rumble ~ Rumble ~ The subway came again. The door opened, and another group of technicians came down. They began to instruct the G-1 engineering robots to carry the goods down, most of which were daily necessities. Soon, Peacock also came down from the subway. She said to Trask, "Now that the traitorous robots have attacked the base and are wantonly destroying it, this is the last subway. Then, destroy the subway. "
"Destroy the subway!! Miss, are you f * cking kidding me? Do you want to lock us in this damn place 200 meters underground? " A group of mercenaries next to her immediately shouted when they heard Peacock's words. Not only that, but the surrounding staff also looked at Peacock and the subway in extreme horror. Anxiety was spreading.
Peacock did not object. She smiled and said, "It's precisely because this subway is the only way to connect to the outside world that we have to destroy it. Even if it's closed, what if someone secretly opens the subway and wants to escape? If they can't escape and bring back a large number of traitorous robots, it won't be fun. "
"F * ck!! Our contract doesn't have such a clause! Not only do we have to fight those robots, but we also have to be locked underground!! "The mercenary shouted.
"We will continue to hire you for ten times the price. From now on, you don't need to fight the robots, but you need to help us stabilize the order here. "Peacock said.
"Ten times? Hehe, does your Guardian Group still have money? Huh? "The mercenary sneered.
"Directly pay with gold." Peacock did not stand on ceremony. She directly raised her hand and took out a large pile of gold from her personal space and piled it up. "At most, you will stay here for a month. Within a month, the robots outside will be dealt with, and this gold will be the payment for everyone. I mean, everyone here. "
When everyone saw the pile of gold, their eyes revealed a look of greed. However, at this moment, there was a sudden boom! Boom! There was an explosion. No one knew what Peacock had done, but the only subway that could enter and exit had been destroyed by her!!
"You!" A mercenary was flustered and exasperated. He raised his gun and aimed at Peacock! But then he remembered that the seemingly delicate beauty in front of him was actually a terrifying mutant. Spatial ability! He slowly put down his gun.
The atmosphere at the scene became strange. Everyone's face was gloomy. When they thought of staying in this place for a month, they felt a wave of fear and annoyance in their hearts.
"Do you have any plans? Peacock. "Kyla also came over and asked.
"I will leave here temporarily." Peacock replied.
"Hmph! You are a spatial ability user, of course you can leave at will! "A technician said angrily.
"But, we will come back! Come back and solve everything! "Peacock continued.
