Chapter 1259: Three Days of Separation, Shielding and Anti-Shielding!
Tianyuan Search and Rescue Team.
This special organization that came into being has long surpassed the scope of ordinary troops and guards and has become a unique existence in the territory.
Long before Su Mo withdrew from the competition and announced the official start of a large-scale search and rescue of 1,000 kilometers, its number of people had reached 500.
Now, after a week of brewing and planning, the number of people has directly exceeded 800 and rushed to over 1,000!
To be frank.
Compared with those experienced professional search and rescue teams on Earth, the Tianyuan Search and Rescue Team may be inferior.
But if compared with combat effectiveness, this search and rescue team that enjoys the privilege of direct funding from the underground city and does not need to go through the cumbersome process of the entire account of the territory is definitely the first.
As a special organization that enjoys the latest equipment, the search and rescue team can be said to be armed to the teeth. Not only are they equipped with independent combat armored vehicles according to the squad, but they are also equipped with various advanced weapons and reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance facilities.
Once they encounter a small-scale alien race, they can directly transform into a combat unit and annihilate them on the spot.
As for combat, at first the members of the rescue team were just ordinary people that Bao Lei summoned from the territory for training, but recently most of the newcomers have all come from the most elite troops in the territory, the Tianyuan Army.
These soldiers who have participated in expeditions and have no new wars to participate in recently are almost sick of idleness.
Almost everyone wants to get in when they get the chance to wander around and fight outside.
At this time, they encountered a group of blue star people of unknown origin, and the entire rescue team immediately showed unparalleled coordinated combat capabilities!
From the 76th second after the signal was sent, the eight scattered personnel were all captured.
And before the enemy came to support, they quickly retreated to form a defensive counterattack position.
"I thought they were a group of tough guys, but I didn't expect them to surrender before they could move twice!"
As the captain of the rescue team 11, Tian Dadong shook his head regretfully and was not satisfied with the result.
In his opinion, the will to survive of this group of people is far less strong than that of the people of the harvest tribe, not to mention compared with the brutal aliens.
When their group was infected with the Hell Flower and abandoned, no one gave up.
But now these people are still able to fight back and hold the rescue team until they arrive.
But because the difference in numbers between the two sides is too large, they directly chose to surrender with their hands clasped around their heads.
Tsk tsk.
If this is brought back to the territory, I'm afraid it won't even be considered a fifth-class merit, right?
"Captain, their support seems to be coming."
Just as Tian Dadong's thoughts could not help but drift away, a soldier next to him came over and reminded him.
Rescue Team 11, a total of 28 people.
Equipped with two armored vehicles, two anti-armor guns, four heavy machine guns, and several supporting facilities.
To be honest, even if they encounter hundreds or even thousands of aliens, the rescue team is not afraid.
As long as the armored vehicles start and the machine guns start.
Dealing with aliens with poor mobility is as simple as Mongolian cavalry dealing with Japanese samurai.
A few rounds will kill the opponent without leaving a single piece of armor.
Therefore, each search and rescue team actually wants to encounter some tough guys and earn military merit from them.
After all, whether it is to develop the team's equipment or to promote individuals, military industry is a rigid demand.
"Get ready. If the opponent is weak, we will directly attack. If the opponent is strong, we will counterattack. By the way, contact the search and rescue team next to us first and let them be ready to join us at any time."
Between enjoying military merit alone and following the regulations of the search and rescue team, Tian Dadong showed a rare clarity and rationality.
As a person who has been on the verge of life and death, he knows the preciousness and difficulty of all this. Therefore, he is extremely cautious about every decision and dare not slack off.
However, what is surprising is that.
Just a few seconds after Tian Dadong's order was issued, the liaison officer in the armored vehicle suddenly exclaimed.
"We encountered strong interference and our external communication signal was cut off!"
"What?!"
Since the installation of the latest anti-interference equipment produced by the researchers, the entire search and rescue team has not heard of the signal being blocked for a long time.
Even the mole guys in the southern suburbs currently have no way to directly detect the movements of the search and rescue team, let alone use interference facilities to block the signal.
"Release the emergency contact signal directly!"
Like a huge rock weighing heavily on his heart, Tian Dadong made a prompt decision.
He understood that the opponent he encountered this time might be much more powerful than he imagined.
But he also knew that as the captain of the search and rescue team, he must not lose his composure at this time. He must quickly adjust his mentality and lead the team members to face this sudden challenge together.
Soon, the top of the armored vehicle suddenly opened, revealing two dark windows staring at the sky.
Then the continuous red flame bombs rose into the sky like an angry fire dragon.
The flame bombs drew a series of hot tracks in the foggy sky until 1 outlined a huge lightning symbol in the sky, and then slowly stopped.
This symbol is a distress signal that the search and rescue team can only send when it encounters the most urgent situation.
This is a distress signal that can only be sent when it encounters the most urgent situation.
And now, it seems that time has come!
"Oh, Captain, it looks like this group of people has support?"
The assault team wearing power armor saw the flame bombs exploding in the sky before they went to the signal point.
A frivolous team member whistled and glanced at Luke standing in the middle of the team.
Previously, when the Red Spider Caravan was at its peak, there were only sixteen guards, including Luke, the captain of the guard.
Among them, there were only ten power armors, and the rest were wearing lower-level exoskeleton armors.
Relying on the name of the Foundation, the Red Spider Caravan has hardly encountered too much danger.
So to some extent, these guards are more like mascots, for other members of the caravan to see, and have no practical external significance.
However, the situation has changed dramatically now, and everyone has come to a strange world.
Here, no one knows whether the name of the Foundation is still useful.
Or in other words, before the Foundation uses hard power to make a name for itself again, it will definitely not work to rely on the glory of the past.
Therefore, in order to ensure the success of this large-scale transaction, Sean spent a lot of money to recruit a wave of soldiers.
Now the guards of the Red Spider Caravan have expanded to an unprecedented 45 people.
Among them, the number of people with power armor accounts for nearly half, and there are 21 people wearing armor.
The remaining twenty-four people were all equipped with exoskeleton armor produced by the Foundation, and the lineup was luxurious.
In addition to sufficient ammunition and logistical support, as well as the high-tech equipment that the Red Spider Caravan was originally equipped with.
When encountering aliens, they were almost pure crushing, and when encountering humans, they were as steady as an old dog.
"Come on, come on, are we still afraid of them? Have you forgotten the fate of the previous group of people?"
Luke twisted his neck indifferently, his eyes full of confidence and provocation.
About ten days ago, they met a group of Blue Star people who also drifted to the New World.
It is not known whether the environmental changes stimulated these people, or whether these people were originally predators active in the wilderness, relying on robbing passing caravans and individual travelers to make money.
Although these guys knew the powerful strength of the Foundation, they still took the Red Spider Caravan as an attack target, and seemed to think that the banner of the Foundation was no longer enough to protect these caravans.
However, they were wrong.
It was outrageous!
A fierce tug-of-war broke out instantly.
First, two teams of 100 people each tried to besiege the Red Spider Caravan, trying to delay the caravan's departure.
But this gave Luke a chance to show his strength!
There was no need for other guards to take action. Luke chose to go down the mountain alone and cleared the two teams effortlessly. The whole process was not difficult at all.
And then the six teams of 100 people called by the two teams of 100 people were slaughtered unilaterally by the armored team that rushed out before they could figure out the situation.
So that those who were still planning to come could smell the pungent smell of blood from a few kilometers away, and were completely scared.
Therefore, when Luke saw the forest shrouded in mist in front of him, he naturally regarded the enemy inside as the predator tribe.
He knew that if these guys dared to come, they would only repeat the same mistakes and taste the bitter fruit of failure again.
To say that he was careless?
Not really.
The main reason was that the gap in strength between the two sides was too big, and it was useless for them to be very vigilant.
He just scared himself.
"Luke, be serious, or I'll deduct your combat allowance."
The voice of Joseph, the deputy captain of the caravan, came from the headset, sounding a bit old-fashioned and serious.
Compared with other guard captains of the foundation, Luke's combat ability is really good and he is also obedient.
But the only bad thing is that it is easy to use past experience to judge what will happen in the future.
For example, now, after he finished speaking.
Visibly, the high morale of the entire escort team has declined a bit.
Some caravan guards who were originally on high alert have also become lazy.
"I understand, I understand, didn't the glasses say that they have blocked these people?"
Luke said impatiently:
"Boss, they are not as strong as us in reconnaissance, can they be stronger in frontal combat?"
"Well, be careful of the opponent's support."
After speaking, Joseph chose to turn off the headset.
He knew that Luke was going to use empiricism again. No matter how much he said, he would not listen.
It was better to save some words and prepare for the next negotiation in Tianyuan.
"Okay, let's go and get rid of this team first, and then wait for their support."
In addition to Luke himself, the caravan also had 20 elite guards who also had power armor.
At this time, Luke first ordered half of them, that is, ten people, to follow quickly. At the same time, half of the remaining 24 guards wearing exoskeleton armor also went out, a total of 23 people, and rushed to the center of the signal source without hesitation.
Because the anti-reconnaissance facilities carried by the Red Spider Caravan have successfully blocked the opponent's signal, while their own side has a strong reconnaissance capability, which has led to the balance of victory falling to the caravan before the battle has begun.
It's like turning on the perspective plug-in when playing an FPS game. Although the fog blocks part of the perception, it still provides considerable infrared information support.
"West 122, about two kilometers, strong signal source." Glasses' somewhat lazy voice came from the headset.
Upon hearing this news, the escort team that had already entered the dense forest immediately changed their direction and chose to rush in the direction they had detected.
However, before the group rushed out far.
Boom.
A guard wearing a power armor seemed to have stepped on a landmine.
With a loud bang, a blazing fire suddenly rose from the spot, accompanied by a violent explosion, and the entire ground was lifted up.
This sudden explosion startled everyone, and Luke immediately ordered the whole team to stop and check the casualties.
Fortunately, due to the excellent protection of the power armor, the guard who stepped on the landmine was only slightly injured and was not in serious condition.
"Damn, these guys seem to be much more cunning than the previous predators."
No matter how powerful the power armor is, it still cannot get rid of the limitations of gravity.
And even if the cold fusion battery built into the armor can provide powerful instantaneous energy, it is not a simple matter to create an engine that meets the thrust-to-weight ratio.
In the foundation, only the top-ranked power armor will be equipped with a glider.
As for flying in the air, you have to go to the bioengineering armor that is one level higher than the power armor, or the nano-modified suit that is rumored to be equipped only by the top caravans.
"Be careful, there is another signal source coming from your north 33 direction, and the reaction is equally strong!"
It seems that the explosion just now scared the glasses, and the voice in the headset suddenly became more serious.
Especially when reporting the arrival of the opponent's support, the tone became more serious.
It's less than five minutes, right?
And it has to be calculated from the time when the Red Spider Caravan sent the signal.
If the time is calculated from the signal sent by the strange enemy, the opponent's support arrived in just three minutes.
At such a close distance, it is hard to believe that there is no support nearby.
Sure enough, before the glasses started the second round of detection, another red signal source appeared on the screen.
According to the reaction level, the three signal sources are almost equal.
This also means that the opponent is not a wandering predator at all, but a standard force with almost the same personnel, equipment, and weapons.
Although the Red Spider Caravan is much stronger than these three signal sources, who wouldn't be afraid of beating the younger ones and then the older ones?
The forces that can train such neat troops are definitely not comparable to the previous plunderer tribe.
This is troublesome!
"I suggest you retreat first, we can try to negotiate with the other party."
"This is not a sign of weakness. The other party may be a standard force. We have to find out their details!"
Glasses issued a warning, and the tone of his voice became more serious.
However, at this moment, something panicked happened!
The earphones that would have received a response in time actually received a loud and disordered noise.
Including the detection of the other party's movements, the signals returned on the screen also disappeared!
This anti-shielding! ?
Glasses stood up with a smudge, and his face suddenly showed an unspeakable horror.
You should know that the Red Spider Caravan is carrying the fifth-generation reconnaissance combat instrument of the Foundation, which is worth tens of thousands of business coupons.
The other party was able to counter-block so easily and directly
"Go call the boss, we are done for, we have hit a wall!"
