One Thousand One Hundred and Twelve: Knight!
1112: Knight!
Half a month has passed since Lin Yang, Yu Wei and other mecha groups visited. During this half month, the entire Nebula Base knew that Ling Tian, who succeeded Aofeng, was extremely powerful.
There are even rumors that Lin Yang, Yu Wei and other regiment leaders returned home in defeat with their entire army wiped out. However, since Ling Tian, Slaughter, Cloud Piercer and other regiments have not officially disclosed the results of the challenge, most people believe that the rumors are exaggerated. Yes, Ling Tian may be very strong, but it is absolutely impossible to be that strong.
But it is undeniable that the fact that Lin Yang, Yu Wei and other group leaders also acknowledged that they lost the challenge proved Ling Tian's strength. It also made most people in Lucky Base temporarily put aside their doubts about whether Ling Tian was qualified to guard Nebula Base in place of Aofeng.
After all, this is the world of mechas. Although physical skills are the basis for the advancement of mecha masters, the ultimate expression of the strength of the mecha regiment depends on the control strength of the mecha masters. Therefore, if they want to be recognized by the major mecha groups in Nebula Base, Lingtian's mecha masters must first prove that they are strong enough.
Because Ling Tian succeeded Aofeng of Nebula's first mecha regiment, the exclusive ejection port of the mecha that originally belonged to Aofeng was naturally assigned to Ling Tian. Yu Huan once kindly wanted to replenish Ling Tian's ejection ports with various logistics units, such as JMC, mecha warehouse logistics units, etc., but Ling Lan politely refused.
What Ling Lan needs is a concerted and efficient mecha regiment, and there is no shortage of these equipment in his own regiment, so there is no need to waste time cultivating foreign aid. Furthermore, Linglan did not want to cause trouble with the huge army that had not yet been fully integrated.
Although the relationship between Caesar and the Federation is not as tense as with Higurashi, with wars occurring every now and then, it cannot be said to be very harmonious. Once the two countries have friction and confront each other at the United Nations meeting, there will be small-scale battles between the two armies on the Nebula border. It seems that if I can't convince you, I will beat you into submission.
After Ling Tian spent four months peacefully at Nebula Base, they finally ushered in their first battle in the starry sky.
"Woo~!" The first-level battle alarm sounded throughout the Nebula Base.
The mecha regiments on duty at the front have already ejected from their respective ejection ports and are arrayed to prepare for the attack.
The Caesar Empire launched another attack. Nebula Base has long been prepared for this.
All members of the mecha regiment who were still on vacation quickly rushed back to their home camps, put on their combat uniforms, boarded the hovercraft that had been prepared, rushed to their mecha depot, boarded the aircraft and prepared for battle.
Ling Lan heard the first siren and came to the command post.
After seeing base commander Yu Huan’s request call,
Ling Lan took it.
"Captain Ling, according to the latest information obtained, Caesar will send their top ace mecha group - the Knights. The key to this battle is them. Please be sure to intercept them." Yu Huan said with a serious expression.
The battle between the top ace mecha groups will determine the outcome of the entire battle. If Ling Tian cannot stop the knights, then Nebula Base will have to consider how to escape.
"I understand." Ling Lan said calmly.
Yu Huan glanced at Ling Lan worriedly and wanted to say something, but Ling Lan's cold and indifferent face made him not know what to say.
He struggled for a moment and then said tactfully: "The Knights are the eighteenth-ranked mecha group of the Caesar Empire's ace mecha group. According to the division of our mecha group, this ranking has reached the level of one even if it is not the legendary level. It’s a five-star rating. Obviously, Caesar is not going to make a small fuss this time, but wants to give us a hard blow..."
Ling Lan didn't say anything, just looked at him indifferently.
Yu Huan swallowed his saliva and finally said what he meant: "Captain Ling, even if Aofeng is here, he will lose more than he wins when meeting the knights." In fact, there is no doubt that he will lose, "If Ling Tian loses, , we can avoid it first, although we will lose the Nebula border, but as long as the country sends a legendary mecha group, we can still fight back. "
It's not like this has happened before. When the enemy's combat power far exceeds theirs, running away is not a shame, but a wise choice. Only by preserving our strength can we usher in the next victory.
Ling Lan nodded and replied, "I understand."
What do you understand? Yu Huan almost wanted to smash the virtual screen in front of him, couldn't he honestly admit that he was defeated? That was Caesar's legendary mecha group. You, a mecha regiment that has just been promoted to a title ban, how can you find the confidence to fight against the opponent?
"Captain Ling, shouldn't you think about your people?" Do you want to go even though you know you are going to die? Yu Huan asked angrily.
"What should we do?" Ling Lan raised her eyebrows and asked coldly, "Abandon the regiments that have already gone into battle? Or are we going to send some mecha regiments to die?"
If you want to escape successfully, you must leave enough mecha regiments to block the enemy, and those remaining mecha regiments have only one outcome - death in battle!
This is war. Even if the superior person makes the choice that is most beneficial to his own side, there will still be no shortage of sacrifices.
"Captain Ling, you have succeeded Aofeng in Nebula Base. Although time is short and you have not yet been recognized by all the mecha regiments in the base, you cannot take over the position of commander-in-chief of the battle. But I have always believed in you, so I am serious about you. Discuss this matter." Yu Huanmei said with a hint of anger. If avoiding the war did not require the approval of the commander of the mecha regiment at the base, he would not talk nonsense with this kid who does not know the heights of the sky.
"Knight Mecha Regiment, according to the information we have received, half of the 2,000 mecha masters in the regiment have reached the ultimate ace level, and the other half are also elite aces." Yu Huan sneered, "Excuse me, what is the relationship between Lingtian and They fight?"
Even if they are as powerful as Aofeng, there are only three or four hundred ultimate aces. Seven or eight hundred people are elite aces, and the rest are ordinary aces.
Ling Lan narrowed her eyes slightly when she heard this: "It is indeed very strong, but it is not our Ling Tian style to admit defeat before fighting."
"Haha, does Captain Ling think that you, Ling Tian, can compete with the knights?" Yu Huanqi laughed back. After all, he was young and energetic. It was obvious that he would not shed tears until he saw the coffin. He would only understand after paying a heavy price. War is not won by courage and a few bold words.
Unexpectedly, Ling Lan actually nodded and replied to his sarcastic words: "That's true!"
If it had been a month or two earlier, Ling Lan might have considered Yu Huan's suggestion, but now, Ling Tian was not unable to fight.
Of course, Ling Lan knew that her decision might cause some of the mecha divisions in the regiment to die on the battlefield, but everyone who was determined to become a soldier was already prepared.
The calmness and indifference in Ling Lan's eyes made Yu Huan calm down from his anger.
"I'll give you a chance." Yu Huan was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "But as long as I find that Ling Tian is defeated, don't blame me for giving up on you." This is not a warning, but a statement of facts. It was impossible for Yu Huan to put the Nebula Base into crisis for Ling Tian.
ps: It's a bit stuck. I'm afraid the next chapter will be updated around 2 a.m. Don't wait. It will be the same when I read it tomorrow morning. (To be continued.)
