Chapter 894: Amulet!
894:Amulet!
At this time, in the vast sea of stars, a huge fleet was flying quickly towards Cape Star. Qi Yaoyang, sitting on the command starship, seemed calm, but in fact he was anxious.
Ling Xiao had a desire to save his son, and so did he. What's more, Qi Long had a falling out with him on the surface and broke away from his arrangement to join the 23rd Army. In fact, he and Ling Xiao understood in their hearts that this was to prevent The Third Marshal's faction suspected his relationship with Ling Xiao and had no choice but to do so. In fact, among his three sons, the youngest son Qi Long was the one he liked and doted on the most.
"Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao, what exactly is the amulet you are talking about?" Qi Yaoyang said to himself. In his mind, he recalled a secret chat he had with Ling Xiao after the legion commanders' meeting two weeks ago.
"Ling Xiao, why did you announce in a high profile that Ling Lan is your son this time? Aren't you most worried that Ling Lan will be in danger if his identity is exposed?" Qi Yaoyang asked in confusion.
Ling Xiao's face was solemn and helpless: "I can't hide it any longer...and if I don't say this, the second and third factions won't give up. They have long wanted to force me to publicly expose Ling Xiao at this meeting. Lan’s identity.”
If you want to use this to attack him for seeking personal gain with power and to attack his rising reputation, I am afraid that even the First Marshal will acquiesce... Ling Xiao knows his status in the hearts of the people. The god-making actions of the three marshals back then probably would not have allowed him to do so. Become the invisible fourth person in the military who is as powerful as them.
"Soldiers are very fast. I don't want to continue to mess with them in the meeting. Since I can't hide it anymore, I will simply do what they want." Ling Xiao sneered. If he can't overcome this blow, how can he talk about his ambition?
"Ling Xiao, tell the truth. Do you really have confidence in supporting the statement for more than three weeks, or are you prepared to win once?" Qi Yaoyang asked seriously. He had to know the truth before he could make proper arrangements.
"I'm confident because I arranged an amulet for Ling Lan..." Ling Xiao said with a complicated expression. I was just worried at the time. Just in case, in fact, Ling Xiao did not want this amulet to appear. It's a pity that Ling Lan's precious daughter is really a disaster...
Qi Yaoyang wanted to know what the amulet arranged by Ling Xiao was, but unfortunately Ling Xiao refused to tell her anymore. Just let him speed up and rush to the rescue if it's too late. No amount of talismans is of any use.
In five days, the army will enter the Cape Star Territory, and ten days have passed since the army commander meeting...
"We must hold on, don't let us down!" Qi Yaoyang thought to himself.
He took a deep breath and asked the adjutant beside him: "Where is the person who found Long Xiang?"
“Long Xiang didn’t pass on any news to us.
So I can't find any clues. "The adjutant said with a confused look on his face.
"Then the old boy likes to do this kind of thing, but it's good this way, even we can't find them. Others can't be found. This also avoids leaking the traces, allowing Hylia to be aware of it and start early. General attack." Qi Yaoyang didn't want to know Long Xiang's location. Now that I heard the adjutant say this, I felt satisfied.
Before Qi Yaoyang led the reinforcements to set off, he and Ling Xiao studied the battle situation on Haijiao Star. Although Ling Xiao objected to the Third Marshal's decision in a big way, privately, Ling Xiao also acknowledged the intelligence obtained by the Third Marshal and his judgment. All correct. Hylia was indeed using Cape Star as bait, hoping to eat the Federation's reinforcements.
The only way to break this situation is to rely on the surviving bases of Cape Star to withstand the final general attack and persist until reinforcements enter Cape Star. Otherwise, once it falls, the Federation will definitely fall into a passive position. Not only will it be unable to rescue Cape Star, it will even destroy a huge starship fleet.
But how can the general attack, which gathers all the combat power of Hylia on Cape Star, be resisted by the strength of one or two survivor bases? Now, we can only hope that Long Xiang can sneak into Cape Star as early as possible and save the situation.
Qi Yaoyang suppressed his worries and pinned his hopes on the missing Long Xiang and the possession talisman Ling Xiao mentioned. The only thing he can do now is to command the army to do his best and rush as quickly as possible. To Cape Star.
Three more days passed. After great sacrifices, the supplies recovered finally solved the crisis of water and food shortage in the 013 base. The 250 Mecha Regiment was not able to feel sad and angry, so it had to engage in attacks with Hylia again and again.
The Hylian Army was extremely angry about the fact that Base 013 destroyed their Ailan Base. If Base 013 had not been used for other purposes, I am afraid they would have ordered the army to attack and directly crush Base 013 to the ground.
However, in order to vent their anger, the Hylian army launched a 24-hour attack, threatening to torture them to death even if they were starved to death.
Three consecutive days of non-stop attacks have exhausted everyone at Base 013 and reached the critical point of collapse. But the situation is getting worse and worse. More and more enemy troops are stationed outside the base. Seeing that an attack that is dozens of times more powerful than before is about to occur, everyone's hearts are heavy and a feeling of despair arises. Could it be that Are they really going to die here today?
In the 013 command post, almost all the corps commanders and the commanders of the other three bases were present, looking solemnly at the situation displayed on the big screen outside the base.
"It looks like they are going to launch a general attack." The commander of Base 012 said with a gloomy face. Not only him, but everyone knew that everyone in Base 013 had reached their limit. They could not resist this battle at all.
"This also means that our reinforcements are coming." Ling Lan said calmly. She had already thought of this scene. When the reinforcements arrived, it would also be their most difficult moment.
"What are we using to support the arrival of reinforcements?" A regiment commander stood up angrily, "My soldiers have reached their limit. They only rested for four hours in three days. They can't support it at all."
"We are too, and the number of enemies outside has increased to more than ten times. Whoever attacks now will die. I can't let my soldiers make such unnecessary sacrifices!" Another corps leader also jumped up and shouted.
All the corps leaders fell silent. Like these two corps leaders, they no longer had the courage to fight anymore. No one was willing to die. Even if they were trapped in the base, the base would eventually be destroyed and die, but at least there would be more. Live for a moment, there is still a glimmer of hope.
Ling Lan glanced around, and her cold gaze made everyone lower their heads, not daring to look directly.
"In that case, let's call it a truce!" Ling Lan stood up and left the command post with the captains of the 250th Mecha Regiment.
Everyone looked at Ling Lan's leaving figure in shock. Could it be that Captain Ling Lan, who has always been strong and domineering and never admits defeat, has also decided to give up?
After a few seconds, with a coaxing sound, the command post suddenly exploded. They were afraid of death so they chose to give up, but they didn't want Base 013 to give up without doing anything. (To be continued.)
