Chapter 768 Battle of Healdsburg
768. Battle of Healdsburg
The armies of 'Eden' have finally launched an attack in the farming regions of northern California! This mixed army of elite troops from multiple countries easily broke through the Hope Army's outer line of defense, and burned down a large area of farmland planted with Hope No. 1.
These troops have undergone strict screening, and most of them are people who have no relatives or friends outside the 'Garden of Eden', or are simply outlaws. They have no thoughts of their own and can only obey orders! Combining five mechanized infantry divisions with one armored division, and some now-scarce air support, Hope lost heavily in northern California.
But no one retreated. The raging fire in the captured agricultural area was photographed by a drone secretly arranged by Tang Yu, and released to the world in the name of the Army of Hope! Challenger II, Leopard II-A6, Leclerc... The pictures of these European main battle tanks unique to "Eden" running over the blue field of Hope No. 1 aroused everyone's anger! !
Although the "Garden of Eden" did not launch an offensive in other places, everyone in the places occupied by the Hope Army is in danger, and countless eyes are watching the battle in northern California! !
Including Zhou Yuping, but he also began to prepare secretly. The support of the people is now very clear. Even if the "Garden of Eden" can defeat the Hope Army by force, it is not enough. Because 'hope' has penetrated into the hearts of every lower-level person outside the 'Garden of Eden'.
He is just waiting now, he wants to see what cards Tang Yu has.
On the second day after the battle in northern California began, the army of 'Eden' advanced to the vicinity of Healdsburg, and here, there is a planting dispatch center of Shennong Company, which can be said to be the core of the agricultural area in the northern part of the valley of California!
'Garden of Eden' has elite troops, and the Hope Army naturally has them too. Before the Kaiju Beast invaded, tens of millions of troops around the world, except for the African region where no one pays attention, other places began to reduce the expenditure of the air force and navy, and the army also shrank a lot. After the formation of the political system with the "Garden of Eden" as the core, they reduced the army to about 2 million people and concentrated their forces to defend the core of the "Garden of Eden" in Northwest Europe.
And these tens of millions of troops that have been laid off have become the main military force of the Hope Army. Although the "Garden of Eden" took away or destroyed most of the advanced weapons and equipment, these are not a problem, because they are defending their homes and their chances of survival! !
What's more, there is Tang Yu! Although he does not have the ability to support a global war now, with the industrial strength of the Sky Base, it is not a problem to support such a battle with a scale of 100,000 people. The Battle of Healdsburg must be won! Only in this way can 'Eden' be forced to play their hole cards! This is also Tang Yu's trump card!
In the early morning of October 19, 2019, with a whistling sound, hundreds of large-caliber artillery shells exploded on the Hope Army's position, and with the roar of engines, the vanguard team composed of fifteen Leopard II-A6 main battle tanks first Launched an impact!
However, these "Eden" troops were surprised to find that the Hope Army, which had weak firepower before, actually possessed very terrifying firepower! They are equipped with an unknown assault rifle. Every time they exchange fire, the troops of the Hope Army often start shooting from 4,500 meters away, while the troops of the "Eden" have to rush up against the hail of bullets to have a chance to fight back!
Not only that, this terrifying rifle can even tear through the armor of infantry fighting vehicles at a distance of two hundred meters! ! Even if the track of the tank is hit continuously, it will break directly!
Moreover, the Hope Army is also equipped with a personal missile with a blue tail flame. The speed and range of this missile far exceed the existing equipment!
Of course Tang Yu would not tell them that this was his biggest achievement in the world of "Terminator" before, the Sharp Knife I electromagnetic assault rifle, and the'Meteor' plasma engine missile!
The troops of 'Eden' can only advance under the cover of artillery and air strikes,
And their logistics supply lines are being attacked constantly! There is no progress on the front line, and the supply line has been unstable. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the 'Garden of Eden' lost this battle.
More and more soldiers of the Hope Army equipped with the Sharp Knife I electromagnetic assault rifle gathered, and the front line of Healdsburg was unsustainable.
At this time, another fatal incident happened, and the Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada fell silently. A reinforcement stationed at the air base was wiped out without even saying a word. The expeditionary force sent by "Eden" completely lost its air support.
The retreat gradually turned into a rout! Those "Eden" elite troops who were still showing off in front of the Hope Army before burning the Hope No. 1 Farm are now completely bereaved dogs! Struggling to survive under the pursuit of countless Hope Army soldiers with Sharp Knife I electromagnetic assault rifles.
However, just when everyone was about to cheer the Hope Army's victory, a jaw-dropping news suddenly came! Healdsburg was captured by the 'Garden of Eden'!
It turned out that the T-600 robot unit of the division that had been arranged behind the battle line did it! They directly launched a counterattack, piercing through the Hope Army's defense line like an awl! The tide of T-600 robots flocked to the positions of the Hope Army, and the invincible Dagger I electromagnetic assault rifle also needed concentrated shooting to paralyze a robot.
Facing this terrifying robot army, the commander of the Army of Hope was stunned for a moment. He didn't know whether to continue chasing the retreating 'Eden' army, or recall other troops to defend Healdsburg.
At this time, a direct order from the mysterious high-level Hope Army was issued: "Make a defensive posture, retreat in an all-round way after a little resistance, and give Healdsburg to the robot army!"
Therefore, the "Garden of Eden" lost first and then won, and the Army of Hope won first and then lost. The world was in an uproar, and those lower class people outside the 'Garden of Eden' became more and more angry! Not because of the failure of the Battle of Healdsburg, but because the 'Garden of Eden' actually used the robot army! !
First, the robot laborers came to snatch everyone's jobs, and then the robot guards came to suppress everyone's resistance. Now, is it the turn to use the robot army to slaughter? !
The Guardian Group became street rats for a while, and people in offices all over the place held signs to protest and demonstrate, and even a large number of people gathered to destroy their robot factory! But Tang Yu laughed it off.
When the executives of "Eden" held a ball to toast at the ten-star hotel "Paradise Island" in Paris, cheered the victory of the Battle of Healdsburg, and placed large orders for the production and purchase of more robots, No one noticed that Zhou Yuping, who had been watching their performance coldly in the corner of the ball, suddenly dropped his cup and left the venue in a hurry.
The next day, the 'Green Sky' consortium announced its separation from the 'Garden of Eden', and withdrew all funds and personnel from Europe within a day, obviously well prepared. At the same time, 'Green Sky' issued a document condemning 'Eden' for instigating civil war, condoning crimes against humanity such as Kaiju Beast, and announcing that the rule of 'Eden' is illegal. The core food standard system! !
...
At the same time, in the mecha factory in Changzhou, Zhou Qing and Christina came to Tang Yu who was busy on the computer together.
"It seems that the plan has been executed perfectly... Congratulations!" Tang Yu raised his head and said with a smile.
"Haha, isn't it just a Nellis Air Force Base? Kristina transformed into it and paralyzed their command center and communication, and the rest was just to bury the guards in the sand..." Zhou Qing smiled triumphantly .
"Next, there will be no more gunshots." Tang Yu shook his head and said, "It's just right, Christina, come with me, 'Seraphim' is almost finished."
