One Thousand and Sixty Five: Capture the Ice Cave

Ye Han was full of doubts and quickly ordered as he walked forward: "Luo Qi, you continue to lead the team, Ouyang, come with me!"

No matter what is wrong, the actions that have been started cannot be stopped, let alone remove Luo Qi and replace him with Ouyang Ping just because of this trivial matter.

"Yes!" The two men answered in unison.

Seeing the troops continuing to advance deeper into the ice cave, Ye Han asked: "Luo Qi, what's wrong?"

"The body shape and appearance are all wrong!" Luo Qi said.

Ye Han's steps stagnated and he blurted out two words: "Noble?"

"I think so." Luo Qi said.

"I know." Ye Han continued to walk forward, and after a while, he and Ouyang Ping arrived at the place where Luo Qi said.

This is one of the two defensive positions of the enemy. The bunker is made of several insect shells and has an alien style.

There were dozens of alien corpses lying behind the bunker, most of them were cannon fodder-like servants, but Ye Han saw a distinctive corpse among the many servants.

The biggest difference between this corpse is that it is very short in stature, only about 2.34 meters tall at most, which is much shorter than the servant who is more than 3 meters tall.

If you don't know the inside story, you might think that this is a servant who has not grown up. However, people who are familiar with this group of servants know that they are adults when they are born and have no idea what it means to grow up. Their body shape and height are different from those before. The measurement is as accurate as ever, and there will never be any defective products with insufficient height.

Ye Han glanced at Ouyang Ping, but did not leave the team. Instead, he turned on the telescope function of the armor to observe carefully.

This is still a battlefield. As a commander, you can't make yourself look different at any time. Only by looking exactly like ordinary soldiers can you not attract the attention of the enemy.

Observation found that this alien, who may be a noble, is covered in carapace like the servants, but his body is thicker than the servants, and his facial features are clearer than the servants, or more in line with human aesthetics.

The equipment on his body is also more sophisticated than that of the servants. It seems that in order to highlight his unique status, some alien-style accessories are attached to the carapace on his chest and shoulders.

Ye Han stared at the corpse and asked softly: "Ouyang, what do you think?"

"I think they should be alien nobles, unless there are more than two classes of aliens: servants and nobles." Ouyang Ping said.

"No." Ye Han laughed, and then showed a playful expression, "This is my first time meeting an alien noble. I will notify the sniper soon and focus on taking care of the short ones."

Ouyang Ping almost laughed, but he held back his laughter and replied: "Yes!"

The troops in front have exchanged fire with the enemy again. The enemy is still hidden deep in the vine forest. The exchange of fire between the two sides is not fierce. Ye Han looks ahead and suddenly says: "Even the nobles have come out. This place must not be simple."

Ouyang Ping was startled: "Sir, what do you mean..."

Ye Han shook his head: "I don't know what this place is for, what's the point? Stop dawdling, bring people over to support, and take down the ice cave as soon as possible!"

"Yes!" Ouyang Ping immediately brought the teaching company to support Luo Qi.

Ye Han took another look at the Italian army and found that the situation of the Italian army was not bad, so he relaxed and followed the teaching company to approach the battlefield.

Because the vine forest is full of aliens, neither the Italian army nor the Chinese used drones. Apart from knowing that the enemy was hiding in the vine forest, they no longer knew the enemy's situation.

In order to avoid being plotted by the enemy, both the Italian army and the Chinese side carefully concentrated their troops to form local advantages and gradually advanced bit by bit.

This tactic worked well, but Ye Han and the Brigadier had differences on whether to enter the vine forest.

Ye Han believed that his own troops were insufficient, so he should mainly surround the vine forest. A small number of troops should be left to monitor the vine forest. The main force should advance quickly along the ice wall and capture the ice cave first.

The brigadier general believed that there must be many aliens hiding in the vine forest. The ice cave was so big.

The main force could not be defeated for a while, and the small number of troops left behind were not strong enough. Once the enemy broke out of the vine forest, the consequences would be worrying, so we strongly advocated attacking the vine forest, at least to clear out all the enemies hidden in the vine forest.

The situation did not allow for in-depth communication between the two people, let alone a pause in the operation. The two people summed up a few words and simply went their own way. The Italian army followed the brigadier general's idea to develop into the vine forest, while the Chinese army continued to go deeper into the ice cave according to Ye Han's idea. Walk everywhere.

In order to contain the enemies in the vine forest, Ye Han even spared the soldiers guarding the vine forest.

In fact, both of them are right. What Ye Han values ​​​​is the overall strategy. Only by seizing the ice cave as soon as possible and figuring out how many exits are there can we arrange troops to guard all the passages in time. Only by mastering these passages can we advance, attack or retreat. Shou.

However, the disadvantage of rapid advancement is that you may encounter enemy surprise attacks at any time, and the casualties will be relatively high.

The brigadier general paid more attention to the tactical level. A steady attack on Fujilin would result in fewer casualties. However, if the enemy's reinforcements arrived, the original advantage would probably be lost.

Both sides went their own way but combined the advantages of both solutions.

In order to achieve the combat goal as soon as possible, Ye Han did not care about the loss of the mechanical spiders and released all the remaining mechanical spiders. On the one hand, it opened a way for the troops to spy on the situation ahead, and on the other hand, it provided early warning for the troops to avoid being attacked by the enemy.

The deeper the troops went into the ice cave, the more anxious Ye Han became. However, the situation in the ice cave was obviously better than he expected. There were not as many enemies as expected, and the troops' actions were also very smooth. After just over ten minutes, the Chinese The troops controlled all three channels leading to the outside world.

Then the Chinese began to march towards Tenglin.

At this time, the Italian army was still playing hide-and-seek with the aliens in the vine forest, but the Italian army also achieved great results, killing hundreds of enemy soldiers.

The two sides surrounded the vine forest from two directions. The aliens still hiding in the vine forest resisted desperately, but all their efforts were in vain. After a while, the last alien fell to the sniper's gun.

Humans had completely taken control of the ice cave. The battle had just ended when Qi Yue, who had been following Ye Han, suddenly said, "Commander, the brigadier general wants to speak to you."

"What did he want to say?" Ye Han asked in surprise.

"He said that some very special giant insects were found in the vine forest. He also said that there was something wrong with the giant vines. He hoped that you would go and take a look."

"Where is he?" Ye Han asked.

"It seems to be in the middle of the vine forest." Qi Yue said.

Ye Han frowned slightly and shouted directly on the radio: "Luo Qi, where are you? Do you know what that stupid guy means?"

Luo Qi immediately replied: "Sir, something is indeed wrong. I saw water!"

Ye Han was even more puzzled. As he walked into the vine forest, he wondered, what's wrong with the water?
