One Thousand and Fifty-Four Deep Into the Enemy's Nest

A large number of mechanical spiders entered Channel 7 and soon found that there were some branches deep in Channel 7 that led to unknown places.

Ye Han wanted to check all these channels, but the mechanical spiders were not enough.

So he led the team into Channel 7, rescued the drones that served as repeaters in the temporary channel, and put them into the great cause of exploring Channel 7.

As luck would have it, as soon as the troops entered Channel 7, Ouyang Ping blew up Channel 5. The communication between the two sides was blocked by the complex terrain. They walked one foot and the other foot, and the two sides staggered and could not communicate.

There are seven forks deep in Channel 7, marked as negative one to negative seven. Dozens of mechanical spiders are scattered in the seven channels, with an average of more than a dozen in each channel.

Later, Ye Han discovered that these negative channels were truly intricate. There were more forks on each fork. Some of these forks were completely unconnected, while others were interconnected and crisscrossed, forming a dense three-dimensional tunnel system like a spider web. If the data sent back by the mechanical spider were not all stored in the biochip, the maze structure of forks within forks alone would have trapped everyone and made it impossible to get out.

The strange thing was that there was no sign of aliens in the maze at all. Ye Han couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that all the aliens ran into Channel No. 5, leaving the deep channels empty of troops?

Luo Qi suddenly said, "Captain, look, negative No. 4 has found the enemy!"

Ye Han immediately received the video that Luo Qi had transferred and found that the mechanical spider had entered a hemispherical cave hall.

The cave hall was about 30 meters high and no less than 40 meters in diameter. As far as the eye could see, both the walls and the ground were very rough. It didn't look like artificial excavation, but rather like a naturally formed cave.

Ganymede did not have the conditions for the formation of caves, and this cave hall was just an ordinary underground cave.

Through the lens of the mechanical spider, we can see that there are thirty or forty aliens in the cave. They have crossed the cave hall and entered a dark passage on the other side of the cave hall.

The action of the aliens immediately attracted Ye Han's attention.

All the aliens in the No. 7 and No. 5 passages were dead. It is said that the enemy should concentrate its forces to deal with the airborne division at this time, but this team of aliens went in the opposite direction.

Although this place is a bit far from the shaft, it is not necessarily known what is happening in the two passages, but shouldn't we mobilize troops to focus on the siege at this time?

"Let the spider follow!" Ye Han gave an order, since this passage was marked as negative No. 8 on the map.

The mechanical spider immediately took action, and the picture shook violently because of the spider's action, until it caught up with the negative No. 8 passage, it was better.

At the same time, Luo Qi mobilized the mechanical spiders near the cave hall to concentrate in the direction of negative No. 8, focusing on surveying this area.

After entering the passage, Ye Han found that the wall of the negative No. 8 cave was obviously much smoother than the cave hall, which was obviously the result of artificial excavation by aliens.

The spider chased along the descending passage, and after about 70 or 80 meters, a blurry shadow suddenly flashed in the shaking camera.

Ye Han suddenly shouted: "Stop, retreat!"

The mechanical spider stopped immediately and took a few steps back.

"Retreat again!" Ye Han said again.

The spider did as he was told, and the fleeting shadow entered the camera again.

"Here, move closer!" Ye Han pointed to the position of the shadow and said.

Now Luo Qi also saw that something was wrong, and said hesitantly: "It looks like a person!" The position where the shadow was located collapsed a little, and a human-shaped thing was half buried in the sand and stones. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it clearly at all.

"It's definitely not our people!" Luo Qi said with great certainty.

Channel No. 5 and Channel No. 7 are both under the charge of the Third Regiment. The soldiers didn't rush to the negative character head branch cave, so how could they appear so far away?

"It may be the multinational forces." Ye Han said, "They should have a force in this direction."

At this time, the mechanical spider had climbed onto the man's arm,

and the slender mechanical legs swept away the dust, and a tricolor flag immediately appeared in the camera.

Now all the doubts have been answered. There must be a friendly army deep in this passage. Those aliens are probably rushing over to encircle and suppress the multinational forces.

Ye Han let out a long breath and snorted coldly: "Spider will follow immediately, and the troops will set off immediately!"

"Yes!" Luo Qi agreed, and immediately whispered, "Division Commander, can we withdraw after rescuing them?"

Ye Han laughed and scolded: "You are so smart!"

Luo Qi laughed, how could he not understand what Ye Han meant?

The airborne division can indeed evacuate on the grounds of heavy casualties, but the situation underground cannot be seen from space, and the multinational fleet can completely blame the airborne division for not working hard, so Beidu will be very passive.

But after rescuing a friendly army, it is different to evacuate on the grounds of heavy casualties. Rescuing a friendly army will cause so many casualties. You can't throw all the airborne divisions in when you know that it is difficult to continue the rescue, right?

Even if the multinational fleet is willing, Beidu must be willing.

The troops were about to set off. At this critical moment, Ye Han suddenly received a communication from the rear: "Number one, number one, please reply!"

"Ouyang Ping? Is that you?" Ye Han immediately recognized the voice.

"It's me, it's me!" Ouyang Ping was as happy as a child, "Commander, I finally found you!"

"Don't be too happy too soon, I can't go out now."

This sentence was like a basin of cold water poured on Ouyang Ping's head: "Why?"

"We found a friendly army."

This is good news!

Ouyang Ping quickly asked: "Which country?"

"Tricolor flag, who knows which country it is." Ye Han complained very sharply.

He always thought that those tricolor flags without any characteristics were too weird, and he always suspected that the rulers of these countries were too lazy, otherwise why would they use such easily confused tricolor flags as national flags?

In fact, he only needed to look through the data stored in the biochip to know which country the flag belonged to, but he was too lazy to move.

"What should we do then?" Ouyang Ping asked.

"How many people did you bring?"

"One company."

"Call for support immediately, call the guard battalion and the training battalion over, who is in charge of the shaft now?"

"The third commander."

"Have him watch the shaft and this passage, don't let the enemy cut off our retreat."

"Yes!"

"Also, Ouyang, wait for the follow-up troops, I will pass the first route to you later..."

Ouyang Ping quickly refused: "Division Commander, the Dragon Regiment has no reserve troops. Except for the troops I brought, other troops have tasks and cannot be withdrawn for a while."

"Then you explain the situation to Lao Long first, and then lead the team to catch up!"

"Yes!"
