Azur Lane: I Took the Graduation Port Area Through Time

Chapter 388 Jian Qianou (3400 Words)

The arrival of the White Eagle Ship Girls can be said to have effectively aroused the fighting spirit of the resistance fighters.

Especially after seeing him being held in Anchorage's arms, these resistance fighters were even more excited.

This young naval commander could rescue them with such a calm and chic attitude, which means that those robots are actually nothing to be afraid of!

After watching Lin Lan and others rushing to the city, these resistance fighters upstairs rushed downstairs and began to take the initiative to counterattack other urban areas.

And soon, these resistance fighters joined the chess pieces of the Orlan Navy, and began to gradually recover Hongye City side by side.

Lin Lan himself did not notice that the scene of him being held in Anchorage's arms inadvertently boosted the morale of the resistance fighters and accelerated the recovery of Hongye City.

"We are about to arrive. The city center square should be in front, and the signal tower and news TV station are around the square."

The closer to the city center, the more times the White Eagle Ship Girls fired, and Lin Lan, who was held in Anchorage's arms, also guided his ship girls.

During this journey, he and the White Eagle ship girls also saw many citizens of Hongye City who were driven onto the streets by out-of-control robots.

Fortunately, none of these civilians were seriously injured.

After the surrounding supervising Rubik's Cube Energy Robots were destroyed by Wichita's agile close approach, the citizens cheered and scattered to make way.

"We're here! That's it!"

Finally, a few minutes later, Wichita blasted open the ruins of a collapsed store floor, and the vision in front of everyone suddenly became wider.

The central square of Hongye City has arrived.

Lin Lan almost instantly saw the large steel signal tower pointing straight to the sky on the other side of the square.

But the scene around this square at this time made him frown.

This once empty and tidy square is now surrounded by dense steel ruins and the remains of Rubik's Cube Energy Robots.

And within the square, it is obvious that a temporary position was built here before.

A large number of Zhuhai Commercial Association mortars, infantry guns and mecha wreckage fell into the craters of this temporary position, announcing that this place had experienced a fierce resistance war not long ago.

But at the moment, Lin Lan did not hear any movement from this devastated position, and a layer of white snow accumulated on many bunkers and wreckage.

All this shows that this temporary position has been captured by the Rubik's Cube Energy Robot, and the resistance fighters may have been captured.

"Commander, there are no humans and Rubik's Cube Energy Robots in the square."

Helena used the SG radar to scan the square and reported to Lin Lan.

"When our carrier-based aircraft came here just now, there were no signs of fighting around here."

Fearless beside him also stared at the battlefield and added that her words meant that this place had been occupied for some time and the fighting had ended before they arrived in Hongye City.

Hearing the words of Helena and Fearless, Lin Lan's heart sank.

Since even the defense forces stationed in the square are gone, wouldn't the news TV station and the signal tower have fallen into the hands of the Rubik's Cube Energy Robot?

If the host of the Rubik's Cube Energy Robot finds out that he intends to occupy these two facilities and destroy them, then his plan will fail.

Since things have come to this, Lin Lan can only prepare for the worst. When he looked at the signal tower and was about to order to advance...

"Da Da Da, Da Da Da Da Da!" "Boom!!!"

The cold snow wind came from the front with the sound of gunfire. At the same time, Lin Lan and a group of White Eagle ship girls saw groups of flames flashing on the news TV station building next to the signal tower.

"The news TV station has not been completely captured. We still have time!"

Lin Lan immediately realized what this meant. Since there were no Rubik's Cube Energy Robots around them, it must mean that all the robots around them were concentrated on capturing the news TV station.

So he immediately ordered the entire army to march across the square and go to the news TV station for support.

"Enterprise, take off your fighters now and use your aircraft machine guns to strafe the Cube Energy Robot troops around the News TV building to delay time for the resistance in the building."

When Lin Lan was walking in Anchorage's arms, he suddenly remembered this trick, so he said to Enterprise and Fearless behind him.

Although he chose the HVAR-carrying F6F Hellcat and the prototype carrier-based BF-109G equipped with rockets for the aircraft carriers in his port area, they mainly used powerful rockets for attack.

But he remembered that these specialized fighters that threw rockets were still equipped with mounted machine guns.

Since rockets could not be used to cause large-scale damage in the city at this time, it would be enough to use machine guns for dive strafe.

"Received!"

After receiving his order, Enterprise and the three Dumpling-class ship girls faced the snow all over the sky, released the fighters in their respective ship equipment, and flew towards the signal tower and the News TV building.

"I hope it's still in time. Otherwise, if we go to the nearest other city, it will take at least half a day... Then we have to wait until tomorrow to announce the establishment of the alliance..."

Looking at dozens of blue and white fighter jets roaring into the sky, Lin Lan let the cold wind hit his face and began to pray silently in his heart.

He was doing his best at the moment and could only hope that the resisters at the news station and signal tower could hold him and the White Eagle girls away until they arrived.

——

In the conference room on the top floor of Hongye City News TV Building, Jian Qianou transformed into a human appearance and was calmly directing the operations of the Tianxing Foundation troops here.

In this conference room with tempered glass windows, in addition to him, there were seven or eight panic-stricken senior executives of Hongye City Tianxing Consortium.

The floor beneath their feet continued to tremble, and the sound of explosions and gunshots penetrated the floors from downstairs and echoed in the conference room.

After Jian Qianou said goodbye to Lin Lan from the Hongye Naval Fortress, he used his ability to rush to the Tianxing Building in Hongye City as soon as possible, and showed his identity as the old director of the Tianou Group and took over the defense force of the Zhuhai Commercial Association in Hongye City. .

While he led all the senior officials of Hongye City's Tianxing Consortium to break out here, he also preemptively deployed a large number of defense troops in the square.

However, the firepower of the Rubik's Cube Energy Robot's troops still exceeded his imagination.

The troops in the central square barely lasted long before the entire line collapsed and fell.

In desperation, Jian Qianou could only mobilize all the remaining troops in the news station building and set up three lines of defense based on the floors.

When he was still a human, Jian Qianou personally participated in the war with the Natlan Empire.

In the long years after the taboo power obtained from Liaozhou by the Tianou Group was transformed into a spirit body, he also entered the Oran army many times and held important positions by virtue of his ability to transform his appearance.

Therefore, even in the face of such a critical situation, Jian Qianou still did not have the slightest fear and could command and deploy operations extremely calmly.

Standing next to him was a middle-aged man in his fifties wearing a suit. He was Qian Yuanbai, the original general agent of the Tianxing Consortium in Hongye City.

Qian Yuanbai silently looked at the sudden arrival of the old director of Tianou Group next to him, as if he were an outsider and said nothing, allowing Jian Qianou to issue combat orders.

"Report, sir, the out-of-control robot has broken through to the third line of defense and will be here soon!"

At this time, a tall soldier holding a firearm, wearing a blue bulletproof vest and with several bloodstains on his face rushed in from the conference room, gasping and shouting the bad news.

Upon hearing such a bad battle situation, the senior executives of the Star Consortium in all the conference rooms turned even paler, and even stood up from their seats, pacing back and forth anxiously.

"Master Jian, the matter has come to this, we should give up resistance."

Just as the atmosphere in the conference room fell into despair, Qian Yuanbai suddenly spoke.

His words made everyone, including Jian Qianou, look at him with doubtful expressions.

"The Rubik's Cube energy robots will not really hurt us. Otherwise, this news station building would have been destroyed by them long ago. How could we have not had any soldiers die so far?"

"So, I suggest not to continue to resist pointlessly, otherwise there will only be more seriously injured people. I believe that robots will not really hurt us."

Qian Yuanbai continued to speak without changing his expression, but his words did not receive any refutation from these subordinates at this moment.

"Sir, sir! Are you kidding me? You won't hurt us? Then, my brothers..."

When the soldier who had just entered and was still standing in the conference room heard this, he looked in disbelief and looked at Qian Yuanbai with an excited tone and spoke tremblingly.

But before he finished speaking, Qian Yuanbai gave him a faint glare:

"Are you qualified to speak here?"

Such understatement made the soldier hold back the words in his mouth, but he lowered his head angrily and quietly clenched his fists.

"If Master Jian and everyone else have no objections, then..."

Qian Yuanbai glanced at everyone in the conference room, and just as he was about to give the order to give up resistance, Jian Qianou's deep voice suddenly sounded faintly in the conference room.

"Qian Yuanbai, who has been the general agent of Hongye City of the Tianxing Consortium for eight years, is Zhao Tianyi's loyal subordinate. He is known for his stable character, and is very nostalgic and does not like new things."

"But you have devoted almost your entire life to the large-scale production and promotion of the third-generation robot in Hongye City."

"You even went against your usual prudent style of doing things and took the initiative to request Zhao Tianyi to use Hongye City as the first pilot city to produce third-generation robots."

"What is the reason that made you suddenly go out of your way and apply for this qualification so persistently?"

Jian Qian'ou clasped his hands behind his back and watched Qian Yuanbai narrate these secrets. Not only did Qian Yuanbai's expression change, but also the eyes of the surrounding Tianxing Consortium executives widened.

Only the high-level circles in Hongye City know about these things about Qian Yuanbai.

How did this hunky old director of Tianou Group, who landed just at noon, know so clearly?

"So, so what?"

"Even if Director Jian knows all this, what's the point?"

Qian Yuanbai looked at Jian Qianou coldly, and while asking questions in a low voice, he put his hands behind his back and grasped the metal object fastened to his waist under his suit.

The gunshots and explosions downstairs are getting louder and louder, indicating that the Rubik's Cube Energy Robot's troops are getting closer and closer.

Through the glass window, one can clearly see down the street a steady stream of out-of-control robots rushing towards the building amidst the heavy snow.

The fact is just as Qian Yuanbai said. Even if Jian Qianou said this now, what is the meaning in front of the vast Rubik's Cube Energy Robot Army?

However, Jian Qianou seemed to not care about all this at all. He just looked at Qian Yuanbai calmly and continued:

"More than ten years ago, your daughter died in an accident, and your wife divorced you because of it."

"Bang!"

Qian Yuanbai's face suddenly showed a look of determination. The general agent who was over 50 years old pulled out the pistol he had been holding in his hand from behind, pointed it at Jian Qianou's head and pulled the trigger.
