Chapter 268 Seeking Support
"When we noticed the invasion of the star thieves, we had already sent out a signal for help to the surroundings, but there was no response. We had no choice but to organize a breakout and leave from the other side of the planet where we were stationed. When we left, we were still blocked by the star thieves. After we broke through the siege, Decided to bypass the QSWL planet and come here for help."
Lianyi gave a brief explanation and then said:
"According to the analysis of Major General Ness and my teacher Ouyang, there should be someone behind this group of star thieves. Otherwise, they would not have formulated such a sophisticated plan, linking one link after another, to push us to a dead end step by step. Behind them is People from the Yunyi Galaxy are most likely."
After saying this, she stopped and it was up to Quinn to decide the rest.
"It will take time to verify the circumstances you mentioned."
"I know, I just hope that the major general can be faster. They can't afford to wait. I don't want to lose my classmates and teachers."
This time Ripple's voice became more indifferent, and he glanced at Quinn lightly.
If this person is really hesitant and spoils things, making Hill and the others a loser, she will definitely make him pay the price.
Quinn suddenly became excited, and he suddenly had a very bad feeling. If what this young boy said was true, and things went in a bad direction because of his decision, he would definitely regret it.
He immediately turned around and left the small living room, just to let the soldiers at the door keep an eye on Ripple, and he was going to discuss it before making a decision.
Ripple could only wait quietly.
"Ian, are you still unable to contact Blue Star?"
"Yes, Master. The gap last time was only enough for me to send a distress message. Maybe if we move further to the outside, we can avoid the signal interference area."
"I see."
She was thinking that if it didn't work out, she would ask Major General Quinn to send someone to leave the SFWL planet with him, and then expand the scope of the rescue. As long as no news about her spreads tomorrow, Captain Sean will go to the third closest satellite planet, then she will Go to the fourth closest satellite planet for help.
Quinn immediately summoned his men and briefly explained the situation. He also showed everyone the video sent to him by Ripple, and then asked for everyone's opinions.
Because some star thieves pretended to be ordinary people who were injured in an attack and asked for help at their station. The other party was not pretending, but was really seriously injured by a beam gun, so they believed the other party.
The man who was rescued categorically stated that he was attacked by star thieves and begged them to send someone to rescue his family and other people on the spacecraft.
Based on the landing position of the man's escape capsule, they deduced the approximate direction of the spacecraft, and sent a team of mecha soldiers to rescue the man. Only the mecha captain returned injured, saying that their team was ambushed by star thieves, and he was the only one to escape. Come back.
Only then did Quinn realize something was wrong, and immediately sent someone to find the man. As a result, the man who was supposed to receive treatment actually touched the station's signal transmitter and blew up the signal tower. He himself was shot by the station's soldiers. killed.
Quinn was not stupid. This was premeditated. He immediately raised the protective shield of the station, and then checked the station according to the man's movement track. Sure enough, he found the small bomb placed by the other party. Although it was not very powerful, it was It is still possible to cause chaos and destroy important facilities.
Fortunately, the man had been killed, the signal tower had collapsed, and the star thief could not control the bombs from the outside. After removing these hidden dangers, he ordered preparations for war and sent a spaceship to pursue the star thief's spacecraft.
It's just that the Star Thieves ran very fast, and their goal had been achieved. When they saw something was wrong, they quickly evacuated.
The star thieves ran away, but there was no guarantee they wouldn't come back again, so Quinn was always on alert.
Another escape pod fell down today, and his nerves became tense. After hearing what the soldiers said, he was full of doubts. He didn't know how this young boy came to such a remote satellite planet, so he decided to meet him. , ask about the situation face to face.
"Major General, we can't confirm the other party's identity now. We're afraid it's another trap."
There are objections.
"But if it's true and we didn't rescue in time, causing the ZJWL planet to fall, we would also have to go to military court."
"But if there is only a young boy and a few videos, how can we believe it?"
"Then take him with you. If there's another ambush, he won't be able to escape."
Everyone expressed their opinions. Finally, Quinn decided to send a regiment of mecha soldiers based in the station to the ZJWL planet to investigate the specific information. If the situation was true, they would use the most primitive method to send a fireworks warning. Then he would Send another regiment of mecha soldiers to support.
This is already the limit of their station. After all, they have to leave enough manpower to guard the station. They cannot send them all out. If those star thieves target them and attack them instead, they will be passive by then.
"Assemble manpower and set off overnight!"
"Yes, Major General!"
"The signal tower hasn't been repaired yet?"
"Report to the Major General that there are not enough repair materials. The signal corps is trying to find a way."
"Get them as soon as possible, a loss of communications would be bad for us."
"yes!"
After Lianyi received the good news, a smile appeared on her face. She said she had no objection to Quinn's arrangement and she didn't want to stay here.
A regiment of mecha soldiers took a medium-sized spaceship and left the SFWL planet. Ripple immediately explained the situation to Sean through the mecha's dedicated channel.
"Then be careful. Let's continue to the third satellite planet and try to get some more support. One regiment of mecha soldiers is not enough to completely repel the star thieves."
Sean thought for a moment and said.
"I see!"
At this point, the breakout team was divided into two groups, and Ripple followed the mecha regiment of the SFWL planet back to the ZJWL planet day and night.
At this time, everyone inside the ZJWL station looked tense, because it had been eight days since the breakout team left, and there was still no news coming back, and no support was seen, but the number of casualties at the station was constantly increasing. , several times Ouyang had to drive a mecha into battle to save the injured mecha soldiers.
Under the leadership of Kate, the students in Class A worked almost all day and night to do what they could. One mecha after another was repaired in their hands, but these were far from enough, and the future that never appeared made them vaguely guess. Come on, the opponent should have broken through and left to find support.
The smile on Hill's face disappeared, replaced by heaviness. This was the first time he had faced war and bloodshed since he was born, and these people still lost their lives because of him. He felt more depressed than ever before. .
He went to find Teacher Ouyang, lowered his head and said:
"Teacher, if you can end this battle by handing me over, I am willing! I don't want to see more people sacrifice for me, and I don't want to hurt my classmates!"
"Hill, if you leave with them now, all our previous efforts will be in vain. Hongtu hasn't come back yet, so you have to have confidence in him!"
Before Ouyang could answer, Kate's voice came from behind Hill.
