Chapter 721 The Exercise Ends, Akamatsu Admits Defeat
Akamatsu led the fleet and chased after Jeremiah and his four companions.
"Tsk, we can't get rid of them. We are running out of energy and strength." Joan Luo said with sweat on his forehead. Although he had a lot of training, this was his first actual combat, so he was naturally nervous. He was tense and engaged in such a high-intensity battle. The consumption of both physical strength and energy was terrible.
Not only did the ammunition of the machine run out, but the energy was also running out. Jeremiah and his four companions had reached their limit, and now they were supported by willpower.
"It's all my fault! His Highness's order was just to delay time, not to force an attack!" Gilbert complained unhappily. He was the one with the most combat experience among the four. He knew how to adjust the consumption of physical strength and energy in battle, so the consumption was a little less than that of the three, but it was only a little bit. It was really hard to continue fighting.
"Don't say it, you are just too excited!" Vretta complained.
"Stop talking, save your energy. It's good that you can't get rid of them. Take them around in circles to buy time for the two princes!"
"Understood!" X3
In fact, their current predicament is indeed caused by themselves. This can be regarded as their first battle after they have passed the training and changed to new machines. The previous capture of the Sakura Country fleet really can't be regarded as it. Naturally, they are a little excited. They get excited while fighting, especially the performance of the new machine, which is too exciting, just like a racing driver driving a faster new car, can't help but step on the accelerator a few more times.
So now they haven't delayed much time, and they can't even delay for too long in the future, but...
The results are good. A small half of Akamatsu's fleet was destroyed. This record may not be as terrible as Yang Hui's, but it is scary enough.
...
On the other side of the battlefield, the town outside the Itsukushima base and the lush grove outside the town have been destroyed beyond recognition. Although it is ammunition used for exercises, it still has a certain explosive power. The trees have been destroyed and the ground is full of potholes.
But compared with the defense line of tanks and soldier components, it is a small witch compared to a big witch.
"Damn it! Are all the Bnitarians monsters?"
"How could the Knightmares do that!?"
"It's too scary, really too scary, how can we win?"
As far as the eye can see, the entire defense line is in a mess. The originally neatly arranged tanks and artillery are either wrapped in white smoke or scattered. The soldiers of the Sakura Country are sitting on the ground in groups, covered in dust, with expressions of fear on their faces.
Originally, they were all arrogant people, and they were all elite troops trained by Akamatsu himself, but... in their eyes, the three Knightmares that should have been easy prey easily tore their pride to pieces and threw them on the ground, which would give them nightmares if they recalled them.
Especially the [Athena] driven by Yang Hui, the double guns in his hands never stopped firing, and even performed a stunt of rotating 360° in the air to keep firing, and the hit rate did not drop at all. There was also the team tactics of the three machines and alternating cover, which was simply an art. People dared not even think about it. They were killed while enjoying the gorgeous performance.
"Oh, I hope others can stop them."
"Forget it, why bother? We're all dead anyway."
"Instead of thinking so much, why not think about how to safely survive the general's disaster."
As the initiator, Yang Hui and his three companions passed through the town at the fastest speed and attacked the main camp of Itsukushima Base.
"Such a tight defense, Yang Hui, we can't get through." Cornelia was also exhausted at this time. It was also her first time to experience such a high-intensity front-line battle. Her physical strength and energy were almost unable to keep up.
"Okay, sister, Regetta, tactical formation S33, cover me!"
"Understood!" X2
[Athena] took the lead, dodging the dense firepower network while changing the magazines for the double guns smoothly. Considering the high-intensity battle, the energy consumption of the energy cannon is too high for the current energy technology, so Yang Hui used the standard machine gun throughout the whole process.
At the same time, Cornelia's Gloucester and Regni Regeta's [Ales] protected [Athena] on both sides, holding their shields high, not to protect themselves, but to protect [Athena].
"Damn it! How is this possible!?"
"Shoot! Shoot!"
Seeing that the speed of the three Knightmares did not slow down at all and quickly enlarged in the sight, the soldiers on the front line were panicked.
"Now! Disperse!"
Cornelia's Gloucester and [Ales] immediately dispersed to both sides, and at the same time threw several smoke bombs into the air, which exploded with a bang. The thick smoke and dust immediately covered the entire area, swallowing up people's sight.
"Damn the Bunitarians, they actually played such a trick!"
"Hurry up and find their location!"
"Over here...Ah~!!!"
"There are some over here...Ah~!!!"
"Where are they? Got a reply! Hello? Hello!?"
The person who called did not get a response, and could not get a response, because the next second the reminder on his chest reminded him that the command vehicle he was riding in had been destroyed and he himself was killed.
"How...how could it be...Itsukushima base...is over..."
The main camp is the most important line of defense for Itsukushima Base. Once the main camp is breached, the defensive forces close to the base will not be able to stop the enemy. He is the highest commander of the main camp. When Akamatsu was away, he was in charge of the entire Itsukushima Base. Now...
It is conceivable that without the leader and being pounced on by several evil tigers, the fate of Itsukushima Base can be imagined.
…
On the sea, Akamatsu was still following the four Knightmares with his fleet in circles. He didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but as time went on and the distance got longer, Akamatsu felt more and more that something was wrong. It was obvious that the enemy couldn't get rid of them. If they kept going like this, they would be captured because their command energy was exhausted.
But they kept running away like this, and now they didn't even fight back, just like...
"It's bad! They are stalling for time! Their ultimate goal is still Itsukushima Base!" Akamatsu figured everything out and immediately ordered the fleet to stop chasing and return to support Itsukushima Base.
At the same time, Akamatsu picked up the phone and planned to contact Itsukushima Base to tell them to be careful. Although he couldn't imagine how Yang Hui could use three Knightmares to break through the defense of Itsukushima Base, he was still worried. As a result...
"I'm Akamatsu. How is the situation at the base?"
"You are General Akamatsu. Nice to meet you."
"...Who are you?" Akamatsu had a bad feeling when he heard the strange voice.
"Nice to meet you, General Akamatsu. I'm Yang Hui."
"Yang Hui! You! How could you..." Akamatsu was stunned. He looked through the glass of the bridge at the Knightmares that were chasing him. All of a sudden, all his thoughts became clear. "Haha...hahahaha...hahahaha... Your Highness Yang Hui, what a good plan, what courage!"
"Thank you, but my subordinates are better than I thought." Yang Hui heard anger and unwillingness in the other party's tone, but he remained calm, as if he had just done something that he could do easily. "I'm also ready to fight General Akamatsu's large army."
"Good, very good! Yang Hui... don't forget, you are in my hands now!"
Yang Hui broke through the Itsukushima base, but those were all exercises. There were injuries, but no deaths. Yang Hui is now carefree in the enemy's base camp. Once Akamatsu is desperate, it is possible to take him down directly.
"Yeah, what should I do? General Akamatsu, tell me, what should I do?" Yang Hui asked Akamatsu jokingly.
"General! Radar detected the signal of the Bunitalian fleet!"
"What!?" Chisong was shocked. Whether it was the location or the timing, it was too coincidental. "Yang Hui! You!"
"So General Chisong, what should we do?"
"..." Chisong was almost biting his silver teeth to pieces at this time. His tightly clenched fist had begun to bleed because his nails had pierced the skin of his palm.
He was angry. He was angry that he was still careless and fell into Yang Hui's trap; he was angry that his base camp was so weak; he was angry that Yang Hui gloated and ridiculed him, and he had no means to fight back.
After a moment of silence, Chisong forced himself to calm down and said to Yang Hui: "Very good, Yang Hui, the exercise is over. I lost this time. You and your people can leave safely."
"Well, thank you General Chisong for your understanding."
After speaking, Yang Hui hung up the communication directly. He believed that Chisong's expression must be very good now, but it was a pity that he could not see it with his own eyes.
"How is it?" Cornelia and Regini Regetta protected Yang Hui, and the three of them were surrounded by soldiers from Itsukushima Base. Both sides pointed their guns at each other, and they were all loaded with live ammunition.
"The exercise is over, we won." Yang Hui spread his hands and said to Cornelia, Regini Regetta, and the surrounding Sakura soldiers with disdain.
"Really? That's good, but..." Cornelia looked around, and murderous intent flashed in her eyes, "They don't plan to let us go."
"Really?" Yang Hui asked the surrounding Sakura soldiers with a smile, "I've heard that the soldiers under General Akamatsu are the best soldiers in Sakura. I guess you won't disobey military orders, right?"
"..." The soldiers began to struggle, one side was humiliating revenge, the other side was Akamatsu's order, and they didn't want to give up on both sides.
"Besides, you have missed the best time." Yang Hui's smile was still playful.
The sound of "buzz buzz buzz" was getting closer and closer, coming from two directions. On one side were Dalton and others who were responsible for the feint attack and diversion, and on the other side was a large helicopter in the sky, which soon landed above the Itsukushima base. Ropes dropped vertically, and well-equipped Bunitallian soldiers slid down to the ground one by one, surrounding the Sakura soldiers who surrounded Yang Hui and the other two.
"Put down your guns!"
