Chapter 848 Chapter 850 The Sword Light Falling from the Sky
"It looks like we can't count on reinforcements. Fortunately, Zishu came back in time, otherwise we wouldn't be able to plug this hole even if we all sacrificed our lives! This time it's really thanks to Changqing!" Jingyuan sighed.
"Yeah, what should we do next?" Yan Cheng asked. This time the space crack was different from the previous ones. Even if Yan Zishu brought many weapons, the situation was still very serious.
"Send the order, activate the defense formation, withdraw all combat units, and switch to battlefield defense!"
"Please ask the leaders of each combat unit to come to the command room!" President Jingyuan gave two orders in succession.
"President, are we just going to ignore those monsters? Although the survivors in the surrounding safe zones have been evacuated, there are still a lot of these monsters. If they run away, there will probably be casualties!" An officer said worriedly. If these monsters gather in a certain area, they might form new dangerous areas.
"We are short of manpower now. We can deal with the monsters later, which will just take more effort than now. What we have to deal with now are the incoming invaders. If one of these invaders escapes, there will be endless troubles!" President Jingyuan said helplessly.
There was silence in the command room. Most of those invading foreign monks had extremely high combat capabilities and were very difficult to deal with. They were good at hiding their whereabouts, and once they left the battlefield and turned from light to darkness, it would be difficult to find their traces.
Those foreign monks were different from the previous ones who fought for power. Under the encirclement of the military, they had begun to form groups and infiltrate the civilian and official circles in various ways. In the past, most of the outsiders were killed in the space cracks. Not many of them survived, and the threat they posed could still be controlled. But this time, within just one month, eleven space cracks appeared in the sky. The number of invaders was dozens of times that of the past, and more and more people slipped through the net, which has seriously threatened the stability of the united front for human survival.
The main purpose of President Jingyuan convening a meeting of all the generals was to take stock of all available firepower and combat power and formulate a new combat plan, because, judging from the monitoring data, they did not have much time left.
In the command room, dozens of generals in battlefield defense uniforms gathered around a round table. On the round table was a huge battlefield sand table with many models densely placed on it and various flags flying on it.
"Generals, this is our last meeting before the war. Everyone is familiar with the combat procedures, but this time is different from the past. The situation is very unfavorable to us." President Jingyuan looked at the familiar faces around him, and his heart felt like it was filled with stones.
The Fifth Legion has fought in four battlefields within this month. In the first three battles, they almost wiped out the enemy. However, even if they won a great victory, they inevitably suffered losses. Within this month, more than 2,000 soldiers died in battle. They were all elite soldiers who had experienced hundreds of battles. Among them were three top combat forces and four battlefield commanders. You know, those who can serve as battlefield commanders are at least regimental-level officers. Every loss is heartbreaking.
"This time the space crack is more stable than the previous ones, so it exists longer, and more people can pass through in the same period of time. And judging from the landing of monsters during this period, there are many monsters, high levels, and the landing time is scattered. In the past, our biggest reliance on annihilating the enemy was the forbidden spirit formation. We trapped the enemy within the range of the forbidden spirit formation with firepower attacks, and then activated the formation to annihilate them one by one. At present, the formation has been deployed in a specific location, but the activation process of the formation is cumbersome and the duration is short. And this time the number of invaders is large and scattered, so we can't annihilate all the invaders at once. After the forbidden spirit formation disk loses its effectiveness, we will be fiercely counterattacked by the invaders."
"The first front will bear the brunt of the attack. This time, the casualty rate is impossible to estimate!" President Jingyuan said this with some difficulty. The first front has always been the location with the most casualties.
"President, this time it's my turn to go to the front line!" Just as President Jingyuan finished speaking, a young officer stood up and inserted a triangular red flag on the edge of the forbidden spirit array.
"Xu Mo, this piece of land is what I like, get out of here!" Someone nearby pulled out the flag that Xu Mo had just planted and replaced it with his own flag.
"Captain Yan, you used to fight with me for the flag and I always gave in to you. But not this time! You have a few-month-old baby at home, and your sister-in-law is waiting for you to come back!" Xu Mo grabbed Yan Pengcheng's hand and pushed his flag back.
"You two stop arguing. You are both young, and things like this should be handled by us old guys!" said an officer with slightly gray hair.
The first front line is taken up by various combat units in turn. In the current situation, everyone knows that it is a life-and-death situation, yet no one retreats.
"Everyone, this time we have to draw five battle lines. The first three lines are within the range of the orbital guns and are the extremely dangerous front lines." President Jingyuan drew five encirclement circles on the position sand table.
"This is a complete battle plan drawn up by the General Staff based on our existing forces and equipment. Everyone, take a look. If you have any good suggestions, you can bring them up for discussion. If there are no objections, please write down this battle plan. We don't have much time left!"
"President, the monitoring station has an urgent report. Violent energy fluctuations have occurred in the space crack! It is about to arrive..."
"Buzz" a huge buzzing sound was heard, and everyone in the command room looked up at the sky. A sword-shaped white light passed through the crack in space and fell from the sky. "Boom," the earth shook, gullies appeared everywhere, and the sky and the earth were blood red.
Under the sword light, the fleeing monsters and the soldiers who had not yet retreated all turned into blood foam, and deep pits could be seen everywhere.
President Jingyuan felt as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water on his head. "Go quickly, the Forbidden Spirit Array needs to be redeployed. The mecha team must protect the team setting up the array. They cannot suppress the enemy with firepower for the time being. High-level practitioners will take over the firepower suppression. The invaders must be controlled within the range of the Forbidden Spirit Array!" President Jingyuan's voice brought everyone back to their senses.
The sword light that fell from the sky suddenly hit the vital point of the previous layout, and the situation became even worse.
