At this time, no one would continue to think about war.
Almost at the same time as the sandstorm was discovered, except for the mecha troops who were still on guard against each other, other troops chose to cease fire at the same time.
We fight to kill our enemies, not to die with them.
However, there were soldiers from Milda's Retainers Army who, seeing that there were no shelters or armored vehicles around, decided to take the enemy with them and die together.
The fire continued fiercely, but after the sandstorm hit, the visibility was extremely poor.
Even if soldiers wear goggles, it is not easy for them to see two or three meters away.
And this is because the sandstorm has just begun, and it will only get worse.
"God! Please, this is just a small sandstorm!"
"My Lord...save your believers..."
Some people began to prostrate themselves on the ground, lowering their heads and praying softly.
A small sandstorm at Guansuo 4 might only take about ten minutes to blow across the battlefield.
If it’s a big one, it may blow for several days.
Ordinary infantrymen did not know the situation, but some commanders did.
Some commanders sat powerlessly in armored vehicles.
Some have even turned off the headsets on the communication channel, because it is foreseeable that the communication channel will continue to be filled with the terrified voices and even wailing of soldiers before their death.
No one wants to hear those words.
Before flying away, the fighter jets in the air had already detected that the sandstorm was extremely widespread and it might take at least a day to dissipate.
There is no way to monitor and prevent the sandstorms in Guansuo 4, and it is difficult to predict when they will occur.
However, the size of the dust storms can be used to predict when they will subside.
Even an iron man couldn't withstand the sandstorm for a whole day.
“Get in the car!”
"Where's the third brother? Where's he?!"
"Gather together!"
"Tanks are outside, armored vehicles are in the inner circle!!"
On the other side, the armored forces of Blueprint and Heng'an were also gathering rapidly. The number of infantrymen they carried was not large, at least enough to fit into the armored vehicles.
But even so, with the sandstorm coming so quickly, many infantrymen were still left behind.
The fierce battle just now took place on a very large battlefield, and the infantrymen were unable to follow the movement of the armored vehicles and were constantly dispersing.
The sandstorm came so suddenly that it didn't give anyone much time to react.
In an instant, it was as if the world was shrouded in a gray curtain. The visibility was poor and the electromagnetic environment was even worse. You could still hear talking, but behind it might be the chaotic sound of electric current.
In this case, the infantrymen who did not return could not be found or seen at all.
At the beginning, I could still cover my head and rush towards the coordinates, but later on, electronic equipment became useless and even finding the location coordinates of the vehicle became a problem.
In an instant, the world entered a noisy environment.
All the battles stopped at this moment. Even the mecha troops would not continue fighting under such circumstances.
It's too dangerous because the visibility is poor and veterans have more experience, but this harsh environment will bring everyone to the same level.
The mecha troops of both sides retreated in tacit understanding.
Everyone has a few hundred energy coins a month. You can risk your life, but you can't really seek death.
"Retreat, move closer to me!"
“Retreat!!”
"Find the coordinates of the armored unit and move over!"
In the command channel, Li Xin shouted loudly, asking all the mechas to move closer to the position of the armored vehicles.
This is something that must be done. The current visual environment is poor, both for us and the enemy.
The fighting seemed to have stopped, and everyone was avoiding the horrific natural disaster.
But if the enemy's knight squire accidentally strays near the armored unit, that would be the beginning of real terror.
A mecha can easily destroy many armored vehicles.
Therefore, the mecha troops quickly gathered at the gathering points of the armored units.
Afterwards, these armored vehicles, escorted by mechas, slowly retreated in unison.
“Huff, huff, huff~~”
Inside the mecha cockpit, Li Xin listened to the whistling wind outside and the sound of dense sand and gravel hitting the mecha.
The sound was quite fragmented, and it was obvious that most of it was small sand and gravel.
But as time went by, the intensity of the howling wind outside continued to increase, and what was blowing over was no longer fine sand and gravel.
Large rocks were also blown up.
In the cockpit of the mecha, Li Xin looked at the ground. The tracks and wheels of the Deerslayer below were even beginning to be submerged.
These armored vehicles started their engines and moved back and forth continuously to prevent themselves from being buried by the blown sand and gravel.
In this situation, infantrymen who did not enter armored vehicles had almost no hope of survival.
Not to mention whether they will be blown away, the dust in the sky will make it difficult for them to breathe. Once they stop moving, they may be completely buried and suffocated to death.
Of course, there are more ways to die than this. You may also be killed by blowing stones.
On the other side, the knights and attendants of the Milda Knights were also slowly gathering together.
Looking at the only remaining armored vehicle, the commander in the knight mech with the big head sighed and said, "Let's start to retreat slowly!"
Someone asked, "Retreat in this situation?"
The commander said solemnly, "That's right! The enemy reinforcements have arrived. Before the sandstorm hit, the Air Force had already detected that at least one squadron of enemy mechas was not far from here!"
"We should be thankful that this sandstorm blew onto the battlefield. Otherwise, once the enemy reinforcements arrived, it would have been difficult for us to escape."
"Notify the armored units and begin evacuation!"
"Keep an eye on their armored vehicles. If you see one about to be blown away, press it!"
"yes!"
"receive!"
The commander's order was quickly conveyed, and groups of knights and their followers began to gather and escort the remaining armored vehicles to retreat.
Now is the only time for them to leave, because the electromagnetic interference caused by the sandstorm is not the most serious at this time.
If they wait any longer, they will have almost no means of communication, and they won’t even be able to accurately locate their coordinates. They may accidentally evacuate to the wrong place.
That's when I really couldn't run away even if I wanted to.
Although the environment of this desert Gobi is generally flat, there are still many small ups and downs. Many times armored vehicles cannot pass through and can only choose to go around it.
If the positioning and coordinate signals are lost, the final position may be greatly offset, even though it may only be an angle at the beginning.
