The light of the stars gradually disappeared.
At this time, it was Li Xin's first night on the battlefield.
Compared to the battle in the afternoon, their line did not continue to advance, but instead consolidated the defense here.
An area as large as the Behemoth Steel Plant cannot be taken over in just a few days.
In fact, both sides have already prepared for a long-term battle. It is even conceivable how many enemy soldiers are hiding in the basement of the Behemoth Steel Plant.
At night, after receiving supplies, some of the soldiers remained on guard, while most of the rest had actually retreated a distance and rested here.
The same was true for Li Xin and his team's mechas, which were resting in a newly built small logistics base.
The three mechas moved closer together and formed a circle facing each other. Further out, there were simple warning and defense lines set up by auxiliary soldiers.
Including their armored vehicles, they also formed a circle on the outside to ensure the safety of the mecha in the middle.
Even if you enter a war zone, you cannot stay tense all the time. You still need to rest when it is time to rest.
Otherwise, just like a string, if it is stretched for too long, it will eventually break.
In the center, three mecha warriors sat together in front of a bonfire made of oil barrels and some miscellaneous items.
At this time, they were eating their first meal of the day, with meat!
Li Xin ate with relish. It tasted much better than the energy paste he had eaten in the morning.
These foods were also sent from the logistics base built in the rear area where they entered today.
While eating, Feng Dai asked Li Xinxin, "How did you feel about the battle today?"
Li Xin raised his head and said, "There really is a big difference between combat and training."
"When training, all you have to think about is aiming and firing, but when fighting, there's a lot more to consider."
"And sometimes when we fight, a lot of things get overlooked and we don't pay any attention."
"It's like this when you first go to the battlefield. Maybe you got carried away and didn't care about anything!"
"But you have to be more careful later on. Dealing with these infantry and armored soldiers now is child's play!"
Feng Dai patted Li Xin on the shoulder and continued, "Our real enemy is still the enemy's mecha."
"The battle has just begun. Who knows where those barbarians are hiding."
"Hurry up and practice more, so you don't get caught off guard when the time comes."
"Yes! Brother Feng!"
"After you finish eating, go back to the mecha and rest. This is a war zone, so be extra careful and alert." Jiang Lou said to the two after finishing his food.
"Yes! Boss!"
"Yes! Master!"
Feng Dai stretched and said, "However, the enemy probably won't launch a night attack on the first day."
"You ask me? If I had the final say, would I still be here?" Jiang Lou ignored Feng Dai and turned around to get on his mecha.
Seeing this, Li Xin didn't stay downstairs for long. In fact, if Jiang Lou and Feng Dai had not come down, Li Xin didn't even want to get out of his mecha cockpit.
It’s so dangerous to go out. What if a sniper comes from a distance?
Although the mecha cockpit is not small, it is not spacious either. It is not a comfortable experience to rest in the mecha.
After all, the D-class mecha model of the Dagger Sergeant is still considered a relatively small mecha model, and more space inside the mecha is required to store equipment and ammunition.
As for driver comfort?
The driver also has a place to sit, which is pretty good.
This is because the mecha has psychic power. If there is no psychic power, in order to control such a big guy, it would probably require hundreds or thousands of buttons and switches, and a row of dashboards and screens.
That way, every seat in the cockpit would be fully utilized. The pilot would probably only have a tiny amount of space.
After Li Xin returned to the cockpit, he heard Jiang Lou's voice: "We also need to be on guard at night. Each person should be on guard for two to three hours."
"03 is first class, I'm second class, and 02 is third class."
"Starting tomorrow, we'll start rotating in this order."
"Yes! Boss!"
"Yes! Master!"
Feng Dai and Li Xin quickly replied.
Feng Dai said to Li Xin, "Although auxiliary soldiers have been deployed to guard the perimeter, it is still more important to be extra cautious on the battlefield."
"I understand!" Li Xin nodded repeatedly.
It is better to be safe than sorry. Many war failures in memory may have been caused by the laxity of a certain soldier or a certain unit.
This led to a major failure.
Li Xin doesn't want to become a negative example for others in the future.
And although it is a warning, you don't need to just see it with your eyes or use your body to withstand it.
The mecha is equipped with a radar inside, so it can detect the enemy in time as soon as they approach. There is no need to hide in the battle position and keep eyes open like the infantry.
While on guard, Li Xin was even using chips to learn and accelerate his mastery of mecha knowledge.
Feeling the knowledge filling his brain, Li Xin smiled with satisfaction.
I love learning!
However, Li Xin, who was asleep in the middle of the night, was awakened.
Outside, there are raging sandstorms, and even the transformed human settlements will be affected by this climate change.
The environment on the planet Guansuo 4 is still too harsh.
However, Li Xin soon fell into rest again.
The first day of fighting ended like this, and the expected enemy night attack did not occur.
It wasn't just the first day, the battle seemed to be going very smoothly for several days afterwards.
The enemy seemed to have lost the will to resist, with only sporadic counterattacks, sometimes from snipers hiding in the dark.
They would run after firing a shot. Sometimes they were like guerrilla infantrymen, who would fire a burst of bullets and run away without caring whether they had killed the searching infantrymen or not.
The deer hunters who led the way were terrified. They were attacked every day, sometimes by anti-tank missiles, sometimes by the enemy's electromagnetic guns.
Fortunately, there are infantrymen exploring the way ahead of these tanks, otherwise these deer hunters might not be enough.
In such a battle, the infantry suffered the greatest casualties. There was no other way around it. Many times when exploring the way, these infantry were used as bait.
They are not only soldiers who kill the enemy, but also baits to make the enemy expose their firepower points.
Except for the first day's battle, relatively elite armored infantry were used.
In the following few days of fighting, the soldiers who appeared in the front were from the infantry battalion, and their equipment was relatively simpler.
They don't even have the semi-comprehensive armor protection of the Red Seal II. These soldiers wear bulletproof vests with bulletproof plates installed.
This kind of defense is somewhat useful in resisting gunpowder firearms, but if it is an electromagnetic rifle or something like that, it will be completely useless and will be penetrated directly.
