Chapter 157 Pine Valley
Oceania.
Alice Springs Township, Northern Territory.
This is a quiet town located on the south side of the MacDonnell Ranges, a rare mountain range in the heart of Oceania, surrounded by dry valleys with little rainfall.
About 18 kilometers southwest of Alice Springs is the world-famous yet very low-key Pine Valley.
Early October in Oceania is the spring season with the most suitable climate in the year.
The residents of Pine Valley are all Americans. They are all employees of the Pine Valley base, or special employees of the American NSA.
There are thousands of employees and their families on the base, and Australians are not allowed to enter.
The evening breeze is mixed with the residual heat of the setting sun.
After a busy day, Bucky went to the only bar in the base with a few colleagues, intending to relieve his inner emptiness and loneliness.
After all, this base is surrounded by desolate mountains and deserts, and even kangaroos are rarely seen. In addition, due to internal confidentiality, surrounding Australians are unable to enter here. Therefore, they can only relieve their inner restlessness by playing games, exercising, drinking and so on.
Pushing open the door of the bar, the bartender and owner Holden said: "Welcome... Hello, Bucky."
“A glass of Golden Years and a grilled sausage platter.” Bucky pulled out a chair.
His colleague Rogers said with a decadent look on his face: "A glass of sky blue, with ice, and a plate of nut platter."
"OK..."
Bucky smiled and consoled him, “It’s just a breakup. When our contract ends next year, there will be a ton of hot chicks out there.”
" I don't want to stay in this damn place for a moment. It's nothing but sand and stones. It's a nightmare. I should have gone to Texas Instruments..." Rogers muttered to himself.
Just when Bucky was about to speak.
Boom boom boom…
More than a dozen radars in Pine Valley, as well as a large number of satellite antenna receiving devices and data buildings, all experienced violent explosions.
The explosion area was filled with flames and thick smoke.
"Fuck? What's going on?" Bucky subconsciously hid under the table.
Rogers pushed open the door of the bar in fear, his eyes filled with disbelief and fear, muttering to himself: "Data Center... Jenny! Fuck..."
Old Holden took out a rifle from behind the wine cabinet and passed by Rogers: "The base has been attacked. It is now on alert. Bucky, don't pretend to be unconscious. Hurry and get your weapon."
Rogers, who had just woken up from a dream, and Bucky, who looked embarrassed, quickly took out a revolver, a bulletproof helmet and a bulletproof vest from the small secret room behind the wine cabinet.
Obviously old Horton is more than just a bar owner.
The three appeared on the street and saw the chaotic residents and the core area of the base in the distance.
Soon they met the base's guards. The captain of the guards, Cadillac, said seriously, "Holden, you must organize the residents to enter the air-raid shelter as soon as possible. Our communications have been cut off, and the enemy is very likely to be nearby."
"How is that possible? Don't we have a satellite phone?" Horton was horrified.
Cadillac explained: "You should know that in order to avoid leaks, satellite communications here can only go through three specific base stations. Now those three base stations have been blown up, and the wired telephone lines and fiber optic lines have also been cut off."
"Damn it!" Horton knew he was in big trouble.
Pine Valley is of extraordinary importance and is an indispensable base for America to monitor the world.
The base has now been completely cut off from the outside world. Even if the nearest town of Alice Springs wants to get here, it will take about half an hour.
Cadillac prepared to split his troops into two groups, one to rescue the base's facilities and personnel, and the other to guard against surrounding enemies.
As one of the secret intelligence chiefs stationed in Pine Valley, Horton took Bucky, Rogers and other young and middle-aged people and began to send the old, weak and sick to the air-raid shelter.
…
Mountains northwest of Pine Valley.
More than a dozen Blood Blade soldiers are maintaining their invisible state. The only non-soldier Blood Blade member is Mang Qingshi who was previously recruited from the Burmese army.
He is also the person in charge of this operation. Through the pheromone organ built into his body, he has received feedback from monitored insects 7 kilometers away.
[Execute the indiscriminate bombing plan.]
A group of Blood Blade soldiers who received the pheromone commands quickly launched a number of modified drones from a natural cave.
Soon the drones took off quickly.
After releasing the drone, Mang Qingshi gave another order: [Take back some of the monitoring insects and start preparing to evacuate. ]
[receive.].
Cadillac, who was directing the guards to set up defense facilities at the outpost outside Pine Valley, was observing the dark night sky with an infrared telescope.
Suddenly he seemed to hear a faint sound in his ears.
Before he could hear clearly, he heard a violent explosion on the observation tower directly in front of him.
boom!
“Ahh…”
"Enemy attack! Take cover!"
Boom boom boom…
Intensive explosions sounded all around, and hundreds of electric drones with a payload of only 5 kilograms launched bombings on the guards and militiamen through infrared sensing systems.
The Pine Valley, which had already been severely damaged, was now completely reduced to ruins.
The blazing remains of wooden houses, as well as scrapped cars and electrical appliances, were also emitting black smoke.
Cadillac, who was hiding in the bunker, was breathing rapidly with lingering fear. He had already seen the things that attacked Pine Valley. They were drones.
Unfortunately, the base's electromagnetic jammer was unusable because its power generation system was destroyed.
In fact, they can be used without interfering with the effect, because the systems of these drones have been processed to prevent interference, and they are disposable items with fixed functions.
The weakness of Pine Valley is that there are no cities or farms around it, and even large wild animals are rare.
The reason why Mang Qingshi didn't launch drone bombing at the beginning was to give the elderly, weak and sick a chance to enter the air-raid shelter.
Those who did not enter the air-raid shelter, namely the guards and militia, could launch an attack directly.
There are no other large creatures around, and the drone's infrared recognition system can lock onto the target very accurately without any accidental bombing.
Wait for the bombing to end in ten minutes.
Cadillac then ran out of the bunker in disgrace with a few remaining soldiers.
Looking at the devastated Pine Valley, Cadillac was in tears.
At the same time, more than a dozen American bases around the world suffered attacks to varying degrees.
However, the losses at Pine Valley Base were definitely the most serious.
The NSA did not care too much about the loss of personnel, but the destroyed facilities in Pine Valley and the confidential information stored in the data center made the NSA feel extremely painful.
This is also the reason why Victor in Sing Island feels so flustered at this moment.
The fact that two hundred seals and the convert forces they supported lost contact directly in Medan was enough to give him a headache.
Now the Black Ship headquarters has directly asked the Black Ships around the world to put aside other work and focus on investigating the attacks on various overseas bases.
Being able to launch such intensive attacks all over the world at the same time, it is obvious that this force has already posed a strong threat to America.
America and the city on the hill behind it will not give up until this force is found.
Therefore, the Black Ship's intelligence forces around the world were drawn to investigate this matter.
