Chapter 66: Departure to Rockford Island
The next day, Long Yuan came to the mountain where the Qinglong Army was stationed, also called Qinglong Mountain. All the soldiers of the Four Spirits Legion had gathered here.
Looking at the well-equipped soldiers below, Long Yuan felt a surge of pride.
The overall appearance of the Four Spirits Legion is as follows.
The Four Spirits Legion's armband is simply embroidered with three distinctive elements: the four mythical beasts, representing an ancient and powerful force; the golden mist beneath the beasts' feet, signifying both the unit's identity and its ability to be rapidly deployed anywhere on Earth; and the red-edged blue ribbon at the bottom of the armband bears the name of the Four Spirits Legion's affiliated organization, "Hongmeng."
In terms of equipment, in addition to using the standard infantry weapons range of the British Army, the Four Spirits Legion is also equipped with Sigsol's 9mm pistol and MP59mm submachine gun, and is also equipped with a 12.7mm caliber sniper rifle, which can destroy aircraft, shoot down helicopters and even penetrate the armor of light vehicles.
The protective gear is equipped with black bulletproof vests, black bulletproof vests, belts and boots. The standard-issue gas masks and gray anti-flash hoods make the whole set of equipment more complete.
The most eye-catching army among the Four Symbols Legions is the Suzaku Army. Most of the soldiers in the army are girls, and some of them are good-looking.
For example, Jill's Nuwa team was selected from here and is composed entirely of women.
Long Yuan was too lazy to say anything inspiring. He just said that the salary had doubled during the days of fighting, which was more inspiring than anything else.
After boarding the armed helicopter, other soldiers also boarded one after another. Because there were not enough helicopters, except for the vanguard, the others went on transport ships.
Leaving behind ten thousand men from the outer legion and the Four Elephants Legion to guard the house, the remaining ten thousand men marched towards Rockford Island in a mighty force.
Hundreds of armed helicopters were flying in front, and the wind created by the propellers made the sea surface rough. Behind them, there was a large number of transport ships heading towards Rockford Island.
After flying for a long time, the armed helicopter was able to see Rockford Island. At this time, the soldiers who had conducted advance reconnaissance sent a message .
"Calling Boss, Nightingale One has discovered that the island appears to have been bombed. Over."
"Received. Confirm the safety situation around the landing point and wait for the arrival of follow-up troops." Long Yuan said while touching the earphones.
"Got it, I promise to complete the task."
"Point for command!" Nightingale gave an order from the armed helicopter.
Before he finished speaking, soldiers wearing special equipment slid down from five armed helicopters at the port of Rockford Island one after another, taking turns to cover and occupy the commanding heights .
"Boss, the mission has been completed, follow-up troops can proceed to land..." The conversation suddenly stopped, and gunshots and explosions were heard from the headphones.
After waiting for a moment, the communication was restored: "Sorry, Boss, we were attacked. A third party force, HCF, appeared on this island. They attacked our attack helicopters and one was destroyed."
After saying that, Nightingale waited anxiously for what Long Yuan would say in the headset. He had just led a mission for the first time and destroyed an armed helicopter. This was his dereliction of duty.
"Is anyone dead?" Long Yuan's voice came from inside after a while.
"Reporting to the boss, no, the moment the helicopter exploded, the pilot and the soldier operating the secondary weapon jumped out. There happened to be sea below, so they are fine."
"That's good. We can buy more helicopters if we don't have them. We can't buy more people if we don't have them. Your safety is the most important." Long Yuan's words spread throughout the entire communication channel, and he immediately gained a lot of loyal fans.
The Nightingale on the opposite side was also very moved. In an era when most capitalists did not take soldiers seriously, it was their luck to meet such a wise leader.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the HCF forces were also contacting the headquarters.
"Headquarters, headquarters, please reply." said the task force captain.
"Headquarters received, task force, please report your status!"
"A third-party force has arrived on this island. We have had our first clash with them. One of their attack helicopters was destroyed, and five of our men were killed.
Judging from the fighting, the enemy's strength is no less than ours . "Should we continue the mission?" the captain said solemnly.
There was silence for a moment, probably because the person on the other end went to ask for instructions from his superiors.
"Task force, you have been ordered to continue the mission. We will send a helicopter to pick you up after you obtain the items. If necessary, we will send bombers to interfere with the enemy again." A cold voice came from the headset.
"Yes! The task force received it!" The captain had no choice but to continue the mission and look for the T-Veronica virus.
Next, the follow-up troops landed safely on the island, and a large number of soldiers advanced tactically, setting up a defense line 500 meters outside the port.
Finally, the soldiers on the transport ship also arrived on the island, bringing with them a large amount of weapons and a complete air defense system.
Engineers installed on-site and various firepower points were being quickly arranged. In just one or two hours, the port had turned into a small fortress.
There are all kinds of heavy machine guns, small-caliber cannons, and anti-aircraft machine guns. To capture such a port, you must have ten times the number of troops and excellent weapons and equipment.
After the temporary base was built, Long Yuan sent his soldiers out, leaving only 5,000 people to defend it.
Five thousand people left in five directions. For a while, gunshots were heard everywhere on the island. It should be the soldiers fighting with zombies. Fortunately, these soldiers knew what kind of monsters they would face during training and had received special training.
If it were an external legion, it might be a bit tricky, but this is the Four Spirits Legion. The first condition for them to join this legion is that five people can fight against a tyrant.
The Saint Team is even more abnormal. They must face the pursuers alone and have to persist until the second form before they can enter.
These tyrants and pursuers are of course the masterpieces of Annie and Bud. With the support of Longyuan's huge amount of funds and a large number of death row prisoners, they are able to mass-produce tyrants. The pursuers are special and only one has been produced.
Hearing the gunshots outside, Long Yuan suddenly felt itchy and was about to sneak out when he was stopped by Mitchell.
"Boss, you want to run away again. How can I tell Gil if you do this? When he left, he asked me to keep a close eye on you and not let you take any risks." Mitchell said helplessly.
Jill didn't come this time because they had other tasks, which were to go to the European branch of Umbrella Corporation to steal NE-α parasites and cultivation materials.
With the NE-a parasite, they can create more pursuers and carry them with them in future operations.
"Hmph, what do you say? That woman dares to rebel? Just say that I never went out ." Long Yuan looked disdainful.
