Volume 4: Biochemical Attack Chapter 648: Big Fight
When the team members heard Li Jiu's decision, they were stunned and frowned.
Although no one had ever questioned Li Jiu's decision before, this time everyone couldn't help but feel shaken.
After all, the situation this time is really too weird.
First of all, everyone couldn’t understand why the people from the 12th Corps would suddenly attack their own people.
Secondly, after the other party attacked everyone, they didn’t even say a word of explanation and wanted everyone to go back. How can we feel at ease?
"Don't think too much." Li Jiu saw everyone's concerns and explained, "Everyone has seen the situation at the 7th Division base. And from this situation, I think even if the people from the 12th Army don't say it, everyone should be able to see that this time the enemy did launch a surprise attack on our front-line troops."
"And if this is true, then I'm afraid that a large number of enemy troops are gathering at the 12th Army Base, and we have long been surrounded by the enemy. Therefore, whether we turn back or not, our lives are in danger."
"And if that's the case, why don't we try our luck? If the people from the 12th Army aren't lying, then we can go back directly."
After listening to Li Jiu's explanation, the team members nodded thoughtfully.
It is indeed just as Li Jiu said, since we have to take the risk anyway, why not choose one that has a greater chance of escape?
"Okay! Let's go back!" Bacchus nodded fiercely and said, "At worst, we can die together. It's worth it to die with everyone else!"
"Yes! Let's go back. Our luck has always been good, and the captain's judgment has never disappointed us. I support the captain's decision!" Xiaodao finally spoke.
At the same time, Bella and Scar also nodded repeatedly.
"Well, let's go back." Seeing this, Li Jiu smiled calmly, nodded, and then said to the hesitant pilot again: "Turn around and go back!"
"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel!" the pilot responded immediately.
Then, the transport plane they were on turned around and flew towards the 12th Army base again.
…
After a while, everyone arrived at the edge of the 12th Army Base again.
But the scene before them shocked everyone.
They saw that many coalition troops who had just withdrawn from the front battlefield came to the 12th Army base with them.
Among them, there are not only a large number of fighter planes and tanks, but also many ground troops marching on foot.
Those who had just arrived at the 12th Army Base thought they could finally go home, but they did not expect to be attacked by their own people.
Many people who were at the front were killed by the attack from the 12th Army Base before they could react.
As for the remaining front-line troops, after seeing the tragic fate of their friendly forces in front of them, they naturally did not dare to approach the base of the 12th Army easily.
Moreover, these front-line troops, like Li Jiu and his men, immediately tried to contact the people in the 12th Army Base after being attacked, wanting to ask them why they attacked their own people.
But the result was the same as that of Li Jiu and his team. The communication applications of these front-line troops were all cruelly rejected by the 12th Army Base without exception.
They didn't know that this time the people from the 12th Army Base were planning to annihilate all of their troops that were withdrawn from the battlefield.
As for these abandoned troops, the people in the base did not even think about giving them unnecessary explanations...
Seeing that they were attacked inexplicably and without any explanation, the front-line troops withdrawing from the battlefield were naturally shocked and angry.
They never imagined that they had been abandoned by the 12th Army.
After all, you have to know that in the past, when the alliance army fought with the defenders, there was a precedent that they had to retreat because of the huge disparity in strength.
But in this case, the alliance also allows the troops to choose to retreat temporarily to preserve their strength.
And today, they encountered this special situation!
At this moment, dozens of miles behind them, there was not only an army of defenders that was several times larger than theirs, but also a red monster with terrifying power.
With the strength of these frontline troops, if they do not choose to retreat, they will eventually be wiped out by the enemy!
Therefore, they had no idea what reason the 12th Army had to attack their withdrawing troops.
As more and more troops withdrew from the front line, they gathered together and directly fought with the people in the 12th Army Base!
Now that they are homeless and in desperate situation , they will not sit there and wait for death!
At this moment, they had no scruples at all. Since the alliance had abandoned them, they had to fight for their own survival.
Even though they knew that it was almost impossible to capture the 12th Army's base with their strength, they still had to fight to the death for a chance of survival.
However, this battle with a huge disparity in strength did not last long. Before the front-line troops were completely wiped out by the people in the 12th Army Base, they lost their composure!
Because the battle only lasted for a moment, many soldiers in the front-line troops who were injured on the battlefield finally could not suppress the biochemical virus in their bodies and turned into Xiaohong!
Speaking of which, those soldiers who were injured by the Little Reds in the battle should have become Little Reds long ago.
However, because they were injected with a large amount of therapeutic drugs in time after being injured, the spread of the virus was temporarily suppressed.
And now, as the wounded soldiers suddenly transformed into Xiaohong, the biological virus began to spread rapidly among these front-line troops.
Before long, the battle on the scene turned into a big fight between the 12th Army Base, the front-line troops, and the Little Reds...
Inside the transport plane in the air, the team members who were watching the ground battle through the cabin window couldn't help but show a look of astonishment.
I didn't expect that after just a short while, this place would become so chaotic.
After seeing the little reds on the ground, Li Jiu's eyes showed a thoughtful look.
Now, he finally understood why the people from the 12th Army Base attacked their own people who were retreating from the direction of the battlefield.
I'm afraid they want to prevent the soldiers infected by the biological virus from returning to the base, or even bringing the biological virus back to the alliance.
Although Li Jiu thought of this, he still felt that it would be too cruel to completely abandon the frontline troops that had withdrawn from the battlefield...
Although those troops returned after being defeated, they had made contributions to the alliance after all.
As the saying goes, even if you have no merit, you should at least have worked hard, right?
Besides, these abandoned front-line troops are actually subordinate units of the 12th Army.
Therefore, it is really inhumane to kill them all like this.
Of course, Li Jiu was just slightly emotional and would not question the alliance officer who issued the order.
After all, he also knew that he and the other party were in different positions, so the things they needed to consider were also different.
Li Jiu could only promise that he would never do the same thing to his teammates...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!..."
Just as Li Jiu was thinking, the transport plane had arrived above the 12th Army's defense zone. The energy beam attacks from the sky passed by them and mercilessly shot towards the front-line fighter planes in the air.
The intensive attack was totally unavoidable. The fighter planes that were targeted by the attack exploded one after another, scattering into pieces all over the sky, and fell down, trailing thick black smoke.
At the same time, those fighter planes that had not been destroyed launched a merciless attack and shot towards the 12th Army base.
However, the attack launched from the aerial fighter was blocked by the energy shield above the base before it landed inside the base.
With the firepower of these remaining fighter planes, they could not pose any threat to the indestructible 12th Army base.
And if the people inside the 12th Army Base do not let them pass, then no fighter plane will be able to cross the base's air defense zone and enter the alliance territory.
Seeing the tragic end of those fighter planes, Li Jiu and others on the transport plane couldn't help but become nervous.
If Li Jiu made a mistake in judgment this time, then within a moment, their transport plane would experience the same fate...
…
At the same time, at the competition venue in Shoushan City.
All the audience at the scene were staring at the scene where Li Jiu and the others were!
And looking at the expressions on these people's faces, they were even more nervous than Li Jiu and the others...
Especially Donna in the VIP seat, she gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, and stared at the floating screen in front of her with bated breath.
"Li Jiu... please don't get into any trouble..." Donna prayed nervously.
The reason why everyone is paying attention to the footage of Li Jiu and his team at this moment is because there are no other teams' footage to watch...
Now, except for the four teams led by Li Jiu that completed their mission, the remaining four teams that failed their mission but are still alive have returned early.
Among Li Jiu's four teams, the strongest Tianjun team arrived at the edge of the alliance first, but was destroyed on the spot.
In addition, although the Falcon Team and the Black Shark Team avoided the first attack, they were still killed by the subsequent attack before they retreated to the safe area.
That is to say, in this Shoushan City competition, the only team that has a hope of winning the city championship is Li Jiu and his team's fifth team!
Next, as long as they can get back to the competition venue before 8 o'clock in the evening, no matter how long it takes them, the city championship will be theirs.
But the premise is that the people from the 12th Army Base will really not attack them...
"Look! They flew over! They have flown over the 12th Army's air defense zone!" Suddenly an audience member cheered loudly.
