The 173rd chapter disaster (1)
After Rhode killed the leader, the battle on the camp was coming to an end. After the 105th Dagger troops suffered several casualties, GINN was completely destroyed, and the death seemed extremely miserable, as if they were cut into pieces as if they were dismantled. The ordinary guerrilla soldiers were evenly tragic. On the way to rush into the jungle, a large area was killed by infantry fire from the side, and hundreds of corpses were evenly distributed on the dirt road from the camp to the jungle.
At this time, there was also a roar in the sky, dozens of armed helicopters flew past, and the MSs of two squadrons were also airborne from the transport plane, as if they were deliberately pressing a stopwatch. The battle here had just ended and reinforcements had just arrived. The Earth Army, which had suffered heavy casualties, was a little angry and disappointed, but the mercenaries who were used to being sold by their teammates had no emotion.
Rhode drove the broken duel Gundam and found an open space to stop, and he ran out of the cockpit. Even though there were sporadic resistance on the battlefield, it was no longer a threat to the "Smoke Demon Wolf".
"Hisser Rhode, I'll take over the command!" A powerful voice came from the communicator. Rhode did not object, and immediately transferred the command. He stood on the cockpit armor plate and looked at the village. Everyone who resisted inside was shot dead on the spot. Several female coordinators and pilots were even more miserable. They were dragged by the tyrannical Earth Army soldiers and pulled them directly into the corner. The shrill howls made Rhode, a guy who was used to the big scenes, numb.
In the just-concluded war, the two armies still maintained their basic face, but they only pretended not to know about this guerrilla team that was not a regular army. In fact, Rhodes did not sympathize with them. The war was over, and it was a good day to put PLANT, but they had to get to the jungle to commit suicide.
He lit a cigarette, and Mars disappeared, and the blue smoke drifted far away.
Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, another month passed. After the rebels in the United States of South America were destroyed by Rhodes in the largest military base in the Amazon basin, the Earth Army also took advantage of the victory to chase and wipe out the remaining resistance points in the jungle, using MS direct space, and then the infantry followed up with the tactics of encirclement and suppression. After all, except for a few soldiers, the rest of the guerrillas did not have combat qualities. If they were really fired by the steel giants of more than 10 meters, their psychological endurance had collapsed.
In addition, the slightly revived Earth United Lunar Fleet began to strengthen surveillance of low-Earth orbit. After losing the support of weapons from certain PLANT families, the United States of South America's army could no longer stop being defeated.
A large transport plane stopped at the airport in St. Paul, United States of South America. The important facilities in this important town have been replaced by the guards of the Earth Army's Atlantic Federal forces. The runway was still a little uneven, which obviously seemed to have not ended the battle for too long.
The cabin door opened, and Gipriel walked down first, but there was a brunette man among the group of Earth Army officers behind him. It was Rhode who had not appeared recently. After the Amazon Basin Battle, the "monkey version" duel was also seriously injured. There was no new body call for LOGOS for a while, so Gipriel had to recruit him into the staff team.
To be honest, Rhodes' plan is far from that group of professional staff members, but he has to take on-site command and combat experience. This top students from the college are not Rhodes' opponents. Out of professional ethics, he also devoted his heart and responsibility to switch to temporary staff members. The Atlantic Federal Army was able to break through the Amazon basin so easily, and his contribution was indispensable.
After the crowd walked down the gangway, a major general of the Earth Army responded first. It was also seen here that the chairman of the LOGOS was too faced and asked the commander of the vanguard troops to greet him in person.
"Your Excellency, welcome to Saint Paul." The general saluted with more than a dozen officers behind him. He was undoubtedly very respectful to the LOGOS master who was also visiting the front line.
Gipriel nodded slightly, shook hands with the general and said, "How is the battle situation of St. Paul?" As soon as he finished speaking, Rhodes behind him frowned. The new chairman was winning the hearts of the people again. After so many days of getting along, he found that Gipriel had no combat knowledge at all. If he had to compare, he would be even worse than his ex-Azrael.
However, the generals on the front line did not know about these secrets. The major general immediately reported: "The urban suppression has been completed 70%, but there is still fierce resistance in the slums. The main reason is that the anti-chariot infantry and some ZAFT remnants are more troublesome. If MS is invested, it is easy to be destroyed by infantry mixed with civilians. The population there is relatively dense. For public opinion, we cannot invest in powerful weapons."
The ubiquitous war correspondents are a group of people that frontline soldiers hate very much. If the scene of killing in Earth Army uniforms is announced, it will be a big problem.
Gipriel didn't say anything. He didn't have many tactics and strategic minds except for political struggle methods. Looking at the major general beside him looking at him with great anticipation, he finally spoke: "Captain Rhodes, what do you think?"
Rhode seemed to have expected it, and even when the major general was talking, he was thinking secretly in his heart. Street fighting was his strength, so he slowly replied: "In my opinion, either use MS and infantry to bite it at once, or use the center's flowering tactics to select elite MS teams and remove the opponent's MS or heavy weapons."
"We have done what you said. The headquarters requires us to end the Battle of St. Paul before the end of the month. And if we use fixed-point clearance, the strength of this group of coordinator die-hard members is very good. We are at a disadvantage in a single-player or squad-level attack." The major general glanced at Rhodes and found that the latter was not wearing military uniforms, and he was not sure of his identity. His tone was not too stiff, but he was far from being at a disadvantage. Last time, two teams were selected to airborne and clear, but he was beaten by the opponent's MS and anti-armored infantry.
Here, it is near the sea. No matter how the idiot-like navy intercepts, there are always weapons and parts smuggled in.
As the general finished speaking, Rhode smiled and said slowly: "This is why Lord Giprier invited me for a high employment fee."
Seeing that he was relaxed, the major general was about to scold him, but the officer next to him muttered a few words in his ear, and the general's eyes really condensed. He had heard of the reputation of the "Smoke Demon Wolf" before, but he had experienced the battle in the Amazon basin.
"Yes, this is the role of Captain Rhode." Jipril also laughed, "So, I should accept my gift." He pointed to another transport plane parked by the runway. The huge heavy truck was slowly dragging out an MS. When Rod saw it, his face showed a very satisfied look. The PS armor was not unfolded, but it was still gray. There were only two ship-cutting knives hanging behind him. His whole body seemed to have undergone optimization. That was his old friend-
