Three hundred and seventy one retreat
The bastards in the military are blind people with open eyes. Can't they see that all these are obstacles set by the 505 Group Army?
At most, these words can only be complained privately. The military headquarters is very clear about the purpose of this battle. Even when the division commander was still healthy two days ago, he asked the military headquarters to stop the march and retreated to the rear base for rest. It was rejected by the military headquarters and the Joint Staff meeting.
The major was extremely angry about this.
He believed that the people in the military headquarters simply did not take the front-line officers and soldiers seriously. Without vehicles and combat machinery, the 10th Infantry Division had lost 50% of its combat effectiveness. The sick soldiers that continued to arise along the way caused a large number of troops to be reduced. Although the soldiers did not die, they could not reach the designated area smoothly. Even if he and the more than 300 people around him walked to the new Guiyang base without any damage, what could they do?
There is no heavy equipment, no subsequent reinforcements, and even lack of daily supplies and ammunition. Isn’t this going to die?
As for the order required by the military headquarters to "search carefully along the way", the major still did it, but scoffed at the result.
Apart from the refugees, the search team did not find any suspicious targets.
The waiting in silence is confusing and unbearable. The military headquarters has not responded to the telecommunications, and the sun is still dazzling. The soldiers stood under the shade of trees without expression, only sweat dripping along their chins to the ground, soaking in dry soil.
A silenceless veteran broke the silence first: "I heard that the commander of the 505 Army is very smart, a young man with excellent results and great ability to fight."
The person next to him quickly continued the conversation: "I have heard of that guy named Su Hao. The several tactics we use now were all proposed by him first. It is said that he killed hundreds of thousands of monsters in Lujiang City in the same way, and his battle results were brilliant."
"Hey, do you remember that secret video circulating on the military network last year? It is said that it was a live video of Su Hao getting angry at the military meeting. He was so angry that an important leader of the military headquarters was so angry that he wanted to death. I like this guy, he always stood on our side."
The medical soldier wiped the sweat from his forehead and joined the conversation circle: "You may not know that energy potion was also Su Hao's invention. However, not many people know about this, but that thing works very well and can save your life at critical moments."
The correspondent soldier was a young man in his twenties. He glanced at the electronic screen that still had no reply signal and asked curiously: "According to what you said, Su Hao should be considered a good person?"
The medical soldier smiled faintly: "Of course. I was seriously injured during the last siege. If there were no energy potion, I would have died now."
The communications soldier's expression was full of confusion: "Since that's the case, why should we attack the new Guiyang base? It is the jurisdiction of the 505th Army, and their commander is Su Hao. Those guys in the military department are so full of food, right? Why should we attack that kind of place?"
The veteran picked up a cool place and sat down, saying slowly: "Have you seen the brochure issued by the military headquarters? Su Hao treason, a rebel, was sentenced to death by the military court in absentia. Of course, they would not let a criminal go to justice."
The young correspondent shook his head: "I don't think so. There are too many things to make up a crime as a reason for murder. Haven't you watched the previous movies? The protagonists who were chased in it did not make any mistakes, they were all so-called guilty imposed by others. I think we are now acting as thugs."
No one continued to answer the conversation, and the scene fell silent again.
The electronic screen is still a piece of orchid screen. The person in charge of replying to the message seems to have come to his aunt, or are fighting a strong man in the bathroom. This speculation is not unreasonable. The person in charge of telecommunications is usually women, with good figures, beautiful appearances, and is chased and ravaged like butterflies.
The major's gloomy face showed no sign of letting go. He paced back and forth in the same place. After nearly five minutes, he suddenly turned around and shouted at the waiting soldiers with great anxiety.
"Everyone turned on the spot, targeted, field supply points twenty kilometers away."
He no longer had the patience to continue waiting.
Whether it is disobeying on the battlefield or disobeying orders, those guys can do whatever they want. It's a big deal. Even if I take off my military uniform, even if I become a civilian, it's much better than being so stubborn now.
Besides, the soldiers are right, fighting with a good person is always unreasonable.
In the temporary command center, Sibo connected Yuan Zhicheng's special line.
"How is the situation?"
“Very bad.”
Sibo reported the relevant items to Yuan Zhicheng in an orderly manner, including the actual losses of the round-up troops, casualties, definition of the time before and after, and the detailed process of the matter, etc.
It has been a long time since Su Hao rushed out of the encirclement. Two hours ago, the early warning aircraft sent a message back: They lost Su Hao's trace.
The reason why I chose to report the detailed incident to Yuan Zhicheng is not that Sibo is afraid to take responsibility. He is very clear that when the news of the failed battle is captured, someone will naturally report to Yuan Zhicheng in advance. As the specific executor of the action plan, he must come up with more convincing and important things.
Yuan Zhicheng's eyes were deep in his eyes, and his appearance was older than usual. He looked a little tired, leaned back on the sofa, and said in a slow tone that was unique to the elderly: "Didn't Sun Zhan say it was foolproof when he made the plan? You have also seen the planning steps and thought that each step was very accurate and there was no need to modify it. Why did it become like this now?"
"Su Hao's trump card is far beyond imagination."
Sibo's face was extremely solemn and his tone was sonorous: "What he has is not just a super army. Judging from the actual combat situation, he has surpassed the highest limit of strengthening people. I don't know what happened to him while he followed the delegation to the United States? But I can be sure that he has now become an evolved person."
Yuan Zhicheng suddenly opened his eyes and released an incredible look.
"Evolutionary? How is this possible?"
Sibo clicked the battle video on the screen behind him and said in a deep voice: "This is the fact. Only in this way can the series of changes that happened to Su Hao."
Yuan Zhicheng frowned and breathed calmly: "Is this your guess? Or have you mastered tangible evidence?"
Sibo stood up straight and replied with certainty: "It's my personal guess."
Yuan Zhicheng changed a more comfortable sitting posture, with a expression full of worry and doubt: "Since you are an evolutionary person, why does the central monitoring system have no early warning? There is no personnel dispatched by the special regulatory authorities? The physical information of the evolutionary person is very special. When the physical condition changes, the basic cells and the surrounding environment will have a repulsive effect, and the demand for oxygen and energy will also increase sharply. It is difficult for ordinary people to detect this change, but professional equipment can lock the abnormal changes through air conduction. No one can change this situation, and there is no way to effectively hide the breath. If all you said is true, the special regulatory authorities must have noticed it at that time. However, they did not send relevant personnel from beginning to end to know that their needs for evolution are more urgent than anyone else."
Sibo did not comment on Yuan Zhicheng's words. He didn't know what the "special regulatory authorities" meant, and it was the first time he heard the name from Yuan Zhicheng. However, Sibo knew that there was a very mysterious organization within the military. There was not many staffing and never showed up in public. Their only task was to set off immediately when they discovered the aura of evolutionary people and brought the target back to the military headquarters.
After thinking for a few seconds, Sibo said uncertainly: "Maybe, Su Hao has mastered some method of hiding his breath?"
“Impossible.”
Yuan Zhicheng shook his head: "If he really had a similar method, he would definitely not have used it now. Su Hao has been at a disadvantage in the military struggle. If he had long had the strength of an evolved man, he would not have racked his brains to deal with Sun Zhan. Moreover, two years ago, in the abandoned city of Chengdu, there was an evolutionist named "Yue Zhennan". After the intelligence department reviewed his identity and relationship, it believed that Yue Zhennan might have some connection with Su Hao. Perhaps it was the lurking person arranged by Su Hao among the refugees. The value of an evolutionist is no less than a group of troops. Do you think Su Hao may give up the power he has obtained in vain?"
Sibo thought for a moment and said, "Maybe, this matter has something to do with the Academy of Sciences?"
Yuan Zhicheng looked at the screen with a muddy look and said with pity: "You always like to think about things in bad directions, and you always like to connect various problems with Wang Qinian. I understand your feelings. The painful experiences in childhood will indeed become indelible memories. However, your inference this time is obviously wrong."
Sibo couldn't help but blurt out: "Why?"
"Because evolving people cannot exist in this world. Even if Wang Qinian really has a way to hide the evolutionary aura, he must consider whether it is worth it."
Yuan Zhicheng sighed: "You don't understand. Although Wang Qinian is abominable, he is actually on the side of us in the general direction. If Su Hao really becomes an evolutionist, the Academy of Sciences will never help him, but will turn against him."
Sibo asked in surprise: "Why?"
Yuan Zhicheng did not continue to answer. He was silent for a moment and said, "How is your current situation? How much remaining combat power is left?"
Sibo didn't understand what Yuan Zhicheng wanted to suddenly change the topic? But he understood that continuing to ask questions at this time would only anger the other party. The wisest way is to answer whatever you ask.
"The losses of soldiers and equipment are not large. However, all the "slaves" troops on standby in the area have been killed in battle.
Speaking of this, Sibo's eyes were a little dim: "Su Hao showed extremely strong strength, his alertness and reaction ability were very sharp. Although high-energy lasers can cause damage to him, similar opportunities may never appear again. Perhaps it is the further expansion of perception range, or the most potentially dangerous intuition, he is always moving his position and cannot be locked. Now, we have lost the monitoring target."
Yuan Zhicheng's expression was cold and serious. He looked at Sibo and asked, "Do you have any good suggestions for this?"
After thinking for a long time, Sibo gritted his teeth and said, "I suggest that it is best not to fight Su Hao directly and order all troops going to attack the new Guiyang base city to retreat immediately. In addition, find and win over people who are close to Su Hao, such as the President of Science Wang Qinian. Through their relationship, reach an understanding with Su Hao as soon as possible."
This is not a disagreement, but Sibo's true thoughts.
Su Hao is already different from the past. Since he is strong and cannot fight, he can only change his attitude and make friends with him. Otherwise, the next target to become Su Hao's attack is likely to be the Yuan family.
As for Sibo himself... some things cannot be changed. I will never combine them into one by advice to others and my true attitude towards things.
Beijing No. 1 Base, Central Operations Command.
Zhao Zhikai stood in front of the huge electronic sand table, spread his hands to the edge of the table, and stared at the electronic simulation scene with his careful and cold eyes.
In order to achieve the best combat effect, twenty-six divisions were drawn from the eastern front. Yuan Zhicheng also showed extremely high efficiency in this matter. Twenty divisions from the northern war zone arrived at the designated location as scheduled. They were not just militia and reserve recruits who casually pulled out the number of militias and reserve recruits, but real elite troops
The inexplicable vehicle mechanical failure and the illness of the personnel completely disrupted the plan.
No one expected that this would happen.
In the history of wars from ancient times to the present, non-combat attributable to local conditions and diseases have always been one of the important factors that cause failure. This situation has been comprehensively improved with the advancement of science and technology and the evolution of human civilization history. However, the problem is that hundreds of thousands of troops besieged the new Guiyang base were actually troubled by this inexplicable and epilepsy-like disease, which made it difficult to move forward.
Before deciding to launch a full round-up and attack on Su Hao, Zhao Zhikai never dreamed that this would happen.
He knew that Su Hao was very strong. The guy who suddenly rose up and was more dazzling than the big stars in peacetime was behind Wang Qinian and the entire Academy of Sciences as support. But so what? Su Hao was just one person after all. Although he had a complete logistics base and a full army, he could not fight against the entire military headquarters.
A total of 46 divisions of combat troops were only the first batch of the entire annihilation plan. In order to make the plan more complete and avoid shortcomings, he mobilized fifteen elite divisions with strong combat power from the eastern front line. These troops were gradually replacing from the existing positions and retreating to the second-line base for rest. The vacant positions were taken over by thirty newly reorganized recruit divisions. There is no doubt that the casualty rate of the recruit division must be very high, but compared with the complete elimination of Su Hao and the regaining control of the 505th Army, temporary sacrifices and efforts are worth it.
A middle-aged staff member in his thirties walked up to Zhao Zhikai and reported very respectfully: "Your Excellency, the second report on blood sample analysis by the Military Research Center has come out."
"Ignore" Zhao Zhikai ordered lightly, his eyes never shifted away from the electronic simulation map.
"This is a virus that has never been discovered. It penetrates the pores of the epidermis and enters the blood vessels and fluid circulation system, causing neuronal spasms and dysfunctional blockage in a short period of time, thereby causing systemic discomfort symptoms. According to analysis, the virus has the ability to split rapidly and replicate itself in a short period of time. Its life cycle is extremely short, but the division speed after invading the human body is extremely fast. At this time, the biggest cause of epilepsy symptoms caused by infected people is also..."
"Enough"
Zhao Zhikai frowned and interrupted the staff officer with dissatisfaction. His face quickly became gloomy and his tone became colder: "Tell me the key points directly. What is the corresponding method of the research center? Is there any medicine that can be used for restraint?"
The middle-aged staff member had obviously remembered the content of the report. He closed the folder in his hand and shook his head hesitantly: "No."
"Since there isn't, why do you do so many reports? The first, second, and then there will be third, fourth... This kind of report has no value. The content is just a repetition of the conclusions of the last research. Take a look at these sentences and look at them carefully. Just a few words are just a replica of the previous report. Change a few words and add a little insignificant change, and it becomes the so-called "second research report". What exactly do those people in the research center have to do? Do they think that the military headquarters is spending money to support them for free?"
The staff officer wanted to say something to comfort him, but he wanted to speak but stopped.
Zhao Zhikai's anger is not groundless. This report is really not very different from the content of the last time, and the key words are almost unchanged. The difference is that "cell" becomes "virus", "90% concurrency rate" becomes "92% concurrency rate", etc.
The front-line troops have been unable to advance, and the military has repeatedly put pressure on the research center to take countermeasures as soon as possible. The time given is too short, so the research center naturally cannot come up with any powerful solutions. However, the pressure from the military committee is so heavy that they can only repeatedly argue, and even researchers shirking responsibility for each other.
This bureaucratic style originated from peacetime and was criticized by countless people. Of course, this is one of the reasons why Wang Qinian stuck to the gate of the Academy of Sciences and never allowed any military research center personnel to enter. This also led to the military's inability to confront the Academy of Sciences in scientific research and was far from disadvantaged.
Submitting reports in layers based on time and research stage has become a habit of authoritative people in the research center. Many people disagree with the orders of the military headquarters and think that it is just a bluff. However, this time is completely different from the past, and someone must pay the price for it.
