"The entire army retreats!"
Commander Gaoqiang Dongda gave the order for the entire army to retreat, and the remaining soldiers on the battlefield received the order and took action one after another.
In fact, a large part of the soldiers are filled with confusion. They don't know the meaning of retreating now. Although an assault would be tantamount to death, where could one retreat to? Let the Dragon King of the Desert lead the desert army to conquer the border, knock down the high walls of the Dawn Base, then flatten the outside of the base, and massacre everyone on the surface and in Didong City
"Wu Qi, do you have the order from the head to let them retreat?" After Guo Baibo heard the commander's voice on the combat command channel in the carriage, he relayed the order to Wu Qi through mental transmission.
Wu Qi was still standing in the wasteland. He carried Chris and ran quickly back to the armed battlefield vehicle. Guo Bobo opened the door and stretched out his legs first to take the injured Chris in.
One of Wu Qi's feet was on the steps of the car, but the other was still not in the car. He glanced back at the approaching desert army from the northwest, a storm of emotion brewing deep in his pupils.
This is not a war, not a war in which he alone can decide the outcome. The war has been going on so far, and the Dawn Army has made a lot of sacrifices, but it is obvious that they have lost.
Once the remaining Dawn Army retreats, the Desert Dragon King can walk to the high wall without any hindrance. It is 40 meters higher than the wall, and can overturn most of the industrial facilities in the Dawn Base with a powerful attack from the Dragon Horn. If the base's massive defensive force field was effective against the Desert Dragon King's strongest attack, why did the high-walled heavy artillery array suppress its actions for so long.
If you say you don't want to retreat, you actually want them to escape in an organized manner and not just scatter like birds and beasts. At least their soldiers and the military vehicles used to fight Sundong exist in the world, which is better than annihilation.
Wu Qi was in the armed field vehicle, which rumbled into action, and together with the troops on the left, they withdrew to the long gate opened at the bottom of the high wall. After all the military vehicles and soldiers on the left returned, the long gate on the wall landed with a sound.
The remaining troops in the middle had little chance of escaping. They were in a position where there was almost no hope of evacuation. The commander of the high wall obviously planned to abandon them.
Even though field commander Ye Zheng was trapped in an overturned armed heavy field vehicle behind enemy lines, there was nothing he could do.
The long door on the wall fell to the east. The second order from Commander Gaoqiang came from the combat command channel outside the tanks.
"All soldiers, we must preserve the effective forces from the east after the battle at Dawn Base. Now he asks me to give me Dongda's mission order - to escort the residents of Didong City to escape from the southeast gate of Dawn Base. When the fleeing troops are far away from Dawn Base, After losing sight of the Desert Legion, we will take a detour and head towards Noah Base. Please do your best as soldiers to escort as many people as possible to Noah Base safely."
All the soldiers heard the commander's words clearly. Some of their eyes were stunned and they couldn't believe it; some of them had expected it and their eyes were dead.
"That's it." Wu Qi let out a long breath. The answer in his heart was finally confirmed.
Dawn Base had determined the outcome of a crushing defeat before retreating. If their soldiers were to withdraw, they would not be able to exert their value as defeated soldiers, and that value would not be able to escort the residents of Didong City.
"Commander, there are so many residents in Didong City, how can they escort them?" A team leader made a mistake with the commander directly on the combat command channel. His voice sounded familiar to Yue Zhanfei, Guo Baibo and others. When Yue Zhanfei talked about the battle plan before, the team leader also responded.
The commander quickly replied: "All the heavy-duty field vehicles in stock at Dawn Base have arrived at the southeast gate of the base. That matter was hidden from us before, but it was actually done before we sent out troops. Heavy-duty field vehicles and portable The amount of supplies and water is limited, so some of the residents of Didong City can indeed stay in the car, and the rest have to hide in Didong City."
"That... ... "
"I don't want to ask how the escape list of Didong City residents was selected. If it is confidential, it cannot be disclosed to us." The commander said firmly.
The soldier squad leader shut up. When asked about Dongfang again, no matter what the commander told him, the soldiers present wanted to be tortured more in conscience and emotion, which would definitely not be conducive to Dongfang's escape operation.
"The targets we want to escort are all in the car. We can set off when we reach the southeast gate. I wish everyone a safe journey. After leaving Dawn Base, another officer from the Survey Corps headquarters will take over his command."
After speaking, Commander Gaoqiang cut off the connection with the combat command channel, and the soldiers could hear rustling sounds in the carriage.
"Look, the delay is not irresponsible of the residents of Dongcheng, the place where they asked for escort." "Yue Zhanfei stood up and took the lead in saying leave in the quiet combat command channel.
Yue Zhanfei started, and all the tanks turned around and lined up in two rows on the road leading to the southeast corner of the base.
The high wall in the northwest is getting farther and farther away from them.
At the observation command post on top of the high wall, the commander pressed the button that cut off the communication channel with one leg. He maintained that action for several seconds.
Outside the glass window was the endless dim night. The lights in the observation command post were extremely weak compared to the endless night, as if they would be swallowed up by the night in one bite.
There, you can directly see the wasteland in the distance without a lookout glass. You can see the Desert Dragon King, who is more ambitious than the lookout command post, leading the dark desert army to launch a full-scale assault.
The Desert Dragon King is covered in gold. In that state, it cannot use dragon horns to focus, so the firepower of the heavy artillery array completely covers the black Desert Legion Plague Plant at the feet of the Desert Dragon King. They could see explosive clouds rising from the ground at every moment. Each explosive cloud symbolized a certain number of enemies being shattered into pieces and turned into charcoal.
"Are we afraid?" the commander asked suddenly. He asked other soldiers in the lookout command post and the patrol soldiers who continued to stand at the heavy artillery array control center.
No one answered, and the commander continued to talk: "Are you afraid? Are you afraid? It doesn't matter. In any case, they need to carry out their mission and maintain the defense of Dawn Base in the first few seconds before the end of the war. The system adds vitality to the people hiding in Didong City. The soldiers who went to escort some of the residents of Didong City also failed to carry out their mission as soldiers, and then without hesitation embarked on a path that was no less desperate than them."
"Soldiers, he does not ask us to shout or roar, please continue to fight silently. At the beginning, they can let many enemies hear the same requiem as them."
The commander spoke out the words that had been brewing in his chest for a long time. At that moment, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught sight of a ray of light shining like a bright lamp at the end of the wilderness to the north.
