Mingte City·West Gate
Intense artillery fire and light rang in this seemingly wide city wall.
For ordinary individuals or caravans, this city wall is indeed very wide, but for a mechanized unit, this city wall is so narrow that they have no chance to stretch their movements and are drowned by artillery fire from the city wall.
This small city gate, which no one paid much attention to in the past, now showed powerful firepower.
Missiles and artillery fire poured down from the city wall as if they were free.
Not only poured into the city wall, but also poured into the army that stayed outside the city near the city wall.
Because the city gate was opened and the confidence in mastering the overall situation, the commander who controlled this "siege" army let this army get too close to the city gate.
Although this allowed them to seize the opportunity and enter the city at the fastest speed, it also made them live targets for the artillery on the city wall. When the war started, they had no space to dodge and hide.
"These guys blocked all the surrounding signals."
Under the cover of the special forces wearing exoskeletons beside him, Smoot glanced at the intercom in his hand that was making a rustling noise, his face gloomy.
Some powerful interference system is running in this city wall, blocking all wireless signals.
It prevents the news from being transmitted from the city wall, and prevents the news from being transmitted from the outside.
The purpose of opening the city gate on the opposite side is to trick him into the city wall and cut off his connection with the army outside.
Although the Note Intelligence Mercenary Corps is a qualified modern army with a complete command system, even if he loses contact, the staff will take over the command and try to break the outer city gate to rescue him.
But the problem is that at this moment, it is not only the Note Intelligence Mercenary Corps that is outside.
Among them, there are also half of the people who came to "support" from Wester Steel.
And this half of the people are the worst quality people, not the elite of Wester Steel Mercenary Corps.
These people can fight in favorable situations and gather strength, but once they encounter such unfavorable situations, they will easily collapse, and then cause chaos and attack the camp of Note Intelligence.
Smoot raised his head, looking through the layers of firelight, looking at the outer city gate that had not been completely closed.
Vaguely, he could see the raging flames outside the city, the chaotic armored vehicles and the somewhat confused soldiers.
The worst situation still happened.
West Steel's "friendly forces" are attacking the army formation of Note Intelligence, affecting the actions of the Note Intelligence Mercenary Group.
Although the mercenary group outside the city is also trying to force the siege and hinder the progress of the closure of the city gate, it is still much less efficient than he expected.
West Steel, this group of idiots with eyes on the top of their foreheads who can only cause trouble...
If they had sent some elites to control their own army, or even distributed some siege equipment to speed up the siege, the situation would not have come to this point.
Cursing the people of Wester Steel in his heart, Smoot looked at the flames in the distance and took a deep breath.
According to the current situation, the mercenary group outside had no way to break through the outer city gate under the fierce artillery fire on the city wall.
Once the city gate was completely closed, he would be trapped.
Even if he was a B-level, he could not use his flesh and blood to resist the endless missiles and artillery fire.
Now he had only one choice.
Abandon the mechanical troops in the city, let them cover himself, so that he could escape before the city gate closed, reorganize the army, and force the siege.
The equipment and number advantages were still on their side.
He raised his head, glanced at the guards around him in the sound of heavy artillery fire, and shouted, "Light language, assemble the cover formation, cover me to the outer city gate."
"Yes!"
The guard officer next to him responded loudly.
He activated the exoskeleton armor on his body, and rays of light began to flash on him. At the same time, the exoskeleton armor of the guards around him also began to flash synchronously.
‘Light language’ is a common alternative communication method used by the Federal Mercenary Corps. To put it bluntly, it is encrypted communication encoded with the flashing frequency of lights.
As long as the receiver sees the flashing light, he can decode the flashing frequency through special equipment.
When the wireless signal is interfered, this ‘light language’ can play the role of short-distance alternative communication.
At the same time, under the same encryption system, almost all light language receiving devices have the function of ‘forwarding’. After ‘receiving’ the ‘light language’, they will ‘forward’ the light language through the light-emitting devices on their bodies in order to obtain greater diffusion.
Of course, in actual operation, this encrypted language will be affected by the terrain and battlefield, and will be blocked by light-shielding objects.
At the same time, if the light of the exploding artillery fire is mixed into the light language, it may also affect the decoding of the receiving device and cause translation errors.
However, when conveying simple instructions over a short distance, this ‘light language’ is a good substitute for wireless signals.
Almost within a short time after the guards sent the signal, the armored equipment in the entire city began to flash synchronously.
At the same time, more and more armored vehicles gathered towards Smoot's location and began to cover Smoot, blocking the artillery shells and missiles in the sky for him.
Smoot's movements did not stop. As early as when the signal was sent, he reached out and took the brand new exoskeleton armor handed over by the guard next to him. He quickly started it and headed towards the outer city gate that had not yet been closed as quickly as possible. rushed in the direction.
——
In the West City Command Center, which was shining with various lights, Ovi was watching the situation outside the city gate through the monitoring screens.
"General,"
The young officer walked over quickly, holding a tablet in his hand, and said quickly, "The mechanized troops in the barbican city have assembled and are gathering around Smoot to cover his direction to the outer city gate."
He paused and said with some confusion, "However, under such fierce artillery fire, they can actually organize an organized and large-scale operation?"
"Smoot is not a fool. The people he leads are all elites with note intelligence,"
Ovi shook his head, "The Note Smart Mercenary Group has encountered various situations in the wilderness over the years, and their fighting qualities are much better than those of us who have been staying on the city wall and living a peaceful life."
He reached out to take the tablet and looked at the real-time broadcast on the tablet.
At this moment, Smoot became the 'focus' of all the artillery fire. The dense artillery fire was gathering at this moment and pouring in his direction.
And those armored vehicles of the mechanized troops were standing in front of Smoot without fear of death, blocking artillery fire for him, and even launched a counterattack at the muzzle of the city wall.
"It seems that Smoot is giving up on this unit. As a powerful transcendent, he can escape, but these armored vehicles and soldiers cannot withstand this level of artillery fire."
Ovi sighed softly, "How much time, money, and energy would he have to spend to cultivate such an elite force? This guy just gave up. He is a cruel person."
"General, look at their speed, they will reach the outer city gate very soon,"
The young officer on the side said worriedly, "Will Smoot really be able to escape successfully?"
"Let the city gate control center overclock the city gate driver to speed up the closing of the city gate. It will be no problem to overclock that thing within a minute or two,"
Ovi raised his gaze, looked at the surveillance cameras outside the city, and continued, "Let the artillery fire from the Wengcheng side gather and attack Smoot. Don't think about the armored units on the periphery for the time being. If you can't predict the action, you can't aim. , just leave it to the system’s automatic aiming.”
He glanced at the console in front of him and said, "The algorithm of the system 'upgraded' by Sauter is very strong, better than most of our soldiers. Injuring Smoot can greatly hinder his progress.
"Inform the mecha troops and ask them to prepare to enter the Wengcheng and stop Smoot at the last moment."
"yes!"
The young officer immediately saluted, then he hesitated and asked slowly, "General, the pedestrian passage connecting our Wengcheng to the city has not been blocked yet. Although the gates have been closed, those few gates may not be able to stop Class B. Smoot,"
He paused for a moment, "If he fails to advance, will he retreat and try to enter the city again?"
"He won't,"
Ovi shook his head, "In that case, although we couldn't catch him, he also completely lost the opportunity to control the army outside the city, and all his plans would be ruined."
Having said this, he paused for a moment and thought, "But just in case, I remember that there is a huge alloy plate prepared in the warehouse to prevent powerful alien beasts from attacking the pedestrian passage, right? Take it out and block it from the city." Live on pedestrian access.”
"yes!"
The young officer saluted again.
"Is there any news from Beicheng?"
At this time, Ovi seemed to remember something and asked in a low voice.
"Message just sent,"
The officer whispered, "Mr. Sauter is leading the team out of the city."
"Okay, I get it."
Ovi nodded slightly and stared at the screens showing the battle situation outside.
The officer did not leave immediately. He followed Ove's gaze and looked at the screens. He hesitated and asked in a low voice, "General, can we really succeed?"
"All our ammunition, our best troops, are here,"
Ovi watched the artillery fire on the screen, and the small vibrations from the explosion outside the city also reached their feet.
“Even if Smoot really escapes, even if all our previous plans fail, even if Beicheng falls, we will still continue to fight.
"In this war, there is no success or failure. We have no retreat and no other choice."
The flames flickering on the screen reflected on the man's cheek, "We are guarding not only this high wall and city gate, but also this city and the people who make up this city."
The young officer was stunned for a moment, then he stood up straight, performed a military salute, and said loudly, "Yes!"
"Go ahead."
Ovi lowered his head and stared at the scene on the screen.
The young officer saluted slightly, turned and walked away.
Ovi stared at the flames on the screen, the war machines spitting out flames.
His blurry shadow was also reflected on the outer glass of the screens.
He stared at the gunfire and reflection, as if mocking himself, but also feeling emotional, shaking his head,
"It seems that it is not that easy to leave a name in history."
He raised his hand, pressed a button on the console, and said quickly, "Prepare a mecha for me. I will go out to fight later."

Inside the west gate
The iron barricades placed in a tight manner blocked the defenses around the gate. The soldiers of the city defense army stationed at the gate held their guns in their hands and stared at the street outside vigilantly.
The dense gun barrels filled the doorway behind them, and the roar of artillery fire seemed to have passed the high wall and sounded one after another behind them.
At this moment, the sentry at the front seemed to hear some kind of sound, raised his head and looked at the street ahead.
A red light suddenly rushed out from the depths of the street.
The light seemed to have been observing in the darkness for a long time, and never stopped. Before the sentry could react, it directly hit the gun barrels that filled the doorway.
At the place where he hit, the fake gun barrel was easily torn apart by him.
There was a dense sound of gunfire behind him, but the light did not fight with the soldiers outside at all.
His speed was so fast that he walked dozens of meters away in an instant and got rid of the aiming of the soldiers behind him.
His figure quickly shuttled through the doorway. He did not look for the closed door, but appeared in front of the pedestrian passage.
"Who is there?"
The sound of large-scale handling machinery running and the soldiers' puzzled greetings came from the depths of the doorway.
The figure did not turn back when he heard the sound, but looked at the closed passage door, stretched out his hand and pulled hard, directly tore open the solid alloy door, and broke into the passage.
Behind him, several heavy armored vehicles carrying a thick alloy plate slowly walked out from the other side, looking at the torn door blankly.
——
Ximen Wengcheng
The roaring artillery fire was like dense raindrops, ringing in everyone's ears.
One by one, the solid armored vehicles were blown to pieces by the artillery fire, and ignited into a blazing flame in this closed space.
Smoot's figure quickly rushed through the gaps between the armor and the remains of the cannon fodder, hiding his figure.
The guards beside him had been reduced by nearly two-thirds, and there were few armored vehicles protecting him around.
He had some blood and scars on his body, and his exoskeleton armor was also shattered, which was caused by the concentrated fire from the city wall.
Even though he was so careful, some of the dense artillery fire still fell on him.
His face was indifferent, even though the soldiers who had been following him were killed or injured, but there was still no fluctuation on his face.
The outer city gate in front was about to be completely closed. Indistinctly, he seemed to hear some violent sounds coming from the direction of the inner city gate behind him, as if someone was tearing the alloy.
But he had no time to look back. He quickly quickened his pace and rushed to the gate that was about to close.
At this time, he regretted that he had not collected any extraordinary items that could speed up before.
Although these extraordinary items that can realize powerful special abilities are more or less contaminated, it is better than him struggling on the line between life and death now.
Boom——
The roaring explosion rang in his ears, and an armored vehicle was pierced next to him and burned into a raging flame.
The guards beside him fell behind him one by one. He did not look back. He stared ahead, with only the rapidly closing city gate in his sight.
