Chapter 216 Is Long Zhan going to use nuclear weapons again?
The group quickly moved to the dug trench. Long Zhan looked at Lin Mo.
"Lin Mo, you should leave first, it's too dangerous here!"
Lin Mo asked, puzzled:
"What do you mean? You're in command too, aren't you coming along?"
"The command vehicle is gone, so I need to stay behind to better direct operations based on the situation on the ground!" Long Zhan said in a deep voice, then looked at the centaur Grom.
"Lord Grom, please take Lin Mo away from here to a safe place!"
After he finished speaking, he turned to Kyle, Elder Woodwhisper, and Thorin.
"The three of you, you should also leave this place. This battle has nothing to do with you."
"Protect Lin Mo at all costs. You should understand his importance. As long as he's alive, Great Xia can still establish a teleportation portal and trade with you!"
If this battle is lost, it would be best if the main base in Yingye Town could survive, but if it is also captured by the demons, Lin Mo is the only chance.
As long as Lin Mo is alive, everything can start over.
Long Zhan's words gave Lin Mo a bad feeling. Was he foreshadowing something to come?
He couldn't help but recall the last time the portal opened, and how Dragon War dealt with the immense pressure from Volaz.
At this moment, the expeditionary force was entangled with an invincible enemy, and even two seventh-tier soldiers were no match for them.
And facing a desperate situation where hundreds of thousands of demons, including many sixth-tier demons, are besieging them...
That leaves only one solution!
After figuring it out, Lin Mo rushed to Long Zhan, his body trembling with excitement.
"No! Long Zhan, you can't do that!"
"We're too close! If we use that thing here, everyone will die!"
"There must be another way! There must be!"
Long Zhan stared at Lin Mo, then shook his head.
"Don't worry, I won't use it unless absolutely necessary. I'm just doing it as a precaution."
"You're important, get out of here!"
Lin Mo's mind raced, quickly searching for other solutions, muttering to himself:
"Wait, I have sixth-tier combat power, I can contribute too..."
If there were any other way, he would not want those 27,000 soldiers to die in a foreign land.
Long Zhan then took out a black briefcase, which, when opened, resembled a notebook.
There's an electronic screen above, which is currently displaying the user interface.
The keyboard area is a row of number keys, from 0 to 9.
There are also a few gray, red, and white buttons.
It was a nuclear weapons activation box!
Because of the expedition to another world, the cumbersome verification and activation methods have been eliminated. All that is needed is for the Dragon Warrior and the Dongfeng Launcher to verify the password.
Long Zhan looked up at Zhao Gang beside him.
"Zhao Gang, take him away!"
As a soldier, Zhao Gang was even more decisive.
At the same time, Zhao Gang's military rank was not as high as Long Zhan's, the military region commander. Although they were both deputy commanders of the expeditionary force, in battle, Zhao Gang had to listen to Long Zhan, who was more professional.
He immediately obeyed the order, grabbed Lin Mo's arm, and advised:
"Let's go, you have to trust his tactical judgment."
Lin Mo remained silent, only able to glance resentfully at the three dazzling afterimages of the battle raging in the sky before turning and leaving.
Kyle, Elder Muyu, and others, along with more than a dozen clansmen, followed suit.
A group of several dozen people rode away quickly on various trembling flying mounts.
Long Zhan glanced at Lin Mo's departing figure, silently entered the password on the briefcase, and was ready to activate the nuclear weapon at any moment.
He looked up at the distant sky, his eyes calm, without a trace of fear of death.
Once the two seventh-tier orcs are defeated, they can only drag each other down with them.
Otherwise, ordering a withdrawal would only result in the enemy gradually consuming and destroying the troops.
It's better to go all out, clear the obstacles for Lin Mo and Da Xia, and take over the fiefdom.
At this moment, he seemed to remember something, and looked at the soldier beside him who was rebuilding the command system using a combat computer, saying:
"Were those two seventh-tier orcs wearing our translation headsets?"
Soldier: "We'll investigate right away!"
He quickly made the contact, and a dozen seconds later...
"Found it, there's a headset!"
Long Zhan's eyes flashed, and he gave the order:
"Connect them and tell them to take that demon leader and fight somewhere else, far away!"
"receive!"
As expected, with the order given, Warwick and Warcowyn consciously led Murphy away to fight in the distance, away from the airspace above the expeditionary force.
In this way, perhaps many members of the expeditionary force could survive.
At the same time, the soldiers faithfully carried out Long Zhan's order to unleash a full-scale attack to annihilate the ground demons.
The terrifying pressure emanating from Murphy made the soldiers feel a tightness in their chests and weakened their fighting spirit, but not one of them retreated.
"Damn it! What kind of freaks are these? They've all turned their guns on each other! If they can't kill those in the air, they'll take on the ones on the ground!"
"Come on, you son of a bitch demon!"
"Kill them!! Killing one is enough, killing two is a bonus!"
"Fortune favors the bold, let's take it!!"
The soldiers roared like beasts, using their fury to fight against the fear that originated from the level of life itself.
After the concentrated fire on Malphite, the demon army, now without firepower suppression, has advanced to our doorstep.
In the sky, dozens of armed helicopters had already turned around and unleashed rockets and machine gun bullets at the demonic flying forces.
On the ground, the machine guns of the infantry fighting vehicles spun wildly, while the rocket launcher units behind them slowly rose again, aiming at the dark mass of demons.
Countless individual drones and quadrupedal robotic dogs were released from the positions and joined the steel torrent of counterattack.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A steel defensive line composed of hundreds of main battle tanks unleashed a deafening salvo.
The black soil, mixed with fragments of demon flesh and blood, was lifted dozens of meters into the air by the blast wave, then turned into a crimson rainstorm that fell down.
The earth was trembling violently.
However, the charging demon army was like an endless black tide; as those in front fell, those behind immediately trampled over the corpses of their own kind and continued to surge forward, fearless of death.
Inside an infantry fighting vehicle recently assigned to the orcs, the cat-eared machine gunner screamed as she watched the distorted face getting closer and closer through the scope.
"Fire! Fire now, you idiot!"
The werewolf gunner beside her already had bloodshot eyes, his foot firmly planted on the firing pedal.
"Da da da da da da—!"
The vehicle-mounted heavy machine gun spewed out scorching flames, and the thick cubic nitrogen bullets tore several inferior demons that rushed forward to pieces, their foul-smelling blood splattering all over the frontal armor of the tank.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!!!"
A new wave of long-range rocket artillery barrage has arrived.
A metallic storm of steel balls and high-speed fragments swept through the middle and rear of the demon army.
"BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!"
The orange-red thermobaric fireballs exploded in the densest part of the demon army, clearing out a large area in an instant.
But the fighting on the front lines remained fierce.
Two sixth-tier demon commanders, each over three meters tall, mingled among the demon army and had quietly breached the first line of defense sometime earlier...
