In the middle of the slums of Area D and Itsukushima Base, there is a hidden river valley where the five machines [Caesar], [Ryan], [Lebra], [Sakitaris] and [Caprico] are hidden.
Among the dense woods, nervously overlooking the river below,
"Your Highness Lelouch, will the enemy really pass through here?" Gino asked.
"Yes." Lelouch explained to the five people through the remote communication channel, "I carefully studied the route from Area D to Itsukushima Base. Unless I imitate the [Nightmare] Knights and quietly cross the mountains, there are only three major roads.
And this river, this river is very secretive. The current is usually very fast and it is impossible to go against the current. Only in the past month or two the water will recede. It is not only gentle but also very shallow, enough for Knightmare to pass."
"Based on the distance between this river, the army cannot pass through. The army can only take three main roads, but if you take the main road, you will definitely be discovered by friendly forces. Therefore, either no one comes to this river, or it is an elite Rangers." Mo.
Nika added in due course.
"Why not consider the enemy's Rangers to learn from their predecessors in crossing mountains and ridges?" Audrin asked doubtfully.
"That's impossible." Monica retorted to Audrey before anyone else, her excited tone and demeanor revealed her secret of being a Yang Hui fan, "The reason why the [Nightmare] Knights are the strongest knights in the world
The reason why we are a group is because we can do things that others cannot do! Every member of the [Nightmare] Knights is an elite carefully selected by His Highness, and has undergone rigorous training under the leadership of His Highness, [ELEVEN]
If the resistance organization could achieve the feat of the [Nightmare] Knights, they wouldn’t have suffered such a defeat a few years ago!”
"Uh... okay, you're right."
Gino and others are ashamed. Although Monica is right, isn't this kind of fanatical fan supporting their idol not suitable for the current environment?
"Monica is half right. The enemy's Rangers can indeed imitate the feats of the [Nightmare] Knights back then, and cross mountains and ridges to carry out a strong attack. However, they cannot complete the feats of [Nightmare]. Even if they cross mountains and ridges to approach Yan
The island base cannot be as fast as [Nightmare]." Lelouch breathed a sigh of relief, resisted the idea of complaining about Monica, and said to the five people, "The actions of the resistance organization want to achieve huge results.
The result is the word 'fast'. Once it is slow, they will not be able to compete with the army, so they will not be able to choose to cross the mountains."
Everyone nodded in agreement. Through constant contact, Gino and the others found that Lelouch was not that difficult to contact. We could see many shadows of Yang Hui in Lelouch, especially when they regarded each other as equal companions, they were more able to
I found that, for example, when Lelouch was free, he would take the initiative to analyze the current battle situation for them, discuss Knightmare's team tactics with them, and even ask for Knightmare's driving skills, etc.
This also allowed them to recognize Lelouch and truly regard him as a member of their companions, rather than a superior prince.
At this moment, the birds in the mountains were frightened, and roaring sounds of varying distances were heard from all around.
"Your Highness Lelouch, there are sounds of fighting in the distance, and friendly forces on the road have joined forces with the enemy." Ophis immediately reported the situation to Lelouch.
"Well, it's almost time. Get everything ready. The river rangers should not be far away."
"Yes, your highness."X5
They each checked whether the concealment was intact, then turned off the engine of the machine body, waiting for the arrival of the enemy. After a while, the sound of mechanical operation gradually approached along with the sound of "squeaking" water, and the radar system of [Sakitalis]
Red dots keep appearing on it.
"The enemy was discovered, compared with the database, and determined to be an improved version of the fifth-generation Knightmare Sunderland, numbering 60. A large number of amphibious armored vehicles were found behind the Knightmare troops," Audrin reported.
"It's really a big deal, Ophis, are the explosives you made okay?" Gino asked pretending to be nervous.
"No problem, don't forget that I have always been number one in physics."
"Ahaha, you were just joking." Gino said awkwardly. He was just joking to ease the tense atmosphere. Unexpectedly, Ophis answered him seriously.
"Okay Gino, be serious, this is our first battle." Monica reminded Gino.
"Of course I know, that's why I'm nervous." Gino shook the operating lever hard. His joke was not only to relieve the tension of his companions, but also his own.
"There is a huge disparity in military strength, but the combat power..."
"The disparity is huge. We are far better than each other." X5
Before Lelouch could finish speaking, the five people directly said the second half of the sentence for him, which was confidence, determination, and determination.
"Yes, our combat power is far superior to the enemy's, because we are..."
"[Nightmare]!" X5
"In the name of Bunitalia... no, in the name of your commander Lelouch, I give the order to detonate the bomb after the first enemy soldier passes coordinate D10, and annihilate all the enemy troops!"
"Yes, your highness."X5
Because the river is narrow, the Knightmare of the Sakura Liberation Front and the amphibious armored vehicle troops at the rear turned into a long dragon and quickly advanced in the river. They just moved forward and moved forward, completely ignoring the "Nightmare" lurking on both sides and the deadly threats hidden on both sides.
Underfoot.
"It's now!"
When the first Knightmare in the lead broke through the cordon, Orpheus activated the explosive device.
"Boom boom boom boom..."
As the dazzling light pierced the water surface, a violent explosion exploded at the feet of the long dragon. The long dragon was instantly bathed in the firelight and shattered into pieces.
"[Sakitalis], name the vanguard survivors." Looking at the red light spots that luckily remained in the explosion, Lelouch gave a cold order.
"Yes, your highness."
The dark gun muzzle burst into flames, and the bullets shot out from the barrel, piercing a Knightmare that stood up in a panic. A big hole was opened in the cockpit, leaving only some stumps and blood of the pilot inside, and then he was destroyed by the fire.
engulf.
[Sagitalis] kept changing his gun's muzzle and fired one after another. The lucky man who survived the explosion was not caught by the goddess of luck a second time.
"[Ryan], [Caprico], cut in from the side and cut the enemy's center open."
"Yes, your highness." X2
[Ryan], who transformed into a lion form, jumped up from the woods, like a lion pounced on a herd of deer cubs, sweeping its claws, biting with fangs, tearing its prey into pieces.
[Caplico] Like a shadowy assassin, his erratic figure shuttles back and forth among the enemy troops. The sharp sword in his hand will pierce the chest through the back at some point. When he looks back, he has already disappeared.
, or bullets from unknown sources shattered the armor, sending a gift to the God of Death.
"Your Highness Lelouch, the enemy's rear troops are pressing forward." After destroying the front army and disrupting the middle army, Audrey saw that the enemy's rear army was beginning to accelerate and she immediately reported it.
"[Lian], [Caplico] retreat, [Lebra], it's your turn to take action."
"Yes, your highness." X3
The lion and the assassin gave up the target and prey in front of them and retreated into the woods again.
The Rangers of the Sakura Liberation Front were overjoyed to see this. Reinforcements had arrived, but Bunitalia's special machine could only flee in panic in front of them. Their morale was boosted, and they were ready to attack the Itsukushima base in one go and regain the dawn of the past.
But... it is a flash in the pan after all. At the end of life, you give the best hope, and then... you crush it ruthlessly!
"Boom boom boom boom..."
Countless cannonballs fell from the sky and exploded violently. The fireworks were not only extremely gorgeous, but also filled with the smell of death.
"Mission accomplished." Ania exited the cockpit expressionlessly, took a photo of her masterpiece, then nodded expressionlessly and sat back in the cockpit.
"So...Checkmate."
On the chessboard in Lelouch's mind, he holds the gray chess pieces and eats all the black chess pieces. The pawns, chariots, knights, bishops, and queens all surround the black king, with no way to retreat or escape.
As the last step was taken, Lelouch issued the final order: "[Caesar], [Ryan], and [Caplico] began to attack, and [Sakitalis] sniped and covered, hunting as many prey as possible.
Bar."
"Yes, your highness!"
…
What Lelouch, and the five Gino men who were fighting didn't know, was that on the mountainside in the distance, Jeremiah and Joan Law were watching the entire process with telescopes.
"As expected of His Highness Lelouch, and worthy of being chosen by His Highness Yang Hui." Jeremiah praised.
"Well, in this battle, they can achieve excellence." Qiong Luo commented fairly, "In terms of driving skills, they are enough to bear the title of the Twelve Zodiacs. What they lack is combat experience, but combat awareness
They are all excellent, the most important thing is..."
"...It's still His Highness Lelouch's battle plan and tactical command." Jeremiah added.
In this battle, there was a huge disparity in both military strength and combat power, and it was not the way Lelouch and the others were cheering, but neither side had the upper hand.
Yes, the driving skills of the five Gino men are indeed excellent, and their aircraft are among the best in the world, but this is not enough to support them in annihilating this Rangers. Without excellent combat plans and tactical command, no matter how strong they are, they can only have five.
Individual and Wutai Knightmare.
Maybe they could hold off the enemy for a while, maybe they could use sneak attacks to inflict heavy damage, but they definitely couldn't annihilate them.
But they did it, thanks to the battle plan formulated by Lelouch, which placed everyone in the most critical position and played the most critical role at the most critical time.
"It's just a pity that we don't have a chance to appear." Joan Luo regretted that she and Jeremiah were arranged to be the examiners of Lelouch and the five-person team, and they were also protectors, saving them in critical moments.
Now that the enemy forces have been wiped out, Lelouch and the others have completed the exam perfectly, and they have no chance to take action.
"It doesn't matter, we are not short of this record." Jeremiah patted Joan Luo's shoulder and comforted him. The veterans of [Nightmare] no longer pursue record. Their record is enough to return home and receive a medal.
, "And there are still a lot of prey waiting for us to hunt."
Seeing Jeremiah pointing in the direction behind them, which was the direction of a main road, and the sound of fighting had not stopped yet, Joan Luo regained some energy.
