When the time finally came to four o'clock in the afternoon on the 27th, the system finally issued a notice that the second phase of the Zhongzhou team's mission was successfully completed.
Some things worth mentioning happened at almost the same time and in different places.
For example:
First, after a few days, Garu Hellscream, the chief of the orc tribe, appeared again outside Immokalee Fortress two hours ago.
One is a very good but very hidden frontline headquarters.
This place is only five or six kilometers away from where Hu Biao and the others are.
So just now, Garu Hellscream not only saw Hu Biao, he was holding up the head of Captain Khan Tegwan and roaring with all his strength before being chased by a large number of orcs.
He also saw the unusual strength of humans like Hu Biao one by one.
It's just that the Khajiit leader never figured out why until his death. After Garu Hellscream saw it, he really didn't care at all.
It seemed that he had already figured it out, and there was no surprised expression on his face.
Finally, as the clock hand turned, the time reached four o'clock in the afternoon.
Garu Hellscream put down the arm carrying a watch, and finally spoke. He didn't use much force, but the sound resounded throughout the surrounding area.
It was extremely clear, and it fell on the ears of all the subordinates:
"All troops will launch an attack with all their strength as planned; I hope to have breakfast at Immokalee Fortress tomorrow morning. The warriors of the tribe will not let me down."
Under such an order, the orc captains, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately agreed with excitement, their faces full of excitement.
There doesn't seem to be anything to worry about about the upcoming battle.
Immediately, the captains of thousands rushed out of the headquarters one by one; then they led dozens of captains of thousands and a large number of centurions.
All in all, a total of fifty to sixty thousand elite orcs who had not participated in the battle suddenly came out from various hidden positions towards the fortress.
Compared with the already astonishing attack intensity before, it has increased by at least several times.
What's even more terrible is that even a few days ago, the human defenders had already used the orcs' tactic of digging tunnels from the ground to approach and then detonating a large amount of explosives to blow up Fortress No. 38.
After suffering a big loss, I have already taken certain precautions.
But they didn't know that the orc army had adopted some unscientific tactics, and they still fell into the trap.
At around 4:05 in the afternoon, two huge explosions suddenly sounded on the second line of defense. The two core defensive fortresses with electromagnetic guns were hit again.
Although they were not completely destroyed by explosives, they were blown into the sky just like Fortress No. 38.
However, in the huge explosion, the projectiles that had been continuously firing outside the position and posing a huge threat to the attacking orc troops also stopped firing.
Either the electromagnetic gun suffered some unknown malfunction during the huge vibration, or there was some problem with the power supply.
The strongest long-range defense method on the battlefield was suddenly reduced by 50%.
The large amount of artillery fire hidden by the orcs can finally open fire unscrupulously at such a time.
It was nothing in the modern world, but now it was considered a ferocious density of artillery fire, and bombardments continued on the defense line.
Of course, the 150mm caliber artillery shells had no effect on several core fortresses, but some secondary fortresses were destroyed in the blink of an eye.
Amidst the continuous explosions, it can be said that the situation on the human defenders' side suddenly became extremely bad.
After all, the orcs used almost all their elite troops in this attack.
After taking a quick look, there were powerful orcs rushing towards us like big animals everywhere.
The only strange thing is that the strongest personal guards under Chief Garu Hellscream have not been seen on the battlefield until now.
But at this point, the human defenders no longer had the intention to pay attention to this.
Because just the powerful strength and attack power displayed by these elite orc troops in front of them almost made them despair...
Secondly, this time is a big gift from the system. Three social members among the ten netizens were summoned. Their luck seems to be quite good.
Because the three of them ran wildly and managed to escape several kilometers away and arrived at the edge of the battlefield.
As long as you continue to move a few kilometers, you will be able to run into a wilderness with thick weeds, and your chance of survival will be greatly increased.
But at this moment, the system's message about the completion of the second phase of the mission suddenly rang in their heads without warning.
The three of them instinctively stopped in their tracks.
After looking at each other, they looked a little bit embarrassed.
The third child among them, after being stunned for a few seconds, suddenly slapped his thigh and yelled with some regret:
"What the hell! If I had known better, I wouldn't have run away.
I didn't expect that Hu Biao, who rushed to the street, and his grandsons were so powerful, that they could win and complete the mission even in such a bad situation.
It's better now, I guess I offended them to death."
He spoke appropriately, but there was a look of regret on this guy's face.
It's just that what he regrets is not because of the cowardly behavior of the three of him; it's just that at such a time, these guys thought of the security protection and food originally provided by the Zhongzhou team.
After hearing this, the socialite’s second child made a suggestion:
"How about we go back and admit our mistake to that stupid young commander Hu Biao. If we cut off his finger, we should be able to fool him.
As long as we become more powerful in the future, we will get back all the humiliation we suffered this time.
Brothers, let's make it clear, that girl called Da Bolian will be mine when the time comes; when I looked at her, I wanted to push her into the corner."
It's just that their boss had some different views on the current situation. After pondering for a while, he said:
"Don't be stupid, how can such a good thing happen?
Now is the second phase of the mission, and it is already so difficult. Who knows how many people will need to die in the third phase of the mission, and whether they can survive it.
So instead of going back, we three brothers should find a place to hide.
As long as this mission is over, can't you choose whether to participate in the next mission? I chose his grandma, and he won't come next time if he kills me. Isn't life difficult in the modern plane?
As for women, where can you find them as long as you have money in the modern plane?
I have been carrying the jewelry and diamonds we exchanged for potatoes with me a few days ago. If I go back to 'Shuiqiang' to sell them, I can get at least one or two hundred w."
After hearing such a sentence, the other two socialites nodded one after another, praising their eldest brother for indeed standing tall and seeing far.
Then the three of them prepared to continue running away from this damn battlefield.
It was just at such a time that they were horrified to find a group of one hundred people, riding a water war bear on their crotches, and a knight wearing a black cloak running towards them.
The cloaks on their bodies flew up one after another as the strong wind blew.
The armor with some exquisite heraldry underneath, as well as the head with a black metal mask, were displayed in front of the three of them on the spot.
The above shapes are naturally not what humans should look like.
When the three members of society knew that they had encountered the elite orc troops, they immediately turned around and ran away, trying to escape back to Hu Biao, a place that could bring them safety.
Unfortunately, they had only taken a few steps away when a terrifying whistling sound came from behind them, and at the same time, three thumb-thick arrows hit their backs directly.
The three members of society were nailed to the ground, leaving only a few feathers on their backs.
Like three ants being trampled to death, the group of weird-looking orcs couldn't even stop their footsteps, and they continued to move forward.
If you look down from a high altitude with God's perspective, you can find that there are at least thirty or fifty such teams.
After a series of attacks, they all hid themselves, like a big net, surrounding the entire town of Immokalee.
They began to wait patiently for their prey to appear before they actually took action.
******
"Lao Hu, what should we do?"
Seeing the overwhelming number of orcs in front of him, he was still enjoying himself as he pulled off the equipment on the Khajiit Captain's body bit by bit and put it into the space ring.
Immediately, with a voice that was seriously out of shape due to violent trembling, he roared like this in his mouth.
There is no way, you can’t blame the translator for being too cowardly!
Mainly because in the last attack of the orcs, the entire Zhongzhou team used all their strength, which was the reason why they defeated their opponents with great difficulty.
In the current situation, the orcs' attacking force and intensity have at least increased several times.
And now that Zhongzhou has reached the point where they are running out of gas, how do you think they can carry it? Even if they carry it with their lives, they can't resist it at all.
By this time, Hu Biao had been slumped on the ground for 20 minutes.
Even though the recovery power of the high-level Wolverine is already quite impressive due to his bloodline, he still feels severe pain, weakness and weakness all over his body.
I'm probably fine with walking, but if I want to continue fighting, it's simply impossible.
For this reason, Hu Biao yelled with all his strength: "What else can we do? The task has been completed, why are we still staying in this miserable place to wait for the New Year? Run away quickly.
While those people are still some distance away, throw out all the landmines to give everyone some time to evacuate."
The voice finally fell, and Lao Qi asked the key question: "Lao Hu, what should we do with the wounded?"
According to the long-standing principle of the Zhongzhou team, as long as the teammates are alive, they will never be left alone and they must be taken away.
So the question Lao Qi asked now actually means:
"What to do with the seriously injured indigenous people? Should we take them with us?"
After hearing such a question, Hu Biao instinctively wanted to answer "bring it all with you"; but when the words came to his lips, he held them back.
Mainly because he suddenly realized it at this moment.
Nowadays, most of the members of the team are in a weak stage and can barely keep up with the retreat. There is no need to think about other things such as fighting and helping to carry the wounded.
Only a limited number of team members such as the translator, as well as more than 40 indigenous people who were lucky enough not to be seriously injured, had the energy to carry the wounded.
But in the basements of the three fortresses, the number of seriously wounded people lying now needs to be calculated in units of hundreds.
With limited personnel such as translators, they might not even be able to take away one-fifth of them; whoever is taken away will fall into the hands of the orcs.
For Hu Biao and others, it will be a big problem.
The most important thing is that during the retreat, the translator and others must be ready for combat at any time, so they have the energy to bring a seriously injured person.
The problem is that if these seriously injured people fall into the hands of the orcs, it is basically impossible for them to survive.
Hu Biao suddenly expressed his decision to keep them, but Hu Biao was at a loss to express his decision.
In this same situation, a lieutenant with both legs broken seemed to see Hu Biao's embarrassment and said:
"Sir Hu, please go and leave us alone, otherwise no one will survive.
So just leave me some weapons, ammunition, and grenades; we should be able to buy you some time and thank you for your hospitality these days.
I swear, that beef stew with potatoes and vegetable soup you serve is the best food I've ever had in my life."
Upon hearing this, Hu Biao finally made up his mind and roared loudly:
"Leave some weapons behind, then take the lightly wounded and leave immediately."
In this way, after throwing out a batch of anti-infantry mines at will, some weapons were left for dozens of seriously injured people who could barely fight.
Hu Biao and others began to evacuate towards the town without looking back.
I planned to go to the town to find some transportation, then cross the town and head towards the rear area that was still under human control, and started to escape.
Also during the retreat, Hu Biao was surprised to find Lao Qi in a hurry.
Regardless of his own weakness, he carried a seriously injured person on his back and evacuated together.
Seeing such a look, when Hu Biao was about to curse, he suddenly discovered that the woman on Lao Qi's back was the woman who was lucky enough to pass through the minefield with her child in her arms.
And that baby is currently hanging on the chest with a black traditional Chinese medicine wrap.
Thinking of the relatively special significance of the existence of this mother and son to the team, Hu Biao suppressed the curse on his lips.
And after they ran about ten meters, two fortresses with electromagnetic guns appeared, and a shocking explosion occurred.
In such an explosion, the morale of the human defenders became low.
Everyone knows that the Immokalee Fortress is absolutely unbearable. The only question is how long it will last before it completely falls.
At such a time when there was no hope at all, a large number of defenders fled.
Among them were the military policemen who were on the left side of the second line of defense and claimed to shoot them immediately if they attempted to escape.
These guys, who were merciless when killing their own people, had already fled to a seemingly safer town before Hu Biao and the others arrived at the second line of defense.
But it was precisely this that allowed Hu Biao and the others to escape from this dangerous place without having to fight with humans.
Just as they were about to escape to the second line of defense, a series of explosions and gunshots began to ring out at positions 2, 3, and 5.
After about a minute or two, the sounds completely subsided.
Then, after a few seconds, three more huge explosions reached their ears.
Without looking back, they knew what it meant. It was the severely wounded indigenous people who detonated the explosives in the fortress before they were all killed.
It was also at this time that Hu Biao and the others truly had some sense of identification with these indigenous people.
With the idea that we all belong to the same human race, I am willing to do something for these ordinary people.
