Chapter 25: Chicago was hit by a nuclear bomb again

After separating from Orlando, Moezhi rushed to Chicago without stopping. On the way, the adjutant reported to him the preliminary research results on the mind technology. It turned out that through this technology, the strange and abnormal events before began to have traces. Whether it was the destruction of the Peacekeeper, the annihilation of the Bahamas Fleet, or the loss of contact in New York, the reasons could now be found.

"Commander, our satellite network has detected that the Su Army is building Psychic Beacons in St. Louis and Chicago. Lieutenant Colonel Orlando has gone to command the main force there, and you will be responsible for destroying the amplifiers in Chicago with Major General Reyes. If the Su Army continues to deploy these Psychic Beacons on a large scale, we will be gradually devoured and destroyed by them."

After listening to the adjutant's report, Mengzhi took a deep breath and walked into the combat command headquarters outside Chicago without hesitation.

"Long time no see, Commander Scott. I didn't expect we would meet again so soon."

"Indeed, it's nice to meet you, Major General Reyes. The next landing operation will be left to you." Mengzhi said sincerely.

"no problem!"

After the greetings, both of them started connecting to the combat terminal.

[Military Operation: A Beautiful Mind Location: Chicago, Illinois, USA]

After the combat terminal went online, Reyes immediately ordered his aircraft carrier fleet to quickly attack the three giant artillery batteries near the coast under the escort of destroyers and hammerhead helicopters, and cleared out the sticky navy forces around them. Then, under the concentrated firepower of several Enterprise-class aircraft carriers, the Psychic Beacon located on the coast was also completely destroyed. And the whole process took less than three minutes!

After the navy successfully cleared all obstacles, Mengzhi immediately dispatched several traveler landing craft to quickly reach the base. As the landing craft slowly approached the shore, several Abrams main battle tanks and Skyfire anti-aircraft tanks drove out of the boats, and they were arranged in a neat and uniform manner, ready to meet the next battle. Then Mengzhi began to build mining cars, train engineers and pilots, and set up artillery groups for defense.

"Reinforcements have arrived." As soon as the intelligence officer finished speaking, several Hammerhead Shark helicopters arrived at the battlefield as fast as lightning.

"Adjutant, where are the Warhawk helicopter blueprints that I stored in the MCV?" Mengzhi asked anxiously.

"Hmm...it seems that the intelligence officer threw that thing away as draft paper." The adjutant replied after thinking for a moment.

"Where is the intelligence agent?" Mengzhi asked with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

"She went to calculate the time for the amplifier." The adjutant shrugged helplessly.

"...Forget it, let's ask the engineer to come and see what else is in here." Mengzhi rubbed his temple and waved his hand helplessly.

When the engineer entered the room, he immediately saw the Warhawk blueprint in his construction column. Mengzhi closed his eyes silently, speechless.

"Let me see, modified longbow? Isn't this the original design drawing of the Warhawk? I originally thought that the Intelligence Department accidentally lost it, but I didn't expect it to be forgotten here." The adjutant complained calmly. She had long been accustomed to this kind of behavior of the Intelligence Department.

At this critical moment, a Kirov airship staggered towards the Mengjun base as if it had epilepsy. However, it did not stay proud for long, as the Alliance decisively dispatched the Skyfire tank and shot it down in an instant.

Soon after, the reinforcements sent by the Meng army’s top brass also arrived at the battlefield in time.

"Long time no see, two commanders! Thunder Claw Squadron reports in!"

Following a familiar voice, dozens of Abrams main battle tanks and Skyfire tanks filed in from the lower left corner of the command terminal. Mengzhi acted decisively and quickly divided them into two groups. One group worked together with the bunkers and air defense lines to protect the base with all their strength; the other group took the maintenance vehicle and boarded the Traveler landing craft, and successfully landed under the escort of the navy. Abrams cleared the Su army near the landing point with thunderous force, paving the way for subsequent operations. Then, the engineers quickly seized the technological outposts and oil wells here. The next battle was to rely on the powerful forces of Abrams, Hammerhead Shark armed helicopters and Warhawk helicopter formations to steadily advance forward. On the way forward, they painted the buildings of Su Ni and Latin Tong Meng, making them all blue.

While the decoration work was in full swing at the Mengzhi, the Mengjun intelligence officer seemed to be cursed and miscalculated the numbers one after another, which directly caused the countdown to become extremely fast, beyond everyone's expectations. However, at this tense moment, Reyes showed his outstanding leadership. He not only calmly commanded the aircraft carrier fleet and successfully destroyed the iron curtain device protecting the amplifier, but also dealt with the Su army who attempted to launch a sneak attack from the rear of the base.

Just as Mengzhi occupied the Su Army's MCV, a rapid communication signal suddenly came.

"Hello, hello! Can you hear me? This is the St. Louis base. We have completed the mission. How is the situation in Chicago?"

"Everything is normal here. Please tell me your mission code and specific content." Mengzhi knew that this sudden communication might contain important information, and he planned to look for clues from the wizard's words.

"Codename: Peace Treaty. The mission is to build a Psychic Beacon in St. Louis to control the main force of the Moe Army here. Hello? Hello, Hello, Hello!!! Why did you suddenly hang up?" The Wizard also found something wrong at this time. He quickly determined that the Chicago Moe Army was about to be annihilated. So he reported the matter to Yuri.

"Chicago is about to be captured!" Yuri said to Romanov after receiving the news.

Upon hearing the news, Romanov asked in astonishment and anger: "What? Why were the Americans able to achieve such a victory?" His tone was full of confusion and unwillingness.

At this moment, Yuri is using his psychic powers to imply that the fall of Chicago has nothing to do with PsiCorps, hoping to shift the blame and protect the reputation of his department in this way.

Romanov then quickly reported the emergency to the Supreme Command. After a tense discussion, the Supreme Command made a decisive decision - to act first and report later. They decided to launch a powerful MIDAS missile towards Chicago in the hope of turning the tide of the war.

"Speaking of which, Yuri, what should we do now?"

"Let's go find some drawings. It seems that getting rid of the stickiness is a foregone conclusion." The two said in the mental network.

Mengzhi, who had just hung up the call, immediately realized a serious problem: St. Louis had been controlled by the enemy! Not only that, but Orlando was also under mind control. Mengzhi was extremely anxious after realizing this, and he decided to speed up the elimination of the local Su army to avenge his friend.

(Orlando's inner monologue: Thank you so much, I was just controlled, I didn't sacrifice myself!)

"Scott, destroy that amplifier quickly! According to the intelligence we just received, the Su army is preparing to launch a nuclear bomb with special power in this direction. The situation is very urgent, we must evacuate this dangerous area as soon as possible!" General Reyes' voice sounded in the communication channel, his tone was extremely anxious.

At the same time, the Mengzhi was busy carrying out the "demolition" mission. After hearing Reyes' reminder, he just responded calmly: "Got it, General." Then, the Mengzhi immediately put into action and began to mass-produce Traveler landing craft and Maxima transport aircraft.

At this moment, Mengzhi was not idle at the Sujun base either. They were also working hard to produce Destroyer vehicles and Tiger armored vehicles, while the construction of the Bison transport boats in the dock was also accelerated.

As time went by, the atmosphere became more and more tense. "Hiss—" Reyes took a deep breath and urged, "Scott, we have to leave here immediately!" After that, he personally commanded a Maxima transport plane, led Mengzhi and other personnel to quickly fly away from Chicago.

With a loud bang, the amplifier was successfully destroyed. The Meng army relied on various vehicles to quickly evacuate the city from the sea and air. However, for those civilians who were unable to evacuate in time, they could only say sorry silently in their hearts.

When the Chicago citizens who had just escaped from the mind control looked at the broken buildings and tank wreckage around them, the air defense alarm suddenly sounded, and before they lost consciousness, they saw a missile explode in the air above the amplifier ruins. Many people could only raise the international friendly gesture to the "sun" and then were vaporized.

After MIDAS razed Chicago to the ground, a driller with three radiation engineers began to check the damage caused by MIDAS, accompanied by a roar. The Psychic Department, which received the report, seriously exaggerated the damage caused by MIDAS in the subsequent report to the Supreme Command.

Looking at the mushroom cloud in the distance and the familiar "mission accomplished" sign on the terminal, the two commanders could only sigh helplessly. This nuclear attack only affected a few helicopters, and the main force suffered no serious losses.

When this thrilling battle came to a temporary end, although the Chicago Meng army did not suffer heavy losses due to the attack of MIDAS due to the timely reminder of Major General Reyes, the current situation is still severe and the Meng army is not optimistic. At present, only half of the Meng army's main force is left, and the Su army has captured almost all key cities and heavy industrial areas of Eagle Sauce. It can be asserted that the strategy of defending Eagle Sauce has completely failed. However, at this moment, the Eagle Sauce army still has a certain combat effectiveness. The Hawaii and Alaska fortresses are still under their control, and the Atlantic Fleet, which still has combat effectiveness, also advances to Europe in accordance with General Kaveri's orders. At the same time, Mengzhi and Reyes will also split their troops into two groups: Mengzhi will lead his troops to Europe; while Reyes and Beton will be responsible for commanding their soldiers and the remaining US troops to stay here to contain the Su army.

As for the Su Army, since the Psychic Amplifier was destroyed, the range of the Psychic Beacon was forced to be reduced to reduce the loss of the Psychic Beacon. And those uncontrolled Meng Army, under the command of Major General Reyes, would launch a guerrilla war with the Su Army and pin some of the Su Army's troops here.

However, the wizards and pagans will not have anything to do with these things for the time being. They will all start new tasks under the leadership of their respective superiors.
