Chapter 90: Hysteria (Which side is the intelligence officer on?)
Perhaps even Sig did not realize how buggy the decisive weapon left by his teacher was. Stopping time could turn a evenly matched battle into an absolute victory with zero casualties.
Realizing this, the Moe Army decisively evolved from a "remnant force" to a "cruel force". Based on the principle of reciprocity, the Moe Army also smashed and looted Epsilon's base in North Africa.
However, as time went on, Epsilon, which was originally overwhelmed by the Paradox Engine, gave up part of its territory under Yuri's arrangement and started a tug-of-war with the Cute Army.
The offensive of the Moe Army also gradually slowed down. On the one hand, the large-scale raid on Epsilon did not cause any substantial losses to the enemy, and considering that the Scorpion Organization had arranged a large number of outposts here, the Moe Army also needed to analyze which places were worthy targets for raids.
On the other hand, in the past two months, the Paradox Engine has been operating at full capacity due to the continuous use of time stops. Although Zi Yu recovered a large number of biochemical reaction rooms and nuclear power plants in the raid, it is just a drop in the bucket for the ever-increasing power consumption.
Now the power of the Paradox Engine has been seriously depleted. Most of the batteries have been exhausted, and a few still have some power, but large-scale hyperspace teleportation and time stopping are impossible.
After that meeting, in addition to formulating a raid on the Canary Islands, the Meng army also made the following improvements to the battle plan:
The first thing is to abandon the mindless advancement of the combat plan and instead focus on raiding the enemy's logistics bases, especially borrowing the enemy's power stations, power generation raw materials, oil and other resources.
Secondly, we need to focus on those big cities and puppet bases based on the intelligence. On the one hand, this is to replenish the troops, and on the other hand, in addition to police dogs and monsters, those biochemical reaction rooms can also allow citizens to go in and generate electricity.
...........................
While the Moe Army's temporary command was discussing follow-up plans, the Moe commander was discussing a raid on the Canary Islands with his adjutant based on satellite images.
"Commander, according to satellite images, there are Epsilon troops stationed on several independent islands in the archipelago."
"So for the safety of the Paradox Engine, we must completely eliminate the Epsilon army here, right?"
"Yes, according to the command. You need to command a mixed force to land on Tenerife. After you occupy those biochemical reaction rooms, the Paradox Engine will transfer two of the dead batteries and charge them in overload mode."
"Got it. How long does it take to charge the battery?"
"Half an hour is enough, or even shorter. Once the Paradox Engine arrives, the battery will be sent back for installation. Then we can let Paradox use time stop to wipe out all the enemies here."
"Got it. By the way, did it say what kind of support it could provide?"
"The top management agreed to provide two Super Thor gunships and a batch of cryo-helicopters. GDI also agreed to provide Abrams MK2, and the subsequent trans-dimensional reinforcements can also provide MK2."
"That's enough." Mengzhi said and turned on the combat control system.
————Inside EP Base
At this time, Samuel, who was in a coma, suddenly woke up.
"Ah!!! Where am I?"
"You finally woke up. If Istaru hadn't acted quickly yesterday, you would have almost killed the three of us on the oil drum."
"If Boss La hadn't said he would treat us with food from the Third Canteen, would I have driven?"
"Okay, let's get down to business. Ten minutes before you woke up, the intelligence officer told me that they were going to launch a raid on the Canary Islands. I've already asked for the live broadcast permission, so we can take a look."
"understood."
————Combat Control System Connected————
Military Action: Hysteria
At this time, several Voyager landing craft carrying engineers and Abrams MK2 were approaching the coast under the cover of the aircraft carrier fleet, and they were escorted by air forces consisting of Super Thunder gunboats, Thor, Warhawk, Freeze and rocket pilots.
"Freezing helicopter? I didn't expect the Meng army to still have weapons research and development capabilities after leaving the British Isles."
"After all, we only destroyed the ground facilities at that time. They must have arranged a backup storage room underground."
"Siegfried, this guy is really better than his master!"
"You're too messy."
While the two were communicating, Mengzhi also noticed the psychic elites, magnetic electric tanks and other units on the beach that posed a great threat to the amphibious forces.
Therefore, he decided to let the carrier-based aircraft follow the air force to eliminate the enemies on the beach and the nearby high ground first.
"HMMMHHMMMM..." At this time, the driver of the Super Thor gunship was humming "Ride of the Valkyrie" while pouring fire on those anti-aircraft units under the artillery fire.
With the help of a large amount of lightning, artillery shells and oil drums pouring down like rain, the air defense forces such as the Inferno Platform, Oxidizer, Piranha Submarine and others deployed by Epsilon on the beachhead were quickly wiped out.
After the super-thunder gunboat finished kicking the door, other air force units with weaker defenses began to clear the defenders and defense towers on the beach after eliminating the remaining archers and piranhas.
"Do we really have to place so many oil drums on the defense line?" Yuri complained as he watched the defense line being breached by the oil drums.
"This is still considered a small amount. As for the more... " Samuel said this while remembering the experience of the Kamaz hitting an oil barrel.
"Well, fine. But it looks like that Moeji guy wants to occupy these production buildings and power stations. I would rather these facilities have been destroyed by the oil barrels."
"Probably used to charge the Paradox Engine."
After the boring air strike was over, the landing craft carrying the engineers immediately went ashore and painted the buildings.
"Commander, with the help of Epsilon's radar turret, we have located the locations of all the biochemical reaction chambers. The next step is to occupy them to recharge the Paradox."
After the adjutant finished speaking, he also marked the locations of those power stations.
"Adjutant, is the Chrono Teleporter ready for use?"
"Okay, now Paradox can send some tanks and Thor gunships for support. In addition, we have also located the Epsilon army's mines and crushing and recycling plants."
At this time, four icons appeared on Mengzhi's combat terminal, and the adjutant also sent over the things that could be transmitted.
"One Thor, two Abrams MK2s, three Knights, and three Prisms. Do each of these cost three thousand dollars? The occupied mines can be put to good use."
"Commander, considering the current power supply, the Chrono Teleporter can only operate for half an hour. Please arrange for reinforcements."
"understood."
At this time, Mengzhi was also producing invisible mining vehicles to mine, while transporting Thor gunships, Abrams and Prism tanks.
"This, Paradox can send troops outward?"
"Yes, there is a pocket dimension inside the Paradox that can carry a large number of troops and use hyperspace teleportation to send them into battle. Those guys always like to play around with the laws of physics."
"EMM, if we want to grab the Paradox Engine in this case, we need to plan carefully."
When there were enough Abrams and Prism tanks, Mengzhi immediately commanded the armored forces to clear the enemies on the high ground accompanied by the repair Stingers.
Looking at the Psychic Beacon in the base, Meng pointed to the intelligence officer and asked.
"Did you see that?"
"What the hell? I didn't see anything."
"Is that so? That proves this thing is not a fake."
After receiving the reply, Mengzhi immediately ordered the engineers to prepare to occupy the Psychic Beacon and the Rage Initiator, but Yuri saw this and immediately detonated them.
"Hmph, I won't make the same mistake over and over again."
"It should have been done a long time ago."
After the Psychic Beacon was destroyed, the Latin Tongmeng troops that were originally mind-controlled also began to exchange fire with the Epsilon army.
"Commander, we received a communication from Latin Tong Meng."
"Come in."
After briefly explaining the situation to the Latin general, Moe Finger decided that considering that they could no longer contact the headquarters and that there was a powerful enemy, Epsilon, this Latin Moe unit was willing to join the Moe Army to fight against Epsilon.
After Latin Tongmeng provided the defense map, the black screen on the map disappeared.
After enough reinforcements were teleported through time and space, Mengzhi also commanded the commandos to clear out the Epsilon defenders.
"All Super Thor gunships, take all your air forces to eliminate the defenders stationed in the city and the Northwest Power Plant."
"All armored units, go to the northeast and eliminate the enemies there."
"Stay away from the light prism. Those defense towers are too close to the biochemical reactor. Let Abrams take care of it."
"Be careful of the enemy's oxidizers and infernal platforms. The super-thunder gunboats should destroy them first."
After the engineers repaired the concert hall next to the high ground, Mengzhi received some funds and medals. However, before Mengzhi could be happy, several prism tanks that had just been teleported over smashed the concert hall while clearing the nearby infantry.
"My goodness, I was wondering why our support rate increased so quickly."
"That's enough paganism, let's continue watching."
At this time, the commandos, with the assistance of Latin Tongmeng and Oil Barrel, successfully cleared out most of the defenders near the biochemical reactor, and those production buildings, technological buildings and unmanned vehicles were also occupied by engineers.
“I really don’t know what these guys were thinking. They actually placed the Blast Lice near the power plants.” Mengzhi complained as he looked at the last few power plants.
However, despite the complaints, Mengzhi also let the Abrams open a gap with one shot after the Prism Tank destroyed the nearby Gatling gun, and then lured out the Blast Ticks and eliminated them all.
However, after occupying these biochemical reaction rooms, Mengzhi also realized a serious problem - who will go to the reaction room to charge?
His own troops certainly wouldn't be enough, and gathering enough military dogs and monsters would be not only time-consuming and laborious but also costly. After all, reinforcements from other times and spaces also cost money.
However, at this time, the Mengjun intelligence officer patted his chest and said that he would just leave it to her.
She then used radar spirals and radio towers to broadcast the news to the public.
"Dear comrades, the traitor Yuri has deceived you. He wants to throw you into the cold biochemical reactor and the horrible crushing and recycling plant to generate electricity and make money for him.
We must crush his plot, and help us recharge the batteries of our war machine for our greater purpose."
The key point is that after hearing this, the people chose to join the Mengjun’s cause, and they went into the biochemical reactor to generate electricity.
"This guy is doing exactly the same thing as us, isn't he? Even his rhetoric is the same as ours. There's no way this is going to impress anyone."
"It's impossible. How on earth did this guy do it?"
"Yuri, are you sure she doesn't have psychic powers?"
"She probably didn't."
"hope so."
At this time, the last two Abrams MK2s also came over, and the adjutant also reminded Mengzhi that the power of the trans-dimensional teleporter was no longer enough to maintain the transmission.
"That's fine. Anyway, the number of reinforcements we have now is sufficient."
At this time, before letting the civilians enter the biochemical reactor, Mengzhi also arranged enough troops on the road leading to the power plant to cooperate with the defense of concrete bunkers and civilian houses. There were also Gatling tanks near the power plant to guard against Epsilon's air force sneak attacks. There were also a large number of archers, Jaguars, and Disasters stationed near the ferry.
When there was enough electricity, several Paradox Engine batteries were transported over along with an MCV, and at the same time several Chrono Legion soldiers also arrived.
"According to intelligence, Epsilon has set up a base in the northeast."
"Understood. I have arranged for the troops to handle it."
"That's the southwest."
"Yes, what else?"
At this time, a group of Abrams MK2 rushed towards the main base. They used laser cannons and main guns to easily destroy the enemy's troops under the enemy's firepower. The nearby Mind Lords and Mind Experts were unable to control them.
Yuri also complained when he saw this.
"The enhanced power of these Abrams is too terrifying."
"Yes, according to the intelligence officer, these guys are not only far superior to their predecessors in performance, but they are also immune to conventional mind control. It's really a bug."
"Perhaps I can use a powerful mental shock to control them, but unfortunately Moe Finger already knows how to use the intelligence of the intelligence officer, otherwise I think our surprise attack would have been successful."
"Yuri, I think we can start with the battery of the Paradox Engine."
"Good idea. We can train the electricians. If the Paradox Engine runs out of power while it's flying..."
"It's such a beautiful sight."
After the main base was easily razed to the ground by a large number of Abrams MK2s, the Epsilon army could only attack the biochemical reaction rooms through amphibious forces, airborne forces, air force and a small amount of land forces. Is that the effect...
The Marauders and Magneto tanks attacking from the beach were sent into the sea to feed the fish by the large number of archers deployed on the beach, while the airborne troops, Ghost fighters, and invading UFOs were either killed by Thor and Super Thunder or dealt with by Gatling tanks.
As for the army, it was even worse. The orcs and poisonous explosive lice that suddenly appeared near the Mengjun base were all targeted by machine gun bunkers, Gatling tanks and snipers. The armored forces that came to support along the highway were also destroyed by Warhawk helicopters and fixed artillery positions.
When the charging work is completed, the Paradox Engine will use hyperspace teleportation to send the battery back and install it.
"Sorry, the time stop here is not coordinated well. We will be included in the time stop range in a while."
"Varied……"
Before Mengzhi could finish his words, the combat terminal came to a standstill. When the combat control system was reconnected, a large number of Barracuda bombers flew through the sky, and the remaining Epsilon troops here and the defenders of the surrounding islands were completely wiped out.
"It was really scary to see so many barracudas flying around. We really shouldn't have let them take it back."
"Speaking of which, did we gain anything else this time?"
"Yes, yes. The cute army has revealed the working principle of the Paradox Engine this time. Combined with the previous video, we can develop weapons to target this thing sooner."
"That's good."
After the Paradox Engine cleared the Canary Islands' defenders, the expeditionary force immediately used overload mode to fully charge all batteries. This charging operation was successfully completed.
Although the Moe Finger's troops were also frozen in time and space due to a calibration system problem, it was not a big deal. The expeditionary force also gained the participation of a Latin Moe army, and the newly developed Barracuda bombers and cryo-helicopters also proved their strength.
For Epsilon, these new weapons also prove that the Moe Army can still continue scientific research on the Paradox Engine even if they lose the London Fortress. At the same time, due to their proximity to the battlefield, these new weapons will be more targeted against Epsilon.
After this operation, the Moe Army, having learned from previous lessons, began to implement the battle plan previously formulated by the headquarters. They used the islands below as their base, launched targeted raids on Epsilon, and began to reorganize or support the Moe Army.
In addition, the intelligence departments of the Meng Army and GDI also began to collect useful information to provide reference for the formulation of the next plan, so that they can strike hard against Epsilon as long as the time is right.
Mengzhi also made the suggestion when reorganizing the troops.
"Can we contact the rebels in Eagle Sauce and see if they can join us?"
After successfully rebuilding the Mercury satellite terminal, the expeditionary force also successfully established contact with the Eagle Sauce Rebellion.
The Eagle Sauce Rebels, considering the enemy at hand, did not care about the two cute friends' previous backstabbing and agreed to cooperate. The expeditionary force also imparted their combat experience with Epsilon to them without reservation, and also arranged a large number of super-time and space reinforcements with new technology to support them.
After receiving reinforcements, the Eagle Sauce Resistance decided to launch a surprise attack on the Epsilon Army, using Boston's Psychic Beacon to surprise the enemy. The PsiCorps, who had noticed the problem, would also arrange a force to recapture the beacon.
