Chapter 179 Blue Sorrow (EP1)

When Vidis's troops retreated to the giant tower defense line, Samuel was still communicating with Libra and Libra to determine their specific locations.

After ending the communication, looking at the combat report sent by Vidis, Samuel also asked about the progress of the giant tower defense line.

"EMM, Your Excellency the Bishop, the extreme defense line is ready, but some important facilities have not yet been debugged."

"for example?"

"The long-range evil spirit nests in the Polar Fortress that are used to deal with the air raids of the Meng Army still need to be adjusted. The spiritual energy sources that maintain the spiritual shields of the Guardian of the Underworld and the Tower of Babel..."

“How long will it take us to complete the commissioning?”

"It will take at least six hours."

"Damn it, there are only a few EP strongholds along the way, and the largest one is in the Transverse Mountains. Let alone six hours, I'm lucky to be able to hold out for two hours."

As Samuel said, there are only a few lines of defense outside the Pole. The largest is the complex base in the Transantarctic Mountains. But considering the strength of the Paradox Engine and the oil drums everywhere there, Samuel doesn't have much hope for this.

But at this moment, Irena also pushed the door open.

"Let me go, Samuel."

"Irena??? Aren't you supposed to be..."

"Let's talk about this later. I have a plan to delay them."

At this time, Irena also pointed her finger to the original highland defense line. It was here that Vidis was repelled by the joint attack of the Boomerang Legion and the Southern Crusaders.

"Although we don't know why the Meng army attaches great importance to this highland defense line, perhaps we can put some effort here."

After a brief discussion, Samuel asked Irena to lead a large force to directly attack the Southern Crusaders on the Highland defense line.

Vidis will also lead a reserve force from the previously dug tunnel to the perimeter of the Southern Crusaders' interception line. She will cooperate with some reinforcements arriving from the southern hemisphere to launch a sneak attack on the Southern Crusaders from behind.

In order to ensure that everything goes well, Samuel approved each of them to command two complete Irkala Aerial Fortresses. After establishing the base, Irena can produce four more Irkalas of the same model.

"There are only two hillside entrances from this plateau. There are three Irkalla Aerial Fortresses at each hillside entrance. Together with the Mist Vehicle and the Lord of Mind, it is enough to slow down their pace."

"What about the Lionheart bombers and Super Thor gunships?"

"Don't we have the Oxidizer Anti-aircraft Vehicles and those reinforced Colossi? As long as there are enough of them, we can give them a good beating."

(Deadly Impact Special Colossus, air defense power increased from 16 to 45, range increased from 11 to 16)

"Good luck. I have put all the defenders except the Trans-Mountain Range under your command. A team of infiltrators is ready."

"I see. You have to work harder too, Bishop Samuel."

Looking at Irena leaving, Samuel couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, but she quickly began to direct the construction of the giant tower defense line.

[Military Operation: Blue Sorrow B]

"Pagan, the Meng army is now approaching the extreme defense line, but our fortress is not fully prepared. We need to buy time for the extreme troops."

After the adjutant finished speaking, he pointed to a heavily guarded Meng army base. If the infiltrator could infiltrate their technology center, he could attract the Meng army's attention.

At this time, a Hummer drove over from a small road northwest of the destination. After confirming their "fake" identities with the sentries along the way, this "lost" Mengjun team also drove into the Mengjun base.

"The Meng army's defense is indeed tight, but have they forgotten that what we are best at is infiltrating behind enemy lines?"

It's no wonder Irena thought so. Although the infiltrator team encountered many cute army troops along the way, such as Abram MK2, Paladin, Hail Siege Platform, etc., there were also Thor gunboats and Charon tanks in the distance.

However, perhaps it is because the Meng Army is too confident or because the defense here is the responsibility of the Meng Army Intelligence Department. There is actually no counterintelligence unit here, let alone robot tanks, there is not even a police dog.

But no matter what she thought, Irena quickly ordered the Hummer to park in the parking lot, and the three infiltrators disguised as soldiers of the Meng Army successfully infiltrated the Meng Army's technology center and production buildings.

"Building infiltrated, new technologie acquired. Building infiltrated, new technology acquired."

“Great, Pagan, we have successfully figured out the distribution and main tasks of the various Meng Army corps in the area.

At the same time, a large force consisting of headquarters guards, PsiCorps and Aqvir has arrived here. After clearing out the cute army here, we will build a base here to attract the cute army's attention.

We have no choice, more troops are on the way, good luck to you pagan."

As soon as the adjutant finished speaking, a large number of armored troops quickly entered the battlefield and cleared out the Southern Cross troops here.

In the familiar torrent of steel, in addition to the familiar T1 armored units such as Whipper, Ops and Digger, Ildons, Lord of the Mind and Colossus also appeared in the combat queue.

In addition, a large number of orcs, dune troopers and nightmare walkers also appeared in the Mengjun base via underground transport vehicles and transport planes.

"Due to the surprise attacks by the Meng Army and the Su Army, our mammoth tanks are stretched thin in number, so we have to bring the Ildons heavy tanks to the battlefield." The adjutant's words also explained the reason to Irena.

But no matter what, Irena also commanded her troops to quickly wipe out the cute army on the high ground.

Due to time constraints, even though the Southern Crusaders had built a relatively complete base, even with a fire control dome in place, there was nothing threatening in those defense towers except for a few huge cannons.

There were not many infantry and armored units among the defenders. The only ones that could be put on the stage were four Thor gunboats. However, in front of a large number of reinforced Colossi, this number was really insignificant. There was no need to DUCK.

The Meng army's giant cannons and light prism towers were destroyed one after another by the Ildons heavy tank's mental energy cannon. At the same time, the production buildings and technological buildings in the base were also occupied by engineers.

Even if the Boomerang Legion below arranged some Zephyr artillery and Blizzard tanks to try to help their friendly forces, the Lords of Mind mixed in the armored cluster would make them turn against their own side in an instant.

After the MCV was successfully deployed, subsequent siege vehicles and an air fleet also arrived at the high ground area.

"Pagan, the Meng army has discovered our intentions. They are calling for reinforcements from the Lionheart bombers. Please prepare for air defense."

As soon as the adjutant finished speaking, the countdown for the four Lionheart bombings instantly appeared in the lower right corner of the combat terminal, and the countdown was ten minutes each.

Seeing this, Irena also ordered the laser UFOs and poisonous lizard warships to bypass the air defense positions of the Southern Crusaders and Boomerang Legion along the route taken by the infiltrator team while building the base, and directly destroy the MCV of the cute army.

The effect of this surprise attack force was very good. The cute army along the way only had a small number of heavily armored soldiers, Patriot missiles and T1 anti-aircraft vehicles. The laser UFOs and poisonous lizard battleships could be easily dealt with by arc kinetic cannons and mental energy cannons.

After successfully entering the Mengjun base, several laser UFOs began to use "parasitic gravity" to cut off the power supply of the Mengjun base and rob the money. The poisonous lizard warships also began to "de-urbanize" the Mengjun base.

"Warning enemy air armada detected! Warning! Enemy air armada detected!"

While Irena was happily carrying out the "de-urbanization" work, the adjutant suddenly warned her that a team of Moe Army's air force was approaching.

When entering the radar range, Irena discovered that they were actually several Lionheart bombers!!!

However, with the help of the telepathy, Irena quickly made her armored troops avoid the bombing route, and the production buildings along the route were sold one after another.

Soon the Lionheart bombers began dropping bombs on the high ground, but the results were far from ideal, as the hybrid bombs were mostly avoided by the Epsilon army.

There were even a few Lionheart bombers whose routes passed through the area where the Colossi were concentrated, and the result was naturally tragic.

After this wave of bombing ended, the adjutant also gave a considerate reminder.

"Warning enemy armor battalion detected! Warning! Enemy armored units detected!"

At this time, after losing the MCV and production buildings, the two Meng army commanders immediately assembled all the armored forces and launched an attack on Irena's base from two hillsides leading to the highlands after the reinforcements arrived.

However, ideals are full, and reality is very skinny. After seeing the desperate charge of the Meng army, Samuel quickly provided Irena with a group of Colossi and the Lord of the Heart, and two Irkalla Aerial Fortresses also rushed here.

The attack route of the Boomerang Legion was firmly blocked by the Diggers and Ops Custom Tanks. At the same time, the Colossus, the Lord of Mind and the Magnetic Control Tanks, which were high above, also began to give the Cute Army some small surprises.

The attack of the Southern Crusaders was not smooth either. While the Whipper tanks served as targets to attract fire, Ildons, Colossus and the air fleet led by Irkalla could safely destroy the attacking Meng army.

Although the Meng army also arranged airborne troops to try to assist the Southern Crusaders' attack, these airborne troops basically could not escape the fate of being turned into berserk orcs by Irkala's Earth Nova Rays.

As for the air strikes, the large number of Colossi, Inferno Platforms and Oxidizer anti-aircraft vehicles in the Irena base can say that any Moe Air Force that dares to come to bomb will basically end up without return.

However, at this time, Irena quickly set up a synthesis tank and installed the genetic component Pandora Hub. At the same time, a large number of Colossi and Oxidizer tank bunkers were stationed in the base.

Just as the Meng army was preparing to guide the Mercury satellite to attack, Irena's base saw that her troops were marked as "target locked" and quickly set up several mind blockers while maintaining power. Those at a long distance were also protected by fog vehicles.

(Mind Blocker: EP defensive building in MO2, this thing can make buildings, infantry and vehicles within the invisible range invisible, and can hide itself.)

"What happened? Why did the Epsilon base disappear?"

"I guess Epsilon has used their illusion technology again. This is going to be difficult."

Just as the commander of the Meng army said, due to the use of fog vehicles and mind blockers, the Meng army was completely in the dark about the defense of the EP ground forces.

Because of this reason, several rounds of trans-dimensional raids launched by the Meng army were either mind-controlled or eliminated, and they had no other effect except contributing some Athena Cannons and Light Prism MK2 to Irena.

"Warning, several Lionheart bombers have entered the battlefield!!!" X4

Following the adjutant's reminder, several blue flares appeared in Irena's base, and a large number of Lionheart bombers launched carpet bombing on Irena's base from multiple directions.

In order to increase the success rate of the operation, several cute army commanders also ordered Black Widow Alpha to act together with Sandstorm support aircraft, Hummingbird and Dust Tornado.

Although this horrific air strike launched by the Moe Army with all its strength was intercepted by Epsilon with all its might, and a large number of Moe Army fighter planes were shot down by the Inferno Platform, Colossus and Irkalla, they still caused some damage to the Epsilon base.

But the attack of the cute army stopped there. Although the Paradox Engine also provided a lot of trans-dimensional reinforcements to the highland defense line, a large number of Thor gunboats, Ou Meng, and Pacific fully armored troops also attacked Irena's base continuously as if they were free.

Irena also arranged a large number of Colossi, Ildons, Lords of the Mind and other T3 armored units at the two intersections. Each intersection also had three Irkalla Aerial Fortresses with laser UFOs and poisonous lizard battleships to assist in defense.

As for the effectiveness of the attack... just look at those elite Irkalla Aerial Fortresses and you'll know the result.

However, when the Meng army stationed here concentrates all its strength to prepare for a decisive battle with Irena's troops occupying the high ground defense line, the troops led by Vidis will also start to attack from another direction.
