Chapter 323 Return to Athens
After the plan to intercept Lindrak failed, although Yuri was upset about the fact that the cooked duck flew away, he only deducted one year's bonus from Samuel, considering that the merits and demerits offset each other.
Now let's get down to business. Su Ni is now finished. Although Lindlak, the only one who escaped, successfully took away his newly developed technology, he is now a lone commander. We don't have to worry about him causing trouble in the short term.
The next target would be Ou Meng, who was entrenched in the three islands of Ylun. In fact, after the "Victory Day" operation ended, Ou Meng noticed the return of Epsilon.
After discovering that Epsilon had captured the Sevastopol Fortress at an extremely fast speed, Ou Meng decided to gather all the main forces and their newly developed behemoth vehicles at a secret location, preparing to use hyperspace transmission to give Yuri a surprise.
But what Ou Meng didn't know was that, firstly, considering the strength of their intelligence agents, the so-called top-secret intelligence was no different from the news that was published in broad daylight.
Another thing is that although they have used hyperspace teleportation to deploy troops as low-key as possible, this can avoid the radar stations deployed on the other side of the strait, but it cannot be hidden from the telepathic sensors.
Therefore, Yuri soon learned their gathering place—Athens, the capital of Greece.
The next step is to let Samuel lead an advance team to find a location in Athens to establish a forward base. Based on the principle of proactive attack, she needs to destroy the facilities there according to the list.
"Let me see. The buildings to be destroyed include the Trans-Dimensional Teleporter, the Origin Technology Laboratory, and the new weapon that can control or destroy Ou Meng.
This, destroy the statue of victory? Why...why would you destroy this thing?"
"I guess it's to dampen Ou Meng's morale. By the way, Samuel, the advance team is about to arrive at the designated location, so prepare for battle."
"Okay, Istaru."
————Combat Control System Connected————
[Military Operation: Athena's Wrath]
The first thing that comes into view is an Athenian temple with a destruction icon marked on it, and then the view moves southward.
Istaru told Samuel that this was the location where the advance team was going to establish a forward base, but it was obvious that Ou Meng had also arranged heavy troops to guard it, so there would definitely be a fierce battle ahead.
“It looks like Ou Meng has deployed all the troops they could muster here.
This will make it easier for us to catch them all in one fell swoop, heretic, it's your turn to take action next."
"Istaru, can I ask who is in charge of the cute army on the other side?"
“It’s Wellington and Maxwell, don’t worry, we won’t run into European and American officers like Ziyu or Alexandra here.
By the way, we have obtained the specific information of the stasis field. If you want to restrain it, you can only rely on infantry. The air force and submarines will crash or sink to the bottom, and other vehicles will be unable to move. "
At this time, Samuel also looked at his advance team. In addition to the Shenzhou transport boats, there were some Thunder submarines, Psychic Elites, and some elite spacecraft.
"Let me see, it's light, fast, and has great firepower, it looks like a flying piranha submarine.
Also, why is the Psychic Elite called Yuri Kai? Oh, so the mind control distance is longer, then there is no problem."
The next step is to attack. Ten elite spaceships will reach the coastline from the northeast and clear out the Meng army there in advance. Then the Shenzhou transport boat will land there under the escort of the spiritual elites.
The seven Thunder submarines will directly raid the naval forces of the Meng Army. The large number of powerful M-type torpedoes will be enough to give the Meng Army a hard time.
————A few moments later
Just as Samuel thought, the small number of troops deployed by the Meng army on the northeastern beach was no match for the elite spacecraft and psychic elites, and the four Shenzhou transport boats took the opportunity to successfully land.
The Thunder Submarine Squadron was also making smooth progress. Be it the Horizon, the assault destroyer, the Dolphin, the Aegis, or the tough Trident battleship, they were all sent into the sea to feed the fish in the face of continuous torpedo attacks.
Then, Samuel began the three-line operation. The landing troops began to clear the surrounding debris to make room for the base construction. The Thunder submarine used missiles outside the range of the giant cannon to clear the defense facilities and defenders around the dock; and the energy spacecraft was going to destroy the temple.
The first to complete the mission were the Air Force. They destroyed the temple with lightning speed and began to methodically clear out the Meng army troops on the high ground where the temple was located.
Of course, Samuel also witnessed the weakness of the armor of the energy spacecraft. Faced with a small number of heavily armored soldiers, rocket pilots and Patriot missiles around the temple, the Air Force also lost two-fifths of its spacecraft.
After the Thunder submarine successfully destroyed part of the dock's defense facilities, Istaru also gave Samuel a suggestion.
"Samuel, pay attention to the communication tower at the port. If you destroy it, you can reduce the attacking forces of the Meng army."
"understood."
For the Thunder Submarine Force, the Meng Army’s naval forces are a living experience package for them.
The only problem is that the Meng army will use sonar pulses to force submarine forces to surface, which also makes them easy targets for coastal defense artillery.
After destroying the communication tower, Samuel ordered the air force to sneak in through the weak points of the Meng army's air defense and cause damage, while looking for a suitable position for the MCV to deploy.
"Well done, Pagan. But this is just the beginning."
Then Samuel's perspective was forced to shift to the targets to be destroyed or controlled. Yuri also kindly explained some questions to Samuel, such as the goal of destroying the statue of the goddess of victory was to prevent the cute army from boosting morale from the virtual gods.
"To be honest, this Yuri gives me a very..."
"I have the same idea, but let's focus on the things at hand first."
As Samuel successfully deployed the MCV, the two European generals also activated the super-dimensional teleporter and the stasis field respectively, with CDs of six and a half minutes and five minutes respectively.
"Pagan, in order to support your operation, I have also specially arranged a wave of reinforcements for you."
Following Istaru's reminder, an armored force guarding the headquarters also rushed to the battlefield from the east of the island. Samuel found that it was mainly composed of T3 tanks such as Kaamos, Colossus and Savior.
Accompanying these armored units were siege infantry such as Reapers and Nightmare Walkers. Although many of them were killed because the pagans on the opposite side had no idea how to command them, they still managed to wipe out most of the cute troops defending the dock.
"Pagan, we just got the satellite map of the local Meng army from the Meng army intelligence officer, and now we are uploading it to you."
“It’s quite timely.”
After looking at these attack targets one by one, Samuel decided to start with the Origin Technology Laboratory that controls the stasis field.
I have to say that the Meng army is really careless. They just casually placed such important things on the coast, and there are not many troops protecting it around.
Under the attack of the Thunder Submarine Team, the Horizon destroyers protecting the periphery of the laboratory were sunk one after another, and then the team also found a suitable launching position.
“Guidance systems checked. Guidance systems checked.”
“They’ll never see it ing. They’ll never know where it came from.”
"Yuri will be proud. Yuri will be proud."
When several Thunder submarines surfaced and prepared to launch missiles, the defenders around the laboratory realized the danger. They quickly attacked the Thunder submarines, but the Thunder submarines had thick skin and flesh, and could withstand several shots even from the giant cannons.
By the time the Thunder submarine completed its mission and left, even though it was hit by a sonar pulse once, only one submarine in the team had its durability reduced by half, and the attacked laboratory was also destroyed before Maxwell found the stand shield.
"Well done, Pagan. Without the interference of the stasis field, we can now use our air force and submarine forces without restraint."
As for the base, in order to deal with the trans-temporal and spatial raid of the Meng Army, Samuel left the Mind Elites and the Mind Lords in the base, and she will also add combat bunkers around the base later.
The "Responsibility" team and the electromagnetic tanks led by the Queen of the Underworld, Artemis, used their range or weapon advantages to assist friendly forces in clearing the last remnants of the defeated troops at the dock.
"Samuel, you have to be careful with your speed. Wellington has called on the cute troops from other areas to come to support."
"How long do we have?" asked Samuel, who was commanding the Thunder submarine to attack Maxwell's main base.
"Forty minutes at most."
"That's enough. Now that Maxwell's main base is gone, we just need to destroy his production facilities. He will be like a grasshopper after autumn and won't be able to jump for much longer."
At this time, the Meng Army's army where the forward base was located had been completely wiped out, and the navy only had a few Horizon and Aegis cruisers left. They only needed to let the magneto-electric tanks pull them to the land one by one and scrap them.
All that's left is to have the engineers take over the island's tech buildings and deploy the Queen of the Underworld to guard against the Moe Army's barracudas.
As for the forward base, Samuel has already built the Pandora Hub and equipped it with genetic components, and even Rahn has joined the battlefield.
Next, the Thunder submarines will continue to clear out the Meng army fleet stationed on the coastline and destroy the enemy's docks. Samuel will begin to focus his production capacity on the elite spacecraft.
As for Ou Meng, they did not choose to be beaten passively, but chose to be beaten actively.
In just a few minutes, Wellington and Maxwell used hyperspace teleportation and raiders to attack Samuel's main base and technological outpost.
Unfortunately, ideals are full of hope, but reality is cruel. When faced with the long-awaited mind control troops, the Chronospace Forces defected on the spot and voluntarily entered the recycling station. The latter happened to encounter the air-ground integrated defense line composed of the Yuri statue, Artemis and the energy spacecraft, and were soon declared annihilated.
In the spirit of reciprocity, Samuel also ordered the Thunder submarine force to increase its offensive power.
Under the concentrated fire of the Thunder submarines, Ou Meng's navy disappeared like snowflakes, until one of the Thunder submarines had to return to the base for maintenance, the attack was temporarily slowed down.
At the same time, around the forward base, Samuel also arranged four or five Thunder submarines to form an encirclement outside the coastline, and as long as Ou Meng's Enterprise-class aircraft carrier and Trident battleship approached, they would immediately concentrate fire and sink them.
—————There are still twenty minutes before Ou Meng’s reinforcements arrive.
At this time, Wellington also applied for the trans-dimensional transmission of armored forces to try to destroy Samuel's forward base around the city.
However, when Ou Meng's Freedom Lion, Paladin and Slaughter Tank approached their destination, they were greeted by rows of Yuri statues and Will Defense Towers, and the attack naturally failed.
At the same time, Samuel's Thunder submarine also successfully destroyed the relatively weakly defended Statue of Victory.
————There are still ten minutes until Ou Meng’s reinforcements arrive
At this time, Samuel had completely eliminated the Meng army fleet in the central waters of the map, and the spaceship force also cooperated with the submarine force to easily eliminate the defenders of a central island.
At this time, the only thing left in the European Navy fleet was the fleet led by the Kraken, except for the warships stationed along the coastline in the west.
Samuel's response to this is very simple. He first lets the Thunder submarine wipe out the Kraken's guards, and then lets his new toy, the Brain Boat, control the mind of this big baby.
"Well done, Pagan, the threat of the Kraken has now been eliminated."
Then the next thing is to deal with the super-dimensional teleporter and the new longsword destruction mecha.
First of all, after successfully controlling the Kraken's mind, Samuel let it follow those iron balls to act as a field medical team.
The Thunder submarine force used saturation strikes to tear Wellington's positions on the coastline into pieces, and then the elite spacecraft took the opportunity to press forward and eliminate the anti-armor forces that threatened the Thunder.
Soon, General Wellington's base was turned into ruins, and his heavy industry was quickly destroyed by the Thunder submarine.
However, when attacking the super-space teleporter, Samuel was surprised to find that due to the distance, the missiles of the Thunder submarine could not reach the teleporter, so Thunder could only eliminate some of the defense towers around the teleporter.
Fortunately, Samuel had already arranged a plan B. A Shenzhou transport boat, accompanied by three iron balls and a large number of energy spacecraft, headed for the island where Wellington was.
After a large number of elite spacecraft used firepower to destroy the huge cannons and fleet on the beach, the Shenzhou transport boat also landed smoothly. Two tanks came down from it, which were Jun Huo.
Relying on the long range and area AOE damage of the super-energy magnetic explosion mental power cannon, Jun Huo attracted more than half of the guards of the long sword destruction mecha with one round of salvos. When they rushed towards Jun Huo, a large number of mental energy spaceships had been waiting for them for a long time.
While they were cleaning up the escort team, Samuel also arranged for several brain disks to rush over and prepare the mind-control sword.
At the same time, on the side of the super-time and space teleporter, as Lei Ming destroyed some of the air defense facilities, the air defense forces protecting the teleporter, in the absence of command, gradually focused all their energy on intercepting the missiles of Lei Ming's submarines, even if these missiles were only targeting the ground.
"I have to say, Istaru, looking at this spinning brain disc always reminds me of an old friend."
"You mean Bidarski, right? To be honest, this thing really looks like the Psychic Master from the COS Psychic Control Tower."
Next came the final finishing touch. In less than a minute, the space-time teleporter was destroyed, and the long sword destruction mecha was also controlled by a brain disk.
"Well done, Pagan. Now Ou Meng's military power on the continent has been completely destroyed. Now no one can stop our offensive on the European continent."
Without these super weapons and new equipment, the leaderless European Meng Army was soon controlled by Yuri using the Psychic Beacon, and even those Meng Army troops that came to the Aegean Sea for support were no exception.
After this battle, Ou Meng lost the opportunity to confront Epsilon head-on on the mainland, and their hope of returning to attack the mainland also turned into nothing.
After this battle, in order to reduce unnecessary losses, the European and American leaders ordered the few remaining troops on the mainland to abandon their original positions and return to the British Isles.
