"But! You can't blow up the bridge!" Zeng Xia urgently said the news of the 17th Brigade asking for help: "The 17th Brigade is already approaching us, and it is now on the highway. If the bridge blows up, they will undoubtedly be sold! "
"They are a mechanical armored brigade, and there is still time to turn around now. I will tell them." The lieutenant colonel said that this is not a problem.
"But they escorted citizens, tens of thousands of people. And their communication equipment failed, so they could only send one-sided telegram information." Li Tian said.
"..." The lieutenant colonel was silent again.
He asked with a trembling voice: "What is the 17th Brigade trying to do? The Armored Brigade put aside its mobility and took a group of non-combatant civilians to a dangerous area. They will be court-martialed for doing so!"
There is no doubt that the 17th brigade's approach is no different from holding civilians to force the military region to submit.
That's why the lieutenant colonel was so angry. He rushed over to meet up earlier, so he wouldn't blow up the bridge.
If their hundreds of chariots can come to Goose City University, they will be smashed by the monsters directly!Nai He has been procrastinating.
"If they rush over directly, what will the common people do? Let them die immediately?" Li Tiansuo asked sharply in a calm tone: "In the entire Eastern District, they are only saving people, and you must know what is going on in the Eastern District. .”
Monsters will spawn crazily in places with more troops.In other words, the more armed you are and the more people you have, the more bastards you will spawn.
Why did the 17th brigade not merge with the combat power in the city?It's just being dragged down, they have to save people and fight the enemy at the same time, there is really no way.
"But the order is for them to join us!"
"But they made a judgment in line with the order."
"Comrade Li Tiansuo, I shouldn't discuss this now, but I have to tell the people of the 17th Brigade that they cannot cross the bridge!" The lieutenant colonel gave up his plan to argue with Li Tian.
"Let them go to Guancheng! There is a complete military headquarters and defense there."
What is there to discuss with a student, now it is a matter of delaying the battle!If the bridge is not broken and monsters flood in, who is responsible for this?
"But the common people have to live! They are following the 17th brigade now, how do you tell them to change their route? It is farther from the east district to Guancheng than crossing the bridge to us!"
"Don't talk to me about orders or not. The 17th Brigade saved them when they needed it most. They are not stupid. Where else can they go if they don't follow the 17th Brigade?"
"They are human beings, they want to live and they want to live!"
"Or do you want to say, give up on them? Let the 17th Brigade run by itself? Do you think they will do this?"
"..." The lieutenant colonel did not speak.
After a full minute or so.
The lieutenant colonel who seemed to choose to compromise asked calmly: "What do I need to do? I can do anything for the 17th Brigade other than sending reinforcements."
"A batch of supplies needs to be airdropped, tents and food for at least 5 people, located in the martyrs cemetery, and then ammunition supplies from two battalions will be sent to the 17th brigade."
"Change the air attack that blows up the bridge to air support. After the 17th brigade is ready, we will cut off the rear for them. If the 17th brigade can reach us safely, then the bridge can be kept."
"Such conditions..."
Li Tian asked earnestly with a pleading tone: "Excuse me?"
"Okay!" The lieutenant colonel agreed without even thinking about it, which was actually a very excessive question.
Tens of thousands of lives, no one will sit idly by!This is the vital force of the country in the future. Materials can be reproduced and replenished, but the population cannot.
In the last days, there is no resource more precious than human life.
"Just wait a moment, the military department just happened to send us a batch of airdrops, so I sent them to you first. As for the ammunition and equipment, I will try my best to apply for this."
"Then let's do this first, thank you for your hard work."
Communication ends.
"I'll go to the bridge to see the situation and see how to prepare for the 17th Brigade at night. Help me prepare food for the civilians. If it's not enough, I'll exchange it at the Obelisk. I'll leave it to you first." Li Tian patted Zeng Xia's shoulders turned and walked into the rainy sky.
Chapter 83 Bridgehead Arming
The situation on the expressway was far worse than Li Tian thought. There was no terrain to rely on, and the fortifications that could be expanded were limited.Because this place is no better than the last time the hospital can transform the terrain.
It's all cement roads, and digging down is tantamount to making yourself uncomfortable.What's more, it's the bridge deck, which is really engaged in trench fortifications, and it will collapse for you in minutes.
What's more, the 17th Brigade that needs to respond is an armored assault brigade, and the integrity of the bridge deck must be ensured, otherwise their heavy firepower will not be able to come over.
Therefore, with regard to the defensive layout of the cross-river bridge and expressway, we can only adopt bunker fortifications, build a checkpoint at the head of the bridge and wait for the 17th brigade to come, and then withdraw the things to welcome the armored vehicles.
As for this defensive suggestion, after being approved by Squad Leader Zeng Xia, all members of No. 40 quickly mobilized after finishing the work of setting up the camp, piled enough sandbags and filled the explosion-proof wall to the brim.
The explosion-proof wall dropped by the battalion headquarters is a good thing. As long as it is opened and filled with soil, the wall is connected with the wall, and a simple fortress is built in less than half a day.
It can resist floods and explosions, and the soil inside can be removed at any time after use. There is nothing more convenient and useful than this.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, to the extent that the sight is restricted, and the howling wind is like a cold blade on your face.But no one stopped, they seized the time to strengthen the bridgehead position.
If this position is built, no matter whether the 17th Brigade arrives on time or not, as long as there is a monster who dares to appear on the bridge deck, you will be raised in minutes.
Because there are four light and heavy machine guns deployed in the bridgehead position, no matter what you come, all beings are equal at 12.7mm, even armored units can be worn by you.
"Squad leader! The military department said to airdrop a platoon of cooks over here, and the revision proposal submitted by the battalion commander this morning has been passed!"
The signal soldier who had been trying to contact the 17th Brigade again all day suddenly brought good news.
"Really!" Zeng Xia said happily as he checked the map with the help of a weak emergency light box.
The most troublesome thing everyone has to face now is the lack of power supply. Not only is there no electricity or lights in the Martyrs Cemetery, but the entire area around here has lost power supply.
Originally, rainy days and nights were bad enough, but now that there is no light or electricity, and you are preparing for the battle in a state of high spirits, it can't kill people.
"It is expected to land at seven o'clock tonight. We have to set up airborne guidance for friendly forces." The signalman nodded.
"Then I'll ask someone to set up a landing beacon." Zeng Xia remembered that there were still several boxes of cold fireworks signal sticks in the supply truck.
If you dare to parachute down at night in this weather, you must support the brothers in the cooking platoon!With them, the food and drink problems of tens of thousands of people can be solved.
Now the martyrs cemetery is in a very strange predicament. There are materials and weapons, but there is no one, and the problem of food and drink is completely too late to fix.
Because everyone has gone to work, and when they come back from work, they may not be in the mood to eat whole.
The arrival of the cooking row perfectly solved this problem, as long as they lowered down, they could use the existing materials to prepare food immediately.
In this way, not only the soldiers on defense can eat good food, but also the 17th brigade and tens of thousands of civilians who are coming at any time can also solve the problem of food.
"Squad leader, remember to give this to Comrade Li Tiansuo after reading it. The battalion commander asked me to hand it over to you." The communications soldier handed a piece of A4 paper to Zeng Xia who was about to run away.
"What?" Zeng Xia took the paper and read the contents in three or five clicks.
Ok……
It seems that the military does not completely trust the battalion commander and Li Tiansuo, but this is good news.
"Let me know as soon as there is any news." Zeng Xia, who put the document in his pocket, put on his hood and gas mask and rushed out of the tent with a flashlight.
At the head of the cross-river bridge, after nearly three hours of hard work, Li Tiansuo and others finally established a line that can barely be seen. Now they just need to throw barbed wire and roadblocks outside the blast-proof wall, and everyone will wait in place. That's it.
Thanks to the goddamn rain, the whole bridge never bottomed out.Once the viewing distance exceeds 20 meters, it is like an abyss and cannot be observed with the naked eye.
Under the action of the strong wind, the river made a rustling sound similar to the roar of wild animals. Every time it rolled over, it would give people the illusion that there were monsters nearby.
Or you always feel that there are some ghosts, ghosts or ghosts floating around.
But fortunately, the martyrs cemetery behind gave everyone a sense of security.Because compared with the bridge in front, the martyrs cemetery behind is as warm as home.Because the people who sleep here are all old seniors who will protect everyone.
Even if it is really haunted, they will definitely rush out and beat the ghost to the ground immediately.
"Big brother, don't you want to come in and have a fire? Keli makes the fire super warm!" Keli asked, who used fire elements to increase the temperature of the fire.
"Yeah!" Lily nodded happily while toasting the cotton candy Li Tian gave her.
"No, you can just hide from the rain inside." Li Tiansuo thanked Keli for her kindness and continued to dispatch the soldiers to arrange the fortifications.
Although the frontline environment is harsh, it does not mean that everyone has to work in the rain. You can temporarily build a few tents for shelter from the rain. If you are sleepy and tired, you can come in and have a drink of ginger soup for a while.
Many of the soldiers who had been busy all day couldn't bear the severe cold and rain to come in to rest their feet. This kind of temperature combined with the rain caused rapid physical exertion, which was not something ordinary people could withstand.
Of course, some people can't stand it, and some people can.For example, there are chariots, the Krieg Death Corps and Catachan Jungle Fighters. They have never heard of them since they started working. Their movements are more and more agile, just like natural cattle and horses.
"Ulla! Comrades! Work harder! Don't let the Emperor down!" The chariot that seemed to be on the top speeded up the deployment of the barbed wire after drinking a glass of vodka.
"!!" Krieger's death corps followed in silence to speed up their progress.
Although the fighters carrying the sandbags did not speak, their speed was obviously increased. In just half a day, the bold and cautious chariot conquered them with its own personality charm.
No one will reject this big brother who is nice to talk and easy to get along with.
Let's just admit this political commissar appointed by the emperor.
"Will they really come?" Aila, who had been standing beside Li Tiansuo under the impact of the rain, asked curiously.
Li Tiansuo looked at the other side of the bridge and nodded: "Yes, they will come."
"But what if you don't come?"
"Then blow up the bridge according to the order of the military department, but I believe they will come on time."
I have to ask why, it is probably because their beliefs are worthy of Li Tian's trust, and the 17th Brigade has done this in the face of powerful enemies and the common people, and it is impossible to dove everyone.
Unless they were wiped out halfway, Li Tiansuo couldn't think of any circumstances under which they couldn't arrive.
"VIP! This is what Squad Leader Zeng Xia asked me to give you." Ashes hurriedly ran to Li Tiansuo and handed over the document: "It said it was a private secret report from the Lieutenant Colonel of the Battalion Department, after reading it." Remember to destroy."
"Private secret report?" Li Tiansuo took the folded paper and hid in the tent.
"Besides, Squad Leader Zeng Xia also asked me to tell you that there will be a platoon of cooks and soldiers and a batch of supplies airdropped at seven o'clock, we just concentrate on deploying defenses." Ashes then brought a piece of good news.
"Good thing!" Li Tiansuo opened the paper while sitting next to the huddled Ibrahimovic.
Chapter 84 Career Change Advice
The content of the document was not very long. In less than a minute, Li Tiansuo finished reading what the lieutenant colonel wanted to tell him.Then, in silence, he threw the document into the fire and burned it.
The superiors agreed with Li Tiansuo's request, but not completely. The air attack on the cross-river bridge will continue as usual.
Once it is confirmed that the 17th Brigade failed to reach the city at two o'clock in the morning on time, the fighters will bomb the bridge.
But if the 17th brigade comes, the fighters will become air support. If nothing else, the fighters will set off at 12 o'clock in the morning, and then decide whether to destroy the bridge according to the situation.
The military department will temporarily change its attention. According to the lieutenant colonel, it is because the mayor of Goose City helped to get the opportunity correctly through a video conference.
At the same time, it is also thanks to him that a large number of resources and a platoon of fighters will land with the airdrop.
In other words, both the 17th Brigade and Li Tiansuo owed the mayor a favor. Without him, it would be impossible for the superiors to agree so quickly, let alone arrange the supplies so quickly.
Proper hint.
Although Li Tiansuo didn't stay in the powerful class for a long time, he still understands some people's sophistication. Isn't it obvious why a mayor chooses to help him?
Whether it was because of letting him save him or for other reasons, the quagmire that Li Tian didn't want to be involved in was still dragged in.
It's as if you avoided going to the Beast Mansion to trigger the event by refusing, but on the way home, you were beaten and twisted by Shushu and sent to the House of Love.
Tsk!It's so frustrating.
"Big brother, are you unhappy?" Ke Li handed the hot egg to Li Tiansuo, and said with a smile, "This is for big brother."
"Thank you, Keli." Li Tiansuo smiled after taking the boiled egg.
do not care.
Finish the matter at hand first.
To save or not to save, it all depends on whether there is enough time.But Li Tiansuo is a real person, and he will repay the favor he owes no matter what.
This is the basic morality of being a human being.
"Shenhuang, I found a strange creature near the cemetery." Ma Bo, covered in rain, held a sword in one hand and a wronged earth dog in the other.
"Ugh..."
"?" Li Tian, who was peeling eggs, was stunned.
Damn it, when did Ma Bo come in?Why don't you feel anything?I'm afraid he turned on stealth, right?
"Dog?" Keli walked over and patted the dog's head with her hand.
"What do you say? Are you going to kill him?" Marbo asked.
He had been collecting more wood according to the chariot's instructions, but he didn't expect to meet such a sneaky creature. If he hadn't seen the army dog tag on it, Marbo might have killed it directly.
To be on the safe side, he chose to bring it back and show it to Li Tiansuo.
Maybe the great God-Emperor will be happy about it.
"This dog..." Li Tiansuo looked at the metal identification number on the dog's neck and immediately recognized it as the dog raised by the veteran soldier.
