Chapter 70 Tactical transition
When he heard that Isabel was also in the armored vehicle, Amber was really surprised. He really didn't expect that the female spy would be so desperate.
"No, Captain, why did she escape into this armored vehicle?"
Amber rushed over immediately, then temporarily put Randall and Tom on the ground, ready to help save people .
“Sir, the commander of this car went to relieve himself in the woods, but when the Empire HCP launched the attack, he was killed before he could get into the car”
The mobile infantry running in front was slightly shocked by Amber's operation of fighting against two people, and then continued:
"Just seeing you in danger, Captain Margaret ran to the car. Responsible for controlling the chain gun, and then rushed out together."
"Huh? The captain can also operate the chain gun?"
After hearing what the mobile infantry said, Amber didn't know what to do for a moment. say what.
For Isabel, Amber has always treated her with a temporary cooperation mentality.
After all, the other party's identity is a spy of the Star Dragon Empire, and he also comes from a noble family.
In terms of ideology, compared to Amber, it can be said that he does not live on the same plane at all.
So Amber has always been careful to keep a distance from Isabel, and at most she occasionally pinches her face.
Some of the interactions between the two parties seemed more like some kind of 'playing on the spot' in Amber's opinion.
But now that she heard that this girl dared to sit in an armored vehicle and charge an HCP, Amber suddenly felt that the actual situation was different from what she thought?
"Master, your heart rate has increased."
Lilith's voice suddenly appeared in her mind. After being temporarily stored in the microprocessor behind Amber's neck, Lilith could speak without even using headphones. Let Amber hear her voice directly.
At this moment, the AI’s voice was filled with a hint of joking.
"I'm tired from carrying two navy pigs for such a long distance! Don't think about it there."
Amber's face didn't change, and she just said it in her mind Lilith communicates.
"Master~Did I say anything? I just reminded you that your heart rate has increased. Do you have something secret in your heart that makes you think I'm thinking about something else?"
Since I called Amber 'Master' once before , Lilith doesn’t seem to be planning to adjust her title.
But to Amber at this moment, this tone made him want to drag Lilith to the real world, and then press her on his knees to punish her.
Unfortunately, he can't do it for the time being, and he can't shut this guy down yet.
After storing it in her microprocessor, Amber discovered that Lilith was directly connected to her nerves and brain through the superconducting fibers in her body.
Unless he turns off the microprocessor, there's really no way to quiet this guy down.
"I was careless, I will definitely change the processor in the future"
ignoring Lilith's thoughts in her mind such as, 'I just leveled A, why did you hand in the ultimate move? ’ and other taunts, Amber walked to the side of the armored vehicle.
He and the two motorized infantrymen watched for a long time and found that in the previous battle, several hatches of the armored vehicle had deformed to a certain extent during the impact and rolling process, which would make it impossible to pass through normally. The pathway is open.
“What kind of quality is this? It’s outrageous.”
Amber frowned as if doing embroidery, and released a psychic blast, shattering the connection points at the tail hatch.
Two mobile infantrymen immediately stepped forward, slightly increased the power of the exoskeleton, and removed the entire tail hatch.
Amber, who was relatively flexible, immediately got in. After first confirming that the driver's condition and vital signs were stable, he opened the driver's hatch from the inside, and then carefully removed the unconscious man. The pilot sent him out through the cabin door.
Then, he returned to the captain's seat at the back and took Isabel out of the captain's seat.
Fortunately, the lady remembered to put on her driving helmet and fasten her cross seat belt. Although she fell to pieces with the armored vehicle, she seemed to have just fainted.
The space inside the armored vehicle was not very large, so Amber turned around and dragged Isabel to the door of the tail cabin, and then carried the female spy out in a princess hug.
At this moment, a series of screams came from the sky.
Amber looked up and saw dozens of rockets dragging long trails across the sky, finally landing in the mountains and forests in the northeast, bursting out with bursts of fire. A moment later, the loud sound of a plasma rocket hitting the ground and exploding came. Isabel in Amber's arms seemed to be awakened by the sound. She said softly, "Hmm~", and then slowly opened her eyes.
When she saw Amber hugging her, her eyes lit up at first, and then dimmed.
"Amber, it turns out you are dead too"
"."
Amber was speechless for a moment. He reached out and pinched Isabel's face with a little force.
“Bah, bah, bah, what a crow’s mouth! Neither of us are dead yet!”
“Ah, it hurts, it hurts!”
Isabel instantly put on a mask of pain.
"As long as you know the pain, can you still move around? The long-range fire cover from the friendly forces has just landed. We must seize the time to retreat from here."
Amber glanced at the forest in the distance. With the fire already ignited, he knew that the time that a wildfire alone could delay was limited.
"Put me down, and I'll try to see if I can still walk."
Isabel, whose face was slightly red, struggled to stand up from Amber's 'princess hug', but when I felt dizzy when my feet touched the ground and I almost fell to the ground.
Obviously, the whole person has not recovered from the impact and roll just now.
"Dede, don't be so pushy."
Amber, who didn't want to waste any more time, was just about to lift Isabel up when she suddenly thought of two people lying on the ground.
But at this time, the other two mobile infantrymen quickly understood the meaning of the phrase 'pay attention to the timing of entry'.
They didn’t even need to communicate. They carried Randall and Tom on their shoulders one by one in a tacit understanding. Then they took off a folding stretcher mounted on their backs and unfolded it to lift the armored vehicle driver. Put it up.
One of the mobile infantry looked at Amber and said resolutely:
"Sir, you are responsible for carrying Captain Margaret. We both wear exoskeletons, so it is completely useless to carry the three of them. Question!"
After saying that, the two men strode directly towards the evacuation direction with the three wounded.
Amber carried Isabel on her back and endured Lilith's constant "Who is this woman?" ’, ‘What’s her relationship with you? ’ and other inquiries, he and the other two motorized infantry quickly rushed to the temporary assembly point of their remaining soldiers.
After checking the personnel situation in the command interface and confirming that all the people who were still alive and able to move had arrived, Amber took the remaining people and set off in the direction of friendly forces.
After this battle, Amber's remnant soldiers could be said to have become "the remnant soldiers among the remnant soldiers" and suffered heavy losses.
In terms of vehicles, there are only four armored vehicles and two transport trucks left, and in terms of number of people, there are only 42 people left, including more than a dozen wounded.
The luckiest thing in this misfortune may be that the transport truck carrying the 'Breaker 2' exoskeleton survived.
After weighing for a moment, Amber only retained the minimum fuel, ammunition, food reserves, a full amount of medical supplies and drinking water, and brought the 'Breaker 2'.
The remaining supplies were discarded directly on the spot, so that the free transport trucks could carry all the wounded.
The other soldiers who could move squeezed into the armored vehicle with Amber.
For this reason, several mobile infantrymen had to temporarily take off their exoskeleton and throw it into the transport truck, and then they reluctantly allowed everyone to enter the vehicle.
Amber and the others quickly set off again, heading towards the planned evacuation position 45 kilometers away, where there was already a leading force of friendly forces waiting to respond.
Not long after the convoy left, violent explosions came from the woodland where they had fought and the area where they had just assembled.
Amber looked behind through the commander's mirror and saw several huge mushroom clouds rising into the sky.
