Let you change the Hongqi h9, not the Hongqi missile vehicle

Chapter 732 Just in case
Based on their advance, they should be able to reach Jiang Chen's designated area by noon on the second day and complete the control of the entire territory. In other words, Jiang Chen only has half a day left. He must hold on for half a day, and the reinforcements from the Dragon Kingdom must arrive in time. Otherwise, this battle will end in failure, and even a miracle will not save it.

As time went by, Huanglong faced increasing pressure, a pressure that felt suffocating, as the United Nations' offensive intensified and became more rapid with each attack. They even deployed numerous off-road vehicles in an effort to expedite the breaching of Dongzhou's defenses.

The pace of the battle was suffocating, and Jiang Chen's total forces had plummeted from over 80,000 to just over 30,000, with nearly 50,000 dying on the battlefield.

Most importantly, this time even the rear-line communications soldiers, logistics soldiers, and even reserves have been put to use. Apart from these 30,000 defeated soldiers, they have no way to spare any more troops to resist.

The defensive line is now contracting at an alarming rate. Although they are still fighting desperately, their bodies are no match for the machines. Jiang Chen could hear the sound of intense artillery fire from a great distance, clearly indicating that the enemy was about to reach him.

"Commander Jiang Chen, let's go quickly. We can't stay here any longer. It's too dangerous here. As long as we're alive, we can always rebuild. You can't get hurt, or everything will be over."

At this moment, Huang Long was also extremely anxious. It didn't matter if he died, but Jiang Chen couldn't die. This man was their last guarantee. Even if the entire space city was destroyed, it didn't matter. Jiang Chen had to survive. Now was not the time to play the hero.

"What a joke! Where do we go? The enemy has completely surrounded us. Now we have no choice but to fight to the death and wait for rescue. Otherwise, none of us will survive. Call up our last three special forces units. I will personally confront the enemy and at least break through their blockade."

Jiang Chen quickly went to the virtual battle map on the map. Whenever the enemy further attacked their defense line and occupied their positions, Jiang Chen would mark it on the map in time.

"They've now formed a long, straight line formation. This formation is quite interesting. My idea is to cut off the head and tail and take the middle. If this plan succeeds, it will at least buy us about half a day to wait for reinforcements. So you will lead a special forces unit, and the other special forces unit will prepare their own weapons and equipment. The three of us will work together to break through the enemy's long, straight line formation, making it difficult for them to defend both ends and disconnecting the middle. Our main force will then break through their blockade and disrupt their formation."

Huang Long was extremely anxious at this moment, but Jiang Chen remained calm and composed. Even at this critical juncture, he was able to stay calm and make final arrangements. This calmed Huang Long down as well, and he couldn't help but admire Jiang Chen. He was indeed a man who had experienced so many trials and tribulations. Even with the enemy's guns pointed at his doorstep, he was still able to calmly deploy tactics. It was impossible not to admire him.

"Did you understand? Do as I say right now."

Jiang Chen said calmly.

"Does Battalion Commander Jiang Chen really intend to do this?"

Although Jiang Chen's plan was excellent, Huang Long was only thinking about Jiang Chen's safety at the moment, nothing else mattered.

Even though Jiang Chen was 90% sure of winning the battle, Huang Long was still panicked. Why had things turned out this way?

"Unless you have a better solution, don't say anything more."

As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Long stopped wasting time and quickly began to prepare according to Jiang Chen's instructions.

Their reserves also include three special forces units, with the elite special forces unit at the head and the strongest, named the Elite Unit. They are the most elite special operations team in Dongzhou, and were personally promoted and carefully trained by Jia Leijie. Their combat power is extremely formidable. Of course, there are only eight of them, but each of them can take on a hundred men. These elites are not easily used unless absolutely necessary. Even when the battle was so intense, Jiang Chen did not send these elite special forces units to the front line. At most, he had them carry out sniping missions in the rear, and then some special missions that were difficult but not life-threatening. That was all.

Now that these elite troops have been sent to the front lines, it's clear that the situation has reached a dead end. All Jiang Chen can do now is put up a final stand.

At this moment, Meng Tianshi stood behind Jiang Chen without saying a word, quietly listening to Jiang Chen make these arrangements. For some reason, Meng Tianshi felt that Jiang Chen had a special kind of magic. It was as if just by standing there, even without saying a word, a single glance from him could reassure his teammates. His back was so solid and reliable. Perhaps this was the true charm of a man.

"You just stay here obediently and don't go anywhere. If you are caught, just tell them you are my woman. No one will dare to make things difficult for you. They will safely send you back to China."

Jiang Chen said calmly.

"No, if you are really captured or die on the battlefield, they will never be able to catch me. All they will get is my corpse."

Meng Tianshi's gaze toward Jiang Chen grew increasingly resolute.

"Hehe, it seems I really underestimated you. It's a pity that anyone can talk big. Alright, you can just watch from here."

Jiang Chen didn't take those words seriously and quickly picked up his equipment and weapons and headed to the front line.

Meanwhile, Huang Long had already assembled three of his most elite teams, with the ace unit naturally reserved for Jiang Chen. All three units carried the first-generation Destiny series armor, which Jiang Chen had left behind as a precaution, and now it was actually being used.

Jiang Chen is to carry out the most difficult mission, the head-cutting operation, while Huang Long is responsible for the tail-cutting operation. The remaining force will break through from the middle when the opportunity arises. The difficulty level is relatively low because Jiang Chen's head-cutting operation and Huang Long's tail-cutting operation need to work together to inflict damage on the enemy at the same time before the middle assault can be launched.

"Brothers, this battle is quite dangerous and difficult. Unlike previous special operations, our enemy numbers are enormous, and their weaponry is advanced. Our only advantage is to use the jungle as cover to wage guerrilla warfare against them. We not only need to delay their advance but also annihilate most of their main force. All of us could very well lose our lives because of this." Jiang Chen looked at the eight well-equipped armored soldiers in front of him and said calmly. Although these armors were of low grade, they were still quite offensive. Unfortunately, their flexibility in all aspects was far inferior to the latest generation. Overall, they could only be considered decent.

"Hehe, even Battalion Commander Jiang Chen is personally going to the battlefield, what do we have to be afraid of? Even if we die, it's worth it."

"That's right, even if I really die, I'll take a few people down with me."

These team members had incredibly determined eyes, were fearless, and gripped their weapons tightly, waiting for Jiang Chen's orders at any moment.

“Very good, that’s the kind of determination I need. I won’t say anything more. Proceed according to plan. You are all the elite of the elite. I don’t need to teach you how to fight and annihilate the enemy.”

After a brief pre-battle mobilization, everyone quickly boarded off-road vehicles and set off for the jungle area. The strategy for this battle was guerrilla warfare; they wanted to slow down the enemy's advance, then find a suitable opportunity to eliminate most of the enemy's manpower and stop their offensive.

As for those combat robots, Jiang Chen was also eager to see just how powerful they were. Meanwhile, Huang Long and another special forces unit were conducting pre-battle mobilization, not saying much, and setting off early to prepare.

After arriving in the jungle, Jiang Chen and the others found their own positions to ambush the enemy. The sound of gunfire was getting closer and closer. They were only about 60 kilometers away from the Dongzhou front-line command post. However, because it was a mountain road, the terrain was rugged, and the enemy was unable to form an encirclement so quickly.

In fact, Dongzhou's area is both large and small. Jiang Chen believes that their encirclement tactics have both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it can achieve maximum encirclement, and in the end, relying on the advantages of mountains and jungles, it can form a multi-pronged covert attack. If it really comes to that, no matter what kind of super armor it is, it will be difficult to withstand the terrifying offensive, and the battle will be a complete failure. No matter how many reinforcements the Dragon Kingdom sends, it will be useless.

Therefore, they must keep the enemy out of the mountains. The downside of a full encirclement is that the rugged terrain will slow down the advance and reduce the speed of action. So this place is very suitable for guerrilla warfare, especially regional operations that special forces are good at.

"Everyone, go your own way. I have only one goal: to eliminate all the enemies and armed forces you see in front of you, and finally meet up in area 331 to strike and threaten the enemies on other positions."

Jiang Chen spoke to everyone through a special Bluetooth walkie-talkie, and the others didn't say anything more.

"receive."

"receive."

"Received, I have arrived at the designated location."

……

"I never imagined that after so long, I would be back on the front lines."

Looking at the jungle environment before him and the constant explosions of artillery shells around him, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh and smile. He was quite emotional. As the commander of the Space City Battalion, he possessed all the high technology and his feat of fighting against the entire United States single-handedly was unparalleled in the world. Yet now he still couldn't escape the predicament of this primitive warfare.

"Could it be that there is some kind of curse on this Eastern Continent? Even my rule cannot be stabilized. It seems that this place has always been a place of long-term chaos and war."

Jiang Chen was initially quite confident. He believed that with his powerful skills, formidable technological strength, and military might, ruling Dongzhou would restore peace and prosperity to the region, allowing its people to live and enjoy a good life. This was not a difficult task. However, it now seemed that the curse was truly vicious. After all, Jiang Chen had already fought several tough battles here, winning by the skin of his teeth, with luck playing a significant role. Otherwise, he would have suffered a crushing defeat in the previous battle. Now, he was in this predicament, and the most dangerous one at that. Space City could no longer send any reinforcements, and the Dragon Kingdom was waiting for an opportunity, with only half a day to arrive. No one knew if they could successfully reach the capital. Even if the Dragon Kingdom's reinforcements arrived, they could only hold out for a short time. Moreover, with so many enemies, a well-thought-out plan was needed in a short period of time, along with a protracted war to wear down the enemy's strength.

At this moment, Jiang Chen also felt a lot of pressure. If he really lost this time, he would accept it. The long-term resource planning would have to be postponed. Moreover, it would be impossible to mine resources in an orderly manner in Dongzhou, because it would become a meat grinder of war, a living hell, and it would never end. After all, even Jiang Chen could not protect his own peace, so there was no need for others to say anything more.

"Brothers, the enemy is coming."

With his mind at ease, Jiang Chen's gaze turned coldly to the depths of the jungle ahead, where a series of sparse sounds could be heard. Although he had been away from the battlefield for a long time, Jiang Chen's senses were still very sharp. Even from a kilometer away, he could catch these messages in time. The others were also ready for battle.

As the enemy drew closer, Jiang Chen and his group realized that their numbers were considerable, numbering over a thousand, and equipped with heavy weapons such as tanks. Although navigating the rugged mountain paths was difficult, they rampaged through the enemy, knocking down numerous trees. With war robots clearing the way ahead, these robots, even more terrifying than tanks, were humanoid in shape and made entirely of black gold. Their arms, like two saw teeth, slashed wildly at the trees. In no time, the primeval jungle was leveled. Jiang Chen also keenly observed that these robots were multifunctional, which explained their previous setbacks on the front lines. Compared to mechanical armor, these war robots were not far behind, and combined with their sheer numbers, they were unstoppable.

"Hehe, Battalion Commander Jiang Chen is right, it really is going to be a tough battle. Brothers, get ready and let's fight."

At this moment, the other team members smiled faintly. As the enemy approached, they didn't waste any words. They raised the arms of their mechanical armor and unleashed a barrage of firepower.

"Boom boom boom!"
