We promised to develop a game called Candy Crush, what the hell is the Third Reich?

Chapter 99, Episode 032: The Great Xia Federation: Shameful! Shameful!!! (4k)

However.
After saying that, the soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Brigade couldn't help but feel a sense of despair.

Why do we have to run here too?!
More than 40 kilometers!
Shen Yan had no other choice; everything was assigned randomly. Now that the train had been blown up, he had no choice but to walk. He opened the virtual map and glanced at it. At that moment, a red dot on the virtual map fell down.

The other 31 units are also different.

Some have already been attacked, and the signs indicate that the number of personnel has been drastically reduced, with two-thirds gone.

Some were eliminated outright; the entire unit was wiped out in an instant. Shen Yan counted, and a total of four units were wiped out in a flash. Without a doubt, they were bombed by the Republic's Blue Army brigade with nuclear weapons.

A smile involuntarily appeared on Shen Yan's face. It was indeed better to have more people around.

The chances of being hit by a nuclear bomb would be much smaller.

Sudden.

The virtual map in front of everyone began to flicker, as if there were network fluctuations.

After flashing for a few seconds...

The virtual map suddenly disappeared and couldn't be reopened, leaving Shen Yan completely baffled.

"what's the situation?"

After trying several times without success...

I had no choice but to rummage through my backpack, and sure enough, I found a physical map:
"Everyone!"

"Electronic devices silent, armed assault!"

The 7th Special Operations Brigade, consisting of several hundred men, ran towards the Blue Army Brigade, following the directions on the physical map.

What Shen Yan didn't know was that not only his virtual map was inaccessible, but the virtual maps of other Blue Star forces were also inaccessible.

the other side.

Near the Inner Mongolian Plain, by a river.

Blue Star, Northern Army.

The soldiers of the electronic warfare brigade are operating equipment that was announced by the Great Xia Federation on Blue Star in earlier years. This equipment was all materialized by Zhao Ming based on the information he collected.

Other Blue Star forces also have a mix of outdated Blue Star equipment and 'Earth' equipment.

As for why the latest version isn't used...
Zhao Ming did want to, but the information he had collected was limited, and besides, the Federal Army couldn't reveal military secrets to someone who made games.

All that can be found are outdated equipment.

Although it is outdated, it still allows the soldiers of the electronic warfare brigade to become proficient in counter-reconnaissance. Right now, the equipment on 'Earth' is left aside, and the soldiers of the electronic warfare brigade are skillfully operating the old Blue Star equipment.

Counter-surveillance and intrusion operations are being launched targeting networks and signals.

Inside the camp.

The sound of tapping on the device continued, and a warning flashed on the screen.

drop--!
An alarm sounded inside the carriage, and the soldiers of the electronic warfare brigade communicated in an orderly manner.

"The Blue Army brigade has activated full-band jamming!"

"All satellite links have been interrupted."

"Hijacking successful. We've located their command system."

"Generating a disguised command signal."

"The other side has activated interference."

"The system intrusion is still a bit short; let's make our move."

zizi——

A crackling sound of electricity filled the air, and a battalion commander from the electronic warfare brigade looked surprised.
"The other side has shut down all its equipment."

Blue Star's technology and equipment were already several years ahead of Earth's. Even the outdated equipment that Blue Star had phased out was a devastating blow against Earth's equipment. The electronic warfare between the two sides lasted only a few minutes.

The electronic warfare brigade on Blue Star's side has already bypassed the blockade and infiltrated the system.

But to our surprise, the opposing Blue Army brigade was so decisive that they shut down all their equipment.

"Huh? The virtual map won't open either."

"What happened? It was working fine a moment ago."

"I don't know, maybe it's related to the confrontation? Now that we've lost the signal source, we're not fighting with our eyes closed."

"Does anyone remember the route we just took? Which unit was closest to us?"

"Reporting to the brigade commander, it is the rocket brigade of the 2nd Armored Army, in the southeast direction."

"Turn around and meet up with them over there."

the other side.

Northern Army, Second Army Group, Chemical Defense Brigade.

The convoy traveled along the highways of the Inner Mongolian plains, heading towards the location of the Blue Army Brigade.

Sudden.

A dense swarm of tiny black dots fell down ahead of the road, and then fell with them.

Boom boom boom boom—!!

The entire area in front of the highway was covered by the explosion.

The chemical defense brigade immediately stopped the vehicle. Unsure of the situation, the brigade commander ordered everyone to put on their protective suits and looked at the crashed drone ahead, a look of confusion flashing in his eyes.

"what's the situation?"

"Could it be some kind of chemical weapon?"

After all, if it were a bomb attack, there would be no need to bomb from this far away.

Everyone was on high alert, bracing for an explosion in the distance.

Only after the explosions stopped and all was quiet for a while did the chemical defense brigade cautiously approach with their detection equipment to investigate.

Outside the copy.

The headquarters of the Northern Army.

The meeting room was filled with high-ranking officers from numerous army groups and generals.

Looking at how cautious the chemical defense brigade was.

The commander of the Second Army Group turned pale. A simple bomb, and he was so scared. This is incredibly embarrassing!

The other people in the meeting room also had strange expressions.

The large screen in the conference room was clearly visible. Due to the operation of the electronic warfare brigade, the equipment on the 'Earth' side was no match for that on the Blue Star side. Therefore, after being counter-intruded by the Blue Star, all equipment was immediately cut off.

Meanwhile, the drone swarm that was originally intended to attack the chemical defense brigade also crashed because it lost control.

Then came the scene of the chemical defense brigade soldiers being so cautious.
As the footage from other units switched, some problems gradually came to light, the most critical being a lack of caution.

Due to the electronic warfare that caused both sides to lose their coordinates, the people in the instance are still heading towards the center of the Inner Mongolian grasslands, while the Blue Army brigade, which was originally located in the center, has already started to move.

The main force rushed toward the electronic warfare brigade.

However, because the electronic warfare brigade wanted to join forces with the rocket brigade, the two sides were slightly separated, but the distance on the map was not large. It was now a true 1v28 situation.

After one hour.

The electronic warfare brigade, which has already joined forces with the rocket brigade, has just begun its march towards the Inner Mongolian plains.

A sharp whistling sound and a rumbling noise suddenly came from the sky.

Everyone jumped out of the vehicle in fright, some of the soldiers from the electronic warfare brigade filled with disbelief:
"Impossible?!"

"The other side's equipment isn't even turned on, how did they locate us?!"

However, all they received in response was intense bombing.

In an instant, half of the convoy was destroyed, including the missile vehicles that detonated the rocket brigade itself. The convoy was immediately engulfed in flames, and the soldiers hiding on both sides of the road could only watch helplessly.

At this time.

A slight tremor came from the ground.

boom--

A muffled thud came from afar; a shell hit the lead vehicle directly, penetrating its front and exploding with a bang.

"11 o'clock!!!" Boom! Boom! Boom!
A barrage of tank shells struck the area in front of and in the middle of where the Blue Star soldiers were gathered.

Regardless of whether the command system was destroyed or not, the Blue Army brigade's tanks had already surrounded them.

However, the rocket brigade's heavy weapons were completely destroyed at the very beginning.

The armored formation of tanks from the Blue Army brigade charged head-on at the soldiers of the two Blue Star brigades, who lacked heavy firepower, and destroyed the vast majority of their manpower with overwhelming firepower.

The tanks that followed were searching for and finishing off the remaining enemies.

[26/32]

Even the battle-hardened soldiers of Earth were helpless against the crushing force of tanks on the plains, and the soldiers of both units were quickly wiped out.

Outside the copy.

The atmosphere inside the Northern Army Headquarters was heavy.

Seeing the Blue Army brigade, after clearing out the electronic warfare brigade and the rocket brigade, turn on its equipment again, everyone's hearts skipped a beat.

As the Blue Army brigade attempted to operate, they quickly located the positions of all units except the 7th Special Operations Brigade. However, the other units were still unaware of this and headed towards the Blue Army brigade's location on the Inner Mongolian plains.

The 7th Brigade, however, remained completely silent, making it impossible to locate them. Yet, their direction of advance was the same as the starting position of the Blue Army Brigade on the Inner Mongolia Plain, completely unaware that the Blue Army Brigade had already moved outside the circle.

soon.

Based on the coordinates of the teams heading to the Inner Mongolian Plain, the Blue Army brigade launched rockets from its base in the center of the Inner Mongolian Plain, firing them in all directions. Meanwhile, the personnel remaining at the base were packing up their equipment.

After leaving behind only an empty shell and nuclear-strike missiles, they headed towards the location of the Blue Army brigade.

This scene made everyone in the Northern Army Command of the Great Xia Federation's temples throb. They watched as their own troops ran towards the designated center position like idiots, completely unaware of the danger.

Two hours later.

Two units have appeared in the central area from the northwest and the Blue Army brigade has been spotted.

They then dispersed and surrounded the Blue Army brigade base in the middle from both sides. However, both sides were constantly speeding up, trying to outpace each other, until they realized that something was amiss as they got closer.

Under the horrified gazes of everyone.

A 'sun' rises from the center of the base.

After being subjected to heavy fire, the Northern Army lost two more units.

[22/32]

Only 22 troops remain.

The high-ranking officers of the Northern Army of the Great Xia Federation frowned deeply upon seeing this.

That Blue Army brigade doesn't have unlimited firepower and ammunition either. By now, they've started scavenging equipment from their own troops. However, even with that, they haven't stopped and are still chasing the next unit.

into the night.

Great Xia Federation, Northern Army Command.

After watching the matches all day, some people are already getting restless.

It's mainly because it's too embarrassing.

Watching helplessly as 32 units were wiped out one by one while searching for the Blue Army brigade, the units in the game still haven't realized the seriousness of the problem. From an outsider's perspective, they are incredibly weak.

Currently, only Shen Yan's 7th Special Operations Brigade still maintains its complete organizational structure.

The main problem is that this guy is a stubborn person.

After discovering that a 'sun' had risen in the center of the Inner Mongolian plains, Shen Yan, knowing that the Blue Army Brigade was not there, led the soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Brigade in electronic silence, relying mainly on their own two legs, to search for the Blue Army Brigade everywhere.

They watched helplessly as the soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Brigade advanced from over 40 kilometers to over 50 kilometers, over 60 kilometers, and over 70 kilometers.
Meanwhile, the Blue Army brigade was unable to locate the Seventh Special Operations Brigade due to their complete silence, and could only search for them while fighting.

From the command headquarters' third-person perspective
These two teams were circling around each other, one in front and one behind.

until late at night.

After the other 31 units were eliminated by the Blue Army brigade's "firepower coverage", the soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Brigade were still not found.

Meanwhile, the 7th Special Operations Brigade, unable to find the Blue Army Brigade, chose to rest in a secluded location. Even those watching from the headquarters were getting tired of it and thought, "Why don't we just retreat? This is just a waste of time."

The next morning, a sound of surprise and delight came from the headquarters.

"it's over?!"

The awakened group quickly looked at the screen, which already showed that the match had ended.

Meanwhile, on the other side, in the 7th Special Operations Brigade, Shen Yan looked frustrated and, after a long pause, could only manage to utter one sentence:
"Depend on?!"

"They actually poisoned the water source! That's too ruthless!"

He searched all day, couldn't find anyone, and then got poisoned to death?!

It's incredibly frustrating.

Qu Guang was also helpless:

"Alright, let's quickly check on the other 31 teams and see what's going on."

"The 'Blue Army Brigade' in this dungeon is really impossible to beat."

At this time.

A communications soldier ran in:

"Brigade Commander, the Army Commander wants you to go to the General Headquarters conference room immediately for a meeting."

Shen Yan couldn't help but gasp:
"hiss--"

Is that all?

The communications soldier began:

"Yes."

Shen Yan had a bad feeling and his scalp tingled as he spoke:
"Okay, I see."

Then he said to Qu Guang:
"Let them go and rest first, I'm going to get scolded."

Qu Guang patted Shen Yan's shoulder with a look of concern on his face. Shen Yan smiled wryly, then took a deep breath, lay back down in the virtual pod, and went directly to the Army's exclusive software, entering the identification code.

next second.

Upon entering a conference room, I was greeted by a familiar roar.

"Don't you have even the slightest sense of vigilance?!"

"The Blue Army brigade captured them one by one thanks to your equipment and signals!"

"What about the chemical defense brigade?"

"To!"

"Was all that equipment in your truck fake? It was just a regular bomb. You spent over half an hour looking at it, and tell me what you were looking for? Huh?!"

"Report, because the bombing was so illogical, therefore..."

Before he could finish speaking, the sound of someone slamming their fist on the table rang out in anger.

Shen Yan couldn't help but shrink back; he was doomed.
a few days later.

Polestar Games.

Inside the office.

Shen Qinghan was talking to Zhao Ming about the "Blue of the Republic":
"The higher-ups are now paying close attention to the [Republic's Blue] instance. In addition to the Northern Army, the armies of other regions have also been ordered to organize troops to enter this instance, but the result is that they are all wiped out."

"The federal and military leadership ordered a restructuring of the forces and a thorough investigation of the problems, which had a wide-ranging impact."

"However, this also illustrates the importance of this instance."

"The Federation also hopes that you can create more of these exclusive copies."

"To improve the combat effectiveness of the troops."

After fighting the 'Blue Army Brigade', all the problems that hadn't been discovered before were suddenly exposed.

Low vigilance, rigid thinking, and following procedures, etc. Some troops hesitated for a moment after discovering the 'sun' rising in the center of the Inner Mongolian grassland, but still headed there. Shen Qinghan later heard Shen Yan mutter that, according to others, the old man was so angry at the time that he smashed the table in the headquarters.

Zhao Ming nodded and said:
"Just pay attention to it."

"Then can we make demands?"
