Is it really okay to click on the Starry Sky technology tree in Star Railway?

They abandoned meaningless areas, and consolidated the defense of the commercial street by connecting points into lines and lines into surfaces. Although the number of casualties of soldiers continued to increase, compared with the previous combat methods, the numbers on paper alone looked many times better.

Every soldier is a son and a father in his family. Any sacrifice is enough to bring a family to the brink of collapse.

War is far more than just cold numbers. Otherwise, even if you win, you will lose miserably in other aspects.

Chen Lin did not remember exactly which morning Bronya began to call him mentor, saying that she also longed for the pure and beautiful utopian scene that Chen Lin had told him about. In her opinion, he was the guide who opened up the path for her thoughts, so she also called him by the title in that period of history.

Of course, when there are many people outside, she still uses the normal title. This is Chen Lin’s request. He doesn’t want to deceive someone else’s daughter secretly and then the news will reach the ears of the mother.

Not to mention that there is a high probability that the mother has problems.

"The layout is good. It cuts off the enemy's main transportation routes and uses narrow intersections to resist the enemy's offensive."

Chen Lin checked the crudely made sand table on the ground and praised it.

"You said that we should proceed from reality, conduct specific analysis on specific issues, and look at changes in objective conditions dialectically, instead of mechanically copying and pasting."

"Don't talk to me about that. You've only been studying for a few days and you want to argue with me, right?"

"Don't dare..."

Although she said that, Bronya still had a happy look on her face. After all, not every student could truly apply the knowledge taught by the teacher into practice.

She was very happy to be able to apply theoretical knowledge for the first time and get Chen Lin's affirmation.

"Captain Bronya, the battle report from five minutes ago has been tabulated."

"You give the orders first, and I'll watch." Chen Lin asked Bronya to do the real work, while he still had to continue to plan his own things.

Let Bronya send March, Danheng and Xing to the front line. First, to show the Iron Guards their enthusiasm to help in times of crisis. Second, no matter what kind of army it is, almost all of them respect the strong. If they go to the front line and fight with all their might, it will definitely enable the team to gain the best prestige in the shortest time.

Here it can be simply referred to as military support.

Among all the political systems that Chen Lin has seen, the army is undoubtedly the most important. To be honest, he is not afraid of Cocolia, who is always causing trouble for his relationship list. If he really wants to have trouble, it should be the army.

If the army did not carry out the order, no matter what she, Cocolia, could do, she would not be able to cause any trouble for the actions of those people.

Chen Lin had witnessed the erosion of the Rift Realm as he rushed here. The situation was so bad that the situation outside the main battle line alone was far worse than the erosion of the Rift Realm they had encountered when they first arrived.

One can imagine how chaotic and dangerous the main battlefield is.

Many silver-maned iron guards who were stationed on the outer city defense line continued to enter the headquarters to report the situation. Some iron guards were quite confused when they saw the unfamiliar face of Chen Lin.

Every time this happened, Pella would briefly introduce the identities of Chen Lin and his group, and the messengers would understand instantly.

In the battle report, three of the four members of the pioneering team were killing people at the front line. They could almost kill the monsters that came out of the rift as soon as they got to a position. In less than an hour, they became famous among the Iron Guards.

The guards on all fronts knew that three mysterious helpers with extremely strong combat power had arrived at the front.

As soon as they heard that the young man with a gentle smile in the command center was the captain of the team, the soldiers who came to deliver the message all cast grateful glances at him.

After all, no one knows... whether his relatives and friends who are also in the army have been saved by these enthusiastic helpers. Even if they are not relatives or friends, as comrades-in-arms, they naturally showed silent kindness to Chen Lin.

The battle continued until it got dark, and there was still no sign of stopping. Instead, more and more world-ripping monsters made the soldiers exhausted, and the battle line in the front gradually tightened.

Bronya looked down at the sand table, holding the information sorted out by Pera in one hand, and paced in the tent with a frown on her face.

"The last two teams are being escorted here. Once we confirm that all the survivors have evacuated, we will end this battle! It's too slow, too slow. Why is there still no news? The Iron Guards have suffered enough casualties. We can't continue to waste time like this."

Everyone felt unwilling. Pella pursed her lips and said nothing. After all, this was once their home. But now all they could do was to evacuate the civilians and then redivide the safe zone and the dangerous zone...

"Bronya."

Chen Lin, who had been sitting there since morning, suddenly called out.

Bronya looked over in confusion.

"tutor?"

"Do you want to take back this homeland?"

"I want to, but I can't do it, mentor. The rift will not disappear. Monsters will only continue to pour out." Bronya shook her head bitterly.

However, Chen Lin had a piece of news that Bronya did not know. According to Dan Heng, the appearance of the rift was the external manifestation of the overflow of energy from the star core. The energy to maintain the opening in space was ultimately limited, especially when the rift just appeared. At that time, it did not have enough energy to completely connect to the star core.

Therefore, as long as all the monsters produced by the overflowing energy of the star core are destroyed, the rift will naturally dissipate due to lack of energy to maintain it.

Just when Pella was about to explain something to Chen Lin, there were suddenly dense footsteps outside, and a group of Silver-mane Iron Guards who were wearing slightly different clothes from other Iron Guards broke in. Bronya recognized at a glance that these Silver-mane Iron Guards were Jeppard's men.

Bronya's face turned serious and she shouted, "What are you doing?!"

"Lady Bronya!"

The leading Iron Guard knelt on the ground with a plop and buried his head deeply in front of his knees. "Please save Commander Jeppard. Commander Jeppard disappeared in the crevasse when he went to support the last two groups of survivors! The brother who was sent back by Commander Jeppard to report the news just died, saying that Commander Jeppard and his men were in a tough battle!"

"What?!!!"

At this time, Chen Lin, who was sitting on the stool, had his eyes light up. He sensed the opportunity and suddenly stood up and said under the stunned gaze of everyone:

"It's okay, I'll go pick them up."

Chapter 35 The truth is only within the range of artillery!

To some extent, Chen Lin is a diplomatic genius.

Generally speaking, foreign guests like them who are often picked on by Cocolia should try to understand the true intentions of their political leaders and either reduce their presence or leave quickly before conflicts break out.

However, Chen Lin didn't want to do this. He was not only eyeing the star core that would be affected when the Star Train warped, but also this planet that was rich in minerals and had abundant energy!

At this point, finding star cores has become a small matter. Chen Lin wants to slightly change the leader of this country so that he can fully experience the fun of the game of owning a 'mother star'.

Out of curiosity and interests, he chose to bring the pioneering team to join this war that originally belonged only to Beloberg and the Rift...

"Pella, you go with the team."

After much persuasion, Bronya realized that she could not persuade Chen Lin.

The determination he showed was as if his own country was invaded by monsters, stubborn and serious.

In addition, the army is now tired and the casualties among the soldiers are even more serious. They are finding it extremely difficult to resist the wave after wave of attacks from the monsters. It is imaginable how difficult it is to send a team with strong combat effectiveness to cover the trapped Jeppard team.

Bronya does have impressive combat power, but the problem is that as a commander she must command from the rear and must not be out of touch with the information of the front-line troops for a long time. Otherwise, the army, which is already fighting hard, will easily suffer from low morale, leading to even greater casualties and mistakes.

She couldn't leave. No matter how anxious she was, she couldn't leave the command center!

Since she, who could be used as a fighting force, could not move, and the remaining captains were either defending at the front line or had been injured and were recuperating, it seemed that the only person who could be asked for help was the researcher in front of him who looked frail.

The two hadn't spent a lot of time together, but Bronya knew some of Chen Lin's character very well, and he would never make a decision that would put himself in danger when the conditions allowed.

Jeppard had only met him once, and he must have given it careful consideration to be able to be so confident in guaranteeing to find Jeppard and bring back the team that had been out of news for a long time.

Not to mention that Pera had told her before that Chen Lin's team seemed to be carrying some powerful self-defense weapons. Even if she had not seen it with her own eyes, Bronya could still tell the technological gap between Beloberg and alien civilizations.

Beyond the starry sky, there are many mysterious powers and technologies that they have never imagined. She longs for the powerful empire that Chen Lin told her about in the form of a story, a terrifying existence called the Star Sea Empire...

He seemed to come from this civilization.

The dazed look disappeared in an instant, and Bronya said seriously: "Please be sure to pay attention to safety, Pella, you too, keep in touch with the headquarters at all times."

After saying that, Bronya looked at the guards under Jeppard who were lowering their heads in front of the door and had not dared to make a single breath since the moment they entered.

"Gather your team and go with Mr. Chen Lin to the Rift Realm where Guard Officer Jeppard disappeared!"

The soldiers responded loudly and excitedly: "Yes!"

At the same time, he looked with gratitude at Chen Lin who was preparing to leave.

In the army, the Iron Guards who can hold their weapons tightly and step into the dangerous front are not rookies. They are constantly receiving training from the Jeppard Guards, walking together on the edge of life and death. Almost everyone who survives owes each other at least one life.

The loss of life is indeed difficult to recover. That is why every soldier regards his fellow soldiers as his family. If they can lend a helping hand, everyone will go to the battlefield hand in hand without hesitation, even if they know that the consequence of all this will be that they will turn into a cold corpse...

They still do!

Now, their commander, Jeppard, was in deep danger, and of the six brothers sent back to deliver the message, only one made it to the rear alive, seriously injured.

As their direct superior, Jeppard was very kind to them, and no one would regret dedicating themselves to the rescue!

This is the difference in consciousness between ordinary soldiers and commanders. They are willing to rush to the battlefield in anger, but the commanders will not necessarily let them act on impulse.

War is always a game of human resource management!

Pyra closed her eyes, picked up the book beside her, stood up and nodded. The dim light reflected a dazzling light in the glasses on her nose.

"clear."

A few minutes later, more than 30 soldiers, fully armed, set out on a road from which there might be no return.

At the front of the formation, Chen Lin, with nothing in his hands, and Pella, who was on high alert, walked quickly, passing through one road after another that was heavily blocked by soldiers.

The soldiers were on high alert, Pera looked nervous, but Chen Lin was the only one who was calm and unhurried, as if the place they were walking on was not a battlefield but a spring outing venue.

What gave him such confidence? A strong body? Agile and powerful fighting skills?

No, no, no, these things are a bit too fancy. You know, the truth is only within the range of cannons!

"Sir, you can actually let your guards do these things. It's too risky to go to the battlefield yourself." Pella sighed lightly. Chen Lin's gentle appearance didn't look like someone who often went to the battlefield to fight the enemy. He looked more like someone who was doing related work behind the battlefield.

People like this always have the confidence to not fear war because they have never seen what war is like.

Pera understood Bronya's meaning very thoroughly. Although she was just an intelligence officer, Pera actually had a lot of combat experience. Bronya sent her here just to protect Chen Lin. Anyone could die if necessary, but the young man in front of her must not get into any danger.

As a confidant, Pera knew that Bronya was worried about many things, including the possible diplomatic consequences.

Beloberg has suffered enough, and he must not attract more enemies because of other things...

"Don't worry. The era of physical competition has long passed in our place. In front of absolutely powerful weapons, the number of people is actually irrelevant."

Chen Lin's voice was neither hurried nor slow, and even his pace did not slow down at all while he was speaking.

During these days, the Black Tower scientists he got for free did not rest, but worked frantically day and night. The research results they produced had long since eliminated the deflection shield and blue laser into the garbage dump of the era. The improved deflection shield and the latest swarm missiles developed previously were the powerful weapons he could rely on now!

As they were talking, everyone arrived in front of the target rift, and Chen Lin stepped into it without saying a word...

Chapter 36 Humanitarian Spirit

"Ouch——!"

In the corridor filled with black and broken space, a ferocious human figure as tall as an iron tower fell to the ground with a scream. Even through his wide battle robe, one could see his bulging muscles like a coiled dragon, and his roar was as loud as thunder.

The Silver Mane Iron Guards recognized the most handsome man, the eldest son of Langdao, and the current Silver Mane Iron Guards garrison officer. The armor on his front was dented, and he raised his huge shield and smashed it on the fallen monster again and again until the ground was cracked, and the monster's screams gradually stopped...

The arms holding the shield felt numb and the muscles felt weak.

Not far behind him, more than a hundred civilians in different clothes huddled together in fear. Only after seeing Jeppard defeat his powerful enemy did all of their tense nerves slowly relax.

Before Jeppard could rest for a few seconds, a limping guard came forward anxiously with a trembling voice.

"Captain Jeppard, has Laszlo...has he become like that?"

"That's not him. Laszlo is slow and methodical in his work and is usually very polite to everyone. That's just a poor imitation of him by the Rift Energy. I can handle it!"

Jeppard kept comforting the soldiers in front of him, and his pale face almost told everyone that he was in a very bad condition.

There was no way. They had been trapped in this monster-infested area for nearly two hours. The soldiers who came with him were either injured or dead. At this point, those who could still fight could be counted on two hands.

The humanoid monster just now was a member of the search and rescue team they came to support, but the other party had died before they arrived. The energy in the rift used the corpses on the ground to forge monsters that looked like the dead, and continuously attacked all the survivors.

It has human appearance, but none of the inner qualities of a human, which is why Jeppard mocked it as a poor imitation.

After holding out for so long, Jeppard's mood is getting worse and worse, because when he was trapped, he made a decision. He hoped to pass on the message through his soldiers and let the front line transfer some manpower to cover their evacuation. The monsters here are incredibly strong, several times stronger than the monsters on the front line of the commercial street, and their number is so large that he feels very difficult to deal with.

But so much time has passed, and Jeppard led the soldiers to fight monsters. In the process, he saw several extremely familiar faces. They were all soldiers he sent out to deliver messages. The appearance of monsters with the same appearance as them in the rift meant that it was almost certain that they had died on the way back.

But Jeppard still held out hope, there was another brother whose monster he hadn't seen.

The strength of the Silvermane Guards is actually not weak. The fact that they were able to hold out for so long against the tide of Rift Monsters is enough to show that they could have covered each other and evacuated earlier. However, the number of survivors is too large, so large that the entire team has difficulty just moving forward safely.

Almost every ten or so steps, civilians would be killed by monsters that appeared out of nowhere. In order to protect the civilians, Jeppard's team's evacuation speed became slower and slower, until it was reduced to the current point where it could only defend.

The rift back home was not far, only about 2 kilometers, but they could no longer move.

They could clearly see the light in the distance, but they felt so far away from the safe area, and their hope was so slim...

Where are the reinforcements? Are there really reinforcements?

Jeppard shook his head vigorously to clear away all the negative emotions. He firmly believed that the Silver Mane Guards would not give up on them, and he also firmly believed that persistence would be rewarded.

boom!

He slammed his shield to the ground, staring at the broken limbs of the Iron Guards in front of him, and said in a shocking voice: "Everyone hold on, Commander Bronya will definitely send someone to pick us up. The road ahead is difficult, and every second we hold off the enemy's attack, the support team can move forward one step in our direction! We can't let the support troops down, they will be here soon!"

"..."

Few soldiers responded, and the civilians who were protected in the team also looked deathly pale.
