Chapter 1,472 Escape(2/2)
"Looking at your judgment of the situation, you are very methodical. But have you taken the crash course for officers?"
"Uh... I am a graduate of the Armored Weapons Department of the Royal Guards University."
"Royal Guards University? Assigned to the Stormtroopers?" Major General Hongkas suddenly became happy.
It seems that even humans and top students may not necessarily be reused. From this perspective, the personnel of our Imperial Army is quite fair.
"I didn't see the flare."
"...Just now." Captain McGowan said.
"Just now?"
"Yes, that's when your airship was shot down."
"..."
Major General Hongkas now knows why this guy is obviously a top student at the Royal Guards Academy, but he is only in the Stormtrooper system, and he is only a lieutenant at this age.
"What about the mission of your unit? As for the 17th Brigade, you are planning to retreat from the north of the city?"
Lieutenant McGovern nodded: "We just suffered a fierce attack from the enemy. In just five minutes, a total of 6 armored airships were shot down and crashed nearby. 28 tanks and 14 infantry fighting vehicles were destroyed. Our 4th regiment
Our mission is to search for and rescue survivors and cut off the enemy’s rear.”
The burly giant general nodded, took out a Vulcan cannon from the wreckage of the airship next to him, and carried it upside down on the deck: "Very good, Lieutenant. I order your 4th regiment to retreat from the north of the city with me."
.Leave now!”
"This, but, Your Excellency..."
"From now on, I will promote you to captain! Captain Meigs, you will be my new adjutant." The giant general patted the human officer who was wearing a mecha and was a head and a half shorter than him, and said seriously: "
Go and carry out the order."
Mags' surprised expression finally showed some joy. He saluted the general and then fired a signal bomb into the sky.
"What the hell, it's so primitive." Major General Hongkas shook his head and spat, feeling both ridiculous and proud.
The instructions for these flares were also drawn up after I took office. I originally thought that I would be prepared for any emergencies, but I didn't expect that they would be used in the first battle.
It can be seen that the stormtroopers of the 4th Regiment of the 17th Brigade are relatively elite. It only took five minutes to gather together and began to retreat towards the north of the city, surrounding the Commander.
This time it went quite smoothly. Although everyone did encounter cold shots and bombings from the defenders, after all, they were a real regiment of Imperial stormtroopers gathered in a breakout formation. There were mechas, armored vehicles, tanks, and drone escorts.
, after everyone suffered dozens more casualties, they finally left the ruins of the city and set foot on the wilderness north of the city.
According to the original plan, they should retreat from the north of the city, rendezvous with the main force of the 17th Brigade, which had already left earlier, pass through the wilderness and hills north of Marshal Li's Galle, and meet at the mountain north camp.
At this time, Captain McGowan, who had just served as the adjutant, also received the communication from the brigade headquarters. Although the communication quality was very poor, he could still vaguely understand that the 17th Brigade was ambushed in the northern wilderness area.
"No surprise. The enemy troops have been operating in the mountains to the north of the city. They are like monkeys in the mountains. They can't be wiped out." Major General Hongkas twitched the corner of his mouth and sneered: "So I don't understand.
Why was it necessary to build another military camp in the north of the mountain in the first place?"
"It can ensure our control over the northern plains and ensure that the enemy will not escape through the mountains. At the same time, it can also maintain military pressure on the defenders in the north and northwest. After all, Marshal Li, the city of Golla is surrounded by the sea on one side and facing two sides.
