Major General Batlan slumped in his seat. The only trump card in his hand was also lost. He was a little annoyed. He didn't understand why his superiors were willing to put the nuclear bomb on Bagen Fortress but not Barcelo Fortress Base. When the time came, he could press the button to activate the nuclear explosion and die with the enemy.
However, Major General Batlan thought so, but he did not have the courage to press the button to activate the nuclear explosion.
Major General Batlan looked at the status screen and listened to the reporter in the command room reporting the current battle situation.
The MS troops of Skywing Mercenary Group have been advancing step by step, and the ground troops have also begun to invade Barcelo Fortress Base under the cover of the MS troops.
The adjutant behind Major General Batlan reminded him that there is a regiment-level fleet on standby behind the fortress base, and he can lead this friendly fleet to escape from the scene.
Batlan Major General nodded, and then immediately continued to dispatch troops so that when these troops could resist, they would cover his retreat.
Lieutenant Britney looked at his hands being handcuffed and looked up at Warrior Gundam H.
Angelica looked at Lieutenant Britney at the bottom of the screen, and then controlled Warrior Gundam H to return to the scene.
"Stop looking, let's go." Britney was pushed in the back. Under the leadership of Sky Wing Mercenaries, he walked into a prisoner tent and saw many captured colleagues, some with their wounds bandaged, some with their heads down, all squatting together.
Britney saw her comrades who had once formed a team with her, squatted down next to him and asked, "Besides you, is there anyone else?"
"Many are in other prisoner tents."
At this time, another male prisoner with handcuffs came in.
Britney recognized him. "Rand, are you still alive?" Britney couldn't believe that some of Coordinators's colleagues were still alive.
"Britney, you can live, why can't I live?"
"No, when I returned to the fortress base, General Batlan told me that you were all killed."
"Actually, I pressed the escape button earlier before the machine exploded. As a result, I was caught by the Sky Wing Mercenaries group shortly after escaping."
Rand sat down next to Britney.
Some prisoners were talking in the tent.
"I really don't know what Skywing Mercenary Group will do with us?"
"I just hope we are not handed over to the guerrillas."
"If that's the case, I'd rather die."
"Those are a group of barbarians. They are simply devils born of an evil regime."
Britney and Rand listened to the conversation of these soldiers. Rand whispered in Britney's ear, "I heard some conversations of Sky Wing Mercenaries before. Bagen Fortress was taken down by another fleet of theirs."
Britney looked at Rand in surprise.
"Don't look at me like this. If it were another army, I really wouldn't believe it. But look at Skywing Mercenary Group. In just a few hours, the troops outside Barcelo Fortress Base and their defense systems were almost destroyed by them. In the end, almost all the troops in the fortress base were dispatched. After a few hours of fighting, we were also defeated. They were beaten back steadily. Bagen Fortress was captured by them. It is probably not fake."
"Rand, how long do you think the fortress base can last?"
"If I can last 24 hours, even if Major General Batlan is very capable, I'm afraid this guy is already preparing to escape now."
On the other side, Major General Batlan led the escape fleet to escape from the north of Barcelo Fortress Base.
While Major General Batlan was still able to command, he mobilized some troops to continue resisting.
After the escape fleet had moved away from Barcelo Fortress Base, Major General Batlan had given up.
Barcelo Fortress Base After losing the commander's mobilization and falling into a leaderless state, they didn't know whether to continue to resist or surrender.
Several Jie Gang were on the wide walkway, shooting at the enemy MS in front of them.
Several Electromagnetic Cannon Tanks from Skywing Mercenary Group's ground forces fired several Electromagnetic projectiles in succession, penetrating the Zaku I machine body, causing Zaku I to fall backwards.
As soon as the driver escaped from the cockpit, a Sky Wing Mercenaries pointed a rifle at his head, and he could only raise his hands in surrender.
Many Sky Wing Mercenaries ground individual combat teams have begun to control many facilities and consoles in Barcelo Fortress Base.
Many defenders in fortress bases began to surrender one after another.
When the combat team was in the control room, they found that the commander, Major General Batlan, had already fled, and used the broadcaster and communication line to inform the Metadeng Nation army who was still fighting.
"The command room is already under our control. Your commander, Major General Batlan, has already escaped Barcelo Fortress Base. You have been abandoned. There is no need to fight anymore. Surrender. Those who surrender will not be killed, and those who do not surrender will die. Those who give up resistance within five minutes will be treated in accordance with international law. Soldiers who are still resisting after five minutes will be killed without mercy."
In less than five minutes, the Metadeng Nation army gave up resistance and announced its surrender.
Brigadier General Andre, the commander of the fleet where Yue Yangchun is located, is making arrangements to receive Barcelo Fortress Base, dispatching subordinates to deal with the surrendered prisoners, and watching the uploaded combat reports.
Britney and all his colleagues sat in a military truck and were sent to Barcelo Fortress Base. They were either held in a detention camp within the base or placed in a temporary prisoner camp.
Britney learned from the surrendered colleagues that the general had already fled with his cronies.
The military truck drove into Barcelo Fortress Base, and Britney, like everyone else, put on handcuffs and shackles and got out of the car.
Britney and many colleagues arranged to wait on the grass.
At this time, Britney and many of his colleagues exclaimed when they saw Sky Wing Mercenaries, saying they saw children.
Britney saw Angelica and the slightly older boy next to him.
Rand, who was next to Britney, said, "I can't believe that Skywing Mercenary Group would put a child on the battlefield."
"That little girl is the pilot of the Gundam."
"What!" Rand exclaimed, looking at Britney in shock with an expression that seemed to say, are you kidding me?
Britney glanced at Rand and explained briefly.
"The slightly older boy next to the little girl is probably also a Gundam pilot."
"Britney, I really can't believe that we were defeated by children. Is the Newtype you are talking about the same as us..." Rand looked at his colleagues nearby and found that he had not noticed them.
Whispered next to Britney: "Are they really adjusted differently from us?"
"It should be different. The biggest difference is that we are human-made products, and they are natural products."
At this time, a mercenary major held a radio and said to the prisoners, "We will temporarily detain you and then hand you over to the guerrilla forces to deal with you."
The prisoners were now very restless.
"Leave us to them, why don't you kill us now."
"I don't want to be tortured by these barbarians."
The mercenary major made a gesture, and the mercenaries fired directly into the air to silence the protesting prisoners.
"Why do those guerrilla forces torture you and treat you badly? You will know after watching these clips."
A number of stereoscopic projection screens were projected on site.
The image on the screen shows how the Metadeng Nation army massacred local South American Continent villagers or local citizens in some towns. The methods were so cruel that even children were not spared.
"We didn't do this."
"Every wrong has its owner, and every debt has its own owner. If we want to settle accounts, we have to settle accounts with those people. What does this have to do with us?"
"Why do bad things happen when they do it and we bear the consequences?"
Another round of shots in the air to silence the prisoners.
The mercenary major continued, "No matter what the reason is, in the hearts of the South American Continent people with normal minds, you are the invaders."
Although Britney and Rand are Coordinators, their minds are broader and clearer than others. Wars are always started by those above. No matter which side it is, the people who suffer are always the people. Down here are the soldiers fighting on the front line. The sacrifices of these soldiers only achieve the achievements and interests of the people above.
These soldiers fighting on the front line, no matter what, have to bear the anger of the local people who are suffering. The local guerrillas are composed of local people. Resentment and anger towards them are inevitable, and they are just shields for their superiors.
Rand said, "We, the frontline soldiers, are the only ones who can bear the wrath of the local people."
"This is just the helplessness of our frontline soldiers." Britney said helplessly.
