Nie Chang put down the communicator, and the words of the supreme leader echoed in his mind.
"Leave professional matters to professional people for judgment."
He no longer hesitated and immediately picked up another walkie-talkie that had direct access to the frontline guards.
"Tianpeng Squad, this is Frontline Command Nie Chang, let Major Lin Yi answer immediately, emergency!"
Soon, the response from the special operations team leader Tianpeng came from the other end of the intercom. "Command Headquarters, Tianpeng received. Major Lin is maintaining energy neutrality. Please speak, I can convey it."
"Give him the walkie-talkie, give it directly to him, and let him listen in person!" Nie Chang ordered.
After a brief rustling, Lin Yi's calm voice came through the radio waves, and there seemed to be a subtle buzz of energy in the background. "Chief Nie, please speak."
"Staff Officer Lin, I'll keep the story short."
Nie Chang spoke very fast, "Monitoring Center detection found that Leader Rank Abyss Beast appeared in Small Nest No. 1. The strength of Source Energy is as high as 17900. It is expected to arrive with the beast tide."
He took a deep breath and expressed the dilemma in the most concise language. "My assessment is that the existing firepower reserves cannot quickly and effectively kill leaders of this level. If we stick to the original plan, the infantry defense line will be under tremendous pressure and the casualties may be difficult to control. It is recommended to retreat immediately and let you hold the line. You can still save the main force and choose the opportunity to fight again. I want to ask your opinion, should we withdraw or fight?"
There was silence on the other end of the intercom for two seconds, with only the subtle noise of energy flowing.
Then, Lin Yi's voice came without any fluctuation, as if what he heard was not some Abyss Beast leader, but a Abyss Wolf on the roadside.
"Continue planning."
Nie Chang almost thought he heard it wrong, "Staff Officer Lin? Are you sure? The one with 17900."
"I confirm."
Lin Yi interrupted him directly, his tone remained calm, "Commander Nie, proceed as originally planned. The Abyss Beast leader of Small Nest will be handled by me."
"Leave it to you" Nie Chang repeated it subconsciously.
"Yes."
This time, Lin Yi did not maintain his habitual calm tone, but said in an unquestionable tone, "I will handle that leader. I am sure of it. You just need to hold your position and complete your mission."
17900, only Stardust Tier 3 is perfect Leader Rank Abyss Beast, Lin Yi is naturally certain.
And he knew very well that once he started to Source Energy neutralize a certain Abyss Beast Nest, the surrounding Abyss Beast Nest would inevitably be angered and spawn Leader Rank units to defend and counterattack.
It's just that he currently has no reasonable explanation to the official for this rule.
This time we just take this opportunity to let the military realize this through personal experience.
Since it had been anticipated, how could he not prepare?
Before the start of this battle, Lin Yi had planned three plans to deal with this situation. With the official Source Energy Recovery Fluid, there were four plans.
However, compared to his previous plan, directly using the fourth plan of Source Energy Recovery Fluid is the simplest and most convenient, without any hassle.
Nie Chang held the walkie-talkie, his palms slightly sweaty.
Lin Yi's tone was so sure that he almost forgot about the huge gap in numerical values.
He weighed things up quickly in his mind.
"Ordinary soldiers rely on the right combination to win by surprise. Since Nest didn't follow the path and came up with surprise soldiers, it's not like we don't have any!"
Military common sense told him that retreat was a safer option, but the miracles Lin Yi performed time and time again made him choose to trust Lin Yi's professional judgment.
"Okay!"
Nie Chang spat out one word with a deep voice, "I understand. As for the leader, please leave it to Major Lin."
"Don't worry."
Lin Yi only replied two words, and then ended the call, obviously putting all his attention back into neutralizing Source Energy.
Nie Chang put down the walkie-talkie and felt that the military uniform behind him was soaked with sweat.
He let out a long sigh of air that had accumulated in his chest.
Once he has made up his mind, he will be more decisive than anyone else.
Nie Chang turned to the communications soldiers on standby and ordered decisively, "Notify all units to prepare to engage the enemy according to the plan!"
"Yes!"
The order was instantly transmitted throughout the defensive position via radio waves.
After a brief silence, the confirmation sounds of commanders at all levels sounded one after another, followed by more urgent battle preparation instructions and the clang of weapon safety opening.
Like a completely awakened giant, the steel defense line entered its final battle state.
The infantrymen finally checked their firearms and ammunition, and set up light and heavy firepower based on the fortifications; the tank engine made a muffled roar, and the muzzle was slightly adjusted to point in the direction of the incoming beast tide; the armed helicopter's rotor accelerated and spun into the sky.
At this moment, Lin Yi, who was standing in front of Nest, seemed not to notice the incoming Abyss Tide. He just concentrated on controlling Source Energy, and continued and slowly infected Purple-Black Vortex in front of him with azure blue Source Energy.
Soon, on the distant horizon, a black tide line accompanied by a deafening roar surged in like a tsunami.
The first wave of Abyss Tide crashed into the steel defense line carefully constructed by mankind.
"Fire!!!"
Nie Chang's command was like ice water thrown into a boiling pan of oil, instantly detonating the Destruction sexual energy that had been accumulated for a long time in the entire defense line.
The first one to roar was the God of War in the rear.
"Artillery position! Fire concentration area No. 1, Xu Jin barrage! Release!" the artillery commander directly ordered.
"Boom!!!"
The ground suddenly trembled, and ten P9-type 155mm vehicle-mounted howitzers roared in unison, and the roar even temporarily overwhelmed all the noise on the front line.
The scream of the cannonball tearing through the air came from far away, like the grim smile of death.
The next second, about five hundred meters behind the front line of the beast tide, a wall of death composed of flames, fragments and shock waves suddenly rose from the ground!
The low-level Abyss Beast that just passed through this area, mainly Corrosive Abyssal Wolf with Source Energy strength 7-15, mixed with a small amount of Bone-Arrow Pig that can launch backstabs and Abyss Bat that emits interference sound waves, were instantly torn into pieces.
The barrage was like an iron plow of death. It began to "plow" slowly in the direction of the beast tide according to the predetermined plan, frantically harvesting those twisted lives.
On the monitoring screen of old Department Center, a huge gap suddenly appeared at the front of the surging red tide representing Abyss Beast, as if a piece of it had been wiped away by an invisible giant hand.
However, the number of Abyss Beast was too great, and subsequent waves filled it in without stopping. They quickly crossed the barrage area and pounced on the human frontier.
"Fire freely, prioritize high-speed targets!" the commanders of each infantry unit ordered at the top of their lungs.
"Da da da da!"
"Zizzizi."
"Tong Tong Tong!!"
The roar of automatic rifles, light and heavy machine guns, and infantry fighting vehicle machine guns instantly rang out, forming a second metal Storm.
Corrosive Abyssal Wolf, who was at the front, and Swift-Claw Beast, who was extremely fast, fell down in pieces.
Burrowing Abyss Worm, which tried to emerge from the ground, was blown to pieces by the grenade that was being carefully guarded as soon as it emerged. Occasionally, a rolling Self-Detonating Ground Louse approached, and was killed in advance by precision shooters.
In the first wave of attacks, the defense line is as stable as Rock Shelter.
