MTL - Twenty Seven Years-Chapter 526 last hope

  …

   The battle lasted for three hours, and there was still no sign of stopping.

  Government forces have the potential to capture the Equality Army defense line at all costs today, at least to make significant progress.

   Saxon's squad was in charge of the defense section. After so long a fierce battle, only he and the clever Vito were left.

   "Squad leader! When will the support arrive?!"

  Enemy bullets scuffed up the dust above the trenches. Vito checked the magazines, not daring to show his face at will.

"boom!"

   Saxon aimed at the nearby enemy and fired a shot, then quickly hid in the trench and reloaded: "Wait a minute! It should be here soon!"

   Is it really coming soon?

  Saxon is not sure, he is more inclined to think that the Equality Army has no reserve troops.

  The government army has launched an all-out attack for so long, and the entire defense line is under tremendous pressure. A few defense sections were even captured by them at one point, and they were taken back with painstaking sacrifices by the comrades of the Equal Army.

   At this point, if there is a reserve force, it should have been dispatched to stabilize the situation.

  Perhaps the government army thought so too, feeling that hope was right in front of them, so they gritted their teeth and threw their troops into the battlefield like crazy.

   Could it be that the Fetier defense line is going to...

no.

  Saxon didn't know much, and he wasn't very literate. He couldn't understand books such as "On Equality" popularized in the Equality Army, but he understood that the International Equality League was really fighting for the people.

  His father was not in good health, and had never had the money to go to the hospital for proper treatment. Now the International Equality League arranged for free treatment.

  His mother doesn't know much, and now she has a stable job under the arrangement of the International Equality League.

  His younger sister can’t afford to study, so she went out to work early to earn money to support her family, and now, the International Equality League also sends her to school for free.

  In the past, he did the hardest work, but he couldn't guarantee enough food for the few members of his family.

  Now, he wants to follow the International Equality Alliance to guard this precious beauty and make everything full of hope.

   "Bang bang bang!"

   "Bang bang bang!"

  The government army has a certain advantage, and they can't hold their heads up because of their firepower.

   "Squad leader, they are about to attack!" After Vito fired a shot, he found that the nearest enemy was less than 20 meters away from them.

   "As long as I am here, no one can cross this trench!" Saxon loaded his gun and aimed at the nearest enemy.

"boom!"

  The bullet hit the opponent's thigh, and the government soldier fell to the ground while screaming.

  Other government soldiers saw this and did not extend a helping hand, they stepped up and ran towards the trenches of the Equality Army.

   Only one step away.

   As long as they can rush into the trenches, gain a firm foothold, expand their advantages bit by bit, and cause the defeat of the Equality Army, then their nightmare will be over.

   "Squad leader!"

  The Saxon, who had just loaded his bullets back into the trench, was about to raise his gun to aim, but saw Vito on one side wrestle with a government soldier who rushed into the trench first.

  He hurriedly raised his gun to aim, but Vito was too close to the enemy, and shooting rashly might cause accidental injury.

   "Hold on!" Saxon rushed over, dragged the government soldiers away, pushed them to the ground and smashed them with the **** of their guns.

   "Squad leader!"

  Before Saxon finished off the enemy, Vito cried out anxiously again.

   Another government soldier rushed into the trench and aimed his gun at him for the first time.

"boom!"

   "Poof!"

  Vito rushed to the gun in desperation.

   As he threw down the enemy, blood burst from his chest.

   "Vito!" Saxon smashed the enemy under him to death with all his strength, and then hurried over to help Vito.

   "Hurry up, squad leader!" Vito felt that his power was rapidly draining, but he still clung to the enemy's spear.

"boom!"

   "Poof!"

   Another shot hit Vito in the abdomen.

  This time he finally lost his ability to resist, his whole body went limp, and he sat slumped in the trench.

"boom!"

   Saxon rushed to knock down the enemy before he could shoot, and then rushed to Vito's side to check his injuries.

   "Ahem..." Vito couldn't help choking out blood, his face was distorted in pain, "Squad, squad leader..."

   "Hold on! I'll call the military doctor!" The other comrades in the class had already collapsed, and Saxon didn't want to see Vito die too.

   "I can't do it...it hurts too much..." Vito was tearing and snotting, and gently tugged on Saxon's sleeve with the last bit of strength, "Squad...squad leader...and, and...there are many...a lot of enemies..."

  As soon as Vito finished speaking, another government soldier rushed in.

"boom!"

  The opponent quickly spotted Saxon, and immediately shot him.

   By luck, the bullet missed Saxon.

   Immediately afterwards, Saxon rushed forward without reloading the bullet.

at the same time

   Fetier Line, Command Post

   "Comrade Joseph! The line of defense is about to collapse! It will be too late if the reserve team doesn't come up!" the officer rushing back from the front line said urgently.

   Both Joseph and Adel stared at the sand table with pale faces.

   "Comrade Joseph!" Seeing that Joseph did not speak, the officer shouted again.

   "Not yet! This is our last reserve team! It must be used where it is most needed!" Joseph clenched his fists, "Persevere!"

   "Several defenses are already in jeopardy! They are fighting hand-to-hand with the government army! If you wait any longer, even ten reserve teams will be useless!"

Adel explained: "The government army has made it clear that they want to attack the defense line today. If we replenish our troops little by little, this battle will only continue to drag on. Only when the government army is exhausted physically and mentally is exhausted. Only by sending the reserve team up to beat them back at all times will it be possible to frustrate them and let them stop this attack."

   "Yes—" the officer was speechless.

"Comrade Adel is right. From the point of view of the government army, the line of defense is about to be breached. Now that their morale is high, it will not be effective to blindly send the reserve troops. When they accumulate to the extreme, they will be hit hard, and they may soon lose their fighting spirit and retreat." Joseph also explained the reason for waiting, "If we can't hold this time, we will usher in the darkest moment. If we can hold it , The government army estimates that it will no longer be able to organize an attack of this scale within a few days, and the defense line can last at least a week."

   "A week... a week from now?" the officer asked.

   "We'll think about it when we persist until then." Joseph said helplessly.

  The Equality Army can only take one step forward.

  It is unrealistic to expect them to hold the Feitier line of defense forever, and the government forces will always fight the Feitier line of defense forever.

   "Comrade Joseph!" A few minutes later, another officer quickly walked into the command post, "Multiple lines of defense are occupied by the government forces, and their main force is also gathering towards these lines of defense, trying to gain a foothold!"

"It's time..." Joseph let out a long breath, and issued the latest order calmly and forcefully, "Notify the reserve team to support these defenses, and make sure to take them back in the shortest possible time! Also notify the entire army and prepare for the counterattack Prepare!"

   "Counterattack..."

   "This is our last chance to hold the line of defense! Even the government forces are willing to do whatever it takes, so we have to do our best!" Joseph said again.

"yes!"

  —

   night

  Laizein, in the utility room at the end of an alley

  The plan to hijack government personnel and exchange hostages with the government failed with the arrest of dozens of comrades.

  For several days in a row, the action team could only choose to hide in the dark and do nothing.

   "Comrade Evans, sit down." Capa looked much better.

Evans paced back and forth, unable to calm down: "The Feitier line of defense was almost breached by the government forces today, and now if we want to reverse the situation, we have to overthrow Lezein, but we even Comrade Verak and the others Can't be rescued, how could it be..."

  Bella said: "Didn't the terminal send support? With support, we may not be hopeless."

   "As far as I know, only a dozen comrades have been sent to the terminal." Evans was overwhelmed by the pressure. "Including them, we can't even gather 300 people. What can we do?"

   "The pressure at the terminus is no less than ours. It would be great to provide support. We have to try to find a way to solve the problem by ourselves." Another comrade folded his arms around his chest.

   "Boom—Boom—Boom—"

  Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the utility room.

  Because the rhythm of knocking on the door was agreed among the comrades, everyone quickly recognized that it was their own people outside, and there was no panic.

  Evans stepped forward and opened the door, letting two comrades walk in.

"Comrade Evans, reinforcements are here." One of the comrades introduced the companions he had brought after Evans re-locked the door, "This is Comrade Hubert, the one sent by the terminal this time comrade's captain."

   "Hello, Comrade Evans." The bookish Hubert shook hands with Evans.

   "Hello, Comrade Hubert, please sit down." Evans didn't expect much support from the bottom of his heart, but he was still warm and respectful on the surface.

   Everyone sat together and introduced each other briefly.

"Laize has a curfew. In order to avoid disturbing the patrolling government troops, other comrades who came from the terminus temporarily stayed elsewhere. Comrade Kerwin, who was in charge of picking me up, and I came over to have a chat first." Hubert To cut a long story short, "Comrade Evans, please tell me about the current situation of Laizein."

  Evans told Hubert about Lezein's current situation and their plan to rescue Verac and other comrades.

  After hearing this, Hubert frowned: "The situation is really not optimistic, and there is almost no room for us to display it."

   "The terminus probably didn't think about head-to-head, otherwise it wouldn't just send a dozen of your comrades over." Evans analyzed.

"Well, we don't go head-to-head. If we had this ability, we would have used it against the Feitier line of defense. This time we still have to try our best to copy the model of the last occupation of Laizein, such as persuading Laizein to surrender. Sergeant Selt. As long as he falls to us, Laizein will be equivalent to returning to the International League of Equality. In this way, we can not only rescue Verak and other comrades, but also use Laizein to attract the Feitier line of defense. The government forces on the side will reduce the pressure on the defense line to the greatest extent." Hubert said.

"I have thought about this too. I think that if we were in the situation half a year ago, we would have been able to convince Celt to fall to us. But it is different now. Now we are at a disadvantage. The Feitier line of defense was almost defeated today. Occupied by the government forces, do you think Celt will join us at this time, regardless of the government generals who are basically victorious?" Evans shook his head first.

  One is a senior general of the government army whose future is about to be settled.

  One is an international alliance of equality that has little prospects, faces multiple crises, and is isolated and helpless.

   Very simple multiple choice questions.

  For the core personnel of the government army, such an option may not exist at all.

   "Or use money to buy the other party? This is impossible, we can't spend much money, and the other party will definitely not take a path with a high probability of death for money." Evans sighed.

"Neither, we rely on threats." Hubert took out a file bag and handed over the information to the comrades present to read, "This is the handle about Celt collected by the Intelligence Department recently. He In Laizein, many officers lied about the actual number of the International Equality Alliance action team and the number of people arrested, and exaggerated their own achievements. In order to cover up the secret, he killed the director of Laizein’s intelligence agency, Alger, and deliberately released all the prisoners in the prison. Evidence. It can be said that half of the reason for Laizein's riots some time ago was his fault."

   "This..." Evans was shocked when he saw the investigation data of the Ministry of Intelligence.

  Before Laizein’s newspaper published reports that the government forces had arrested dozens or hundreds of action team members almost every day.

  They themselves naturally know that this is a fake, and those arrested are all innocent people.

   But I never expected that the purpose of the government army doing this was just to exaggerate their own achievements.

  In order to show that they have captured many people from the International Equality League, they are capable and hardworking, and they did not hesitate to execute hundreds of innocent people.

   "These bastards..." Capa couldn't stand it anymore.

   "Once this matter is known by the government's President Auston, Celtic will be finished, so as long as we show evidence, there is still a high possibility of persuading him to fall to us." Hubert said.

  Evans pondered for a while: "... If in Celt's view, it is a dead end to join us, and there is still a chance of life if the matter is exposed, then this still cannot drive him to do things for us."

"Yes, this is a problem, and it is also what I most urgently want to solve this trip." Hubert nodded, "I am here tonight, one is to add a few more chips on the basis of evidence, to ensure that I can convince Celt. The other is to choose the most suitable person to meet Celt, and then rely on excellent adaptability to become the last layer of guarantee for this plan."

   "Candidate..." Capa, who was observing, realized that there was something within his own power, "Comrade Hubert, I will go talk to Celt when the time comes."
