Chapter 18
"Time is running out, let the entire army speed up! This distance may be discovered by the opponent at any time. Once the opponent notices and prepares missiles to cover and strike, we will be finished!"
Zhou Zaipeng, who was in the center of the army, said to the weeds around him.
At the same time, he ordered the army to stop crawling and sprint immediately!
500m is not that far.
The rebels all sprinted forward, and after advancing about 200 meters, they heard the sound of countless artillery shooting into the sky.
"The entire army disperses and advances! Concentrate on the target point of the base to attack!"
Following Zhou Zaipeng's order, the 6,000 rebel army was just like the army led by Renqi and Zheng Yue before. They dispersed and advanced in all directions to avoid being overwhelmed by the fire.
Time is neither long nor short.
Facing the opponent's overwhelming firepower, the 6,000-strong army advanced in a dispersed manner, arriving at the predetermined location in less than three minutes!
Fight at close range with the Tucker Star Guards and start a fierce battle.
Once the close combat started, both sides were on guard. No one wanted to damage the Tucker Empire's information transmission base station, and no one used weapons of mass destruction to avoid damaging the base station.
Everything went as Zhou Zaipeng expected.
At this time, exactly one hour had passed since the attack launched by Zheng Yue and Renqi.
"Based on the time, it would take at least forty minutes for the troops chasing Zheng Yue and Renqi to change their marching direction, give up the pursuit, and then return to the Tucker Empire Information Transmitting Base Station."
"According to calculations, it will take an hour for the nearest Tucker Empire army to arrive."
Although the other side has sent a flying army, it is harmless.
The other side did not dare to attack the insurgents with weapons of mass destruction, but the insurgents were able to use artillery to aim and shoot at aircraft! Whether it was a fighter jet or an armed helicopter, they were of little use. At most, they could only shoot with machine guns.
Before the reinforcements arrived, Zhou Zaipeng was not afraid at all.
"The entire army will obey the order and strive to capture the launch base in the shortest possible time."
The battle instantly became intense.
It can be seen that the military force left behind is still strong.
Although the number is only half of the rebel army, the opponents are well-trained imperial troops, even the best of the best.
Although the army led by Zhou Zaipeng and Ye Cao has grown a lot after two years of training, they are still no match.
Fortunately, they were outnumbered and gradually gained the upper hand!
It's just that I'm afraid we won't be able to capture the base for a while.
"What should we do? Prophet, more than 20 minutes have passed and we haven't taken it yet."
"Reinforcements may arrive at any time. If we continue, 40 minutes may not be enough to complete the task. Moreover, once the reinforcements are in place, under attack from both sides, the entire army will most likely be trapped here."
Weeds, who was leading the battle, looked anxious.
Zhou Zaipeng frowned slightly. He really didn't expect that the opponent's strength would still be so difficult to deal with.
It was foreseeable that if the battle continued, capturing the base would be an inevitable result, but by then the reinforcements would probably be in place, and he would not have time to transmit any information.
In this way, this military operation will be sacrificed in vain.
Seeing that Zhou Zaipeng could not make up his mind, Wecao closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath.
Then he opened his eyes suddenly, gritted his teeth, and seemed to have made some important decision!
"Prophet, I have a plan!"
"what's the plan?"
"We can surrender, pretend to surrender!"
"What's the meaning?"
"us···"
As Weedao narrated, Zhou Zaipeng gradually widened his eyes and then shook his head repeatedly!
"No, no, it's too risky! Besides, what's the difference between doing this and committing suicide?"
"No, absolutely not!"
"You can't take the life of a rebel soldier lightly!"
Seeing that Zhou Zaipeng firmly disagreed, the tense expression on Weedao's face suddenly seemed to reveal a hint of relief.
Before Zhou Zaipeng could wonder what was going on, his vision went dark and he fainted.
The next moment, Ye Cao supported Zhou Zaipeng and called to the guards around him.
"Protect the prophet!"
After Ye Cao finished his instructions, he directly ordered all combatants to surrender. At the same time, he shouted to the base guards, expressing his willingness to accept the Tucker Empire's recruitment and surrender to the Tucker Empire!
As the rebels stopped attacking and all weapons stopped firing, the somewhat confused base guards were surprised and at the same time breathed a long sigh of relief!
After a short negotiation, the two sides agreed on a surrender plan.
Everyone in the rebel army surrendered their weapons and accepted the prisoners of the Tucker Empire garrison. At the same time, in order to prevent liquidation after the surrender, the rebel army aimed the few remaining missiles at the Tucker Empire information transmission base station.
Use this as a threat!
If the defenders do anything drastic after the rebels surrender, the rebels will immediately launch missiles to bomb the base!
Soon, the senior leaders of the Kuaitak Army accepted the surrender of the rebel army and accepted the other party's intimidation!
"It's really stupid. Just want to destroy the Tucker Empire's information launch base with a few small missiles?"
"Innocent!"
"Send my order and accept the surrender. Once they put down their weapons and enter the empire's information transmission base station, they will immediately massacre this group of unarmed and unruly people!"
"As for the so-called deterrence missiles, don't worry about it. The Ministry of National Defense has an advanced anti-missile system. As long as their missiles dare to take off, I guarantee that they will only explode in the sky above the launch point!"
These are the exact words of the top military leader of the Tucker Empire.
The order was issued, and the Tucker Empire Base Guards expressed their willingness to accept Weed Cao's surrender.
The surrender operation unfolded in an orderly manner.
Originally marching rapidly on the road, the arriving reinforcements also received the news, and their frenzied advance slowed down.
A row of soldiers arranged by Ye Cao protected Zhou Zaipeng, hiding among the surrendering army, and advanced slowly.
Everyone's weapons were thrown to the ground.
First, the main leading members of the surrendered rebel army must enter the Tucker Star information launch base and accept the other party's prisoners.
The door to the base opened and a group of people slowly entered.
Ye Cao explained everything, settled Zhou Zaipeng who was knocked unconscious by him, and was the first to step into the gate of Tucker Empire's information transmission base station.
The first thing I saw when I entered the door was the commander of the base.
"Hello, dear sir, I am Wecao, the leader of the rebel army. Today I surrender to the empire on behalf of all the rebel army."
"I hope the empire can treat them well."
"As for myself, I am at the disposal of the empire."
Wecao led a group of people, opened his arms, indicated that he did not bring any weapons, shouted loudly, and moved forward.
All soldiers in the base were armed with live ammunition, and their guns were pointed at the people who walked in from the gate of the base.
The commander of the Tucker Base Guard was very happy, with an exaggerated smile on his face.
Chapter completed!
