Chapter 892, Chariot
Now, P5092 was going to start racing against time.
If all the speculations were true, then he would have to complete the forest defense line before the Fire Seed troops collapsed.
However, this was also equivalent to him putting himself in a dangerous situation, when the barbarians came after the Fireseed troops, the 3rd Division would have to hold the rear for all the routed Fireseed troops.
If it wasn’t for the sake of leaving more forces for the Fire Seed, P5092 could have retreated to the Great Wall, where it would have been safer.
It was also because of this move by P5092 that Ren Xiaosu was certain that the other party’s ideal of retaining the Fire Seed for the human race in the Central Plains was definitely not just lip service.
There were too many people in this world who shouted their ideals, yet collapsed in front of life.
There are also too many people in this world shouting benevolence, righteousness and morality, yet behind their backs they live like maggots.
Ren Xiaosu admired those who had ideals in their hearts and were willing to pay the price for their ideals.
Therefore, this is the reason why he originally intended to help Jiang Xu, Wang Jing, and P5092.
It was just that when Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaoguan traveled north to scout, even the soldiers of the Third Division who had been following him to lay claim to the victory didn’t think that the two could play much of a role in a group battle of tens of thousands of people.
Before Ren Xiaosu’s departure, P5092 seriously admonished Ren Xiaosu, “I know that you are very powerful, even more powerful than most of the Transcendents I’ve seen, and that there is bound to be a place for you in the history of this Transcendent world in the future. But in a war of tens of thousands of people, the margin that an individual can play is actually very small, so don’t try to be brave, surviving is the most important thing.”
Ren Xiaosu nodded her head and replied, “Don’t worry, I won’t try to be brave, this isn’t just a scouting trip, there won’t be any danger.”
“Well, I wish you a safe return,” P5092 said, “From the most rational point of view, you are one of the most deserving fires that should be retained by the human race in the Central Plains, and your priority is definitely higher than that of the ordinary people, I hope that you can understand this.”
After saying that, Ren Xiaosu went north, on the way out he lamented with Yang Xiaoguan, everyone said that everyone was equal, however in the eyes of the fire seed perhaps there had been a leveling out of the human fires that deserved to survive.
Perhaps transcendentalists, scientists, and so on, are a high priority for each other to protect.
This kind of obsession makes people feel strange, as if contrary to the concept of human rights, but when Ren Xiaosu and the other party contact for a long time, and do not know how to refute.
One could only say that every idealistic person above this wasteland was upholding their own principles and walking their own path.
At this moment, if one were to look down from the sky, one would be able to see the remaining five main units of Fire Seed marching rapidly through the wilderness.
The E-33 armored vehicles and E-34 tanks of the mechanized forces were in front to provide cover, and they were like a mobile fortress, pushing the battle line forward.
The infantrymen, on the other hand, followed the mechanized units closely.
This is the most conventional way to cover the battle between the mechanized troops and the infantry, once the enemy is found, those armored vehicles and tanks can quickly become the best cover and firepower to suppress the line of defense.
The tracks of the tanks rolled up the soil, leaving long stripes of marks on the road, and the ground began to become pitted.
To the north of the Sparks, the barbarians were running for their lives, the ground around them being bombarded by tanks as they roared, and every now and then a Matrix heavy machine gun on an armored vehicle would send rocks and dirt splashing up.
The two sides were in a dogfight, and the barbarians were never able to rely on their physical prowess to throw off the Fire Seed troops.
Some of the senior generals of the Fire Seed were happy to see this scene, because as long as this situation continued, it would only be a matter of time before the barbarians were completely annihilated.
This battle today was far smoother than expected.
Only that not all of the senior generals in the five units were blinded by the victory at their fingertips, the 1st and 4th divisions had already begun to slow down their marching tempo at this point, gradually falling behind the slanting rear.
P5092, in order to avoid provoking these generals into rebellion, did not call them directly to order the other side not to advance, for that would have been useless.
But he could have made other efforts, such as having the 3rd Division Army quickly contact acquaintances in other units to start spreading the word about the trap.
It was important to realize that all Spark officers graduated from military academies, and sometimes an officer’s classmates could be spread throughout the entire Spark unit, and now that there was no communication control, and even company level units had their own communication equipment, finding someone wasn’t that difficult.
So when the claim that the front was a trap gradually spread, there were still P5 level generals who began to reexamine this pursuit battle, the most crucial point was that they also felt that tonight was too smooth.
However, just at that moment, there was already a unit of the Expeditionary Corps waiting in the north, and they were surrounded by dozens of cages cast in special metals that were huge and unimaginable.
In that cage, it was clearly a mountain-like stout brown bear that had just awakened.
These were not domesticated brown bears, and after they awoke in the huge cages, they began to roar angrily at the barbarians outside the cages.
The troops of the Expeditionary Corps also placed a pile of black spherical objects at the back of the cage, the surface of the spherical objects was rough and rough, like a shit ball rolled out by a shithead.
Dozens of barbarians with torches set those black balls on fire at the same time, and in just a split second, the black balls burned up and released a large amount of white smoke, carrying a pungent odor.
There was a wind blowing from north to south, so the barbarian stood upwind of the black balls, and the white smoke was blown towards the cage.
The brown bear in the cage smelled the odor of the white smoke and hit the cage like a madman, and the cage began to deform!
Before the catastrophe, brown bears were one of the largest heavy animals on land, up to 2.8 meters in length, weighing up to 800 kilograms, and with a sense of smell seven times greater than that of a hunting dog.
Back then, brown bears were the dominant beasts of the land.
After the northern cities were bombed intensively by nuclear weapons, the degree of mutation of brown bears in the wilderness had reached a frightening point, and very few people knew that the land where the Expeditionary Corps lived and inhabited was the one that had endured the most disasters in the Calamity, and was devastated all over the place.
The Fire Seed executives had speculated that this was probably the reason why the barbarian technological civilization had regressed across the board, and their physical qualities would have evolved en masse.
Suddenly, a brown bear finally broke through the metal cage that bound it, and a barbarian who was slightly closer to it was crushed under the palm of the brown bear when he was caught off guard.
But the brown bear’s sense of smell is too sensitive, that white smoke has its instinctive difficult to resist the flavor.
At this time, shouts of killing came from the south, and the brown bear was attracted by the sound.
In the end, a head of brown bears that broke through the metal cage, under the expulsion of white smoke, actually ran wildly towards the south, like a chariot that had gone berserk.
