Chapter 167 Pan-Asian Orbital Airborne Force and a European Town
......
The sky was obscured by dark clouds, and not a single ray of light could be seen. However, one could see rays of fire from hell gushing out from cracks that looked like wounds in the earth, and reflected under the dark clouds, it looked extremely strange.
The surface of the earth, divided by cracks spewing hellish fire, had long since turned into a purgatory on earth, a mixture of scarlet flesh and black scorched earth.
But in this purgatory, there is still a fortress that survives.
It was a small town divided by a river. The red-walled and black-roofed houses and the white-walled and black-roofed buildings along the street wrapped around the undulating spider-web-like stone paths. In the center was a stone church with echoing bells.
In the past, such a European-style town would have been a tourist attraction, but now it has changed a lot.
The roof of the third floor of the cafe standing on the main street of the town has been forcibly demolished, and sandbags have been put on it to set up a crane gun.
The town's streets were interconnected, some filled with small trains loaded with sand, and some filled with the wreckage of buildings, leaving only three main streets with barricades for defense.
Outside the church in the small town of Yawei, the temporary camouflage tarpaulin and ammunition and supplies piled everywhere are the command center of the battalion-level unit of the 104th Orbital Airborne Division.
Among them, a man with a crew cut and a square face wearing power armor was leaning on the table with his hands, looking at the battle map with a frown.
His name is Zhao Wei, the battalion commander of the 104th Battalion of the th Orbital Airborne Division.
With a long sigh, Zhao Wei looked away from the map, his eyes full of bloodshot.
He hadn't slept for two days since arriving in Yawei Town, all because of the restless demons outside. If only reinforcements could arrive...
Thinking of this, he shook his head and muttered to himself with a wry smile.
"Impossible, there are no reinforcements."
Zhao Wei thought back to half a month ago.
Half a month ago, his troops, a fully staffed orbital airborne battalion of more than 500 people, parachuted into Prague to cover the evacuation of local Chinese expatriates and embassy staff.
When we received the mission, I and the other commanders of the unit thought it was just a problem within the European Community, until we landed...
The pungent smoke of gunpowder echoed in the city. Demons from hell crazily slaughtered all living things in sight. Titan demons as tall as buildings crushed the defense lines and high-rise buildings blocking the way.
The local defenders of Prague were easily defeated.
Zhao Wei was forced to leave Prague Starport, protecting the embassy, expatriates and survivors gathered along the way, and collecting diamonds all the way to the town of Yawei.
The orbital airborne battalion, which was once a full-strength unit of more than 500 people, has now been reduced to 100 people, plus more than 50 wounded soldiers.
When he thought of this, Zhao Wei felt a shadow in his heart.
At this time, a soldier wearing an exoskeleton entered the command center and saluted Zhao Wei who was thinking.
"Captain Zhao, Pastor Weiss is clamoring to see you!"
Hearing this, Zhao Wei finally came to his senses and turned his gaze to the soldier wearing an exoskeleton.
This person is the captain of the embassy guard, named Ye Wei, and his team is organized like an airborne division.
It consists of ten people, with four infantrymen wearing powered armor powered by Argent energy, responsible for attacking and carrying heavy firepower, and the remaining six wearing light exoskeletons as flank and cover for the armored infantry.
Speaking of which, when he entered the Orbital Airborne Division, he complained that this organization was a bit like a knight fighting with a few attendants.
Realizing that he was distracted, Zhao Wei shook his head and replied to Ye Wei.
"Let him come to me."
"Yes!" Ye Wei nodded.
After a while.
An old man with a white beard and wearing a priest's robe rushed into the command center. He had a typical European face, and his skinny face was covered with wrinkles like those on the Loess Plateau.
Weiss said to Zhao Wei as soon as he entered the door.
"Zhao, when will the evacuation flight arrive?"
“The church cannot accommodate so many wounded and survivors, and we are running out of medicine and food.”
Zhao Wei responded in a deep voice.
"It's almost time, Reverend Weiss. I hope you can comfort the survivors."
A hint of disappointment crossed Weiss's face.
Soon? This soldier from the East had maintained this convincing attitude since arriving in Yawei Town more than ten days ago.
But now half a month has passed, and no information can be received on the radio. Only the sounds of dead souls and hell echo in it.
The town of Yawei seemed to have become an isolated island, an isolated island on the European continent.
He raised his head and looked at Zhao Wei seriously with his cloudy eyes.
"Lieutenant Colonel, I want to hear the truth."
Zhao Wei looked at Pastor Weiss without saying a word. The air in the command center seemed to freeze at this moment.
But faced with this devout old man, he only persisted for half a minute before he became discouraged.
Looking up, Zhao Wei sighed.
"There's no response on the radio, just noise. Maybe we're the only survivors."
"As for the heavens... the Tiangong space station crashed into the Pacific Ocean a week ago."
After saying that, Zhao Wei raised his head and added.
"But we will fight until the last moment."
