Chapter 31 An Unexpected Gain

Including the two high-explosive shells used for calibration.

Amber fired eight shells at the less than 20 imperial infantrymen who were sneaking through the woods.

Although this kind of firepower is completely excessive for an infantry unit of less than 20 people.

But to be honest, Amber has even less confidence in his mobile infantry.

He would rather fire a few more shells than have more wounded or even dead in the team.

And these eight 120mm high-explosive shells did work.

Under the calculation of the artillery terminal and Amber's front-line calibration.

Except for the first round of calibration by Group B, which missed.

The remaining seven mortar shells all landed accurately at the designated landing point.

The killing range of the high-explosive shells perfectly covers the combat search formation of this imperial infantry squad.

With the support of a large number of digital terminals, even these ordinary soldiers that Amber "picked up" on the road.

They can also fire mortars as accurately as veterans.

Of course, the combat awareness of the veterans is still completely overwhelming.

It's just that with the help of these devices, these ordinary soldiers can greatly narrow the gap between the two sides.

But everything has its two sides.

Digital terminals and squad-level data links have indeed greatly improved the combat effectiveness of ordinary infantry.

Exoskeleton equipment and intelligent weapons have also raised the combat effectiveness of all soldiers.

But it is precisely these information-based auxiliary equipment that has become a breakthrough in the battle.

Electronic warfare has gradually sunk from the strategic and tactical level of large troops to the most basic infantry combat level.

In addition to the "passionate shooting", the confrontation between squads also joins this kind of smokeless battle.

Whoever can gain an advantage in electronic warfare can take the initiative in the battle.

Just like the imperial team in front of Amber.

They happened to meet Amber, an electronic warfare veteran.

Even more unfortunately, Amber also has an ultra-short wave reconnaissance jammer.

Obviously, the jamming power and output of the vehicle-mounted equipment are far stronger than that of individual equipment.

After the last two shells hit the ground and exploded.

The mobile infantrymen on the ‘starting line of attack’ launched a charge with the sound of the ‘simulated charge whistle’ coming from the headset.

The two squads, totaling 18 soldiers, were all the full-time mobile infantrymen in this convoy.

However, the artillery effect of the indirect fire group might be too good.

When these mobile infantrymen maintained their battle formation and dispersed the smoke near the landing point of the shells.

Only the imperial soldiers fell to the ground.

But despite this, these mobile infantrymen still listened to Amber’s words.

After all, Amber was not only a psychic agent, but also the one who saved them from the ‘desperate situation’.

They didn’t care whether the imperial soldiers on the ground were dead or not, and they shot them first when they saw them.

“Safe!”

“Safe!”

When the mobile infantrymen finished shooting at the last imperial soldier on the ground.

Amber heard their report in the communication channel.

After putting down the ‘ghost’ sniper rifle on the mount and removing the optical invisibility.

Amber jumped down from the tree and walked towards the battlefield.

"Captain Amber, come and have a look. These Imperial soldiers seem to be different from the ones we met before!"

The slightly surprised shouts of the mobile infantry in the communication channel made Amber curl his lips.

The garrisons on the border agricultural planets are still prone to making a fuss.

Just some Imperial orbital paratroopers, what else can be different?

But when he got closer and saw these Imperial soldiers with their chests shot into sieves.

Only then did he realize that they were really different from ordinary Imperial soldiers.

"This exoskeleton 'Recurve Blade Type 4'?"

"According to the timeline, isn't this thing not yet in service?"

Amber walked around one of the corpses, whose exoskeleton had a dedicated command antenna.

He was probably the commander of this Imperial infantry squad.

By carefully observing the equipment of this corpse.

He found that these Imperial soldiers were not only equipped with more advanced exoskeletons than ordinary orbital paratroopers.

The weapons in their hands were also a new generation of guns that the Empire had not yet officially equipped and should still be in the test field.

Feeling something was not right, Amber sent away the surrounding mobile infantry.

After watching them clean up the battlefield and assign people to guard.

Amber squatted beside the corpse and reached out to feel around the neck of the corpse for a while.

Then he suddenly pulled off a "dog tag".

The so-called "dog tag" is actually a military identification card worn by soldiers around their necks.

The one in Amber's hand is the standard military identification card of the New Dragon Empire.

He turned to the side with text information printed on it, and saw that the first line on it was the name of the holder:

Herbert Lawrence.

"Hiss, this name?!"

Seeing this name, Amber's eyelids jumped unconsciously.

But he still read the information line by line.

The second line is the service number, and the third line is the imperial social security number and blood type.

The fourth line is the military branch that Amber is concerned about.

"Imperial Army."

Seeing this, Amber has basically determined the identity of the corpse in front of her.

If it is not a duplicate name, this imperial man is a very important person.

Herbert Lawrence.

The commander of the ‘Mongoose’ special operations platoon under the Special Operations Center of the Central Intelligence Department of the Star Dragon Empire.

In Amber’s memory, this person is closely related to something that can overturn the world situation.

“How did I kill this guy?”

Of course, strictly speaking, Captain Lawrence was not killed by Amber.

He fainted after encountering a close-range explosion of a 120mm mortar shell.

He was then killed by an ordinary federal mobile infantryman while cleaning the battlefield.

Amber frowned and thought carefully.

“The ‘Mongoose’ point appeared on Robert IV. Could it be related to that ‘thing’?”

“This time seems to match!”

Thinking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He immediately ordered the mobile infantry to stop cleaning the battlefield and immediately withdraw to the position of the convoy.

These soldiers in the ‘Mongoose’ platoon did not have any supplies, and the ammunition and battery packs between the Federation and the Empire were not interchangeable.

Watching the mobile infantry put away their weapons and began to evacuate to the hidden position of the convoy.

Amber also took off Lawrence's tactical visor and the individual terminal on his arm.

What just flashed through his mind were all guesses after all.

But if he could obtain the built-in storage module of the tactical visor and the information in the individual terminal.

Maybe he could confirm his point of view.

After putting away the two "trophies", Amber immediately ran towards the location of the convoy.

The speed was so fast that he directly surpassed the trotting mobile infantry and quickly left them behind.

Only a cool back was left to these confused soldiers.

"Why did Commander Amber run so fast?"

"I don't know, maybe he was squatting in the tree for a long time and had to pee urgently?"

"I guess so."
