The telegram sent back by the checkpoint was the latest instruction from the headquarters: Base No. 2 was attacked by the imperial armed forces.
The headquarters ordered all guerrillas who received the instructions to immediately rush to the rescue of Base No. 2.
Xiao Ming and Dao Feng looked at each other and their expressions changed drastically.
Since Caesar sent the warning, the two bases have been fully prepared for war.
The entire army has psychological expectations for the enemy to launch an attack at any time.
However, Xiao Ming judged from the battle on the 28th ship just now that the enemy might not have found the location of the two bases yet.
They were eager to capture Zhou Xiaofei alive for this purpose.
Obviously, the facts proved that Xiao Ming's judgment was wrong, and the enemy had already launched an attack on Base No. 2.
This shows that important figures in Base 2 may have defected to the enemy and leaked its location.
Xiao Ming immediately asked Dao Feng to send another telegram to the checkpoint to ask for details.
Unexpectedly, there was no response for a long time.
According to confidentiality rules, the ground checkpoint is just a communication transfer station.
Firstly, it is responsible for transferring encrypted calls between the two bases; secondly, it is responsible for receiving the guerrillas' coded telegrams and transmitting them back to the headquarters for translation by correspondents.
Under special circumstances, the headquarters can activate the highest order, requiring the checkpoints to proactively contact the guerrillas and give important instructions.
Under normal circumstances, the instructions are also coded telegrams, and the checkpoints cannot understand the content.
This kind of telegraph exchange is naturally not as simple and fast as direct phone calls.
Xiao Ming waited impatiently and asked Daofeng to send another telegram, but the checkpoint was still silent.
Both of them felt something was wrong.
There were only two explanations for this situation.
One was that the telegram from the headquarters had not yet been sent, and the other was that there was a problem with the checkpoint.
Xiao Ming's dispatch was highly confidential, and the checkpoint did not know about it, but the headquarters would know that the telegram just now came from the commander-in-chief, and the password used by Blade was also top secret.
At the juncture of this major incident, the headquarters will definitely respond as soon as possible, and it is impossible to delay for such a long time.
After all, Base No. 2 is under attack, and there is no need to delay, and the fighter plane cannot be delayed.
Now, it is very likely that the second situation has occurred, and something happened to the checkpoint.
In fact, what happened to the checkpoint was not accidental.
In order to rescue Jing Chun, Xiao Ming did not hesitate to violate confidentiality rules and ordered the ground checkpoint to actively contact the guerrillas.
The electronic signal sent out could easily be discovered by the empire's reconnaissance team.
Because after a nuclear disaster, radioactive dust in the atmosphere gathered in the stratosphere, interfering with long-distance wireless signals.
Survivors on the ground could only use short-range wireless signals, whether it was walkie-talkies, telegraphs, radios, or televisions, for signal transmission.
The distance is limited and easy to be monitored.
In order to avoid being taken over by the enemy, the checkpoints have to change locations as soon as possible and re-establish the checkpoints.
However, in order to ensure smooth communication for the rescue operation, Xiao Ming specially ordered the checkpoints in this area to be delayed.
If something goes wrong, he will be the most responsible person.
Now was not the time to hold people responsible.
Xiao Ming immediately summoned Jing Chun, the captains of the 7th and 25th ships, and Dao Feng to hold a brief emergency military meeting.
Everyone said the same thing, but nothing was said except to rush for help immediately.
Maintaining nine to ten guerrilla forces on the ground on the European continent is not only to declare the existence of the Republic, but also to respond quickly when the two bases encounter danger.
The Adam lurking in the Mediterranean Sea is a secret move planted by Xiao Ming.
There is a special checkpoint responsible for communication, which will only be used at the most dangerous moment.
The guerrillas come from two major bases, each occupying half.
Due to the need for confidentiality, each other does not know the location of the other's base.
However, once they receive the highest mobilization order from the headquarters, they must go to the predetermined location to assemble and accept the highest ranking among all captains. leadership and carry out unified actions.
Jingchun became extremely calm after the impulse of the No. 28 ship, and asked: Although the command headquarters issued instructions, it did not issue the code of the highest mobilization order, which was not in compliance with combat procedures.
Is there something wrong?
This is indeed a problem, but it cannot be confirmed because the guerrillas cannot contact the headquarters directly.

The captain of the No. 7 fleet from Base No. 2 was the most anxious, saying that the highest mobilization order might be issued later, but it was interrupted due to a problem with the checkpoint.
This only further illustrates the problem.
The enemy's attack is all-round, not only attacking Base No. 2, but also Remove the Resistance Army’s ears and eyes on the ground and cut off Base 2’s external communications.
Xiao Ming also felt that it made sense.
In any case, Caesar's warning was ahead, and the current situation continues, which only shows that the enemy has really taken action, and protecting the family and the country is the primary duty of every soldier.
To his relief, Base One, the capital of the Republic, did not appear to be under attack.
Xiao Ming made a decision and rushed to the rescue of Base No. 2 immediately.
With heavy snow falling and a dark night, two guerrilla ships and a hovercraft activated the snow and night vision driving modes and headed for the assembly point.
The guerrilla assembly points, although never used, were changed from time to time to maintain secrecy.
However, it is conceivable that this assembly point should be in the middle of the two bases.
No matter which side is supported, it will not deviate too far.
About an hour later, the two ships and one vehicle arrived at the target location.
This is an abandoned agricultural town, covered in gray snow, with no human habitation and no nuclear corpses.
It is surrounded by large farms and fruit trees, which is suitable for digging into the ground and allowing you to advance and retreat.
Four guerrilla groups have arrived and set up a defensive line.
After both parties signaled, they confirmed that they were their own people and then let them go.
Xiao Ming, Dao Feng and the seven captains met in a church.
When everyone saw the commander-in-chief appearing, they were all pleasantly surprised and felt that they suddenly had a backbone.
Xiao Ming said nothing and went straight to the topic, asking how far it was from Base No. 2.
A captain from Base No. 2 immediately answered that the distance was more than 200 kilometers, about an hour's drive.
There are still three guerrillas that have not arrived.
Xiao Ming can't wait any longer and decides to leave a guerrilla ship from Base No. 2 as a support.
He will lead the other five guerrilla ships and set off immediately.
The team doubled in size, with five ships and one vehicle, working in pairs, forming a flight formation similar to a lead aircraft and a wingman, flying quickly over the snow, and like a mixed fleet advancing into the snowy sea.
The hovercraft Xiao Ming is on is the flagship of this fleet.
He kept exchanging opinions with Dao Feng and Jing Chun who were in the same car.
Base No. 2 has 80,000 soldiers and civilians.
It has a larger population than the capital, but only 10,000 troops, which is 5,000 fewer than the capital's garrison.
The only thing it relies on is the three-dimensional protective net.
The structures of the two bases are similar, with three floors with the same functions from top to bottom.
The first floor is the defense area, the second floor is the administrative area and living area, and the third floor is the production area.
As long as the enemy breaks through the first floor, the base is almost taken.
The total strength of these ten guerrillas rushing to the rescue is only 300 people.
If they want to play the role of a surprise force, there is only one strategy: find the enemy's frontline headquarters and launch a "decapitation" operation.
In modern wars before nuclear disasters, the command systems of the two armies were usually in the rear, far away from the battlefield.
They were commanded remotely through satellite communications.
It was not easy to "decapitate".
Of course, it's not without its weaknesses.
At that time, the two old and new powers fought a small-scale, high-intensity, high-tech conventional war around the conflict point due to accidental factors of a third small country.
Both sides even used aircraft carriers.
As a result, the new power that occupies a geographical advantage used space tactics for the first time in human history, blinding some of the military satellites of the old power, making the opponent's frontline troops blind and deaf, and passively being beaten.
This war marked the historical transition between the old and new powers, and is known in history as the "War between the Old and the New."
After the nuclear disaster, due to the inability to carry out long-distance wireless communication, all ground wars were based on on-site command.
War with hot weapons was fought, but the command system returned to the era of cold weapons.
Therefore, as long as the frontline headquarters of the imperial armed forces are eliminated, the enemy's combat deployment can be disrupted and defeated one by one.

The three reached a consensus, and the guerrilla formation braved the wind and snow and gradually approached the nuclear zombie city where Base No. 2 was located.
Xiao Ming did not hear the expected rumble of artillery, nor did he see the expected continuous artillery fire.
The land shrouded in gray snow was dead silent, with a dim snow light, and a dark shadow of the city was vaguely visible among the thinning snowflakes. .
His heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that he was too late?
Base No. 2 had already fallen.
Or, the battle on the ground is over and the enemy has penetrated deep into the base.
Blade subconsciously stepped on the brakes, and the hovercar made a deep hole in the snow, sinking deeply into the snow, even covering the roof of the car.
Good guy, the snow was two meters deep.
The hovercraft resuspended and rose, and the remaining five guerrilla ships also hovered.
In the cab, Xiao Ming and Daofeng looked at each other, both a little surprised.
The captains of each fleet asked the commander-in-chief for instructions and asked him to make a decision.
Xiao Ming asked the captain from Base No. 2 to try to contact the ground checkpoint in the city.
The captain replied that the distance was too far and we had to get closer.
Xiao Ming then ordered to continue moving forward.
In order to prevent being ambushed by the enemy, the ships distanced themselves and formed a fan formation.
Everyone in the formation was feeling uneasy as they got closer and closer to the nuclear zombie city where Base No. 2 was located.
What happened will be revealed soon.
Suddenly, a bright bullet fire pierced the sky and landed in the center of the Nuclear Corpse City.
A huge fireball rose up and the earth shook.
Immediately afterwards, a spectacle appeared in the dark night sky.
Countless bullets and fire passed over the head.
They rushed forward like a meteor shower and landed accurately in the city, making continuous explosions.
One after another, large fireballs competed to rise into the sky. , extremely gorgeous The hovering hovercars and guerrillas barely feel the vibrations of the earth, but you can see the snow on the ground undulating like waves.
As soon as the guerrilla formation arrived, the enemy launched an attack.
Xiao Ming was relieved, which proved that the command's instructions were timely.
"Commander-in-Chief, that's not right."
Jing Chun in the back car thought of something and shouted anxiously through the intercom in the car, "It is impossible for the headquarters to predict the future."
It was like a wake-up call for Xiao Ming and Dao Feng.
They suddenly thought of what Jing Chun thought, and they trembled in unison:
