If you look down from the air, you can see that more than a hundred kilometers south of Midnight City, there are many mottled black patches on the white snow, like scars on snow-white skin.
These are the wounds left by the war, and even the continuous heavy snow cannot cover these new wounds.
Limited by the scale of industrial production, new era wars rarely use large-scale firepower coverage, and their environmental destructive power is far less than that of old era wars, but they still leave indelible traces on the earth.
It can be seen from a high altitude that the two armies are facing each other several kilometers apart.
Both sides built simple fortifications based on the terrain, and behind the fortification belt was a temporary camp.
The camps on both sides are very neat, using marching tents with basically uniform specifications.
These tents have basic radiation protection functions and can effectively protect ordinary warriors, especially those with only first-level ability enhancement or even no ability enhancement.
However, people who grew up in a wilderness environment will more or less have mutated tissues in their bodies, and their resistance to radiation is far greater than that of ordinary pure-blood humans.
Although environmental radiation will increase significantly after snowfall, as long as there is limited protection, their survival is not a problem, at least they will be alive in the short term.
It was already dawn and the snow had just stopped.
The ground was covered with a not too thick layer of snow, and the air was still filled with the strong smell of gunpowder smoke.
At the front of both sides' positions, some strong soldiers had crawled out of their bunkers and were vigilantly observing the enemy situation on the opposite side.
Scattered snowflakes began to drift in the sky again, and thick, low-hanging lead clouds almost pressed to the ground.
The vigilant soldiers on both sides looked at the sky, cursed, and wrapped their snow-proof cloaks tighter around themselves to prevent snow flakes from getting into their clothes.
On the southern front, the soldiers' uniforms and military tents were painted with a flame-shooting power mecha.
There is also a shiny piece of metal in the corner of the logo.
This is another large force entrenched in the south of Midnight City, the army of the Alloy Brotherhood.
In the command post in the middle of the camp, several officers almost covered with alloy armor were having a heated discussion around the sand table.
In the middle was a tall officer with a strong beard, his eagle-like eyes staring intently.
The opponent's position on the sand table.
"This damn weather."
A staff officer punched the sand table hard.
"Yes, it's snowing again.
In this case, it may take about a week to launch a large-scale offensive."
Another staff officer said.
The commander who had been silent suddenly said: "Measure the radiation intensity."
A few minutes later, the technical officer took out the environmental radiation data and looked at the upward sloping curve on the screen.
The commander's face was so gloomy that it could be compared with the lead cloud outside.
Launching an attack in this environment will cause irreversible damage to the bodies of ordinary warriors, and the weakest warriors may even have less than a year left to live.
The commander now has nearly half as many troops as the enemy on the opposite side, but is unable to launch an attack due to the harsh environment.
Naturally, his current mood is not much better.
He now commands more than half of the Alloy Brotherhood's army, and there are five power mechas parked in the temporary hangar behind the camp.
But he was not optimistic at all.
Although the number of enemies on the opposite side is not very large, they are commanded extremely well, and they have elite warriors and powerful ability users.
As the top commander of the army, what worries him even more is the enemy's advanced and complete equipment, which means that the opponent has powerful equipment and supply capabilities.
This is the most terrifying enemy.
There are as many armed mobs as you want in the wilderness.
As long as you give them a gun, both men and women will be qualified and dangerous fighters.
This army from the north not only suppresses ability users in terms of rank, but also seems to be vaguely superior to the Alloy Brotherhood in terms of technology and industrial strength.
The commander originally brought out seven powered mechas.
However, as soon as the battle began, two of the charging mechas were destroyed by a dozen infantry missiles flying towards them, forcing him to withdraw.
The mechas were equipped, and these new-era heavy tanks were withdrawn to the protection of the infantry line and used as mobile forts.
After all calculations, only in terms of the number of soldiers does the Alloy Brotherhood have an overwhelming advantage.
Even this advantage is only temporary, and the commander knows this very well.
He blew out two puffs of white air from his nose and asked in a muffled voice: "How much anti-radiation medicine do we have?"

The quartermaster quickly checked the records and said, "269 in total, sir." "269 This is not enough."
The commander's eyebrows almost knitted together, but he couldn't figure out how to repel the enemy with just two or three hundred soldiers.
There are thousands of warriors on the opposite side, and high-level ability users are more dominant in both quantity and quality.
After thinking for ten minutes, the commander waved his hand angrily and ordered to pay close attention to the weather conditions before disbanding and resting.
Just a few kilometers away on the north side of the hill, Li sat lazily, holding a piece of letter paper in her left hand and reading it slowly.
She grabbed a dagger in her right hand and cut the barbecue on the plate in front of her.
Then he picked it up with the tip of the dagger and put it into his mouth.
There were only a few lines of words on the letter, but Li had been reading it for nearly twenty minutes.
Opposite her, Li Gaolei was sitting cross-legged, his broad back leaning on the pillar, and he was concentrating with his eyes closed.
His face has become a little thinner and his skin has become darker.
His broad body wrapped in a leather jacket gives people a sense of security.
Compared with a year ago, he had gone through many vicissitudes, and even had some gray hair, but his aura became more solemn, and it seemed that nothing could move him.
With a snap, Li finally ended the long process of reading the letter and threw the letter to Li Gaolei.
Li Gaolei took the letter, opened his eyes, and glanced twice to see the entire inside.
In fact, there are only three or four sentences in total on the paper, and it would take less than half a minute to read.
"What the hell, you just left without making a sound."
Li cursed angrily and thrust the dagger into the barbecue.
But what happened was contrary to expectations.
The dagger did not penetrate anything, but hit the steel military dinner plate with a ding sound.
It turned out that the roasted meat on the plate had been eaten long ago, and Li's thrust was unexpectedly violent.
The dagger directly penetrated the steel dinner plate.
Li gasped for breath, and under Li Gaolei's calm gaze, she finally said with some reluctance: "Okay, this time at least he left me a letter.
But just a few words, He left without explaining anything, or took that little girl with him who didn’t even have hair."
Li Gaolei smiled and said, "Miss Madeline is not much younger than you."
Li grabbed her chestnut hair hard and said with some frantic anger: "Even if she is not small, I admit that she is good-looking and has a better figure than me.
But so what, he can't bring me with him. "?"
Li Gaolei carefully folded the letter and handed it back to Li, saying, "I think the boss must have a reason to do this.
Miss Madeline has incredible fighting power.
The boss brought her back this time."
Sylvanas also has amazing potential.
The two of them will help the boss, but you and I are just ordinary people.
If we follow the boss, we will probably become a burden to the boss. " "But" Li grabbed her hair in distress, almost tearing it off.
She knew what Li Gaolei said was right, but she couldn't accept Su's approach of abandoning her again and disappearing without a trace.
However, she couldn't find any reason to refute, and her chest felt heavy.
"Besides, it's not like the boss didn't explain anything.
The letter made it very clear that Crane, Midnight City and Steel Gate were all left to you and me.
My understanding is that before the boss comes back, we have to manage them for him.
This land.
In fact, it is very difficult to maintain such a large territory with our current capabilities," Li Gaolei said calmly.
"Manage it for him.
Didn't he say in the letter that all three cities are left to us?
We can do whatever we want.
Huh, what a big deal.
This is not a small sum of money.
We are rich."

Li gritted her teeth and said, The letter was snatched from Li Gaolei's hand and torn into pieces in a few blows.
She casually grabbed the wine bottle next to her, smashed the neck of the bottle, drank most of the bottle of liquor into her stomach in a few big gulps, and then smashed the bottle to pieces on the ground.
Li had enough to drink, but she drank too quickly, and her face turned bright red in the blink of an eye.
The strong smell of alcohol began to emanate from under her delicate skin.
Li suddenly laughed and said while laughing: "Three cities, hehe, you men all think you know what I want."
Li suddenly pulled off her shirt, stared directly at Li Gaolei, and said word by word: "Do you want a woman?
Do you want me to give it to you now?"
Li Gaolei smiled bitterly and said, "This is not what you want.
If you really do it, I will regret it afterwards, and you will regret it too.
The boss is a good man, a rare good man.
I believe that if not He will not leave suddenly if he has to."
At some point, Li's eyes were filled with tears.
She whimpered, cursed, and said, "But I want a man, what should I do, what should I do?"
Li Gaolei sighed, but didn't know how to comfort him.
Li is very stubborn and fragile at the same time.
Li, who used to be full of foul language, is actually still a child.
Li suddenly wiped away her tears, stood up suddenly, and said viciously: "Since I don't have a man, I have to find a way to get rid of the anger.
Damn it, come here."
A burly warrior with a ferocious face entered the tent in response, but when he saw the lioness-like Li, he trembled with fear.
"Go and open all the boxes marked No. 1 to No. 7 in the warehouse, and distribute the potions inside, one to each person.
I need everyone to be ready for battle within ten minutes."
Li was calm and deep when giving orders, completely transformed. a person.
The snow outside is getting heavier and heavier, and the radiation has reached dangerous levels.
Except for the strong elites like the messengers, ordinary soldiers cannot move in this environment at all.
After leaving a radiation-resistant tent, ordinary soldiers would suffer fatal injuries in just one hour.
The messenger's face was a little pale, but he did not dare to disobey Li's order, so he could only leave the camp to convey the military order.
Only Li Gaolei knew that those seven boxes contained anti-radiation medicines, enough for all the soldiers.
Li had brought them with her since the day of departure.
The battle had been going on for almost a month, but she had never used them
