From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars

Monton and Telak never thought that the reinforced platoon they sent to the town to search for survivors would encounter such a situation.

According to the news sent back by the forward control company, after the front reconnaissance team clashed with the federal army, the platoon leader of the reinforced platoon first reported to the company headquarters, and then immediately led the troops to the front.

The company headquarters of this forward control company did not stop the actions of the reinforced platoon.

After silently asking the support units to be ready to deal with emergencies at any time, they sent a message to the battalion headquarters of the second heavy synthetic battalion where Monton and Telak were located.

For the actions of their forward control company, Monton and Telak did not think there was anything wrong.

Isn't this just protecting the calf?

No matter what unit it is, it is too common. It is even common to see that if a unit does not have the habit of protecting the calf, then there must be something wrong with the construction of this team.

Although whether it is the front-line reinforced platoon or this forward control company, their actions seem to be to kill first and report later, but they did not make any radical orders, let alone directly lead the troops to start a firefight.

Moreover, when faced with emergencies, even if there are real-time communication methods, asking for instructions from higher levels will still waste precious time.

In addition, Amber has always emphasized that military commanders at all levels should give full play to their "subjective initiative", which also allows Atlas' combat units to respond very quickly when faced with emergencies.

"Terak, what do you think?"

In the battalion command post, Monton, who was originally staring at the electronic sand table, raised his head and looked at his friend.

After hearing his question, the latter stretched out four hairy fingers.

"Do four things first

First, report to the superiors and tell them the current situation and our measures.

Second, emphasize the rules of engagement with the front-line troops, remember our position, and never fire the first shot in a confrontation even if we suffer losses.

Third, let them figure out the other side's unit number, and then we will contact the other side's command level and negotiate.

Finally, contact the group live broadcast team and tell them that we have materials here and can connect in real time"

"Terak, I stopped you from being transferred, and it was indeed the right decision."

Portia Town, western conflict zone

The federal sergeant who was in charge of negotiating with Atlas, or who was originally planning to drive them away by relying on their numbers, never expected that the combatants of this private military company were so brave that they actually planned to fight the regular army on this planet.

Three medium-sized multi-legged tanks quickly dispersed and found a good position to form crossfire. They deployed their mechanical feet to lower the body of the vehicle, and at the same time, the armored shield on the front mechanical feet also rose synchronously and formed a certain inclination.

About a mechanized infantry reinforcement platoon also launched an offensive formation in the direction where the reconnaissance team just appeared.

At the same time, dozens of spider-like robots that had never been seen before, also painted in white, also quickly climbed up the surrounding buildings with various weapons and occupied the high ground.

In addition, the sergeant also received news from the company headquarters of his unit that white-painted HCPs and main battle tanks appeared outside the town of Portia, and the other party was obviously well prepared.

However, this federal sergeant was quite tough at this time, and he still stood his ground with his men, unlike those softies who could only bully the weak and fear the strong, and would retreat when they saw the other side using force.

"You want to go to war with the Federation?!"

"Oh, my friend, you are too flattering to us Atlas."

A burly Roma man came up with an electromagnetic machine gun that was normally used as a support weapon, speaking a not-so-fluent human common language.

It was the platoon leader of the Atlas reinforced platoon that entered the town.

"The Federation is such a big country, how dare we, a small company, go to war."

"What do you mean now?"

"We just hope that you will not commit violence against civilians and respect the "Talles Convention" signed by your country and the Star Dragon Empire in the new calendar year 506. According to my understanding, this convention is still valid for more than 20 years and has not expired."

"I have already told your men before that in the war zone, don't talk to me about international conventions, they are all waste paper!"

Just like when facing the captain of the Totoro team just now, the federal sergeant heard the other party start talking about the "Talles Convention" again, and interrupted rudely again.

The platoon leader of the Atlas ground force was not surprised to hear the other party's words.

He waved his hand, and an armored infantry fighting vehicle not far behind him immediately drove behind him, and at the same time, a camera-like thing installed on the side of the turret also aimed the optical lens at this side.

"Do you want to say it again to the camera? We are broadcasting it to the Federation and the Star Dragon Empire at the same time."

"Old John, come and see! The 'Eye of Truth' has a new live broadcast, right in the war zone!"

"Fuck, it's coming!"

"Bieber, can you connect the line of the big screen to the live broadcast? People come to your bar just because you bought the rights to watch the 'Eye of Truth' live broadcast!"

"Yes, your beer is notoriously unpalatable. Do you think so many people gathered here are really here for your beer?"

"Oh my god, are you executing the Imperials? Good! Kill more!"

"Brother, are you a little too extreme? These are civilians."

"Come and see! There is a suitable customer upstairs!"

Scenes like this appeared in almost all the territories of the Federation and the Star Dragon Empire that had not yet entered the night.

Everyone picked up their personal terminals or looked at the big screen with great interest, and the comments in the live broadcast room were refreshing at an extremely fast speed.

‘Eye of Truth’ is the first social media APP of Atlas Media, the newest subsidiary of Atlas Group.

After Atlas Group became popular due to its neutrality statement and corporate videos, the ‘Eye of Truth’ quickly came out as the third punch in the combo.

Although the public opinion control departments of the Federation and the Empire have tried every means to reduce the popularity of this APP, and even forcibly removed the APP from mainstream software stores.

But they still couldn't block the download link directly provided by Atlas.

As soon as the ‘Eye of Truth’ was launched, it quickly reached the top of the APP download list on almost all colonial planets on both sides.

The reason is also very simple, because the official account in this APP is called ‘Eye of Reality’, which is currently the only channel on the market that can go deep into the war zone for live broadcast.

And it is a live broadcast using the new "quantum entanglement communication technology".

If we talk about the so-called war zone live broadcasts of other media and media companies, they are interviews with soldiers who have returned from the front line in safe camps on the periphery of the war zone, and then edited into videos.

Then the 'Real Eye', which mounts cameras directly on infantry fighting vehicles, HCPs, and drones, really reflects the true situation on the battlefield to all viewers, just as its name suggests.

As the subject of "live broadcast", this unit of the Federal Army immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

Especially after they saw that another infantry fighting vehicle was pointing the mounted camera lens at the wall where the 'execution' was being carried out, and the lens was still zooming in and out, they knew that something was wrong.

Although their current behavior has deviated more and more from an army from a civilized country, at least the officers in the team have not yet become so dizzy that they shoot civilians in front of live cameras.

After seeing a platoon of infantry and armored vehicles coming to support, the federal army non-commissioned officer immediately led them forward forcefully, trying to block Atlas' live broadcast.

Unexpectedly, the platoon leader of the enhanced platoon in front of him directly raised the electromagnetic machine gun and aimed it at his head, and at the same time said in a slightly distorted human common language:

"I advise you to calm down. Do you want the situation to become completely out of control?"
