The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Conquering a Sub-base within a month seemed straightforward, but one must understand that in this World, Sub-bases were not abundant!

Each Camp or Faction possessed no more than ten Sub-bases. Although nominally termed 'Sub-base', their strength and importance were scarcely inferior to the main Base.

The destruction of a Sub-base signified a potential threat to the main Base itself.

Over the years, the number of Sub-bases annihilated could be counted on one's fingers. The condition set by this General was, frankly, a monumental trap!

General Paxton was about to speak when Su Chen preempted him, asserting, “Accepted.”

“Ah...” General Paxton sighed inwardly. Once spoken, it was too late for changes now.

A trace of a smile appeared on the General's face. “Excellent, worthy of the leader of the Super Soldiers. You may now employ all the power of a Sub-base. I look forward to your success.”

After the meeting, Su Chen immediately gathered the six Super Soldiers. Even if Hazas was discontent, he had no choice but to obey Su Chen’s commands.

They were within the Soviet Union Camps or Factions, where disobedience was not tolerated. Su Chen had full authority to discipline Hazas severely, and not even the General could intervene. Those were the rules!

The years of warfare amongst the four Camps or Factions had made them thoroughly familiar with each other’s capabilities. If too many Super Soldiers appeared in a battle, it could escalate into widespread conflict, which wouldn’t bode well for Su Chen.

“I’m aware. I've called you here because there’s something I need you to do,” Su Chen responded indifferently. His gaze swept over them, sending a chill down their spines.

“Whatever it is, boss, consider it done!” Boris grinned.

The other Super Soldiers remained silent, all eyes on Su Chen, awaiting his instructions.

“I need you to harass one Sub-base from each of the three major Camps or Factions, creating chaos.”

After a pause, seeing Su Chen had nothing more to add, Boris scratched his head. “That’s it? Shouldn’t we hit them harder, like seizing one of their Sub-bases?”

“No need. Just do as I’ve instructed. If they deploy more than three Super Soldiers, you may temporarily retreat, but the harassment must continue.”

Given these were Su Chen’s orders, the six Super Soldiers had to comply.

Some time later, Su Chen arrived at a Soviet Union Sub-base, assuming temporary supreme command, granting him access to all its resources.

In essence, there was little difference between a Sub-base and the main Base, with similar buildings, weapons, and essentials.

The distinction was that Super Soldiers would usually only be stationed at the main Base, with Sub-bases typically lacking such heavy guardians.

At that moment, the six Super Soldiers, leading a significant force from within the Sub-base, launched a direct assault on three Sub-bases belonging to the three major Camps or Factions. To an onlooker, it seemed as though the Soviet Union intended to strike all three Camps or Factions simultaneously.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Even the six Super Soldiers believed that Su Chen would secretly follow one of their teams to seize a Sub-base opportunistically.

However, they were unaware that Su Chen had no such intention. His target was not these three Sub-bases, but… another Sub-base!

“With six Super Soldiers deployed, we should be drawing considerable strength from the three major Camps or Factions. The defenses at the other Sub-bases should be much weaker now,” Su Chen thought.

Determined to raid a Sub-base single-handedly, Su Chen had to make the best choice.

Among the Allied Forces, Yuri, and Empire of the Rising Sun Camps or Factions, the latter was a non-option. With his current strength, Su Chen could handle Mechas, but the presence of a certain Lily and her formidable psychic powers was a decisive factor.

The Allied Forces seemed a reasonable target. Despite their technological prowess, they weren't invincibly strong on an individual basis.

However, Su Chen ultimately chose the Yuri Camps or Factions. Though he lacked Psychic power, the protection from the System granted him immunity from Psychic control, greatly aiding his infiltration into Yuri territory.

With his target selected, Su Chen stealthily departed the Base under the cover of night.

The nearest Sub-base of the Yuri Camps or Factions was quite a distance from the Soviet Union Camps or Factions. But with significantly advanced technology, various tools allowed for quick and convenient travel.

Su Chen was currently flying a single-person aircraft, heading straight for Yuri’s Sub-base.

“I wonder if Yuri’s Psychic detectors will discern my intentions or identify my route,” Su Chen pondered. But even if they did, it hardly mattered. Yuri’s territory was under constant attack, with countless incursions happening daily.

Hours passed, and dawn was breaking when Su Chen landed his craft about two hundred kilometers from the Sub-base, intending to cover the remaining distance on foot.

He had learned that Yuri’s Psychic detectors could only scan an area within a two-hundred-kilometer radius. Beyond that, they were ineffective.

Moreover, these detectors weren’t infallible; many techniques could evade their scanning. Su Chen wore a cloak resembling a disposable raincoat, effortlessly rendering the Psychic detectors useless. As long as he could avoid the various patrol squads along the way, he would infiltrate Yuri’s Sub-base.

As a Super Soldier, Su Chen was swift, covering hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye.

He hadn’t traversed many kilometers before discovering a well-camouflaged machine-gun bunker, housing several Yuri Recruits and a Beastman.

Further encounters with various Yuri forces followed, including Yuri Clones and Libra clones, indicating the presence of Libra within the Yuri Camps or Factions.

“I truly wonder if this World’s Libra is the same as the one I know,” Su Chen mused, a smile playing at his lips as he continued, stealthily advancing towards the Sub-base ahead.

Gradually, the outline of the distant Sub-base came into view — his target.

The simplest way to take down a Sub-base would be to deploy a Superweapon, instantly obliterating the Base.

Unfortunately, with the leakage of all Superweapon data, especially regarding the Iron Curtain Device — a defense impervious to any Superweapon — a stalemate had ensued among the four Camps or Factions.

Even if Su Chen possessed a Superweapon, it would be futile. He had only one alternative.

That was to first destroy the Sub-base’s Iron Curtain Device, then use the Base’s own Superweapon for total annihilation!

“Tsk, I used to play this mode on computers, never expecting it to be so thrilling in person,” Su Chen licked his lips, his gaze fixed in the distance, waiting for the opportune moment. (To be continued)
