Our great nation of China traverses the multiverse.

Chapter 414 Underground

Defense Line 247, Yinshan Mountain Range Front.

In the remote command post of the 48th, 49th, and 7th Army Groups, the 153rd and 156th Combined Arms Divisions, and the original troops stationed here, many commanders and soldiers frowned, staring at the map of the entire battlefront in front of them, and remained silent for a long time.

On the map,

The mountain range is densely covered with various bunkers and trenches, as if they had hollowed out the entire mountain range.

Most importantly,

According to intelligence reports, large numbers of mimicry creatures are gathering in the narrow pass in front of the defensive line!

"Judging from this situation, the other side is going to have a decisive battle with us."

“Something’s not right at the 247 line, something’s very wrong. Last time at the outer line, the enemy made the same preparations and took advantage of our shift to strike hard on the line, forcing us to retreat.”

"They seem to have the ability to predict the future!"

"We must build our defenses flawlessly and leave them no further opportunity to exploit!"

"..."

The silence was broken, and all the commanders and soldiers were filled with indignation.

Faced with these damned mimicry creatures,

Human armies aren't incapable of winning!

Instead, these bastards seemed to have a god-like perspective, always managing to pinpoint the flaws in their attacks.

Fighting them is like playing hide-and-seek.

Ambush and counter-ambush, encirclement and counter-encirclement, ambush and ambush of ambush...

In the end, they were completely disoriented and were suddenly ambushed by a mimicry force that appeared out of nowhere.

And now,

A narrow passage through position 247.

That was the key to their turn of defeat and victory.

The terrain here offers an unobstructed view, making it impossible for mimicry creatures to ambush you!

Also because of this,

The commanders and soldiers, seeing the ever-increasing number of mimicry creatures, also knew that...

The other side must have realized this, so they are preparing for a positional battle.

Since ancient times, positional warfare has been a key aspect of attack and defense.

That's a pure meat grinder!

A heavy atmosphere filled the command room until one of the officers took a deep breath, stood up abruptly, and shouted angrily:

"Fuck you!"

"Dig another foot back on the slope and hide the artillery well. We absolutely cannot let the mimicry ambush our heavy firepower this time!"

"Bomb those bastards to death!"

In the command post, several army groups were reinforcing their defenses.

At the foot of Yinshan Mountain

In the trench, Wang Chongshan, one of the soldiers on night watch at Gate 6 of Hill 33, looked warily at the narrow opening ahead, feeling somewhat uneasy.

The mimic creature swooped down to the ground.

Such a large quantity, exceeding ten thousand, if all of them were laid out, it would be a dense, overwhelming sight.

However, there were only a few mimics scattered around in the field of vision, which was very strange.

"Chongshan, stay alert and don't get distracted!"

Just as the soldier was filled with dread, a passing medic patted him on the shoulder and asked:

"What are you thinking about?"

"Something feels off; it's too quiet across the street."

Wang Chongshan focused intently. He had fought against mimicry creatures on the outer defense line and was a seasoned veteran.

It is precisely because of this,

He doesn't believe that the mimics would actually deploy their forces in such a way, engaging in what is called positional warfare.

In the extensional direction,

Those damn bastards, the flanking force that ambushed them, they practically crawled out of the ground. Obviously, those bastards had buried themselves in the ground, knowing they were going to pass through here.

Wait, ambushing us by burying ourselves in the ground?

"Old Xing, do you think it's possible that the mimics are secretly digging tunnels, preparing to ambush our defenses from below, just like they did in the ambush on the flank of Outer 224, emerging from the ground!"

Wang Chongshan's eyes widened suddenly, and a flash of inspiration struck him.

It's really possible!

Although this is a tactic that mimicry has never employed in the five years since the war on mimicry began,

However, this is absolutely a reasonable speculation on his part.

Because they have the ability to bury themselves in the ground.

Expanding on this, wouldn't it be perfectly reasonable to dig another hole?

"...Your idea is very reasonable. Didn't the squad leader tell us front-line soldiers to take initiative? This is your initiative. I'll find someone to replace you right away. Go and tell the instructor your guess."

As a fellow night watchman at Gate 6, he meticulously observed the area outside the defensive line. Upon hearing Wang Chongshan's speculation, he activated his electro-optical lock and nodded firmly at him.

"it is good!"

Wang Chongshan also thought there was some truth to it and nodded.

Soon, someone was arranged to keep watch for him.

He went to find their team's old squad leader himself.

……

"Uuuuuu——"

As night fell, the piercing roar of jet fighter engines filled the air, and headlights illuminated the area ahead of the entire battle line.

The heavily modified unmanned model of the Seven flew by suddenly at an extremely low altitude.

Under the silver-white fuselage,

It is equipped with a circular auger that significantly impacts the aerodynamic layout.

Of course, Seventh Master didn't care about this impact.

Anyway, it's an unmanned model meant to be used for consumption.

This is a device capable of emitting high-power microwaves. These microwaves, after reflecting off the ground, are received and processed by a processor, creating a general underground effect.

This technology has also been used in archaeology. Due to protection concerns, archaeologists dare not excavate the underground palace of the imperial palace, so some use this technology to get a glimpse of what the underground palace looks like.

The silver fighter jet only made contact with the area above the mimicry creature.

In the light,

A mimicry creature, like a cannonball, launched itself from the ground, ruthlessly cutting off the fighter jet's path.

"Boom!"

Seventh Master, who was flying at an even lower altitude than ultra-low altitude, instantly turned into a fireball and crashed at the foot of the mountain.

And behind,

The data monitoring center has been connected to the command post.

The information officer, sweating profusely, looked at the data Seventh Master had sent back.

"How about it?"

The commander stood aside, his brow furrowed, and asked a question.

Just now,

Wang Chongshan, a veteran of the No. 6 gate of the 224 position, who had previously faced a simulated ambush on the outer front, suggested to his squad leader the possibility of a "simulated tunnel raid".

The intelligence reached him,

He attached great importance to this and immediately arranged for drones to be sent forward for reconnaissance.

Now, it's time for the results!

"The computer is compiling the data; the resolution is 90%, which isn't good."

The informant's forehead was covered in cold sweat; he had figured something out.

"There are unusual echoes underground in front of the position. The computer is mapping them in detail. 100%, it's out!"

With lightning speed, the officer pulled up the image, saw the content, and exclaimed in surprise:
