It Is Not Easy To Be A Man After Travelling To The Future 855 Shock!

"Ask Lin Zhong-qing to do it," Ling Lan replied immediately. She trusted Lin Zhong-qing's ability. He would be able to guard Base 013.

"I understand," Li Lanfeng said as he took Ling Lan's cloak which was placed on her chair.

Ling Lan narrowed her eyes. Li Lanfeng felt Ling Lan's gaze and smiled. "Lin Zhong-qing will be able to guard the base alone. He doesn't need me. You can't leave me behind anymore."

'Leave him behind? What is he saying?' Ling Lan was speechless. Li Lanfeng was getting more and more shameless by the day.

"You know that I'm going out, right?" Ling Lan asked in frustration.

"If you are not, you won't be our regiment commander anymore." Li Lanfeng smiled as he helped Ling Lan put on her coat. He understood Ling Lan's character very well, so he knew that under such circ.u.mstances, Ling Lan would enter the battlefield personally and lead 250 Ace Mecha Clan in this war.

"Tsk!" Ling Lan clicked her tongue unhappily as she pulled her cloak on. She realized that she was unable to throw this annoying person off anymore. Honestly, she wasn't quite happy when her thoughts were seen through by someone else. However, Li Lanfeng was a sensitive person, so it was understandable that he was able to see through her thoughts.

Soon, the two of them walked out of the command center.

At the same time, Lin Zhong-qing received the order to stay in the base from Ling Lan. He rushed to the command center but he was one step behind. Ling Lan and Li Lanfeng had left. They only left a video and let the mainframe (Little Four's bot) to explain the situation to him.

On Hailiya's side, when the army Ni Duola was leading was about to enter the territory of Base 013, He'er Li suddenly asked them to stop and rest temporarily.

Before they even started this attack on Base 013, Ni Duola had already received a stern warning to always listen to He'er Li's commands, so when he received the stop order, he didn't hesitate to stop the Hailiya army, even though he was suspicious of the order.

After some time, he suddenly realized that all of their mecha operators were unable to contact their command center, resulting in the mecha operators to be in a panic state. They then saw a signal coming from the mecha operators from the Hela Ace Mecha Clan, asking them to change their channel so they quickly calmed down and changed their channels. They had been trained professionally before, so they were able to maintain their composure and do what is required of them. Finally, after tuning their channel, they received a signal.

He'er Li's stern voice sounded on the channel. "Don't panic. This is a plan by our side. Besides your own team's channel, we will be using this channel to communicate from now on. Everyone, please take note."

Under Senior Colonel He'er Li's arrangements, the mecha operators from Hailiya became orderly again. He'er Li waited for all the mecha operators to get used to the situation before continuing, "Make your last preparations for the upcoming battle in three minutes. The countdown of the three minutes starts now."

All the mecha operators turned serious as they waited for the three minutes to end.

At the same exact moment, within the territory of Base 013, numerous mechas were zooming around in the air. The mecha operators had all made their preparations so they quickly organized themselves.

"250—mixed team 01 has gathered…"

"250—mixed team 02 has gathered…"

"…"

When they got on the battlefield, the ten team leaders of 250 Ace Mecha Clan started organizing their team members into small teams immediately. This included the mecha operators from Evil Wind who were added temporarily. One small team consisted of three mechas, so that the rapport between the mecha operators was not undermined. The mecha operators from Evil Wind worked together while the mecha operators from 250 Ace Mecha Clan formed their own small teams. The only difference was that these two mecha clans were now moving together.

While 250 Ace Mecha Clan were busy organizing themselves, the other mecha clans in the base were doing the same thing too. They had received news from the scouts team and knew that this upcoming battle was not a small skirmish. This time, the mecha operators Hailiya sent were numerous in numbers with high capabilities. It would be a hard battle.

The mecha operators who were still waiting in the mecha hold started chatting with each other. "Old Gu, do you think that the new commanding officer is giving us an opening gambit when he ordered almost all of us in the base to move out? We have never let everyone out before. Also, we didn't receive any news that our opponent is attacking us."

To ensure the safety of the base, not all the mecha operators would be sent out, as this was to ensure that their opponents would not be able to sneak an attack onto the base. Hence, when Lin Zhong-qing ordered all the mecha operators of the base to move out using the name of the commanding officer, many people had qualms about it.

"Don't think too much. So what if it's an opening gambit? If it is, we would just going out to have a stroll in the park. However, if there actually are enemies out there, it's better for us to be prepared. We lost contact with the central command this time, so it's better to be safe than sorry." Old Gu felt that it was good to make ample preparations.

"I know. I just wonder why the JMCs became so inefficient. We waited for so long but it's still not our turn yet." Old Li got impatient while waiting for his JMC to eject him so he talking bad about the JMCs.

"d.a.m.n it, are you saying that we are inefficient? Then, why don't you eject out of the base without our help!" A lady's shout suddenly came from the JMC channel. 'F**k, my throat is already burning because I have to send you all out. Yet, someone is complaining that I'm inefficient…'

"Old Li, you didn't turn off the JMC channel?" Old Gu felt cold sweat on his forehead.

Old Li looked at his control panel. The b.u.t.ton for the JMC channel was green. It meant that the JMCs had heard everything he said just now.

"… I forgot." 'Did I forgot to turn off my mic when my JMC told me to wait?' Old Li got a shock but he still got angry at the JMC for scolding him. He felt that he was disrespect as he was used to being treated with respect by the JMCs. He sneered. "Isn't that the truth? You made us wait for such a long time. Isn't that because you all are inefficient? Plus, your att.i.tude towards your superior is bad too. Looks like you don't want to work as a JMC anymore. What is your number? I want to complain about you. You should leave the army and go back to the kitchen."

"Complain? Number? d.a.m.n it, are you threatening me? I'm calling the mecha logistics department…" The JMC was not afraid of the threats. She just immediately contacted the mecha logistics department. Old Li suddenly saw the logisticians servicing him chatting with the JMC through his communicator. After the logistician hung up the call with the JMC, the logistician pressed a b.u.t.ton on the sidewall and his mecha was sent back to the mecha hold. He was supposed to be number 138 in line but now, he was back in the mecha hold. This meant that he was not allowed to be ejected anymore.

Old Li was furious. He opened his c.o.c.kpit and shouted at the logistician, "F**k, what is the meaning of this? How dare you move me back to the mecha hold. Are you not allowing me to be ejected?"

The logistician glanced at him and said calmly, "I feel that your current mental state is not suitable for mecha piloting. Please go back to the mecha hold and calm down first. I am responsible for your life, so please do not make things difficult for me."

"You are taking revenge for that JMC! I will not stand to be disrespected!." Old Li burst in anger. He closed his c.o.c.kpit in a fit of anger and started to rev up his mecha engine. He wanted to force his way out of the mecha hold.

Suddenly, a siren immediately went off in the mecha hold, and the mecha automatically shut down. Then, an officer with the disciplinary scarf on his right arm came and pulled him out of his c.o.c.kpit.

"Let me go." Old Li struggled but the disciplinary officer was miles stronger than him. He was unable to break free.

The officer didn't give him any chances of explaining his actions. He just dragged him to the door of the mecha hold. Old Gu was frightened by the scene. 'When did the JMCs become so tough? Even the logisticians are much fiercer. The disciplinary officer is so rough too.' He also saw the logistician moving his fingers furiously when Old Li was revving his mecha engine, and that logistician took control of Old Li's mecha in an instant by manually controlling it using his insanely fast hand speed. His hand speed was already much faster than them.

"a.s.sistant Head He, thank you." The logistician replied calmly. The person in charge of watching over the mecha hold was He Chaoyang. The mecha hold was an important place, so the people that Lin Zhong-qing sent here were all elites of the logisticians. This was to ensure the safety of the mecha hold.

"Zhou Yu, luckily, you are really fast in controlling the mecha. If not, something bad might have happened to you." He Chaoyang could still feel his heart pumping.

"a.s.sistant Head He, you're being kind. Even if I didn't do that, you will still be able to make use of the number lock on the c.o.c.kpit and control the mecha with ease." Zhou Yu didn't accept the compliment. He knew that there were many ways to control the mechas, even without him, other people could stop Old Li too.

"Regiment commander just took over the base so there will definitely be some people unwilling to follow him. We must all be careful," He Chaoyang said. Although they weren't on the battlefield, the pressure on them was great too in the base. The pressure on them might be even greater than the pressure on the battlefield.

He Chaoyang left with Old Li on his shoulder. This scene suppressed the mecha operators that were unhappy with Lin Zhong-qing's order. They finally understood that this base was no longer under Du Mingyi's command. These JMCs and logisticians were a lot scarier than the ones before. The arrogant mecha operators instantly retracted their temper and cooperated with their JMCs obediently.

The ejection of mechas become smoother and faster after this episode. Initially, one mecha was ejected per minute. Now, two to three mechas were ejected per minute. The JMCs, who were extremely stressed, heaved a sigh of relief when they saw the rate went up.

They wanted to be efficient too but the mecha operators were just not cooperating with them. They didn't know what to do. Another reason why they were so inefficient was that the JMCs of the base was not as hot-tempered and daring as Han Xuya. Only she was able to scold the mecha operator and even asked the logisticians to teach him a lesson.

Yes, the JMC who flared up at Old Li and punished him was Miss Han Xuya. She was the Han Xuya who got pampered by the Lingtian Battle Team and 250 Ace Mecha Clan, so how could she stand such treatment? Truthfully, she had already lost her patience towards theses mecha operators who were making things difficult for them, and was just waiting for a person to lay her hands on so that those irritating mecha operators would know that this was not their turf anymore. If they wanted to have a good time, they must listen to them nicely and stop playing those cheap tricks.

Hence, Old Li got picked out by her. He was unlucky.

At the base, Han Xuya, Zhou Yu, and He Chaoyang managed to suppress the unwilling mecha operators and get them to cooperate with them. Outside the base, 250 Ace Mecha Clan had finished organizing and started to move out. After moving out for a while, they finally saw the Hailiyan army.

When they saw the swarm of mechas rus.h.i.+ng at them, the mecha operators from the Federation were dumbfounded. They finally understood why Regiment Commander Ling pushed all the mecha operators out of the base in such a hurry.

'He must have already predicted that Hailiya's target is our base.' Thinking about it, Base 013 was the weakest base of the frontline, so it was the easiest base to take over. If Hailiya really wanted to attack a base, Base 013 would be their first choice. They then suddenly remembered how they lost contact with the Federation. The smarter mecha operators guessed that this must be done by Hailiya, and their aim for doing this was to cause a frenzy among them so that they were unable to form a proper defense line, making it much easier for Hailiyan army to siege them

This was actually a predictable matter, but no one was able to pick up the clues and make sense of it other than the calm and decisive Regiment Commander Ling. Even if someone noticed this, who would have the guts to go through the plan and order all the mecha operators to move out of the base? What if he made the wrong guess and the other party decided to attack the base instead. With their empty base, the Hailiyan army would easily take over their base, and the mecha operators wouldn't have a home to go back to anymore.

All the mecha operators, whether it was a regiment commander or a team leader or a normal mecha operator, started to respect Ling Lan. Only Regiment Commander Ling had the ability to be the commanding officer of their base. If it was Du Mingyi, he might have asked them to protect the base until the base got destroyed.

Of course, their current situation was no better than staying at the base. However, they were at least able to fight with their opponents now and didn't have to be locked up in the base like a caged animal. If they got injured, they would still have a base to go back to and recuperate before continuing the fight.

All the mecha operators raised their beam guns without the command of their team leaders. They were waiting for their opponents to enter their beam gun's range.
