NieR: Whirlpool

Chapter 156 The war is about to begin

"He's back." 9S said seriously.

"But not completely back." 2B replied expressionlessly.

"He's still wary of us," 9S continued.

"I'm used to it. As long as he's still himself, it's fine." 2B replied calmly.

After a moment of silence, 9S suddenly said, "What will they do to us if the backdoor doesn't work as expected?"

"I don't know, but I'm sure he won't give up," 2B replied.

"We need to think of a solution as soon as possible." 9S frowned and said.

At this moment, 9S remembered something and said excitedly, "Oh, I'll tell the communications officer about this good news first!" Then he opened the communication.

"Hello, Miss Communications Officer, are you here? I'm your smartest Scanner, 9S. I'm communicating with you today because I have some great news to tell you..."

……

the other side,

Ye Feng played with the sword named Pure White Contract given to him by 2B and opened the communication.

Looking at this mechanical life form that resembles Pascal on the holographic projection, he felt a lot of emotions in his heart and couldn't help but marvel at the resources that the original body left for him.

"Sir, what's the matter?"

"Robert."

"Sir, please speak."

Ye Feng paused.

"What do you think about using nuclear weapons to attack the gathering places of enemy machine life forms?"

"gentlemen."

Oppenheimer took a puff of his pipe, blew out a string of smoke rings, and said seriously:

"If the purpose of the attack is to occupy the city, it is not recommended to use fusion weapons. After all, there is no need to occupy a scorched earth."

"I understand." Ye Feng nodded, "Then what weapons can be used against large groups of mechanical life forms? Please recommend them to me."

Hearing this, Oppenheimer's eyes lit up.

"If you say this, I won't be sleepy anymore."

He took another puff of his cigarette and said, "DF11B can carry an improved thermobaric warhead. With one shot, it can absolutely kill any mechanical creature within a one-kilometer radius. Any creature within 300 meters will be blown into pieces, with no chance of resurrection."

"Cow batch!"

Ye Feng was extremely excited and jumped up from the bed.

After thinking for a moment, he looked at Oppenheimer again: "Replace 100 thermobaric warheads first, is there any problem?"

"No problem!" Oppenheimer grinned and laughed like a tractor.

"Are 100 enough, sir? Do you want to consider small-scale tactics..."

"Enough, enough! 100 missiles are more than enough to be dropped in the combat area. What did you just say, man?" Ye Feng couldn't help but laugh and scold.

Oppenheimer's laughter stopped abruptly and he scratched his head in embarrassment.

......

In the bunker,

In the command room, Commander White is holding a pre-war mobilization meeting.

The spacious hall seemed particularly crowded today.

More than two hundred YoRHa combat troops, dressed in heavy black armor and heavy iron helmets, stood in a neat row in the hall, ready to go.

"The enemy's network hubs Adam and Eve have been destroyed, and the command system is in a state of chaos. Taking this opportunity, the human army has decided that our YoRHa unit will conduct joint operations with the troops from the other 11 bases to launch a general attack on the mechanical life forms.

Our goal for this operation is here."

Commander White's high and resonant voice echoed in the hall.

"The YoRHa troops in our 11 satellite bases are divided into 7 teams, attacking the enemy's mechanical life forms in the three eastern provinces of Dragon Country, as well as Hokkaido, Honshu, Kyushu, and Shikoku on Yingzhou, destroying their manpower and occupying power plants, energy stations, factories, headquarters, and network data centers."

"Recall the pain of losing your homeland, the sky, the land, the sea..."

The calm and powerful female voice echoed in the command room hall and was broadcast to the other 10 satellite bases.

"...drive the damned mechanical life forms out of the Earth!"

"May the glory of mankind last forever!"

“May the glory of mankind last forever!”

.........

On the ground, Ye Feng was lying on a bench basking in the sun, smoking an e-cigarette, drinking fat house happy water, and listening to the radio, feeling so comfortable.

"Finally, are we going to launch the ultimate operation?"

He couldn't help but ponder.

but,

There seems to be something wrong no matter how you look at it, there are only so many people in the YoRHa unit.

There are only more than 200 combat personnel in the Kanto Plain area, and it does not look like they can achieve the established strategic goals.

Is this a conspiracy?

Don't think about this question for now...

Ye Feng shook his aching head, flipped over, and got up from the chair.

Ding ding,

"Comms Officer 21O to 9S, 9M,"

"The YoRHa unit in the bunker is responsible for operations in Yokosuka, Yokohama, Tokyo, Chiba, and Takasaki."

"Your unit is responsible for attacking the enemy's mechanical life forms in Tokyo, the front line, and occupying their power plants, mechanical manufacturing factories, and headquarters..."

"Your mission is..."

"...The order is as above. Do you understand?"

“Oh, I see.” 9S stretched and replied lazily:

"Our scanning force must prepare for a general attack, hack into and paralyze the enemy's air defense and communication systems, and must not alert the enemy.

The locations are Ota-ku, Shinagawa-ku, Minato-ku, Shinjuku-ku, and Itabashi-ku." 9S replied.

"That's right, it's great." 21O praised without any emotion.

"I always feel like... you treat me like a child?" 9S said.

"You're overthinking it." 21O said angrily, "We have identified the location of the enemy's air defense command system. They are all areas with strong electromagnetic wave signals. It is estimated that there will be a large number of enemies defending. Please proceed with caution."

"I understand. Please rest assured, Miss Communications Officer, I will complete the mission." Ye Feng, who had been silent all the time, interrupted.

21O smiled,

"For this operation, all other members of the scanning unit have also been dispatched. As a semi-scanning team, we cannot fall behind other areas."

"Yes, we will try our best not to fall behind." 9S replied lazily.

"Don't worry, Senior 9S is a great man in our Yoshiha unit." Ye Feng said with a sneer.

After a pause, 21O reminded:

"Also, 9S, 9M, please stay away from this area during the battle."

"We can't provide support like this," 9S said, confused.

21O glanced at him.

"Scanner machines like yours are not suited for combat!"

9S smiled and said, "Huh? Are you worried about me?"

"No, you will only be a hindrance if you stay on the battlefield."

“That’s too much!!” 9S was a little mad.

The call was hung up as expected, and Ye Feng laughed secretly at the side.

"Senior, let's go."
