So, while 011 deployed three mechs, they only actually used two in the battle. The other was used to provide support from the rear, in case the attackers caught them off guard.

The heavy armor is large and heavy, with its thick chassis accounting for 30% of its defense. It can be described as almost indestructible, completely encased from top to bottom, and is the kind of "role" that can remain unmoved even by the wind. It is a heavyweight that can even keep the nose and chassis intact.

This type of mech is not entirely unsuitable for combat. If the elements are used well, they can actually add a lot of combat power to the mech. It is just more suitable for sitting in the rear of the army, where it can attack or defend. It is not a bad way to retreat.

So it became 011's temporary rear camp, where 011 and his entourage of high-ranking officers stayed in the mech, awaiting further instructions.

This heavy battle armor is a comfort type, with a relatively large interior space. Even with more than a dozen people squeezed inside, it still feels very spacious and not cramped at all. This is why 011 decided to use it as their main base and stronghold the moment they saw it.

Although their mechs were designed to hold the line, they still needed to move with the main force. Otherwise, falling behind would separate the entire team, compromising the team's cohesion and continuity. This was something 011, accustomed to being in control, absolutely could not accept.

Speaking of which, we must introduce 011, who is an exceptionally strong individual. Just by looking at his appearance, you can tell that he must have extremely high mental strength in reality. He is nearly two meters tall, with a well-proportioned and powerful physique. The explosive power hidden in his limbs is extremely strong. He is the kind of strongman in this space who is not to be trifled with and no one would dare to fight him alone without bringing two or three people with them.

The only disadvantage he suffered was that he was a lone soldier, or rather, he was a lone soldier in this unified recruitment process.

In fact, the line between command and individual soldier is not so clear in interstellar warfare. As mentioned before, many individual soldiers in history were found to have command talent during their training phase. Some of them expanded their talents, while others focused on developing their own combat capabilities. After all, human energy is limited, and it is generally impossible to achieve all-round development in multiple directions.

Furthermore, being a commander in the military is not a necessary condition for becoming a battle group leader; it's just that having the function of a commander makes it easier to become the alpha of the group. If one truly possesses the authority to lead and intimidate others, selecting a suitable deputy commander to assist them is not out of the question. After all, not all military leaders are commanders, and naturally, not all commanders can become leaders.

Therefore, the common terms "commander," "soldier," and even "mech pilot" are merely functional descriptions and do not represent true status. It's naive to think that graduating with such a title guarantees success. Furthermore, setting aside these abstract concepts, how many instances throughout history have occurred where a single soldier held a position above numerous commanders and generals?
In certain special periods, some special types of leaders may emerge, such as mech pilots who are forced into the role, logistics soldiers who make a comeback, and even ordinary people who have no prior experience or abilities but are forced to lead the battle in times of crisis. So the final standard is still based on ability.

Unfortunately, in this place lacking various tools and resources, only the functions naturally assigned by the system are somewhat usable. Under these circumstances, candidates other than those in command are somewhat limited and find it difficult to lead their subordinates. Otherwise, it's hard to say who is the soldier and who is the general between him and Xilai. Of course, it's meaningless to talk about this now. The distribution of power and interests is often not determined directly by strength. There are many complex factors involved, requiring some unknown games. Getting back to the scene, as a standard individual soldier, although 011 has certain command abilities and a big-picture perspective, he cannot communicate with all his subordinates without any obstacles. Therefore, it is necessary for him to be accompanied by two or more commanders.

Apart from that, almost everyone else is a highly skilled individual soldier. Seventy percent of the personnel inside the cabin, including the pilot and co-pilot, are highly skilled individual soldiers, all with formidable abilities. There is also one person each for reconnaissance, medical, and logistics, and a fairly skilled mech pilot who can check and adjust the mech's status at any time. These poor mech-training students have finally come in handy after the mechs appeared; before, they were mostly more idle than NPCs.

Aside from the dozen or so people in the cabin, they brought nearly 480 men to this "cleanup operation," overwhelming the 300-plus troops stationed on the Biara side in both numbers and equipment. Regardless of the outcome, this will be a battle with a vastly unequal strength, and the weaker side has a very slim chance of winning.

"I really don't understand what Xilai was thinking. Was it really necessary to send so many people?" Nearly five hundred people was a huge sum even for Xilai, who had considerable strength and resources. He had almost emptied his ranks of all the scattered personnel stationed at the various fortified towers to participate in the battle, not to mention sending so many strong individual soldiers—

Although that Yara was indeed very arrogant and had been causing trouble on their border for some time, those of them who knew the inside story didn't seem to have any great abilities. It was more like he had been sneaking around all the way to squeeze some benefits out of Xilai.

For someone who wouldn't even dare to confront you head-on, a violent response is the most appropriate method; the shop doesn't even need 011 to intervene. Just sending half of them would be enough to secure the deal, and the other party might even run away without a fight. However, for some inexplicable reason, Xi Lai actually sent out 011.

Although I don't want to admit it, 011 can indeed be said to be the most trusted general under Xilai. His departure has caused countless problems, and there may be others taking advantage of the situation. Xilai can be said to be quite blind in some aspects. If it weren't for this person... Commander B glanced at the person in the position.

"Any moment of underestimating the enemy is the beginning of defeat." Commander B didn't expect any feedback, just a small complaint, but the usually taciturn person gave such a statement.

Commander B was speechless. He wanted to say he wasn't, but what wasn't he? His words did indeed underestimate the enemy, stemming from his resentment; he felt the other side wasn't worth such a fuss. But it was also true…

"Stop complaining, it's about to begin." Before he could even offer a word of explanation to salvage the situation, 011 Su Rong directly connected to the cockpit screens of the other two mechs, simultaneously acquiring perspectives from all directions and projecting the battlefield they were currently facing in multiple dimensions.
