The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 220: Divide and Conquer

Su Chen only had 15 Yuri recruits and a mere five Beastmen. With such a small force, even if they won the battle, it would likely be a close call.

In this situation, the best course of action was to minimize casualties and maximize gains.

Beastmen were the only units capable of fighting Tank, but they had a significant disadvantage in that they had to engage in close combat. Conversely, Yuri recruits had to maintain some distance in order to output damage; if they got too close, they would be picked off by the enemy's Soldiers.

Frowning at the map, Su Chen suddenly noticed a small canyon where the enemy would pass through. Though it was only a few meters deep, it was enough to give Su Chen an opportunity.

With the Yuri recruits' ranged attacks, they could stand atop the canyon and deal significant damage to the enemy. Their psychic powers were amplified by their helmets, making their attacks even more potent than those of Soldiers. As long as the Beastmen could suppress the enemy's Tank, the rest would be easy.

When the enemy arrived at the canyon, the Beastmen descended from above and landed directly on three Grizzly tanks. No matter how the Tanks fired their cannons, they couldn't hit the Beastmen.

The enemy soldiers panicked and fired at the Beastmen, and that was when the Yuri recruits struck. With their unstoppable psychic attacks, they caused flames to erupt from the enemy's bodies. The damage was significant, and within seconds, one Soldier had been burned to death.

The battle lasted less than a minute. All of the enemy Soldiers were dead, and the three remaining Tanks were heavily damaged and quickly destroyed after the Yuri recruits joined the fight.

From this battle, Su Chen realized that Red Alert was no longer just a game; it was a whole new world. At least in the game, Su Chen couldn't have made the Beastmen jump onto the Tanks, but in this world, anything was possible.

Su Chen lost one Beastmen and the remaining two were severely injured, but in this place, a character only needed to stay still to slowly recover their health. Su Chen wasn't worried.josei

As the saying goes, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Su Chen was preparing to give his enemies a big surprise.

He quickly established an outpost in the canyon, with ten Yuri recruits, five Beastmen, a virus Sniper, and a Yuri clone. Su Chen then worked hard to produce various units. He needed to strengthen his forces and wipe out an enemy faction.

At the same time, Su Chen noticed that the gold mine next to his base was exhausted. For the other two bases, this would be a cause for concern, as they would need to search for a new gold mine. However, for the Yuri faction, Slave Miners could move and find new gold mines on their own. Su Chen only needed to send out some troops to protect the Slave Miner's safety.

To his surprise, the Slave Miner found a gem mine! Seeing all the gems lying around, Su Chen smiled. With this new source of income, his funds had just grown significantly.

Within just a few hours, the enemy relentlessly sent various units to harass Su Chen's development. However, Su Chen was not one to be trifled with, and he quickly wiped out all of the Invaders while occasionally sending Soldiers to deal with the enemy's mining vehicles.

Once the mining vehicles were gone and no longer providing funds, the base's development would come to a standstill. This was the biggest problem for any base.

The enemy seemed to know this, as they had stationed troops around every gold mine. Unfortunately for them, their enemy was Yuri.

A Yuri clone took control of a Soldier and used it to attack other Soldiers, successfully taking out one before being killed. The clone then used the same tactic to wipe out all of the Soldiers protecting the mining vehicles, leaving only three Tanks for the Beastmen to deal with.

Under Su Chen's remote control, the Beastmen moved in an S-shaped curve and destroyed the Tanks. Seeing their forces wiped out, the armed mining vehicle attempted to escape, but was taken out by a Yuri recruit lying in ambush.

Su Chen knew that he had to retreat after winning this battle, or the enemy's larger forces would come and wipe out his own small army.

As expected, the enemy forces arrived shortly after Su Chen's Soldiers left. To his surprise, they had over a dozen Tanks, including Light Tanks, indicating their abundance of resources.

As time passed, Su Chen focused on building various types of units and attacking the enemy's mining vehicles to keep them economically disadvantaged.

Perhaps due to Su Chen's frequent harassment, the enemy sent a large portion of their forces to protect the gold mines. This was Su Chen's chance.

Unlike in the game, the map was very large, and it could take half an hour to travel between a gold mine and a base. With so many forces protecting the gold mines, the defense of their base would inevitably be weakened.

Su Chen sent out half of his forces to take out the Soviet Union faction before their Superweapon appeared. He knew that if he waited for the Superweapon to appear, his time would be even more limited, and it would be difficult to destroy two factions before the Superweapon was launched.

As expected, the enemy didn't expect Su Chen to attack at this time. When Su Chen's forces approached the enemy's camp, the Soviet Union finally realized what was happening.

A large-scale battle was inevitable, and just like in the game, the larger forces would prevail. The various defensive weapons were useless, and they could only rely on their own strength to resist.

Unfortunately for the Soviet Union, their armed mining vehicles required too much transportation time, and their economy was falling behind. Their forces were completely inferior to Su Chen's, and combined with Yuri clones, Mind Control Vehicles, and the only super unit YuriX, the Soviet Union's defenses were easily broken.

The battle was over in less than ten minutes. All of the Soviet Union's buildings were destroyed, and all of their units outside were instantly immobilized.
