Base Two's detection equipment factory, for the next few months, will be working at full capacity to produce fifty-seven sets of various models of detection radars designed for Cybertronians, along with mobile detection stations.
Sun Cheng intends to establish an all-encompassing detection network across South America.
Meanwhile, Base Two has placed an additional order for eighteen Unmanned Reconnaissance Aircraft, which they had previously dismissed. They aim to extend the base's detectable range to cover a two-hundred-mile radius around South America.
All of these measures are merely defensive measures to shore up their weaknesses!
Sun Cheng, however, is more proactive and determined.
"There are twelve islands hiding Decepticons... It seems that Starscream's hostility towards me is not to be underestimated..."
With a steely resolve in his eyes, Sun Cheng immediately issued the command, "Notify the fleet and bombing clusters, prepare for action!"
Turning the tables on Starscream, even if it's just an act, had indeed caused them significant losses.
Sun Cheng understands Decepticons too well; soft tactics that work on Autobots are futile with them.
They are like a pack of wolves; once they sense your vulnerability and the scent of fear emanating from you, they will pounce without hesitation, tearing chunks of flesh from your body, or even consuming you until only bones remain.
Faced with such opportunistic wolves, the best approach is to fight back relentlessly, inflict heavy casualties upon them, and make them fear you, so you can enjoy temporary peace.
With Sun Cheng's command, Base Two, which had been holding in their anger, quickly mobilized.
Hynix, three improved Kirov-class nuclear-powered cruisers, six Yassen-class attack submarines, all under the protection of more than twenty advanced warriors, soon left the secret military port in South America, heading in various directions towards the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean.
At the same time, from several sub-bases within South America, a fleet of Golden Eagle fighter jets and bomber planes converted from armed transport aircraft, equipped with optical stealth systems, rapidly took to the skies.
About an hour later, twenty-seven nautical miles southwest of Argentina, an inconspicuous sea island with an area of just over ten thousand square meters became the first target of the relentless bombardment by the Golden Eagle bomber group.
High-explosive bombs and missiles rained down from twenty thousand meters in the sky, leaving countless craters on this inconspicuous, desolate island and erasing all its greenery.
After the bombardment ceased, with several scans from the sea, a communication signal was sent back to Base Two's central Control Center.
"Island 4 cleared, total time: 1 hour and 47 minutes, consumed a total of 325 aviation bombs and missiles, destroyed one suspected Skytiger Legion base, all 23 Decepticon responses previously detected have disappeared, ground forces can now be deployed to clear the battlefield..."
Shortly afterward, another island located more than forty nautical miles off the coast of Brazil, a volcanic island, became the target of an attack.
Once again, it was the Golden Eagle bomber group, and once again, it was a relentless bombardment that lasted for several minutes.
Even because one Earth-penetrating missile struck the dormant volcano on the island that had been silent for over forty years, the explosion immediately triggered increased activity in the underwater volcano beneath the island. It quickly began to spew out scorching lava, turning the entire island into a burning inferno.
"Island 7 cleared, total time: 2 hours and 2 minutes, consumed 119 aviation bombs and missiles. Decepticon base hiding within the volcano triggered an eruption when the Earth-penetrating missile attack occurred. The island is currently burning, and all previously detected Decepticon responses have disappeared. Suggest deploying submarines in the area to prevent Decepticons from escaping from the seabed..."
Off the coast of Ecuador, the Galápagos Islands.
There were five identified Decepticon bases scattered among these islands.
Hynix and three Arsenal Ships sailed to a position one hundred kilometers away from the island group. Hynix also contacted the Decepticons in control on the three Arsenal Ships.
"I'll take care of the Decepticons on San Cristobal Island and Santa Cruz Island. Each of you can choose one of the remaining three islands..."
"No problem, Lord Hynix!"
After a brief exchange, the high-ranking Decepticons on the four vessels remained on high alert for potential Vehicon attacks.
In their warship forms, Hynix and the three Arsenal Ships each locked onto their respective targets.
With data sharing between two drones in orbit and twenty thousand meters above, the missile launch systems on the four warships rapidly opened their hatches. Under strong control, the missiles were quickly transferred from the ammunition storage to the launch systems.
With a low, angry roar from Hynix, missiles carrying a mixture of electromagnetic pulse warheads, high-explosive warheads, and anti-ship missiles ascended into the air and swiftly headed toward the Galápagos Islands.
Inside the largest Decepticon base on Santa Cruz Island, hundreds of Vehicons were becoming restless.
The electromagnetic waves emitted by drones from above had not only locked onto them but also exposed the presence of the drones.
As their presence was revealed, one Decepticon in charge of managing these Vehicons was about to rebuke them and then discuss countermeasures with nearby Decepticons from other bases.
But at that moment, Howling missiles arrived at the island at five to seven times the speed of sound.
"Enemy attack, prepare for battle!"
With a hurried shout, the missiles were already upon them, quickly striking the ground.
In the next moment, the furious electromagnetic pulse radiation caused dozens of Vehicons to emit painful screams.
Simultaneously, thick white smoke began to rise from their bodies.
However, it was far from over!
Amidst the howling, more missiles continued to rain down, guided precisely by the data from the satellites and drones, hitting Decepticons on the island, the hidden fortifications they had constructed, and various equipment.
Explosions kept ringing out, drowning even the cries of the Vehicons.
The relentless bombardment continued for over half an hour until Hynix had exhausted all of their stored missiles. They then switched to naval artillery, and the bombardment gradually became less frequent.
The flames ignited by the explosions quickly spread, consuming nearly half of the island's vegetation. The dense black smoke shrouded the skies, causing panic among some humans living on nearby islands.
They didn't know exactly what had happened, but they knew that after this day, the island had lost many plants, and there were fewer dangers hidden in the forest.
