**65章：「铁血的反击」 (Iron Blood's Counterattack)**

Lin Hao burst into the control room, his face set in a determined expression. Captain Zhang, sitting at the console, looked up at him with a mix of surprise and concern.

"Lin Hao, what's going on?" he asked, his voice firm but controlled.

"The mercenaries are closing in on us," Lin Hao replied, his eyes scanning the room frantically. "We have to get out of here, now."

Captain Zhang's face turned grim. "We can't leave the base defenseless," he said. "We need to hold them off until Zhao Iron Army arrives."

Lin Hao's jaw clenched in frustration. "But we're outnumbered and outgunned," he argued. "We'll be slaughtered."

Captain Zhang's eyes locked onto Lin Hao's. "We're not going to give up," he said, his voice unwavering. "We're going to fight to the last man."

Lin Hao felt a surge of anger and admiration for his captain. "Then let's get to it," he said, his voice low and deadly.

The two of them sprinted out of the control room, joining the other soldiers in the base's defense. Lin Hao grabbed a nearby rifle and began to lay down suppressive fire, trying to hold off the mercenaries.

As the battle raged on, Lin Hao's mind raced with strategies and tactics. He knew they couldn't hold out for long, but he was determined to give Zhao Iron Army time to arrive.

Just as he was starting to get into a rhythm, a loud explosion rocked the base. Lin Hao stumbled, his ears ringing from the blast.

"What's happening?" Captain Zhang yelled, his voice hoarse from the smoke.

Lin Hao's eyes scanned the chaos, his heart sinking. "It's the mercenaries," he shouted back. "They're trying to breach the walls!"

Captain Zhang's face set in a determined expression. "Then we'll have to stop them," he said.

Lin Hao nodded, his eyes flashing with determination. "Let's do this," he said, charging forward into the fray.

As the two of them fought to hold off the mercenaries, Lin Hao couldn't shake off the feeling that this was only the beginning. The battle was far from over, and the stakes were higher than ever.

Just as they were starting to gain the upper hand, a loud roar echoed through the base, making the ground tremble. Lin Hao's eyes widened as he saw a massive tank, emblazoned with the insignia of Zhao Iron Army, roll into the base.

But who was driving it? And what did they want?

Lin Hao's heart pounded in his chest as he watched the tank approach, its cannon trained on the mercenaries. The battle was about to take a dramatic turn, and Lin Hao was ready to find out what was coming next.
