"But that's not a problem for us, at least not yet. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Zhou Yi said, "So I suggest that when the two armored battalions come back, we should fight back once, at least to buy our soldiers some time to rest." There are no problems with the supply of ammunition, but our soldiers are still flesh and blood, they will be tired and will be low on energy. ”
"You're right." Lin Hai nodded, "Clones are not machines either, they do need a break. Even machines need to be cooled and trimmed after intense work. So be it, and when the two battalions return, let them strike again, at least clean up the garbage in front of the position. Then the other units can begin to carry out rotation operations. Until then, it shouldn't be a problem for all the troops to continue to hold out, right? Anyway, it's only been less than an hour now, so the soldiers shouldn't be so tired soon, right? ”
"Yes, sir, that's fine."
"Then next......" Lin Hai looked at the officers, "what is the gain of the drone?" ”
"Not yet." Zhou Yi replied, "The reconnaissance range of the four drones has extended to thirty kilometers, but there is still nothing, and the only news is that none of the four drones have been lost, and they have not encountered the aircraft of the Sijing people." It seems that the Sijing people are only concentrating their aircraft in the New York area for air supremacy missions, so it is very likely that the planetary assault mothership will only hold on to New York and will not be sent out to fight. ”
"In that case, they wouldn't use planetary strike carriers?" Lin Hai pointed to the position in the distance and said, "I'd rather believe that they are just waiting for a good time for the planetary assault mothership to attack. We haven't revealed any fatigue here for the time being, so the Sijing people may think that if we dispatch the mothership at this time, we will shoot down another one, and they may wait for us to run out of ammunition and the soldiers will be tired before dispatching the mothership. Compared to those ground combat units, planetary assault motherships are definitely much more expensive. Instead, I will also wear down the defenders with cheap cannon fodder before sending elite troops for the final blow. ”
"But we really haven't found any trace of the planetary assault mothership. If the Sijing people still want to use the planetary assault mothership to attack us, the drone has already detected a range of thirty kilometers, a distance of thirty kilometers, even if it is a planetary assault carrier, it is impossible to appear on our heads to attack in an instant. ”
"I'm not just worried about the mothership, it's about the 800 fighters on board." Lin Hai glanced at Zhou Yi, and then said, "With our current air defense force here, against them, the victory rate is very low. If it weren't for the fact that I'm used to having some hole cards on hand from time to time, I should have told the Ulysses to come back now, and we would have evacuated North America at once. It's just that even if I have hole cards, I can't just pull out a card that can deal with the planetary assault mothership, so I need time. ”
"How long will it take?"
Lin Hai looked at the time and replied, "At least another hour of waiting." At that time, no matter what intrigues the Sijing people had, we didn't need to worry anymore. In the face of absolute power, all conspiracies and tricks are just a layer of paper, which can be broken at the first stab. ”
"So, sir, what are your hole cards, can't you tell us first?"
"What's the surprise?" Lin Hai smiled and said, "Since it's a surprise, naturally you can't tell others in advance." Okay, don't talk this nonsense, you better keep your eyes open, and then command the troops so that nothing goes wrong, lest my hole cards be broken here before they arrive. ”
"Sir, the heavy tank battalion and mechs are about to arrive!" At this time, a communication soldier got up and reported, "But when they returned, they were desperately blocked by the Sijing people, and their advance speed was quite slow!" ”
"Don't wait any longer." Lin Hai said to Vatutin, "Don't worry about the rebels' artillery yet, transfer your artillery to clear the way for the two armored battalions." ”
"What if the rebels retaliate? We have this little artillery right now, and they have knocked it out, but there is nowhere to add it. ”
"It's okay, I'm prepared." With that, Lin Hai walked in the direction of the artillery positions, and then laid a circle of "rails" around the self-propelled artillery positions that had been erected.
"What is this? Rail? Several officers, except for Vatutin, who were all cultivated in this world, asked in surprise, they didn't know what Lin Hai had laid.
"This can't be a Firestorm defense system, can it?" Vatujing was a little dazed at first, then immediately reacted, and hurriedly asked, "I've only seen this thing once before, and I saw it in a super-large front-line base, and this system has been gradually withdrawn from the list of facilities of each base at that time. But this thing needs a lot of energy to last a short working time, where do we have enough energy supply now? ”
Lin Hai spread his hands and said with a smile: "Although I can't afford to carry a complete power station with me now, and those small field vehicle generators are not enough to power the Firestorm system, I have an Annihilator MKII walking mecha." That's the full version of the model, not a castrated version that was later made to save costs. ”
"Type II mech?!" Hearing the name, Vatujing immediately understood, "You mean that you can use the cold fusion reactor that comes with the mecha to power the Firestorm system?" ”
"Why not?" Lin Hai asked rhetorically, "I have asked the technical department before, and the reactor power of MKII is comparable to the output power of three base power stations, not to mention one set of fire storm systems, and two more sets are no problem." The power is not large, and how can it drive the MKII type of two combined 520mm super-heavy electromagnetic railguns. It's its 800-ton dead weight, and if the energy output power is not enough, the MKII can't even walk. Besides, it's not the first time I've used Firestorm, so don't worry so much about it, and go and prepare for your own work. ”
"Okay." Watching Lin Hai toss out all kinds of wires and cables, and then command the sappers to sort out these lines, Vatujing can only deal with the work he can handle at this time, that is, to prepare for the cannon.
"Lieutenant Colonel Vatukin, what is the Firestorm system?" Zhou Yi, Sun Hao and others, who had been listening for a long time, hurriedly surrounded them, they couldn't ask Lin Hai, who was busy, so they could only ask Vatujing, who obviously knew what it was.
"That's a high-temperature plasma ejector." Vatutin pointed to the row of rails that looked like a railroad and said, "By spraying plasma upwards to form a 'wall' made of plasma, to intercept all physical bomb attacks, whether it is artillery shells or missiles, when they touch that wall, they will be vaporized in an instant, and there is no distinction between friend and foe." ”
"No friend or foe? Then when we shell, won't the shells not be able to fly? ”
"I didn't say it was going to be turned on soon. The Fire Storm defense system is very energy-consuming, and it can't be turned on for a long time, not to mention, it needs to be fully charged before it can be used, even if it is turned on, it can only maintain a ten-minute running time, and when the ten minutes are up, the energy that was previously filled will be consumed, and then it will take half an hour to recharge before it can be used again. Therefore, when using it, it needs to be carried out at the right time, and it cannot be opened casually. Now I am ready, and I will only start to defend when my artillery fires and is countered by enemy fire. ”
"It's only ten minutes of running time......," Sun Hao said with a frown, "Time is too short, not enough time for others to fire rapidly with a burst of artillery fire." ”
"Actually, that's enough." "We don't expect it to defend against the entire battle, as long as it can hold out until all the artillery is transferred." After that, it doesn't matter, saving our self-propelled guns is the main purpose. We can even counter again, after the rebels open fire, it is equivalent to exposing the location of the artillery, and we can survive under the protection of the Firestorm system, but they are not necessarily. ”
"Understood, we're going to arrange the future troop transfer." Zhou Yi said, "If the rebels carry out artillery countermeasures, the defensive line and other places in the port area may also be affected by the shelling, and I will also arrange for the deployment to be adjusted." ”
When the officers dispersed, Lin Hai's cables were ready, and a huge walking machine with a height of eighteen meters, a width of eighteen meters, and a length of thirty meters appeared behind the guide rail so abruptly. However, there were Iron Eagle's own people all around, and no one was surprised by this phenomenon, and the soldiers of the M Army who had been taken in by them were all arranged around the defensive line, and no outsider could see what was happening here.
"I'm ready here." After the sappers connected those cables to the power system of the giant quadruped walking mecha and connected it to the small control center system of the Fire Storm, Lin Hai used the communicator to inform Vatujing, "The energy is sufficient, it can be used at any time, and there is no need to recharge it." It's up to you. ”
Three minutes later, the artillery fired in unison, and eighteen self-propelled guns spewed out long tongues of fire, and 155 mm grenades whistled out, revealing clusters of light under the night sky and flying into the distance!
A few seconds later, in the pitch-black city in the distance, large fireballs continued to explode, and pieces of brick and wood buildings were engulfed in the firelight, turning into pieces and flying in all directions! The sound of the explosion is audible even in Minato! Tens of meters of flames even lit up most of the sky!
The shelling quickly swept away the buildings that stood in front of the two armored battalions and the port area, and the Sijing people and human rebel troops who were hiding in that area and kept blocking the return of the armored battalion were reduced to ashes! The passage was opened in an instant!
The two armored battalions seized this opportunity, immediately advanced at full speed, and rushed back to their positions in the port area as much as possible!
And at this time, a large amount of fire also appeared in a corner of the outer part of the New Haven city, and a large number of light clusters flew in the direction of the port area - the rebels really began to counter with artillery!
On the Iron Eagle side, with the artillery radar's calculation of the flight trajectory of those rebel shells, the Firestorm system, which has been taken over by the computer, is also ready to start at any time!
It wasn't until two seconds before those shells were about to fly to the Iron Eagle artillery position that the fire storm system was activated instantly, and blue pillars of fire suddenly erupted into the sky on the metal rails! The pillars of fire joined together to form a wall of flames! As soon as dozens of onslaught shells hit the wall of fire, they exploded in the air!
Instantly blast a barrage of bright fireballs in the air!
It's just that the flames from the explosion of the cannonball penetrated this layer of fire wall that could resist the cannonball, and rushed towards the back of the fire wall! But at this time, Lin Hai and the others had already left their original positions and avoided the impact. And the explosive flames that penetrated through the wall of fire were also greatly reduced in power because of the wall of fire, and they could not pose any threat to Lin Hai, who was a certain distance away.
"The coordinates of their artillery degree have been found." In the communication system, Vatutin kept reporting the situation to Lin Hai, "I need the firestorm to pause and attack before they move away." ”
Lin Hai didn't answer, but just nodded to the sappers on the side.
Confirming that no shells continued to fly, the fire storm system was temporary, the pillar of fire disappeared, and the artillery of the Iron Eagle fired another round of rapid fire, and dozens of shells flew towards their destination at high speed! These shells, which are designed to hit enemy artillery, all use rocket-accelerated range extender shells, which are several times faster than conventional shells, and can usually hit the target before the enemy artillery is transferred!
Five seconds passed, and more fires appeared at the location where the rebel shelling fire had appeared before, and a larger fireball also rose! Then, the sound of continuous explosions was faintly heard!
"Looks like it hit their ammunition depot." "They shouldn't have been able to dodge our shelling." However, I still need to make the transfer just to be on the safe side. ”
"The Firestorm system has been turned on again." Lin Hai replied, "I will cover your safe transfer of positions." But time is running out, so you'd better hurry. ”
"It's already being done." With Vatutin's reply, the self-propelled guns began to retract their stabilizing brackets, lower their barrels, and roar their engines again.
"Yo, you actually brought the Firestorm system here?!" Looking at Lin Hai, who was moving the artillery, Sun Dahai's voice came from behind him, and they had already rushed back to the area controlled by their own side in the port area in that very short time. Obviously, as soon as he came back, Sun Dahai jumped directly out of the tank to find Lin Hai.
"It's always good to have a little more hole cards." Lin Hai turned around and smiled, "How are you doing?" Although I received a report before, the communication was not very detailed. (To be continued.) )
