Chapter 727 Chapter 17.05 The Burning Red Iron Star

In the multiverse, when the gods first entered the mortal world, they often fought firepower wars and technological wars.

Wei Keng also likes to fight this kind of rich war.After all, "Who doesn't love barbecue".

If there is absolutely a lot of time and development opportunities, Wei Keng will accumulate wealth, and then crush the opponent to death.

However, as a veteran traveler, Wei Keng knew that his own arrival was often accompanied by various accidents. When the conditions were not sufficient, he would always consider being forced to attack the strong with the weak.

Back then, when he entered the plane for the first time, he encountered the "Pandora" plane, and when he entered Pandora, he encountered "highly dangerous creatures", which laid the foundation for Wei Keng's hard work when he traveled in the future.

The most recent time travel was in the "Dark Plane", and Wei Keng traveled through such difficult planes.

Wei Keng didn't know that it would be even more difficult for him to face an absolutely powerful interstellar shock battle in the "Planet of Mind".

Wei Keng's crossing this time is "a decision of life and death, but also of competition".

An antelope that runs fast enough can also walk a lion thin and have to eat carrion hippo carcasses in the river. The sharp and useless minions make large carnivores have to fight for their stomachs in order to survive.

The gods of multiple planes felt that the war of gods had been pressurized enough that "most traversers" would collapse, but for Wei Keng, who was under strong pressure, the water temperature was just right.

On October 10, the White Wing Knights' wilderness tour officially started. After being walked for ten days, they have mastered absolute firepower, and they have been forced to fight their feet.

The terrain in the north of Sky Empire is divided by rivers with nine bends and eighteen bends,

In the shell armor of the Sky Knights, the concept of stainless steel shield has upgraded the defense to the "third class". The shells fired by the barrel are full of "high heat", "armor piercing" and "shock explosion". Can't fight a regular war.

Lance couldn't even do a good chase.Because the terrain in the countryside is too complicated.

There is a saying that goes like this: "Straight-line acceleration, who can't, the key is the curve."

The large land vehicles of the Anglos were pitted to death by the northern terrain of the Sky Empire;

Each river crossing, where is deep, where is shallow.When the tide is high and when it is not.These are the data collected by the YCAA staff.

The Anglo army often gets stuck in the terrain when they are halfway through the chase.And a little delay.

Seven or eight "150mm self-propelled howitzers" in the light armored units of the Nongqing Army were interspersed by river transport boats, and after they were deployed, a dense "blizzard" came.

Within 5 minutes, these "blizzard" shells fell in seven or eight waves (five shells per wave) one by one, giving the Anglo troops a wave.

The surface shield of the Land Cruiser was weakened by one layer, and the personnel who got off the vehicle were also seriously injured.

These 150mm artillery of Iron Star immediately took the car away and boarded the ship, and then slipped directly.

Feed the Anglo motorcyclists.

…Enma: We beat those we can move, and the enemy is thick, let him eat farts...

After ten full days of detour, the mileage of each tank exceeded [-] kilometers. Lance cursed that this was a "mud-legged" combat ethos, not a regular army at all.

So they began to ignore this kind of harassment and attack, and directly moved towards the established military goal of Fusteel Tower City, which was mechanized.

At the same time, 90.00% of the defense system of Fusteel Tower City has been completed.

A 40mm long-barreled cannon is being hoisted on the top of the [-]-meter-high concrete protection tower along the steel bracket.

For this tower, Wei Keng refers to the design of the Desan Berlin Air Defense Tower. It can be said that it has a scientific design for actual combat.
The cement module is pre-cast, and then transported by the arcane technique of "air transportation pad", and then steel bars are inserted in the reserved holes, and then concrete is poured in so that the process can be quickly constructed.

The lifting platform is reserved on the main structure to transport ammunition of various calibers.

The defense systems of Iron Star were almost completed on April 4, when the Anglos just left the city.

Of course, what is added now is the railway system, so that the heavily armored artillery defenders in the city can quickly dispatch support.

…Enma: It’s easy to come out, but you are not allowed to go back…

On October 10th, the Anglo Legion stopped chasing any harassers, and prepared to attack Wei Keng's rear troops straight up.

Near the port of Norwhale in the north, which is a city "rented" by the Angles, with the flickering of electromagnetic light, 42 descending points appeared.

Well, this is Enma's big move "group teleportation". At this time, the teleportation carries not only a 34-unit troop, but also a large amount of supplies.

The Angles wanted to attack, and the "lords" also tried to counterattack.

After the nine containers with a height of 20 meters were unfolded, the engineering team immediately began to dismantle these containers. At the same time, the mountain giant inserted the thermal steel pipe into the ground, and the softening of the foundation began. After injecting a little river water, the soil and rock foundation accumulated on the surface It began to sink steadily like quicksand, and after sinking to a certain extent, the quicksand ground began to harden, providing stability for the tower base and able to withstand the recoil of the artillery.

The tens of tons of cement castings needed for these turrets were quickly hoisted into the foundation pit by the Iron Star mechanical crane, and then poured with cement slurry, they began to be stacked like building blocks.

The excavated silt was not wasted, but was mixed with a viscous agent and accumulated on the outer shell of the building block as a sandbag-like external defense.

...When the Anglos were preparing for a wave of attack, the Iron Star Command quickly intercepted it...

Lance is counting firepower and troops and political deals, Enma is counting more, such as "time"

A strong army, equipment, numbers, are not decisive factors for victory.Among the weights of victory, organizational strength and subjective initiative are often the highest.

How to take the initiative to create tight time for the opponent, and how to use the tight time conditions of the opponent to expand favorable conditions.

Junior heroes such as An Jiexin and Bess, when dragging Lance on the battlefield, created the conditions for the layout of the defense system for the "Melting Steel Tower" city.

Now, after Lance went to kill Molten Steel Tower City at all costs, Iron Star seized the gap again and "built the tower" on the road behind.

Enma: What?Obscene, not upright?Oh, don't worry, there will be a formal war sooner or later, because our strategic goal is also to wipe out the opponent.

Total annihilation can only be achieved in regular warfare.

Our side, who has the initiative, must wait for an opportunity that is favorable to our side to initiate.You can start a war, but how to fight it is not up to you to decide.

...The intervening army and the intervened army are engaged in a contest of determination in the northern part of the Sky Empire...

On October 10th, finally, the Lance Corps arrived and the Anglo Corps launched a large-scale offensive in Fugang Tower City.

In the Land Cruiser Group of the Anglo Intervention Army, Lance uses advanced observation equipment.

Oh, this is a ten-meter-long telescope installed on the central cruiser. When the copper-shelled telescope is unfolded, it faces the high sky like a launcher, and first emits a stream of matter, which spreads out A temporary mirror.

And this mirror can just pass through the reflection effect, allowing the telescope to look down on the position from a high-altitude perspective!The effect of this device is similar to that of Wei Keng's skill "Gold Foil See-Through Drone". Of course, it also consumes industrial concepts.

And the price is quite expensive, more expensive than three "heavy infantry" tanks (three hundred tons), mainly because of the high precision.

Lance saw endless defensive positions, ground towers, and complex tunnels, guarding the industrial furnace area of ​​only 25 square kilometers in the center of Ronggang TC.

Lance hesitated for a moment. The siege weapons he brought were only four heavy mortars that could work.

The Angles have only mortars that can pull out the turrets of Ronggang City opposite.

On the side of the airship raised by Iron Star, it was observed that once the Anglo mortar entered the state of fire, the mechanical hoe was inserted into the ground. Within three hours, it could not be easily moved, and it was extremely easy to be attacked by surprise.

...Iron Star has the best light armor penetration tactics. …

Without waiting for Lance's further hesitation, Iron Star initiated the harassment first.As one after another, the rocket warheads of foul-smelling compounds were released, the entire battlefield was filled with the smell of farts.The lethality of this kind of stink bomb is not enough. In fact, in open areas, any "chemical warhead" has a low damage effect, but this is the psychological effect.

Smoked and stinky Anglo officers quickly lose their minds when they ride the mechanical maintenance spider.

This world is idealistic, and human consciousness itself has spiritual diffusion, that is, when a person thinks that he is covered in shit, the subconscious mind will equate the concept of a spittoon to the things he picks up.

...During the war, Wei Keng will constantly engage in mentality...

In the tunnel at the front of the Nongqing Army, wearing rubber protective clothing and a breathing mask, a 15-year-old young man looked at the Anglo mechanical spider lying in the distance, and sneered: "Spray black dog blood? Such a low method, I can't help it." Can it be used? No matter what, we need to chemically purify it, so that they can see how bad the artificial compound can be."

This 15-year-old young man is Wei Keng's new descendant.

Three years ago, this young man was drowned in the water by the Sky Empire grain requisition team, and Wei Keng's second batch of consciousness that arrived in this plane pierced him.

Because it is a "middle and lower capital", it is not in the focus of the gods, nor is it in the special care of the first Wei Keng 'Enma', so it is very hidden.

Wei Keng’s second batch of individuals who traveled to this plane are many, and the time and space are uncertain. For example, in this time and space, Wei Keng’s soul passed through this young man. When the god finds the corresponding time and space, this young man is not Wei Keng’s soul. Wearing an individual, Wei Keng's soul is wearing another ordinary person.

All in all, in this great era, Wei Keng's absolute main force in many worlds is not a leader like Enma, but an indomitable resister hidden among all living beings.

…Wei Keng: When the world wants to swallow me up, I will never stop dying. …

On October 10th, at 15:1 am, the night was calm, but the Anglo bombardment began.

Under Lance's order, the four steam chariots slowly parked behind the 50-meter-high bunker like a ship. These 30-meter-long, 260-ton gun carriages opened a ten-meter mechanical pick, Then, like a spider, it stepped firmly on the ground.

The gun barrel with a caliber of 15 mm and a height of [-] meters slowly lifted up, followed by a burst of crimson flashes, flickering along the flame pattern of the barrel, and then hot waves sprayed from the bottom of the gun. Thick and thin cannonballs flew into the sky with flames, drew an arc, and fell towards the turret of the defensive position seven kilometers away. The heavy artillery struck the concrete protective tower, blasting out bright flames.

At the same time, the artillery counterattack from Iron Star also hit.The heavy firepower of both sides wiped out the light of meteors in the night sky.

On the Anglo side, due to the electromagnetic force loaded on the top of Anglo's steam mortar by the "energy tank" every half hour to lift the metal plate shield, this makes the iron star shells that occasionally fall all deflected to the soil. Directly in front of the hill, a cloud of exploding dust formed.

The earth ball barriers built by the land tanks added to the arm of the excavator by the Angles before the war completed good protection for their artillery positions.

...the Anglos are obviously more competent than the Sky Empire as opponents...

Willie, who was in charge of the defense, looked at the artillery in front of him and said, "We can't just let the enemy safely project firepower on the periphery of our position."

At this time, there is a seven-kilometer open area between the defensive position and the opponent's long-range firepower. The direct-fire artillery of the defense tower can effectively penetrate within a five-kilometer range. The knight-level heavy armor is protected, but currently it cannot penetrate the enemy behind the mound. Siege cannon.

Cruise, the defense captain of Iron Star in the city, said: "It is necessary to allow the opponent's troops to fight us within the range of our defense towers. But it will be very passive to dispatch the heavy armored troops first."

Because there are fewer dispatches, it is easy for the opponent to send tanks to attack, but if there are more dispatches, the opponent can attack from the flank.

In front of this confrontational position, both sides can suddenly rush to the enemy's position to show their presence, but whoever rushes out of the central open space of the confrontation first will be more likely to be targeted by the opponent's artillery.

For example, here in the Peasant and Industrial Army, if two or three tanks are sent to attack the Anglo artillery positions.

Anglo will definitely send five heavy knight-level chariots, and then use "energy destruction" to slow down the speed and firepower of two or three tanks, annihilate them, and then withdraw before the city defenders prepare for rescue.

This is just like a martial arts master, making the first move means showing a neutral position.

But it is absolutely impossible to let the "heavy artillery" of the opponent destroy the defensive buildings. However, there are current methods, but it takes courage.

The Enma mirror image came up in the frontier talks.

Enma Mirror said: "We must take the initiative and order the infiltration troops to enter. As long as we can force the opponent's heavy units to reach the front, the fighters will be the first-class meritorious service."

...on the outskirts of the city, the Iron Stars are readying light mechanized infantry assaults...

Ever since, at three o'clock in the night, the tremor of the artillery fire on the ground was still erupting. On the forward position, a number of soldiers were armed and adjusted the power of the gas motorcycle.

This is the positional warfare unit formed here by Iron Star, the "Storm Hammer" commando.

Compared with ordinary soldiers, commandos are armed with alloy steel furnaces instead of submachine guns.This is a very effective enchanted weapon with special effects on attacks.In the team, everyone drank the potion of "Sharp Wind", and carried a "healing bottle", "automatic suture mud" (trunk bleeding for fusion), "replaceable prosthetic leg" (leg, hand broken replacement.)
On the eve of preparing to attack, the captain of the Fifth Battalion who led the charge looked at the soldiers and said, "Everyone, a few years ago, we encountered an opponent that the Empire did not win in the trenches. Are you afraid?"

The soldiers raised their heads, and a 15-year-old youth said: "Captain, what are you kidding, if you are afraid, you will grow eggs in vain."

The captain nodded, and began to shout to the slogan: "Well, for the blazing Iron Star!"

Soldiers: "Pierce through the gold powder of hypocrisy!"

...In the dark night, under one flare after another, the Anglos met different Sky Empire soldiers...

At 3:30 am, the attack began.

The massive howitzers of the Rongta Corps covered the front line. The "Storm Hammer" commandos, under the cover of the rows of artillery bombardment, quickly assaulted the mound position. When the Anglo defenders discovered that the "Storm Hammer" had successfully assaulted the enemy artillery The position was 500 meters, and the steam propulsion charge was launched.

When Iron Star's demolition infantry charged, Iron Star's artillery fire automatically suppressed the cover, clearing the way for the assault troops.

Ten minutes later, the blazing flames shot out a mushroom cloud of ammunition explosion on Anglo's No. 10 soil ball artillery position, as well as a huge collapsed steel pipe, reminding the Anglo that it was impossible for them to bombard safely. .The mud legs they despised had the courage to fight back against the artillery fire.

Immediately after 5 minutes, the No. [-] and No. [-] mounds also rose from the explosion fire cloud.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Angles sent heavy infantry chariots to protect the No. [-] mound, and finally protected the last long-range firepower.

In this assault battle, one tenth of the "Storm Hammer" commando team could not evacuate. Among the fallen unknown heroes, two individuals from the second wave of Wei Keng fell, and the one who was only 15 years old A young individual who participated in the Iron Star Farmer Army and was chatting and laughing when his side fired the "skunk rocket" the day before.
