I weave fate in parallel time and space

Chapter 373 The battle that kicked off

As they dispersed, the heavy rain gradually stopped.

Four mechas moved with them, their engines roaring. They did not rush into the city, but waited for the engines to gradually heat up.

The middle-aged man was driving his mecha, waving his giant hand to signal for them to follow, and then walked out the door by himself.

Dane stepped on the pedal, and the mecha took a step forward.

Basically, the operating systems of all mechs are designed based on the information given by Tesla.

So no matter what kind of mech it is, the operation template is the same.

So even though Dane had never controlled the mecha, he knew how it acted.

Nauda gripped the armrests of the command chair, feeling sick to his stomach every time he sat on this bumpy machine.

"You said that the control room of the mech can't be made more comfortable? Before the fight started, it made people faint."

"This is war, mother." Dane said helplessly, "This is not a spring outing."

"No, this is indeed a design flaw," Tesla said.

“One of the most important standards for mechas is the protection of the pilot.

A good shock absorption system can better protect the driver from the enemy's attack, and can also make some more difficult actions. "

Dane pouted, but did not refute, he knew that he would not be able to refute his father.

"The cockpit of Professor Stark's mech is much more comfortable," Nauda said, "it's like being in the arms of a mother."

"Even if I spend a lifetime of energy on the teacher's mecha, I may not be able to catch up with it." Tesla murmured in a low voice.

Hearing this, Dane raised his head and looked at him in astonishment.

"You still have a teacher?"

"Of course I have teachers." Tesla said matter-of-factly, "There is no one in this world who is born with knowledge."

"Can he also build mechas?" Dane said.

"Mech technology is what he taught me." Tesla said.

"But..." Dane couldn't help but said, "Everyone says you are the father of mechas."

"It is estimated that in the eyes of the teacher, these things I built cannot be regarded as mechas at all." Tesla murmured softly.

"Where is he now?" he asked.

Tesla slowly raised his head to look at the starless night sky, his eyes flickering.

"Perhaps, he is watching us from some corner above at this moment."

Are you in heaven...

Dane understood what Tesla meant and did not continue to ask.

His father is not young, and it is normal for his teacher to pass away.

Nawuda took out a map at this moment. Her task was to observe the hands, and she was also responsible for navigation.

She is very good at ranging, so these are not difficult for her.

There are four routes leading to Port Sensation marked on the map, and the road they are going to take is marked in red.

The four mechas walked ahead of them, splitting up to avoid unnecessary suspicion.

But they have to reach their destination at the same time.

The map also marked the positions of dozens of other mechs, and they should have entered the combat position an hour ago.

Nauda didn't know if these people had any spies, maybe someone had exchanged their plan for gold bars with the tsar.

However, she can be sure that no one knows about the plan to attack the warship, because she didn't know what they were going to do until just now.

They quickly walked through the empty streets of St. Petersburg, their mechas were sprayed with the logo of the Tsarist Russian patrol army.

At night, the patrol army often patrols with mechas, so the residents in the surrounding area are not surprised.

The buildings in the suburbs gradually thinned out. When they passed by a dark hotel, they saw someone looking curiously at the window.

It won't be long before someone will wonder why the mechs came to the suburbs.

But they were so close to the goal that they could no longer think about these things.

The horizon gradually rises, and as the cliff approaches, the rocks gradually increase.

The night view of the city appears in the rear observation window of the mecha, which is very gorgeous under the dark night sky.

Hundreds of masts and chimneys rose from the dark water, and their Zeus ships were hidden under these civilian ships.

When they were still a few hundred meters away from the warship, a searchlight suddenly swept through the darkness.

Nauda narrowed his eyes slightly, and they saw the metal torso and the silhouette of the muzzle.

It's a Tsarist Russian mech.

"Distance?" Tesla asked calmly.

"About a thousand yards. Well, 900 meters," Naouda said.

Tesla nodded and pulled the lever.They heard a click, and some huge metal creation slid into place somewhere.

This metal object is very heavy, even they in the cockpit can feel the weight.

"You do choose mechs," Tesla said,
"The German-made 88mm cannon is dual-wielding. It was originally built for anti-aircraft purposes, but later it was found that it is particularly useful for attacking heavy armored units.

The reason why this mecha was not mass-produced should also be because of this gun. "

Dane also increased the running of the engine so that the mecha could respond quickly.

The person on the mecha opposite was shouting at them with a loudspeaker.There was more curiosity than anger in the tone.

They obviously didn't expect the enemy to enter St. Petersburg, and they also had their marks sprayed on them.

"Loaded, ready to fire!" Tesla said.

"Wait a minute." Nauda looked at the range meter on the mech. This mech hadn't experienced much actual combat, so the range indicated above was the product of calculation and estimation.

No one could tell the true range until the first shell hit the ground.

The needle finally pointed to 900 meters...

"Fire!" Nauda shouted.

"Hold on, the recoil may be huge!"

With that said, Tesla pulled the trigger, and a cannonball blasted out from the iron golem's palm.

"boom!"

The leg structure of the Iron Golem is prepared for these two cannons, so there are many supports at the rear.

With a loud noise, dust flew under the iron golem, and waves of ripples spread to the surroundings. The huge recoil made the entire mech tremble.

Nauda, ​​Tesla and the others felt their stomachs were overwhelmed, but they quickly got used to it.

The shell landed about 40 meters away from the mecha, and the stone on one side was blasted into pieces.

"The gap is not that big." Nawuda said, "I will definitely hit it next time."

Tesla continued to raise the loading lever.

"Watch out for evasive maneuvers, they might hit back right away."

"I'm pretty good at evasive maneuvers," Dane said.

"This shot is enough to destroy this mecha." Tesla whispered softly.

But the next moment, the main gun of the opposite mecha also made a loud noise, and a cannonball flew over their heads.The explosion sounded a few seconds later, causing the Iron Golem's soles to tremble.

"They missed!" Dane yelled, "but this time they'll have to calibrate. Can we fire?"

"Wait!" Nauda observed the rising pointer.The pointer scale exceeds 900 meters, but there is still a margin of 40 meters.

"Fire!" she finally yelled.

Smoke erupted from the palm of the giant arm again, and the entire cabin leaned back, with dust flying.When the cannonball was fired, he controlled the mecha and strode forward.

Through the violently shaking observation window, Nauda saw a mecha was directly pierced by the shell, and then lost its balance and fell to the ground.

"Hit!" Naouda yelled.

However, the driver of the other mecha still pulled the trigger—the main turret fired again, and the dust around the mecha was swirled by the shells.With a loud noise, the shells almost flew past their heads.

The mecha swayed back and forth amidst the explosion—the shell probably landed where they were standing before.

If Dane hadn't let the mecha move forward at full speed, they would have lost their fighting ability now.

Dane controlled the mecha to move forward at full speed, and the machine gun on the opposite mecha also fired, bursts of dust rose on the road ahead, and then there was the sound of bullets hitting metal, which was very ear-piercing.

"What?" Dane yelled.

Tesla looked for the panel, suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something, raised his hand and pressed a button violently.

Following his movements, the iron golem's joints spewed out turbulent steam, and the steam directly enveloped the entire mecha, even covering its surroundings, blocking the sight of those mechas.

Those mechs still didn't stop firing, but poured bullets into the dense fog formed by the steam.But obviously, it is difficult to hit the target after being obscured by thick fog.

After a round of firing, they stopped, to save bullets.

But suddenly, with a heavy sound, the iron golem rushed out of the thick fog, and before they could react, the iron golem rushed directly in front of them.

The exhaust hole at the end of the iron golem spewed out a thick black mist, showing that the engine of the mecha was running at a high speed with overload.

The upper body of these mechs on the opposite side is very similar to a tank, but the lower body has spider-like feet, and their balance is far inferior to that of a tracked tank.

When the iron golem rushed in front of them, it directly opened its pair of big hands that looked like they were wearing boxing gloves, and slammed into the two mechas fiercely.

The mechs lost their balance for a moment and fell to the ground. They obviously wanted to struggle, but the iron golem obviously wouldn't give them time to react.

While they fell to the ground, steam spewed from the joints of the pair of giant hands, slowly lifted them back, and then blasted out violently.

"boom!"

Accompanied by the sound of heavy metal tearing, several mechanical clans below the mecha were deformed by the impact and directly lost their ability to move.

Tesla, Dane and others in the cab were slightly relieved, and then Tesla complained.

"In recent years, those scientists are really superstitious about multi-legged mechs."

"That's not because of you," Dane said.

“I originally designed the agricultural machinery to have multiple legs because it facilitates farming in various terrains and increases the area of ​​land that can be cultivated.

The reason why the Hercules frigate is designed with multiple legs is because of its long body and stable center of gravity.And there are enough technical advantages to make up for the disadvantages of multiple feet, so as to gain more terrain combat advantages and flexibility.

But they actually designed this kind of mecha to have multiple legs, making it top-heavy. It was really stupid. "

"Beichen also has this type of mecha."

"If you have been to Beichen, you will know that their terrain is much more complicated. But most of this country is plain, isn't the track easier to use than more feet?"

Dane nodded, then continued to ask, "Where are the others?"

Nauda leaned out of the observation window and quickly noticed three smoke trails under the starry sky.

"It's all there! About two kilometers away."

But then, she saw the armored ship from Germany on the dark sea. It was a strategic cruiser weighing 2.4 tons, with a length of about 186.5 meters.

At the beginning of the war, this ship was presented to Nicholas II by William II as a gift of alliance. It was loaded with gyroplanes and many combat weapons, and the range was enough to cover St. Petersburg.

At the same time, she also saw a red dot shining in the night sky—it was an aircraft. Through the telescope, she could barely see that it was an airship.

That is also the German Zeppelin airship. Compared with fighter jets, the advantage of airships is that they float longer and are higher than fighter jets.

Fighters in this era are equipped with machine guns at most, not cannons.The frame of the airship ensures that it can maintain structural stability even if multiple air bags are penetrated by bullets.

Moreover, the performance of underground anti-aircraft artillery in this era is average, and it is very difficult to shoot down airships.The number of bombs it carries is also much higher than that of ordinary fighters. As long as it is placed there, it is a ruthless bomb-dropping machine.It is the main weapon of this era.

So even if the warship is destroyed, if the airship still survives, it will be difficult for these mechs to achieve real success.

The battle has just begun. (end of this chapter)
