Starfighter

At around 2 o'clock in the morning, about ten kilometers away from the rebel ammunition base, an armored unit of the Federal Expeditionary Force was rapidly withdrawing eastward along the canyon.More than a dozen dilapidated Hellfire assault vehicles, five siege tanks riddled with bullets, six staggering raider mechs, and an armored command vehicle were the scouts who had just gone through a fierce battle to break through. Even the remaining troops.

On the armored command vehicle, the company staff officer Lu Huan leaned out half of his body, looking back at the rebel base in the distance, which was faintly blazing with flames.In the communication channel next to the ear, there was a creaking sound, probably because the rebel army had prepared in advance, and the obvious communication interference made it impossible for Lu Ming and others to effectively contact the company commander who was still fighting bloody battles in the rebel base gash.

"Staff Lu, the third platoon leader didn't rush out! It seems that a tank was trapped on the high ground during the final breakout, and the third platoon leader went back to rescue them!" The fourth platoon leader reported in a low voice through the communication headset.

"Understood!" Lu Ming's expression was blank, as if he couldn't see a trace of emotion, but through the huge holographic helmet, his blue eyes were already wet.

"Swoosh—boom!" Suddenly, two FC air-to-surface missiles flew over the convoy, hitting the two assault vehicles that were leading the way. Two balls of fire shot up, and the convoy fell into chaos. "Enemy attack, enemy attack!" In the communication channel, the panic calls of the members of the tank mechs sounded.

"Damn, don't panic!" Lu Min came to his senses, quickly pressed the communication headset and screamed: "The cars spread out along the two sides of the canyon! Damn, don't squeeze together, you want to die!"

"Counselor Lu, it's a rebel near-ground fighter!" The fourth platoon leader quickly made a judgment from the trail of the faint tail flame of the incoming missile, and roared hastily.

"I know, let your soldiers drive the assault vehicle to the blind spot at the bottom of the cliff!" Lu Ming looked up at the empty starry sky, his heart sank, and he cursed: "Damn it, it can't be that you met someone!" The invisible Banshee fighter? Damn, I should have brought a few anti-aircraft tanks, even a few individual anti-aircraft missiles!"

The Banshee fighter jet, a near-ground support fighter jet that the federal military industry department was once proud of.The shape of the fighter plane is similar to the armed helicopters used in the early ground warfare of mankind. It uses twin turbofan engines as power, can mount a large number of FC air-to-ground missiles, and is good at dealing with ground armored targets and infantry units.Once the fighter plane is put into actual combat, it is used to perform support tasks on the near-ground battlefield. It is one of the main fighter planes of the air assault division in the federal army.Because of its powerful air-to-ground firepower and its thick and sturdy armor that can withstand light weapons such as small-caliber laser artillery, it is loved by frontline commanders.What's more, the Banshee is equipped with a camouflage force field that can evade radar detection. This force field can even hide from electronic reconnaissance binoculars and even human eyes at a certain distance or under special weather conditions (such as dense fog or night). observe.

With better mobility than a siege tank, the Banshee can intimidate the enemy in a variety of vast and harsh battlefield environments.However, the Banshee also has inherent flaws that are difficult to overcome.Its camouflage force field cannot escape the scanning of reconnaissance satellites in high-altitude orbits, and even the powerful radar systems of battlecruisers in space can detect Banshees flying close to the ground.Moreover, because it needs to carry a large number of air-to-surface missiles and equipped with self-defense rapid-fire laser cannons, there is not much space on the Banshee fighter jet for air-to-air missiles and other air combat weapons.Each Banshee fighter has only two short-range xw120 air-to-air ballistics, and its air-to-air radar is almost a decoration, which can only detect air targets within a short distance.

Because of these two flaws, the biggest natural enemy of the Banshee is the Viking fighter, which is good at air combat.With the help of reconnaissance satellites in high-altitude orbit, the Viking fighters were able to successfully obtain the coordinates of the Banshee fighters, and they were able to use their am09 long-range air-to-air ballistics to easily shoot down patches of Banshee fighters.

As if to confirm Lu Ming's judgment, under the seemingly empty night, there was a series of low-pitched sounds of turbofan engines.Then I saw four or five missile tail flames flashing out of thin air in the night sky, and five FC air-to-ground missiles seemed to squeeze out from the gap in the night, and flew towards the armored convoy like headless flies.

"Boom!" Another two mechs and three assault vehicles instantly turned into balls of dazzling fireballs.Facing the banshee fighter planes, which are like natural enemies, the armored squadron without the cover of anti-aircraft tanks is like a group of little fat sheep that can only be slaughtered obediently.

"Well, aim all weapons at the three o'clock direction, shoot at an altitude of 500 meters, and blast those few flying bugs down for me!" Lu Ming's eyes were red with anxiety, and he punched the console of the command armored vehicle, ordering in a hateful voice.

"Bang bang bang!" The armored soldiers who received the order, no matter what happened, raised the muzzles of their guns, aimed at the direction Lu Ming said, and blasted violently.However, clusters of grenades, particle cannons, and laser cannons flew past without even hitting a fly. They went straight into the night sky and disappeared into the distance.

"Shua Shua!" In the opposite direction from where the armored soldiers were aiming, several air-to-ground missiles with long tail flames suddenly flashed out, and rushed straight at the convoy hiding under the cliff.This time, due to the dead angle of shooting, only two siege tanks were slightly injured, but the convoy was still very embarrassed.

"Connect to the channel of the division headquarters, and request the headquarters to coordinate with the friendly air assault division to come to support!" Faced with such a passive situation, Lu Huan completely ignored the confidentiality of the operation, and ordered decisively.

"Staff Lu, we are now deep in the enemy's army. Doing so will not only expose our army's position, but also allow the enemy to track down the communication channel of the division headquarters!" The sergeant in charge of communication in the armored command vehicle objected.

"Damn it, what nonsense, execute the order! Didn't you see that we were going to be swallowed up by these **** banshee fighters? I don't want to die like this for no reason!" Lu Minghong yelled and gritted his teeth.

"Yes!" The sergeant was startled, and quickly lowered his head to operate.

Just when Lu Ming and the others were hesitating and arguing, several FC air-to-ground missiles roared towards the remaining tanks and mechs on both sides of the canyon from another angle. "Boom!" Amidst the aimless air-to-air shooting of the tank mecha, two relatively large siege tanks were bombarded one after the other on the side of the vehicle, and fell headlong due to the loss of power suspension system with a bang. Come.

At this moment, the earth suddenly began to tremble faintly without any warning. Sand and gravel particles crazily surged and fell like rain from the crevices of the canyons and cliffs on both sides, and the magnitude of the tremors actually increased. It made the mecha stand a little unstable, and the drivers in the chariot were even more staggering.

"Damn! Earthquake at this time?" Inside the armored command vehicle, Lu Ming cursed angrily: "Could it be possible that if you don't get killed by the bomb, you will be buried in this canyon? Damn, really..."

"Look, Staff Officer Lu!" Just as Lu Ming was jumping and cursing, the fourth platoon leader suddenly heard a terrified cry from the communication channel next to his ear.

"Whatever you look at, isn't it an earthquake! Let..."

"No, Staff Lu, come out and take a look!" The fourth platoon leader called out even more anxiously.But at this time, the rebel banshee reconnaissance plane that was originally hidden under the night suddenly became quiet.

"Boom!" There was a huge roar that far exceeded any kind of artillery firing. Lu Ming, who had just leaned out of his upper body from the armored command vehicle, felt a huge dazzling fireball suddenly reflected on the display screen of the holographic helmet. , his eyes blurred, and then he felt an unusually fierce airflow rushing towards him, almost pulling him out of the armored vehicle directly, so startled that Lu Ming struggled to shrink back into the armored vehicle.

"Fourth platoon leader, what the hell happened!?" Lu Ming barely hid in the armored vehicle, and heard a violent crash outside the vehicle, as if countless stones were colliding rapidly Armored vehicles.

"Counselor Lu, I don't know, it seems that a nuclear explosion has occurred!" In the intermittent and crackling communication channel, there were four rows of intermittent calls.

"Counselor Lu, it's a nuclear explosion! I can already see the mushroom cloud, ah! Brothers, hold on to the chariot body, don't be blown away!" The surviving mechs in the third row anxiously and miserablely in the communication channel called.

Outside Lu Huan's armored command vehicle, in the direction of the rebel ammunition base in the distance, a huge mushroom cloud is slowly rising, and the dazzling huge fireball forms a small sun, turning the night of Solomi planet into day.A huge wave of smoke and dust billowing like sea waves billowed around the mushroom cloud, spreading rapidly with the shock wave.

In the narrow and long canyon where Lu Ming and others were hiding, a high-speed wave of smoke and dust filled the entire canyon also surged, swallowing the entire convoy in an instant.Amidst the smoke and dust, Lu Ming and others seemed to hear the faint sound of the turbofan engine stopping due to a malfunction, and then several explosions of the same magnitude sounded nearby.

About a few minutes later, Lu Ming, who was hiding in the armored command vehicle with a little fear, felt that the huge movement outside seemed to have stopped, and then slowly opened the hatch and peeked out.

At this time, the entire canyon was in a mess, with scattered rock fragments piled up everywhere, and the cliffs on both sides also faintly exposed several large black cracks.The remnants of the reconnaissance company's tanks and mechas were crowded together in a haphazard manner, and the outer shell of the car's mechas was full of potholes and marks that were smashed by rocks flying at high speed.About 300 meters away from the front of the convoy, there are several groups of burning steel wreckage. Judging from their remaining appearance, they seem to be the Banshee fighter planes that attacked the convoy.

"Are you all right?" Lu Ming climbed out of the armored vehicle tremblingly, pressed the call channel and asked.

"I'm fine!" "The 023 locomotive is fine!" The communication channel came from various vehicles and mechas one after another. Lu Ming was slightly relieved, and looked up at the huge mushroom cloud that hadn't disappeared in the distance.

"Could it be that there was a big explosion at the rebel base? Could it be that the company commander and the others successfully blew up the ammunition base of the rebels? Fuck, with such a powerful explosion, how many high-yield ammunitions are stored in the rebel base?" Lu Thinking of this, Min's heart suddenly moved, his sword eyebrows stood up angrily, and he cursed secretly in his heart: "Damn it, the teacher of Gou Ri is simply asking us to perform a death mission that is destined to never return!"
