Starfighter

Chapter 041 Battleship Reinforcement

The sudden retreat order made all the expeditionary soldiers who were fighting fiercely with the rebels a little at a loss.Although the vanguard's offensive was unfavorable, and they were caught in the pincer attack of the rebels between the two mountain ridges, the follow-up offensive groups were continuously coming to support.Relying on their local superiority in strength, the ground attack force is fighting to turn the tide of the battle step by step despite heavy casualties.

Even so, in line with the bounden duty of obeying orders, each armored unit adjusted its firepower in accordance with the commander's order, and retreated in an orderly manner while covering each other.In order to cover the retreat of the main force, some chariots with destroyed traveling devices and mechas with broken legs and arms stayed in place to attract the firepower of the rebels until they were smashed into a pile of scrap iron.After all, to retreat safely from such intense close-quarters melee, someone has to sacrifice.

The retreat made the blood dripping from the hearts of the soldiers of the expeditionary army who fought bloody battles. They would rather fall face to face on the way of charging than to be chrysanthemums by the rebels during the somewhat chaotic retreat.In order to cover their comrades, there were always tanks and mechas that disobeyed orders and turned their muzzles on the spot, buying every second of precious time for others to retreat.

Finally, after a battle that was more tragic than the attack, the leading troops with heavy casualties hurriedly withdrew from the mountain and broke away from the close entanglement with the rebels.A round of artillery fire that appeared in time blocked the pursuit route of the rebels rushing out of the mountain, causing those rebels to retreat back angrily, and turned to deal with the small groups of remaining expeditionary forces who voluntarily stayed in place to attract firepower.

"Damn it, what kind of battle is this called!" Hearing the sound of intense artillery fire still coming from the distant mountains, Hao Yi, with red eyes, punched the track of the siege tank beside him, gnashing his teeth. He cursed bitterly.When retreating, an armor-piercing spiked bullet flew past his helmet, and the shattered helmet fragments scratched his forehead, and blood was gurgling.The original excitement when he just entered the battle has long been replaced by full of resentment.

"Brother Hao, stop scolding! It's good that we escaped back!" Hu Erpang sat on the ground leaning on the chariot, panting heavily.There was a big hole in the armor of his left arm, and a piece of bright red blood was slowly oozing out.

"Er Fatty, are you injured?" Hao Yi turned around when he heard the sound, and asked in surprise.After more than ten battles, Haoyi's maintenance team was reduced from more than 100 people who had just entered the battlefield to less than forty.In that "hijacking operation", Zhao Jiakun was sent back to the base to recuperate because of serious injuries.Team leader Xu Feng also unfortunately died in a battle, and now only Haoyi and Hu Erpang are left in Haoyi's team.Now the military ranks of both of them have been exceptionally promoted to corporal, but Haoyi and Haoyi have no joy in their hearts.

"It's okay! I was scratched by the shrapnel from Gou Ri!" Hu Erpang forced a smile and shook his head.

Haoyi frowned, and was about to lean over to check Hu Erpang's injuries, when the commander's order suddenly came from the headset, "All units quickly prepare for the second round of attack!"

This thoughtless order fooled Haoyi and the others again.Just when the soldiers of the expeditionary force were about to yell at the bastard commander, patches of "dark clouds" suddenly appeared in the space above their heads.

At first, the soldiers thought that the sky was about to change, but when they heard that something was wrong with the rumbling "thunder", they all looked up. "Look quickly! Battlecruisers!" Some sharp-eyed soldiers quickly recognized that the small, square and edged "dark clouds" were actually the figures of large space battlecruisers.As soon as the words landed, there was a commotion in the crowd.

"I x, it's a battlecruiser!"

"Damn, what are these big guys doing here?" The soldiers chattered and chattered.Due to the distance, it was impossible to tell with the naked eye whether these cruisers belonged to the Seventh Space Fleet or the rebels, and the soldiers of the expeditionary force inevitably felt uneasy.

After the start of the Battle of Solomi Planet, the space battleships of the two sides were busy competing for air supremacy in outer space, and they had no time to support their respective ground forces.And now those space cruisers are able to enter the atmosphere smoothly, which means that the battle in outer space has already seen its conclusion, and the party with air supremacy will be able to send a fleet to enter the low altitude to assist its own ground troops in combat.

Space battlecruisers with a thick hull several kilometers long, powerful main guns, countless laser secondary guns, and a large number of ghost escort fighters, once entering the atmosphere, are extremely terrifying giants to the ground troops. Sky Fortress.If the battlecruisers above the head belonged to the rebel side, then the ground troops of the expeditionary force reassembled on the Gobi wilderness in front of the mountain would undoubtedly be bombarded destructively.

Those giants in the sky, due to their rapid descent, were surrounded by billowing dark clouds, which made them even more "stern-faced", slowly covering the heads of the soldiers of the expeditionary army like a large cloud of calamity.The faint roar of nuclear-powered engines in the air shook the internal organs of every expeditionary soldier, and the shadow of panic and fear quickly filled everyone's heart.Many soldiers were so frightened that their legs trembled slightly, and more people opened their mouths wide, looking at the "dark clouds" above their heads in surprise, and stopped their movements in unison.

"Everyone, don't panic! Those battlecruisers are the Seventh Space Fleet of our army, and they will assist us in attacking the rebel positions!" An explanation from the field commander came out of the headset at the right time, which made the soldiers' tense heartstrings loosen suddenly. Come.

"The Seventh Space Fleet is mighty!" Whoever took the lead shouted excitedly, and the entire front line exploded, and soldiers cheered excitedly and somewhat chaotically.

"Damn, let me just say, it must be our own battlecruiser, look at that mighty appearance! Tsk tsk! How cool it would be to be a space soldier in the space force!" A marine said carelessly.

"Liu Laoliu, why the hell didn't you fart just now! I seem to have seen your legs trembling, could it be because you were frightened?" Another soldier scolded with a rude smile.

"Damn it is..." The marine was about to quibble, but the commander's order sounded next to his ear: "All units speed up and prepare, and launch the attack again in half an hour!"

"Brother Hao, that's a space battleship!" Hu Erpang, whose face was a little pale from being frightened just now, looked up at those giants and exclaimed: "It's so fucking big! It's several times bigger than those space transport ships Times!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, how exciting it would be to get one to drive!" Hao Yi, who was on the side, dreamed with his eyes shining and drooling.

"Uh, Brother Hao, I heard that that big guy can't be driven by himself!" Hu Erpang reminded without knowing it.

"Uh... pack up your equipment and get ready to work!" Hao Yi, who was in the midst of sexting, gave Hu Erpang an angry look, "You foodie, you always like to disturb my pride!"

Just as they were talking, the battlecruisers wrapped in billowing thick clouds had already descended to several thousand meters above the sky, and each of them dispersed to the designated combat area in units of two or three battleships.There are also two battleships hovering on the battle line to which Hao Yi belongs.The dense clouds around the battlecruiser hovering in the sky slowly dispersed, revealing the true colors of these big guys.

There are many laser secondary cannons on the gleaming hull armor, all kinds of light frequently flash around the hull, the classic mallet-shaped bow looks mighty and domineering, and the inverted T-shaped hull is carried on both sides. The launcher for orbital nuclear bombing, and the four huge nuclear power engine nozzles distributed at the stern of the ship are even more spectacular.However, because the battleship is in a suspended state at this time, there is no blue tail flame in the engine nozzle.

As soon as the battleship came to a complete stop, the ejection ports of the fighter jets in the middle of the hull opened one after another, and ghost escort fighter jets buzzed out of the battleship.Compared with the huge mothership, the small ghost fighter is like a swarm of flies, buzzing around an adult.However, despite this, the ghost fighters with a number of hundreds of them also pose a great threat to the giant battleships.

The Phantom fighter is mainly designed to assist space battleships in fighting for air supremacy in outer space.Its main equipment is a 105mm caliber laser main gun, which can penetrate the next-generation steel armor of battlecruisers, and can also carry varying numbers of space torpedoes or air-to-air missiles.A space torpedo is actually a low-speed, heavy-duty and powerful missile aimed specifically at battleships, while an air-to-air missile is a high-speed light missile used to deal with fighter jets.

Although the Phantom fighter is small and exquisite, its equipped laser main gun and space torpedo also pose a considerable threat to battleships. Once the number reaches a certain scale, a single battlecruiser has to be afraid of three points.When assisting near-ground troops to fight, the Wraith fighter can also use the main laser cannon to carry out air strikes on ground armored targets.What's more, within a certain range from the mothership, the Wraith Fighter can also use the mothership's anti-gravity force field to stimulate the airborne invisible force field, so as to achieve the purpose of invisibility.Its invisibility effect is comparable to that of the Banshee, but once it leaves the range of the mothership's force field, the Phantom will automatically lose its invisibility function.

After a while, the ground troops had reorganized their offensive formation, and the space battleships above their heads also began to move slowly. The nuclear-powered engines emitted streaks of azure blue light, humming and moving over the rebel positions.

"Whew!" When the huge figure of the space battleship slowly covered the mountain that had just experienced a tragic offensive and defensive battle, dazzling yellow laser beams roared towards the mountain.

"Boom!" Countless smoke and dust rose suddenly with the flames, and the earth trembled.In order to avoid accidentally injuring the friendly forces on the front line, the battleship did not use the powerful nuclear energy main gun-Yamato cannon.However, the power of the hundreds of laser secondary gun salvos it is equipped with far exceeds the heavy artillery clusters of the ground troops.

Billows of smoke and dust poured over the sky and covered the slope of the highland, and the soldiers of the expeditionary force who had assembled in the distance were shocked.

"All units, prepare to launch an attack!" Before the salvo of secondary guns on the battleship stopped, Haoyi's headset heard the command of the field commander.
