Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 1164 The first wave of offensive!
"Warning! Warning! A large number of high-energy targets have been detected! According to the scanning results of various radar systems, there are at least 5000 targets in front of our fleet! The number is increasing!"

"Report! A large number of unidentified targets have appeared among the targets! After comparing the data, it is suspected to be a new type of machine formed by combining multiple scout-class machines!"

The CIC quickly placed the optical image of the new target on the main screen.

Kati Manikin took a closer look and found that this so-called new target looked very much like a jellyfish.

From the outline, the limbs of this jellyfish appear to be composed of four Scout-class tanks.

(Model diagram!! This is not the machine in the original work!)
"A high-speed machine composed of multiple machines?"

There was a hint of solemnity in Kati Manikin's eyes.

As a commander with rich combat experience, Kati Manikin almost instantly realized the performance of this jellyfish-like combined machine.

"Send the image of the new machine to the entire army, and send my speculation along with it."

"Yes!"

The CIC responded and waited for Kati Manikin's next words.

"This machine is most likely a combination of multiple scout-class machines, and it may be able to separate its machines in battle and use some unknown means to kill the target! All units must be vigilant! Send!"

"Yes!"

After asking CIC to sound the alarm, Kati Manikin frowned slightly and spoke again.

"The original battle plan remains unchanged! Now, launch Operation Wave!"

"Understood! All fleets, attention! All fleets, attention! Immediately launch Operation Wave! Immediately launch Operation Wave!"

At a command from Kati Manikin, all the transport ships following the Belga-class space battleships accelerated forward. After passing the array formed by the Belga-class space battleships, a number of white-painted lifeboats seemed to appear behind these transport ships.

The moment these lifeboats appeared, the MS troops that had been on standby immediately stepped forward to respond.

"Andre, successfully received lifeboat No. 3! No abnormalities."

After the Pioneer driven by Andre successfully took over an escape pod with the number "3" painted on it, he immediately sent out a signal.

"Very good! Captain Andre, after sending the escape pod back to the battleship, immediately return to the combat coordinates and continue to be on alert!"

"Yes! Colonel."

In the bridge of the Belga-class space battleship with sequence number 10, Sergei, who did not participate in the first round of attack, watched every move on the main screen with a serious expression.

Operation Wave.

This is the battle plan drawn up by Sergei, Pang Hakuli and others after consultation with Kati Manikin.

According to some rules drawn from A-LAWS's combat experience with the Legion over the years, the Legion must have a large, even overwhelming advantage in total troop strength.

So, how to ensure that we gain an advantage in the first wave of offensive with heavy losses while minimizing the losses of our own troops as much as possible so as to better face the subsequent intense stage is one of the keys to this operation.

Therefore, Kati Manikin proposed a tactical proposal based on and improved on the tactics used by Sergei during the Solar War.

The specific arrangement is to let some of the transport ships following behind the fleet and acting as MS support ships act as bait to attract the enemy's attention first, so that the fleet in the rear can gain more time to analyze the unidentified machines that may appear in the legion and obtain more intelligence to facilitate the next battle.

"A new type of machine made up of multiple Scout-class aircraft? If so, I'm afraid the Legion has more cards hidden under the table."

A serious expression appeared on Sergei's face, but he was not worried about it.

Because, on one side of the battlefield, his companions were also watching the battlefield. Just as the transport ship was flying at full speed towards the vanguard of the legion, the two Ptolemies had already arrived at the battlefield.

"Everyone, according to my prediction, the Earth Federation Fleet will use a variation of the tactics used by Sergei Smirnov in the Fourth Solar Battlefield to launch the first round of attacks."

While Lisa Kujo was speaking, she also asked Felt to forward the demonstration images to the cockpits of all the machines.

"At that time, the transport ships released by the Earth Federation Fleet will serve as bait to lure the Legion into attacking, and will help the Earth Federation obtain as much intelligence as possible from those new machines."

"Of course. These are not just targets. The transport ships themselves are also a trap. When the vanguard of the Legion passes the wreckage of the transport ships, the Earth Federation Army will launch the first wave of offensive and inflict massive casualties on the vanguard of the Legion."

"So, shall we just be spectators for now until the first wave of attacks is over?"

He Ming asked.

Lisa Kujo nodded.

"Yes! We will not participate in the first wave of offensive! Our target is the new machine of the Legion! The goal of our mission this time is to ensure that the offensive of the Earth Federation Fleet does not collapse, while at the same time, to eliminate the new machine hidden by the Legion as quickly as possible!"

"understand!"

The pilots responded one after another.

The first wave of attack begins!!
Just as Kati Manikin had predicted, 10 transport ships loaded with special ammunition lined up in a row, constantly increasing their speed and rushing towards the vanguard of the legion, immediately attracting most of the enemy's attention.

The jellyfish-like figures instantly accelerated and rushed towards the transport ship at an extremely fast speed.

For a moment, Kati Manikin, who was watching, felt the oppression as if a pack of wolves were attacking and biting their prey.

"Record the intelligence immediately! And, summarize the information as quickly as possible!"

"Yes! Brigadier General!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

While the Earth Federation fleet was frantically collecting intelligence, most of the 10 transport ships lined up in a row had been destroyed.

The flashing fireballs made many MS pilots grip the joysticks tightly, staring at the enemy planes that destroyed the transport ship and then turned around to rush towards the fleet.

"Hold on! Hold on!!"

Andre repeatedly urged the players to stay calm and not to act rashly.

"Drive away 5000! The enemy's vanguard has crossed the wave line! The main force is approaching the coordinates of the transport ship!"

A thin layer of sweat appeared on the CIC's forehead, and his hands began to tremble uncontrollably, for fear of missing Kati Manikin's order.

"Wave! Start!"

Kati Manikin shouted in a deep voice.

Without warning, flames burst out from the wreckage of the transport ship, and then exploded into more flames, like the legendary rain of pear blossom needles, launching an indiscriminate all-round attack on the surrounding enemies.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were filled with bright, dazzling, and continuous exploding fireballs.

"Everyone, attack begins!"
