"I'll go, what's wrong with Lin Hai? Such a big move? Is this called only a little support? On the ground, in the city of Calle, Liu Yan was stunned by the fire caused by the missiles dropped from the orbit, and was watching the flying machines that kept appearing in the sky.

These aircraft are large and small, not only the Auger attack planes belonging to his special combat battalion, but also a considerable number of Dragon Eagle fighters. This is not the kind of Auger attack aircraft that is equivalent to the combination of armed helicopters and combat attack aircraft, it is the most elite air fighter in the GDI and even the ground forces of the Iron Eagle Organization.

But Liu Yan not only saw these elite fighters appear on the ground on the low-altitude battlefield, but also estimated that the number was more than a squadron. These advanced warplanes continued to pass over the city at breakneck speeds, dropping missiles or guided bombs on the head of any rebel unit that was exposed, and it didn't matter if it was a rotten tent or some kind of heavy equipment, and even a rebel soldier was about to bomb it, and the critical bombardment never stopped for a moment.

In addition to these advanced fighters, some of those flying machines are small in number, but their huge size is more eye-catching, which is another reason for Liu Yan's surprise.

Those large aircraft are transport aircraft, and there are several that are even large shuttles for space. These aircraft, which are constantly taking off and landing, have also continuously transported materials and equipment for Liu Yan.

A four-legged steel giant slowly walked down from a large shuttle, and the heavy steel feet smashed shallow pits in the sand, because of the restoration of communication and the friendly bombardment, Liu Yan, who had returned to the landing site where the original checkpoint was located, felt that he couldn't close his mouth even more.

【Kii the Annihilator?】 Seeing those steel beasts that looked like bionic mammoths walking in front of him, and the vibrations that fell with each step made people feel a little unstable, Liu Yan was very uneasy in his heart, he knew what kind of thing was called Annihilator, and he knew what kind of monster the second-generation product of this equipment was.

Lin Hai originally had a system-rewarded Annihilator Kii-type walking mecha, which was provided to him by the system, but it was seriously damaged in the previous battle with a giant ground weapon of the Sijing people, and it seems that it has not been repaired until now [but what is this?] 】

This is also a four-legged walking mecha, the appearance looks a little different from the original Annihilator Kii, the body is more "thin", there is no Annihilator Kii on both sides of the main body The most important main weapon of the Annihilator Kii type, the caliber is second only to the 520 mm heavy combined railgun of the main ship of the main ship of the main ship of the Space Fleet. There is only one sealed cabin on each side of this mecha, and the reason why it is said to be a cabin is because Liu Yan saw the hatch from below.

[It's not a maintenance entrance, is it? He guessed.

In addition to the lack of a heavy railgun, the lower part of the cab of this quadruped walking mecha, which is similar to the position of the lower jaw, the Annihilator Kii has a quadruple 30mm cannon, but this mecha is a combined large-caliber cannon or similar weapon, without seeing the information and the actual firing, Liu Yan can't tell what kind of weapon it is, the only thing that can be seen is that the caliber of the combined gun should be more than 200 mm, maybe this is the main weapon of this walking mecha.

In addition to this combined cannon, there are four combined missile launchers on the back of the mech, which are two fewer than the Annihilator Kii, and there are no 150mm combined guns on the back of the Annihilator Kii.

As for the laser point defense system, Liu Yan has not found a location for the time being, but I think that the designer should not lack such an important configuration.

[The original Annihilator Kii has never heard of being repaired, maybe Lin Hai is asking people in the technical department to copy this thing, right?] This thing should be a finished product, and it is likely that it is just test equipment. After watching the mecha walk in front of him and stop in the open space next to the landing field, Liu Yan walked towards the four-legged walking mecha while estimating in his heart.

At this time, the stopped mecha began to kneel, and a platform was lowered on its abdomen, and four people in armored combat uniforms stood in the platform, one of them saw Liu Yan walking towards them, and after greeting the other three, when the platform landed, these four people also walked towards Liu Yan.

"Sir, the second machine of the War Elephant assault mecha experiment has been ordered to come to support the operation." The four soldiers piloting the mecha walked up to Liu Yan, stopped, saluted, and then reported to Liu Yan, "This machine has been adjusted and can be put into battle at any time." ”

"Take a break." After Liu Yan returned the salute casually, he glanced at them, although these four people looked different, he still knew that they were all clones, and asked directly, "Only you are a war elephant mecha?" I didn't get any news that you were coming. ”

"We're just one of the reinforcements, sir." The driver at the head [maybe a car commander?] He replied, "But this time, it's true that only one of us, a walking mech, has come here to fight, on the one hand, to collect actual combat data, and on the other hand, to provide a front-line command center for the commander." ”

"Front-line command center?" Liu Yan glanced up at the four-legged walking mecha called the war elephant, "That means that in addition to being a combat weapon itself, this mecha also has the function of front-line command?" ”

"Yes, sir." The soldier, who was suspected to be the commander of the vehicle, continued to answer, "Because it is the test stage, the War Elephant assault mecha is divided into two models, one is the heavy fire assault type, the firepower is stronger than the original, and the armor is thicker, but the increased firepower and armor require more power, so that the internal space of the mecha will not be enough to accommodate a set of front-line command systems, and because the machine does not have such a strong firepower demand, it has enough internal space to accommodate the front-line commander and the corresponding equipment." ”

"Just as I want." Liu Yan said with some joy that at this time, he really needed a mobile command platform with a considerable level of technology to assist him in his work, and this mecha that could fight and assist in command could not be more suitable for him.

"By the way, Lin Hai just told me that he would send some reinforcements, but the composition and number of reinforcements were not explained, and I didn't receive relevant information, what do you know?" He was about to call his officers to the command center on the battle elephant-style mecha through the communicator, when Liu Yan suddenly asked again.

"We don't know, sir." The clone who answered him was still the clone soldier who might be the commander, "But the command center on the mecha received the encrypted data uploaded by the General Headquarters before leaving, maybe that's what you need." ”

"It's mysterious." Shaking his head, Liu Yan began to call his officers, asking them to gather here at the Battle Elephant Assault Mecha, and those who can't come must also participate in the video conference Anyway, the War Elephant Quadruped Walking Mecha is the size of a large piece, you can see it from afar, and he is not afraid that people will not find it.

Liu Yan was preparing for a meeting here to deploy the next battle plan, and the transport planes and shuttles that were constantly taking off and landing in the sky were also constantly transporting the materials, personnel, and equipment needed by the troops to the city of Calle, which was the front line.

During the time waiting for his officers to gather, Liu Yan saw more than once that the number of heavy equipment accounted for most of the equipment transported, which made Liu Yan muttered in his heart, he didn't know what Lin Hai's intention was to add so many heavy equipment such as tanks and heavy artillery, in his plan, the air force was what he needed most.

When the force is stretched, it is naturally the air force that can quickly reach any battlefield that needs support. In this theater of operations, most of the time, what the regional government forces need is air support, they do not necessarily lack weapons and equipment, compared to the rebels who are too pampered, what they lack is only courage and the will to fight, once these government soldiers get strong air support, their courage and will to fight will also increase a lot, they do not need much ground support, they can repel the rebels on their own.

But now, although there are a lot of fighters passing by in the sky, many of them are still top-notch and advanced fighters, but even if there is no notice, Liu Yan also knows that among these advanced fighters, except for the Augur attack aircraft, which has extremely low requirements for the landing field and is extremely maintainable, other advanced fighters such as the Dragon Eagle cannot be left for his own use.

Most of the heavy equipment transported was tanks, especially the fourteen super-heavy tanks with combined heavy guns that were not much smaller than the Battle Elephant assault mech.

"Annihilator Type IV?" Seeing these big guys gathered near the landing site, Liu Yan had an urge to cover his face, although in the desert Gobi terrain, heavy equipment such as tanks can also exert full combat performance, but what is the point of bringing these super heavy tanks? He didn't need to attack any forts, and the rebels didn't have any high-value targets worth dealing with with the successors of the Annihilator III Super Heavy Tank.

Annihilator IV is a new model of tank upgraded and improved on the basis of the original Annihilator III super heavy tank, and it is also a new equipment that has only recently completed testing and officially put into mass production. This new super-heavy tank has a larger size (heavier, higher) than the Type III, a larger caliber main gun (but only uses a coil gun, and the external version even only uses an electric cannon), thicker armor (there is not much improvement in materials, and it is not even as good as the Type III with adapted armor), and better high-temperature defense (the so-called new mirror armor is good for laser defense, and has some defense against plasma weapons, but it is not as good as ablative armor) because this type of super-heavy tank is built to deceive people. It is intended for use by outsiders.

The direct troops will only be equipped with a small amount of meaning, and will not use this kind of goods on the real battlefield. Of course, this does not mean that this super heavy tank is garbage, it is just not as perfect as it is advertised, and it can still be used to engage the ground forces of the Sijing people head-on, and now it is used to deal with the rebels with worse equipment, so it is naturally possible.

However, the mobility of the Annihilator IV was too slow to meet the needs of the rapid strike force in Liu Yan's plan.

[Do you want me to use these things as a mobile turret?] After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Yan also thought about the best use of these super-heavy tanks in this place in the battle that could be completed with only the Stalker tank and those mobile armor.

However, it didn't matter, judging from the constant take-off and landing of the transport planes, the resupply campaign would continue for a long time, which meant that more things would arrive in the future, and maybe he could get other weapons that were more suitable for the current battle.
