Despite Lear's proclamation to surrender and the brutal 'execution' of the USS Missouri.

But of course, the Federation Army could not succumb to this pressure, on the contrary, they were aware of the disparity in combat effectiveness and fought more vigorously.

Lear himself didn't expect to be able to crush the First Fleet's will to fight with this blow, this time the 'show' was not so much for the Federation Army, but for the Zeon Army behind him, obviously the performance was quite good, and a considerable part of the MS began to follow Lear's back to coordinate the assault, including even the entire squad.

Very good, Lear gasped, although the six consecutive angle maneuvers just now were very effective, but it was also a very physically demanding action, he could even feel the muscles of his forearms trembling slightly, and the part of his upper body that connected the vest and the spacesuit also felt some sticky unpleasantness.

While still on the USS Missouri, he took the short moment to think about his next course, and the goal was still to penetrate the First Fleet's line of defense.

Frankly speaking, Lear's behavior, from his personal point of view, although it seems to be very personal heroic, is also very handsome and domineering, and it fits the definition of a so-called hero perfectly, but from the perspective of the entire Zeon Army, it is a stupid behavior.

It is not beneficial to entangle with the First Fleet in a group, if it is only to win the war, the smartest choice is, of course, to entangle the First Fleet with a small number of troops, and then the main force bypasses the First Fleet and launches a thunderous blow while Reybir is not firmly established.

But now the actual situation is that at least half of the MS are rushing towards the First Fleet, and the number of MSs originally intended to attack the Second Fleet has been greatly reduced, and it is conceivable that the MS that is caught in a melee with the First Fleet must attack the MS of the Second Fleet in a smaller number, and the losses of both sides will be greatly increased, and the benefits are the Federation Army, and I don't know if Cecilia will jump because of this completely unexpected emergency.

Of course, this is also deliberate on Lear's part, after his inducement, the MS troops of the Zeon Army who bypassed from both flanks are much less because of their own spoilers, and I hope that Reybir can hold out until he arrives.

If you think about it carefully, this battle is really a bit ridiculous, the person who helped the Federation the most is in hostility, and now Lear, who is feared by a considerable number of Union soldiers, and Lear, who is attacking the Federation and will continue to attack, is full of the idea of 'collaborating with the enemy', which can only be an intriguing coincidence of the world.

Lear himself seemed to be aware of this, and couldn't help but smile wryly.

But the attack can't be stopped, the Federation Army did not give in, and then Lear will continue to put more pressure on the First Fleet, forcing them to collapse, his purpose is not to completely annihilate the First Fleet, but to break through it, as long as the Federation Army is shaken, there will inevitably be a gap in their defense, as long as there is a gap, the MS, which is far more agile than the battleship, can quickly break through them.

Then the next target, Lear escaped from the Missouri in the Thunderlight, and he dodged the attack of the Federation warship while looking for the next target.

The target, the flagship of the commander of the First Fleet, Rear Admiral Walken, was the Magellan.

Behind him were more Zeon MSs who had already flocked to the First Fleet, the sheer size of the gunners who were about to face them with chills.

One such Union anti-aircraft gunner was Corporal Greene Elan, who was part of the First Fleet's First Fleet Squadron Squadron Nemesis Nemesis and was responsible for the operation of the No. 4 anti-aircraft turret on the left side of the Lexington.

In other words, facing the USS Missouri, or the Thunder Side.

He didn't realize when he had stopped firing.

Greene Elan felt that he could not be blamed for this, because it was not that he did not shoot in the first place, but that he did not feel himself stopping after repeated failed shots.

It's easy to understand that when humans perceive that their approach is not working, they will naturally stop, which is a normal thing.

"Corporal Elan, keep shooting!"

"Corporal Elan, can you hear me?"

"Corporal Greene Elan, I don't want to repeat it any more!"

"If you don't shoot again, I'll stuff you in a missile and shoot you into the sun, do you hear me, you XX!!"

Under the roar of the captain of the bridge gunner, Green finally came to his senses and focused his mind on the Zeon MS who was rushing towards the Lexington.

But I have to admit that when he opened fire, his heart was empty and frightened.

Of course, he didn't think about surrendering or running away, he was born in SIDE2 and couldn't be with Zeon anyway, but even if he didn't give up and insisted on resisting, what was the point?

Green clearly remembered that his anti-aircraft cannon had no effect on Thunderlight's body except to splash sparks, and if Zeon's MS was at this level, Green felt that his battle must be worthless.

Even if he could cause even a little damage to Zeon, Green could think that his sacrifice was not in vain, but he could not cause any damage, and his life was inevitably too cheap.

With such a dazed and empty look, Green opened fire on the oncoming MS.

The anti-aircraft gun attached to the battleship of the Federal Army is a 25mm quadruple anti-aircraft gun, with four barrels protruding from the round turret on the surface of the battleship, which is somewhat reminiscent of the ZSU-23-4 'Shilka' anti-aircraft gun of the former Soviet Union.

In terms of performance alone, this is by no means a bad product, this anti-aircraft gun is capable of spraying 5,600 rounds of 25mm shell-piercing shells in one minute, which is very good against fighters and even assault boats.

However, the effect on MS seems to be very poor.

This is, of course, Green's delusion, the close defense guns of the Federation battleships are indeed not a high threat to Zagu, but there are ten on the side of such close defense guns on the Magellan class, if Zagu stands still and allows the close defense guns to fire, he will have to withstand 56,000 shells in a minute (of course, in actual combat, because of the level of the gunner and the collision of shells in the limited firing range), so many metal piles also pile the MS to death.

In fact, MS does not rely purely on armor resistance in the ship, but more uses high mobility to evade rather than withstand attacks, Lear's previous performance, on the one hand, is to use Lei Guang's unreasonable high defense, on the other hand, it is also because he stands on an friendly warship, including the common result of various reasons such as shooting range and concern about friendly damage.

Because of this, MS is actually a very dangerous job, during the one-year war, auxiliary warships and transport ships are not counted, and being able to sink a battleship alone can be said to have stepped into the world of aces, even in the Zeon army with many aces, there are really not many such people, even Char Shaya only sank a total of 5 battleships in the Battle of Rum, four of which are still the less threatening Salamis-class.

Without the existence of ace pilots such as Lear, Char, and Black Triple Star, ordinary MS pilots can only take advantage of the squad to attack from multiple directions, seizing the weak point of firepower to break through and attack.

If Grimm knows anything about the Zeon side's armament, it can be seen from the appearance that this Zagu, who has neither special paint nor the antenna of the captain's aircraft, is just an ordinary pilot.

And the driver of this airframe, if Lear had seen it, might have the impression that it was the young pilot who was looking for his autograph in Granada.

A young pilot belonging to the 22nd Squadron of the 2nd Mecha Division of the Assault Mobile Corps, Lear didn't even ask his name.

Even so, he genuinely longs for Lear, who is the same age as him, but who walks on a path that has nothing to do with his mediocre life, and this young man not only worships Lear as an idol, but also has the idea of seeing Lear as a goal in his heart, or even surpassing him.

It was precisely because of this idea that he was one of the first pilots to respond to Lear's call, leaving the ranks of the 22nd Squadron, and despite the squadron leader's angry scolding and the punishment he would receive later, he insisted on moving in the direction of Lear, which also made him one of the closest pilots to Lear, and even slightly ahead of the MS troops of the Einsatzgruppen Fleet.

"If the lieutenant can do it, so can I!"

His eyes were red, and it was the blood that surged after being agitated.

"Make a contribution and get ahead!!" He let out a roar in his throat and fired a nuclear bomb at the Lexington.

However, it is impossible for a single nuclear bomb to break through the fire network of the close defense gun and hit the battleship itself, and it is the basic principle of a single anti-ship to find or even induce a loophole in the firepower network of the battleship during the maneuver.

And now, apparently, there is neither.

The exploding nuclear bomb exploded into a fireball in the air, but as mentioned earlier, in a vacuum without the medium of transmission of air, the maximum range of the nuclear bomb's weapon of destruction, that is, the shock wave generated when it explodes, was useless, and he realized that if he really wanted to sink it, he had to get close enough to it.

He rushed towards the Lexington, and in the face of Zagu rushing over, Green also subconsciously shot tongues of fire at him.

“！” Faced with the artillery fire of Lexington's counterattack, the young pilot immediately wanted to avoid it, however, a certain stubbornness and longing led him to use a technique that he had not learned.

Angle maneuvering.

As mentioned before, the angle maneuver is a dangerous maneuver that only appears in the elite of the MS Teaching Brigade in the advanced tactical lectures, and the young pilots are just recruits who have received 5 months of training, and this kind of difficult maneuver will certainly not be taught.

But it has to be said that what he said to Lear on the moon that he was the best one to fly in their squadron was not a boastful lie, but the truth, he was a genius who had only flown 120 hours and had the strength of the elite of the teaching brigade.

In time, maybe he will also be a trump card.

But here he chose the wrong tactic.

"Okay, I can 。。。。。。!" The angle maneuver he hastily used wasn't standard, but it dodged Green's attack.

But that's all, he just dodged Green's attack.

The same anti-aircraft turrets, ten on the side of the Lexington.

Before his words fell, he was hit by the bullet chain fired from the side, although the 25mm shelling armor-piercing bullet could not effectively penetrate the super tensile steel armor, but the posture of the hit was unbalanced, although he immediately used the AMBAC maneuver to reposition the stance, but it was too late.

This momentary imbalance became a fatal affair, and the most important thing in space warfare was speed and posture, and the loss of both was self-evident.

In fact, Lear dared to use six consecutive angle maneuvers because the Mega Particle Cannon could estimate the point of the bullet through the barrel, and it could not fire continuously, and he himself did not dare to show off in front of high-speed weapons.

Seeing the green Zagu pause for a moment, Green instinctively aimed his weapon at it, and the four-barreled anti-aircraft gun sprayed a seemingly endless rain of bullets.

"。。。。。。" The young pilot only had time to say a word, but was interrupted by the violent vibration of the body, as if he was sitting on a Ferris wheel in an earthquake, and the whole person kept shaking back and forth even with the seat belt.

The pipelines (Note 1) on Zagu's body, which was set on fire by the anti-aircraft guns, burst through, and the red-black engine oil flowed out along the green armor like blood, and then there was damage to the attitude control nozzles on his body in many places, after all, he was just an inexperienced recruit, and the young pilot fell into chaos under the attack of various alarms of different meanings in the Zagu cabin, and he was completely unable to accurately judge the state of the body from the various alarms, as if he was thinking, but in fact his brain couldn't move at all.

He panicked and subconsciously pushed the joystick to try to get out of place, but in the case of most of the damage to the attitude control nozzle, the body should be stabilized by redistributing the nozzle vector, which does not even require the pilot to operate himself, but has a set of forming instructions, which only need the pilot to give a command and automatically recalculate and control the output power of the nozzle.

Just enter the command.

However, he had become so flustered that he had forgotten even the basics.

You can imagine what the end will be.

Zagu, who barely started it, flipped over due to the uneven distribution of vectors, and Zagu, who could have been able to face the enemy head-on, completely lost control like garbage thrown into space, and his back, which should never have been exposed, was uncovered under ten anti-aircraft guns.

"Ahhh!!h The young pilot, who couldn't even tell the difference between up and down, left and right, could only scream and pull the lever indiscriminately: "Help, save me!" ”

And then it becomes a worthless firework.

"Well done!!" In contrast, there was the earth-shattering cheers of the Lexington.

"Zeon's Zagu isn't invincible!"

Green's hands were still trembling slightly, and it was he who had just delivered the final blow to the Zagu, so the cheers and compliments of his comrades came from his communications.

Confidence that had been almost destroyed by Lear's thunder began to revive again, and he realized that the yellow Zagu was something different, and that the MS was not invincible except for the mech.

When this was understood, the tragic atmosphere of the battle, which had been almost to the death, began to slowly dissipate, and the desire for victory returned to the hearts of the people of the Lexington.

That's right, Zeon's MS is really good, but!

It's not like we're powerless, we can win!

Thinking so, Green, in front of him, a new Zeon Army MS appeared.

It was a neatly formed group of Zagu, who didn't seem to be ready to engage Lexington, but followed straight behind Thunderlight.

Although there was no difference in the paint, everyone was holding shields, and among them was a specially painted black Zagu, and the strange aura made Green subconsciously think that it was the same existence as the thunder light, which made him nervous.

But then he plucked up his courage again, and I was already different from the coward who didn't dare to fight back!

With such a somewhat resembling anger and venting, he fired a cannonball at the group of MSs, to put it mildly, turning anger into bullets.

With his attack, the Einsatzgruppen MS troops, who had not intended to entangle with the Lexington, noticed the battleship, and they did not stop, but separated a fuselage to meet them.

The reason why the Einsatzgruppen Fleet can be said to be elite is that in order to intercept the Fourth Fleet, Dozru and Cecilia configured it with the elite of the teaching brigade, among which there are no rookies who are urgently trained before the war, in fact, although at the beginning of the Fourth Fleet, the Einsatzgruppen Fleet seemed a little unprepared, but it was an inevitable manifestation of new recruits going into battle, and later, when the pilots of the Einsatzgruppen Fleet transformed knowledge and training into combat effectiveness, it could be said to be Zeon's well-deserved trump card troops.

And at this moment, Zagu, who is facing the Lexington, has a unique insignia on its shield.

It was a one-horned zebra.

The name of the comer is not well known at the moment, but he is the trump card that left his name in the history of Zeon's war.

Jonny Lydon.

This big blonde boy who always acts as a peacemaker between Cardo and Matsunaga, although he doesn't look like it, is really the number one ace of the Special Fleet, second only to Lear, and even above Anabel Cardo, who has an overly extreme fighting style, and Matsunaga Shin, who has no professional training himself.

"Fire coverage! It's the same as before! The communicator heard the words of the gunner.

"Cool shooting, it's just an extra shield!"

"You must be fine, it's better to disrupt his posture and shoot him in the back like just now, understand?"

"Understood!" ”

Green shouted loudly with his companions, the melee guns were replicating the battle just now, and this time, the more experienced Federation gunners spontaneously assigned their firing positions, some aimed at their hands and feet, and some tried to shoot directly at the main display in the head.

However, Jonny Lydon is not the same as the nameless young pilot, and although he is not yet fully formed, he has already accumulated experience against Federation warships when he has fought against the elite of the Fourth Fleet.

Because he also knows that the response of the federal anti-aircraft artillery is to never stay where it is.

Although it feels like the boss of the house is darkened, it is a fact.

Jonny's mech stood the shield in front of him, then flexed his legs and curled behind the shield in an awkward position, revealing only the main display of his head and the nuclear rocket launcher.

He didn't use any special technique to sensationalize, but chose a very ordinary, textbook-like arc maneuver, spinning like a bee spinning around a battleship.

This is to make the gunners 'fatigue', and it is very difficult to search for a specific target in the infinite universe, even in a non-Minovsky particle environment, with the assistance of electromechanical equipment.

Green operated the anti-aircraft turret in vain, he couldn't remember how many times he had captured the presence of that Zagu, but the other party was out of his range in an instant, and after five or three times, he already felt numb, and his mood began to become agitated.

"Bang !!" However, just as he was feeling anxious, he suddenly felt a violent vibration of the battleship under him, which was not an ordinary vibration caused by the movement of the battleship, but-

Hit!!

"Woo woo woo !!" The alarm sounded at the right time, and the corridor behind Green suddenly turned into a red light for the state of emergency!

What's going on? What exactly was hit? Although his duties kept him searching for Jonny Lydon's tracks, the fear and nervousness caused by the damage to the battleship distracted him, and it wasn't really serious, it was just a few seconds of ceasefire.

Then Jonny caught this gap.

After seizing the gap and hitting the front turret of the Lexington, Jonny finally seized the opportunity to sink the battleship, that is, the moment when the empty door on the side of the battleship opened, compared to the front that would reduce combat effectiveness but was not fatal, the reactor wrapped in the battleship was the real fatal weakness.

Seeing the moment when Zagu shot a nuclear bomb at his position, Green only felt that time suddenly stopped, and his back was wet in an instant with cold sweat, he already knew that the other party's purpose was to destroy the core reactor behind him, and he also had a premonition of what his fate would be.

Time stopped, but his body couldn't move.

He could only watch as the nuclear bomb concentrated on the armor of the battleship in front of him, and then he didn't know anything.

The Lexington, where the core reactor was hit, formed a fireworks that were even more brilliant than the Zagu explosion just now, and the huge battleship was blown in two, and the soldiers in the cabin were thrown into the universe by the convection of the air.

And Johnny Lydon, who had done all this, did not stop to look at the necromancer, but did not look back to catch up with the MS unit of the Eindustrious Fleet that had gone deep into the hinterland of the First Fleet defense line with Lear。。。。。。。

"The First Fleet of the Union Army, the USS Lexington, has been sunk by our army!"

In exchange for the cheers of the Zeon army after hearing the news and their harder attack, that's all.

———— Dividing Line————

Note 1: After I finished writing the previous chapter, I looked back and thought that it was really unscientific for Lei Guang to stand in place and resist damage, even if the bullets of the close defense cannon could not penetrate the Luna titanium alloy armor, they could also interrupt places such as heat pipes。。。。。。

Therefore, the Zeon MS pipeline is exposed to the pit design, although it is very handsome, yes, although it is very handsome.

It's really, I didn't think it through, and some friends in the book friend group reminded me of this problem, but I wrote it all, and everyone thought it was Lear's rare burst of the protagonist's aura, and the fragile part was unharmed.

I've been stuck for so long, and I'm sorting out the plot, and when I write hundreds of thousands of words, there will be a conflict of details, and I'll pay attention to it in the future。。。。。。 I'm sorry........
