Volume II, Chapter 146: Into the Rhineland
September 27, 2506. The fourth star field, the unstable space zone of Acheron. Black triangle windless zone, fertile star.
On the ground, someone inadvertently glanced into the air. I was attracted by the vision in the air, and wondered what it was. And some people who have insight seem to remember something. I always felt that it was something terrible.
Before most of them could react, a group of faster firing lines overtook them and headed straight for the mines of the Black Domain Mercenary Guild. That's a terrifying speed.
Mine mercenaries, can you still remember the scene not long ago, the Emerald Bird-class destroyer's artillery support. The two were the same, except this time, the things seemed bigger, faster, and more terrifying.
"Hidden!"
I don't know who suddenly awakened the memory of the battlefield and reflexively shouted out the military terminology. It's okay, everyone can move this, especially those who have been on the battlefield. It's almost a reflex to look for cover, and not to stand in the dark trying to figure out the situation.
If there is, it will not survive this time.
But how many places can the mine have to avoid this caliber of artillery fire, and those who are lucky will jump off the mine on the spot, or the cracks left by the zombie dragon king's breaking ground.
Knock knock knock, the sound of a continuous dull explosion, almost in unison, lasted for more than ten seconds. This round of artillery fire was followed by the heavy bass sound of metal hitting the ground.
The standard process of a storm, the sudden artillery fire covering, the pre-measured orbital airdrop troops, stuck in the ground after a round of shelling.
Most of them were killed by the explosives thrown in before they could get out of their bunkers. Some of those who were lucky enough to stand in the gap between the artillery fire, and those who were left out, were killed by the paratroopers of Hell before they had time to rejoice in the rest of their lives.
They are wearing special super heavy armor, which is powerful and has explosive defense. A living war machine, a land battle killing god. If you want to say that there is no one in there, it is very convincing.
After the Hell paratroopers landed to sweep away the nearby personnel, they immediately identified the direction and rushed beyond the target area. Long Qicong didn't know anything about this, and most of the temporary hospitals were gone in a trance.
Long Qicong didn't react at all, what happened. When the artillery fire passed, I had a faint bad premonition in my heart, and I stepped out of the hospital bed to check the situation.
Knock knock. Bang bang bang!
The sound of gunfire, explosions, one after another, intensified. Long Qicong thought about it again and again, could it be that other forces in the underworld couldn't think of rushing to the mercenary union in the underworld?
At the same time, the Minotaurs-class cruisers in the air were not idle. Straighten the hull with the bow pointing to the ground as far as possible, and the sides facing the ships on either side.
If only the main gun were still there, it wouldn't be so troublesome. Directly with the main guns of the cruiser, the surrounding boats, not yet one cannon at a time? Now you can only use the secondary guns on the side and the close defense guns to solve the threats around the perimeter.
The ships on both sides were shot down before they realized the sudden change in the situation. These were mostly civilian boats, with no shields. A few are retired warships, and they are reluctant to open every minute with shields. In this way, it was solved by these small-caliber secondary guns.
The near ones are dealt with, and the next ones are far! Turn the hull again, and aim the bow at the ship in the distance. The main guns are gone, and there are anti-ship missiles.
A round of missiles was fired in an instant, overwhelming the world. Then immediately reload, ready to shoot the next round. At the same time, carrier-based aircraft are also taking off, waiting for the combat formation to be fully formed.
On the ground, the mines of the Black Domain Mercenary Guild are hot, and the top mercenaries can barely temporarily resist the Hell paratroopers. Others were almost unilaterally crushed. As the gap in the number of the two sides gradually increases, no matter what level of mercenary is inevitable.
War is never fair and alone.
Although the paratroopers of Hell are also the king of soldiers, the elite of the elite. However, in the final analysis, there are mostly mortals who have no spiritual power. However, their super-heavy armor, the hammer of Thor, MK.NC, the crystallization of Federation technology.
The armor of the Hell Paratroopers was not originally MK.NC of Thor's hammer.
At the time of development, the Federation's Jedi knights were almost entirely in the hands of the Drager family, and the non-military warriors were completely monopolized by the Drager family.
Once the Drager rebelled, then the Federation would not have the strength to fight these samurai.
It was against this background that the Fifth Division of Military Aircraft came up with a MK.NC plan to create an armor that would allow ordinary soldiers to fight against samurai.
What people don't realize is that things are not fully developed, they are still in the experimental stage, and Dregg himself is gone. Sometimes, happiness comes too suddenly.
However, MK. What about the NC program? It's a bit embarrassing, and the biggest problem is that in the early stage, I only think about performance, and I don't care about whether the soldier can handle it at all.
In order to achieve the performance indicators, the empty weight without any accessories is 800 kilograms. 0.8 tons, 1,600 catties, this is definitely not something that ordinary people can control. Just because of its strong power, people who can't control it can break their bones if they move it casually.
It's a pity to lose this powerful armament. After a round of testing, MK. The NC has almost become a tailor-made piece of equipment for the paratroopers of Hell. It can only be used by super soldiers like the Hell Paratroopers.
Hell paratroopers, with this equipment. Fight against high-level mercenaries, and even be able to stabilize one's head. When the overall situation was decided, several hell paratrooper squads gave each other a signal.
Immediately, several squads pierced into the mercenaries like sharp knives. Rampage and quickly cut the group of mercenaries into small pieces. The rest of the paratroopers followed closely as soon as the rift was torn, expanding the rift and dividing the encirclement.
Everyone felt like they were alone, everyone was asking for help. And almost everyone, wants to run away. The front, several kilometers wide, collapsed in an instant.
The paratroopers gradually surrounded the field hospital, stopping a kilometer away.
"Hell Paratrooper Team A1, call the bridge."
"This is Qin Zhentian, answer."
"We have surrounded the target, as planned. Please instruct! ”
"Maintain the encirclement, and the follow-up troops will arrive immediately."
Why not just throw yourself at the hospital with paratroopers? Instead, they will be thrown elsewhere and then encircled?
The first point, no matter how advanced the technology is, it is impossible to achieve accurate orbital airborne landing at a limited cost. Second, there is no war that is directly airborne to the target's face, because the risk is uncontrollable.
Thirdly, and decisively, it is not unwilling, but it is really impossible. It is impossible to achieve vertical landing in orbit, and outside the synchronous orbit, the orbiting speed cannot keep up with the rotation speed, and the farther away the slower. In the synchronous orbit, the orbital velocity is higher than the planet's rotation speed, and the closer it gets, the faster.
