Chapter 10 Lines of Fire Defense
Although these people present are called "miscellaneous fish of the garrison", after all, they are also regular troops of the community, and they still have at least the quality. Although the soldiers were full of slander, they still carried out the previous orders.
Yu Lian was quite satisfied, and among all the military organizations he had seen, their quality was at least not at the bottom.
So, a minute after Ina's warning, everyone was in their predetermined tactical positions.
At this time, Yu Lian also climbed to a sentry cannon on the outer city wall and checked the too primitive operating system.
It's like a handshake, and there's no fire control.
The intersection of the primitive and the future, the core of the classical and the old-fashioned, hidden under the grandeur of the sea of stars, is full of what a splendid and wonderful world!
That's the true style of space opera, right?
Yu Lian sighed and pressed a whole box of steel-spiked shells into the magazine. And at this time, under the scorching sun, most people finally saw the black spots that emerged after the turbid heat wave.
There was a brief commotion from the soldiers, but it stopped at the sound of Lieutenant Mondsham and Ina.
"Sure enough......" Yu Lian sighed, looking intently at the approaching black spots, looking for a smaller, but more threatening target.
"Chief, sir, I, we'll survive, right?" Yu Lian heard the sound of trembling behind him, glanced at it with his spare eyes, and saw a young private about his own age, carrying a gun on his back and clutching an ammunition box in both hands, as if this would give him a little sense of security.
It seems to be the loader of this cannon, what is it called Bunanje.
"I do my best! You also have to protect yourself and don't forget what you learned in the boot camp. ”
The other party seemed to be trembling even more, like a stray puppy with an expectant look. Yu Lian knew what he wanted to say, but he really couldn't say such irresponsible words as "I will definitely let each of you live".
At this time, the black spots on the horizon had expanded tenfold in their line of sight. It's only then that everyone finally saw those things.
It was like a large legless centipede with huge bat wings, with four barbs on its skull, a pair of large mouths that occupied more than half of the entire head, and a rugged carapace all over its body, which was tightly shielded from even the belly of the worm, which was supposed to be a weak point.
"Dragonworm...... Tsk, as long as you don't evolve, you're a brother in a brother! The key thing to be afraid of is the explosion of mosquitoes! Uh, okay...... There should be none by now. ”
Yu Lian knew that when those small things that only had sparrows swept over the sky like locusts, even those invincible Titan ships roaming the galaxy would be at a loss.
The dragon insects were getting closer and closer, and they let out a piercing sound of "woo-la-la", as if the banshee was screaming.
Yu Lian looked at the soldiers who had already raised their weapons one after another, and then skimmed Private Bunanjie, who was holding the ammunition box and continued to tremble, with the corner of his eye, and finally made a gesture to Ina on the other side of the tower. He believed that Ina would be able to see it.
Only then did he turn his attention to the enemy who pounced on him. The sentinel cannon he operates has no fire control, no rangefinder, and it still uses a hand crank, if there is anything better than a real phalanx, it is very good at the ability of the shooter and personal heroism, which is quite in line with the three views of the universe in which he is located.
At this time, he can only use the naked eye to judge the best time to fire. Fortunately, I have accumulated a lot of experience in this area in my previous life.
“2000…… 1500…… 1200......" Yu Lian silently judged the distance of the other party in his heart, and the other party's roar became louder and louder. The mouthparts in the center of the four barbs have been opened, and the blade insects that are slowly emerging inside are not real, but they also exude a trembling sense of oppression.
"Ahh......h Mommy, Mommy......" The loader screamed.
…… So why did you come to be a soldier? Yu Lian wanted to sympathize with the other party, but he couldn't sympathize, so he pulled down the joystick with his hand.
The firepower was woven like a long whip of light swung in the air, directly slicing the head of a dragon worm, slicing it apart at the same time as the blade worm that had already crawled to the edge of the mouth.
And almost at the same moment, Ina also fired. This time, instead of firing three shots, she tightened the joystick, and fired more than a dozen shells in an instant, sweeping over, and sweeping the three insect dragons down on the spot.
…… Well, Yu Lian must admit that even if he really installed a fire control radar, he would not be able to achieve this kind of record. This is the most magical but also the most fascinating part of this world.
"A natural sniper, but also a natural gunner! It's only natural that she will eventually awaken the 'Star Hunter'. In other words, there is no better way for her than to hunt stars. ”
The rest of the sentry guns also fired, this time not so accurately, but at least a barrage could be formed to limit the enemy's trajectory. Yu Lian was actually not very satisfied, the really well-trained gunners used the same hand-cranked anti-aircraft guns, but they could also form dense firepower coordination in space warfare. Even if you are facing a heraldic machine piloted by a high-level awakened person, it can still suppress the enemy into a small space until it completely shreds the opponent. The elite forces of the Empire and the Alliance can do it, but back then, no...... In the future, when he was a young man in his previous life, the unit he participated in could also do it.
Time flies, it's really embarrassing!
Probably because of luxury, it is difficult to make a frugality. Yu Lian had served in the most elite units and fought against the toughest enemies, so it was natural that he didn't like his current teammates in every way, but no matter what, the soldiers of the garrison were still shooting hard, doing their best to stop the flying monsters from approaching.
The soldiers who were stationed on the city walls and in the trenches were also ready to join in the shooting, but were stopped by their respective non-commissioned officers, which of course was also arranged in advance by Yu Lian.
Lieutenant Mondsen had somehow appeared in the trenches outside the city walls, his beloved chainsaw sword in his hand, his rifle in front of him, and a muffled cigarette. He was thinking about how much of the spoils he had just gotten to the moon man after the matter was over, so that he could get a little kind in front of Chief Bonaparte.
"Sir, look ahead!" Sergeant Youyou, who was standing on the outer wall, said loudly.
"I saw it, and when I came, I came." The lieutenant continued to smoke silently, watching the sudden rise of smoke grow stronger and stronger in his sight. Until he could see the monster in the smoke and dust.
There are "smaller" monsters like clawed hyenas and carapace cobras, and there are monsters that appear later like octopus-clawed scorpions that should be more powerful.
"The colonies of New Yumen have been established for decades, and they don't know that there is such a thing in this place? What kind of genius are the intelligence departments? Well, it seems that the old men above do eat dry rice. The only thing to learn is to eat a late-night snack with Tintin! ”
The lieutenant took a hard gulp of the remaining half of the muffled cigarette, raised his hand to flick the cigarette butt at the swarm in front of him, and raised his rifle with a blank face.
"Woohoo!" A near-perfect rhythm of three shots. Lieutenant Mondson said, "Although I haven't read much, I'm still willing to learn." Since that moon baby shoots like this, it must be a shooting secret skill that only some elite troops have mastered.
In an instant, the steel nail bullet crossed a distance of more than 300 meters, shattering the center of a dinosaur on the spot.
The soldiers in the trenches cheered loudly for the lieutenant's magic shot, and the lieutenant was also full of color, but he was a little embarrassed inside. He was actually aiming at the "Cobra" next to him.
As a veteran (meow, I don't know why this is also harmonious) ruffian, Mr. Mondson is actually quite self-aware, and doesn't think he can hit the "eight-clawed spider" so far - uh, didn't the moon man say that? The crux of the monster was the center of the two claws. It's smaller than a man's head.
Anyway, Lieutenant Mondson's "sharpshoot" boosted everyone's morale, and the soldiers opened fire.
The sentry guns, as well as the three-tiered inclined fire positions, formed an almost impermeable interception fire net, forming an almost impenetrable fire barrier under the gentle slope of the station. But I saw a rain of bullets and dust, and the stumps and bodily fluids of insects splashed everywhere in between, and no fish caught in the net could cross the dead line. The screams were not painful, but there was a faint hint of anger and ruin.
…… If you follow the usual firepower configuration, they may have rushed in front of you, right? The lieutenant couldn't help but think so. He felt a little hungry for his chainsaw broadsword, but he thought it would be good and he didn't have to take any more risks.
Moonman, really worthy of being a moonman!
And on the heavenly side, with Ina, a marksman, the hand-cranked air cannon also hit quite accurately. After all, the current dragon bugs are still the first batch of test subjects, far from the many improved versions of the stars that can withstand the particle cannons and honeycomb missiles of warships in the universe in later generations, and once they are hit by 20mm high-carbon steel nail bullets, they will still lose their combat effectiveness.
Soon, both on the ground and in the air, more than half of the insects were killed, or their bones and tendons were broken and they were dying.
The little private Bu Nanjie, who was hiding behind the turret, was no longer calling for his mother, staring at the back of Yu Lian on the gun emplacement, and did not hide his explicit worship. He could see the whole process and know who had just arranged the defense.
"Reload!" Yu Lian said loudly.
It took nearly a second for the little private to react, and he hurriedly pulled open the bullet compartment under the turret, pulled out the empty box inside, and stuffed the box full of steel nails inside.
The others were getting more and more relaxed, but Yu Lian was still very nervous, he didn't feel that the other party was just a few brushes. Since it is to extinguish the mouth, how can it not be done to the extreme? They probably haven't pointed out the tech tree for the mosquito blast yet, but at least there are dragon bugs. So, will it be ......
As soon as he thought of this, Yu Lian felt his heart tighten, and he felt as if he was being covered by a dark cloud. He then realized that this was not "as if", but something that was actually happening.
A behemoth that was seven or eight points similar to those dragon insects, but more than ten meters long, appeared from the direction of the zenith and swooped down silently, only less than a hundred meters away from everyone at this time.
