160, "Liangzhu"
"What's going on?"
Anton dialed the bridge communication, Jessica on the line: "There is a battle on the M7 route, it is expected to pass through the combat area after 2 o'clock. ”
"Can't you take a detour?"
Li Youde next to Jessica interjected: "The other routes to the earth are controlled by HER, and it will take a month to go around at the earliest." ”
"So you're going to have to go hard, right... I know. ”
"I may not be able to do it, there is a colonial satellite Liangzhu near the M7 route, asking for help from them may help us cross the M7 route safely, wait for me to contact and see."
"Understood."
Anton ended the communication and said to Lin Ao: "Our A team will be on the deck in a while, you go and inform Edward and Natasha." ”
"Will Unit 2 work?" Lin Ao asked.
"Old Ah Du has checked, HER didn't do anything, you can start, go!"
…
Half an hour later, the bridge of the Osiris could clearly see the fire in the area of engagement. And Li Youde sent to Liangzhu to communicate at this time:
"We are the Osiris of the colonial satellite Mycenae, because the M7 route is at war and needs to pass through the area of your satellite, can we let it go?"
There seems to be interference in the communication on the opposite side, only sound and no image:
"We are the 503rd Regiment of Xingyu, and we are fighting against HER on the border of Liangzhu, please be patient and wait until the battle is over."
"Please, in my opinion, your battle situation is not optimistic, I'm afraid that I will have to wait a few more hours to detour! If you need help, we can go to war as reinforcements. ”
There was silence for a moment, as if to confirm the Osiris's message, and then they: "Thank you Mycenae for your kindness, but now it's up to us." If you are in a hurry to pass, please take a detour to this route, which is on the back of Liangzhu, far away from the combat area and safe. ”
"Thank you! Good luck! ”
When the communication ended, Jessica asked, "Why don't they want us to help?" ”
Li Youde scratched his neck: "I don't want to owe favors, although the teacher wants me to find a chance to repay the previous Xing Meien, but since they don't appreciate it, forget it." ”
"Well, you can make less trouble." Jessica.
"However, if the M7 is snatched away by HER, Mycenae's road to Earth will be difficult..."
…
"Liangzhu" is a colonial satellite group of the same size as Mycenae, and the route given by the Star Alliance is just on the "back of Liangzhu", and the other side is the battlefield. The Osiris is not a loner on this route, as many ships transporting evacuees also sail here. Seeing the ships on deck, Lin Ao asked, "Lieutenant, will HER attack the colonial satellites?" ”
"It used to be very common, but recently this kind of thing is rare, in my opinion, this time HER just wants to snatch the shipping lanes and exert pressure to make the colonial satellite surrender on its own, and if it can't be isolated."
A moment later, the Osiris had already sailed out of this channel, and just as Li Youde was about to give the order to leave here at full speed, he heard Anton's request.
"Wait a minute! I seem to have found something! ”
On Anton's monitor, there were strange unnatural points of light in the nearby planetary belts, and his intuition told him that it was definitely not a starry thing that was glowing, and after getting permission from Youde Lee, he pulled the trigger on the glowing place. The purple laser shot towards the planetary belt, and the shot undoubtedly frightened the residents and defenders of Liangzhu, who could see the dazzling laser beam through the transparent part of the satellite with the naked eye. But what really frightened them was the explosion that followed, and it wasn't the kind of reaction that should have been fired at the rock.
"There's something in the planetary belt!"
The chaos in the "Liangzhu" Anton didn't know, he shouted and fired two shots in a row at the planetary belt, and the Osiris also pointed the muzzle there, and after a few shots of naval guns, the Eagle Yang hiding in the planet was killed.
Li Youde stared at the monitor that enlarged the screen and exclaimed, "They have siege bazookas!" It's a special attack force on the colony satellites, don't let them get into range, help me contact the defenders here! ”
Hearing the special attack force, Anton's body trembled. The last time we heard of such a force was during the HER's all-encompassing expansion in the early days of the war. If they refuse to cooperate with a colonial satellite, HER will send a special attack force equipped to destroy the outer wall of the colonial satellite to attack that satellite. At that time, the Star Alliance did not have humanoid weapons, and it was difficult to intercept these Eagle Flyers with only fighter jets and warships. Once they get close to the satellite, the heavy rocket artillery will make openings in the colony satellite, and the air, residents, and vehicles near the openings will be sucked into the universe. The force ran out of ammo before leaving, and it would take a long time for the colony satellites to repair the damage they had wrought. As a result, many satellites surrendered under this pressure, and those who insisted on not surrendering were also attacked, and it was difficult for them to withstand a formal attack by HER in the future.
"You've all heard it, stop them with all your might!"
"Yes!!"
All members of Team Z realized that this was not a joke, unlike previous battles, this time the enemy target was not them, and they would take the initiative to avoid grappling, and Team Z had to act like a goalkeeper to prevent any opportunity for the enemy to break the goal.
"Natasha!"
"Got it!"
After Anton shouted, Natasha pressed the bullet launch button in the direction where the enemy plane appeared, and the dense barrage blew up the pitch-black space in front of people who couldn't open their eyes, which hindered HER's breakthrough and bought some reaction time for her own people.
Turning back to the HER side, HER Commander Heinrich, who was still fighting with the Covenant forces on the frontal battlefield, pinched his crooked beard and wondered why he hadn't waited for a response from the special attack force. According to the plan, the special attack force should have created chaos at this moment, and they can take advantage of the chaos to launch a wave of general attack.
"Captain! The captain of the special attack force is here! ”
"Connected!"
"Brigadier Colonel Heinrich, I'm the captain of the special attack force, I'm sorry we were discovered!"
"What? How to do it! ”
"I don't know why a battleship appeared in the attack area, and I wanted to wait for them to pass before I acted, but they spotted us! They also have humanoid weapons that can shoot lasers! ”
"It's the Osiris..."
"We ask for a retreat."
"No! The fighters on the front line are still waiting for you, even if there is only one of you, you should blow up the satellite for me! ”
"Yes!! For the Scales Country! ”
Heinrich snorted angrily, not long ago his boss Zhuge Daozi had to report if he found out about the movement of the Osiris, but he didn't expect to meet the Osiris at such a juncture.
"It's really strange why Colonel Michiko still encountered the Osiris and couldn't attack." Heinrich muttered to himself.
…
"And three special attack planes!"
"They're going to disperse, take the initiative to pester and don't let them go!"
The smoke and dust of the explosion cleared, and the special attack force of HER did not give up, shuttling through the barrage of the Osiris and continuing to kill towards Liangnagi. For now, Anton decided to bet his luck on the performance of the Ten Swords Body, and let Lin Ao and Edward use the high mobility of the Machine to deal with them. After the two flew off deck, Natasha fired three missiles in the direction of a special attack aircraft, and the HER pilot easily dodged it. Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Edward used the blind spot created by the explosion of the missile to kill him, and before he could react, he was killed by Edward with a single shot.
Lin Ao chased the two enemy planes alone, and when he saw the enemy fleeing in both directions, Lin Ao used his own characteristics of carrying many weapons to interfere with their movement. One of the enemy planes, which focused entirely on dodging Lin Ao's attacks, was sniped by Anton on the deck, while the other was chased and shot down by Lin Ao.
"Whew..."
Anton let go of his sweaty sighting device and took off his helmet to wipe the sweat from his neck.
"It's been a long time since I've fought against this kind of troops, and I'm so nervous."
…
The news of the total annihilation of the special attack force reached Heinrich's ears, and he angrily kicked the adjutant next to him, and ordered a retreat with a curse. Without a surprise attack by the special attack force, even if he can seize the M7 route, he will not be able to defend it.
"Damn, I've been deploying this battle for so long, and I've been disrupted by the nosy Osiris!"
He walked back and forth in the captain's room angrily, thinking that he should still tell Zhuge Daozi the news of the Osiris. If he didn't report it again, the Empire's intelligence department would announce the news, wouldn't he have one less chance to show himself in front of his superiors?
He contacted Zhuge Daozi, and Zhuge Daozi in the picture frowned, and he didn't seem to be in a good mood. Heinrich swallowed, he didn't know if what he was going to report was bad news or good news for Michiko.
"Colonel Zhuge Daozi! Hello! I'm Heinrich, and I've discovered the movement of the Osiris! They had just appeared near Liangzhu. ”
"What!? Did you fight each other? Show me the video! ”
Heinrich uneasily released the video, fearing that Michiko would criticize him for being easily killed by a few eagles. To his surprise, for some reason, Michiko smiled when she saw the appearance of the Ten Swords No. 2.
"I see, thank you for the information. Heinrich, I'm overseeing the final works of HAL, and I need you to keep an eye on the Osiris, but don't attack them! ”
"Huh? Don't attack them? ”
"Because I'm going to sink it myself! Well, if you do a good job, I'll reward you! ”
"Yes!"
At the end of the communication, Heinrich's hanging heart was relieved, although he did not know why the colonel gave the order not to let himself attack, but it was far easier to just track a ship than to fight.
