162. Atmospheric intrusion operations begin
5 September 2200 at 22:24 GMT
At the end of the joint operations meeting between the Buosiris and the Mycenaean reinforcement Agamemnon, Li Youde had just left the tactics room when he ran into Lieutenant Anton, who was unable to attend the meeting because of the maintenance of the airframe.
"How?" Anton asked.
"As previously discussed, we will take the lead in making a breakthrough, and then the Agamemnon will pin down the enemy, and we will seize the opportunity to recover all the humanoid weapons and fighters and break into the atmosphere."
"Is the Agamemnon in good shape? Are they sure they will get out after we leave? ”
"They said they had all the weapons they could bring, but there were only nine humanoid weapons."
"9 units? I remember saying 8 units. ”
Li Youde scratched his face and said: "The Agamemnon rescued two people on the way here, one was an unconscious bald girl, and the other was a black man in a HER uniform. He identified himself as Booker of the HER Mars Unit. Lieutenant Jones, now out of HER. He asked Mycenae to heal the maidens and take them in temporarily, in exchange for joining the battle, and his humanoid weapon I had never seen before. ”
Anton asked, "What if it's a spy for HER?" ”
Li Youde said: "I don't think so, not to mention that he seems to care about that girl, the girl is still in our hands, and now we can have a little more combat power." Twelve hours later, we started the atmospheric intrusion operation as planned, and according to computer calculations, we could land near the Himalayas, which would not be far from Lhasa. ”
"Yes!" Lieutenant Anton saluted.
…
10:28 GMT on September 6, 2200 RX2200.
The two warships of the colonial satellite Mycenae are heading towards Earth, and their maximum speed is expected to reach the outer atmosphere in an hour. Waiting for them there were two battleships of the 1st HER Legion, the Camera and the Leon.
From the combat effectiveness analysis:
In terms of warships, the Mycenaean side has two warships, the Osiris and the Camera, of which the Osiris is a warship of extraordinary specifications, and its combat effectiveness and the number of combat units carried are stronger than the enemy's two. HER's two warships are standard, but the nearby "HER Geosphere Encirclement Network" can be deployed to support them at any time.
In terms of humanoid weapons, the number of aircraft that can be dispatched on the Mycenaean side is 24, which is higher than the 20 on the HER side. But again, as long as HER reinforcements arrive, the advantage can be reversed at any time.
In terms of objectives, the HER side is more passive, capturing the exact position of the enemy ship and predicting the time of engagement, but cannot accurately know from which position the enemy will break into the atmosphere. The goal of the Mycenaean side was to bypass the geosphere encirclement network concentrated near the equator, trying to avoid a breakthrough into the atmosphere that would fight the enemy or shorten the duration of the battle.
It's like an unfair football game. HER had to hold the goal, while Mycenae had to score past the enemy's defenders.
At 12:03, the Osiris and Agamemnon were captured by the HER reconnaissance force in the geosphere network, and the captain of the Chimera, Lieutenant Commander Taglis, who obtained this information, judged that the enemy wanted to break through and land in Asia, and urgently turned the bow of the ship to intercept it.
"Lieutenant Colonel, the enemy has the Osiris as the vanguard, and the Star Alliance Standard Battleship is following behind!"
"The Osiris will definitely rush forward with force, we must break down the enemy's offensive and sharpness, drag down the enemy and wait for reinforcements, send fighter jets to harass, and the humanoid weapon troops are on standby!"
"Lieutenant Colonel, the enemy has also sent fighter jets to fight with our fighter formation!"
"Don't worry, the observers and helmsmen cheer up, the enemy will definitely fire the laser cannon first, pay attention to dodge! After the enemy's shelling, we must also shoot back immediately. ”
Taglis waited for the Osiris to fire the first shot, which was several minutes.
"Lieutenant Colonel, the enemy ship has come into our range, do you want to open fire?" The informant asked.
Taglis wondered, he didn't understand why the Osiris didn't fire their guns, their laser cannons had a longer range than their own ships, they should know that, so there was no reason not to take advantage of it, could it be that their main guns were broken? He decided to give it a try.
"Let the Leon fire first, and the enemy should immediately return fire and be ready to evade!"
"Yes!"
The Leon, to the left of the Kermera, fired a laser cannon at the enemy, who was clearly prepared to dodge, and the cannon was at best bruised.
Taglis's hand was raised high and ready to be put down, and the words in his mouth stopped abruptly halfway through: "The helmsman evades according to the enemy's course, and the main gun... Wait a minute! ”
The Osiris still didn't fire, and even the Covenant battleship that followed behind didn't react. What's going on? He did not believe that the main guns of both enemy battleships were broken.
He hesitated for a moment, and many people on the bridge looked at him, waiting for the moment when his hand fell. Just then, the Osiris opened fire.
"Dodge! Ready to fire! ”
Taglis's hand fell, and his helmsman swerved with great force, narrowly avoiding the shelling of the Osiris. Taglis immediately shouted, "Fire!" ”
The Khimera's main gun had long since been fully charged, and the gunner's thumb as he waited to press the firing button finally landed peacefully, and the scorching laser finally flew towards its target.
"Hit the left deck of the Osiris!"
Taglis's heart calmed down slightly, this time he bet right, although the damage caused by this cannon was not large, but if it was fired before, it would definitely be difficult to hit, and it would lose his morale, and it seemed that he still calmed down.
He heard an explosion.
"What's going on??" He asked, and as soon as he finished speaking, he saw a purple laser slash across the bridge, piercing the flank of his own battleship.
"It's... Get out of the way! ”
The helmsman of the Chimera scrambled back, but the hull was nevertheless hit by a continuous stream of lasers.
"Report! The x23 area is damaged! 2 people were injured! ”
"Report! The fifth water storage area is damaged! ”
"The 5th and 8th gun compartments were destroyed! The gunner is killed! ”
"This is White Eagle Anton. Gagarin's long-range sniping! ”
Taglis understood, no wonder the Osiris was in no hurry to fire, they were going to get into Anton's sniper range. The main gun of the Osiris is just a false shot, and the enemy will not move lightly because the gun misses, and it is more convenient for Anton to snipe at this time, and the HER battleship at this time cannot fight back because the main gun is cool. Taglis had to give the order to retreat, which gave the enemy the upper hand in terms of morale. He didn't forget about Anton's existence, but he didn't know what the maximum range of Anton with the updated laser rifle was, and he didn't expect that the Osiris would give up the range advantage of the main gun, and this round the Osiris took advantage of the intelligence.
"This tactic shows that they have been prepared for a long time, and it seems that our intelligence has leaked." Taglis thought to himself.
Seeing HER's battleship retreat, the Osiris fired a wave of missiles at the enemy array, forcing back the annoying group of fighters in front of it. The two teams of humanoid weapons A and B seized this opportunity to attack together, this time the Osiris made a bloody investment, using all the transport planes, let them take the humanoid weapons for a ride first to save the energy of the airframe, due to the absence of fighter harassment, the transport planes rampage forward like loose horses, and unloaded the humanoid weapons carried back when flying to the maximum safe distance. It only took a few minutes for the Osiris humanoid weapon to appear on the front line.
"The enemy's humanoid weapon has been killed!"
"Let our fighters go out too! The enemy's ranged attacks should not be able to continue! Rush back! ”
Taglis regrouped, and the two HER warships fired missiles in unison and advanced again, and 20 Eagle Flying Formations came out in batches to fight the "lifeguards" of the Osiris. If it weren't for the empty universe, the battlefield would be filled with angry roars and roars from both sides.
Lieutenant Anton, who was in charge of guarding the Osiris, looked at this big battle and sighed: "It's a pity that my laser rifle overheated in order to force back the enemy, otherwise so many enemies would shoot hard!" Z Squad! It's time for you to attack, don't embarrass me in a rare battle! I'll be watching from the back! ”
"Yes!!"
Lin'o, Edward, and Natasha replied in unison, and flew towards the front line with the Agamemnon's humanoid weapons unit.
