CHAPTER 195: SHOW TIME 3
(Ask for recommendations, ask for favorites.) )
Taking advantage of the respite caused by the electromagnetic interference bomb, the Grim Reaper recalled the damaged 17 fighters, and the maintenance team kept repairing them, and the space pilots also replaced the spare fighters and took off again to continue the operation.
Space pilots generally have two warplanes, an attack hurricane and a transport Tornado.
The Tornado is a little slower, but it has a strong defense, and its attack power is decent when the fire is full.
"Captain, the Marines are asking to join the fight." The deputy captain wolf girl leaned over to Mu Chen's side and spoke.
This group of marines and space airborne troops obviously couldn't sit still, watching the space flight team fight bravely to kill the enemy, one by one, they couldn't resist the deep desire to fight, even if they were carrying a space jetpack, they wanted to join this battle.
"You tell these bastards, don't even think about it! Lao Tzu hasn't gotten to the point where he wants to send the Marines to the space battlefield, are these bastards in the water? Do you want to go hand-to-hand combat with pirate fighters? Mu Chen immediately rejected the request.
"Captain, the marines are also equipped with a lot of large-caliber laser sniper weapons, which can effectively pose a certain threat to the pirate fighters......" The wolf girl still stubbornly said, including her, everyone on the battleship hopes to help Mu Chen reduce some of the burden, even if it is only some insignificant help.
From the very beginning of this battle, the captain was almost alone dragging everyone, the co-pilot was not capable enough to cope with this level of combat, the weapons officer was not capable of ensuring shooting accuracy in extreme flight, and if it weren't for the Grim Reaper, which attracted the vast majority of the attacks for them, it would be questionable whether half of the 20 space pilots would have survived.
Many people have a strange feeling that they seem to have dragged down the entire battleship and become the closest group of spectators to the battlefield, everyone in the wheelhouse feels that they are dispensable, even if they don't have themselves, it is estimated that the captain can also ensure the combat effectiveness of the battleship, maybe their own existence drags down the captain.
The only thing many people can do is to endure and not vomit, so as not to affect the mood of Lord Death, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to these above-eyed crew members.
The marines and airborne troops who are responsible for ground operations and airborne operations are also very anxious, the current situation of the Reaper is extremely dangerous, and the captain has tried his best to ensure that the battleship is not mortally damaged, but the enemy's fierce artillery fire threatens them all the time, and the shield of the Reaper causes the hull to shake violently every time it is hit, which reminds everyone that the pirate fleet is not so easy to deal with.
It's not that the Marines and Airborne Forces don't know that their class is not suitable for space combat, but they are even more reluctant to sit idly by, even if they can only provide small help, and they are willing to pay with their lives to tell Lord Death, "You are not fighting alone." ”
Mu Chen also understood the mood of these people, thought about it and said: "No, I can't let them sacrifice in vain, let my men fight with the enemy, this is a shame for me!" ”
"Captain, a total of 350 people from the Space Airborne Force and the Space Marine Force, all of whom are fully equipped, are willing to live and die with the Death Battleship!" The wolf girl said firmly, this is the first time she has disobeyed Mu Chen's order, but even so, she can still help Mu Chen.
"Bastard! Come on, take the deputy captain down and lock him up! Mu Chen roared angrily.
There was silence in the wheelhouse of the "......", everyone bowed their heads and stood solemnly, but no one carried out the captain's order.
"What? Do you want to rebel? Mu Chen said angrily, the killing intent all over his body emanated without restraint, and the temperature in the cab dropped by several degrees.
"Ship, Captain...... We are not afraid of death! The wolf girl stammered a little, it was the first time she saw Mu Chen's appearance when she was really angry, this kind of killing intent like a substance made her intelligent prosthetics tremble, but she still gritted her teeth and said firmly.
"......" Mu Chen looked at her silently, he couldn't believe that this woman would take the lead in disobeying his orders, you must know that the wolf girl almost never disobeyed him, and she has always been the most obedient one.
"Captain, we are not afraid of death! Even if our time is up this time, we hope to die fighting the enemy, rather than just sitting and watching. The weapons officer also straightened up and said earnestly, tears in his eyes at some point.
In this battle, he could hardly help, and he couldn't even interject a word to make suggestions on the dazzling battlefield, and he felt a deep sense of powerlessness in the face of a huge number of enemies and the rapidly changing battle situation.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with the captain holding the power alone, he had nothing to say about handing over control of the weapon system, who made himself inferior to the captain? Counting on your own lame level of shooting is the most irresponsible thing to do with a battleship.
But that doesn't mean he's willing to be a spectator and watch, watching Lord Death fight with all his might, watching the captain attack all the time, he also wants to participate in this battle, even if he is put on a personal jet backpack, with explosives and pirate fighters, it is better than being powerless now.
"Captain, the 501 crew members of the Grim Reaper, we are willing to live and die with the captain!" Everyone in the cab said in unison.
"The 501 crew members of the Grim Reaper are willing to live and die with the captain!" The Marines gathered outside the cab also roared in unison.
Then the entire battleship uttered the same voice: "May I live and die with the captain!" ”
"A bunch of idiots! Look back and see how Lao Tzu cleaned you up! Mu Chen said with a cold face.
"......" Everyone raised their heads and quietly waited for the captain's order, unwavering in the face of the threat of Lord Death, even if their calves were cramping in fear.
"Pass my orders! The drone swarm is all sorted, manually operated by all civilian staff, to join the fight. ”
"The Marines change the exoskeleton of the space combat machine, enter the battleship crew firing position, and fire freely!"
"The space airborne troops enter the airborne compartment and are ready for broadside combat at any time!"
"Chief of Internal Affairs, bring me another bag of beef jerky, these bastards are mad at me!" Mu Chen said to Li Wenjing with a cold face.
"Yes! Mission completion guaranteed! All the crew members said in unison.
Li Wenjing immediately took out a pack of beef jerky from his arms and stuffed it into Mu Chen's arms, and then found a drone control handle and got busy, fortunately, this thing knows how to use it, otherwise he can't help if he wants to.
The place on the Grim Reaper
Everyone got busy, and even the cooking squad in charge of food and drink took the handle to control the drone and joined the fight.
The Marines put on space mechanical exoskeletons and carried large-caliber laser sniper weapons into individual firing positions, and then quickly attacked.
The most excited is the space airborne troops, although the captain told them to wait patiently, but the attitude of Lord Death is clear to everyone, and it must not be long before they can be engaged in the most fierce space engagement.
That's right, none of these people are afraid of death, they are more afraid of their own worthlessness than death, even if it is just to consume a trace of the energy shield of the pirate fighter, it is better than sitting in the cabin and watching the captain busy alone.
The group of pirate fighters behind the Reaper immediately felt the pressure double, and the black-painted Reaper battleship suddenly turned around and rushed towards them, and the frequency of attacks increased by several notches.
"Didn't the intelligence say that the Reaper Battleship only had one particle beam main cannon and eight laser cannons? How do you do these hundreds of lasers firing at the same time? A pirate captain asked his angry subordinates.
In just one attack, more than 10 pirate fighters were shot down, and the pirate fighters that received electromagnetic interference were simply unable to launch an effective attack on the Grim Reaper.
[The shield energy of the Reaper battleship is restored to 65%, and it is expected to recover all of them in 15 minutes.] 】
Due to the enemy's loss of automatic aiming and shooting ability, the accuracy of shooting has decreased a lot, and the speed of shield energy recovery has exceeded the consumption rate, Mu Chen's heart is suddenly much more steady.
However, the dodge action cannot be stopped for a moment, and there are 250 marines wearing space mechanical exoskeletons on the outside of the battleship, and if the shield is hit by the enemy's particle beam weapon, the shock wave generated can kill many marines.
In order to minimize the danger of the crew, Mu Chen had to do his best to avoid the enemy's attack, and at the same time, he also had to create opportunities for the marines to attack, and the difficulty of piloting quickly increased.
"Made, these bastards, you know how to make trouble for Lao Tzu! You've got to get a good job of training these guys! The wolf girl is also not cleaned up, and she actually took the lead in rebellion, and when the task is over, she must beat her ass well, so that she can have a long memory! Mu Chen said angrily.
It's not that he doesn't understand the crew's desire to help, but to be honest, this approach doesn't provide much help, but instead makes Mu Chen feel like a rat trap and a restraint.
But he finally agreed to this very unreasonable request, after all, these warriors are not robots, they have their own persistence and dignity, if they feel that their existence is dispensable, or even not able to provide any help to the battleship at all, then for these proud warriors, it will be the most severe blow, and it is very likely that they will never recover.
Although Mu Chen is the supreme commander of this A-class frigate of the Reaper, in principle, all crew members must unconditionally obey any of his decisions, but Mu Chen cannot ignore the requests of the crew, after all, they are also members of the battleship, and they also have the desire to contribute their own value, not to mention that their ultimate goal is to be able to play their own role.
"Made, a bunch of idiots, isn't it good to sit back and wait for victory? You have to rush to the front line to die, these guys who don't clean up! Mu Chen scolded helplessly, but the corners of his mouth slightly hooked an imperceptible arc.
