Chapter 85: Night Attack
It didn't take long for the squadron to destroy all the enemy's Mosquito fighters at the cost of zero losses.
And Xin Mei's snakeskin maneuver deceived the opponent with a large wave of missiles, which is naturally the most brilliant stroke of this combat effectiveness.
The Covenant pilots who parachuted were quickly hunted down by ground forces.
Several bombers at high altitude also had no hope of escaping, and although Captain Gardel ordered the bomb to be dropped and dived in exchange for airspeed, after ten minutes of pursuit, they were shot down by several Pelican fighters.
In this way, the 29th Squadron ushered in their first brilliant victory.
……
While the attention of both sides was focused on this airspace, Xu Weiyang and Alexei had already landed in a camp deep in the jungle.
The makeshift camp was where the special operations team was stationed, and in an open field marked with smoke grenades, the two quickly jumped off the ship and covered up their tracks.
After a while, some soldiers of the special operations team carried several wounded people on stretchers to the spacecraft.
After sending off the wounded soldiers, the two of them got together with the former enemy officer who had fought at the front station to learn about the situation.
Now this area is only 20 kilometers from the enemy's main fortress, so to speak, right under his nose. However, due to the topography and weather, the Covenant has not spotted them for some time.
Of course, once here, they no longer had any planes available, so they had to break through with infantry.
After the former enemy officer gave a briefing, Alexei muttered a few words to him, and then asked him and some lightly wounded soldiers to stand by in the rear, while Alexei and Xu Weiyang got together with a group of soldiers in good physical and mental condition to explain the battle plan this time.
While Alexei explained the plan, Xu Weiyang glanced at the night sky.
Far away in the sky is a huge pyramid, and the white light of the stars that flicker in the dark night together forms the outline of the pyramid.
And directly above this pyramid is one of the ancient battleships of the Star Alliance, the Archon.
The battleship was located at an altitude of 20 km, pulled by several gravitational beams emitted by the pyramids, so it was able to remain stationary. Around it were eight newer cruisers, 25 destroyers, 25 frigates.
Just judging by the size of the fleet, it is already quite terrifying.
You must know that the space fleet that Z, R, and M can put together is less than half of this level. And they were all small-tonnage warships.
Because of this, the Star Covenant firmly pinned humanity to the earth with its strong tonnage advantage......
However, these ships are relatively old and do not have energy shields. If the rebels' fighter jets or missiles can break through the air defense circle formed by these ships, they can still cause some damage.
Of course, under intensive anti-aircraft fire, these are undoubtedly empty words.
Therefore, for the suppression of humanity, these old Star Alliance warships are enough.
Admiral Kapua, the commander of the fleet, had been sitting in the bridge command room of the "Consul", listening to the information coming from the fortress while watching the dispatch information on the main control screen.
He knew from the communications that today's sortie had failed, and that a stupid fighter squadron would be teased by an old fighter in a dogfight.
Fortunately, the bomber squadron successfully completed the task: according to the fortress reports, they destroyed at least 50 armored detachments, including 50 main battle tanks.
In this way, he could calculate with his fingers that the regular forces of the rebels had already existed in name only.
Xu Weiyang just looked at the group of warships in the sky from a distance, thinking about any way to poke them down.
But after thinking about it for a while, I felt that it was whimsical, and I still concentrated on returning to the mission.
"Let's go, it's up to you later." Alexei patted her on the shoulder from the side, and walked deeper into the jungle.
"I hope the widow will keep some meat for us tonight." A soldier teased as he walked by.
"Don't worry! The men are handed over to the widows to deal with, and the women are handed over to us to deal with, and the men and women are matched to do the work without getting tired. "A man carrying a rocket from the side to keep up with the advancing team.
"Hahaha!! What kind of sand sculpture logic, what should I do if there is no woman on the other side. The crowd laughed.
"You're enough...... Xu Weiyang smiled helplessly, shrugged his shoulders, and then followed a little nervously.
After all, she had planned operations before, and this was the first time she had participated in a front-line battle.
Their target tonight is a nuclear power plant not far from the fortress, and Alexei has hacking software and programming explosives with him, which can accelerate the fission reaction at any time after they evacuate and detonate the nuclear power plant.
If the detonation is unsuccessful, the programmed explosives will also detonate, paralyzing the nuclear power plant and the entire fortress.
A group of people followed the path they had opened up and headed deeper into the jungle.
Following these 30 or so people all the way, Xu Weiyang found that they had big hearts, and they talked and laughed all the way.
Not only that, but she can also see the difference between the equipment of special operations units and the equipment of ordinary individual soldiers.
This group of people not only has a different way of traveling and communicating than regular infantry, but also sets traps or does some reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance work every time they cross a distance.
In terms of the way to open the road and the weapons used, it can also be seen that these guys should be one in a hundred warriors.
The alien weapons and armor they use, the rebels' outfits have basically been eliminated by them, and they don't look down on them at all.
Another feature is that one or two people will use M-made weapons, one or two people will use R-made weapons, and one or two people will use Z-made weapons. The advantage of this is that not a single bullet is wasted.
What's even more terrifying is that unlike the functional branches of the regular army, everyone here is a medical expert, a herbalist expert, an anti-tank expert, an intelligence expert, and a survival expert......
It is precisely because of the training of various battles that this unit has been fiercely combative, and the war has maintained an excellent record of zero deaths until now.
It is precisely for this reason that they are somewhat accustomed to this operation, and regard it as just another operation behind enemy lines.
But after everyone talked and laughed for a while, Alexei suddenly frowned, he sensed that something was wrong.
It didn't take long for everyone to quiet down, and some immediately squatted down and looked around vigilantly.
Everyone is 300% alert at this time, and they can sense the danger hidden deep in the jungle.
But when everything was quiet, there was no sound in the woods except for the howling of wolves and the chirping of birds.
Alexei squatted in place and waited for a while, and finally decided to divide into two teams, one in front of the other. The two teams are about 200 meters apart.
The obvious purpose of this is that in the event that one team is exposed and ambushed, the other team can remain hidden and carry out a counter-ambush.
Although Xu Weiyang didn't notice anything abnormal, after seeing everyone's expressions become grim, she also began to hold her breath.
However, a few minutes after the front team walked out, Xu Weiyang felt a sudden chill around him!
