Chapter 101: Poked the hornet's nest
At base 2, Chu Jungui squatted in front of a remote-controlled turret for final adjustment. This is a real turret, on which instead of a mechanical keyboard is mounted, a tuned main cannon. Chu Jungui always felt that the firepower of the third-generation mechanical keyboard was still a little uninteresting, so he tried it with the chariot gun.
The name of the chariot cannon is conventional, and although the test subject feels that the caliber is not enough to be called a cannon, it is not good to go against everyone's common sense and call this thing a gun.
With the completion of the commissioning of the new turret, Chu Jungui stood up, stretched his body, suddenly felt something, and looked up at the sky.
In the ion storm layer, a behemoth flickered and flew in this direction.
Chu Jungui immediately ordered in the communication channel: "All on alert!
More than a dozen lancer warriors also noticed the abnormal movement, and rushed out of the base, occupying their respective positions, and waiting for the battle.
The behemoth kept decreasing in height, becoming clearer and clearer, and in the blink of an eye, it broke out of the storm layer and appeared over Base 2!
It was surrounded by electric fire, the surface of the ship was constantly bursting with explosive fire, and thick lightning bolts were constantly falling from the clouds, slamming at its hull.
This is a large landing ship, a special landing ship of the Federation!
At this moment, Chu Jungui even saw the mark of a cyan rose on the ship's hull at the moment when the lightning was shining!
In an instant, Chu Jungui had already analyzed and compared the landing ship. According to the data, it itself is re-strengthened and transformed on the basis of the Federation's most advanced type 1 planetary landing ship, not to mention the degree of advancement. At least it can remain intact after successfully passing through the ion storm layer, and less than ten of the dozens of attitude control engines have stalled, which is I don't know how many levels stronger than the original landing ship of Chu Jungui and Lin Xi.
As for what the cyan rose is, there is no way to know, and it is probably what kind of special force it is. After seeing the lancers, Chu Jungui always felt that the so-called special forces were just like that.
Since the enemy and friend have been determined, Chu Jungui will naturally not be polite, the accuracy, efficiency and coldness of the test subject are fully demonstrated at this moment, and all the turrets on the base are out of control and transferred to Chu Jungui's name. A full 70 turrets and gun turrets moved at the same time, aiming at the same point, quietly waiting for the landing ship.
No matter how thick the armor of the landing ship is, it is limited, and it cannot block the fire of the entire base.
There was also chaos inside the bridge of the landing ship. The sudden appearance of the base on the ground shocked the commander a little, but after seeing the scale of the base, he only ordered to transfer two secondary guns to aim, and then left this side and continued to command the repair and damage management.
Half of the equipment in the command module is still black, or flickering, and has not fully recovered from the effects of the ion storm, and there is still a murmur in the internal communication channel, and the only way to give orders and report can only be relied on the most primitive roar.
"Where's the base?"
"It's not ours, then it should be built by an agent from Sheng Tang's side. ”
"Haha, it's so small! They don't have supplies at all, I don't know how many supplies are made into shells. ”
"There are still a few rounds, haha!"
The flamboyant laughter was filled with the joy of the wolf seeing its prey, and several commanders in charge of the fire attack obviously did not take the Sheng Tang agent seriously, at least in their opinion, the junior agent could not be put on the stage.
Two secondary guns protruded from the hull and aimed at the base.
Chu Jungui's heart sank slightly, he knew very well the power and range of the naval guns, with the current distance and speed of the two sides, it seemed that he would have to take two rounds of artillery bombardment at the beginning before he could return fire. It's just that judging from the structure of the landing ship, it should have at least one main gun and eight secondary guns, and I don't understand why there are only two guns.
A second passed, and the landing continued to fall and approach, without firing a cannon.
As a result, they were left with only one chance to shell in advance. Subjects don't understand why they haven't fired yet, but that's a good thing.
On the landing ship, two officers were personally operating the secondary guns and were engrossed in aiming. They made a bet to see who could cut off the four corners of the base first.
The command hall was noisy, like a busy city. Reports of losses poured into the various commanders' terminals, making them realize that it was not easy to make a smooth landing, and that no one would pay attention to the small bet between two mid-ranking officers.
There is also thunder falling in the storm layer, and no one knows how much damage the next shot will cause. Although it has been predicted for a long time, it is not until it is actually faced that you can realize how terrifying the ion storm of Planet 4 really is. That's not at all what any report text can say.
The hull of the landing ship shook slightly, and the two secondary guns were fired almost simultaneously. This tremor was not perceptible to the landing ship, which was trembling violently.
Two shells left the muzzle of the secondary gun, dragging a long bare tail, and smashed accurately into the two corners of the base. The shells are all outside the base, and the corners are cut by the killing radius, so as to show the mastery of the gunnery.
The two officers watched the tracer bullets go away, admiring each other's gunnery skills.
One of them laughed and said, "Do you think they will fight back...... Damn!!What's that!"
The explosion flooded the two corners of the base, and then it was like stabbing a hornet's nest, and nearly 100 fires of all sizes lit up on the base, constantly flickering, and each flicker would spray out a dense black dot and blast towards the landing ship!
The advanced sight allowed the two officers to see that the black dots were all shells, and that the front had not yet arrived, and a group of them had come out again, and the rate of fire was surprisingly high.
They instantly felt that they had really stabbed a hornet's nest, no, the hornet's nest was not so serious. At least no hornet's nest can spray hornets out at a rate of two or two seconds.
Under the desperate gaze of the officers, the first regiment of shells had already hit the bow of the landing ship.
A mass of shells came first and one later, but almost all of them landed at the same point. Under the continuous bombardment, the landing ship's armor plates that resisted the ion storm could not withstand it, and were torn and blown apart, and then the explosion extended to the interior, constantly tearing the hull.
The second regiment of shells came in a blink of an eye, but the landing point was extended back by two meters, continuing to lengthen and deepen the deep crater caused by the previous regiment. The shells of the 3rd Regiment were further further extended by two meters, and so on from the 4th Regiment. By the time the 5th Artillery Regiment arrived, a terrifying wound several meters deep and more than ten meters long had already appeared in the bow of the landing ship!
Chu Jungui was engrossed, and a group of cannonballs bombarded the landing ship in an orderly manner, without any stagnation, like a thunder god battle axe, cutting the landing ship in half little by little.
The landing ship slowly flew over Base 2, and finally could not withstand the heavy artillery fire, and was divided into two sections in the center, burning and falling to the ground.
A bunch of large and small rescue pods ejected from the hull and fell to the ground.
"Follow me!" Chu Jungui jumped up, jumped off the base, stepped onto an improvised locomotive, and rushed to the landing ship crash site.
Several locomotives were only one line slower, keeping up at full speed.
The site of the crash of the landing ship is located just a few kilometers from the base. The remnants of the ship's hull exploded, scattering fragments everywhere. The rescue pods in the air opened their parachutes one by one and slowly fell. Only the largest bridge rescue pod succeeded in activating the brake engines and moved slowly, trying to move further.
