Chapter 22: The Desert Battle
At the same time, war broke out in the temperate deserts of the central part of the Northwest Continent.
The desert is the only way to Ganlin City, the capital of the Northwest Continent, and the 15th Armored Regiment of the 6th Robot Division decided to break through quickly and join the main force of the 6th Division in Ganlin City.
Once Ganlin City is controlled, the 6th Robot Division can either wave its troops south and form a pincer offensive with the 7th Division to capture the Divine Beast City and Green Spinning City in one fell swoop, or it can wave its division north to quell the uprising in the town and the countryside.
The rebels in Ganlin City are large, and the Northwest Continent Army does not want to ask the Space Force for support, so they can only send their ace troops.
The desert is vast, the dunes are undulating, and the golden sand waves are surging, and a wave of heat rises under the scorching sun. The light blue canopy, like a clean velvet, is trimmed with yellow gold.
Kimura Ihiro, the commander of the robotic armored regiment, loves the scenery, but he sees the mission as a stepping stone to promotion.
He sat in the command car and said calmly: "The rebels are extremely cunning, we need to move forward cautiously and send hypersonic fighters to patrol first." ”
His caution paid off, and the two hypersonic fighters lived up to expectations and spotted the enemy.
Underneath the flattened cone-like plane, revealing several telescopic laser turrets ambushed in the dunes, Kimura thought for a moment and decided not to startle the snake.
He had always wondered why the rebels had been able to bury several laser cannons in the desert without even noticing.
But unlike some proud commanders, Kimura commands rigorously, does not do unwarranted things, and rashly attacks may not be beneficial, but may expose his own strength.
After marching fifty kilometers from the laser turrets, Kimura decided to use the electromagnetic cannon to reap the lives of the laser turrets.
Further, the opponent will strike first, and the armored regiment will inevitably suffer battle damage. Besides, the fighters did not find any other rebels, so it must be safe here.
With only a few deafening sounds, dozens of electromagnetic shells shot out of the barrels of the space tanks, drawing graceful curves in the sky and hitting the opponent's turrets.
It didn't take long for Kimura to receive a signal from the fighter plane, and the opponent's laser turret was completely destroyed.
Kimura smiled and motioned for the troops to move on.
In the front, there is no obstruction force, the rebels' very small deployment of troops in the desert of the northwest continent has exposed their lack of troops and strength, the rebels will not be able to become a big weapon, as long as the army of the northwest continent mobilizes heavy troops to suppress it, it is only a matter of time before the rebellion is quelled.
Moments later, Kimura was shocked to receive the news of the plane's crash, and according to the last image sent by the plane, it seemed as if a UFO had flashed in the air and shot down both planes with lightning speed. The speed of his strikes was staggering, and Kimura could barely see how his opponent was attacking.
Kimura's expression gradually became solemn, thinking of the previous attack on Bright City, and he realized that the rebels were far more than what had been revealed so far.
It was as if there was a huge chasm between the other side and his own, and the enemy's fighters were beyond Kimura's reach.
Of course, that fighter should have a big limit, otherwise the other party could directly destroy him.
After losing a pair of important eyes, Kimura can only mobilize military satellites for reconnaissance, which is far less efficient than fighter planes, and is likely to be deceived by the enemy's quantum stealth system.
So he decided to send scouts to scout, and ten mechs floated into the air into the distance, their silvery-white luster shining in the scorching sun.
At the same time, Kimura also accelerated the pace of progress. Of course, out of the pride of the ace troops, he did not call for air force support from the division headquarters, but dropped a large number of microrobots in case the enemy sneaked attack.
However, the reality still disappointed him, the mech did not find the enemy, and the warframe had no choice but to set sail again, and finally found an oasis on the desert horizon.
It is truly a wonder of the world, with a clear dividing line on either side of the endless sea of golden sand on one side and a sea of rippling water and lush green on the other, with a small river winding in it and even hiding a moving village.
"There must be an enemy there!" Kimura wiped the sweat from his head and snorted coldly, "They are like cunning rats, they must be hiding in this oasis." ”
However, the mechs were unable to detect the enemy, not even their presence.
"Carry out fire coverage, focus on that village." Kimura was a little angry, but he had no choice but to hang his head and vent his anger on the sea of creatures in front of him.
The ten mechs quickly dispersed to form a battle formation, and the front arm of each mecha revealed a black hole in the launch nest, and a silver-white twin laser cannon bounced out of its back, and the five-meter-long body contained such a great power.
After a few seconds, the mechs began to attack in a neat manner, firing a steady stream of high-speed miniature missiles from their nests, and they swooped down on the oasis like leopards smelling their prey. The speed of the laser cannon is even faster, and as soon as it fires, it has already knocked down the prey, and the explosions sound one after another, and a world is crumbling under the powerful combat weapons of the Noodle Man, destroying this huge oasis with only 10 mechs and 1 minute.
The result of the attack was still disappointing to Kimura, who may not have any enemies at all; Perhaps the enemy has long been drowned in a rain of missiles/bullets and disappeared without a trace. In short, the mecha once again failed to do so.
With the mechs returning, Kimura sent another 10 mechs, convinced that the cunning rebels must be hiding in a stone cave like cobras, waiting for their prey to approach.
However, it is difficult to say who is the prey now, and Kimura believes that his strength is enough to repel all invading enemies.
However, the cruel truth hit Kimura in the head, and his mecha was inexplicably lost, as if in an instant, the mecha suffered an unprecedented blow and disappeared into this universe.
This battle was really evil, even if it was such an excellent commander as Kimura, he was on the verge of collapse, and he didn't even know what enemy he was facing, where the enemy was, and how many troops the enemy had.
Defeat after failure, continuous strange blows, the morale of the entire armored regiment continued to decline, as if there was a sense of powerlessness entangled in Kimura, and he almost doubted his life.
All he wanted now was to open Lv's head and see what was hidden there.
Suddenly, the ground shook wildly, as if the whole planet was trembling, and all units quickly went to the highest alert, staying in place, quietly waiting for the enemy to appear.
Kimura is almost going crazy, he seems to smell death, is the enemy finally going to destroy him?
In an instant, a group of heavy space tanks emerged from the ground, their massive bodies grinding through the sand, and the black barrels of the guns showed a fascinating and violent beauty.
Seeing this scene, Kimura sighed and relaxed, he was very familiar with the other party's heavy space tank, which was just a toy left over from the Fourth World War.
So, the corners of his mouth raised, and he pointed to the hologram and roared, "Crush them!" ”
The space tank group in the air took the lead in firing, and countless electromagnetic shells rained down, as if ploughing, directly overturning the heavy combat vehicles in the front row, and even the sand three meters below was thrown into the sky.
The opposing heavy tanks finally reacted, and they slowly rose into the air, ready to fire back.
At the same time, Kimura's space tanks fired again while tactically evasive, their laser secondary guns also illuminated terrifying points of light, and the scale structures on both sides of the vehicle flipped and fired countless miniature missiles/shells. All the attacks went straight to the enemy tanks, and Kimura had the upper hand completely.
