Chapter 13: Single-Plane Combat
"According to the data, hot wine can help you fight cold and hunger, so why not go with your companions?" Noelle asked Li Hao, who was looking at the data, "Do you hate getting along with people?" β
"Noelle, can you sleep first, there are some things I need to think about." Li Hao manually closed Noelle's window, and sighed in his heart, "After all, everyone will have something that can't be touched, right?" β
During the encounter in the snowfield, the pilot of the Blue Destiny Mobile Infantry, that is, Treed Chiton, seemed to know Li Hao quite well what he said, and this voice made Li Hao feel familiar.
Two years ago, Li Hao Huayce was just an ordinary young man, until the war came and destroyed everything, and his relatives, friends, and lovers also left him, and they all died in the bombing of PEN.
Everything about him should have been known by no one, and no one would deliberately know, and when Treid suddenly said something old, Li Hao knew that he had to face his past.
Even the fact that he was an SLM carrier was only recently known, and it was told to him by a person who only had a one-sided relationship, and now after learning a lot of information from Noelle, Li Hao gradually lost his feelings, just like Shicheng said at the time, don't let the shadow of the past and war swallow up your heart.
But now Li Hao is difficult to get out of, and the stimulation of his brain by the trial motorized infantry has further deepened the tendency of SLM carriers, and in the recent test, his SLM concentration is surprisingly high, which makes Shicheng panic, Li Hao may completely explode one day in the near future.
Perhaps, it is time for Li Hao to see a psychiatrist, he only looks like a normal soldier when facing danger and going to battle in motorized infantry.
"Li Hao, in view of your recent psychological state, you should adjust to the next battle before participating, otherwise it will cause us trouble." Shicheng gave a death order in the conference room, and Li Hao would never be allowed to act recklessly.
Because in the plan to attack the outpost of PUR a few days ago, Li Hao ignored the plan and directly used the MSV to ruthlessly destroy the stronghold against the naval guns, causing a fire, and all the dead trees in the snow field were ignited, and finally the location was directly exposed, so Shicheng had to make such a decision.
Li Hao didn't know what was wrong with him, he felt that his mind was blank when he was fighting, and even he was usually silent and very unpopular.
He had no choice but to stay in the ROEA stronghold, and after parking the trial motorized infantry, he ran to the bedroom to open the electronic board, Li Hao continued to communicate with Noelle, it seemed that only Noelle could communicate with him, but this communication was also quite stiff.
"Based on your recent state of mind and psychological testing, it is very common for you to have this mental illness as an SLM carrier, so I suggest that you talk to someone and say something that is happy for both parties." Noelle's display on the electronic board is basically Alph's icon, which has been the case since Li Hao's temperament changed drastically.
"Aren't you human?" Li Hao asked rhetorically, "No, you are a simulated personality." β
Noelle said the last sentence and went to sleep early: "You know it. β
Li Hao felt that it was really boring, so he simply returned to the trial motorized infantry, and sat directly in it to sleep, not wanting to pay attention to other things.
When he woke up, he realized what a big thing had happened, first of all, he would be in a high mountain, and he couldn't see the location of the ROEA stronghold at all.
"Current altitude: 1126 m, temperature 265K (minus 13 Β°C), wind speed: level 3, weather: sunny." Noelle happened to broadcast when Li Hao woke up, "Good morning, do you need to continue to perform the accumulation of combat data today?" β
"No, can you tell me where this is and what's going on?" Li Hao's consciousness was still a little vague and asked, "What about the lieutenant colonel of the ten cities, and what happened to the ROEA stronghold?" β
Half an hour later, Li Hao finally understood everything, and in just half a day, he had made so many big things. Because of the sudden avalanche and blizzard, all the periphery of Beifeng City was directly destroyed, and even the stronghold of ROEA was submerged, and then other stronghold troops of ROEA took the opportunity to attack Beifeng City, and the 43rd special support team also participated, but unfortunately the result was completely destroyed, but PUR also paid a heavy price, and only a very small number of troops remained.
After BANG kept the important equipment and data, it directly evacuated the city of North Wind, leaving the suffering residents there, that is, letting it go, and then ROEA's troops slowly gathered again to occupy the city of North Wind, but the troops were also very small, and they were still dealing with the facilities and houses damaged by the avalanche.
The whereabouts of the members of the No. 43 special support team are unknown, Li Hao can survive because of the automation of Noelle's artificial intelligence, which allows the trial to evacuate the stronghold and fly to this high place, and now Li Hao can see a white place as far as he can see.
However, Li Hao knew that Trede would never let him go, including the new aircraft, and he would definitely find a way to seize it, so for safety, he left the trial here in this high mountain, and let the ice and snow gradually cover the fuselage, but this is also good, it can be hidden.
Now he wants to go to Beifeng City alone to see, if the troops of Blue Destiny come back, they will definitely be able to occupy it back without much effort, although there is no need, but as long as Li Hao is found here, it is not impossible.
So Li Hao thought of a way, only to cover up his identity, walking on the road in a gray windbreaker, there are still more than ten kilometers away from reaching Beifeng City, I didn't expect the trial to bring him to such a close place in Beifeng City, although the distance is not long, but it still takes a long time for Li Hao to rely on walking, and he can't waste too much physical strength to do meaningless things.
Although the trial took him to the bottom of the mountain, it was still not feasible to go straight to the city of North Wind, and there were too many obstacles in between, so he had to take a detour.
In the evening in Beifeng City, after this avalanche and PUR's evacuation, the aborigines of Beifeng City held a grand celebration while not forgetting to repair their houses and facilities, and Li Hao also happened to catch up, but he didn't see Yang Yuan, if he was here, he might be able to know more about the whereabouts of the No. 43 Special Support Team.
Li Hao, who was alone, sat down and drank wine, watching the speeches and performances on the stage, the people around him seemed to be very enthusiastic, and he was embarrassed to refuse, so he had to accompany these people to drink.
A year and a half ago, Beifeng City had not been invaded, at that time it was a place to produce titanium APH, because the titanium ore source here was abundant, but after only a year after the occupation of BANG, the titanium ore was greatly reduced, and then it seems that because the mineral source was exhausted, or no new location could be found, the deployment of troops here was greatly reduced, and even today's withdrawal was premeditated, just by the way, the troops hiding in ROEA were cleaned up, which was not difficult for PU.
"Evacuate, everyone! PEN's troops are back, and it looks like they have a large mobile weapon! I don't know who interrupted the joyous atmosphere with a sudden shout.
"Noelle, get ready to start." Li Hao was very sure that what he said was true, because before coming to Beifeng City, he had secretly seen the traces left by the large drive equipment, so he was waiting for this moment, maybe he could go to PUR to ask about the whereabouts of the No. 43 special support team, but before that, he needed to defeat the steel monster that could be seen in the distance with the naked eye that was 30 meters long and 20 meters high, which looked like a turtle, and was equipped with a triple magnetic railgun and more than a dozen aircraft guns on its back, There are also quite a few HE missile launchports.
Li Hao didn't know why the residents of Beifeng City didn't evacuate, so he chose to take out their weapons to fight, all kinds of guns and rocket launchers, as well as a small number of HE missile launching vehicles slowly drove over, but in the face of this large drive equipment and 3 Wolf Raid Motorized Infantry, just three Raid Wolf Motorized Infantry is estimated to be enough for the combined forces of ROEA and North Wind City to fight, not to mention this steel monster.
He didn't know what this huge machine was, but according to the residents of North Wind City, this thing was the key to being able to capture this place in the first place, at that time, ROEA deployed a lot of troops here, coupled with the terrain that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, PEN attacked for more than two months without any effect, so he had to rely on multiple steel monsters of this type to attack it, just like a torrent of steel, unstoppable.
The siege machine, the Marauder, is so large that it can handle the attack of nearly 10 motorized infantry squads, which means that it can fight 50 motorized infantry in a single machine.
βE-MSV006οΌTrialγβ
"The Alph02 system is activated, the arms restrictions are lifted, the automation begins, and the action is carried out according to the predetermined pattern."
On the high mountain in the distance of Beifeng City, the snow piled up on the pitch-black motorized infantry slowly flowed down, this motorized infantry quickly rose into the air, the metal lines on its body glowed blue, the expansion wings on the back of the fuselage spread out and began to glide, and the thrusters had been fully activated to fly to Beifeng City.
Li Hao is not sure if he will be able to stop this large mobile device, and there are two high-heat weapons mounted on the back of the trial, the MSV-specific anti-ship gun, as well as the high-energy destruction rifle, and the melee weapon is the AP composite gun sword.
The judgment soon came to the coordinate location that Li Hao had predetermined before, and after he got on it, he began to prepare for the battle against this large motorized infantry.
"Noelle, prepare to activate the Vitz system and use the MSV to directly attack the ship's guns." Li Hao quickly gave an order, "Only these two weapons can hurt it!" β
"No, the scan has detected that the enemy is equipped with a large light-splitting fixed shield and a powerful magnetic field pulse generator, which will greatly resist the power of the plasma beam." Noelle suggested, "You can be the first to attack the enemy's Splitting Fixed Shield, but the enemy's coverage angle is 360Β°, and because it is equipped with a three-sided shield, you only need to destroy one side to get the attack angle." β
Li Hao was a little impatient at first, but he still agreed with Noelle's suggestion, according to the expected results in reality, even if the MSV fired all the naval guns, it would be blocked.
The Split Light Fixed Shield is specially developed by BANG to fight against high-energy plasma beam weapons, or to completely restrain this type of weapon, and the current Marauders simply don't eat physical and special attacks, just like a barrier, if you want to destroy any of the Split Light Fixed Shields.
This difficulty is too high, the more effective way is to use HE missiles for saturation strikes, but the trial is not equipped with missile weapons, although the flying wing has a mounted extended magnetic railgun, but for this thickness of E carbon sp02 armor, there is no lethality.
Another risky way is to get close enough to the Marauder, and at the same time avoid its attacks, and directly use the MSV to attack the ship's guns at close range, but the chance of success is 0, not that it will still be blocked by the Splitting Fixed Shield, that distance is impossible to get close to at all, so this risky approach is unrealistic.
"High thermal reaction detected, take shelter."
"According to the scans, the heat source is from the Marauder's flamethrowing device."
Li Hao was in a cold sweat, he didn't expect PEN to do so badly, he was planning to completely burn down the city, although it was a snowy day, but this level could not affect the fire that ignited at all.
The Judgment stayed in the air with its extended wings, flying around the marauders, but never made any offensive moves, but the ROEA troops attacked quite violently, but to no avail.
The high-energy destruction rifle was adjusted by Noelle according to Li Hao's requirements, even if it was the lowest output, the plasma beam fired was enough to penetrate the external armor of the wolf-type motorized infantry, and Li Hao's first thing to do was to stop the three wolf-type motorized infantry first, and then find a way to deal with the last big guy.
However, the marauder didn't seem to give him too much time to plan, and after the trial destroyed all the wolf-type mobile infantry, he immediately launched an attack on Li Hao, and more than a dozen aerial guns fired a large number of AP bullets.
Li Hao let the trial stop on the roof of a tall building, Noelle's assistance allowed Li Hao to save a lot of operations, and the time given to him was not bad, it was a joke to fight against this large mobile armor alone, although it was said that the destruction of the Split Light Fixed Shield was the key, but there was no way to get close at all.
At first, Li Hao planned to use the AP composite sword shield to convert to the blade mode to attack the shell part, but there was no chance to get close at all, and the marauder's firepower was too sufficient.
"Noelle, can you stop its actions with silence?" Li Hao was going to fight hard and asked Noelle tentatively, "Even if it's 30 seconds." β
"The limit time can't be too long, because there are too many systems inside this mobile armor, and there is a certain blocking of external photonic catalysts, so the limit time is only 20 seconds, do you need to try?"
Li Hao heard this information and planned to do it, but was quickly reminded by Noelle that doing so would consume a lot of energy, which would lead to an insufficient energy supply to the MSV's naval guns, and might not be able to destroy this motorized infantry.
However, these 20 seconds are enough for Li Hao, if he doesn't do it, more people will die, and he will also face danger.
"Dimensional system activation, silent position ready to start time: 10 seconds."
The exterior armor structure of the Judgment Mobile Infantry changed again, the pale blue glow on its body gradually changed to the rumored white, the expansion wings fully deployed, and a large number of photons overflowed, illuminating the city of Beifeng, which was dimly lit by a smoke screen that blocked the sun's rays.
Breaking directly into the range of the marauders, they were soon confronted with the fire of the dozen or so guns, but the silent stance also began to work, and the marauders' armament gradually stopped, and finally it was completely forbidden there.
The pitch-black, glowing motorized infantry stood on its back, first blasting a gap with the extended magnetic railgun at its waist, then standing a few meters away, using the telescopic hook of the foot (a fixed equipment for climbing terrain such as mountains or walls), and taking out the oversized weapon mounted on its back, the MSV-specific gun, to aim.
"With the current energy constraints, the total output is only 30% of the original output, so please be aware that even if you evacuate, there will only be one chance to advance." Noelle continued to remind Li Hao.
He pulled the trigger, and the muzzle of the MSV's special ship gun emitted a blue-purple glow, and a plasma beam shot directly into the gap that had just been blasted open with live ammunition, due to the smaller output, the reaction force on the body was also much smaller, and then the last energy did a propulsive ejection, and when gliding to the ground with a mounted flying wing, the midway dimension system gradually stopped, and all the brilliance on the fuselage was extinguished, which was a complete exhaustion of energy.
Although it landed safely, it still rolled and slid not far away due to inertia, and this motorized infantry, which had absorbed half of the power of the warehouse in the underground warehouse of Anji City, was completely exhausted in this operation, and if it weren't for the supplies of that time, I am afraid that it would not have lasted so long in this operation.
The Marauders who were attacked by the MSV's naval guns also exploded violently and fell directly into the street, after which the ROEA personnel would dispose of the wreckage, after all, this time it was not powerful enough to completely destroy it, but it was completely disabled.
Most of Beifeng City has been affected by the war, and many neighborhoods have been reduced to a sea of fire, especially the neighborhood where Li Hao is located has been completely reduced to ruins, and it is impossible to repair it, only reconstruction.
"Noelle." Li Hao didn't feel very happy, so he kept looking at the Noelle image in the display panel.
"Huh?" The little girl in the window showed a questioning expression, and then changed to a happy smile.
Li Hao looked at the girl's cheering appearance, although Noelle was just a simulated personality, and what was in front of him was only an image, he suddenly felt a sense of pleasure, and then said softly and gently: "Noelle, it's great to have you, thank you." β
Noelle was silent, turning back into Alph's iconography and spinning before he said, "Protecting and guiding new drivers is my duty to be created to do so." β
"You're so cute." Li Hao almost said what he thought in his heart, watching this display window gradually dim, this is a sign that the system is dormant, after all, the energy has basically run out, he left the trial and planned to take a look at the streets that have become ruins.
The rest of the No. 43 Special Support Team still had no news, Li Hao saw Yang Yuan, and also went to ask the survivors of the Marauders, but he didn't get any useful information and returned to the resting place.
He himself did not expect to be able to defeat an enemy of this magnitude on his own, or that it was only possible to do so because of the high performance of the Judgment Motorized Infantry, and with the help of Noelle's brilliant artificial intelligence system.
The trial motorized infantry was taken to the repair site that Yang Yuan said to be repaired, and the embarrassing thing was that the workers there didn't know how to repair it at all, not even how to replenish its energy, but only did some simple replacement of shell armor.
ββ An abandoned military base in the snowfields β
"Lieutenant Colonel Shicheng, don't we really plan to go back, there's nothing in this ruin." Shahril complained in the newsletter, "Although it is also a base left over from the past, it is too different from the one encountered in the desert. β
"Yes, indeed." Su Yi also agreed, after all, the last time he encountered the Judgment Mobile Infantry in the desert, and this abandoned base in the snow field had nothing of value.
Shicheng also felt that he was almost going back, and it was not completely without gain, he could now be sure that the things in this base might have been taken away by the people of PU earlier, maybe the same motorized infantry as Li Hao's trial was also taken away, this is a bad thing, his intuition is very accurate, it was indeed taken away.
"What model of motorized infantry will be taken away?" Shicheng recalled the information given by Li Hao last time, "The shadow sky is MSV003, the conviction is 004, and the trial is 006, is it 005 this time, or 007?" β
He quickly dispelled this idea and stopped thinking about it, this military base was originally discovered and reported by Yang Yuan's troops, but he didn't expect it to be a step too late, if there was really a motorized infantry like the trial was taken away, it might seriously affect the future battle situation.
Shahrir was the first to return to the stronghold, but what he saw was a white expanse of snow, Leng looked at it without moving, obviously frightened, and the ten cities came to see it only to know that it was caused by an avalanche, and it was very serious, and even the North Wind City was affected a lot.
"Damn, did those guys move first, not waiting for us to come back?" Ten Cities scolded in the communication, "Or do you see any opportunity for them to execute it in advance?" β
Later, Lille's inspection report confirmed that this was not thought to be made, but happened naturally, so it is very likely that they not only did not attack Beifeng City, but also died here, which made Shicheng and others have to rush to Beifeng City quickly, and the assault landing ships were also buried underneath, and the four motorized infantry only drove their thrusters to hurry.
In the research institute of Huayun City, the occupied city of PEN, a motorized infantry painted in black and red is parked there, and it has been repaired and modified by many robotic arms.
"E-MSV008, Transient."
"The installer is complete, and the Alph02 system is launched."
The metal lines on the black-red motorized infantry gradually glowed, it was a red light, but after that, the armor was deformed, including the cracks in the armor, which gradually emitted a white glow, a change that surprised researchers.
They thought they had picked up a big bargain and looked at it like a treasure, but what awaited them next was a disaster, this motorized infantry actually acted automatically, and the wire-controlled combat unit on the shoulder part rotated 180 degrees, directly aimed at the people in the stand, and the next thing to usher in was the shelling.
There was a violent explosion in this research institute, and countless barrages shot from the research institute to the sky, and finally a purple-red plasma beam rushed into the sky, and then this black-red machine shadow flew quickly into the distance with a white light, and disappeared into the eyes of witnesses in Huayun City.
"You don't deserve to control me." The system window on the transient motorized infantry also rotates the Alph icon, which is also controlled by a simulated personality similar to Noelle, but I don't know what its name is, but I only know that maybe it has a very bad personality and a short temper.
