Chapter 13: Greenland Sea Deathmatch
It took a long time for Pullman to convince his daughter to go to a bomb shelter and other defensive sites, so he had no choice but to let her stay at the air base.
The defensive measures of the ochre plug road have been fully prepared, and the third-generation motorized infantry of the two squads is directly centered on the nuclear-powered cruiser of the PEN according to the plan, and the defense is carried out with the stronger performance and more suitable for special operations Assault 21-B.
Su Zhan didn't have the opportunity to take the motorized infantry, even if he already had the idea of going to battle, but he didn't have the conditions to provide it to him, so he could only take it with him in the rearmament, and watched the people led by Gero go out first.
However, only three Raid 21-Bs were dispatched first, and the remaining three were used to defend the homeland, so as to avoid the enemy directly choosing to attack the homeland and not being able to intercept it in time, that is, to hold the air base.
Kalian Yi stayed at the air base according to the battle plan, and he met Su Zhan under Gero's introduction, so the two of them can now be said to be moving around in the maintenance room at will, and they only need to attack immediately after receiving the order.
However, the two of them now had to settle down with Xiao Li, a little girl, and Pullman asked the two of them to do their best to take care of her, so it took them a long time to get her to sit quietly.
Su Zhan can finally have a good chat with Ka Lianyi, these two people can talk very well, Su Zhan provided a lot of advice on the combat plan, this kind of operation, Su Zhan remembers what he learned in the three months a year ago.
"Once the sea supremacy is lost, then the basic data of the ochre cloak is exposed to enemy firepower, and that diving carrier has no way to deal with it."
"Although it is possible to use electromagnetic interference field generation devices to interfere with hits, once the number is so large that the enemy chooses carpet bombing, then this method can be used."
Su Zhan listened to Karen talk about a bunch of things in the war, and he sighed very much at this man who survived the cruel war between PUR and ROEA in the past.
For example, when the man was asked if he was afraid of the fleet based on the three frigates of Sigorid, the reply he received was even more surprising.
He said: "Compared to the war agent of the Nordic Military Alliance, Sigorid, it is the Fipoulos Army, which has just experienced the civil war, that worries me a little, but not enough to make me afraid."
"Do you know that kind of life-and-death battle, which is a fight to the death with all possible means of attack, and it was even more tragic in the latter part of the war five years ago."
"Ever heard of the "Motorized Infantry Killer" and "Judgment of Death"?" Karen's face was a little solemn whenever he recalled that past, "I survived under the "Motorized Infantry Killer", and Geralt was almost burned to ashes by a shot from the "Judgment of Death", I still remember that terrifying scene at that time......"
Obviously, the two-year war between BANG and ROEA, the shadow of the war in which it made Karen a person who was extremely afraid of being called a "motorized infantry killer", and even now he didn't even have the courage to face the ROEA troops.
The famous defense battle of Beihua City, known as the "sickle of burning machinery", in which Gero and Kalianyi were participants, and it was the cruelty of this war that made ROEA an eternal nightmare for Kalianyi.
In addition to reminiscing about these, Su Zhan, in addition to gaining knowledge, still studied a lot of things that Kalian Yi might use in the upcoming battle, especially at the tactical level.
"Skyscanner D1 is a multi-purpose third-generation motorized infantry, which can be used to participate in all-weather operations in any terrain after being equipped with corresponding components, and can be said to be the backbone of the third-generation motorized infantry of Fipoulos."
"I don't know much about your Assault 21-B, but I want to warn you that the Fipoulos Army, which has experienced a civil war, is no worse than the wolves on the side of the East Asian People's Republic."
Even when Su Zhan got on the plane and prepared to fight as soon as Karen received it, he had to keep telling him useful information, since he couldn't fight, then he would leave the battle to others to complete it for himself.
Due to the existence of electromagnetic interference field generating devices, it is impossible to use monitoring equipment to capture the enemy's shadow, so you can only use long-distance monitors to watch, but this distance limit is only 20 kilometers.
The current fleet of the West Gorid Company is still more than 50 nautical miles away from the port of Ochre Sai Road, while the large nuclear-powered destroyer "Peace Gull" of Fipulos is almost in the range that can be seen by long-range monitors, and it is only more than 30 nautical miles away from Ochre Sai Road.
The development of optical stealth and thermal transfer armor has made it difficult to detect even within the range of surveillance, and even this warship of more than 10,000 tons is difficult to detect as long as it does not operate on a large scale.
This may be the first drive equipment war that began in the new period in the middle of the 22nd century, and the mode of this war is still the same: the struggle for air supremacy and sea supremacy is first, and the effective force of the struggle is the confrontation of motorized infantry.
The supremacy of the sea is not only a struggle on the surface, but also the underwater part, but the combat power of the underwater part of the ochre cloak is almost zero, and it is impossible to use the Tempest missile of the Deep Blue submersible to contend with the submarine carrier of Sigorid.
This means that this underwater is almost ceded to others, although the "Seagull" anti-submarine helicopter on PEN's nuclear-powered cruiser can play a certain role, but it is still not a good solution.
————
On July 20, AD2150, the nightmare of Greenland officially began.
At 2:00 a.m., the troops composed of two third-generation mobile infantry squads of the 12-machine Skyscanner D1 disarmed their optical stealth one after another, and a total of 172 missiles of various types launched attacks on the ochre blockade before the anti-aircraft weapons of the ochre blockage road were aimed.
Fortunately, even if PEN's nuclear-powered cruiser activated the response plan, nearly 30% of the missiles were shot down by the cruiser's automated fire control 40mm guns, 50% were intercepted by anti-aircraft rockets, and 15% were destroyed by the vigilant Assault 21-B and Battlerider MK4.
Only 5% of the attacks reached residential areas, but the worst thing was that there was a big fire, but there were no casualties, and even worse, it was a feint, which directly exposed the nuclear-powered cruiser of PEN, and the anti-aircraft fire and armament were all on display.
After watching the "fireworks" caused by this beautiful interception in the sky, Newberg realized that he had been fooled after only five minutes, and angrily slammed his fist on the table in the command room, and then said angrily: "This fireworks are beautiful enough, but it also makes us show our beautiful bodies to outsiders, which makes me feel ashamed!"
The six Strike 21-Bs were all on alert because of this, and the three planes that were originally on standby at the airbase also took off urgently, and all flew near the location of the cruiser.
"The captain said that since it has been exposed, then it can only be hard-hitting, and there is no point in playing dirty." Geralt laughed in the communication channel while skillfully controlling the Strike 21-B, and also completed a lot of difficult maneuvers in fighter mode, "Are you afraid?" ”
"Remember what we said before we first formed?" Karen understood Geralt very well, so he also said according to the routine, "If you forget, you won't be allowed to go back alive." ”
"Whoever is afraid of the puppy is the puppy."
It was just such a childlike joke, but the other four drivers took the belief that they would die and went into the next battle.
Shen Yihui and Cang were directly combatants, while Pullman was in charge of strategic command at the air base, and Newberg was in charge of tactical command.
Su Zhan didn't continue to take it in the air base, after pacifying Xiao Li, he thought about going to a place closer to PIN's cruiser, and with Shen Yihui's permission, he finally boarded the cruiser smoothly.
"Su Zhan, are you really planning to devote yourself to the next deathmatch?" Takuki Nayin, who was still on the icebreaker's side, asked Shinwoo to send him a message again, "If you really feel necessary, then we can help you fulfill your selfish desires, and at the cost..."
"It's necessary!"
"After all, you can't do anything without strength, can't you, have you figured it out?"
"You just let that motorized infantry, which I haven't seen glowing, protect the air base and the populated area, and not a single missile can let it pass, let me figure out a way from the front line."
He turned off the communication and walked all the way from the deck to the command room, using the ID given by Shen Yihui before, and Newberg also publicly confirmed it, so he was able to walk smoothly to the command room.
When Newberg saw this young man for the first time, he felt in his heart that Su Zhan was very different, and it was not enough to feel this alone, what really attracted him was Su Zhan's subtle eyes.
"Commissioner Su Zhan, you look rather helpless, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Do you have no other third-generation motorized infantry other than these six Strike 21-Bs?"
"What do you mean......"
————
While Newberg and Su Zhan were talking, the first confrontation on the frontal battlefield had already begun, and the two motorized infantry squads of the Philippous military were directly separated, and the first squad was obviously headed for the assault on the 21-B team.
This may be the first time that the newly developed third-generation motorized infantry is actually fighting each other, attacking 21-B and Skyscanner D1, the number of elites is also one-to-one, and it is really difficult to judge who will die.
According to the response plan, Assault 21-B team stopped the first Skyscanner D1 team, and the other team broke through the defense line and entered the port area to fight the Rider MK4 team.
Both sides of the sea are armed attacks in the missile category in fighter mode, but this kind of attack is endless, because it is difficult to hit, unless it is pulled to a very close distance and the missile attack is guided by a laser, it is difficult to hit, but once the distance is closer, there is no point in missile attack.
For example, one of the Skyscanner D1s wanted to do this, and the pilot's behavior was very young, especially for Geralt and Karenichi.
Kalian was responsible for inducing the Skyscanner D1 to enter the misunderstanding, and then when the laser just calibrated the Assault 21-B in the fighter mode of Kalianyi, he used the advantage of climbing to suddenly rush into the air, and under this sudden change, Geralt rushed over from the other side to do this deceleration action, and then switched to motorized infantry mode in just two or three seconds, using the speed under inertia to maintain the main thruster and start the main thruster again, and the composite sword and shield of the sharp part smashed directly into the back fuselage of the Skyscanner D1.
The Skyscanner D1, which had lost its speed, was unable to switch its transformation due to damage, and was once again attacked by the Assault 21-B that glided and fell in Motorized Infantry mode, and used the 30mm cannon in the head and the AP composite rifle in his hand to shoot the SkyScanner D1 in Rotary Fighter Mode.
Geralt's excellent play and Karenichi's cooperation successfully shot down the first Skyscanner D1 and had to force a landing, and the current situation is a situation of more fights and fewer fights.
However, not all of Fipoulos' Skyscanner D1 teams are novices, even if they are outnumbered, but the special captain's aircraft equipped with a "simplified version of the High Energy Destruction Rifle" (1) also caused damage to the Strike 21-B team, especially 15% of the left wing of the third aircraft was directly burned down.
"Note (1): The simplified version of the high-energy destruction rifle is a mass-produced modification based on the original high-energy destruction rifle, in order to save resources, so the weapon structure is not as complex and bulky as the original, and its power is reduced by nearly 40%, but it also has huge destructive power, and at the same time, the energy consumption is also reduced, not only that, but also the use of new materials made of new configuration cooling parts and systems, so that the weapon can achieve burst firing performance, after the miniaturization of the nuclear power reactor is realized, the limit number of consecutive firing is 3 times, If it is more than 3 times, there will be a supply gap, which will not only greatly reduce the weapon's output, but also affect the performance of the body, and after more than 6 times, the cooling material will overheat, resulting in a longer cooldown time and even damage."
Geralt probably knew more about the power of the High Destruction Rifle than the rest of the team, having been attacked by this weapon before, but he had survived.
Strike 21-B is not without this weapon, but it cannot achieve burst fire, but it can be used again by replacing cooling parts, and because it is cheaper, all six Strike 21-Bs are equipped with the "Portable High Energy Destruction Rifle (2)".
"Note (2): As a modified derivative of the original weapon, in order to make up for the shortcomings of the original non-continuous fire and long-term cooling, the weapons that appeared after many experiments only need to disassemble the cooling parts to achieve immediate fire, but the cooling parts are rarely carried by motorized infantry, so this weapon is mostly used for the defense of ships, and even if it is carried, there is generally only one cooling part that can be replaced. However, the flaw of this modification is that the power is only half of the original, but the advantage is that the size is smaller, you can choose either external or built-in, and PEN's Strike 21-B is built-in, and Strike 21-A can only be plug-in due to design flaws."
"That kind of weapon is the result of the destruction of the machine and the death of people, Geralt, what should we do?" Kalian Yi is now a little overwhelmed to deal with it, and her heart is starting to be a little anxious, "What Su Zhan said is really right......
"Distance yourself and lure them into the cruiser!" Geralt was engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy captain in motorized infantry mode, and he could still calmly command this tense situation, "Contact the captain, he will tell you what to do, and leave this special model to me!" ”
Karen received Geralt's order and led the remaining four planes to slowly retreat while firing with the AP Composite Rifle, luring * and * to release as cover.
And as expected, the Skyscanner D1, which was suppressed by performance, chased into the smoke except for the mech that was entangled with Geralt.
Geralt finally sighed as he watched the monitors retreat, and then looked at the enemy in front of him, his eyes finally sharpened, and he stared at Skyscanner D1 in front of him quite seriously.
"Next, I'll take care of it!"
