Chapter 24: The Battle of Odessa (1)

With the meeting over, Chahoulin returned to his high-end apartment. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info At this moment, Qiu Yue also rushed over from the Meteor Research Institute, and made a hearty dinner for himself.

"The Battle of Odessa of the Federation Army is about to begin, and the time set is exactly the same as the original history." After Xia Houlin took a bite of the barbecue in front of him, he looked up at Qiu Yue. I really didn't expect that history would quietly embark on the original trajectory again.

"Although the time is the same, the military forces of the Federation Army and the Zeon Army are completely different, and both sides already have more powerful weapons. You have to be very careful with this attack, a large-scale MS melee, even if it is an ace driver, there is a possibility of death. Qiu Yu looked at Xia Houlin, who continued to enjoy dinner, and reminded, because any accident can happen on the battlefield.

"I know, I don't want to die in this world. By the way, about the development of large electromagnetic railguns, can it really be like what Lieutenant General Diamm said? "Xiahou Lin remembered that Qiu Yue had said before that kind of movable fortress weapon would take a while to form.

But in the previous meeting, judging from the tone of Lieutenant General Diam. It's as if this weapon should be able to be put into real combat.

"Almost, the construction of weapons can actually be advanced. It's just that in actual combat, what kind of power and failure can occur, these are not in my prediction. "Akizuki after receiving an order from the military top brass to attack the fortress weapons. Began to order research institutes and factories to start working overtime to produce these weapons.

However, if a large electromagnetic railgun is sent to test it before the operation begins, I am afraid that it will be too late.

Therefore, the current federal forces can only catch ducks on the shelves and test the efficacy of new weapons directly in battle.

"That's not good news!" Xia Houlin said to Qiu Yue, it is true that if the large electromagnetic railgun cannot be used, then the plan made before will be in vain.

"You need a large, dedicated backpack system that you can't afford to put into battle in a short period of time. This battle is on its own. When Qiu Yue said this, there was a slight disappointment in her tone. After all, the combination of the Dream Demon Gundam and the dedicated backpack system can bring out the combat effectiveness of this machine to the extreme.

"I know, I don't know if I'll meet Zeon's latest mech in this battle. I believe the captive bodies brought back this time are enough for your research institute to study, right? Xia Houlin smiled and diverted the topic and began to talk about other things.

"We are analyzing the above technologies for those bodies, and I believe it will help improve the technology in MS." Qiu Yue answered Xia Houlin's question seriously, and at this time, the phone from the research institute rang at this time.

…….

At 0:00 on November 6, UC0079, the order to leave was issued. The Federation task force, which had already been assembled, drove out of the fortress of Luna-2 and galloped towards its destination, geosynchronous orbit, at maximum speed.

At the same time, on the Earth side, a large number of troops of the Federal Army began to advance from both Europe and Asia towards Odessa, Zeon's stronghold in the Ukrainian region, the largest stronghold on Earth.

At this point, the great counteroffensive of the Union Army officially began, and the first major battle in the latter part of the one-year war officially began.

In fact, the top brass of the Federal Army knew very well that this combat operation could not avoid being discovered by the Zeon side. After all, this time the Federation Force has gathered two-thirds of the current space fleet's strength, and there are more than a hundred combat ships of various kinds.

With a force of this magnitude, it is already the largest force that the Federation Army can gather in the universe after the space fleet was defeated by the Zeon MS forces.

The Zeon Scouts responsible for monitoring Luna 2 must have reported the situation to Solomon Fortress by now, as the Federation Army has gathered such a large number of troops.

The Duchy of Zeon will definitely not sit idly by and watch such a large force attack by the Federation. It will also make the other party pay great attention to it and send a fleet to meet it.

Because for quite some time, the Zeon Space Fleet is trying to find an opportunity to wipe out the remnants of the Federation fleet.

The commander of the Luna-2 looked at the fleet that was gradually moving away from the fortress, and he was very nervous at the moment. Because the success or failure of this battle is directly related to the direction of the balance of victory and defeat between the Federation and Zeon in the future.

Since the Principality of Zeon defeated the Federation Space Fleet, it has completely suppressed its opponents on Earth. So a patrol fleet was sent to patrol the Earth's orbit to prevent a large number of Federation Army reinforcements from coming into space.

Therefore, if the Federation forces want to complete the battle deployment this time, they must defeat the Zeon patrol fleet in Earth's orbit. And after the other party is attacked, it will definitely call for reinforcements, so that the battle will inevitably begin.

It's a pity that now the strength of the Luna-2 base is insufficient, and it is impossible to mass-produce warships. Without the transportation and supply of large ships, the combat effectiveness of the MS troops will be greatly weakened.

Therefore, if this force of the Federation Army is severely damaged or wiped out by the Zeon Army in the next battle, it will undoubtedly be a very serious matter for the Federation Army in the universe.

However, now that the Battle of Odessa has begun, there is no turning back from the bow, and the Federation must win this battle at any cost.

UC0079 at 19 o'clock on November 6, after more than ten hours of continuous sailing. The Federal Task Force arrived in geosynchronous orbit on time.

The fleet's vanguard reconnaissance force has already engaged in an exchange of fire with the Zeon patrol fleet. The other party had already lined up here, waiting for the arrival of the federal army.

However, the Zeon patrol fleet was in a defensive formation, and it was clear that these guys were waiting for reinforcements to arrive, so delaying time was their primary goal.

However, the Federation Army would not let these guys get their wish, so the task force reacted immediately.

On the New York, the flagship of the task force, Vice Admiral Diam, the Union Army, who was in charge of commanding the battle, looked at the battle report ahead. Immediately asked the signal soldiers to connect the communication with the surrounding warships, and then the general stood up into the screen and said loudly: "Fellow soldiers of the Federation Army, our great counterattack against the brutal Duchy of Zeon has now begun. Now I order all MS units to attack at once, destroy the Zeon fleet in front as quickly as possible, and start the battle of Odessa. ”

As Vice Admiral Diamm's order was given, the MS troops in the Federation transport ships left the mothership one after another, and rushed in groups in the direction of the fierce battle ahead.

Piloting the fully armed Dream Demon Gundam, Xia Houlin was the first to fly away from his mothership, the Arizona. Then, in the middle of the screen, he said to his subordinates around him: "Now all the reloaded Jiegang targets the enemy's battleship, and after entering the effective combat distance, sink it as quickly as possible." The other units are responsible for covering the assault force, remembering to fight quickly. ”

"Understood."

"Got it!"

"Don't worry, Captain!"

"At the end of this battle, the captain wants to treat us to a good drink!"

"No problem, as long as I come back alive, I will ask all the people in the brigade to have a good drink." Xia Houlin smiled and answered his subordinates' requests, and then the uneven shouts of those guys came from the screen.

For these words, Xia Houlin did not feel bored but felt affectionate. These of the Federal Army

At this moment, the battlefield was already exploding, and the missiles and beams were in space, showing the flames of death. From time to time, an MS or a space fighter is blown up and turned into an exploding spark.

The Dream Demon Gundam, accelerated by the tactical backpack, has already broken through the defense line of the Zeon troops at excessive speed. At this time, a Zeon MS-09R-2 Giant Demon II., carrying a rocket launcher, blocked the road ahead.

Xia Houlin piloted the Dream Demon Gundam, and while avoiding the incoming rockets at high speed, he used the beam gun to directly hit the MS-09R-2 Magnum II., which exploded in an instant.

At this time, on the side of Xiahoulin, an MS-14 warrior was already using an electromagnetic pulse gun to shoot, and quickly approached.

Just as Xiahou Lin was controlling the Dream Demon Gundam to dodge, he was about to use a missile to destroy the approaching MS-14 Warrior, when a beam of light suddenly shot out in the distance, directly piercing the body of the MS.

It turned out to be an attack from a Jie Gang from the Luna 2 fleet, albeit at a relatively long distance. But the driver's design skills are obviously very good.
