Chapter 28: The Battle of Odessa (5)
The Cairo base in North Africa, which was originally the largest military base of the Federal Army in North Africa. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 However, half a year ago, due to the airborne battle of the Duchy of Zeon, this place was quickly captured.
Subsequently, the Zeon forces began an offensive centered on the Cairo base in West Asia and southern Africa. And successfully defeated many Union troops, occupied a large number of areas and obtained large mining areas.
Today's Cairo base has been put on alert at the moment, so the news came from the European forces before. It is said that the federal army has launched an operation, and perhaps the other side will also make some moves on the African base.
Zeon strengthened the base's defenses and sent reconnaissance units around the perimeter to prevent a possible surprise attack by the Federal Army.
In recent times, the development of the Earth side has become more and more intense. The Federation Army also developed their own MS, which gradually negated the original weapon advantage of the Zeon side.
Although relying on Zeon soil, advanced mechs have been continuously sent to fight against the Federation Army's MS. However, the advantage of quality still cannot completely eliminate the impact of quantitative inferiority.
As a result, Zeon was concerned about safety and concentrated his forces in a few major transportation arteries and forts. Based on these strongholds, they began to control the minerals in various places and quickly obtained resources for the war.
On the large alert radar at the Cairo base, a target suddenly came out at high speed from outer space. So the air defense alarm at the base was immediately sounded.
Suddenly, anti-aircraft artillery and anti-aircraft missiles were pointed into the sky. Even some of the MS held their weapons and looked up at the sky.
Immediately, the Zeon soldiers in the Cairo base could see a point of light emerging from the sky. Although it was broad daylight, the object in the sky was very conspicuous.
As if it were a shooting star, the thing dragging the long tail flame was swooping towards this side at a great speed.
Suddenly, the air defense system of the base began to fire into the sky, and a dense barrage of bullets exploded one after another in the sky. Dozens of surface-to-air missiles spewed tail flames, shooting into the sky like sharp swords.
Although anti-aircraft guns and missiles formed a barrage in the sky, they could not put up any effective resistance in the face of high-speed mass bullets.
More than ten seconds later, under the horrified gaze of the Zeon soldiers. The mass projectile, which reached a speed of dozens of times the speed of sound, hit the Cairo base heavily.
In an instant, the huge impact force formed by dozens of times the speed of sound and the mass of the projectile itself immediately began to spread around the center of the impact point.
The powerful shock wave instantly swept everything in the base around, and the ground quickly cracked and collapsed under the high-speed impact. The Zeon troops in the base were completely wiped out by the attack in an instant.
The mushroom cloud, formed by the impact, began to fly into the sky. The loud sound was also heard in the distance in the city of Cairo.
At first, the citizens thought it was an earthquake, but then they could see the smoke rising from the sky.
At this time, the federal army troops, who had been waiting in the Sinai Peninsula for a long time, immediately launched an operation after receiving the news of the successful attack from the intelligence officers, and rushed towards the location of the Zeon troops.
At the same time, as the Federation Army began to act, the battle in the universe became more and more intense. In the face of the enemy that could be invisible, the MS troops of the Zeon fleet were immediately taken by surprise.
The five MSs were reduced to ashes in a rainstorm of electromagnetic shells, and one after another Zeon battleships were pierced by beam cannons.
But until this time, Zeon had not been able to detect the hidden enemy. Although it was shown on the radar, the speed of the opponent's movement was too fast. And cunningly use their own warships as cover, constantly attacking the remaining warships.
Zeon's reinforcement fleet was not without a thought of moving on, ignoring the elusive enemy. But every time the other party hunted and killed, the target was the battleship that rushed to the front.
In the Federation camp on the opposite side, more than a dozen warships also took the initiative to approach here while firing, obviously preparing to cooperate with the invisible MS to block the advance of Zeon's troops.
Faced with such a situation, the Zeon fleet did not choose to retreat, but continued to increase the projection of firepower. At the same time, the MS troops were ordered to break through the defense line of the Federation Army with all their strength to destroy the opponent's fleet in geosynchronous orbit.
Because Zeon has already received an urgent report from Earth. It was said that they had found orbital bombardment, and that the Federation Army had used new weapons.
In order to protect the other bases on the earth, the Zeon fleet began to desperately launch a firepower salvo at the target in front, and at the same time, the defensive fire of the battleship also began to carry out intensive bombardment of the airspace around which the target could not be seen.
At this time, Xiahoulin immediately fell into a dense network of firepower, although his driving skills are quite good, and he also has advanced assistance systems and stealth equipment.
However, in the face of the indiscriminate firing of the Zeon fleet, he still encountered unexpected trouble. After dodging several beams, the Dream Demon Gundam was finally hit by several missiles.
Immediately, with the flash of the flames of the explosion, the figure of the Dream Demon Gundam, which was originally invisible, gradually revealed its original behavior with the protective shield opened.
At this time, the Zeon MS, who was escorting the battleship, immediately rushed towards the location of the Dream Demon Gundam in desperation.
Faced with the incoming Zeon MS troops, Xiahoulin noticed a somewhat unfortunate situation. Previously, because of the resistance to attacks, the protective shield of the Dream Demon Gundam has reached its limit at this moment. As a result, it is not possible to provide effective defense, and the optical stealth system has also been forced to cool down after continuous use.
Seeing those Zeon MS rushing over, Xia Houlin was not afraid in the end. Instead, he controls the Dream Demon Gundam and directly meets the enemy and starts a fierce battle.
But then Xia Houlin found that he was probably a little too big this time. Among those enemies, there are two MS-14 warriors, one red and one white, with mobility that is not inferior to that of ordinary Gundam mechs, and the pilot's skills are also very good.
In the course of several grappling sessions, if it weren't for the Dream Demon Gundam's strong speed and agility, I am afraid that he would have been planted in the hands of these two pilots.
"The red body and the white body are Zeon's trump cards." Thinking of this, Xia Houlin controlled MS so seriously for the first time to start a fierce battle with his opponent.
At this moment, Xiahou Lin was unprecedentedly serious, and when he controlled the Gundam, the whole person was completely calm. Relying on the reaction speed beyond ordinary people, he constantly fights fiercely with two opponents while moving at high speed.
Just after the MS piloted by two Zeon aces successfully entangled the Dream Demon Gundam piloted by Xia Houlin. The remaining ships of the Zeon fleet, which had disarmed the threat, immediately rushed towards the position of the Federation Army.
Although Xia Houlin saw this scene, he couldn't rush over to stop it at this moment. Because the two opponents in front of him are too difficult, it is impossible for him to be distracted at all, otherwise he will be shot down in the next moment.
Moreover, the Dream Demon Gundam that Xia Houlin was piloting at the moment, because of the fierce battle, the energy consumption of the body now is very amazing, and I am afraid that it will be an embarrassing situation of insufficient energy in the near future.
If it doesn't matter in peacetime, but now is the most critical time for the battle, the enemy in front of you will not give him a chance to return to the fleet to replenish.
The Zeon reinforcements resolutely ignored the enemy behind them and began to shoot at the Federation fleet.
However, a volley of naval guns from the flanks destroyed the plans of the Zeon fleet once again. I saw that in the distant airspace, more than 20 Federation warships really opened fire while fiercely pounced on the Zeon fleet.
