Chapter 12: Fireworks
"Civil Buildings and Supply Depots Go into Defensive Mode"
"The ground defense system is fully activated"
"The air defense system locks onto the target and waits for instructions...
Just behind General Max, the operational command center had moved forward to one of the ground forts at the forefront.
One by one, combat orders were passed out from here in an orderly manner.
With the execution of these instructions,
On the surface of the star ring, one after another civilian low-rise buildings began to sink into the ground.
In its place were the constantly rising eight-bay anti-aircraft missile towers and unmanned high-energy electromagnetic machine gun towers.
"Ask the escort guards, how long will they need!"
Max asked the Communications Officer back.
"Report to the General! Second Lieutenant Alem, who received the unit, has just sent a message that he has completed the guidance mission and is about to return home."
Hearing the communications officer's answer, General Max took out a tactical telescope and looked at the Liberator-class battleship in the sky.
Sure enough, I saw that the battleship, which was still being attacked by various flying insects in the air, exploded again in the engine part.
In the midst of the flames of the explosion, a small group of escort attack planes quickly dived towards the ground.
After General Max adjusted the tactical telescope to a 100-meter imaging, he could clearly see the rear of the escort attack planes.
towing an escape pod that had just been released from a battleship,
Embarrassed, he rushed towards the central tower that had shocked Nataya for a long time, and was incomparably huge and towering into the sky.
"Excellent! It seems that the goods have been received.
Since they have chosen war, let's show these sons of bitches what war is! ”
The data of the invaders that the Third Fleet traded for their lives,
Not so long ago it was sent to Al Antuk by the fleet scout troops.
General Max studied it almost every day.
When he saw the information that the Laupa Administrative Star garrison was almost wiped out by the invaders in one day,
He began to use the electronic sand table and the staff of the First Army Corps to repeatedly deduce,
In the end, it was found that judging from the strength of the invaders exposed at present, if he was to take command, although it was impossible to obtain a strategic victory,
But at least it was more than enough to hold out until the Third Fleet arrived to support.
Of course, General Max knew very well in his heart,
These deductions are all based on detailed data on intruders.
Looking at the group of escort planes, towing the presidential guard marked rescue pod across the defense zone sky,
General Max lowered his tactical binoculars.
Because those enemies in the air are already almost visible to the naked eye.
"Anti-aircraft fire, indiscriminate barrage preparation, fire control radar is locked nearby! Await orders! ”
"Viking Mecha Brigade, get ready for a counter-shock! Await orders! ”
"Infantry team, enter the nearest defensive bunker! Await orders! ”
"Anti-materiel sniper units aim at those bags in the air! Await orders! ”
"Ground melee raider troops, Wolf Warrior squad on standby!"
。。。
A steady and clear voice that constantly reverberates in the battlefield channel of the First Army Corps,
In this moment of life and death, this voice gives everyone stability and confidence.
"Roger!"
"Received General Max!"
"Roger, good luck with us!"
"Roger, targeted!"
"Roger, victory is with us!"
。。。
"Steady~~~Steady~~~Steady !!"
The troops behind General Max could already clearly see the ugly appearance of the first wave of monsters falling from the sky.
A small flying insect with fleshy wings and a bulging green belly is mixed with a centipede flying insect with bat-like wings.
There is also a huge fleshy worm with a flat disc head and a tentacle dragging tentacles
and huge bulging biological sacs, which are rapidly falling towards the ground.
"Fire !!"
These two words in the channel have made everyone almost suffocate when waiting.
With the appearance of these two words, the fire of humanity exploded into the air like fireworks on the front of the star ring to meet the first wave of impact.
The first to strike were eight anti-aircraft missile launchers on the ground, which had replaced their armor-piercing ammunition with missiles aimed at the intruder two days earlier.
The first wave of missiles flew into the dense swarm,
If it is a conventional missile that relies on fragments for damage or armor-piercing, the number of these intruders can easily absorb this wave of attacks.
This is also the reason why the Laupa garrison and the Third Fleet suffered heavy losses in the first place.
Humans never fall in the same place three times.
I saw the first round of missiles flying into the swarm explode, and violent light and heat were generated from it.
That's a high-explosive white phosphorus bomb, each with an explosion radius of about 100 meters.
And the high-burning fragments that exploded can ignite almost a piece of the sky,
The high-heat fragments filled inside have been reduced in size to ensure that they can be quickly oxidized and burned before they hit the ground, and radiate a larger range of air.
The damage and confusion caused by this weapon is the biggest nemesis of the dense formation.
Sure enough, the white phosphorus and magnesium flakes that burned violently in the air not only burned the body of the insect swarm violently.
It also produced a huge thermal energy area and infrared radiation area, and the insect swarm in the air instantly fell into chaos.
War never gives you a chance.
Before the swarm could recover from the attack that had turned the sky into daylight, a second wave of missiles took off.
The biggest difference with the first wave of missiles is that the second wave of missiles did not release fireworks on the way to the air.
Because, each warhead is split into hundreds or thousands of small warheads.
"Boom ~ Boom ~ Boom Boom ~~~~~~"
This is the submunition used to clear minefields in human warfare...
General Max creatively threw them into the midst of the invaders.
Then, the third, the fourth, the fifth... A total of eight rounds of missiles, wave after wave of missiles, did not give the insects in the sky a chance to react.
High-energy incendiary bombs, shock wave bombs, Damu sub-mother blasting bombs...
Almost all the servicemen on the ground were stunned,
Many meched infantrymen nervously pinching high-energy electromagnetic guns raised their protective masks on their heads,
Take a closer look at the battlefield that looks like a fireworks display on National Day.
"Oh my God... It can still be used like this! ”
It turns out that after the anti-aircraft missile has been replaced with ammunition, it can fight such a splendid battle...
In previous wars, the enemy of anti-aircraft weapons was all kinds of warships and warplanes.
It relies more on ultra-high-speed armor-piercing ammunition for interception and penetration, and then cooperates with energy weapons to destroy the ship's precision instruments.
When the enemy becomes these insects, today's fireworks show is a ground-to-air battle that these soldiers have never seen in their lives...
