Chapter 70: Orbital Assault

“3、2、1!”

The armor on the bottom of the transport slowly unfolded to the sides, revealing a honeycomb-like structure inside, and the orbital assault module was housed in these hexagonal holes. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

As the countdown ended, the electromagnetic locks that held the assault pod in place were unlocked, and the assault pod slid into the launch tunnel beneath it, and after a brief acceleration of the channel, it rushed towards the planet below.

From a distance, hundreds of thousands of orbital assault modules broke away from the transport fleet, like a heavy rain, which was overwhelmingly sprinkled over the earth.

Although Monica has simulated hundreds of orbital airborne landings in the learning machine, she is still a little excited about the first time she is actually lying in the orbital assault chamber (hereinafter referred to as the airborne compartment).

Monica could clearly see the scene in front of her through the transparent shield, and the endless airborne capsule obscured the sky in front of her, and the blue sky below her was getting closer and closer......

There was a violent shaking, and the violent friction between the airborne chamber and the atmosphere burned the shield in front of Monica's eyes red.

"The current speed is 3000m\s, the angle is 2.5 degrees, and it is expected to reach the ground in 13 minutes...... "Monica's eyes appeared in front of the current airborne warehouse data.

Dozens of seconds later, Monica's vision changed in vain, and the vast sky began to appear pale blue.

"Coming within the range of the enemy's anti-aircraft fire network!" Monica shouted to all the soldiers in the communicator.

As soon as the words fell, beams of light swept across the sky, turning dozens of airborne silos into flying ash, followed by explosions in the sky, and one after another anti-aircraft missiles flew up from the ground and rushed to the airborne silos in the sky.

Countless flickering small balls of light flew out from one airborne locus and threw them into the sky, and the flying anti-aircraft missiles were attracted by the balls of light and flew aside, but still some of the airborne silos were hit by missiles and turned into a cloud of fireworks.

Debris from the explosion of the airborne chamber shot out in all directions, smashing the shield in front of Monica with a crackling sound.

"Airborne Compartment Armor Integrity 81%" alarm sounded.

At this moment, dozens of red pillars of light descended from the sky, burning the already exposed air defense positions into ruins.

The loss of the airborne silo was greatly reduced, but it did not last long, and the group of airborne silos that had entered the low altitude was attacked by ancient anti-aircraft guns, and the alliance pulled these ancient weapons that had been sealed for nearly a hundred years out of the warehouse and armed them into each group of soldiers.

Countless anti-aircraft artillery shells slammed into the armor of the airborne compartment, and balls of flames flashed on the armor.

"52% armor intact!"

"45% armor intact!"

"The armor completion level is close to the safe threshold, and the armor of the airborne compartment is about to fail!" Piercing sirens sounded in the airborne compartment, and the shield in front of Monica had begun to crack one after another.

"All airborne silos launch submunitions to cover the landing site!" Monica calmly ordered without the slightest panic.

In an instant, dozens of tiny warheads shot out from the bottom of all the airborne compartments, and shot rapidly towards the ground.

Bursts of explosions sounded, and the vicinity of the landing area of the airborne compartment had been swept away by the explosion of warheads, and the originally fierce anti-aircraft fire instantly dropped several levels!

As the airborne compartment got closer and closer to the ground, red flames erupted from the bottom of the airborne compartment, rapidly reducing the speed of the airborne compartment, and then slammed into the ground, smashing cracks into the surrounding ground.

However, Monica in the airborne chamber did not feel much shock, and the buffer that wrapped her absorbed most of the kinetic energy.

With the sound of exhaust, the shield of the airborne compartment was thrown out, and the transparent buffer flowed to the ground and quickly evaporated.

Monica pulled out her Ripper rifle and jumped out of the airborne compartment, a tumbling half-kneeling on the ground, rifle in hand and warily scanning around.

"Confirm safety!"

She waited for a moment but did not wait for a reply from her companion, and when she turned her head, she realized that only her shield was still intact in the entire airborne compartment, and the shields of the other five soldiers had long since been broken.

Since the buffer in their chamber had already evaporated, the loud tremor of the final landing knocked the five unconscious.

Monica threw out the alert drone and turned around and dragged the five soldiers out of the airborne bin.

"All the soldiers of the 1st Regiment are to assemble at me at twelve o'clock to the torch building, and I have five wounded here, and then they will arrive."

Monica pointed her arms at the soldiers lying flat on the ground, and commanded at the portable AI:

"Start diagnostics, connect their power armor."

A flash of green light flashed, and green lights began to flicker on the visors of several soldiers.

"Major Monica, these five soldiers have reached the third degree of serious injury, and the current medical conditions cannot be treated, and they can only be treated if they are brought back to the battleship." The voice of the AI rang out.

It seemed that they would have to stay here until after the battle, and Monica shook her head helplessly, turning around and running towards the meeting place.

In a few moments she was crawling through layers of ruins; When we arrived at the Torch Building, thousands of soldiers had occupied the entire building, and from time to time you could see the muzzles of guns sticking out of the windows.

Several soldiers who were on guard hurriedly stood up and saluted when they saw Monica:

"Hello Commander!"

Monica nodded lightly and said:

"With this building as the center, a radius of one kilometer is divided into a defensive circle, and people are sent to guard it, and we will hold out until the arrival of heavy weapon support!"

"Yes!" Several soldiers turned to leave, and hundreds of soldiers ran out of the building and quickly dispersed in all directions.

Monica walked into the Torch Building, which was supposed to be an upscale hotel, with a lavishly decorated lobby but a messy affair due to the war.

The hall was filled with supplies that the soldiers had taken out of the airborne bins, and rows of boxes were scattered on the ground, and Monica made her way up the stairs on the side of the hall to the second basement floor.

The second basement floor is an underground casino, but no one is in the mood to gamble after the outbreak of the war, so all kinds of equipment are covered with dust, and the original rest room is also temporarily used as a combat command center, in which several soldiers are busy.

"How's it going, when will heavy weapons support arrive?" Monica walked in and asked the Communications Officer.

"Sir, the transport ship transporting heavy weapons said that the ground anti-aircraft fire is still somewhat strong, and we need to empty some of the anti-aircraft positions hidden in the building before we can land safely." The Communications Officer lowered the contact and replied to Monica.

Monica nodded: "Let's go and empty the landing zone!" Hurry up the transport fleet again, let them hurry! ”

With that, Monica drew her weapon and walked out.

"Draw eight hundred people, an air defense stronghold within a radius of ten kilometers from the target! Team 1 follow me! Monica commanded the communicator.

The Airborne Corps, which received the order, scattered into small groups and scattered around, one of which joined up with Monica.

"Sir, stay in the command center, it's better to leave the battle to us." The captain of the squad kindly suggested.

Monica frowned: "No, I'm not a vase!" If I sacrifice the first regiment and give it to the deputy commander to command! ”

With that, Monica took the lead in walking to the front of the team, and several team members looked at each other and hurriedly caught up.
