Chapter 15: The Death of the Teacher (Part II)
But at the same time, as the distance closes, the long-range attack loses its advantage. As a result, all the outermost parts of the assault array drew their melee weapons and rushed towards the enemy camp. It was only at this time that the enemy commander woke up from a dream and hurriedly ordered: "All frontal contact with the airframe, prepare for white-knuckle combat!" The rest of the mechs are far away and kill the opponent from a distance! ”
However, it was too late, and because of this second of delay, the enemy camp instantly appeared flawed. The periphery of the Fengyue Assault Array took the lead in attacking the enemy, causing the opponent to be caught off guard and could only parry indiscriminately. As a result of the hasty defense, less than ten more bodies were broken and fell.
"Heh, I didn't expect these kids to be quite able to fight." Wren coped with the attack of the wing while watching the battle of the large forces from afar. In his heart, he silently labeled Nagisa and Shouhe as "dangerous people, focus on beware".
Although the effect of the Fengyue Assault Array was very significant so far, it had successively destroyed nearly 50 enemy aircraft, while only four of its own aircraft were completely scrapped, but the ratio of forces between the two sides was still not optimistic about 3 to 50. And the most important thing is that at this time, the enemy has completely gotten rid of the initial panic and returned to normal combat power. Therefore, under the combination of various factors, the two sides fell into the most tragic hand-to-hand combat.
"Brothers, rush out!"
"Avenge us!"
"We're going, I wish you good luck!"
The roars that appeared from time to time made Nagisa and Shouzuru feel heartbroken, because every sound they remembered meant that another classmate—or comrade-in-arms—had been killed. And these innocent sacrifices are all people who have been selected by various countries and carefully cultivated by academies, and are likely to become great pilots in the future. Such an unwarranted disaster easily took their lives. It is an incalculable loss to themselves, their families, and even their respective countries.
But at this time, they did not have time to pay tribute to the souls of the dead, and could only continue to fight the enemy to the death at the forefront of the battle to find a way out. Only in this way will the deceased not die in vain.
"Damned traitor! Die, all of you! Nagisa, who was a little out of control, screamed and vented his inner anger and grief, dodged the enemy's attack, and directly slashed the enemy with his two beam sabers, "I will kill you one by one, hateful executioners!" ”
Nagisa was killing up, and an enemy plane suddenly rushed out from behind him, and without saying a word, launched a ferocious attack on him, the move was fatal, and there was no room for Nagisa to dodge or counterattack, so he could only blindly block, and he was about to be unable to parry.
“GodFinger!” At this moment, Shouhe's voice sounded in Nagisa's ears. With this roar, the enemy plane was blasted out dozens of meters away by Shouhe's flashing finger, "Oh yes, a great success!" ”
"Thanks!"
"No, don't rob Shirley from me......"
"When is it, you shut up for me!" Nagisa rolled his eyes, "Kill!" The hope of life lies ahead! ”
"Hey, just kidding......," Shouhe chuckled, "That's right, let's settle the ledger with these guys first!" ”
The extreme pain and anger made Nagisa's originally warm eyes turn red, and with a wave of the beam saber in his hand, he took the lead and rushed out. The desperate rush of the academy cadets succeeded in tearing a gap in the enemy's camp once again, and everyone quickly and methodically passed through it. After a few minutes of desperate speed, everyone finally arrived at a place where they could take a breath.
"Except for those with exclusive bodies, the rest of the personnel scattered and fled for their lives, looking for reinforcements! Fast! As Nagisa's order was delivered, the seven planes quickly departed in all directions, and only nine people remained.
Nagisa took a deep breath and desperately held back the tears that were about to slip. Only sixteen planes broke out alive with the Fengyue Assault Array just now, and more than half of their comrades died in the enemy position. But it was gratifying that the sacrifice of nearly twenty airframes was exchanged for the possibility of reinforcements arriving and the wreckage of more than sixty enemy airframes.
"Those who remain quickly seek cover and engage in guerrilla warfare with the enemy, and do not give them any chance to intervene in the battle on the other side."
"Yes!"
As time went on, the tide of battle on both sides began to take a surprising turn. The battle between Tsubasa and Wren continued, but by this time Tsubasa had gradually fallen to the downside. The previous fierce offensive did not help him to take down the opponent in one go, but instead made his energy waste, and he could only slowly switch from attack to defense.
"What's wrong? Where is the fierce attack and indomitable momentum just now? Wren scoffed as he kept attacking the wings.
"Bastard! Don't get complacent too soon, even if you have the advantage now, don't try to win me completely for a while. Although Tsubasa said this, he also knew very well in his heart that he had fallen into the disadvantage. It was she who underestimated the opponent in front of her, and only now did she gradually see that Renne's strength was too deeply hidden, and even if she relied on the dragoon system, she would not be able to defeat him.
"Nagisa, you guys have to come on over there." There was a hint of weakness in Tsubasaki's eyes, "All I can do now is to hold Wren as long as possible and wait for reinforcements to arrive." ”
At this time, the battle situation on Nagisa and Shouzuru's side began to change subtly with the arrival of the first reinforcements. Although there were not many planes rushing to support this round, there were only twenty-six or seven units left that the enemy still had combat ability left at this time. Therefore, the arrival of these more than a dozen airframes made the balance of victory gradually tilt towards the academy.
But what made Nagisa feel strange and uneasy was that although Wren saw that the battle situation of the large army had irrepressibly developed in a direction that was unfavorable to his side, he did not rush to support, but insisted on holding on to the wing, and the wave after wave of unstoppable offensives pressed the wing on the verge of collapse.
And not far from them, the battle between Xingchen and Sword Cat is unusually "peaceful". The two sides were at a stalemate with each other, and neither of them blindly launched an offensive, but just looked for the flaws of the other in the non-stop movement.
Although the gap between the academy and the rebels has basically disappeared, there is still an irreparable gap in actual combat experience, so they can only use guerrilla tactics to deal with the enemy. Even with this caution, four of the first reinforcements were shot down by enemy fire due to their lack of agility.
"Don't be impulsive! Don't chase for results! Shoot from a distance and delay interference! Nagisa frowned, "Pay attention to evasion and defense, don't show flaws when attacking the enemy, it will be easy to be attacked by the opponent's fire!" ”
"Nagisa, it's not a way to go on like this." Shouhe was anxious, "The gap between the cadets and the regular army is too big!" ”
"I know! But now it can only be like this. As Nagisa spoke, the beam saber in his hand suddenly struck, slashing down a Divine Realm body, "According to the Holy List Arena just now, the second batch of reinforcements will arrive soon—and this batch of reinforcements is led by the Arena's Overseer. So what we have to do now is procrastinate. ”
"That's a good idea." "But I just can't understand why Ren and the others are not in a hurry at all, and they are still pestering Tsubasa and Master—are they so sure that they will be able to get out of the way?" ”
"I don't say it's good, but I always have a bad premonition." Nagisa shook his head, "I hope it's just that I'm too worried." ”
"Dididi-" Before the voice fell, a text message came from Nagisa's communication system, "Nagisa, Shouhe, hello!" I am the No. 3 Overseer of the Holy List Arena, and I am now leading the second batch of fifty-seven airframe reinforcements, and I will immediately enter the combat area, please instruct! ”
"Overseer 3, good work! I don't need to explain the current situation to you, you should already know it well enough. Nagisa pressed the uneasiness and doubts in his heart, "Please lead reinforcements to attack the enemy position from the side." Be careful, though, I always have a bad feeling that the enemy boss probably still has unused cards - but I don't know what they are, so I don't know how to defend them. I can only see the moves. ”
"Okay, got it." Overseer 3 issued an order over the communication system, "Reinforcements attention! Prepare to quickly break through the enemy positions from the flank! Remember, don't fall in love with the enemy after defeating them, open the shooting distance, and use concentrated artillery fire to completely crush the enemy! Repeat, don't fall in love, distance yourself and crush your enemies with ranged attacks! ”
"Yes!"
