Chapter 155: The Knight's Battlefield (3)

In the middle of the night, the blue-and-white star Barnard completely disappeared from the horizon, and the planet Wendini, the shimmering star, was shrouded in endless darkness. **Biquge.biquge. updated the fastest**

In the distance, the huge, dark forest flickered with faint pink and blue light, flickering like ghostly fire. Listen closely, the hoarse, piercing howls of the behemoth resounded abruptly from the depths of the dead silence of the forest, and the towering and dense canopy of the Alba wood swayed in the wind, scattering countless fallen leaves. It felt as if the huge forest had come to life, and it was impossible to tell if there was an enemy hiding in the dark shadows.

The human eye can distinguish nearly a hundred colors, and among them, darkness is always the most abominable. Five million years of evolution have made humans accustomed to judging things with their eyes, so when darkness obscures their vision, the searchlights on the 320-meter-high signal tower at the H-2 research base are immediately turned on. Several pillars of light swept over the edge of the forest at a fixed frequency, allowing the sentinels to use the light to dispel the darkness. At the same time, the sectoral radar above the command room also rotated tirelessly, and the radar signal personnel were in place 24 hours a day, carefully identifying the seriously disturbed radar signals in a state of high nervous tension.

"Are you sure they're going to attack tonight?"

Equipped with the upgraded Type IV armor 'Vampire Elf', Leona leaned her back against the beacon and whispered to Robin without saying a word.

"If they don't attack the most female, then Cecilia's railgun will help us solve the problem." Robin, equipped with 'Shura', knelt on one side like a statue, silently gazing at the forest as silent as death.

"Cecilia has reached the attack position?"

"Yes, I've been in touch with her since I decided to use this tactic. **Biquge.biquge.fastest update**" Robin stretched out his finger and pointed to the dark night sky: "Now she's above us." ”

"You're using yourself as bait." Leona glanced at Robin and said in a flat tone.

"Yes."

Seeing that Robin didn't deny it, Leona couldn't help but shake her head: "Although I don't know much about military affairs, since Cecilia is already in place, why do you want Xia Zuo and them to venture into the jungle to search for their coordinates?" Wouldn't it be easier to have Cecilia launch a railgun attack when they officially launched the attack? ”

"Carpet bombing is a good idea, but the opposing commander won't give me that opportunity......" Robin's voice stopped as he was explaining, as if sensing something, staring with bated breath into the dark depths of the jungle.

Robin doesn't have Lee's eyesight, nor can he tell if there's an enemy hiding in it simply by the shaking of a leaf like Lee does. However, the battlefield perception honed by the tearing and killing allowed him to sense the impending crisis one step ahead, just like now, although he could not judge the exact location of the other party, the dark feeling told him that the enemy he was waiting for was nearby at this moment.

Suddenly! ~A sharp, piercing shriek rang out abruptly in this moment of silence, and the dark forest in the distance was lit up by a sudden firelight. In an instant, dozens of missiles wrapped in blue-white tail flames slashed through the dark night and shot at the base's signal tower, guarded by Robin and Leona.

Almost at the same time, the missile launchers under the signal tower fired several times the opponent's missiles in a roar, and the rotating turret, which was originally hidden under the ground, also quickly turned up, and quickly pulled a barrage like a fishnet in the sky with a 40-millimeter caliber anti-aircraft rapid-fire gun. **Biquge.biquge. updated the fastest**

Missiles swirling in the sky marked graceful paths like petrels chasing each other, but the next moment, the blinding light of fire illuminated the sky. A series of roars sent a terrifying shock wave through the sky, radiating in all directions like a gust of wind.

At this moment, through the dazzling firelight that lit up from time to time in the sky, Robin could clearly see countless black shadows rushing out of the edge of the forest. They charged the 70-meter-high alloy defensive wall of the H-2 base from all sides, and the dense energy projectiles mixed with the roar of machine guns covered all the fire points on the defensive wall like raindrops.

The rapid counterattack of the base also started at the same time, facing the rain of bullets from the opponent's pavement, the rapid-fire machine guns on the defense tower sounded like fried beans with a continuous roar of machine guns. Relying on the large defensive deck of the rotating turret, even if the turret seemed to have been sparked by the opponent's accurate rapid fire, the chain of bullets pulled out from the muzzle of the gun still did not stop in the slightest.

In just a short period of time, the barrage of barrages woven between friend and foe has covered every space within the eye of sight. Since the emperor's attack was not focused on a certain place, but was launched from all directions, almost every angle of the base was in a state of engagement at this moment.

This all-round offensive mode is a very rare tactic in the army's offensive battles, and unless it has superior forces and a large number of heavy weapons, the attacking side's offensive method of dispersing offensive firepower cannot achieve substantial results at all. But judging from the scene in front of him, the offensive momentum of the emperor ** obviously overturned this military common sense.

Superior forces and a large number of heavy weapons, these two elements of the offensive are exactly what the emperor lacks. However, their superior individual combat ability and the Type IV armor they are equipped with make up for the above two shortcomings. Relying on the stronger armor defense capability of the Type IV armor than the heavier armored vehicle, the charging emperor ** soldiers completely ignored the rain of bullets poured by the defenders, and while using the armor defense ability to carry the rain of bullets, their agile rapid movement and scattered formation also greatly weakened the hit probability of the defenders.

On top of that, their precise continuous rapid-fire on the move also makes their attacks extremely ferocious. It's just a regular company with less than 100 troops, but the defensive pressure they create makes the defenders feel as if they are facing a full-scale attack of a division, if they don't occupy the commanding height with a height difference of 70 meters, and have the advantage of firepower, this all-round charge of the emperor ** is enough to capture the base guarded by the Republic Army.

At this moment, Leona, who was standing on the top of the signal tower and looking out over the entire battlefield, was completely shocked by the magnificent battle scene. Within a radius of about a kilometer from the defensive wall of the H-2 research base, the countless figures that rushed forward broke through the firepower network built by the base within tens of seconds, and it was only at this moment that she understood why Robin would say that the other party would not give him a chance to carry out carpet bombing at all.

With a scattered formation and such a rapid rush speed, even if Cecilia in space was already in place, she couldn't lock on to the ground target so quickly. When the enemy's attack tip breaks through to a distance of 300 meters from the base defense wall, the explosive power of the railgun may spread to the base defense wall. Therefore, unless Robin was ready to abandon the H-2 base, it was absolutely impossible to carry out railgun carpet bombing at the risk of the destruction of the defensive wall.

As for the distance of three hundred meters, judging from the previous advance speed of the emperor, this distance is already quite dangerous for the defenders, but if you put aside the railguns in space and talk about the ground defense of the base alone, then the distance of three hundred meters is precisely the best distance for the base's defensive firepower to begin to exert its power.

At the beginning of the battle, the emperor launched a charge at the edge of the forest a kilometer away, and the formation was relatively loose, so the firepower network built by the various batteries in the base would inevitably be loose, and the penetration power would be greatly weakened due to distance. However, when the distance between the two sides is close to 300 meters, the offensive formation of the emperor will immediately become dense, which makes ...
