Chapter 979: Nolan's Knight

The Longshou Plateau is an open area of about 200 square kilometers, but it is actually a major plateau flat land on a huge ring mountain range. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The height difference is more than 8,000 meters.

On the side controlled by the Eagle Country, the mountain rises and falls in the shape of a ladder slope, while at the end of the Xipang army, it is a kind of cross-sectional mountain range.

From the low mountain below, it looks like a huge wall between heaven and earth. In the middle of this huge wall of thousands of kilometers long, there is another convex extension, and the extension is hidden into the clouds, forming a kind of earth for waves, inverted wind. Here, it is the Longshou Heights.

The steel position of the Royal Young Knights stretches on this high ground, and at the forefront is a sentry every hundreds of meters, with a total length of 70 kilometers, and the bunkers are equipped with self-propelled railguns and anti-aircraft missile arrays, which can almost guarantee the defense of the perimeter. Within the position, there are countless barracks, mechas, and equipment depots.

In the distant sky, there are many dense black shadows, since the Royal Young Knights stationed in this highland, the Xipang people's breakthrough here has not been interrupted, in the position, the wake of the vector thrusters of a group of fighters of the Royal Young Knights supported the fighters to rush into the air, when these fighters floated in the air and began to accelerate towards the incoming enemy, there were countless white lines at the front of the high ground accompanied by some kind of rapid and rapid launch sound at high speed into the sky, and after a while, the sky was accompanied by flashes, There was a thunderous explosion.

In those dazzling explosions, the incoming fighters of the fish that slipped through the net pierced the treacherous cloud of flames and flashes and shot down, and at the same time, the fighters on the ground rose to meet them, truly like flying knights, fighting in the sky. But the group of incoming fighters basically became the end of the crossbow, and under the continuous fire of the pilots of the Royal Young Knights, many of them were hit by bullets and fell and exploded.

However, some struggled to get closer to the heights, opened their belly bays, and carried high-explosive missiles that popped out of the bottom and fired at a building that looked like an energy tank on the high ground where they had locked onto their targets. Although these planes were quickly blown to pieces by the Knights who followed them, the missiles approached the important facilities in the high ground with the intention of destruction.

However, when the missiles swept down at high speed, some of the batteries in the base were automatically activated. At present, the most advanced anti-aircraft batteries of these eagle countries are round in shape as if they are alive, and an electronic single eye is quickly raised, and in tens of milliseconds, it locks on one missile after another, and then the launch boring mouth of the cannonball shoots out countless rays of fire, scattering into the sky, and at the end of those fires flying, a small circular aircraft appears, these aircraft are in the shape of petals, and the dripping rapid spiral is attached to the missile, almost after several such aircraft are adsorbed, the missile will explode in the sky on its own.

A tumbling flame, like a fiery dragon that appeared out of thin air, coiled and twisted over the high ground. The missiles of the last resort of attack also declared that they had not done their best.

On both sides of the heights, a wave of heavy mechs carrying wings began to land. The air is unapproachable, so from the ground, these mechs hold a huge shield, and use the wingspan of more than ten meters to launch a back-up attack, after landing on the high ground, the flying wings are immediately abandoned, and the mecha arches towards the high ground with a shield.

This shield is constructed of special materials, which is a unique war technology of the Sipang people, and the shield itself has built-in energy and has an energy field, which can resist the attack of live ammunition weapons and energy weapons, and does not affect the effectiveness of shielding precision-guided weapons in the slightest. A mecha holding such a heavy shield may increase its defense ability several times, and it is just a mecha rifle shell that is idle, and the power of hitting the shield is greatly reduced.

The attack was about the strength of two Sipang standard cavalry regiments, and during the advance, a lot of artillery fire fell on the heavy shield of the Sipang mecha, causing a huge explosion. But often after the explosion, these mechs of the westerners can still move forward as if nothing happened.

Just when this way of advancing seemed to be effective, suddenly, on the side of the Eagle Nation High Ground Position, many cannons with a length of twenty meters and looked like a strange style probe rotated and aimed over, and then, these railguns, which were originally used to deal with large combat vehicles and aerial ships, opened fire one after another.

The red light flashed, and these Xipang mechas, with their armor and shields, were hit by the rays, and then dissolved into the rainbow light.

The power of the railguns directly blew the attacking cavalry regiments into pieces with mechs and shields, and large craters appeared on the ground one after another. Soon, this offensive stopped, and the remnants of the Sipon mechs began to retreat.

***

On a relatively high slope around the highland defense line, a woman with a beautiful face, dressed in the uniform of a young officer, stood on the slope and watched the battle at the front line. The uniform on her body was well-proportioned and standard, and a little unearthly tall and heroic.

By her side, there were also a number of generals of the Royal Young Knights, accompanying her. Her gaze was fixed on the distance, taking in the offense and defense.

Then she began, "Another tentative attack, the determination of the Sipangs to detect our Eagle Country's defense of the high grounds. ”

Her voice is beautiful, like a spring breeze, at this time, I just feel that following her to inspect the battlefield is also a refreshing thing.

Nolan knew that the Sipans were testing their side, and they didn't know how determined the Eagle Nation was to defend the heights. In order to support this operation, Tetsu Egami dispatched all the logistics that were not wealthy, and transported a large amount of equipment to the high ground regardless of the cost.

The bunker is a powerful fortification on the ground battlefield, and it is a large detection tower in itself, which can detect the movement of a large area of the battlefield, and at the same time accommodate mechs and heavy artillery inside. Heavy artillery can strike any anomaly in advance, and sometimes even hangars for fighter planes. Therefore, a bunker, in fact, is very expensive, and it itself is a fortification with both attack and defense.

After multiple such bunkers have taken root in the ground, they can not only detect the situation within a radius of hundreds of kilometers, but also support each other with horns, which has the effect of being impregnable.

The hundreds of bunkers can be said to be set up by the Eagle Kingdom with huge logistical resources at present, encircling the entire defense line for 70 kilometers, which is also a bloody investment.

In addition, the latest anti-aircraft turret made by the Royal Engineer Equipment of the Kingdom with a round shape also appeared for the first time on the high ground, as well as a new self-propelled railgun...... A large number of these new equipment entered the front-line battlefield through the very narrow transportation lifeline of the Eagle Country by the Xipang space submarine, and Jiang Shang Zhe did not immediately put these hard-won new weapons into some battlefields to alleviate the urgent need, but put them all on the Longshou Heights.

In order to deal with the indispensable plan in the future battle, the defense of Longshou Heights cannot be too strong.

The Sipang people were the first to realize that something was wrong, so they sent a group of troops to break into battle, just to detect these new equipment, record the performance of weapons, and even possible weaknesses, so that they could use them.

It is foreseeable that Longshou Heights, in the future, will become the most tragic battlefield since the war.

"Your Highness Nolan, with your order, what if I just go and blow up another twenty or thirty Xipang mechas?" At her side, a young officer named Yuli threw his fist against his chest, blonde hair dancing in the wind.

In this war, although the Eagle Country paid a very cruel price, but the price paid in exchange for a lot, among which the soldiers in this war to stimulate their potential, rapid growth is also numerous, in this war, the birth of a large number of outstanding military talents, can be said to be a group of bright stars, this Yuli is one of them. There were eighty-seven mecha in his hands, including four seventh-level pilots and one eighth-level pilot, which can be said to be a great achievement.

In addition, Yuri is handsome and has blonde hair that looks more and more handsome, so he has a high popularity among the Knights. At this time, although his words were heroic and exaggerated, based on his record, they did not make people feel that they were exaggerated.

It's just that many young generals next to him are not to be outdone, especially in front of the princess, how can Yuli monopolize the horizon. So a young officer with short black hair stepped forward and half-knelt on the ground, "I, Latin, am willing to lead an army to cut through the enemy's vanguard and ensure that it will be difficult for them to organize such a temptation!" ”

Just Yuli just asked for a single person to only armor, and now Latin is leading an army, playing the role of strategic advantage, in comparison, it seems to be even worse, Yuli has become a scheming person who only knows personal heroism.

"You're not dealing with me, are you?" Yuri stared at Latin, but with a smile on her lips.

Latin glanced at him, "In terms of the number of falls, I'm not as good as you." But in terms of the ability to take the position and pull out the nails, you are far inferior. ”

Yuri said simply, "Can you put away your conceited language, this war is not yet at the end, is it too early for you to say that you have not been defeated, and don't fight for me to save you from the water and fire when the time comes." ”

The two of them were fighting with each other.

After that, several officers asked for orders one after another, which was nothing more than a strategy to compete with each other for greater combat achievements.

Nolan looked at everyone and said, "You are all outstanding soldiers of the kingdom, with extraordinary courage and great strength, but the time to show everyone is not yet here. Please continue to wait, I believe that the end of the Sipang people will come soon! ”

Under her words with red lips and white teeth, everyone was quite dazzled. In addition to the Supreme Operational Command, only Wang Nu herself knew about the battle plan of Longshou Heights, and ordinary officers naturally could not grasp the overall situation of the plan. But since the princess said that they didn't need to attack, everyone knew that it was their turn to carry out the battle plan, so they no longer insisted on fighting.

However, the words that expressed their will and determination were not a lot, and for a while, everyone was impassioned, and they expressed their incomparably strong desire to kill the Sipang.

Nolan nodded, "We are likely to face an unprecedented battle, but this must also be a battle that can lay the foundation for the victory of the entire battle, we are here, will play a supreme role, the warriors of your kingdom, knights, save your strength first, and then we will fight side by side to kill the enemy!" ”

Everyone responded in unison, "I want to fight for the princess!" ”

Nolan finally smiled at the crowd and turned around and walked back to the command post.

Leaving Yuli, Latin and many other young officers, Wuzi couldn't recover from that amazing smile. But for some reason, they found that Her Royal Highness's smile was a little indescribably lonely. But no one dared to delve into the inner cause.

After a moment, I don't know who spoke, "From the smile that His Highness Nolan gave me just now, I saw unparalleled expectations...... Ah, I will live up to my trust! ”

Someone immediately objected, "Fart, who said she smiled at you...... She's obviously on me! ”

A handsome-faced officer said coldly, "Are you children fighting...... I really didn't pursue it, His Highness's smile was blooming for all the heroic knights, it was selfless, you would fight for this, without any reserve! When I reported to His Highness the other day, she listened to me alone and finished a twenty-minute report...... Listen clearly, for twenty minutes, it's all my affectionate statement to Your Highness! ”

Someone immediately interrupted, "Yes" is "affectionate" is not "affectionate", it's really strange how did you graduate from the course of Chinese Studies of the Knights? Tsk, it seems that your pursuit is not very good, I heard that His Royal Highness Nolan later issued a new regulation, requiring everyone's report to be compressed to only five minutes, except for those with special emergencies...... It seems that your "report" really makes His Highness still feel uncomfortable......"

"Speaking of which, His Highness approved my battle plan last time, it seems that he has expectations for me, and it looks the other way......"

"Fart ......"

***

On the battlefield of the Milan Star Field, the star "Phoenix" of the New South Star Star Habitable System broke out with a flare of more than X10, and due to the influence of the solar storm, all the information in the Milan Star Field Theater was cut off. Neither the Eagle Nation, nor the Susa, nor the Sipon, who wanted to know more about the Axis Nation's opening up of the second battlefield in the Eagle Country, could not get all the information there.

The interference of this stellar flare outbreak will probably last for half a month, that is to say, half a month later, news may come out from that war zone, and that will also be the final result.

However, that result was not optimistic for the Eagle Country, which had already combined the previous strategic situation with the battlefield situation in the Milan Star Sector. It is likely that what will be waited for until the end is bad news!

Therefore, in order to meet this bad news, it is not only the Eagle Nation that is carrying out a second set of plans to prepare for a decisive battle with the Capital Star Circle as the final defense circle. There is also the plan of the Patriotic War troops of the Eagle Country in the lower three Yan - the "Longshou Heights Operation Plan"!

The star, which could be seen much brighter than usual in the Milan Star Domain at this time, was only an extremely small star in the sky at this time in the far away Feiyuan Star Battlefield.

At this end of the line, which is not known how many light years away, Nolan is standing quietly on the top floor of the command post with the stargazing platform.

Behind her, Milan Rand, Lu Ming's young officer, was half-kneeling and saluting.

She turned around and faced the man in front of her, but she hesitated when she wanted to speak.

For this hesitation made her a little discouraged, as a princess who has never been able to block the wind in the wind and fire, why is she so cowardly even a question?

So she regained her strength, puffed up her chest, and said to Lu Ming, "You and him are very good friends, so you should know that he really has a deep relationship with Miss Xia's?" ”

"May I ask Your Highness, is this about the military situation?" Lu Ming said quietly.

"Hmm...... Not really," Nolan was a little embarrassed, "it's my personal question, and if you don't want to answer it, it's okay." ”

During this time, as the young officer closest to the princess, Lu Ming certainly knew who "he" she was and which guy he was.

But this doesn't mean that he knows everything about him, you know, between two people, there used to be a competitive relationship in which you chased me......

Lu Ming has a cold temperament, but being cold does not mean that he is ignorant of the world, so when he heard the question of the princess, he only had a deep shock in his heart, and he said Lin Hai, what kind of sin have you done.

Lu Ming thought about it, and finally responded, "At this point, I didn't find much out of it...... I'm not very good friends with him, but I have some connections, and I don't know much about his personal life. ”

However, Lu Ming inexplicably remembered that Lu Mana, the little witch in his family, gritted her teeth when she talked about Lin Hai, and frowned again.

"But, I know...... The Assas family made a feud with Xia Ying because of his close proximity to him. ”

"Okay...... I understand. "At night, there is a bit of loneliness and spaciousness, and the beautiful girl in front of her has a heartbreaking and sad expression revealed between her eyebrows," At the Downing Street cocktail party, the kingdom idol Xia Ying proposed in person, which also made him the most suitable person to lead the army...... All eyes were on him, and he didn't refuse. ”

Lu Ming didn't say a word. This is no secret. In the eyes of many people, Xia Ying's actions are more like announcing the world. When it was first reported to the front line here, it was still very shocking, some people blessed from the bottom of their hearts, some people were silent, some people were opposed, but most people were very eager to see the two combined.

Thinking about it from this, when he heard the news, Nolan's body shook, and then returned to the camp to rest.

The woman in front of her forced a smile, her eyes full of sadness, "So, I am still too far away for you." That girl, it's just within reach...... Oh, that's good, imperial hero, national icon...... It's enviable......"

Lu Ming was startled, because she saw that the eyes of Her Royal Highness were already wet red, and the crystal water splashed between the delicate eyes.

He finally understood why Her Royal Highness looked Qingli recently, but she was a little thin and haggard.

"What else, I hope you can save your life and live a good life in the future......"

Lu Ming hurriedly said, "Your Royal Highness, there are many loyal knights by your side, we will be your staunch protectors, please take care of your health." ”

Nolan glanced at Lu Ming, and there was an indescribable sense of alienation and sadness in those eyes.

She looked up, her hair cascading down her ears and her shoulders as she stared at the starry sky and muttered to herself.

"No, you are the knights of the kingdom, the pillars of the protection of this country and its people."

"And my knight...... It's no longer there. ”
