Chapter 42: Deadly Air Raid (I)

Sitting in the cabin of the transport plane, Robin let out a long breath and looked guiltily at Colin, who was pale from blood loss.

"You say...... Am I being too stubborn? Actually, Claude is right, maybe I don't need to blow up any more hangars......"

Seeing Robin's hesitation, Colin smiled weakly, and suddenly said pointedly: "Article 4 of the Soldier's Regulations: Don't hide in the same foxhole with your braver comrades. ”

"Then ......" Robin understood what Colin was referring to, looked back at Lee and Aven, who were also tired, and sighed, "Maybe I should really jump off the plane now and sleep here." I'm not a savior, and it's not my responsibility to win this war......"

"Yes, but because of you, we have won many wars." Colin is accustomed to throwing a sobering candy in his mouth, and said vaguely: "For the Federal Army, you are the butterfly that brings them bad luck, as long as you flap your wings, the Federal Army can always cause a big earthquake." ”

"Butterflies?"

Colin's strange analogy made Robin burst out laughing.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, Colin's words are really not wrong. If he hadn't joined the army two years ago, he wouldn't have been able to participate in the Battle of Charon, and without him, Albert's plan as a traitor to the Republic would have succeeded, and the Republic would have faced a crushing defeat on Charon. In addition, if he had not been transferred to the infantry of the aviation Marine Corps of the TR-735 ship, then the transport formation of the Republic would not be spared, and there would be more than 400 more Federation Army hoplites on the Pluto battlefield. Now, if he hadn't agreed to Colonel Achill's participation in this mission, then Area 94 might not have fallen, and the Sarma Army Base would have been well guarded by the Union Army.

Looking at it this way, it seems that all the changes in the battle situation have been changed by the arrival of his little butterfly. And the further ripple effects of these changes may lead to the course of the entire war.

“……”

This sudden thought flashed through his mind made Robin stunned for a moment, he looked at Colin blankly, and muttered, "Colin, you suddenly make me feel as if I have become a very important person, and I am no different from a savior." ”

"Hehe, I just realized that too. Before you know it, I have accomplished so many miracles with you. Tut-tut...... Decide the outcome of an all-out war...... Just thinking about it makes people's blood boil. Would you miss such an opportunity? Colin smiled at Robin.

“……”

Robin pursed his lips and didn't speak, but he knew in his heart that if he chose to jump off the plane and abandon this mission now, he would definitely regret it one day in the future.

Seeing Robin's struggling silence, Colin preemptively replied, "Hehe...... Anyway, I will regret it, I missed such a big event, and I didn't do anything in such a big era, I didn't come to be a soldier for this. ”

"Colin is right, now is an opportunity to be a hero, why should we miss it?" Li in the back row roared excitedly: "We are an all-powerful special combat team, nothing can stop us!" ~”

“……”

Seeing Lee and Colin high-five and cheer excitedly, Robin smiled helplessly, but the hesitation and hesitation in his heart were also swept away.

"Colin, you've just soaked in the ecological tank, if you don't want me to drop the plane and soak in the fish tank, you can stay quiet for me for a while." Robin pressed Colin into his seat and shouted to Angus in the cockpit, "Hey, are you sure you're okay?" Claude still has a pilot there, and if you can't, say it sooner, and I can still change people. ”

"Hi Hi! ~ Don't call me so incompetent, I promise to let you arrive safely this time. Angus looked back while chewing gum: "By the way, how did you come up with such an exciting flight?" I've never been so crazy about playing games. ”

"If you stay with him for a long time, you'll think it's not too crazy." Li fastened his seatbelt and said with a smile: "This guy is a crazy person in the first place. ”

"Alright, shut up and get ready to go! ~”

Robin glared at Lee and shouted at Claude, who was standing on the tarmac, using the communication in the cabin, "The strategic missile is ready for launch." ”

On the tarmac, Claude apparently hesitated after hearing Robin's words, but finally made an OK gesture and gave an order to an officer next to him.

As the order was issued, the staff in the main control room who controlled the base's radar system and long-range firepower immediately became busy, and immediately, rows of missile launch ports rose from the base, and the entire base began to sound the countdown to missile launches for a few seconds.

The Sarma Army Base is equipped with 58 medium-range strategic cruise missiles with a range of 200 to 28,000 kilometers, which can directly threaten the headquarters of the Republic Army in Stan City, or strike the Republican spaceships that pass through the atmosphere from outer space. In addition to strike deterrence, strategic cruise missiles from the Sarma Army Base can also serve as an interception defense against a direct attack by the headquarters of the Federal Army from the Republic's long-range missiles.

After the Sarma Army Base was occupied by Robin, Colin immediately gained control of these strategic cruise missiles, and planned with Robin to consume twenty of them in the next operation.

With the activation of the twenty cruise missiles, Angus, the pilot who was originally smiling, immediately became solemn, he held the propulsion lever of the plane hard, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and stared at the arc-shaped sky dome that was gradually opening.

Suddenly, at the moment when the countdown seconds went to zero, twenty cruise missiles spewed out a piercing tail flame, and they took off into the air in an instant. At the same time, Angus pushed the propeller to the end.

I saw that the small transport plane, which was originally humming sound, suddenly rose into the sky, swung its wings at a dizzying speed, miraculously passed sideways through the apron sky that had just opened a gap, and plunged headlong into the thick smoke formed by the tail flame spray of 20 cruise missiles.

On the ground, Claude and many officers and ground crews were staggered by the sudden air current, and they sat on the ground and looked at each other.

They never thought that Robin would leave the base in such a desperate way, just now, Robin's plane was almost hitting the sky on the tarmac. This explosive instantaneous acceleration, as long as there is a 0.1 second error, all Claude has to do is collect the body for Robin and them.

"Crazy, all crazy! ~”

After a long silence, Claude suddenly cursed angrily, clutched his heart that was almost stopping, and stumbled towards the main control room of the base.

At the same time, twenty-one red warning points suddenly lit up on the satellite radar of the air defense base of the Federal Army. Suddenly, the sirens of the entire federal army air defense base sounded suddenly.

"What's going on?"

The image of the commander-in-chief of the air defense base of the Federal Army instantly appeared on the computer screen next to the radar, and the gray-faced radar soldiers on the side hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"Twenty-one strategic cruise missiles were reported from the Sarma army base, targeting our headquarters. The model is preliminarily estimated to be a Trident-6 multi-warhead strategic cruise missile with a speed of Mach 5 and is expected to arrive in 3 minutes and 45 seconds. ”

"Those stupid Republic POWs want to demonstrate to us? Intercept, intercept now! ~"The commander-in-chief of the Federal Air Defense Base in the image roared in frustration.

After the order of the commander-in-chief of the air defense of the Federal Army was issued, the ground of the air defense base located behind the headquarters of the Federal Army suddenly opened, and then rows of missile launchers rose from it like honeycombs.

After a few seconds to 10, nearly 60 interceptor missiles were fired into the air like arrows. After turning around through the guidance system in mid-air, it turned into points of light on the dark night, directly facing the direction where Robin was.
