Chapter 428: Come for me
At around one o'clock in the afternoon, the main mecha forces of both sides were active on the battlefield again, and the resistance still had no way to stop the advance of the empire, and as the occupied area became smaller and smaller, the disadvantage of the resistance army became more and more obvious.
While the battle of Pompeii was extremely fierce, the black triple stars of the desert between Cambeth and Pompeii were impatient.
According to Kai's estimates, the Resistance in Cambeth could not have watched Pompeii fall like this, so it was impossible for the twenty high-altitude mechized armors in Cambeth to be inactive. At the very least, they should be on the outskirts of Pompeii to help take some of the pressure off the defenders inside Pompeii.
But until this point, the horizon in the direction of Cambeth was still quiet, and not even a single truck, let alone a mech, had appeared.
"Captain, I don't think they're going to show up, so let's attack Cambeth." Matthew said as he chewed gum.
"Two points, let's finish replenishing the mecha energy, if the other party doesn't appear before this, let's attack Cambeth." Gaia said that in the original plan, Kai would send a supply convoy to replenish their mechs at about half past one, and at this time, their mechs on standby in the field had about half of the remaining energy, and half an hour was enough to fill their batteries.
"Understood."
At half past two in the afternoon, the armored forces led by the Black Triple Star launched an attack on Cambes, and by this time, a small part of Pompeii's city had fallen into the hands of the Empire.
"Let the 3rd Brigade of the Desert Division go to Cambeth to reinforce the Black Trifecta." After learning the news, Kai did not hesitate to draw out the only fully formed reserve team under his command. The 1st Brigade of the Desert Division was fighting on the front line, while the 3rd Brigade was withdrawn and repaired after losing nearly half of its losses.
The scales of war are tilting in favor of the Empire. With the decrease in the area of activity. Night's Reaper Cross could no longer avoid a head-on confrontation with the Imperial Mechs. The first to be hit hard was the Third Commando led by Jimmy. Four of their mechs were caught by an Imperial squadron, and although Jimmy gave the right order to retreat, two of the bears were destroyed. Lelena survived because she was the last of the commando guards, while Jimmy escaped because of the tiger's agility.
"Why haven't the ground personnel found some Imperial mechs inside?" Jimmy slammed the mech's control panel.
"Some of the Imperial mechs inside are hiding behind the building, and it makes sense that the ground personnel didn't see it." Lelina whispered.
"It's over, the instructor will definitely kill me this time."
"There is no way to do this, after all, the empire is deliberately ambushing. The instructor won't blame you. ”
Night did do the same as Lelena said, she didn't blame Jimmy, but just communicated the situation to Commando 3 to make them aware of the Empire's ambush, and then asked Jimmy to follow Dennis and them together.
"Instructor, the situation is quite bad." Looking at the two mecha in the distance, Wang Hui said to the night with a wry smile.
"It's not bad, it's pretty bad." Although the first commando team used the complex terrain and the Imperial mechs to hide and seek and kill the two mechs near the two battle lines, Shi's mecha was also hit by the Empire's particle rocket shooter in the leg joint and withdrew from the battle when crossing the Imperial battle line, if it were not for the timely launch of a wave of offensive by the Resistance infantry at that time. At this time, I am afraid that Shi is drinking tea in the temporary prisoner of war camp of the Empire.
"Well, there's not the slightest movement on Cambeth's side. It seems that the Imperial blockade is very tight, and we may not be able to get supplies from even a single bullet from the outside. ”
"Wang Hui, what I hope at this time is to be able to delay until the evening, so that we can take advantage of the night to retreat. The Imperial Pru may not have followed us with flares all the way. "Night plans to retreat at night, because it no longer makes sense to hold on to Pompeii, and Cambeth has not sent reinforcements so far, which shows that the Resistance is no longer able to maintain Pompeii's supplies, and if it continues to defend it, it will only be a dead end of ammunition and food, and Night will not bury the Reaper Cross in this dead end.
The Resistance commander also seemed to realize that Cambeth could not reinforce himself, in order to ease the pressure of the Reaper's Cross, and in order to prevent some of the heavy equipment that could not be easily transferred from falling into the hands of the Empire, he chose to send an artillery unit, which was originally intended to be used to snipe the Imperial artillery at night to relieve the pressure of the Imperial artillery on his side, but at this time, it was a question whether Pompey, who had lost the reinforcements, could hold out until night. The artillery began to enter the makeshift fortifications of the Resistance and await the arrival of the Imperial troops.
The entry of artillery eased the pressure on the infantry a lot, and the resistance line for a time supported the Empire's offensive, leaving the opponent with no way to push further. However, the Empire quickly figured out the position of the artillerymen, and in the attack tried to avoid the inner sections, using roundabout attacks to force the Resistance to abandon their positions.
By five o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was beginning to sink into the ground, the Resistance had lost nearly three-quarters of the city's control, their infantry units were physically and mentally exhausted, short of water and medicine, their artillery units had exhausted all their ammunition, and their mechs were alerted to low energy.
Night led the Reaper's Cross to quickly retreat to the fourth underground hangar, which was the only underground hangar of the Resistance in the southeast city, although its location was close to the edge of the city, which was very unsatisfactory, but Night could only take the mech there.
There were only three mechs that returned to the hangar that night, namely Wang Hui, Dennis and Lelina, Wang Hui and Dennis were the best pilots in the entire army, and Lelina was the luckiest pilot today, and her mecha suffered the smallest damage among the four.
If Lelina was lucky, Jimmy was the unlucky guy today. After receiving two blows from the Empire, his mech was hit in the shoulder during an encounter with the Empire after joining up with Commando 3, and the armor-piercing projectile was deflected by the armor force and stuck in the jetpack on his back. As Jimmy tries to use the ion jet engine to accelerate his retreat, the hazard erupts, blowing the tiger's back to pieces and leaving Jimmy unconscious. He became the first Resistance pilot to be arrested.
The bear pose of the original coloring is almost impossible to see under the night jump. Grab a glass of ice water from the ground crew. Raised his head and drank, and then looked around a little dazedly, and found that as long as he got off the mecha, he would come out of this moment and the Jonny beside him was gone, and he was a little worried that this straightforward black tall man pulled a ground staff member at night and asked, "Where is Jonny?" ”
"The battle on the front line is tense, and Chief Johnny has taken his troops to the N7 theater to help, sir."
"Oh." Night frowned, that area was the area that the Resistance leader Zakaev's guard battalion was responsible for defending. It's time for the Resistance to be the most combat-ready area.
Night in the hangar didn't know that the Imperial mech units hadn't returned to their hangar when they pulled down. The Imperial troops, who did not need to move as frequently as they did at night, saved nearly a quarter of the energy in the battle, enough energy for them to launch an offensive to capture the Resistance's strongest defensive zone, the location of the wartime headquarters, the N7 theater.
After taking a short break outside to prevent a possible surprise attack by the Empire, Night slipped headlong into the bear's cramped cockpit. On the side, Wang Hui and Lelina also entered their mechs and stood by, but the feisty Dennis was still sitting on the boxes piled up in the empty space of the hangar. Dangling his feet and drinking water.
While the Imperial forces were fighting in the N7 theater, the news came from Cambeth that boosted their morale, and the mobile troops led by the Black Triple Star had successfully captured most of the city of Cambes, and were expected to take the town of the Resistance at the same time as them.
The Black Trifecta themselves did not expect to be able to take Cambeth so smoothly, all thanks to the resistance mecha troops that did not appear, because without their interference, Gaia and they were able to tear down buildings into ruins with peace of mind.
"The Resistance mechs must have been terrified by us." Matthew said from his cockpit.
"The hell knows, anyway, just now the Prussian troops called, saying that they saw twenty mechs leaving Cambeth at high speed, which means that they have been there before, but they haven't fought with us, what you said may be very big, Matthew." Ordiga laughed too.
"But it's really boring, tearing down buildings until it's soft, if only the Resistance pilots had one-tenth the courage of their infantry."
"yes, that's going to make it enjoyable for us. However, it backfired, and we can only sit in the back bored. ”
"I don't know what Xiao Tian thinks, they are so keen on demolishing houses, do they think that if they demolish more houses, the Mecha troops of the Resistance Army will come out of the ruins like rats?"
"Hahaha, the Resistance and Boos pilots aren't even as good as rats."
Just when the two of them used all kinds of mocking language to describe the resistance and Buos pilots who collapsed without a fight, the imperial troops who attacked the resistance control area in the southwest of the city panicked, and the frightened voice of Oda Jiro, who was at the front of the team, came from the earphones of the three people, "In the southwest of the city, we found the resistance ****, repeat, we found the resistance ****, all the troops..."
A rocket slowly rose from the ground, and suddenly, the behemoth transformed into a dazzling, suspended sun, completely obscuring the afterglow of the setting sun, becoming a nightmare for the Imperial army in Cambeth.
In the tunnel leading to the fourth underground hangar in the N7 war zone, four jeeps are shuttling at high speed, and Jonny on the car is driving his car frantically, trying to get to the side of the night as quickly as possible. A few minutes ago, his subordinates overheard a communication from Cambes, which scared him on the spot, because in the communication, a member of the Zakaev guard battalion in Cambes mentioned four words and detonated ****. Combined with his previous conversations with some of the guards battalion soldiers, the other party revealed his confidence that he would definitely be able to wipe out the imperial troops, so that this tall black man did not doubt at all that these guard battalion soldiers must also have the weapons mentioned in the communication, ****.
"Haven't you been in touch yet?" Jonny anxiously urged Niems, who was sitting in his car.
"It's too much interference, sir, and our communicator is too small, damn it." Niemus was also sweating profusely, and he called again and again, but all that came from the communicator was a hissing sound of interference.
"Nims, send a communication from the public channel, so maybe the allies can help us get the message to the chief."
"Do it right away, Captain."
"This is the Independent Mobile Battalion, Battalion Commander Jonny. Captain Williams, inform all Resistance combatants that we have found a large equivalent **** in the N7 theater, repeat, we have found a large yield **** in the N7 theater, and all personnel will immediately and quickly evacuate Pompey, and all personnel, immediately evacuate Pompey. "Radio waves carried frightening messages over Pompeii.
The Resistance was momentarily confused, but the people soon came to their senses, and some of them chose to trust Jonny and his Lady Ameis's personal guard and quickly organize the evacuation of their personnel, while the rest chose to trust their new leader, because his guard battalion was still stationed in the N7 theater.
At the same time, in the underground bunker of Pompeii, the soldiers of the Zakaev guard battalion were reuniting beside their commander, and a high-power communication device transmitted the situation of Cambes, "Comrades, our comrades in Cambes have detonated the **** and completed the sacred mission entrusted to them by His Excellency Zakayev. Now, in order not to let the imperial army be guarded, in order not to let the blood of our soldiers before pass bye, I have decided that we will also complete our mission and immediately detonate our ****. ”
"Roar." The surrounding soldiers let out bloodthirsty roars, and as Zakaev's fanatical followers, they regarded that Mediterranean sacrifice as glory.
In the fourth hangar, the cables connected to the four mechs fell one after another, and the night who had completed the energy replenishment came to the ground of Pompeii again with the help of the elevator, and at this moment, a sense of ominousness flashed in the night's heart, and the night locked on to the ominous source, a rocket raised from the N7 war zone.
“****。” Night said unconsciously, his feelings told him that the thing that was rising was a superweapon that was banned by the Empire and the Federation in the Earth Treaty, ****.
"What. Instructor? Wang Hui didn't listen to Qingye's self-talk, and asked curiously about the night when he was suddenly stunned.
Wang Hui's words made Ye shudder, and he withdrew from his perceptual world, and immediately reminded: "****, all mechas, prepare for impact resistance." ”
“****? Instructor, what are you kidding? "Wang Hui thought that the night was joking, but a fireball erupted over the N7 war zone, and the blinding flash of light marked its extraordinary.
The fireball became brighter and brighter, and at the moment of reaching its peak, the heavens and the earth seemed to be stunned, and in an instant, the incomparable shock wave spread out from the N7 war zone with high temperatures, and swept the entire Pompeii at high speed.
The fireball swelled at an unimaginable speed and caught up with Pru, who was trying to escape from the air, and before the flames engulfed the planes, they were already hit by the EMP blast from the explosion, the electronic systems short-circuited out of control, and the ion engines exploded at full strength, tearing some of the unfortunate Prue to pieces. The engines of the remaining fighters were completely darkened, and they lost power and rolled helplessly in the violent air current, and then were enveloped in fireballs, becoming fireworks in the sky.
