Chapter 418: The Trap Emerges

"I know, so many fireballs don't look like mushroom clouds, but I just feel the power of some explosions inside. I really don't know how the empire can detonate so many nights at the same time. ”

"I don't know, is it a self-detonation device?"

"The night that will blow itself up, good idea, why has no one wanted to think of such obscene attention since ancient times." Ye made a sudden realization expression, with a self-detonation device, he was not afraid that in the counteroffensive, he would accidentally injure his troops by the ground and night that he had planted in advance.

"Sometimes, the simpler something is, the more people can't think of it. At this point, the only thing to pray for is that the troops in front will not suffer heavy casualties. ”

"Aren't they on the opposite side of you?"

"Well, although they are radicals, Mrs. Arice has said that whether they are radicals or conservatives, everyone is part of the Resistance. They will always be our comrades-in-arms, unless they try to hurt Mrs. Emes. Jonny said with a firm face.

Night shrugged his shoulders helplessly in the cockpit, "It seems that the task given to him by Uncle Joga is not ordinarily arduous, it is not difficult to win over the people of the Resistance Army's pro-Federation position, the problem is that it is too difficult to get these people to join the Federation." After all, few of the Resistance dared to hurt Mrs. Emes. ”

Jonny's prayers seemed to have had a small effect, and none of the Resistance's fireless mechs entering the town, except for their captain, were seriously damaged, except for most of the mech's armor surfaces that had been smashed into countless small craters by shrapnel and building debris. And the most damaged mech, that is, the landline of Buos Shiranui Captain Bartrick, was only destroyed in the left wrist joint. The entire left leg is reimbursed. The chest mecha has a noticeable depression and needs to be replaced. The main body parts are not much damaged. The Resistance's most precious fighting power was not fatally dealt in this spectacular fireworks.

Compared with the mecha troops, the infantry units that went deep into the night area, especially the troops that attacked the imperial military camp, did not have such good luck, the assault team composed of more than 300 people of a battalion in the forward was knocked down in the attack of the metal storm, and the remaining people also suffered heavy losses under the double blow of the opponent's Vulcan cannon suppression and self-detonation buildings, and less than 30 people were able to evacuate the battlefield in the end. And on the flanks were responsible for the three companies of roundabout attacks. The team of about 200 people was also killed by the trap of the Empire, after all, it was a trap composed of dozens of individual cloud burst shells, and this terrifying power was not something that human flesh and blood could resist.

And the engineer units of the Resistance Army, also lost nearly a third, these people who are clearing the night, did not expect these nights to blow themselves up, without regular explosion-proof clothing, they are so vulnerable in the face of the night, but then again, they are wearing the federal system of anti-explosion clothing. It's also impossible to resist the power of the anti-mecha nights, which are designed to take down the Iron Giants, who are ten times larger than humans.

The fireworks threw the Resistance frontline troops into chaos. The imperial commander who was looking at the smoke of Campes in the sand dunes in the distance shook his head a little regretfully, and said to himself: "I didn't expect the Resistance to be so strongly supported by Buos, and there are so many mechas, which is unexpected." ”

The adjutant on one side said with pity on his face: "Our booking target, this time it is really disappointing that we are only guarding the supply convoy in the rear." Originally, the plan was to lure the Resistance mechs into Campes, and then use large-scale explosives to create chaos and create an opportunity for our troops to ambush. But the Mecha Force of the Resistance at this time is not something we can destroy. ”

The lieutenant general commander also looked at a commando mecha behind him that was on standby with a look of pity, and sighed a little disappointed: "I could have used the superior mecha troops to attack the enemy forces in the chaos to achieve the minimum loss." At this time, the Mecha troops of the Resistance Army have almost one more squadron than us, and they are still using Shiranui with better performance than the Bear Style, so it would be nice if they had one less squadron. I can still bear that level of loss, but if we attack at this time, the probability of our total destruction is too high. ”

"Yes." The adjutant took the telescope handed to him by the lieutenant general and carefully put it into the package.

"Inform the Prussian troops, the plan has changed, and we won't go to Cambeth, we don't need their assistance. Let them bypass Cambeth when attacking, and directly attack the supply convoy and helicopter formation in the enemy's rear, and take it when they see it. There are too many mechs in the city, and the terrain is not conducive to their attacks. Mecha troops and longbow troops retreated. The lieutenant general began to give orders, and although his carefully laid out plan was aborted due to intelligence errors, he decisively decided to retreat.

"Understood, sir."

"Damn, incompetent intelligence for sacrificing a platoon of soldiers for nothing." The lieutenant general cursed under his breath as he boarded his jeep. His heart was full of anger, although he had already formulated this trap-like defensive counterattack plan when he was stationed in Cambeth, but the intelligence department did not find out the number of Mecha of the Resistance when the Federation notified it that there were Buos's mecha troops stationed in the Resistance, and even did not give any warning of the other party's attack on Cambeth. If he has enough time, the lieutenant general can confidently mobilize a commando mecha as a reserve, unlike at this time, he can only rely on one of his own commando mechs. For such a long time, the covert work done by his own troops has made some of the resistance forces think that Cambeth only has a squadron of mechs, and the deception has been wasted. Thinking that his efforts were in vain, the lieutenant general couldn't help but punch the dashboard hard.

Compared to the retreat of the commander of the Imperial Army, Night was in trouble, and thirty black dots appeared in the sky for Night's monitor to capture, which made this ace who had been fighting under the cover of a powerful air force experience the Empire's helplessness against the Federation at the beginning.

"Enemy Pru, a commando, is coming at us." Jonny also spotted the Imperial Fighter Troop and shouted.

"It's for supply teams and helicopter formations." Night was the famous fighter ACE before becoming a mecha ACE, and knowing that the fighter in the atmosphere could hardly do any damage to the mecha, he immediately judged the real target of the opponent's attack.

"This is the moose troops, let's retreat first. These particle-propelled fighters are not something we can fight. "The commander of the moose quickly gave the order to retreat. The helicopter that had been hovering over the supply convoy flashed clean in an instant. It makes Ye think that they didn't just use a turbine engine to drive the propellers, but they must also have a jet engine installed next to the helicopter to make it easier to escape at such a time.

"This is a supply convoy, what should we do?" The Resistance supply team has never encountered such a situation, and in peacetime, the Resistance fights, and it is the infantry who bring their own supplies. This time, they came to the rear of the battlefield, mainly to provide support for the main attack mecha troops, these people who had never been out of the Gobi in normal times faced the Imperial Air Force units in the vast desert. I panicked too.

"Do your best to avoid and seek protection from the mech." I don't know what to do at night. In the past, when I was in the Federation, how could an Imperial fighter dare to fly over the Federation's supply team. Moreover, the Resistance supply team uses cheap civilian trucks as transport vehicles, you must know that the top armor of transport vehicles used by the Federation, equipped with super-tension ceramic composite steel armor, may not be able to fully withstand the attack of 30mm armor-piercing shells in the air, these civilian trucks are simply the representative of being shot and hanging in the eyes of the night, these vehicles without a little armor, if they want to protect thoroughly, this is not generally high.

"Bear, anti-air attack. The missile is set to airburst mode and launched. "Wang Hui commanded the bear-like troops. Attacking Pru, who was approaching, the missiles that had been set up with a simple airburst flew out of the missile compartments in the bear's legs, after which they were abandoned by the bear and smashed heavily into the sand.

"Transport vehicles, low-altitude smoke grenades, high-density casting, don't let the smoke cover up the monitors of our mechs." Jonny had experience fighting the Imperial Air Force on flat ground.

The missiles flew crookedly towards the group of fighters, and they had no firepower density at all left in the attack to find the enemy, and the air burst parameters set at hand were not quite correct. The missiles exploded in front of the Prussian fighter plane, forming a spark.

However, the experience of the Imperial Flying Corps was not very rich, and some fighters left their flight formations like frightened birds, and suddenly messed up the formation of the Imperial fighters.

"Attention all mechas, the other party is a rookie, this time it should be a practice of mecha anti-air combat, replace the shotgun magazine with a shotgun, that thing is easy to use as a fighter." The night is very shrewd, and the other party's action can make the night get a lot of information.

The three Bears began to replace their magazines, a number that was a bit low for Night's expectations, but there was no way around it. Shotguns are only produced by the Empire, and the Federation mechs are all defended by using a 30mm close-in defense gun on the head of their own mech. So among the federally funded supplies, there are only armor-piercing shells used by mechs, and there are no anti-air shotguns. The bear-like shotguns were snatched from the Empire's warehouses by their warriors, and some of the few shotguns stocked in the Resistance's warehouses.

At this time, I experienced the frustration of the Imperial pilots using 120mm machine guns to attack the Federation fighters, but thankfully, the machine guns of the mechs were very good at continuous fire, and a dense network of fire formed over the sixteen mechs, and accurately tore through three Pru.

However, three Pru was still too small for the entire Pru group that began to dive, and these scattered fighters began to attack from different angles, seriously dispersing the anti-aircraft fire of the mechs, so that Ye had to order the mechs to defend as a commando unit.

"Commander Pru is a veteran." Night sighed with emotion, how nice it would be if the other party carried out a concentrated dive like when attacking the 209 transit base. That kind of rookie behavior of grabbing merit, it seems that it will not happen in this battle.

Compared to the depression of the night, the commander of the other side Pru was also quite uncomfortable, at this time the supply convoys of the resistance army were hiding in the smoke, which made their attack almost rely on the blind, although in these smokes, five large fireballs were raised, but they also lost three fighters, this loss was too great in his opinion. And their other target, the resistance helicopter formation, was at full power at this time, and fled far away.

"Damn, retreat, we can't accurately attack some of the vehicles inside in the smoke." Seeing that he could not make any gains, and that the enemy's air defense network was beginning to form an effective organization, the Pru commander decisively ordered a retreat.

"Whew." They took a breath at night, knowing that three of the three enemy planes shot down before were shot down by shotguns, and at this time, there were not many of the three Bear shotguns left.

"I can be considered to have escaped." Wang Hui was a little glad that the bullets from the machine gun in his hand didn't even touch the edge of a Pru.

"Well, but it's really hard to use this thing to fight planes, it's still refreshing to come from close defense guns, woo, and the butt of a fighter plane will smoke." Night shook the 120mm machine gun in his hand, he was the only one of the Pru who had succeeded in attacking Pru with armor-piercing shells, but he still missed the weapons on the Rangers and Immortal's heads, even though he had never used them to fight a warplane.

The Resistance succeeded in recovering Cambes, giving the Empire a clear goal while capturing a town for themselves. Imperial fighters began to conduct high-density reconnaissance missions over Cambeth, and without the suppression of Union fighters, they experienced the thrill of air strikes in the Resistance.

Although the Prussian fighter cannot carry a large number of missiles or heavy aerial bombs, there is no problem with hanging three small thermal missiles under its wings. These Imperial Kingfisher short-range aerial combat missiles and Pelican anti-tank missiles can easily capture the massive thermal energy emitted by the engines of the Resistance's helicopter and tank units.

In the skies of Cambes, there are Imperial warplanes hovering at every moment, these Pru blockade Cambes, attacking all Resistance helicopters, tanks, jeeps, and even soldiers who dare to leave the protection of Cambeth's ground anti-aircraft artillery.

"Damn, the Empire is using the Resistance to practice the Air Force's ground combat capabilities." Once again, escorting the convoy to the night of Cambeth, he looked at the six small black dots in the sky and complained. In order to ensure their own transportation lines, the Resistance can only use mechs to escort operations, and this kind of drudgery is naturally done by the Hades Cross, where the night is located.

However, one thing is to be thankful, Buos has sent a large number of mechs with 120mm shotguns in his own support materials. It seems that the Buos military still has little confidence in the mecha to rely only on the three close-in defense guns in the head for air defense, so their mecha ammunition production line has a shotgun production line that the Federation does not have.

The arrival of these shotguns also had to be thanks to the strong efforts of Captain Bartrick, the leader of the Boos pilot, because this hapless guy's mech needed to be returned to the Resistance Gobi hangar for repairs, so the captain who made his mech the most seriously damaged in the attack on Cambeth returned with the convoy carrying his mech.
