Chapter 380: The Power of Terror

Night pulled the trigger again the moment the second armor-piercing bullet was loaded into the chamber, just as the prompt sounded. The tank shook again, and a second armor-piercing projectile whistled out of the muzzle and flew towards the target.

The first armor-piercing bullet hit the center of the shield under the careful aiming of the night, that is, the position of the mecha's chest, and the powerful armor-piercing bullet directly tore through the defense of the first two shields, and left a terrifying crater on the last third shield, judging from the hole in the middle of the crater, the most powerful warhead still partially penetrated the shield, leaving a bullet hole with a diameter of about ten mm.

The accuracy of the second armor-piercing bullet deviated slightly, and according to the extremely high magnification surveillance sight, the night was aimed at the middle of the shield, where the mecha's head monitor was placed. However, the huge recoil generated by the first shot affected this shot, so that the bullet hit the upper right part of the shield, and the huge impact force directly knocked the shield out of the vertical target machine, and only the reason why the first two shields of the third shield deflected the shell did not let the hit fly.

"The power of the onslaught." After Chen and Dees finished the test shot at night, they came to the shield that Jean had knocked down, and Chen held a video camera in his hand, which was responsible for transmitting the image of the shield to Yena.

Night also stunned the appearance of the shield, the first shield suffered the most damage, the first cannonball made a large hole in the middle of this federal standard tower shield, the middle of the front shield was only connected by a dozen centimeters of armor on the edge, and the second cannonball that followed carried the upper part of the shield away, and the whole shield made the two shots into two pieces. The other two shields, although not as exaggerated as the first one, were also badly damaged.

It's terrifying. There was only this thought in the minds of those present.

After testing the sniper, the night began to follow his own shooting records. With Chen's help. Adjust the anti-recoil damper of the chariot. The huge machine needs to be adjusted by lifting the armor plate, but fortunately there is a special adjustment workshop at the shooting range, otherwise the vehicle will have to be driven back to the Tris base for adjustment at night.

The huge workshop was unusually hot, and the smell of oil, rust and musty air when it first opened almost suffocated the night by the door. The workshop has not been used since the Federals took over from the New London Star Force. The reason why the close-range fire weapons used by the mechs can be adjusted in their own hangars, and the long-range live ammunition weapons produced by the federal family. For example, the 180mm sniper rifle is carefully tuned by technicians in the factory, and the smaller caliber does not need to change the damper settings when in use, only need to be controlled by the software, which can perfectly offset the not powerful, not continuous recoil, and those tuned data are also stored in the mecha, any federal mecha as long as they use these long-range live ammunition weapons, they can call up the relevant data load from their computers, and they can control and use the weapon well.

But the 480mm gun installed on the King of the Land is different. As an empire-made vehicle, the Federation still has very little data on its performance. In particular, its main armament, the 480mm sniper. As a giant cannon that the Federation has never had, the Federation has almost no information on this caliber weapon, and the Empire does not seem to have made fine adjustments to this cannon. As a result, Ye and Chen did not have any other information to assist them in adjusting the crosshairs of the giant cannon, and could only rely on the most primitive method to make fine adjustments, that is, live ammunition test firing, and then adjust according to the test firing results.

The silver chariot slowly entered the workshop under the drive of old Des. The old man could not resist the temptation of the king of the land, and begged for a chance to touch his favorite tank lever again. This tank, even if the people in the military department classified it as a mecha, in the eyes of the old man, it was a tank, an enlarged version of the king of the land he had been driving before, the tank.

According to Night's habits, once he identifies his own things, he will never let others touch them casually, but this Land King has only been in the hands of Night for a few hours, and Night, who has no feelings for the mecha made by the Empire, will not show a strong possessiveness of this chariot. If it is replaced by a thunderbolt, it is estimated that the night will not even let the old Dis enter the control room, the thunderbolt is a gift from Alicia to the night, when on the Rogilas, even the maintenance personnel, in addition to normal inspection and maintenance, without the permission of the night, do not dare to touch the thunderbolt fire casually. It is simply impossible to disassemble the armor of the Thunderbolt to see the internal structure, and to enter the control room to see the internal layout.

"It's perfect." The old Dice who ran out of the control room to turn on the power supply in the workshop kept nagging these five words, and it was obvious that this imperial product was still very attractive to the old man.

Under Chen's control, the huge mechanical arm deftly removed part of the armor behind the King of Land Cannon, revealing the components of the recoil damper inside. Old Dice was the first to jump into the chariot and walk to the damper.

"When the damper makes the barrel quickly return to position, it makes the barrel deflect to the right, hehe, it's easy to do." Old Dice seemed to be muttering to himself.

Ye also wanted to go up to see the damper of this chariot, the reason why it had to absorb the recoil of such a huge caliber gun, this damper must be a big guy that Ye had never seen before.

So, two people squatted down next to the bare damper of the chariot, one admiring it with an insider's eye, and the other admiring it with an outsider's eye.

Chen, who was sitting in the control position of the mechanical arm, saw that the two of them were around the damper and did not speak, and he shouted dissatisfiedly: "I said old Dice, hurry up and adjust, or you can make way for my mechanical arm, I will adjust it myself, don't stand in front of my mechanical arm." This tank will be used tomorrow, and time is tight. ”

Chen Ke didn't dare to complain about the night, although the night was kind to the maintenance personnel, but the official rank of the night was there after all. For the rearmament personnel who were only colonels at the highest military rank, Ye was now a whole rank higher than them, not to mention Chen, who was only a second lieutenant.

"Got it." Old Dees agreed while still stroking the huge structure of the damper, as if he was caressing his own children.

After a while. The old man raised his head and said to the night, "Young man." Are you worried about leaving this tank to me to tune? I promise you. I'll get him in the best shape possible. ”

Ye raised his eyes and looked at the old man in some surprise, knowing that most of the initial adjustment of weapons was personally participated in by the pilot, and now Old Dis obviously wanted him to complete the initial adjustment of this sniper gun. The lazy, trouble-fearing personality of the night and the fact that he didn't have much affection for this chariot actually made the night nod and agreed to the old dish's request.

The old man looked up at the night in disbelief, in fact, when old Dis made that request. The old man regretted it a little, the reason why this request was so rude.

Seeing the old man's eyebrows, Ye patted the chariot and explained lightly: "This guy killed Ron, my former comrade-in-arms." ”

"Ron? Captain of the Skull Commando, Ron? The old man's eyes became even more astonished.

"Yes." Night nodded, "I didn't have a good impression of this chariot after experiencing the initial curiosity, but now that my Thunderbolt is broken, I can't use other pilots' mechs." So now that's all I have to use, hehe. I had to go to the front line, I thought I could rest for a while when the thunderbolt fire broke. ”

Old Dis raised his eyes and looked at the night, and said slowly: "Isn't this tank badly designed?" ”

Night shook her head.

"Then why don't you have a crush on it?" The old man said with some excitement.

Ye said lightly: "Purely from the design aspect, I like this chariot very much, I like its firepower, the kind of powerful power that can break the enemy with one blow." But I can't let go of the fact that this chariot killed my comrade-in-arms, whom I hadn't seen for half a year, and killed him in the back. ”

Old Dis calmed down after hearing Ye's words, and said, "You shouldn't be grudge against weapons, you should be against the Imperial pilot who killed Ron, and against all the Imperial soldiers." Weapons are innocent, it is people who make and use them, and they will only cause harm to you if someone uses them. ”

"I know what you say, old man." Ye said silently, "But the feeling of losing a comrade-in-arms cannot be calmed down in a day or two." And I'm lazy, so I'll leave this tuning job to you with experience. ”

Night patted old Dis on the shoulder, climbed out of the chariot, it was time to find a place to sleep, last night I made a noise until late to fall asleep, this morning I woke up too early, and now I desperately want to find a good place to supplement my sleep.

Seeing that Chen walked into the back of the workshop at night, he couldn't help but ask the old Dice through the wireless headset: "Dice, don't you participate in the tuning work at night?" ”

The old man nodded and said, "I'll do the tuning of this tank, hehe, that young man is still a little worried about his comrades dying under this tank, but I can see that this little guy still likes this king of the land very much." ”

When Chen heard Old Des call Ye, he immediately said, "Dees, do you know who that special major is?" Night. Huaxia, the first trump card of our Federation, please don't call him a teenager, a little guy or anything like that, okay? I want to use these words, at least add his name in front of it, and it seems intimate. ”

"Huh." Old Dice was happy when he heard Chen's words, "I naturally know who he is, his propaganda posters have been plastered all over the Federation, how can I not know it." I could tell from the look in his eyes that this guy was definitely a natural warrior, but too young. He actually put all the hatred he had for killing Ron on this tank, alas, in this case, he couldn't use this big guy well. ”

Chen was stunned and said, "Des, I'm afraid you don't know the relationship between Night and Ron." ”

Dice was also stunned, and said, "You know, isn't it just that with that skeleton commando captain, who served on the Rogeras, the flagship of the original Elite Thirteenth Fleet." ”

Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "Old Des, old Des, you only know one and don't know the other." Rogilas participated in the Battle of Odessa, right? ”

Dice bowed slightly, and added, "Well, that battle was the worst cosmic battle that our Federation lost. ”

"In that battle, the elite thirteenth fleet returned with two warships, one of which was the flagship Rogeras, and only four of the twelve elite pilots on that battleship returned. Now the captain of the Iron Commando, Cologne, the captain of the Grim Reaper Commando, Night, Ann who planned the Critical Point Battle of the Critical Point, and the other is Ron, our skeleton commando. Chen sighed, he understood the kind of friendship that was cultivated between comrades-in-arms after nine deaths.

"Really? Hehe, then he does have a reason to be sad. The old man's voice also lowered, but he still said stubbornly, "But no matter how sad you are, you can't put hatred on weapons, this is disrespectful to this tank, and it is a blasphemy against this tank." ”

"Dead old man, I repeat, this is not a tank, this is a mech." Chen knew about Dies's stubbornness, so he could only divert the topic.

"Tell you, Chen, this is a tank, the greatest land king in history, not your favorite mecha, don't fool me." Dice pointed to the king of the land and said solemnly.

When Chen Shao woke up that night, the sky had already begun to darken, and he had slept for eight hours in the night, and it was now six o'clock in the evening.

"Hmm, Chen, that's it?" Night yawned loudly.

Chen nodded and said: "Well, it's all done, to ensure the accuracy of the three shots, due to the problem of time, if there are more, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

Ye nodded and said, "It's okay, it's okay." Three shots in a row is enough to ensure accuracy, I don't have the ability to aim at four enemies in a row, that kind of thing is not done by people. ”

The silver chariot said goodbye to the Tris mecha test site and headed for Tris. Tomorrow, it will join the Federation forces in preparing for the Raid on Hot Sands, attacking the Empire's defenses in Tyrald.

In the Tris base, the mecha units have already begun to set off, these troops are attacking the imperial defense line from the flank, due to the long distance, these mecha units that want to join the frontline base troops on time must set off at night in order to catch up on time. It's really hard for these pilots from the north, who have just arrived in the desert for a day, and have not yet adapted to the desert climate, and they are about to set off to participate in the operation again. On the contrary, their mecha has all been installed with anti-sand nets, so they will not be unable to adapt to the environment full of yellow sand and get desert diseases. (To be continued......)
