Chapter 15 Walking on the Ice on

In the end, Leigh chose a small high ground 15 kilometers from the base as a sniper position. The high ground is only about 50 meters higher than the surrounding terrain, but it has a wide field of view, and if you set up a few guns here, you can control most of the area into the mountain. If you don't capture this place, if you want to get to the N69 base, you will either have to climb over the mountains at an altitude of 1,000 meters, or go around a large circle of dozens of kilometers to the south. Judging by the mobility and supply radius of the power mechs, this is already approaching the limit of their combat radius.

The only problem is that the high ground is not dangerous, and the defense does not have much of an advantage. But in Leigh's plan, this is just the right time to attract the Iron Gate to attack. She placed the main force on the high ground, leaving a small part in reserve, and set up an artillery position at the rear of the high ground, where she placed the only two small-caliber guns in her hand. In front of the power mech, these two cannons are actually not a threat at all, but they are still powerful against trucks and infantry. Moreover, even those with the ability of sixth-order defense would not be willing to be directly hit by small-caliber artillery.

Leigh commanded the mob of the newly surrendered to set up a makeshift position on the high ground overnight, and as the sky began to lighten, the rumbling smoke could already be seen at the end of her vision. Then several reconnaissance motorcycles rushed out of the morning fog and roared in a wild manner, until they reached a thousand meters before turning and driving sideways, shouting and cursing at the armed mob stationed on the high ground. These bikes have wide tires, machine guns or shotguns mounted on the sides, and they are quite powerful.

Li's fanfare of building fortifications on the high ground naturally could not hide it from the Iron Gate, and she did not intend to hide it, but prepared to completely annihilate the expeditionary force of the Steel Gate in front of this high ground. This force includes almost all of the elite of the Iron Gate, and if the Iron Gate is put back, it will be much more troublesome to start a street fight.

Scout motorcyclists roared to and fro in front of the high ground almost as if they were demonstrative, and the riders let go of their throats, laughing, swearing, and even firing at the high ground with their vehicle-mounted machine guns. Of course, at a distance of more than a kilometer, these bullets simply cannot hit the high ground. The knights are highly skilled and maneuverable, and the chances of an ordinary sniper trying to hit them are almost zero.

A bearded rider suddenly accelerated to the high ground, let go of his voice and shouted, "Hey! Turtles on the top of the mountain, give you a taste of this! ”

A cloud of smoke erupted from the back seat of the reconnaissance motorcycle, and a small missile took off into the air and flew towards the position on high ground. Although it is not known how powerful the warhead of this missile, which is less than a meter long, it can be seen from the flexible trajectory and obvious and precise guidance that it completely surpasses the scientific and technological level of the old era. And this thing can be installed on the butt of the reconnaissance motorcycle, which shows that the cost is low and it is a mass product.

Those who are very sensitive to arms, such as the three servants of the Soviet Union, all saw the military-industrial potential of the Steel Gate from this missile.

"This stuff is good!" Looking at the oncoming missiles, Rei was very appreciative.

"Well, there should be a very complete missile factory in place to produce this guy." Quinn said, and he didn't seem to see the destructive power of the missile at all.

For missiles, the distance of less than a kilometer can be said to be instantaneous. In fact, this kind of battlefield missile is extremely powerful, and it is not inferior to the power of heavy artillery, and it belongs to the heavy firepower of individual soldiers. That motorcycle rider didn't use this guy to make the fierce armed mob cry dad and mother. Unfortunately, he didn't know that the technological level of the Iron Gate was a full year behind the Dark Dragoon. And several commanders on the opposite high ground, not only the servants who escaped from the dark dragoons, but also had many standard equipment of the dragoons in their hands.

Then, a scene appeared that stunned all the scout knights who were still showing off their might.

A stream of bullets suddenly rose from the high ground, accurately met the speeding missile, and then blasted it in the air!

What is it! Exploding a missile with an assault rifle? Such a ridiculous idea was born in the minds of almost all the Scout Knights!

With a bang, a motorcycle lost its balance and fell to the ground. The Lost Knight rolled on the ground for more than a dozen laps before stopping, and the severe pain from multiple fractures made him just sigh and faint. The knights who were in conflict turned around and fled frantically towards the way they came! Maybe a normal sniper can't threaten them, but it shouldn't be difficult for a guy who can shoot missiles with a rifle to take them down.

Rigoray put down the assault rifle that was standard with the dragoon, and instead sat down on the gun emplacement, adjusted his shooting slightly, and fired at the reconnaissance motorcycle that was fleeing for his life.

Two seconds later, the shell landed in the center of the reconnaissance motorcycle group with great accuracy, and an unlucky guy was almost hit directly by the shell! The blast wave of the old howitzer overturned most of the motorcycles around them, and most of the riders could not survive in the high-speed driving process. With just one shot, Rigore sent four reconnaissance motorcycles, and only one guy barely managed to stabilize the motorcycle and accelerated to escape.

Looking at the reconnaissance motorcycle that was gone, Quinn, who was holding a sniper rifle, looked sorry: "It's a pity that a guy ran away, they should be much more careful now." If you suddenly come up with a few shots while they're charging, that's great! ”

"It's better to leave one to report the news, so that they don't dare to take a detour, and they can only take this place." Leigh interjected next to her.

Rigore, for his part, checked the cannon that had just been fired one last time to make sure it didn't break down in battle.

On the other side of the battlefield, Sue sat in the middle of a pile of rocks and watched the motorcycle go away. Medirri sat beside him with her knees crossed, her sword at her feet. She frowned and whispered, "I don't like these people. ”

If it was still in the time of the Inquisition, those who were unfortunately disliked by her would have had little to live. But she spoke in a tone and demeanor now, as if she hated something when she was a child.

With a buzz, a drone flew over Sue's head and flew off into the distance. Its wings are emblazoned with the Iron Gate logo, and it appears to be a reconnaissance drone for battlefield people. Although it was just a gesture to knock it down, Sue just watched it go away. Anyway, it is impossible for the drone to detect him.

The smoke and dust in the distance were getting closer and closer, and the roaring engine could already be heard far away, and the ground under his feet was trembling slightly. Dozens of trucks rushed out of the smoke and dust, large groups of heavily armed soldiers jumped out of the cabins, and more than a dozen power mechs also jumped out of the transport trucks.

General Schneider, who was already a little old, drove the power armor, came to the high ground, and observed the position set up by Li with a telescope for a while, before he said lightly: "This position is good, but this can't stop our power armor!" ”

On the high ground, Rei was also observing the army on the other side. Although she couldn't hear what Schneider was saying, just looking at his expression, Li could guess the other party's disdain and contempt. If it weren't for the contempt, it wouldn't have been so lightly launched to attack a well-constructed position.

"Rigore, do you see the guy over there? Looks like a big guy, and it's right within our range, so you can shoot him. Rei said to Rigore.

Rigoremer calculated the coordinates of the bearings and walked towards the gun position. Moments later, the dull sound of cannon reverberated over the high ground, and the grenade slammed down on Schneider's head with great precision.

The corners of Schneider's mouth rose slightly, revealing a sneer that was almost indiscible. His right arm was raised, and the cannon hanging on the outer arm of the power mecha suddenly roared, instantly forming a dense barrage in the air, and then a fireball exploded in mid-air, and the grenade was also exploded in the air!

The fiery air flow mixed with the smell of gunpowder smoke swept over Schneider, leaving a hint of war on that well-defined face.
