543 Offense (2)
The ice melted by the high temperature also forms a string of puddles, and because there is no atmosphere, the liquid exposed to the vacuum immediately boils.
Taking advantage of the fog wall blocking the view, hundreds of alliance fighters jumped out of cover and rushed towards the ghost star base, and He Jun and the others also rushed up, and in the process of charging, they widened the distance and took turns to cover forward.
But despite the boiling of the liquid, Eris has no atmosphere, no matter how light the vapor is, and no atmospheric buoyancy sends them into the air, but is firmly bound to the surface by gravity, and does not form a rising wall of fog as planned.
Moreover, the violent boiling took away a lot of heat, and the molten liquid re-solidified in a very short time, leaving only a row of ice pits of varying depths.
The wall of fog appeared and disappeared quickly, and there was still no movement in the ghost base.
The strange situation alerted the commander on the scene, and the captain, who did not know which team he was from, decisively ordered the attacking troops to stop advancing and start another round of attacks with armor-piercing shells.
The soldiers carrying armor-piercing shells, regardless of the bullets and shells, fired at the same time, digging holes of different sizes in the outer wall of the base, and even He Jun had a lively time with a shotgun, but it was still useless, and there was still no movement in the base.
A shadow cast on everyone's minds.
It's not surprising that the ghost star people fight back with all their might, everyone can fight with real knives and guns, but this is all on the door, obviously they should be desperate, but the ghost star people are as deaf and blind as they don't care, what kind of situation is this?
The cautious captain always felt that something was wrong, and after discussing it with a few people, he contacted the fleet to explain the situation. Request to abandon the offensive plan.
However, the fleet believes that the Ghost Star Base is not responding because of excessive losses in previous battles. And there are already troops from other directions that have attacked the ghost base without encountering any resistance. Therefore, it was considered that the captain was too cautious, and ordered the captain to attack immediately.
The captain's answer surprised the captain, and although he was reluctant, he could only inform everyone of what he had learned, and then give the order to attack again.
The hundreds of people who had lurked attacked again, and several people in Susie's group were also caught in the tide of attack, but He Jun tried his best to adhere to the principle of covering the advance, although Susie didn't believe in any hellish sixth sense, but after all, she had personally experienced the landing craft fall. So I agreed to He Jun's request.
The vanguard crossed the ice crater and easily approached the Ghost Star base, less than thirty meters from the outer wall of the base. At this moment, a beam of light suddenly shot out from the Ghost Star Base, and the sweeping beam was unblocked, cutting off more than a dozen warriors who could not dodge.
The armor, which was also cut in two, immediately initiated an emergency medical procedure, injecting various life-sustaining drugs into the seriously wounded, and the armor fracture spewed a large amount of foam, sealing the breach in a very short time.
However, it takes time for the foam to solidify. Many people's internal organs flowed out of the fracture, and the blood sprayed dozens of meters away was still in the air, and it turned into a boiling blood mist due to the low pressure.
At this time, it happened to be He Jun's turn to move forward, and at the same time as he saw the beam of light out of the corner of his eye. Instinctively, he controlled his body to jump with all his strength, and the whole person was lying in the air in mid-air, reducing the area of the enemy to a minimum.
The beam swept right underneath him. If his reaction was a little slower, he would have been cut in half on the spot.
Another beam swept through. He Jun landed just as he landed, and the beam of light swept over his head again.
"Lao He—"
"Brother Jun—"
"He Jun—"
Several different voices exploded in the communication at the same time. He Jun rolled over and hid behind a raised block of ice: "I'm fine!" ”
"Everybody stand still!" Susie hurriedly let out an afterthought,
He Jun turned sideways and peeked forward, only to see that the soldier who rushed to the front fell to the ground, and in just one breath, the stump and broken arm were spread on the ground, and the seriously injured who were swept by the beam of light were all up to luck.
The soldiers who were not swept by the beam split into two waves, and those close to the outer wall of the base rushed forward like crazy, hoping to rush to the foot of the wall to avoid the fire of the ghosts; The soldiers who were a little farther away looked for cover, and the row of ice pits was particularly popular, and a group of people jumped down like dumplings, if the capacity of the ice pit was not enough, a group of people had to fill the ice pit with a few handfuls.
Presumably, the warrior who jumped down first was now unable to move by his comrades, but fortunately, everyone was wearing power armor and there would be no stampede.
I don't know why, He Jun suddenly remembered the stall robbery scene in the movie "Saving Private Two Ryan".
The captain immediately informed the fleet of the situation, and learned that the ghost star people at Base 5 had counterattacked, and the fleet was not surprised, and immediately ordered the troops to continue the attack, and Base 5 must be taken!
The captain did not understand the order to attack, but could not resist the command of the fleet.
He immediately ordered the firefighters and snipers to clear the enemy's exposed fire points at fixed points, and at the same time asked the fleet to release smoke grenades to cover the attack.
More than ten seconds later, a missile fell from the sky and exploded over the No. 5 base, billowing thick smoke falling from the sky, enveloping most of the base, turning everyone's vision into a fog.
It is said that only a smoke wall needs to be laid in front of the attacking troops, but the coalition forces did not realize that there was still a place to use smoke bombs in this battle before the war, and they did not prepare this thing at all, but fortunately, there are large smoke bombs used in space warfare on the battleship, and it is okay to use them without fish and shrimp.
The special smoke grenades can not only block radar waves, but also thermal imaging can not penetrate the smoke, not only the vision of both the enemy and the enemy is affected, but the wireless communication is also devastated, and everyone's radar is full of clutter.
But in any case, it is also a weapon released by humans, and the alliance army has already had a response plan, directly using the ultrasonic detection equipment on the armor to detect the surrounding environment by using bats.
Although the ultrasound is also affected by smoke, the detection range is limited, and the feedback image is still a simple line, but it is enough to deal with the situation in front of you.
The captain knew that the smoke grenade would not last too long, so he decisively ordered the troops to press on it in an all-round way, and even the firefighters and snipers who were originally carrying out the covering task rushed out of the cover and pressed on it in an all-round way.
In the face of the unfavorable situation, the beam density of the ghost star is unprecedented, blindly sweeping through the smoke repeatedly, and I don't know how many people have become dead rats who hit the blind cat.
By the time the smoke had cleared, all the living warriors had rushed under the outer walls of the base.
Everyone hugged under the wall and waited for further orders, but the captain could not be contacted, and it was not until this time, through wireless positioning, that it was discovered that the captain was swept by the light cannon in the charge just now, and his chest was broken from it, and he was already silent.
