Chapter 057: The Princess of Drag Racing

In Filton City, on the main driveway leading to Bertham's House on the outskirts of the city, an armored force blocked the entrance to and from the city.

Rows of siege tanks have switched to siege mode, with four steel claws embedded deep in the earth, and the muzzles of stout cannon howitzers raised high, aiming at the end of the locomotive lane outside and inside the city. Raider mechs roamed the cracks of these siege tanks, their stout steel arms of rapid-fire laser cannons and punisher howitzers, staring to the left and right as if they were notched. On either side of the entrance, there were also four light medium- and low-altitude anti-aircraft missile vehicles, on which the missile launch hatches had been opened and raised high.

Twenty or thirty armored personnel carriers were parked behind the heavily armed men, and groups of heavily armed Marines patrolled back and forth on both sides of the locomotive lane. In one of the armored command vehicles, a middle-aged major wearing an armored unit uniform was crossing Erlang's legs, holding his head, blowing bubbles, and snoring like a mountain. Several lieutenants wore headphones and leisurely operated the electronic devices in the car.

Suddenly, there was a rapid call from the headset of one of the lieutenants, and the lieutenant's expression tightened, and he covered the headset with one hand and listened carefully for a while, then hurriedly turned around and woke up the sleeping major: "Sir, the outpost reported that an unidentified armed off-road locomotive was found twenty kilometers away, approaching this side at high speed!" ”

"What?" The sleepy-eyed major didn't hear the captain's report clearly for a while, and after the lieutenant repeated the information again, the major's face suddenly changed, and he stood up from the cold seat suddenly, and after a little hesitation, he resolutely waved his hand and ordered: "Order the first company of mecha to send a platoon out ten kilometers forward to pre-intercept the unknown vehicles, and the rest of the mecha chariots will not move in place and prepare for the second interception." All siege tanks have their initial range set at five km! ”

Now is a tense moment of martial law in the whole city, and this major does not want to let his boss send him to a military court because of his hesitation and negligence, or even directly let his head move. Therefore, he and his subordinates have always been nervous, and the slightest wind and grass will be as if they are facing a great enemy.

Following the major's order, a rapid and terrible siren sounded over the position, and the entire armored force rumbled to the sound of the siren. Three raider mechs with two armored personnel carriers sped forward along the main lane, and all the tanks in siege mode buzzed to adjust their muzzles. Groups of Marines followed one mech after another, taking a defensive stance on both flanks of the siege tanks.

"Sir, the outpost has sent back images of unidentified vehicles!" Just as the major nervously mobilized his subordinates to prepare for the enemy, the previous lieutenant suddenly pointed to the holographic display screen in front of him and shouted back to the major.

Hearing this, the Major hurriedly leaned over and carefully stomped into the images displayed on the screen and captured by the outpost.

"It's an SKTT-type armed off-road vehicle, and it looks like it's our own vehicle!" The lieutenant pointed to the locomotive in the center of the screen at high speed, and said to the major.

"Enlarge the license plate number of that car and show me it!" The major folded his arms, frowned, and ordered the lieutenant in a deep voice.

"Yes, sir!" The lieutenant answered, and then skillfully took a screenshot of the position of the license plate of the unidentified locomotive on the screen, and then enlarged the image, and a line of "SM-AJ0729" characters immediately appeared in the eyes of the major.

"I'm X! It's the general's personal guard! After seeing the string of characters, the major was taken aback and cried out. The meaning of the alphanumeric number of the military locomotive is actually very simple, SM stands for the planet of Myrsa in the St. Proli Star Zone, A represents the military vehicle, J is the first letter of Jeff's name, and the following number is the sequence number of the locomotive.

Having been in the army for a long time, this major naturally knew that there was an unwritten rule here. Jeff has a personal guard under his command, and all of his military vehicles have J-shaped license plates. Although the armored battalion led by the Major was nominally under Jeff's command, it was not a descendant unit such as the General's Guard in the true sense of the word. And Jeff's personal guards, because their master is a red man in the eyes of the prime minister of the new government, has always acted arrogantly and unreasonably, and is a well-known young master soldier in the entire new army of St. Prolly.

"Quick! Dismiss the alert now! The mecha platoon sent out was ordered to stand by and stay vigilant, and not to intercept this armed off-road vehicle! After a brief moment of astonishment, the major hurriedly ordered the lieutenant.

"Sir, aren't you going to inspect this car?" The lieutenant hesitated in amazement.

"What nonsense! Didn't you see that this was the locomotive of General Jeff's personal guards? Just execute the order! The major cursed angrily, and then prayed secretly in his heart, hoping that his men who were driving mecha would not run too fast, and it was best not to "move" the locomotive yet, so as not to provoke these personal guards like Lord Hades.

"No, sir! Looks like the driver is a woman! After conveying the major's order, the lieutenant carefully glanced at the picture on the display screen and said to the colonel suspiciously.

The off-road vehicle was originally a lightweight, open-top locomotive that could carry four heavily armed Marines, and a 12.7mm squad machine gun mounted on the middle beam of the locomotive. However, at this time, there was only one girl in a tight short skirt, a white T-shirt and long flowing hair on the locomotive that was rushing towards the city of Felton.

"Why do you care so much? Let the brethren return to normal patrols, and remind them one more thing, don't give the to Lao Tzu to provoke that off-road locomotive! Lao Tzu still wants to sleep peacefully for a while! The major glared at the lieutenant, then lit himself a cigarette, took a heavy puff, and exhaled a long smoke ring.

The armed off-road locomotive was driven from Bertreum at the Zhangtai Palace on the outskirts of the city. It was none other than Bertram's daughter, Miss Irene.

What no one could have imagined was that this delicate daughter, who had just turned nineteen years old, was actually a drag racing maniac. On her tenth birthday, Erin learned to drive a lightweight civilian locomotive. When she was a little older, she became madly fascinated by locomotives, especially fast locomotives of all kinds, extremely fast, sports cars, etc. And this little girl seems to have a natural talent for driving motorcycles, and in the rebellious years of adolescence, she often drove in sports cars and raced with young people of the same age, and there was never an accident. This made her parents, Bertreme and Monica, frightened, and had no choice but to reluctantly acquiesce to the only daughter's interests.

In the last two or three years, Erin has suddenly become obsessed with some military locomotives that are not inferior to ordinary sports cars and have excellent off-road performance, such as light armed off-road vehicles, evil fire assault vehicles, and so on. This is also thanks to the fact that her father is the "master" of the St. Proli Star District, otherwise, how could any rich family let their daughter play with military locomotives so wantonly.

About half an hour ago, Erin took advantage of her mother Monica and Jeff's "cordial conversation" to "borrow" a patrolman's motorized airship and flew out of Zhangtai Palace. Then, outside the Zhangtai Palace, she saw the two heavily armed armored regiments brought by Jeff, as well as the rows and piles of tanks, mechs, and fire assault vehicles, armed off-road vehicles, personnel carriers, and so on. Erin was not only dazzled, but also excited, and without saying a word, she "snatched" the armed off-road locomotive from the hands of a sergeant, and in the stunned eyes of the soldiers, skillfully started the locomotive, and flew away in a burst of black smoke from engine overload starting.

After hitting the road, Erin first went crazy on the wilderness locomotive outside the palace for a few minutes, and then suddenly the idea of running to the city of Felton to see her father, Bertlem, who was working in the Prime Minister's Office. So, the eldest lady who likes drag racing suddenly turns the car around, and rushes towards Filton at a high speed of nearly two hundred yards per hour, which is the scene that begins in this chapter.

Erin, who was driving an off-road locomotive all the way excitedly, naturally saw the tall and mighty raider mecha standing on both sides of the locomotive not far ahead. Faced with their raised muzzles, which seemed to be aimed at her, Erin pursed her lips rather disdainfully, and muttered in the strong wind that was hung up by the speed of the locomotive, "Annoying! Which general's uncle's soldiers are here to disturb the interest of this girl! ”

While muttering, Erin was not idle in her hands, and with a few shifts, she blasted the accelerator of this off-road motorcycle to the maximum, and a stream of black gas flew out of the engine nozzle, and the locomotive flew towards the middle of the mechs like a giant missile.

"Sir, the unidentified armed locomotive has already rushed through the first interception line and is rushing towards the second interception line of our department!" The commander of the Marauder mecha platoon was in the cockpit, watching the locomotive "arrogantly" fly away in front of his eyes through the holographic helmet, and reluctantly reported to his immediate superior.

"Lao Tzu repeats the order again, no one shall attempt to intercept that armed off-road locomotive! If any of the unsighted bastards dares to shoot me, come to me with their heads in their hands! "Seeing the armed off-road locomotive rushing along the main engine lane, the order that the major almost shouted out almost through gritted teeth sounded in the headsets of all the soldiers of this armored battalion.

As a result, this group of heavily armed soldiers could only flash to the side of the road one by one, staring at the locomotive "scratching its head" in the chariot cluster position, crossing several graceful arcs, and even grazing the side of those siege tanks and raider mechs almost zero distance, flying by. Then, in the hateful eyes of those chariot mecha pilots, they triumphantly rushed straight towards the city.

"Hoohoo!" In the puff of smoke and dust raised by the armed off-road locomotive, some Marines could faintly hear the excited and indecent "howl" of a woman.

"Big brother, I heard you right, right? Why is it that the driver is actually a woman? Marine A asked in surprise to Marine B.

"Well, yes, I heard that, too!" Marine B nodded very seriously, and then, he tried his best to lower his voice and said to A: "If I'm not mistaken, the beautiful woman in the car is probably the prime minister's daughter!" ”

"Huh? You read that right? Marine A was surprised......
