Chapter 140: Attacking Raqqa Town

"Buzzing" As soon as the first rays of the morning light shone on the town of Raqqa, which was billowing with smoke everywhere, a unique engine roar of Banshee fighters rang out in mid-air. More than a dozen Banshee fighters took off from the camp of the Federation Army in the distance, and as they approached the town of Raqqa, they turned on their invisible force fields one after another, merging with the gray sky. These banshees belonged to the 3rd Regiment of the 90th Air Assault Division of the Federal Army, and were ordered to cover the 17th Marine Division's attack on Raqqa Town.

Although the town of Raqqa under his feet was dead silent, when the pilots of the 90 Air Assault Division still did not dare to be careless, they still did not hesitate to consume energy to open the stealth force field to the strongest state, and the pilot's special holographic helmet cooperated with the airborne infrared radar, scanning the movement of the ruins below the fighter plane over and over again.

After several days and nights of fierce fighting, the 17th Marine Division occupied all the strongholds on the outskirts of Raqqa Town, including the mountain fortresses on the east and west sides of the town, and successively fell under the control of the 17th Marine Division. However, the operations of the Marine Division in the city were not very smooth. After paying heavy casualties, the 17th Marine Division captured about two-thirds of the city. The stubborn resistance of the 29th Infantry Division of the 77th Corps of the Sharon Army still occupies some floors of government buildings, banks, schools and other floors in the city, and with the help of the complex areas in the city, the fierce street fighting consumes the survival of the 17th Marine Division little by little.

"Dididi!" As the Banshee planes flew over the city occupied by Sharon's rebels, a series of rapid radar sirens sounded in the pilot's headset. "Warning, the fighter has been locked by enemy anti-stealth radar! Please evade quickly, evade quickly! At the same time, the computer beep rang out.

"Damn, when did these bastards get the anti-stealth radar equipped!" Accompanied by those warning sounds, the captain's angry and angry scolding was heard from the pilots' helmets. "Each machine listens to my orders, turns off the invisible force field, concentrates all the energy, the power system is fully opened, and quickly climbs and spreads! Projectile thermal decoy bombs! Fast! Scolding and scolding, between this abnormal protrusion, the captain of the banshee fighter still did not forget to give a series of orders one after another.

"Bang Bang Bang" was accompanied by clusters of thermal decoy bombs that were thrown out like flowers by the Celestial Maiden, and twelve ugly Banshee fighters appeared in mid-air. However, when the pilots were hurriedly maneuvering the fighters and making all kinds of emergency evasive actions, there was no trace of surface-to-air missiles equipped with anti-stealth radars between the ruins and walls.

"I'm X, fooled!" The captain of the Banshee Fighter almost subconsciously sensed that something was wrong, and was hesitating, when the radar warning system in the cockpit roared again. This time it was not the signal of the anti-stealth radar, but the radar signal of the man-portable armored missile.

"Immediately turn on the invisible force field and climb at full speed! Fast! The next moment, through the bulletproof glass cockpit, the captain of the banshee fighter saw a faint white smoke suddenly rising on the ground, and his head suddenly exploded with a buzz, and he hurriedly roared at the call channel between life and death.

It was clear that the Sharon commanders who were hiding among the ruins were quite cunning. In the absence of anti-stealth missiles, use the anti-stealth radar to lock on to the Banshee fighters, forcing the Banshees to turn off the stealth system in a panic and supply all the energy to the power system, in order to avoid the attack of surface-to-air missiles.

After that, the soldiers who hide between the tall buildings use cheap and abundant anti-armor missiles to attack the Banshee fighters in groups. Those anti-armor missiles are generally used against combat vehicle mechs, so they are not equipped with anti-stealth radar warheads. However, when the Banshee Fighter turned off the stealth force field, its target characteristics were not much different from those of the Chariot Mech, and the Anti-Armor Missile was able to easily hit these relatively weakly armored fighters.

Although at the critical moment, the captain of the Banshee Fighter gave the correct order, it would take at least three to five seconds for the Banshee Fighter's stealth force field to be reopened. And for those missiles that have already been launched, three to five seconds is enough time for them to hit the fighter planes scurrying around in the air like headless flies.

"Boom" A series of violent explosions sounded one after another in mid-air. The rebels fired dozens of individual anti-armor missiles in one go, and almost every Banshee fighter had to deal with more than three missile pursuits. No matter how skilled the pilots are, they will not be able to avoid such a large number of missile pursuits at the same time.

Within three or five seconds, except for the two banshee fighters that were lucky enough not to be directly destroyed and fled from the battlefield with injuries, the remaining ten banshees turned into fireballs one after another and smashed down.

"Boom!" A banshee fighter with shattered wings smashed into a community of low houses with raging flames, and the missiles and energy blocks on board exploded, forming a secondary explosion, and a brilliant small mushroom cloud immediately rose, and the violent explosion shock wave whistled the surrounding broken bricks and tiles.

"Tut-tut! These poor children are really unlucky! Lying behind a bunker, Hao Yi "admired" the banshee fighters that fell like moths, squinting his eyes and shaking his head in pity.

"I mean, these goblins are too miserable, aren't they? Not a single missile was launched, and it was beaten down from the air by people en masse without saying a word! Hu Erpang chewed the gum in his mouth, flashing his small eyes and muttering.

"Isn't it! I've heard that among the pilots of the Air Assault Division, the pilots of these Banshee fighters are like us Marines, all of whom belong to the cannon fodder class! A senior soldier next to him leaned over and said.

"Cannon fodder?" Hao Yi pursed his lips and muttered dissatisfiedly, "Damn, isn't cannon fodder human?" ”

"What the fuck are you muttering? If we don't hurry up and get ready, those iron birds are finished, and it's our turn again! Louie, who was already the acting company commander, was patrolling the defense line with a spike rifle, came to Haoyi and the others, glared at him and whispered. Hao Yi's 12th Marine Company was killed during the landing operation, and the company staff officer was also killed by a stray bullet in the ensuing battle. Lieutenant Louie, the oldest and highest-ranking platoon commander, was immediately appointed acting commander of the 12th Company. And Haoyi also succeeded Louis as the commander of the third platoon.

"I said the old way, why are we on it again?" Haoyi turned his head and looked at Louis with a look that only a resentful woman has, and complained: "Since the day before yesterday, when we arrived in this ghost place, our company didn't even have time to shit and fart, and we were endlessly playing with those doggy madmen, even if we didn't get killed, we would be tired to death!" I said the old way, you go and ask the battalion commander or the regiment commander, do they still want our 12th company? ”

"you! You kid, don't want to give Lao Tzu a! Louis was furious by Hao Yi's eyes, and couldn't help but raise his foot and kick Hao Yi, and scolded: "In a while, you will lead the three rows for Lao Tzu to explore in front!" Call you the kid who talks the most! ”

"Huh? No way! I said acting company commander, you can't be promoted and make a fortune and forget about your mother's family! These three rows are your mother's house, and the brothers in the three rows are all your grandmothers and uncles, how can you push us into the fire pit! Haoyi begged Louis with an aggrieved face.

"You!" Haoyi's words made Louis roll his eyes repeatedly, leaned over and grabbed Haoyi's armor collar, casually closed his communication headset and blocked the headset in Haoyi's helmet, gritted his teeth and whispered: "You bastard boy, just because Lao Tzu also came out of the third row, so the first thing should be for our brothers in the third row, otherwise it will make the brothers in the other rows think that Lao Tzu is favoring our platoon, understand!" ”

"I understand, I understand! Ay! Hao Yi nodded in response. In fact, there is no need for Louis to explain more, Haoyi also vaguely guessed Louie's intentions in his heart, and just complained to Louis casually. However, there is one thing that Hao Yi is not wrong, that is, since last night, the regiment seems to have begun to "trust" the 12th Company, but whenever there is any offensive combat mission, let the 12th Company go first. At the end of the day and night, the 12th Company, which had just been replenished with new recruits, suffered nearly one-third of the brothers.

"Let the brethren get ready, and take the time to rest and rest! The battalion let us take the lead in attacking in ten minutes! The other brother companies will follow. Louis let go of the big hand that grabbed Hao Yi, gently patted Hao Yi on the shoulder, sighed and commanded in a deep voice: "Bring good brothers to Lao Tzu, don't fucking stupidly hit the enemy's muzzle, understand!" ”

"Anla old road!" Haoyi comforted Louis with a relaxed face: "If you don't worry, I'll personally take a few brothers to go around in front of me in a while, okay?" ”

"You kid should be fucking careful! I don't want to be busy collecting the corpses of you rabbit cubs before the battle is over, understand? Louis admonished with a straight face, and then turned to leave.

"Oh yes, also, Lao Tzu is not surnamed Lu, Lao Tzu's full name is Louie? Clarence, don't give Lao Tzu a surname! Before Haoyi came back to his senses, Louie, who had just walked a few steps, turned around and glared at him again.

"What kind of death? Ya is really ugly, it's still called the old road smooth! Looking at Louie's distant back, Haoyi muttered in a low voice, and looked back to see a group of soldiers under his hands, all with their masks open, looking at themselves with a smile.

"What do you see? Damn, I know I'm handsome, but I don't need you to look at me like an idiot! Probably because he felt that the embarrassed appearance he had just been taught by Louis was seen by these subordinates, Haoyi felt embarrassed, glared and scolded angrily: "You boys, look at Lao Tzu for a while, and let you all go up the road!" Tell you to fuck me laugh again! ”

"Ah, the platoon leader is angry! Our admiration for you is like a surging river, and it is like a river that is out of control! Platoon leader, you are wise and martial, and Yushu is in the wind......" A corporal hurriedly approached Haoyi with a smile on his face, and said flatteringly.

"Haoyi, get ready, take a few brothers to go on a trip first! Let's go on the offensive in the camp! At this moment, Louie's order came from Haoyi's headset.

"Okay, you sycophant Mick shut up Lao Tzu!" Haoyi interrupted the corporal impatiently, then looked at the soldiers around him, stretched out his hand and pointed at Hu Erfat, Mick and the other three soldiers, and said, "Erfat, Mick and you, you, you, go to the front with Lao Tzu!" Walk! ”
