Chapter 189: Drill

In the virtual space, in a corner of the city that is the exercise ground, the gray smoke is getting thicker and thicker, enveloping the 100-meter radius.

Onlookers had no time to see what was happening inside, and could only judge by the red arc light that flashed through the smoke and the way one drill officer after another left with bitter faces: Zion's situation seemed to be terrible, and Yuan Haofang's Jim was killing in the smoke.

In fact, it's officially. Mobile Suits are ultimately good for close-quarters combat. Tanks, traditional artillery-type mobile weapons, although they can also pose a threat to mobile suits from a certain distance, once they are killed by mobile suits and raise their lightsabers in their hands, they will almost only be slaughtered.

Sword light! Explosion! Roar!

Theoretically, while the Mobile Suit is attacking a target, the remaining tanks can quickly retreat, pulling away from Jim and shelling his flank at close range at a high elevation angle.

Because the distance is so close, there is no possibility of missing the target.

But, theoretically, only theoretically...... Actually encountered, although they had long known that they could not be injured in such a drill, but under such a real touch, they were still confused, panicked, and at a loss. It was as if they had encountered an invincible opponent, their morale was broken, and they had no intention of fighting.

Naturally, like cutting melons and vegetables, they were all killed by Huang Yun in just one minute.

"What a weak chicken!" the little girl Huang Yun chuckled, and a faint mockery poked into their ears like a pinprick.

The people of Zion listened harshly and had the heart to refute, but when they opened their mouths, they found that they could not say anything.

The destruction of the tank forces was only the beginning. But this bad start is undoubtedly an omen that reveals the beginning of a series of defeats for Zion.

To be honest, although Zion is equipped with a mecha similar to MS, and has also practiced guerrilla tactics in the battle with the matrix, he understands that maneuver is the first thing, but in the use of mechas, they are still very old-fashioned.

What mobile swarm tactics, what wave attacks, what small mobile forces shuttle and divide...... They have only read in some books from the past and know the names of these tactics. They don't know exactly how to use these tactics or when to use them.

In fact, they have always used mechs as a direct defense force for Zion City. In the eyes of the Zionists, these mechs were meant to be used as mobile turrets, and they were defensive weapons rather than offensive ones. After all, their rudimentary structure can only survive underground, in an environment where humans can stay directly in Zion.

It is no wonder that the reserve officers, who have been influenced by this concept all their lives, do not know how to fight offensive operations at all.

They acted in full accordance with the orders of their own commanders. They were told to attack, and they advanced their forces along the avenue. They don't understand what scouts and what flank supports, and they are stupid like roe deer.

Truth be told, Commander Locke's unit arrangement was really problematic, and the tactical coordination was not very good - just like the self-propelled artillery was now placed on the other side of the city, surrounded by mechanical octopuses to protect the artillery, while the tank units were left alone to face the mobile suit raids, and the last and largest fortress, the artillery heavy patrol, was placed near the sea, some distance from the self-propelled artillery position.

"Hmm...... It's quite a scattered arrangement. Yuan Hao looked at the situation map of the enemy on the director's command stage and pondered.

However, he also knew that such a seemingly scattered arrangement also contained some kind of trap. If Huang Yun hadn't seen it, walked into it stupidly, and revealed her identity, then she would have been attacked by artillery fire from both directions. At that point, Jim will probably not be able to hold on.

Although Jim is a highly completed mass production machine, it is not a Gundam after all.

"It's not Gundam, so don't play mowing the grass head-on. Yuan Hao muttered quietly.

He knew that Huang Yun couldn't hear him, but he hoped that Huang Yun could understand what he was thinking.

"Don't make a fuss. Yuan Hao thought so.

He stared at the map of the enemy's situation, and saw Jim, marked with a small red dot on it, walking towards the central square of the city, about to enter a large open square, which was the center of the city, and where both self-propelled and heavy patrol fire could be covered, which could be regarded as death.

"Oops, don't get close!" Yuan Hao was anxious in his heart.

Maybe it sensed Yuan Hao's mind, or maybe Huang Yun himself understood that there was some kind of conspiracy here, and when Jim Guard was about to enter the center of the city, it suddenly stopped, and directly turned in a direction on the edge of the city square, heading straight into the southwest.

Southwest, that's where the artillery patrol stops. At this point, the Heavy Patrol hadn't been activated at all, and he stopped there, seemingly determined to use it as a fortress.

"Finish the battleship first, and then get the self-propelled gun? That's a good idea. Yuan Hao understood Huang Yun's intentions.

"Now, it's up to him to do it. Yuan Hao thought, his eyes once again focused on the situation map of friend and foe.

The situation map refreshed, representing Jim's dots moving towards the coast step by step, at a very fast speed.

This is also where Mobile Suit is powerful, despite being a bipedal walking mech, Jim can still reach speeds of 150 kilometers per hour, which is much faster than the tanks of the old era.

With this high speed, Jim Guard quickly approached the shoreline. She saw the cruiser parked about three kilometers away from the coastline.

This is a heavy cruiser, armed with an eight-inch main gun. There seemed to be a lot of artillery, and Huang Yun couldn't tell what type of cruiser this kind of cruiser was after searching for his barren knowledge. All she knew was that there were fifteen guns on the opposite cruiser.

"15 203mm naval guns, 6 127mm naval guns...... When it is this side, the firepower intensity is amazingly high. Huang Yun's heart was slightly hairy.

Although she also knew that this battleship should be considered an old-fashioned commodity, as long as she was careful, she could not pose any threat to herself at all. Just looking at the slender and majestic body of the battleship, the little girl still couldn't help but feel a little nervous in her heart.

"You want to kill such a big guy by yourself...... It's not an easy thing to do. I have to be careful. Well, maneuver is the best! You have to keep moving, you can't fall down, let him aim at himself. The little girl Huang Yun thought.

In an instant, Jim accelerated, turning into a gust of wind and rushing forward. Jim Guard's mobility is still very good, although limited by the material, he is not as strong as the Vanguard Gundam at the same power, but it is still enough to have 90% of the Vanguard ability. At this speed, it is really difficult to deal with the heavy patrol. Because it's so fast.

"The artillery crews are up to me. Capture where the enemy is, and shoot!" shouted the officer in charge of a battleship.

In the face of the rushing Jim Guard, the 203mm guns above the heavy patrol rotated in unison, trying to capture Jim's movements. However, Jim's speed was so fast that he was out of his place before the main gun could catch him.

Mobile suit, mobile first, Huang Yun has given full play to this advantage.

Of course, without special auxiliary equipment, it is impossible for the Jim Guard to step on the surface of the sea. Therefore, Huang Yun can only maneuver on the side of the coast, on the long beach. Fortunately, the place where the heavy patrol docked was not far from the coast, and it was completely within each other's attack range, Huang Yun was able to hit the heavy patrol, and the heavy patrol could also attack Huang Yun. Now it's a matter of who can destroy each other faster.

Unlike the more elaborate discovery and destruction of the more recent eras, there are no missiles on this battlefield that can turn and bite the enemy. Because that thing needs the support of electronics and technology, and electronic technology is useless in the face of advanced intelligence such as the matrix, they can easily tamper with your electronic signal and let the launched missile turn around and hit you directly - this is said to have happened before, so people now choose to be more conservative shells.

The shells are parabolic, there is not so much intelligence, and naturally there is no problem of being controlled by people.

Bow, stern...... Bow and stern!

Jimguard ran back and forth, bewildering the Patrol Man. They are irritable, and they have no way to judge accordingly.

In the director's department, looking at the irritable appearance of these people, Locke frowned slightly: "Let these people all retreat for me!" ”

"Commander, this ......" Some people think something is not good.

"We're against the Matrix, and the Matrix doesn't have such feelings, everything is cold data in its eyes. So, I wanted to see how the guy on the other side would react to an enemy like the Matrix. Locke said coldly.

"This ......" some people hesitated.

"Do it!" Locke urged loudly.

"Alright!" the order was quickly issued. The officers who had been sitting in front of the console all got up and stepped back. Soon, all of the Zion's controllers left their seats. The rest of the battle will be directed by the computer.

At this time, Huang Yun didn't know this.

She had some vague feelings, but she didn't understand what was going on.

Bow, stern!

She continued to run, trying to disturb the other person's mood and reaction through such movements. However, when she came down this circle, she found that the main gun on the opposite side did not follow her, and the only thing that could react was the opponent's secondary gun and anti-aircraft machine gun.

The main guns were also moving, but the movement was very small, and there was no unified command for each battery, they were scattered and scattered with each other, as if forming a staggered fan.

"Feeling dangerous, is it an illusion?" Huang Yun narrowed his eyes.

The little girl believes more in the feelings of her own heart. Even if it was really an illusion, she recognized it.

"In that case...... Well, raid!" the little girl made up her mind.

Jimguard took a sharp step forward, and just then, a combined 127mm flat-height dual-purpose gun suddenly opened fire.

The whistling cannonball came in an instant, hitting Jim Guard directly in the chest.

"I've been shot!" The violent vibration and the roar that resounded in his ears made Huang Yun quickly realize this. Although the shock absorption performance of the Jim Guard is good, and the cockpit is also equipped with various cushioning frames, the impact of the violent explosion still makes her tremble for a while.

"No!" Huang Yun reacted at the moment she was shot, she turned sideways, and the jet port and posture adjustment nozzle of the body all turned to the right, quickly deviating from the spot.

This maneuver allowed it to withstand only one shell.

"It's dangerous, if you get another shot. Two seconds later, Huang Yun, whose face was slightly pale, raised his head and looked at the heavy patrol in front of him.

After eating a cannonball, Jimguard's chest went black, but the explosion was not powerful enough to tear through Jimguard's armor - the new titanium armor provided Mobile Suit with defense far above that of a Cosmic Cruiser, which is not understandable to people in the world of the Matrix.

The evasion operation continued, and through the smoke and dust of the 127mm gun's continuous fire, Huang Yun saw the body of the battleship. She switched weapons and called in 300mm rocket launchers.

The cannon was carried on his shoulder, and the heavy weight made Huang Yun feel a little relieved.

Rolling on the spot, he dodged the attack again, and the rocket launcher fired a 300mm armor-piercing high-explosive chamber, accurately hitting the heavy patrol that had stopped on the undulating sea three seconds later.

"Broadside hit...... Pierce through enemy armor. Huang Yun observed the results of the battle, and was happy in her heart.

But this is also a matter of course, after all, the requirement of the defense of the battle fleet at that time was to be able to withstand the attack of its own main artillery. The heavy cruiser's artillery is 203mm, and his defensive armor is naturally aimed at the 203mm gun, and now it is attacked by 300mm caliber rocket artillery, so it is naturally heavily damaged.

The huge battleship paused slightly, and everything seemed to come to a halt in an instant. A huge opening appeared in the middle of the battleship, but fortunately it was still above the water, and not much seawater poured into it. However, such an explosion has destroyed two 40mm cannons and a 127mm flat-height dual-purpose gun in the middle of the hull.

The enemy's armament was destroyed, and the attacking artillery fire was reduced at once. This made Huang Yun's next action easier according to the cath.

The sturdy body shuttled through the artillery fire, and one after another 300mm rockets landed on the body of the heavy patrol. Huang Yun didn't deliberately attack the key point of the waterline, but just as quickly as possible to greet the other party's body with the 300mm rocket in his hand, and in a short time, the opponent's body was full of gunsmoke, and the silence of the artillery one by one soon turned him into an iron shell floating on the water.

At this moment, a sharp whistling sound erupted, a round of artillery fire came from a distance, and an assault team of dozens of mechanical octopuses came out of the ground, struck from the rear of a building, and swooped down on Jim's Guard.

Cold, ruthless...... This is how mechanical units fight.
