Joseph and William put on their helmets, climbed to the roof of the command car, and looked in the direction where the red dot was flying.

The field of view of their head-mounted display automatically adjusts, instantly locking onto the rapidly approaching target, and then zooming in and out of blur to clarity.

"What is this?" said Joseph, with a slight shock in his voice.

William didn't speak, just stared at the target.

The anti-aircraft vehicles in the tank unit were also locked onto the target, and the quadruple anti-aircraft guns were quickly aimed at the target. The original version of the anti-aircraft combat vehicle was supposed to be a quadruple high-energy laser, but in the environment of Planet Four, the laser energy attenuation was extremely severe, so it was replaced with a combination of two lasers and two guns. At the same time, each anti-aircraft combat vehicle carries ten high-performance missiles.

It's just that these missiles are also limited on Planet Four, and they can't fly far before they miss their targets. Therefore, it is only used to deal with over-winged beasts in actual combat. Anyway, there are only war beasts in the sky, as long as they hit something.

Just before the anti-aircraft combat vehicle was ready to intercept, William ordered in the communication channel: "No fire, the queue is scattered!"

Although the lancers were puzzled, the chariots quickly dispersed, and the anti-aircraft chariots remained firmly on target while maneuvering.

William and Joseph stared at the distant sky. By this time, the target was clearly visible, a long cylinder, constantly expanding and contracting, and each blow spewing out a cloud of gas from its tail, propelling it into the air rapidly. It has four small shark-like fins that appear to act as a guide and balance.

It's just that this shape, how weird it looks.

As it approaches the chariot queue, it draws a high arc and falls towards the chariot troops.

William stared at its arc, his raised hand never dropping, and no anti-aircraft tank fired.

The strange flying object did not seem to be very accurate, and it fell in a somewhat insufficient arc, so it flew far past the chariot unit and landed 300 meters away.

After it hit the ground, its body exploded, filling with a large cloud of green smoke, which instantly covered a range of tens of meters.

William and Joseph were no strangers to these green mist and immediately ordered to open fire. The other lancer warriors had already prepared and gave the order to fire immediately, and dozens of tracer projectiles shot into the green mist, igniting before it could fully spread, and then a purple-green fireball appeared, and the roar of the explosion shook the earth.

It took three seconds after the explosion for Joseph to come to his senses from shock and say, "I'm not mistaken, what the hell is this thing ......?"

William's face was unusually solemn, "Although I don't want to admit it, but if I'm not blind, this thing ...... It should be a surface-to-surface missile. ”

"But isn't this thing alive?"

"Live surface-to-surface missiles. ”

"Thankfully, the accuracy is very impressive. ”

"Maybe we'll soon see a surface-to-ground missile with long eyes. ”

"What hell will we see in the future?, living chariots, living mechs?" Joseph was babbling there, when suddenly his voice rose an octave: "Hell! What is that?!"

A piercing alarm sounded in everyone's helmets, including William, and at the end of the field of vision, a large dense red dot appeared, flying at high speed!

Those are live surface-to-surface missiles, in the hundreds, all over the sky!

"Intercept! Intercept with all your might!" shouted William as he lunged towards his mech.

Joseph moved a step faster, and was now under his mech, anxiously waiting for the cockpit canopy to open.

The anti-aircraft combat vehicle finally fired at full firepower, and tracer catapults shot into the sky, and the debris from the explosion also drew a shining fluorescent effect. At the same time, a green laser shot into the sky and shone on the incoming target.

Just a few tenths of a second of continuous irradiation caused smoke to smoke from the part where the missile was irradiated, burning a large hole, and it continued to go deeper.

The missiles actually let out a painful scream, violently jetted, and flew around in the air, and some accelerated to the ground, exploding ahead of time, ending the painful life.

The power of high-energy lasers is attenuated much more here than on other planets, and it takes three times as long to intercept a missile as on other planets. Moreover, the number of missiles is so large that despite the full force of the air defense combat vehicles, and even the infantry and main combat vehicles have joined the ranks of interception, a third of the missiles still broke through the interception net and fell to the ground.

The chariot troops were covered in a diffuse green mist in an instant, followed by an earth-shattering explosion!

After a while, the smoke cleared, and Joseph's voice sounded in the communication channel: "It's really hard to deal with! William, William, are you still alive?"

"If you don't die, how can I die first?" William's voice came from the smoke.

Joseph breathed a sigh of relief and was about to check the casualties of the team when William shouted behind him, "Wait a minute! ”

Joseph turned around and strode into the smoke, only to see William's mecha lying on its back to the ground, one leg twisted in a strange state, apparently badly damaged.

Joseph leaned over, grabbed William's chest, pulled him up, then crouched down to check his leg, pulled out a piece of metal fragment from the joint, and said, "Okay, can you move?"

William moved his leg and said, "30% impairment in athleticism is acceptable." You don't have to worry about me, go and see the situation of the troops. ”

Joseph got up and said, "What the hell, with so many ground-to-ground missiles, is the evolution of these beast tides serious?"

He complained as he patrolled the battlefield, and when he came across a damaged chariot, he saw if the crew inside was alive.

The power of these bizarre surface-to-surface missiles is staggering, and there are destroyed tanks everywhere along the way, even the main combat vehicles, and the weakly armored infantry fighting vehicles and anti-aircraft fighting vehicles are even more difficult to survive.

Fortunately, the Federation has always been in the lead in terms of vehicles and mechs, and even if the vehicles are destroyed, most of the crew members inside will survive.

Joseph and William soon finished their rounds of the battlefield and met again, both of them looking gloomy.

"The tanks have lost more than a third, and I'm afraid we won't be able to move forward. ”

Joseph frowned, "But we're halfway there. ”

William said, "Even the mechs have been destroyed, and we can't move forward." What about those who have lost their tanks, throw them here, or take them with you?"

Before Joseph could speak, a large red dot suddenly appeared on the screen, so dense that it was already connected together, and it was impossible to tell how many there were.

Joseph's face changed, and he said loudly: "Prepare for battle!"
