Chapter 401: Burning!
July is the rainy season.
Although the province of the valley is inland, and the cumulonimbus clouds blow to the already consumed area with the monsoon, in previous years, at this time of year, there were still a few heavy rains.
Just like now, the sun was blazing one second ago, and in the blink of an eye, the sky was already covered with thick dark clouds......
“…… Traces of enemy troops were found in the southeast, and the scale was more than a thousand people! Their equipment is mainly small arms, with several modified exoskeletons of different models, and no armor or transport vehicles have been found! ”
In the tent.
A scout got down on one knee and reported the reconnaissance.
Rechel, who was sitting in the tent, quietly listened to the report of his subordinates, and the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up with a sneer.
Finnod, who was standing behind his hands, whispered thoughtfully.
"I didn't expect that it was really an indigenous ...... who had been entangled with us for more than half a month" "No matter how many reinforcements the company sent, it would not be possible to fill in endlessly like this."
Especially those rudimentary armaments, which made him even more convinced that these people were life
Indigenous in the area, and most likely from a slightly larger survivor colony nearby.
And the city lord or mayor there happens to be a guy who doesn't know whether to live or die. "What do you think they're trying to do?" Finnod still didn't quite understand. Is it for CR?
They did find corporate weapons, such as G9 assault rifles, on the corpses of those soldiers.
But for the sake of this money, it is really not very smart to go against the legion. They would crush the natives into a pile of scum as if they were crushing an ant. Only the wise who surrendered at the beginning could receive their forgiveness and become slaves of the Great Legion.
And for those who are stubborn.
All that awaits them is death.
"Maybe it's bought by people in the business, maybe it's a problem with the brain...... Anyway, they came just in time.
Rachel stood up from his chair.
A cruel smile cracked at the corner of his mouth, and his body exuded a murderous aura, and even the sultry air in the tent cooled down a few degrees.
General McClen had given the order to transfer the deployment, and suddenly said that he was going to move to Oasis 9, and he was worried that he would not have a chance to avenge the death of his brothers.
Now, this opportunity has actually come to the door.
He'll let the natives know.
What is self-defeating!
"Vito, Walit · …··”
Whispering the names, he picked up the jet-black helmet from the table and slowly put it on his head.
“.···· … I will avenge you. ”
……
Mountainous area of the western district of Seogu City.
Here sat the artillery positions that the new coalition had been preparing for a month.
More than 20 "Tempest" rocket launchers and 30 imitation 100mm guns were distributed on the rolling hills, at least 500 meters apart from each other.
Separate shelters for personnel, ammunition, and gun emplacements are dug next to each rocket launcher and artillery piece to ensure maximum safety of personnel and equipment in the event of a fire counterattack.
Of course, even with such adequate preparation, Yang Shu knew it well in his heart. You only have one chance.
“…… The opponent's counterfire will reach our heads in half a minute! ”
"We are the first shot, and the brothers on the other hills are waiting for our signal! We can't drop the chain no matter what, I need you to do not panic at any time, and follow my command no matter what happens! ”
"Do you understand?"
Walk ahead of the queue.
Poplar watched his artillerymen make the final mobilization before the battle. The artillerymen in a line were in high spirits, raised their heads and chests, and replied sonorously and forcefully.
"Understood!"
Looking at the slightly immature but extremely resolute faces, Poplar nodded with satisfaction.
He seemed to see his past in their faces.
Half a year ago, he ended his wanderings with a bowl of piping hot green wheat porridge and decided to follow in the footsteps of the Administrator and join the Alliance's army to resist the invasion of the Chewing Bone Tribe. In the next six months, he went north with the Northern Expeditionary Army, participated in several battles to liberate Xizhou City, and finally succeeded in driving the marauders who ate people and did not spit out bones.
Although he has been in the army for less than a year, and his experience in artillery has even been learned from other veterans on the battlefield, after experiencing several battles, his actual combat experience is not inferior to those veterans, and now he has become the captain of the 11th Artillery Squadron of the First Corps.
As the order to act was given, everyone moved.
The entire artillery position is like an ignition engine, and every part is running in an orderly manner.
Poplar walked alone to the position of the observation post, took a telescope and glanced in the direction of the command post, waiting for the signal.
The 100mm guns of Group 1 will use their signals to drop a smoke barrage near the Steel Fortress, disrupting the airship's visual observation.
When their second cannon sounds, a group of artillery will fire a second barrage, projecting chaff-laden shells near the Ironheart, creating a cloud of interference.
A large area of chaff reflects echoes that can deceive the radar, forming a cloud on the radar", thus covering the air to break through the enemy's anti-aircraft fire network.
These two shells are critical.
directly determines whether their airborne troops can successfully reach the top of each other's heads. And when this work was done, he needed to evacuate quickly with his brothers
In the anti-artillery hole next to it, wait for the end of the area fire projected by the enemy.
Thinking back to the content of the battle plan, Yang Shu felt a handful of sweat in his palms. If the opponent's counterfire is 100mm guns, they have a good chance of surviving.
However, if it is a 400mm rifled rocket......
With Naia's nuclear weapon-level power, they have less than a two-in-a-half chance of surviving. Still, even though he knew this, there was still no fear in his heart. Compared to the warriors who charged on the front line, the combat position they assumed was quite safe.
Not to mention a life.
There's nothing to be afraid of.
If it weren't for those people who reached out to him, his life would have come to an end half a year ago.
The clouds in the sky were getting denser.
Poplar glanced up at the sky, and it just so happened that a drop of rain landed on his stubble and went down his neck into the collar.
Feeling the coldness of his neck, he frowned and whispered a sentence in his mouth. “…… It's going to rain. ”
……
"It's raining... … It seems that God is not always on our side. "A command post not far from the artillery position.
Standing behind a rock, Kakarot was carrying an assault rifle in his hand, looked in the direction of the airship, grinned, and said teasingly.
Rainy weather can affect the accuracy of the radar.
However, it also reduces the duration of smoke grenades and jamming grenades.
In particular, the impact of rainy weather on the maneuverability of aircraft is a serious test for the alliance, which mainly uses propeller aircraft for combat.
While heavy rain will have an impact on both sides, it will be more pronounced on the attacking side.
However, they already did not have time to delay the battle plan.
I don't know when the rain will stop, and the airship on the other side will undoubtedly be withdrawn in two days.
Holding the telescope in his hand, the expression on the face of the commander of the spring water did not change at all, and he said meticulously in a calm tone.
"Sunny days with low wind speeds are naturally the best-case scenario."
"However, there is also a rainy day to play on a rainy day."
Of course, he knew that July was the rainy season, so he naturally did not fail to take into account the current situation.
He put down the telescope in his hand.
He tapped his index finger twice on the side of the helmet, closing the visor of the exoskeleton helmet while giving a clean order.
"Start Plan B!"
Operation Code Name –
Whale Fall!
Standing on the side, I straightened my waist excitedly, and stood up straight with a sense of substitution and gave a military salute.
"Yes!"
"It's going to rain a lot... ……”
Dawning City Airport.
Looking at the raindrops that slipped from the cabin cover, Luo Yu glanced at the VM tied to his thigh, and while muttering in his mouth, he reached out to turn on the power of the avionics equipment. Rainy day.
Then the corresponding should be Plan B in the battle plan.
Ground artillery will still fire a barrage of cover, but with a slight adjustment to the order of advance.
On a sunny day, coalition aircraft will fight around the jamming cloud, while ground forces will take the lead in attacking, serving as a decoy to attract opposing fire.
On a rainy day, the effect of the interference cloud will be weakened, and the jet with a maximum speed of Mach 3 under him will have to be relied on as the main bait.
In fact, there is no change in tactical thinking, it has become just a sequence.
At this time, a line of light blue pop-ups appeared on the VM screen.
【ECM Connected】
The moment he saw this line of words, Luo Yu breathed a sigh of relief, raised his index finger and tapped twice on the headset and said.
"The electronic jamming pod has been activated! Confirm it's working! ”
There are two ideas for jamming radars, one is to use chaff to reflect echo interference, and the other is "active irradiation". Specifically, after capturing the radar signal, it actively responds to the disordered or orderly radar signal to the opponent's radar. The former is equivalent to a smoke grenade, which can hide the specific location of the target, and the disadvantage is that the action time is short, and it is easy to burn through.
The latter is equivalent to lighting a headlight on the opposite side to find you, and you turn on the flashlight to shine his eyes, so that he can't see clearly, or misjudge the size and scale of the target.
For example, the electronic jamming pod hanging on his wing at the moment adopts the latter jamming strategy, which can simulate the radar signals of 600 Mosquito fighters.
This is the latest piece of equipment designed by the Alliance Research Team for the Alliance Air Force, specifically targeting the Ironheart's radar system.
It's a pity that the preparation for this decisive battle was too hasty.
Otherwise, they could have put an anti-radar stealth coating on every aircraft; And arrange a few more "electronic warfare aircraft" to interfere with the opponent's firepower.
However, the reality is not so many ifs.
They have used all the means at their disposal, even if they may not be effective, but even if they can buy them an extra second.
This operation will also have an extra chance of success......
The voice of the command could be heard from within the communication channel.
"Command received... … Ready to enter a combat position. ”
"Understood!"
As he answered, Luo Yu had already driven the plane onto the runway and pushed the valve that controlled the fuel to the maximum.
The roar of the engine gradually came from behind him.
He couldn't see it, but he could imagine the arc of fire evaporating the rain from the runway and pushing him forward.
The fuselage left the runway and rushed into the sky covered with dark clouds.
Retracting his gaze from the fading surface, Luo Yu, whose back was close to the seat, took a deep breath, moved the ten fingers holding the joystick, and his pupils gradually ignited boiling battle intent.
Come on!
It's time to show off the real technology!
At this moment, next to the runway of the North Airport of Dawning City.
Looking at the arc of fire that penetrated into the rain curtain, the unprofessional anti-steamed bun sitting in the "Dragonfly" transport plane smacked his lips enviously.
"Damn, I want to open that too!"
This kind of slow propeller plane with the same target as the target, how can a jet plane drive coolly.
Since the microphone was not turned off, the teasing of mosquitoes soon came from the communication channel. "Haha, that thing is a prototype, let's get one out for the time being, you wait.
"Then I'll wait."
Glancing at the cabin behind him, and seeing that the airborne troops had already boarded, he pulled the valve next to him and closed the hatch.
The traffic light flashes.
He removed the walkie-talkie that was hanging to the side, and said in the communication channel as he started the car.
"Lingyun 1 has taken off!"
"It's time for us to go, too."
At the same time, the western district of Ruigu City.
Sensing that an enemy ground target was approaching, Rachel led three thousand units of the Air Marines and 2,000 Wasteland Marines to search the target area under the guidance of the airship observation capsule.
Originally, the "Pangolin" 100-man team, which was the elite of the Hu Cong Army, also had to attack together, but due to the heavy casualties in the last mission, they could only be "lucky" to stay. Deciduous Camp.
Colway called the pangolin into the tent and looked at him.
"We have received orders from our superiors to leave the deciduous camp and return to the desert the day after tomorrow."
Although they had already heard the news, the Battlefield Atmosphere Team still pretended to be the first time they had heard about it, and after being contrivedly stunned for a moment, they made a reluctant and embarrassed expression on their faces.
"Are you leaving?"
He's really hard.
Not being able to go to the front with Rachel just now means that there is no chance to do something.
Although such a variable is expected, but he can't get a head after working for so long, which always makes him feel like he has wasted his efforts.
"We'll be back by the end of August at the latest."
Looking at the fierce general in front of him, Colway continued, "General McLaen has been watching your loyalty, and your bravery and loyalty are also obvious to all, from now on, you are the commander-in-chief of the Fallen Leaf Camp, and the official letter of appointment will be sent here tomorrow."
Tomorrow......
It was exactly a day late.
The battlefield atmosphere team sighed faintly in their hearts, and said in their hearts that they were afraid that they would not be able to get this appointment letter, but they still made a respectful expression and bowed their heads and said pretendly.
"Thank you for your promotion, my lord."
Looking at the honest dogleg in front of him, Colway nodded with satisfaction.
"Good job."
"The Legion never skimps on rewarding the faithful, and I hope that the next time we return, I will see a well-trained army.
"Don't let me down."
The battlefield veteran was thinking about how to say something to show his loyalty, but at that moment, a thunderous explosion was heard in the distance.
Since the sound was coming from the air, Colway thought it was thunder at first, but soon came back to his senses, it was the sound of exploding cannons.
And—
More than one voice.
Colway's face changed slightly, and he suddenly stood up from his chair, grabbed the walkie-talkie on the table, and shouted loudly.
"Enemy attack!"
"Prepare for battle!"
·
Almost at the same time as the shelling, the Iron Heart had already sounded the second alarm, and it was busy from the observation module to the gun position.
While the bombardment did not cause any damage to the Iron Heart, the smoke from the explosion had a significant impact on the observation pod, which was monitoring the situation on the ground.
More than ten minutes ago.
They had just observed traces of enemy unit activity in the southeast.
However, just as they were about to search carefully, a dense barrage suddenly exploded 500 meters to the east of the airship.
The smoke from the explosion obscured the view of the observation module, but fortunately, they had already taken down the general direction of the incoming artillery fire.
“…… Are these natives crazy? How dare they open fire on us? The loader said in surprise as he stuffed the shell into the chamber.
Those should know that this level of shelling is useless against Ironheart.
It's not so much panic as they are confused.
The deputy gunner, who was standing next to the observation hole, locked on to the smoke and said with a frown.
"It's a smoke bomb!"
“…… Ridiculous trick. ”
The officer standing behind the gun emplacements smiled coldly, glanced at the note handed by the herald, grabbed the communicator that was placed aside, and ordered loudly.
"The first three districts are ready for artillery emplacement! The azimuth is 112 degrees, and the depression angle is 27 degrees... Five salvos! ”
"Fire!"
Twelve thunderous cannons rang out, followed by twelve tracer holes piercing through the smoke and whizzing towards the coalition's artillery positions.
The flames of the explosion flickered on the hilltop, and soon another round of shelling rained down on the target area!
I saw flickering flames lining up on the mountains more than 20 kilometers away, and thick smoke drifted up from the rain curtain, instantly filling the enemy's artillery positions into a sea of smoke.
At the moment, inside the observation cabin.
The observer hand, who was crouching in front of the observation system, shouted excitedly.
"Hit confirmed!"
The faces of everyone in the observation cabin were happy, but before they could high-five and celebrate, the news reported by the radar cabin made everyone's faces change instantly.
600 fighters are making a detour from due north towards their rear at a speed of Mach 2!
Not daring to hesitate, the observer immediately adjusted the optical sight and, based on the information provided by the radar operator, locked the position of the 600 fighters.
However, no matter how much he zoomed, how he pressed his pupils and lenses, he could not see the shadows of the 600 fighters through the rain curtain.
"Can you see it?"
"Damn...... I can't see! ”
Generally speaking, in good weather, the maximum visual distance can reach 9~20 kilometers. However, on a rainy day, this distance may be more than doubled.
But having said that, no matter how fast those 600 fighters fly and how severe the weather affects visual observations, they won't even be blind to the tail flame, right?
Standing in front of the observation system, the observer could not help but begin to doubt life.
In the end, it was the radar that went wrong.
Or is there something wrong with his eyes......
Inside the bridge.
Hearing the report from his subordinates, General McLaen's face instantly appeared with disbelief.
"600 fighters...... How can it be?! ”
Not only him, but almost all the officers standing on the bridge had the same unbelievable expression on their faces.
The staff officer pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice.
"Could it be their trick?"
600 aircraft·· …···
And all at Mach 2.
This amount is exaggerated anyway!
Staring at the flickering signal source on the radar, General McLene's face was cloudy, but the thoughts in his heart were spinning rapidly.
Of course, he also thought that this could be a trick on the part of the natives.
But what's the point?
Even if they managed to divert the Iron Heart's firepower, they would not be able to break through the absolute defenses of the deflection shield.
In the past six months, the natives have tried all kinds of methods.
Whether it's artillery, artillery or rockets...... All of these attacks proved to be pointless in front of their Iron Heart. The officer standing in front of the radar terminal shouted loudly.
"They're detouring back to our southwest, and the source is amplifying ... They're approaching us!
General McLaan immediately ordered.
"Whether it's a decoy or not, anti-aircraft fire is ready, shoot down that swarm of flies for me!"
"Yes!"
The barrels had already locked on the trajectory of the 600 planes, and as the order to fire was given, orange-yellow flames shot out of the barrels and galloped towards the target group on the radar.
However, what was surprising was that the 600 planes continued to fly in formation, neither spreading out nor making evasive maneuvers, and just collided with their barrage.
Looking out of the floor-to-ceiling windows outside the bridge, the dense smoke of the explosion like a city wall, General McLalen narrowed his eyes slightly.
Did it hit?
The radar signal is gone.
But this success is inevitably too smooth.
At this moment, a fluctuating signal suddenly appeared on the radar.
The artillery positions on the ground did not seem to have been completely wiped out, and they were still firing around the airship, but they did not seem to be firing smoke grenades.
Rather, it is a jamming bomb.
A look of surprise appeared in McClen's eyes.
Knowing the use of platinum strips to jam the radar, it seems that these natives still have two more brushes. However, they still underestimated the Iron Heart's radar.
With this level of interference, they can burn through in minutes.
And......
The cooperation of these natives is still weaker.
Those 600 planes have already been destroyed, and even if they fire jamming bombs, it will be too late, and they will only continue to expose the position of the artillery positions on the ground.
Just as McClen was thinking this, twenty-two faint signal sources suddenly appeared in the direction of the airship due south.
They were very close, less than ten kilometers away from the airship, appeared almost suddenly, and flew above the clouds.
The moment he saw this string of signals, General McLaen was slightly stunned, and suddenly reacted.
"Starboard artillery fire ready!"
"Those 600 planes just now were bait! Aim for me to the south! ”
At the same time that the Iron Heart turned its gun, above the thick clouds. The unprofessional anti-steamed bun holding the joystick in his hand stared at the VM on his lap while silently counting down in his heart.
It takes about 17 seconds for the gun to turn 110 degrees......
The artillery on the ground had already begun to fire chaff decoy shells to cover them, but he knew very well that this level of interference would not last long before it would be burned through by the radar on the opposite side.
You don't even have to burn through at all.
The dense firepower was enough to tear them apart along with the cloud of interference.
In the distance, a tracer light had moved through the clouds, exploding in clouds of black smoke in the air.
Deadly shrapnel scraped across the propellers and wings, metal-to-metal collisions were heard constantly, and the fuselage began to shake violently.
Estimating that the time was almost up, the unprofessional anti-steamed bun calmly grabbed the communicator hanging next to him and cut to the broadcast in the cabin.
"This flight has reached the end and we will crash in 10 seconds..." The remaining kilometer is up to you! ”
As the voice fell, the door at the rear of the cabin slowly opened, and the high-speed air flow was also swept into the cabin.
The voice in the communication channel was blown by the air current, but from the two intermittent sentences, he could still hear the indomitable heroism.
"Roger!"
"Leave it to us!"
The airborne troops of the Burning Corps stepped out of the cabin one after another.
Looking at the tracer lights passing through the clouds and the firelight that illuminated the cockpit glass, the corners of the unprofessional anti-steamed mouth curled up with a smile.
Mission accomplished.
However, I probably can't go back.
Thinking of this, he simply switched the communication channel and shouted towards the command. "This is Group B flight formation... …·· Our mission has been accomplished, but the enemy artillery fire has locked on us and there is no way back.
"Before being shot down, let's send the paratrooper brothers on one last ride!" There was no response in the communication channel.
The unprofessional anti-manchus knew in their hearts that most of the artillery fire was sandwiched with a few electromagnetic interference bombs, blocking their communications.
But......
It doesn't matter anymore.
Tossing the communicator aside, he reached out and pressed the button next to the joystick, and the tail end of the transporter began to emit thick black smoke.
At the same time, he clenched the joystick with both hands and yelled at the cockpit, which was already riddled with holes.
"Group B Flight Formation!"
"Pull a cigarette for Lao Tzu to flush ——!"
Even if you can't hear the shout.
The moment he opened the smoke curtain, the 21 "Dragonfly" transport planes that flew with him immediately understood what he meant, and at the same time pulled the smoke and launched a dive.
A rain of orange-yellow bullets flew through the air, lighting up almost the entire sky, losing the protection of the clouds, and the transport planes were soon engulfed in flames.
But their sacrifice was not meaningless.
The billowing black smoke also fell from the sky along with the suicidal dive, like a waterfall flying sideways, pulling a collapsing wall of smoke in the sky.
The observer standing next to the sighting system stared at the sky lit up by artillery fire with his eyes wide open.
He could be sure that the planes that looked like live targets would not escape.
But to his disbelief, those guys didn't intend to run away at all, and actually rushed straight towards them.
At that moment, he saw parachutes through the billowing smoke.
Like a dandelion floating in the fire.
Their lives are burning at a rate visible to the naked eye.
But even so, the flying artillery fire and bullets could not change the direction in which they burned.
Looking at the parachutes floating down from the sky, the gunners standing behind the 100mm anti-aircraft guns had disbelief written in their eyes and muttered dreamily.
“…… Are these people crazy?! ”
Parachute......
It turned out to be a parachute!
These natives actually planned to use this ridiculous thing to climb their steel fortress.
What if a few people were lucky enough to get through their firepower and board their airship?
Even though they had five thousand teams on the ground, there were still three thousand teams on standby on the airship. Dozens or hundreds of ants......
It will be torn apart by their fire in minutes.
Inside the bridge.
Looking at the airborne troops who forced their landing, General McKellen's face was also full of stunned expressions.
Although he didn't know what kind of confidence these people had to dare to force a landing on his airship with this person, he couldn't take it lightly at this moment.
Those natives paid such a big price, desperately trying to send these people to his face, not just to watch a fireworks with him.
Suddenly coming back to his senses, General McLaen shouted and ordered.
"Adjust engine orientation! Aim me to the heavens! ”
The adjutant also quickly came back to his senses and took orders.
"Yes!"
As the order was given, the engines deployed on both sides of the airship slowly turned in direction, and the propellers were aimed directly above.
The engine starts and the propeller begins to spin.
The huge air flow blew from the bottom up, pushing the airship gently downward, and blowing the parachutes in the air out of direction.
Seeing that the brothers of the Burning Corps were in crisis, "Lingyun", who had already left the battlefield, suddenly returned to the battlefield.
At this point, it had already thrown away the electronic jamming pod.
It no longer emits any signals, like a dagger hidden in the darkness, silently but rapidly approaching its target.
“…… The speed at which the raindrops fall is 30 to 60 yards. ”
Holding the joystick with both hands, Luo Yu's eyes were locked on the row of engines on the right side of the airship, and he muttered softly.
"The trigger limit of the deflection shield should be around 60 yards."
"Just slow down the moment you get close to the edge of the shield......"
"You should be able to get in!"
Although it was also the first time he had tried this kind of messy operation.
But the forward-swept wing aircraft ......
It should be possible!
Counting down the time to approach the shield in his heart, Luo Yu gritted his teeth and quickly pulled up the lever while pushing the throttle valve!
The nose of the plane jerked upward.
The tail of the plane ran to the front in an instant.
And at this moment, he carried the falling feather that almost made people faint, and suddenly pushed down the afterburner valve next to his right leg.
The arc of fire that swayed in the engine was like a flame, but at this moment, the scorching light lit up in the engine.
The plane's speed plummeted, and the violently shaky forward-swept wings were torn to pieces by the high-speed air current.
Before he even had time to make a popping sound, Luo Yu felt his eyes go black and disconnected from the game.
The unbalanced fuselage rolled like a fallen leaf and continued forward, but instead of being pushed aside by the deflector shield, it was swept into the propeller of the starboard wing of the airship along with the shattered wing.
The explosion of fire broke the wing on the right side of the airship, and the unbalanced airship tilted in an instant.
Ye Shi, who finally stabilized the parachute, looked at the explosion of fire, and his eyes widened in surprise.
"it?!"
Cobra maneuver?!
He wasn't the only one who was surprised.
And the soldiers and officers aboard the Iron Heart.
They didn't even see how close the plane was.
In the final moment, it slowed down through the shield and used itself as a bullet to crash into their starboard wing.
The right side lost power, and in order to avoid rolling over, the Iron Heart had to turn off its engine on the left side, and the pressure on the airborne troops who were landing plummeted.
However, the threat of death did not stop there.
Even having entered the blind spot of the firing of 100mm anti-aircraft guns, even if the propellers of the opposing side had been forced to close, there were still a dozen 10mm machine guns aimed at them from all directions.
Exoskeletons are somewhat bulletproof, but that doesn't mean they're immune to bullets.
The boundaries of the deflection shield had been crossed, and a surge of fire was pouring in.
More than half of the more than 500 airborne troops have been killed or wounded so far.
Many of them were shot into sieves in the sky, floating to the ground, or hanging from the hedgehog-like barrels of the airships.
Looking directly at the flickering firelight and the last thirty meters away, Lao Bai pulled out the dagger hanging on the chest of the heavy cavalry's exoskeleton and let out a charging roar at the almost paralyzed communication equipment.
"Even if our flesh burns out before it hits—"
"We're going to sprinkle burning embers into their eyes, too!"
"Cut the paracord!"
As the words fell, he swung the blade in his hand, slicing the parachute wrapped around the exoskeleton and passing through the raging rain of bullets.
Thirty meters is a fleeting distance.
His feet slammed into the top of the airship, smashing two dents into the impassable steel armor.
Apparently.
It is not as invincible as it seems.
"Target 400mm main gun!"
Pulling out the rifle on his back, he yelled at the communication channel. "All those who can still move—"
"Keep going!"
1 second to remember:
