Chapter 107: Lonely and Retrograde
"I can finally see Lao Ji, I haven't seen him for almost a month, and I miss him a lot."
"He's an old man? Su Chuanyun, I recorded it. ”
"Andre, you are so shameless, you learn from the deaf and the crippled, otherwise you will have no friends like this."
"If I can become Lao Ji's most valued apprentice, I would rather have no friends."
"Dreaming." The cripple sneered: "Lao Ji's most valued apprentice is definitely not you. ”
"I can fight the four of us the most, although I have never seen a blind man or a cripple, but I certainly can't fight it." Andrei argued: "Who else could it be but me?" ”
"The most capable of fighting is not necessarily the most important, besides, if you really want to count it, Major Han Li is also Lao Ji's apprentice, and Major Jackson, he also said that he wants to worship Lao Ji as a teacher." The deaf man asked in a calm tone, "What, do you think you can fight better than the two of them?" ”
"Is it interesting that you three Longzhou people bullied me as a Xiongzhou person?" Andre said dissatisfiedly: "Wait, I will sue Lao Ji in a while, let my master make the decision for me, and expel all three of you rebels from the master." ”
Four Federation mechs are running on the endless orange land, their task is to pick up the Ji Xinghe group from Base 6, compared to Base 6, which is likely to have been discovered, the location information of Base 5 has been well hidden, and no trace of Imperial mecha and detection equipment has ever been found within the warning range.
So this mission is easy for them, and it is difficult to detect their whereabouts in an empire that does not have reconnaissance satellites in alien near-Earth space. It won't take long for the mechs and the traces left by the convoy to be covered by local dust storms.
"The predetermined coordinates are about to be reached."
The prompts from the navigation system made their mood more relaxed, running on the unobstructed Great Plains, it was difficult for the communication signal to be affected, they could directly contact Base Five, and they could also establish contact with other units of the Federation on alien planets through Base Five.
On the alien planet, the Federation's communication control is very strict, although the Federation humans are not the same species as the Imperial Orangutan and Monkey at all, and there is no possibility of human rape in theory, but there is no absolute in everything.
Not only is there communication control on the alien planet, but after the war with the empire began, the communication on the Azure star was also strictly controlled. The equipment that can transmit communication signals to outer space is almost extinct in the market, and some of the people who know how to make the relevant equipment have been closely monitored, and even the professional disciplines of relevant schools and related tutorials on the Internet have all been banned.
There are many people who believe that the reason why the empire appeared on the alien planet is because it received a large number of signals from humans on the Azure Star that they once sent to outer space.
"There are still three kilometers left, and we will be able to contact Lao Ji directly through the shortwave communication channel."
"Well, I don't know if Shin Shin is in the mecha or in the transport vehicle, if it's in the mecha, you can also say hello to Shin Shin."
"It should be in the transport vehicle, the mecha doesn't have any ride comfort at all, so Lao Ji is reluctant to let Xinxin suffer."
"But I heard that the Xingyue built by Lao Ji and Ensign Shen Mu has a seat specially designed for Xinxin in the cockpit, and with Lao Ji's ability, it should be fine to add some shock absorption parts."
"Can Xingyue still fight?"
"Xingyue is definitely not good, it is made of discarded parts, if Lao Ji drives Xingyue, I guess even I can't beat it."
"That's right...... it! ”
Andrei, who was running at the forefront, inadvertently glanced up at the sky, and suddenly exclaimed: "Hidden, immediately hidden, look at the sky." ”
By the time his voice rang out in the shared shortwave communication channel of the four mechs, the mechs he controlled had stopped running and then fell to the ground, and the other three moved just as quickly, first lying down to hide before looking at the sky through the camera behind their heads.
It was two flying objects that looked like two small black dots on the ground to the naked eye, and the focus was changed through the mech's high-definition camera, and they confirmed that there were two spaceships in the sky for the first time.
"It's a battleship, one of ours, one of the Empire."
"They're fighting."
"No, our ships seem to be at a disadvantage."
"They're flying at lower and lower altitudes."
The four mechs all had orange-red livery, and when lying on the ground, they appeared to merge with the alien land, and did not attract the attention of the two fighting space warships in the sky.
It is said that it is a battleship, but in fact, it is a spaceship with increased weapons and equipment, and there is no essential difference in performance parameters from those spaceships that transport supplies.
"Why do we only have one, our support?"
"Isn't space and sky our home turf? Isn't it completely occupied by us? ”
"What to do, what to do."
"Contact the base, contact the base immediately."
After a brief discussion, the four of them were about to contact Base No. 5, but received a message from Base No. 5: "The Space Battleship of the Longzhou Oriental Canglong Fleet Xinyue Fox encountered an Imperial battleship, and the engine was damaged and was about to land forcibly, the coordinates are expected to have been sent, and the error is less than five kilometers, please go to support immediately." ”
Without any hesitation, the four mechwarriors gave up their concealment and rushed to the new coordinates displayed on the navigation system. As they ran, both space battleships began to force their landings with black smoke in tow, and the Federation's Heart Moon Fox space battleship did not lose, it also destroyed the engines of the Imperial space battleships while also destroying them.
"It's a pity that I can't see Lao Ji anymore." Su Chuanyun's tone was very regretful, not like he was saying that he wouldn't see Ji Xinghe this time.
Everyone else understood what he meant, compared to the armed forces in the space battleship, the battle of the four mechs was just a drop in the bucket. It would be fine if the Imperial Battleship was seriously damaged during the forced landing, but they could clearly see that the landing speed of the Imperial Space Battleship would not cause it to be seriously damaged.
"I don't want to see Lao Ji at this time, if he comes, when will I be able to become a first-class mecha warrior."
"Level 1? Be bold, this time all four of us can become super-grade. ”
"Okay, be bold." The deaf man shouted: "Lao Ji said, human beings have no limits, and we have no limits." ”
"Rush rush."
……
"Why?"
Dr. Steffen was the first to ask, and everyone nervous as the convoy began to turn.
In the reconnaissance vehicle responsible for liaising with Base Five, someone replied: "There was an encounter between the Heart Moon Fox Space Battleship and an Imperial Warship, and they both had to forcibly land on the surface, and we had to avoid the war zone. ”
"The Heart Moon Fox? And what about the Dragon Continent Eastern Canglong Fleet where it is located? Come and bang that Imperial warship. ”
"The Empire has launched a full-scale invasion attack, and the Eastern Canglong Fleet has been put into battle and is not capable of supporting."
"What about the Southern Suzaku Fleet? And what about the Western White Tiger fleet? And the Northern Xuanwu Fleet, the four major space fleets of Longzhou have all been put into battle? ”
"Yes, all of them have been put into battle, not only the space fleet of Dragon Continent, but all the fleets in the alien planet have been put into battle. The Imperial Orangutan seems to have gone mad, and the Base Five staff says they will do whatever it takes to find the precise location of Base Three and then destroy Base Three. ”
This news is still confidential information for a short period of time, but the permissions of these people who can be transferred in advance are very high, so the relevant personnel are not shy when they talk about it.
There was silence in the communication channel, and only the convoy that had completed the turn continued towards the location of Base Five.
Ji Xinghe, who hesitated for a while, finally couldn't help but ask, "What about the four mecha that took us?" ”
"They have gone to support the Heart Moon Fox, but don't worry, although there is no more support in the short term, the reconnaissance satellite has mobilized some resources, and now it can be determined that there are no imperial troops within a radius of three hundred kilometers around us."
This was indeed Ji Xinghe's concern, but not all, he asked again, "How many mechs are in that Imperial battleship?" How many are there in the Heart Moon Fox? ”
"I don't know, I can't answer."
The communication channel was quiet again for five seconds, and a voice rang out: "There are seventy-two mechs in the Heart Moon Fox, if there is no more serious damage when it forcibly lands." Under normal circumstances, the Imperial Space Battleship has at least two complete mecha formations, which is sixty. But I'm not sure that in the event of a full-scale attack, the Empire's space warships will increase their forces. ”
Seventy-six against sixty is a numerical advantage, but what if there are more than sixty mechs in the Imperial Space Battleship? Ji Xinghe's heart struggled.
Shen Mu's voice sounded in the communication channel: "Excuse me, who are you?" ”
"I'm Wang Peng, with the rank of colonel, and I belong to the Northern Xuanwu Fleet of the Federation Dragon Continent."
"Oh oh oh ......" Shen Mu exclaimed, "You are the captain of the Void Sun Rat Space Battleship?" ”
"Yes."
"Then how do you ......?"
"Excuse me." Ji Xinghe directly interrupted Shen Mu's question, and asked himself: "Judging from the current situation, after they forcibly land, can the weapons on the space battleship still be used?" I mean, those weapons other than mechs. ”
"You can use some of it, but the outcome depends on our mecha warriors." Wang Peng replied: "The weapon systems carried on the space warships are all prepared for space warfare, air battles, and air raids, and they cannot exert their due power after forced landing...... These weapons pose a threat to mechs, but are not much of a threat in the case of a gathering fight. ”
Wang Peng said a lot, Ji Xinghe remained silent throughout the whole process, and when Wang Peng finished speaking, Ji Xinghe was still silent.
Shen Mu sensed that something was wrong, Su He glanced at Xinxin, and hesitated at the walkie-talkie: "Lao Ji, you ......"
"Shin Shin, can you hear me?" Ji Xinghe's voice suddenly sounded.
Ji Rong Xinyue, who had been silent and was honestly sitting in her seat, suddenly hugged Su He's hand and pulled it towards herself, because Su He had a walkie-talkie in her hand.
"Grandpa, I can hear you."
"En......" Ji Xinghe didn't know what to say.
"Grandpa." Ji Rong Xinyue let go of Su He's hand, lowered her head and clenched her fists: "Can you ...... Can you go and blow up the heads of those orangutans? ”
Ji Xinghe took a deep breath: "Yes." ”
"Grandpa, you must ......" Ji Rong Xinyue's voice trembled a little, as if she was forcibly controlling her emotions and not crying: "Grandpa, Xinxin wants to eat chocolate, can you come back and help me eat half of it?" If I eat too much on my own, I'm afraid my teeth will break. ”
"Okay, wait for Grandpa to come back and help you eat half of it."
The Federation 16th generation mecha running next to the convoy suddenly began to turn, and two voices rang out one after the other.
"Sergeant Ji Xinghe, please don't force me to lock up your mecha."
"Instructor, wait for me, I'll go with you."
Neither of these voices could stop Ji Xinghe, who had already completed his turn, from running, and his voice sounded in the communication channel.
"You can lock this Federation mech, but you can't lock my Xingyue. Left-handed brother, help me take care of Xinxin. There are also Su He and Shen Mu, please. ”
The left-handed brother had just manipulated his mecha to complete the turn, but he stopped because of Ji Xinghe's words, and stood in place looking at the back of the sixteenth-generation mecha of the Federation, which was also the back of Ji Xinghe.
The convoy also stopped, and everyone leaned down the window to look at the solitary mech, which had no teammates because its driver was bent on going his own way. It carried two short knives at its waist, a shield in its left hand and a knife in its right, and turned its back on the convoy and walked away.
No one locked it with permission, because everyone knew that they could lock the mech, but they couldn't lock the people inside the mech.
