Chapter 108: Because He is Ji Xinghe
The two space battleships landed on the alien surface with a bang, the distance between them was only about two kilometers, and the hatches of both sides were opened as soon as possible, and the mecha warriors who had already begun to prepare when they were sure to land forcibly rushed out directly with their mechas.
Seventy-two mechas, two complete federal mecha formations, one is quite a few, and the damage of the Xinyue Fox in the air battle is not serious, so they have to go all out to ensure that the Xinyue Fox is not destroyed by the Imperial mecha.
The number of spaceships in the Federation is very small, and the number of spaceships that can be converted into space warships is even less, and there are only two real space fleets in the entire Federation, one is the Longzhou Space Fleet, which is composed of the four fleets of the Eastern Canglong, the Southern Vermilion Bird, the Western White Tiger, and the Northern Xuanwu.
The other is the Five Oceans Space Fleet, which is composed of five fleets: the Peace Fleet, the Atlas Fleet, the Eritrean Fleet, the Arctic Fleet, and the Antarctic Fleet.
Each fleet has only seven space warships, a total of sixty-three, and the total number of spaceships currently owned by the Federation, including these space warships, is only ninety-seven, all of which were built with a lot of resources.
Like mechs, they can be repaired if they are broken, but if they are destroyed, the wreckage can only be recycled as scrap metal.
"Mecha formation defensive formation."
"Armored vehicles sortie."
"Anti-aircraft cannons in place."
"The anti-missile system was successfully activated."
"The missile launcher is in place, and it has locked on to the target space warship and requested an attack command."
"Attack now."
"The tactical squad is in position, requesting an attack order."
"Free Fire, Target Imperial Space Battleship, Target Imperial Mech."
"Attention all ranged combat units, I ask you to immediately implement fire coverage on them, give me a fight."
The rumbling cannon fire suddenly sounded, and the Heart Moon Fox, which had completed the landing first, took the lead in launching an attack on the Imperial Space Battleship. But the Imperial warships were also prepared before landing, and their air defense and anti-missile systems played a role in the first place, blocking most of the firepower from the long-range combat units on the Heart Moon Fox, and launching a counterattack at the same time.
The distance of two kilometers is not close, nor is it far, and many of the long-range attack weapons used by the two sides can exceed this distance when they were designed and manufactured. However, because the atmospheric environment above the alien planet is extremely thin and lacks oxygen, even if the shells and missiles used by both sides have their own oxidizers, and some explosions do not require oxygen, all of them can successfully explode on the alien planet, but the power generated during the explosion is not comparable to that of the Azure Star and the Imperial Star.
The shock wave from the explosion is severely weakened, and it is difficult to successfully conduct heat energy without enough air, because air is a very important medium for energy propagation. The only aspect that can be considered a power boost is the kinetic energy carried by the debris produced when the bomb explodes due to the low gravity and extremely low air resistance.
But this kinetic energy can only work at close range, because the faster the speed, the greater the drag.
"Prepare for battle."
When the roar of the artillery fire began to ring intermittently, the Imperial mechs rushed towards the Heart Moon Fox in formation.
"Ninety, three complete Imperial mech formations."
"The numbering is complete, the task assignment is complete, please pay attention to all units."
Seventy-two Federation mechs did not choose to defend the location of the Heart Moon Fox, and they began to charge in groups. They were not the only ones involved in the battle, but also those armed armored vehicles, as well as elite soldiers wearing bulky protective suits, who used individual weapons such as guns to follow the rear and sides of the Federation mecha formation and also began to charge, and immediately launched an attack to support the Federation mecha formation after reaching a suitable distance.
But the empire has more than just mechas, they also have soldiers wearing protective suits, in comparison, the protective suits they wear are lighter than the federal soldiers, their average physical fitness is several times that of the federal soldiers, so their mobility and combat effectiveness are stronger.
This is not a close battle, with a noticeable gap in the number of mechs and soldiers on both sides.
And the most desperate thing is that the Heart Moon Fox can't get the support of the nearest Federation No. 5 base, compared to a space warship, and even compared to the Eastern Canglong Fleet where the Heart Moon Fox is located, the location information of the No. 5 base is more important.
The nearest blockade and barracks were also fighting, and they had no support from the ground, so they had to wait for the Federation fleet to have space warships that could complete the scheduled mission before coming to their aid.
But they did not despair, and they began to fight with all their might.
The captain of the Heart Moon Fox was not in the bridge, but after landing, he came to the Combat Information Center (CIC), and looked at the various information displayed on the screen in front of him, and his expression was calm.
"Prepare nuclear warheads, apply for permission to detonate, and if they rush over, detonate them."
"Yes."
Without any hesitation, the personnel involved immediately began to prepare, and none of the relevant personnel sitting in front of the consoles and screens had any change because of the captain's words, and they continued to participate in the encounter in the way they did best.
Even if they knew very well that the consequence of detonating the nuclear warhead was that all of them would die, and those soldiers and mecha warriors outside the Heart Moon Fox would die.
Are they afraid? Of course they are afraid, but they will not question, they will not complain, and they will not regret it, because if the nuclear warhead is detonated at such a distance, the Imperial space battleship and all the Imperial orangutans and monkeys will all die with them.
The explosion of a nuclear weapon does not require oxygen, it can also explode in a cosmic vacuum, and without the barrier of the atmosphere, the fireball produced by the explosion will expand to a much greater distance than when it was detonated on the Azure Star.
In 1962, the Eagle Island people conducted a nuclear test at an altitude of 97.5 kilometers above the surface, where the atmosphere was already very thin and there were no mushroom clouds, but the resulting fireball rose to an altitude of 201 kilometers above the surface in 30 minutes, and the final altitude was 297 kilometers.
In the case of control equivalent, all life will be lost within ten kilometers.
"Report, support has arrived."
"Where did it come from?"
"From Base Five, four mechas, level ......"
"Nonsense, contact the person in charge of Base 5 for me and ask him if he is crazy to send someone to support?"
"They didn't send it, it's the four mechs that were originally on a mission in this area, because we changed their mission."
"......" Captain was silent for a few seconds, "Let them go." ”
"Yes...... They have appeared in the enemy's field of vision, and the enemy has split six mechs to meet them. ”
"Well, good luck to them, and good luck to us."
The captain of the Heart Moon Fox looked at the picture displayed on the screen, the four Federation mechs that were about to be besieged by six Imperial mechs, and suddenly regretted his decision: They shouldn't have chosen to land in this area, about ten kilometers away, wouldn't they have come so fast?
He did not hesitate to order to prepare to detonate the nuclear bomb, but regretted it because Su Chuanyun and others were about to die, this contrast is actually not strange, because the Heart Moon Fox and all the people in the Heart Moon Fox are a whole, they don't need to say that they live and die together, but they will choose to live and die together.
"Report, there's support again, a mech."
"Where did it come from?"
"Base Six transfers the escort mechs of the convoy."
"Nonsense, it's all nonsense, let him get out, get out of here."
"Yes...... Reported, Base Five replied that they were unable to force the mech to retreat. ”
"What do you mean? Could it be an ace mech? No, it can't be, it's impossible for an ace mecha warrior to perform an escort mission, is it the kind of super-grade mecha warrior who is close to the ace? ”
Thinking of a certain possibility, the captain of the Heart Moon Fox suddenly had the hope that the role that a powerful super-grade mecha warrior could play in such a cluster mecha battle was too great, and it was even enough to change the outcome of the outcome.
"No, it's a first-class mecha warrior."
"Then why can't you force him to evacuate?"
Base 5 replied...... Because he is Ji Xinghe. ”
"Ji Xinghe? Who is Ji Xinghe? ”
The captain of the Heart Moon Fox didn't know Ji Xinghe, "The Old Man and the Sea of Stars" was broadcast on the Azure Star, and the vast majority of people who knew Ji Xinghe on the alien planet were at Base No. 6, a small number were at Base No. 3, and a very small number were by the side of Major Han Li and Major Jackson.
"I found out, he is...... He is a first-class mecha warrior with twelve gold stars, he is also a professional technical sergeant mechanic, and he is also a specially appointed combat instructor in the training area of the former base six. ”
"So is he a mechanic, a mechwarrior, or a combat instructor? Why can't he be commanded? ”
"Report, our side damaged seven mechs in battle and destroyed six enemy mechs."
In a few short sentences, serious battle damage had already appeared, and the captain of the Heart Moon Fox no longer paid attention to the five mechs that had come from support. Since you can't go, since you don't want to go, you can only wish them good luck, and you can only wish everyone good luck.
But will good luck really come?
Ji Xinghe is coming.
He hadn't turned on the full power state before, so his speed was not fast, but he was only a few minutes slower than Su Chuanyun and the others, because the two spaceships landed in the direction where Su Chuanyun and the others flew over their heads before the convoy was located.
Because the convoy turned ahead of time, he couldn't see the two ships, but when Ji Xinghe turned to run, he could see the direction clearly.
The shortwave communication channel was connected, and Ji Xinghe received instructions from the relevant personnel of the Xinyue Fox, so he began to charge, targeting the location of Su Chuanyun's four people and four armors, and he was incorporated into this temporary team, and the person who issued this order did not know that Su Chuanyun, Andre, Deaf, and Cripple were themselves members of Ji Xinghe's team in Shen Mu's plan.
Four-on-six, Su Chuanyun and the others are pulling to the limit, their combat goal is not to break these six imperial mechas, as long as they can drag more with less, it is a successful support.
"I'm about to lose it, I'll die first, when you see Lao Ji, remember to help me say sorry, because my life was saved by him and lost by me."
Su Chuanyun was ready to sacrifice himself again to create opportunities for his teammates, and when Andre and the others, who were also about to scold angrily, their ears rang with Ji Xinghe's voice.
"Listen to my command, the combat goal, all annihilation."
