Volume 1: Rainbow of the Old World Chapter 5. The Fire Burns the Cloud
Lu Yuan took out a box of drums and stuffed them into the attached loader on the back of the mecha. Zhoumeng's electrical technology has always been leading, and it is reflected in fully functional and highly automated soldier equipment. For example, Lu Yuan only
The battle suit data needs to be linked in, and the neural connection system of the mecha will be adapted to the driver's control. If such neural technology is placed in the empire, the individual equipment must be expanded to the Titan pilot.
The shell casings in the square were shaking slightly, and the dust spread lightly. Shen Zihua, who was next to him, quickly caught up and asked in a low voice: "Boss, why are so few of our pilot troops airborne? I remember that the fleet flagship Corona was attached.
Three pilot brigades."
Lu Yuan was silent and did not answer. A space battleship has a full complement of more than 600,000 people, and the entire expedition fleet has more than two million personnel. Although Lu Yuan was promoted to captain at a young age, an officer like him is enough
There were tens of thousands of them. Of course Lu Yuan would not say that he did not know why only a dozen main battle Titans came to such a key point as the Star Monument Fortress. He did not need to think about the generals' decisions, so Lu Yuan raised his chin.
Yang said in a low voice: "Remember, the sky is ours."
The young recruit looked up at the colorful night sky rendered by tracer bombs, illumination bombs, and large-caliber artillery shells. The enemy and our fighter planes were fighting inextricably, desperately fighting for air supremacy, while vultures and albatross were constantly circling in the atmosphere.
The steel birds with extremely large belly are constantly waiting for opportunities to release their powerful tactical drones.
As for going to the next level?
Yes, that is, the new ocean of mankind.
War is constant, but the form of war is always changing.
Tens of thousands of drones outside the Star Monument Fortress formed a peripheral barrier. The long-range artillery bombardment organized by the Imperial Army in a hurry was all resisted by these little guys. They knew clearly that the interceptors of the Imperial Land-based Air Force had already taken off, and their number was at a high level.
The fleet and air force, which was absolutely at a disadvantage, were still risking their lives to escort the transport fleet through the blockade net and deliver precious reinforcements.
There was no snow around the Misaka railgun, and the gun crew members wearing exoskeletons also felt unbearably hot. The faster and faster firing speed almost reached the railgun's power storage limit, all relying on the fortress power supply.
In the distance, there seemed to be sparkling waves, which was a sign of the arrival of the imperial mecha troops painted in winter. Even further away, a majestic figure that almost connected the sky and the earth was slowly approaching.
Ivan the Terrible.
Lu Yuan leaned against the wall, squeezing the trigger with his fingertips, feeling numb and cold, looking through the gap at the Imperial soldiers under the fortress who were still extremely indifferent to life and death, even though they had been accurately hit by artillery fire.
"Save ammunition and fire when you get close!" Lu Yuan pressed down the intercom and ordered. Then he picked up the plasma cannon that was changed to sniper mode and said to Shen Zihua: "Boy, I'll give you a chance, come here and do it.
My observing hand."
Lu Yuan lay down in a shadow, turned on hyperspectral perspective, activated environmental camouflage, and a few faint ripples appeared. That was the effect of the optical coating on the surface of the mecha. Lu Yuan subconsciously slowed down his breathing, closed one eye, and then
Holding the high-power sight, Shen Zihua took over several reconnaissance drones and conducted priority guidance.
"Pay attention to the A3 area at 12 o'clock. It is suspected to be the enemy's fire guide. Search the coordinates. The approximate direction is as follows..."
The hyperspectral light green field of vision was reduced by Lu Yuan to eliminate non-designated area targets. Turning the magnification wheel, Lu Yuan clearly saw the swaying transmission antenna outside a certain bomb crater. In the crater was indeed the fire guide of the Imperial Army.
This kid was very good at hiding. Without the double comparison of drones and satellites, it would be difficult for Lu Yuan to find the alien in the vast snow.
The plasma primer increases the pressure inside the barrel to a terrifying level, thus giving the armor-piercing projectile an extremely terrifying muzzle velocity. The recoil force that can break a person's shoulder is rebounded fiercely, but it is not worth mentioning in front of a mecha.
exist
A heartbeat later, thousands of meters away, a large crater was created in the ice and snow outside the communication mecha.
At the same time, the gun was reset, and a shell popped out of the ejection window and fell into the collection bag. No one noticed that a certain shadow on the Star Monument Fortress seemed to be distorted. Unless you were very close, you could hear the shadow.
There was a mute "ding" sound faintly. As for visual inspection, even if you were very close, you might not be able to spot the camouflaged mecha in a stationary state.
"The target disappeared, judged, died, and the fight was beautiful."
"Concentrate on what you're doing."
"yes."
Lu Yuan would not waste precious sniper bullets on low-value targets. The imperial soldiers in blue-gray military uniforms fell in pieces on the ice on the fortress canal, no different from the animals being pushed into the slaughterhouse. Lu Yuan only picked those slaughterhouse owners.
.
"Command type Flood mecha has been found in area A3 and has been marked." Shen Zihua said silently. Although the battlefield was extremely noisy, the two of them still turned on the throat identifier and only moved their mouths to avoid sonar scanning by enemy personnel.
The coordinate information was transmitted back to Lu Yuan's mecha central control. He quickly locked onto a Flood mecha thousands of meters away from the fortress surrounded by a large number of followers. As soon as Lu Yuan turned the sniper cannon, the command mecha looked like
After receiving the anti-detection warning, he immediately retreated. How could Lu Yuan let this big fish run away? He immediately pulled the trigger!
"It's off, the target is moving towards the antenna base station, the direction is as follows..." This shot scared the enemy and ran away in panic.
Lu Yuan eliminated the irrelevant targets of the hyperspectral perspective and turned the magnification wheel. Lu Yuan locked on the enemy command mecha that insisted on showing off at the front line. He slightly changed the parameters and painted the outside of the next bullet's core black.
The depleted uranium armor-piercing bullet burst out of the air and hit accurately, but the subordinates nearby covered him like crazy. His master died, and all the subordinates who were slaves of the imperial nobles had to be buried with him.
"The target seems to have been successfully transferred?" Shen Zihua hesitated.
Lu Yuan lowered his gun and said calmly: "Forget it, let's inform the gun position."
So the Misaka railgun on the fortress wall simply bombarded the area marked by Lu Yuan for two rounds. If the problem can be solved with cannonballs, don't use bullets to solve it.
Not long after Lu Yuan's happy time of picking and choosing, the communication channel was filled with high and low noise waves. Lu Yuan had to turn on full-effect noise reduction. When he saw Shen Zihua doing the same,
An idea flashed through Lu Yuan's mind, and regardless of the danger of being discovered, he roared with the mecha's loudspeaker.
"Pulse wave! Avoid the bombardment!" As soon as Lu Yuan finished speaking, a brilliant blue aurora erupted in the sky, and all the enemy and friendly drones intertwined suddenly stopped.
Drones are a panacea for the battlefield. If they are assembled in sufficient numbers, they can even withstand artillery attacks. Both sides of the war know this well. Once the pulse wave breaks out, it must be the prelude to a large-scale artillery attack!
The falling drone hit the city wall like hail, and the communication channel was paralyzed. The officers opened their throats and ordered the soldiers to withdraw to the fortifications. Lu Yuan picked up the railgun in one hand and called the paratroopers who were reluctant to give up their heavy weapons.
They hurriedly left first. How could the paratroopers abandon Lu Yuan? They actually called for more companions and worked hard to drag the cannon back before the first plasma cannon shell fell!
The roar of the heavy artillery was still very clear through the fortifications. Just when Lu Yuan was about to curse these ignorant people, when the words came to his mouth, dozens and hundreds of pairs of eyes looked at him with dirty faces. Lu Yuan suddenly choked.
Stop, jump out of the mecha, sit down cross-legged, take out a cigarette, and shout: "Damn, what are you looking at? There's fire!"
Continuous and dense explosions shook the fortress. He took out a cigarette and lit it. Only the heavier and spicy smoke could cover up the unspeakable uneasiness. The fire cloud snatched from the Marines burned fiercely, and coughs were heard in the dark air-raid shelter.
One after another
, the dark red color of the cigarette butt is the brightest color. It feels like that time in the Sentinel Satellite System. The Imperial Army bombarded them day and night. The best moment was crawling out of the tunnel between bombardments and smoking a cigarette in the sun.
..
However, "Recruit Danzi" Shen Zihua couldn't bear it anymore, slapping his hands and saying, "Boss, when did you start smoking this kind of cigarette? It's too strong."
"Boy, are you teaching me how to do things?" Lu Yuan replied.
Shen Zihua was refused by Lu Yuan and lit up a cigarette. The little kid from Zhoumeng Qingji Star took a few puffs unconvinced, and as expected, he coughed heartbreakingly, making everyone laugh, which was a bit diluted.
To ease the tense atmosphere, Shen Zihua drank a bottle of water in one breath to calm down.
"I have been to Qingji Planet, which is a satellite of the main star of the Eternal God. Qingji Planet has the most beautiful girls. Have you ever hooked up with any stupid fool who was blinded by lard?" There was a black-faced man.
Walking past, it was Zhang Yueyang, the meanest talker in the 28th Parachute Group. This guy squatted and laughed.
"Time flies so fast, my friend. You don't want to go home when the war is over and see that silly Baitian has given birth to two babies and calls them daddy." As soon as he heard the word "girl", he was filled with blood and blood all day long.
The men who were accompanied by the fire suddenly became energetic and mocked Shen Zihua unscrupulously. Anyway, this boy only joined last month as a supplementary soldier. He was truly at the bottom of the food chain.
"Then have you fooled one yet?" Shen Zihua became angry and counterattacked.
Zhang Yueyang pulled out the necklace and shook it, revealing a group photo inside. He grinned silently and said: "Nonsense, who am I, your brother? I don't leave any seeds when I go out, and I go home to the grass. You kid can't avoid the question.
Have you seduced her? You should be raised or raised, or if this battle is over, I will find a girl for you to have fun with? Oh, maybe that girl will prepare a small red envelope of 66 yuan, hahahahaha!
!”
The paratroopers laughed wildly, ignoring Shen Zihua's depressed desire to crawl into the cracks in the ground, and said without confidence: "Uh... yes!"
Everyone laughed for a while, that was enough. Lu Yuan winked at Zhang Yueyang, who had no choice but to go over and say: "What's so embarrassing about this? Launch a fierce attack on whoever you like, orbital assault, fast! Accurate! Cruel! It's best to be like this
Just like the boss, he secretly captured the heart of a goddess from the Corona's pilot team..."
"Ahem!" Unexpectedly, Lu Yuan slapped the back of Zhang Yueyang's neck vigorously, and said seriously: "Sergeant Zhang, I usually trust you so much, you can't chew the back of my tongue, so be it, you
Go to Lieutenant Yuedong and ask him to assign you some tasks to train you."
Zhang Yueyang had just slipped away in despair, but Shen Zihua whispered like a thief: "Boss, is it true or not?"
Lu Yuan chuckled in a low voice and said, "Go to the Corona and find out for yourself."
During the bragging and spanking, the fortress gradually stopped shaking, and the bombardment was coming to an end. Lu Yuan scratched the debris on his head and shouted: "Girls, wipe your butts! Stop being self-conscious! Let's start fighting! Girls!"
The paratroopers returned to the position before the bombardment. The top of the fortress was in a mess. Under the thick smoke and fog that covered the sky, there was an overwhelming avalanche. The gunners once again hurriedly pulled out the Misaka railgun. More than half of the artillery that could not be pulled back to the fortification were destroyed.
It was fried to the point where there was no residue left.
"Boom!" All the soldiers on the Star Monument Fortress trembled in unison.
"Boom!" Misaka shook the muzzle when he fired, and it deflected to the other side, blowing up several Imperial Flood mechas.
It's not a shelling.
It's Ivan the Terrible, an artificial Titan, the largest humanoid machine in human history.
Chapter completed!
