Chapter 301 Counterattack (End)
However, before Salmud could take a breath, a fire broke out not far away. In the swelling of the fire clouds of "Thunder Wings" exploded. Five Viking fighters flashed like silver swords that broke through huge waves, instantly approaching the satellite cluster, pouring a total of 50 missiles from head to tail on the stormy kz-78.
On the central large screen, the flames were like the sea water that spread across the beach at high tide, quickly connecting into a line. KZ-78's nearly one kilometer long body fell into a sea of fire, and the vigorous flames seemed to rolling waves of fire, spraying large clumps of debris around.
Finally, after a dazzling fire broke out, kz-78 ushered in its most brilliant moment. The instantaneous thrust generated by the explosion of the Zero Source core tore the entire satellite apart. A wreck of 200 meters fell to the ground of Rector at an extremely fast speed, and a wreck of more than 400 meters fell to one side and flew out at a huge angular speed.
A large number of metal fragments of varying lengths swept across hundreds of kilometers nearby areas. A large number of missiles, the fighter jets could not dodge and were hit by the debris and exploded and caught fire. A Viking fighter was hit by the debris and the flight was unbalanced. Just as the second fragment was about to hit the cockpit, suddenly, a stream of light flashed by, and the damaged Viking fighter disappeared out of thin air.
"How could this happen?" Salmud grabbed the railing in front of him to stabilize his body. The high-speed debris generated by the KZ-78 explosion hit the outer armor of the command satellite, and the entire ground was trembling.
The aftermath of the kz-78 explosion lasted for about 1 minute. When the vibration from his feet gradually subsided, Salmud hurriedly looked up at the monitor array.
It was pitch black, and the entire surveillance module had all lost signals.
"What happened? What happened!" Salmus' angrily roared throughout the hall.
A female officer in the corner suddenly stood up and said with a big change: "Go... Colonel... Come... Come... Fragments are coming..."
At this time, the light and shadow of the large central screen flashed, and the debris of a satellite that occupied most of the picture became larger and larger.
"This... this is..." Everyone was stunned. The center of the outer armor of the wreckage was clearly marked with "kz-56". At this moment, these five characters were like a face full of sneering, mocking their incompetence.
Dong! Hehe...
There was only a muffled sound, and a violent shaking came from the feet. Everyone's bodies involuntarily tilted to the side. Then, the lamps on the ceiling went black, the instrument displays either went out directly, or the picture was shaken continuously, and the emergency lights on the walls lit up, making the entire command hall look bloody red.
The vibration continued to ferment, and the entire command hall began to roll. Everyone was unstable and had to firmly grasp everything that could support the body. The "sniff" sound from the woman's screams and equipment damaged circuits were poorly contacted. The command hall was in a doomsday scene.
...
I don’t know how long it took, but the shaking of the ground finally stopped. After a few flashes of lights on the ceiling, it finally returned to normal, and most of the instruments in the equipment pool also resumed operation.
Salmu grabbed the guardrail and struggled to get up. He looked at the messy equipment pool below. He didn't care about wiping the blood that had fallen on his left temple. He asked breathlessly: "Control Team, report the situation."
A serene sound came from below.
In about 10 seconds, a voice suppressing pain replied: "The armor outside area a was damaged, the water circulation equipment was damaged. The oxygen-making equipment was slight failure. The generator units No. 1, No. 3 and No. 9 stopped operating, and the energy supply was reduced by 20%. Fortunately, the emergency treatment procedure has been started, the safety gate fell, and the internal pressure has stabilized. The air-conditioning system is operating normally, and except for the impact point in area a, the environment in other areas is good."
"What's the battle situation? How is it?"
"The contact with kz-78, kz-56 was interrupted. The external camera probe is being switched."
As soon as the staff member finished speaking, a progress bar flashed on the central screen, and then a picture appeared in front of everyone.
In the low-altitude orbit covered with satellite wreckage, more than 180 "Thunder Wings" aerospace fighters are bombing around 12 Viking fighters, gradually dividing and surrounding them.
Various types of missiles are like needles that penetrate the seams, posing a serious threat to the only 12 remaining Viking warfare institutions, forcing them to gradually shrink their fronts and withdraw from war zones that can endanger orbit satellites.
What's going on? Why did all the fighter jets of kf-501 and kf-503 go out? Salmud was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that their commanders were afraid that they had launched a full-scale attack when they saw the satellite was damaged.
"Oh!" Salmud sighed heavily. Generally speaking, as long as the performance of the fighter jets is not much different, the number difference of 3 to 1 will definitely be a one-sided war, not to mention that there are so many missiles of various types. But what happened? It allowed the opponent to break through the blockade line, rush into the satellite belt, and destroy the two reconnaissance satellites, kz-78 and kz-56.
Although the reconnaissance satellite has very thin armor and its combat effectiveness against ships is negligible, it is a space-based facility with the lowest defense capabilities. But no matter what, it is nearly a thousand meters long, and it was actually exploded by three or five enemy planes in one round of missiles!
If it was an enemy of the warship level, it would be fine, but TM was clearly only a few fighter planes. It was just at the door of Rector's Navy's house, and he fucked two reconnaissance satellites under his nose. The slap was so fierce that Salmud felt his cheeks burning.
"Fight... I hit it!"
Just as he was distracted, he suddenly heard a burst of exclamations from below. Salmud looked up and saw that on the big screen, two beams of laser lightning flashed past one enemy plane, and the other was seriously damaged. He swirled outward and then disappeared without a trace.
Under the joint attack of more than 180 "Thunder Wings", countless missiles, and 100mm laser cannons, the only remaining 10 enemy battles were finally defeated, flying towards the atmosphere like a meteor.
182, nearly 8 squadrons of "Thunder Wings" tightly grasped 10 Viking fighter jets. The projectiles fired by the rapid-fire cannons were like pouring rain, interlacing on the left and right sides of the Viking fighter jets.
Salmud felt something was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong. He just simply thought it was inappropriate to do so. "Thunder Wings" is an aerospace fighter, but in most cases, it is performing space operations, so it's not impossible to enter the atmosphere. But the combat effectiveness may be greatly reduced.
Recalling the scene captured by the reconnaissance satellite before, Salmus couldn't help but change his face: "Communication officer, notify the commander of the fighter brigade and ask them to withdraw. This is a trap!"
"Train?" The excited staff downstairs looked stagnant, and the correspondent hurriedly changed the channel. Trying to contact the kf-501 space station.
About half a minute later, the correspondent, who was so anxious that his face was sweating, turned around and his voice was filled with a crying voice: "Col. The laser communication device was damaged in the previous impact. As for the radio network, it was still in a semi-paralyzed state due to the air combat and satellite explosion just now."
Salmu sat back on the sofa after hearing this, "Why is this happening..."
At present, he can only pray that the pilots of "Thunder Wings" will have as good flight skills in the atmosphere as in space. In this way, there may be a chance to win, because there are not many opponents. The total number is less than 50. In conjunction with the air power of the ground army, there is also the power of a battle.
A few minutes later, when the electromagnetic storm in Rector's low-altitude orbit subsided and the command satellite where Salmud was located reconnected with other satellites, 182 "Thunder Wings" swooped down like a meteor shower, venting fire rains at the Viking fighter fleet in front of them.
How powerful is the 40mm rapid-fire gun? Its power is enough to penetrate two meters thick uniform steel plates. Facing the 182 "Thunder Wings" that line up in the sky, they are densely packed with fish eggs and fire at one volley. Viking fighter jets with only 10 numbers are like ants that are as ill as if they are buried in heavy rain.
Finally, a Viking fighter jet was shot at the tail, a flame ignited, and it fell rapidly from a high altitude.
This scene inspired all the drivers of "Thunder Wings". As it turns out, the opponent is not an invincible god of war. As long as there are enough numbers and strong firepower, they can still be killed.
"People, cheer up and kill these rebels for me. Let the land ducks on the ground take a good look at the power of our navy."
"Hahaha, fire, fire, poke their butts..."
“yahoo!”
Amid the excitement of the driver, a Viking fighter jet was scratched by satellite debris in the previous space battle. After entering the atmosphere, it lost balance due to the influence of vortex. It was then hit by a "stinger" missile. The left thruster caught fire and burned, dragging a thick stream of black smoke and fell downwards.
The comprehensive combat effectiveness of these enemy aircraft in the atmosphere is nothing more than that! The drivers of "Thunder Wings" are full of confidence. Their joining may be able to turn the tide, reverse the precarious situation of Rector, and turn the government army into victory.
Merit, medals, bonuses, promotions, these seem to be within reach.
Just as the remaining infantry of the 287th Division looked dull and cheered at the "Thunder Wings" fighter jets that were overwhelming in the sky, Tang Fang was stunned in the command center of the institute, looking at the sky outside the window.
"'Wings of Thunder'..."
As soon as he finished speaking, as his eyes turned cold, two rows of Goliath were suddenly added on the lawn of the buffer zone outside the institute, with a total of 30 Goliath robots.
The clusters of flames were like firecrackers on New Year's Eve, flashing constantly. The slender body of the Hellfire missile, which was nearly 1 meter long, was like a series of long swords, piercing through the sky, facing the group of "Thunder Wings" fighter jets pressed down like a dark tide in the sky, and fired away at a speed of more than Mach 20.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
The "Hellfire" missile shuttled through the air, and the sharp sound almost tore the entire sky apart. The only eight remaining Viking fighters were like fast sails under the rushing waves, breaking through the wind and waves and successfully avoiding the storm.
However, those "Thunder Wings" were not so lucky. The previous experience of Viking fighter jets was repeated in them, with more than 300 "Hellfire" missiles sweeping the cloudless blue sky above the institute.
Although "Hellfire" is just a small missile, its range is 50 miles, and even in the atmosphere, it has a terrifying speed of more than Mach 15 per hour. If in space, "Thunder Wings" can still race with them with good maneuverability and cooperation. However, at this moment, under the friction of the atmosphere and the gravity of Rector, they cannot exert their peak combat power at all, and can only look at the "Hellfire" cluster that is coming like a tide below in surprise and daze.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The continuous explosions shook the sky and a blue sky, and a fire appeared. Looking from the ground, it seemed that the enthusiastic landlords had a grand and grand welcome party for the group of aliens!
The Goliath robot's "Hellfire" missile system can lock in three hundred enemies in one second. With the relay guidance of the eyeworm, "Thunder Wings" is tantamount to meat on the chopping board.
The continuous flashes illuminated the faces of everyone on the ground. The splashing fireballs were more dazzling than the festival fireworks. In just a dozen seconds, 144 "Thunder Wings" were blown into pieces by the "Hellfire" and turned into rolling fireballs, rotating and burning, drawing smoke tracks in the sky thousands of miles away. Then they plunged into the arms of Mother Earth.
The fire is colorful and the fireworks are gorgeous.
Such a scene is so magnificent and beautiful.
On the main streets of Vandenbat, citizens with panic looked blankly at the wreckage of the fighter jets painted with raging fire in the sky, like meteorites.
As early as the sound of cannons from siege tanks resounded through the world, the fighter planes of the Head and Capital Military Region roared past, they realized something. War is coming! Someone waved his fists at the high-ranking government.
In just over 30 minutes, the cannon sound from the north of Wendenbat never stopped. Although the distance was too far, beyond the distance of people, there was a cordon set up by police at the edge of the city, making it difficult to observe near the front line. However, from the repeated violent earthquakes, the laser columns shot from the sky, and the groups of fighter jets passing by in the sky, there was no doubt that this was not a small fight at all. It was a real war.
Now, this scene that happened in the sky confirms their conjecture.
The arrogant imperial navy, the long sword hanging over the heads of the people, the Great Wall that the nobles are proud of...
At this moment, they are burning and exploding, falling from the sky like dumplings.
That is "Wings of Thunder", with a unit price of 20 million myd. In just a few breaths, more than 100 aerospace fighter jets were destroyed like this?
"3 billion, that's 3 billion, it's gone in the blink of an eye!" said a middle-aged man who was engaged in finance tremblingly.
"Wow. What a brilliant firework." This is a seven or eight-year-old girl.
"Who is it? It actually forced the government army to this extent." On the rooftop of a 100-meter-high building in Roland District, an old man in his 70s muttered to himself.
“…”
Roland District was in a commotion, Wood District was in a commotion, and the whole of Vandenbart was like a pot of water close to boiling. The citizens were panicked and rushed out of the city with their families.
As for the officials who are pampered all day long, they have been hardworking. They ride various means of transportation and shuttle through the squares and radio stations in Vendbat, posing a self-righteous expression, telling people not to panic and not to be afraid. It is the government's exercise, Lord Lancelot's big training. There is no need to worry or escape, and the exercise will end soon.
To be a good politician, acting skills are one of the compulsory courses. The higher the official position, the better the acting skills. If you want to become a qualified politician, you must at least learn to not show your emotions. Well, you also have a sweet mouth and a sword in your heart, and a knife hidden in your smile. Of course, a hypocritical face is a must.
Just like now, when the district mayor and the officials of the city hall are calling on the citizens not to panic, not to be afraid, and not to spread rumors, they have already sent their wives, children and close relatives out of Vandenbat.
The battle in the sky continued, eight Viking fighters killed a retaliation, and mt50 Lanzel Flying Thunder followed the Hellfire Missile and launched a second wave of attacks.
The remaining 38 "Thunder Wings" drivers were all dumbfounded. In just a few breaths, the 182 "Thunder Wings" lost 80%, which was simply a disaster and a catastrophe.
I thought the rebels had only these fighter jets against the air, but who would have thought that they had such terrifying air defense firepower, those robots with two legs, they... they were simply aircraft killers!
Fear spread in their hearts, without communication, without hesitation, all the drivers had only one reaction, escape! Escape back to space, escape back to space station. This busy navy will not help... Let the army fight to the death with these ghost enemies.
The flames ejected from the thruster left an arcuate track in the air, and 38 "Thunder Wings" began their escape journey.
The troposphere, stratosphere, intermediate layer...the fighter planes climb higher and higher.
Boom, boom...
Occasionally, an explosion came from behind. Some backward "Thunder Wings" were caught by Viking fighter jets and exploded into rolling fire under the strafing of the 40mm caliber Gatling machine cannon.
From hunter to prey, the transition is so fast that it seems to be a dream.
When the "Thunder Wings" in the front broke through Rector's atmosphere, the driver finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the dark void in the distance. He came back and finally escaped from the sky and saved his life.
He looked back and saw that there was nothing left behind, only wisps of smoke that had not yet dissipated.
There are 148 "Wings of Thunder", 148 drivers, he is the only one who returns alive...
After the rest of his life, he had no joy, no happiness, no sorrow, and his disgust for war.
The driver released the joystick and took off a bad bear chain hanging from the top of the front window. He held it tightly with his hands and leaned against his face. He cried like that, tears burst out from his eyes.
The pilot signal light of the kf-501 space station flashed in the distance, but the fighter planes drifted farther and farther in the vast void.
