When the independent regiment charged, the federal long-range firepower continued to provide support.

With the help of the mecha's perspective, as well as military satellites, high-altitude unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, and ultra-long-range radars, the empire's fire output platforms and combat units can fire on independent groups as long as they appear within the scope of reconnaissance and detection.

, the Federation will be able to determine its precise coordinates immediately and then launch a ruthless fire strike.

The empire's anti-missile weapon system has a low interception success rate because it does not have air superiority. It can only rely on the advantages of bunkers to resist.

From the Empire's point of view, the Federation's firepower quota is far inferior to theirs. As long as it survives for a period of time and destroys the independent regiment, the Federation will suffer heavy losses due to this very reckless battle.

But the federal firepower coming from all directions in the sky seemed to be endless today, and it actually felt like a saturated coverage strike.

Because of this battle, the Western Theater Command has made preparations to eliminate one month's firepower quota, and will not hesitate to eliminate more.

Similarly, the federal long-range fire support for the Western Theater also has a sense of regardless of cost.

The Independent Regiment's attack through this canyon is of great strategic value to the Federation. Not even one Imperial mecha from the Independent Regiment was able to defeat it, and even more than half of it was damaged during the charge. As long as the Independent Regiment can pass through smoothly

This canyon in the middle is an undisputed success.

The key lies in the location of the Empire's jump base, just like the Empire once wanted to obtain the precise coordinates of Federation Bases No. 6 and No. 5 regardless of the cost.

It is said that this is an era where mechas are king, but the final word is a nuclear weapon similar to Xiao Yinwan.

In order to maximize the power of nuclear weapons, the precise coordinates of the attack target are of great significance.

How could the Empire, which had known for a long time that the Federation had nuclear weapons, not have the ability to withstand nuclear strikes at its most important jump base?

Under the bombardment of the Empire and the cover of the Federation's fire, the Independent Regiment formed like a torrent of metal and continued to advance in the canyon.

The second line of defense deployed by the empire was the same as the previous first line of defense. Only some of the troops were attacked by the Independent Regiment. Those who wanted to block the direction of the Independent Regiment had no choice but to confront the Independent Regiment.

I saw the orange-red dust brought up by the independent group.

The pursuit begins.

The mecha corps on the first line of defense that had been penetrated before were in the process of pursuit. Due to the obstruction of the second line of defense, they were originally unable to catch up with the independent regiment. They have already completed the battle with the mecha corps on the second line of defense.

Convergence.

The wind and rain hit again.

"Seventy-five kilometers."

"Prepare for battle."

The independent regiment, which had reached the middle of the canyon, encountered the third temporary defense line organized by the empire while being pursued.

Compared with the previous two lines of defense, the deployment of troops in this line of defense is more comprehensive, although the number of mechas has not increased significantly because the independent regiment's action was too sudden and there was no time to mobilize more.

However, the deployment of troops to cooperate with mecha combat can cause great trouble to the independent regiment.

If it is a defense line composed of pure mechas, with the combat power of an independent group, it can easily penetrate it and then use the advantage of speed to open a certain distance.

But combat units that are not mechas are much more difficult to kill, such as movable fortress-type fire output platforms. Compared with the protective armor used by mechas, the outer protective armor used by this kind of fortress is

With the same thickness, it is weaker by more than one level.

But the problem is that they can be described as fortresses, and their protective armor is too thick.

Talking only about the strength of the alloy without mentioning the thickness is a rogue behavior.

Even if it is ordinary pig iron, if its thickness reaches tens of meters, nuclear bombs cannot penetrate it.

Although the weapons of the Independent Regiment are all made of tungsten steel and have unparalleled armor-breaking capabilities, as the main weapons for mechas, they are generally more than three meters long.

Combined with the powerful power brought by the mecha's core engine, theoretically, the outer armor of these fortresses can be easily broken through.

But breaking it does not mean it can be destroyed. Compared with breaking through the armor of the mecha, which can be directly penetrated into the cockpit with weapons to achieve destruction, how can those weapons that penetrate the fortress be so easy to kill the imperial soldiers inside?

During the attack on the fortress, the mecha's maneuverability was equivalent to disappearing for a short time, and after becoming a target, how could the empire's troops miss the opportunity to defeat it?

Before the independent regiment met the third line of defense head-on, the federal firepower had been sparing no effort.

Ji Xinghe’s special weapon ‘Wash the Ground’ was also used on this battlefield after the judgment of the headquarters and confirmation by Ji Xinghe.

The third line of defense was instantly overwhelmed, and man-made dust storms appeared again.

"Follow me closely."

Ji Xinghe, who returned to the team after breaking through the second line of defense, issued clear instructions, and the distance between the many mechas of the independent group became closer in an instant.

Just like when there is a traffic jam on the Azure Star, the mechas are like cars stuck together, completing another task in a very strange way in the artificial dust storm at a seemingly slow but actually very fast speed.

Killing in a sense.

They did defeat more than ten imperial mechas, but almost all of these ten or so imperial mechas were destroyed by Ji Xinghe. A few of them were destroyed by Qin Tong, Su Chuanyun, Harris, and other mecha warriors from the independent group.

, even the lame, Left Hand, Jiang Yun and the others did not take action in this process.

Once you take action, you really can't keep up.

It's not that they can't keep up, it's that their team members can't keep up with them.

Even so, after passing through the empire's third line of defense, the independent regiment still suffered losses.

The seven formation-breaking mechas failed to keep up with the team and disappeared forever into the man-made dust storm that would soon dissipate.

No one was sad, not even angry.

People like Ji Xinghe who join the army halfway are used to sacrifice. As professional soldiers, how could they behave irrationally because of the sacrifice of their teammates after participating in the war on the alien planet for many years?

This is related to the Su Chuanyun challenge that must be completed to join the Independent Regiment. It is also directly related to the fact that the Independent Regiment has gone through several rounds of blood changes in the past three years, and its extremely high sacrifice rate has become famous in the military.

When they chose to join the Independent Regiment, they were already prepared to sacrifice and to watch their comrades sacrifice with their own eyes.

After the two hundred and ninety-four mechas penetrated the third line of defense, their speed began to increase again.

In this area, the empire's defense lines are laid out in layers. It can even be said that from here to the east-west area 40 kilometers away, they are all the empire's defense lines.

However, the defense lines deployed in advance are all focused. The empire cannot densely deploy its troops in an area that is 40 kilometers long, because this area is very wide, and even hundreds of millions of orangutans cannot be transported through the jump gate to achieve dense deployment.

With the help of the intelligence brought by the federation's air superiority, as well as the information previously given by prisoners such as Dongguo Cilian, as well as the information observed during the march of the independent regiment, etc...

Based on his intuition, Ji Xinghe chose a charge path that no one but him could have predicted in advance.

The positions defended by a large number of imperial troops or heavy weapons were directly avoided by the independent regiment. Combined with the federal firepower suppression, they once again marched a distance of about ten kilometers.

"Sixty-five kilometers."

This is the true hinterland of the empire in the Battle Scar Canyon theater. The density of the defense line has increased again. Even Ji Xinghe cannot lead his troops to avoid it as before.

Because there is no way to avoid it.

"I will remember your names."

Ji Xinghe's voice sounded in the independent group's communication channel.

When giving the order to assemble and start charging, he only said one sentence, which was concise, clean and full of power: combat target, kill through the canyon.

But now, he became verbose.

"I'll take you home."

"I will tell everyone around the world that this is not the most glorious moment of our independent group."

"It's not the most glorious moment of your lives."

"I will use tungsten steel as a monument in the ruins of the imperial palace on the Empire Star, and use the name of the heroic spirit as an inscription."

"Let our glory be remembered forever."

The mecha warriors of the Independent Regiment, who are extremely strong in spirit and will, find it difficult to be moved by some words, especially those words that are somewhat middle-class in style, like the forced love-making lines in an unpopular novel.

But because the person who said these words is Ji Xinghe, he is fighting side by side with them, not a group of people sitting in the sky who regard them as numbers.

So, their frenzy was ignited.

"Everyone is here, ready to fight."

Qin Tong's shout sounded after Ji Xinghe's words.

Su Chuanyun followed closely, as he had always needed to do and wanted to do in the limited group operations of the independent regiment in the past three years.

Shout out.

"In the name of the galaxy!"

"Invincible!"

When people shouted, the battle finally began.

The number and quality of the Imperial mechas on the fourth line of defense have all been significantly improved, and the Federation's long-range fire support did not break up their defensive formations.

If there is no way to avoid it, then fight.

Ji Xinghe is in the lead and no one can stop him.

The mecha warriors of the Independent Regiment also unleashed the most powerful combat power in their lives. The performance of the Mountain-Severing Armor and the Formation-Breaking Armor were brought into full play by them.

Therefore, it is only a matter of time before the empire's fourth line of defense is penetrated, but for the independent regiment, the most lacking thing in today's battle plan is time.

"Report, the Anti-Galactic Corps has retreated from the battlefield of Mountain of the Gods."

The Nantianmen Headquarters received this news, which made everyone nervous. Before this news appeared, although they were worried about the status of the Independent Regiment, they were not worried about Ji Xinghe's safety at all.
