Mecha and Knife

The two space battleships landed on the surface of the alien planet with a bang. The distance between them was only about two kilometers. The hatches of both sides were opened at the first time. The planes that had already started preparing for the forced landing were determined. Armor fighters, manipulating their mechas, rushed out directly.

Seventy-two mechas, two complete federal mecha formations, one of which is quite a few, the damage to the Xinyuehu in the air battle is not serious, so they have to go all out to ensure that the Xinyuehu Not destroyed by Imperial mechs.

The number of spaceships in the Federation is very small, and the number of spaceships that can be converted into space battleships is even smaller. The entire Federation has only two space fleets in the true sense. One is the Longzhou Space Fleet. The four major fleets are formed, taking the meaning of guarding the blue square.

The other is the Five Oceans Space Fleet jointly formed by other continents. It is composed of the Peace Fleet, the Atlas Fleet, the Eritrean Fleet, the Arctic Fleet, and the Antarctic Fleet.

Each fleet has only seven space battleships, a total of sixty-three spaceships, and the total number of spaceships currently owned by the Federation, including these space battleships, is only ninety-seven, all of which cost a lot of resources to build made.

Like the mecha, it can be repaired if it is broken, but if it is destroyed, the wreckage can only be recycled as scrap metal.

"Mech formation defensive formation."

"Armored vehicles dispatched."

"Air defense guns in place."

"The anti-missile system was successfully activated."

"The missile launch vehicle is in place, the target space battleship has been locked, and an attack command is requested."

"Attack immediately."

"The tactical team is in position, requesting an attack command."

"Free fire, target Imperial Spaceship, target Imperial Mecha."

"Attention all long-range combat units, I ask you to immediately cover them with firepower and call me."

The sound of rumbling artillery fire suddenly sounded, and the Xinyuehu, which landed first, took the lead in launching an attack on the Imperial Space Battleship. But the imperial warships also made preparations before landing. 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 Xinyuehu, and launched a counterattack at the same time.

The distance of two kilometers is not close, nor is it far. Among the long-range attack weapons used by both sides, many weapons were designed and manufactured at the beginning, and the estimated attack coverage can exceed this distance. But because the atmospheric environment on the alien star 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 star, but the power produced during the explosion is not It can't be compared with when it was on Azure Star and Empire Star.

The shock wave from an explosion is severely attenuated, and heat energy cannot be successfully conducted without enough air, which is a very important energy transmission medium. The only aspect that can be regarded as an increase in power is the kinetic energy carried by the fragments produced when the bomb exploded due to the lower gravity and extremely low air resistance.

But this kind of kinetic energy can only work at a short distance, because the faster the speed, the greater the resistance.

"Ready to fight."

When the roar of artillery fire began to sound intermittently, the imperial mechs rushed towards the Xinyue Fox in formation.

"Ninety, three complete formations of imperial mechs."

"The numbering is complete, the task assignment is complete, please pay attention to all units."

The seventy-two federal mechas did not choose to defend at the location of Xinyuehu, they began to charge in groups. They were not the only ones involved in the battle, but also those armed armored vehicles, and elite soldiers wearing bulky protective suits. They used individual weapons such as guns, and followed the rear and sides of the federal mecha formation to charge, reaching a suitable distance Immediately afterwards, an attack was launched to support the Federation's mecha formation.

But the Empire has more than just mechs, they also have soldiers wearing protective clothing. In comparison, the protective clothing they wear is lighter than that of federal soldiers, and their average physical fitness is several times that of federal soldiers, so they The ability to act and fight is stronger.

This is not an evenly matched battle, and there is a clear gap in the number of mechs and soldiers on both sides.

And the most desperate thing is that Xinyuehu cannot get support from the nearest Federation No. 5 base. Base location information is even more important.

The nearest blockade and barracks are also fighting, they can't get support from the ground, they can only wait for the federal fleet to have a space battleship that can complete the scheduled mission before supporting them.

But they didn't despair, they started fighting with all their might.

The captain of the Xinyuehu was not on the bridge, but came to the Combat Intelligence Center (CIC) after landing. Looking at the various information displayed on the screen in front of him, he spoke calmly.

"Prepare nuclear warheads, apply for authorization to detonate, and if they rush over, then detonate."

"yes."

Without any hesitation, the relevant personnel immediately began to prepare. The relevant personnel sitting in front of the consoles and screens, and none of them changed because of the captain's words. They continued to participate in this encounter in the way they are best at. war.

Even if they know very well, the consequence of detonating the nuclear warhead is that all of them will die, and the soldiers and mech fighters outside the Xinyue Fox will die.

Are they afraid? Of course they are afraid, but they will not question, complain, or regret, because if the nuclear warhead is detonated at this distance, the Imperial Space Battleship and all the Imperial orangutans and monkeys will all die with them.

The explosion of nuclear weapons does not need oxygen, and it can also explode in the vacuum of the universe. Without the obstruction of the atmosphere, the fireball produced by the explosion will expand to a farther distance at a much faster speed than when it is detonated on the blue star.

In 1962, the Yingzhou people conducted a nuclear test at an altitude of 97.5 kilometers from the surface. The atmosphere there was already very thin, and there was no mushroom cloud. However, the resulting fireball rose to a height of 201 kilometers from the surface in 30 minutes, and finally The altitude is 297 kilometers.

Under the condition of controlling the equivalent, all life within ten kilometers will disappear.

"Report, support has arrived."

"Where did it come from?"

"From Base No. 5, four mechas, the level is..."

"Nonsense, contact me with the person in charge of Base No. 5, and ask him if he's crazy and sent someone to support him?"

"It wasn't them who sent them, but the four mechas that were originally on mission in this area, because we changed their mission."

"..." After a few seconds of silence, the captain said, "Let them go."

"Yes...report, they have appeared in the enemy's field of vision, and the enemy sent out six mechas to meet them."

"Then, good luck to them, and good luck to us."

The captain of the Xinyuehu looked at a picture displayed on the screen, the four federal mechas that were about to be besieged by six imperial mechas, and suddenly regretted his decision: he should not have chosen to land in this area Yes, it's about ten kilometers away, so they won't come so fast?

He ordered to detonate the nuclear bomb without hesitation, but regretted it because Su Chuanyun and others were about to sacrifice. This kind of contrast is not surprising, because Xinyuehu and everyone in Xinyuehu are a whole, they Needless to say, we will live and die together, but we will choose to live and die together.

"Report, another support is coming, a mech."

"Where did it come from?"

"The No. 6 base transfers the convoy's escort mechs."

"Nonsense, all fucking nonsense, let him get out, get out quickly."

"Yes...report, Base No. 5 replied that they could not force the mecha to retreat."

"What do you mean? Could it be the ace mecha fighter? No, it's impossible. The ace mecha fighter can't perform the escort mission. Could it be the kind of super mech fighter close to the ace?"

Thinking of a certain possibility, the captain of the Xinyuehu suddenly hoped that a powerful special-level mecha fighter could play such a great role in such a group mecha battle, even enough to change the outcome.

"No, it's a first-level mech fighter."

"Then why can't he be ordered to evacuate?"

"Base No. 5 replied...because he is Ji Xinghe."

"Ji Xinghe? Who is Ji Xinghe?"

The captain of Xinyuehu didn't know about Ji Xinghe. "The Old Man and the Sea of ​​Stars" was played on Azure Star. Most of the people who knew about Ji Xinghe on other planets were in Base No. 6, and a few were in Base No. 3. , very few of them were by the side of Major Han Li and Major Jackson.

"Found it, he is...he is a first-class mecha fighter with twelve gold stars, he is also a professional technical sergeant mechanic, and he is also a special fighting instructor in the training area of ​​the former No. 6 base."

"Then is he a mechanic, a mecha warrior, or a combat instructor? Why can't he be ordered?"

"Report, seven of our mechas were damaged in battle, and six of the enemy's mechas were destroyed."

In just a few short conversations, serious battle damage had already occurred, and the captain of the Xinyuehu no longer paid attention to the five mechas that came to support him. Since I can't go, since I don't want to go, I can only wish them good luck, I can only wish everyone good luck.

But will luck really come?

Ji Xinghe is here.

He didn't turn on the full power state before, so the speed was not fast, but he was only a few minutes slower than Su Chuanyun and others, because the two spaceships flew over Su Chuanyun's head and landed in the direction where the convoy was before. of.

Because the convoy turned ahead of time, they couldn't see the two spaceships, but when Ji Xinghe turned to run, he could see the direction clearly.

The short-wave communication channel was connected, and Ji Xinghe received an order from the relevant personnel of the Xinyuehu, so he began to charge, aiming at the position where the four of Su Chuanyun and Sijia were located. He was incorporated into this temporary team, But the person who issued this order did not know that Su Chuanyun, Andre, the deaf man, and the lame man were members of the Ji Xinghe team in Shen Mu's plan.

Four vs. six, Su Chuanyun and others are pulling at the limit. Their combat goal is not to destroy these six imperial mechas. As long as they can drag more with less, it is a successful support.

"I can't take it any longer. I'll die first. When you see Lao Ji, remember to say sorry for me, because my life was saved by him, and I lost it again."

Su Chuanyun was about to sacrifice himself again to create opportunities for his teammates. Just as Andre and the others, who were also about to lose their hold, were about to yell, Ji Xinghe's voice rang in their ears.

"Listen to my command, combat target, wipe out."
