Li Boyong was awakened by the sound of the alarm in his sleep. He quickly got up and rushed out of the tent.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
"ZAFT Army's mobile suits are here."
"Where is our MS team?"
"Hurry up!"
The surroundings were noisy, but not too chaotic. Li Boyong quickly ran to the side of his aircraft, stepped on the lift stirrups of the Assault Dagger and entered the cockpit.
While starting up the machine, he used the loudspeaker and the team channel to call his team.
About ten seconds later, the response from three subordinates came through the team channel, "Lieutenant, we are also ready to board the aircraft. The aircraft will be activated soon."
"Very good, the MS team of the 3rd MS Combat Company will attack!" Li Boyong nodded. The three rookies moved quite quickly and were not affected by the panic. It is estimated that the commander's skills played a role.
"This is a night battle, don't be too far away, or you will be defeated one by one."
Li Boyong warned and led the MS team towards the attacked position.
I remember that there seemed to be a disguised early warning position. The ZAFT army probably wanted to attack the MS camp here at night, and the direction was correct. Fortunately, they were discovered by the early warning position.
I looked back at the MS camp behind me and saw that no MS troops had come out yet. It seemed that I could only rely on the four mobile suits here for the time being.
Li Boyong thought for a while, and in this unclear situation, it was better not to rush over to support him. Anyway, as long as the large MS troops behind him reacted, the enemy would naturally have to retreat. As for the brothers in the early warning position, they could only let them Bless yourself.
"The entire team switches to the night vision goggles and goes to the depression in the terrain ahead to prepare to engage the enemy."
The four assault daggers sprinted to the position indicated by Li Boyong and pointed their guns at the early warning position.
Li Boyong was nervously observing the situation over there with his night vision goggles. Speaking of it, this was his first MS combat at night, so he was inevitably a little confused.
After waiting for about twenty seconds, two enemy figures appeared in the field of vision.
Li Boyong carefully looked at the shape on the opposite side and cursed, "Gan, isn't this Baku?"
The two Baku units also obviously detected Li Boyong's MS team, and launched more than a dozen missiles towards Li Boyong for fire coverage, and at the same time accelerated their charge.
"The whole team holds up the shield and shoots together, don't let Baku rush up!"
The four assault daggers set up shields and withstood the rain of missiles that came over them. They used their beam guns to drive back the two charging Baku.
The two Baku beam sabers were stretched out. It could be seen that Li Boyong's MS team was shooting so intensively that they had to put away the beam sabers and turn to retreat.
But resisting a hail of missiles like this was not without losses. The shields and left arms of the two Assault Daggers were scrapped.
"Don't panic. There is still some cover here. I have set up the gun and blocked the point. No matter how powerful the Baku machine is, I don't dare to rush forward."
Seeing that the team seemed to be in some commotion because of the damage to the machine, Li Boyong quickly spoke to comfort them.
The fact was just as Li Boyong had judged. The two Baku units were swaying left and right and firing at Li Boyong's side, but they didn't dare to get close.
The two Baku units were stopped by Li Boyong for a moment, and the follow-up troops of the ZAFT army's night attack also broke through the early warning position and caught up.
"Ma Dan, haven't the troops behind come out yet?"
Seeing Xigu and Santai Jean rushing out from behind Baku, Li Boyong didn't know what to say about his pig teammates behind him.
But it is unrealistic to retreat in this situation. If you retreat, you will be spanked by Baku.
I can only hold on for dear life...
ZAFT's follow-up troops began to suppress Li Boyong's side with fire, trying to cover the two Baku units' advance.
"Hold on, shoot, shoot."
Li Boyong shouted meaningless orders to slightly relieve his psychological pressure.
Fortunately, the place he temporarily chose did have certain terrain advantages, and the four assault daggers managed to withstand the ZAFT army's attack.
One Baku rushed up under the cover of his teammates, but Li Boyong made a prompt decision and charged forward with his sword and shield.
Although he was knocked to the ground by the charging Baku, the beam sword stabbed firmly into Baku's cockpit.
The two sides exchanged fierce fire for another three minutes. After all, Li Boyong's side was at a numerical disadvantage. The two assault daggers that had lost their shields were shot one after another, and the pilots did not respond.
At such a crisis, however, there was finally movement in the MS camp behind, and MS teams filed out of the camp one by one.
Seeing that ZAFT could not gain any advantage, they retreated.
Due to the obstruction of Li Boyong's team, the ZAFT army's night attack failed.
In the early morning inventory of the battlefield, ZAFT lost one Baku, while the United side lost two Assault Daggers and an early warning position.
Any discerning person on the United side can see that without the heroic fight of Li Boyong's team, the losses last night would have been much more.
The brigade headquarters also sent a special message to commend Li Boyong for his wise command. Unfortunately, he could not be happy because he lost two of his subordinates, two student soldiers who usually treated him like an elder brother.
Watching the logistics personnel remove the bodies of the two subordinates from the wreckage of the aircraft, then put them into body bags and transport them to the rear.
Thinking about those words that he had said that he would definitely lead them to survive, Li Boyong felt depressed.
But no matter how bad his mood was, the battle on the Victoria battlefield was still going on, and the 3rd MS Combat Company, which had lost two Assault Daggers, still had to participate in today's battle.
The battle on the 17th was extremely fierce, as if to avenge last night's night attack, or to judge something from the ZAFT army's actions yesterday.
Under the cover of fierce artillery fire, the United Alliance launched a group charge towards the ZAFT Army's defense line. At one point, they rushed to the cliff and started a melee battle with the ZAFT Army's mobile suits. However, they were still pushed back by the ZAFT Army. The predicted shortage of supplies for the ZAFT army did not appear, and it seemed to have been staged by the opponent's commander.
Li Boyong still steadily led his men to rush to the second and third lines of the large army, and did not become enthusiastic because of the loss of two men.
After a whole day of fighting, he just found an opportunity to secretly crash a Zaut, completed the system's mission, got a combat point, and spent the rest of the time making soy sauce.
The battle on the 17th ended, and the ZAFT army made an emergency retreat at night.
On the 18th, they jointly advanced, occupied the cliff, and simultaneously advanced towards the ZAFT army's next line of defense.
On the 19th, the offensive and defensive battle continued, and the 3rd MS Combat Company got a half-day opportunity to repair.
On the 20th, the 5th MS mixed brigade was ambushed while advancing and suffered heavy losses. Li Boyong shot down a Zeon in the battle, but lost one of his men again. At this point, the 3rd MS combat company only had one Assault Gladius and Several combat support vehicles and some logistics personnel.
That night, the 3rd MS Combat Company received a temporary supply of members, all of whom were deployed from the remaining squad without their captain.
On the 21st, the 5th MS Mixed Brigade suffered heavy losses and was pushed back by ZAFT forces. Although it fought tenaciously, it was still defeated and forced to the rear. At the same time, the 5th Mixed MS Brigade lost 70% of its assault daggers and was helpless. Go in again.
In this day's battle, Li Boyong fought bravely and shot down a Jean. At the same time, he killed the assault-type Xigu with his sword, and gained five combat points.
Thanks to Li Boyong's hard fighting, he defeated the enemy's leader, which stopped the decline of the entire army and gave the 5th MS Mixed Brigade a chance to retreat. However, he also lost a large number of men again on this day. The 3rd MS Combat Even in name only.
On the 22nd, the Eurasian Federation forces in the rear took up the positions of the 5th MS Mixed Brigade and continued the offensive. Li Boyong was ordered to take the aircraft to the central battlefield on the northern front.
