At four o'clock in the morning on August 30, 2552, the battle situation on Tianyuan Four, or Reach, finally took a turn for the worse, reaching the final, most difficult and dangerous moment.
At 04:47 a.m. in the standard time zone of Reach, the Fermion outpost located outside Tianyuan Four suddenly detected violent reactions from a large number of transition faults. It was known that the new fleet of the Covenant must be arriving soon. After transmitting the final urgent message to UNSC Fleet Headquarters, the Fermion Outpost had to immediately execute the 'Cole Protocol' and self-destruct before the enemy could capture them in order to prevent any valuable intelligence from falling into the hands of the Covenant!
However, the sacrifices of those brave UNSC naval personnel did not prevent the invasion of the Covenant fleet...
At 05:00 in the morning, the UNSC finally detected that a giant Covenant fleet containing at least 315 warships of various types. The identifiable 'Special Justice' fleet arrived at the edge of the Tianyuan Four Galaxy and entered In the Tianyuan four star systems, the commander of the Covenant fleet is surprisingly the old rival of the UNSC, the elite captain of the Sangheili clan named 'Tirvadami'.
Since the two groups of Covenant fleets that had arrived at Reach had already swept away and greatly weakened the defenses outside the four Tianyuan systems, the newly arrived 'Special Justice' fleet basically drove in without encountering any decent resistance. , began to advance towards the star of Reach, which is crucial to the battle.
Receiving the news from the outpost and detecting this situation made the UNSC fleet, which had been very anxious in the early battle of Reach and almost completely lost Reach, become even more panicked and even worse. …
Ten minutes later, at 05:17 in the morning, Admiral Roland Fremont ordered all UNSC warships in the systems such as Jericho and Tantalus to give up guarding other places and return to Reach to participate in common defense! At the same time, all ships were ordered to immediately implement the 'Cole Agreement' and arrive at the Zulu assembly point above Reach at full speed to stand by.
Although the UNSC responded quickly, the Covenant's attack was even faster!
At 05:34 in the morning, the Covenant spacecraft made frequent and precise jumps in the galaxy, specifically looking for lone human warships and annihilating them! In just over ten minutes, more than a dozen lone UNSC ships were destroyed. Before the decisive battle between the fleets began, the UNSC fleet suffered what can be said to be extremely heavy losses! After all, the UNSC has very few ships, and humans simply cannot afford to lose them.
Of course, not all ships will be hunted by Covenant warships. For example: During this period, a DDS-class aircraft carrier discovered the Pillar of Autumn. However, unfortunately, it suffered a big failure. The Pillar of Autumn was easily destroyed by the legendary Captain Keith, who had been 'magically modified' by ONI at a huge cost of money and technology, and foolishly staged a drama of 'sending one's head from a thousand miles away'.
However, one or two victories without any symbolic significance obviously cannot change the decline of the UNSC fleet!
At 05:45 in the morning, almost an hour had passed since the discovery of the Covenant fleet. After the UNSC fleet defended nearly a hundred warships over Reach, the Covenant's 'Special Justice' fleet finally began to attack. Reach's orbital defense network, and launched a decisive battle with the UNSC fleet that was relying on the orbital defense platform for defense!
Surprisingly, the result of the first confrontation between the two sides seemed to be somewhat evenly matched?
Although the UNSC warships are relatively backward, due to the powerful orbital defense platform assisting bombardment and the three 'cradle' repair platforms acting as human shields to resist the attacks of Covenant warships, the number of battle losses between the Covenant and UNSC is basically the same. ?
So, of course, the results of the first wave of attacks were quickly revealed... After the Covenant fleet lost a full third of its ships, that is, more than a hundred spaceships, it hurriedly Withdrew, it no longer had the ferocious energy it had at the beginning.
Of course, the UNSC fleet is not much better!
However, fortunately, due to the home field advantage of the UNSC, as the battleships continued to return and the orbital defense platform began to operate at full power, it was able to fight with less than a hundred battleships left. There are more than two to three hundred Covenant fleets that dare not approach those orbital platform defense circles of Reach?
As a result, the Covenant fleet, which had suffered a great deal, destroyed part of the UNSC fleet and five orbital defense platforms as if venting its anger, and then immediately changed its offensive measures. It no longer dared to confront the enemy directly, and instead continued to attack the planet Reach. Deploy a large number of landing troops, intending to first attack the power stations on Reach that provide wireless transmission and power support for the orbital defense platform, and then repeat their old tricks again, starting to use wolf guerrilla tactics to attack the UNSC fleet defense line. Accurate short-distance jumps again and again, using sneak attacks and harassment attacks with almost no return, specifically looking for opportunities to attack the orbital defense platform, hoping to remove those difficult-to-treat enemies at a price they can accept. fixed firepower point?
It was also at this time that an unknown Covenant mysterious battleship began to appear frequently, making precise short-distance jumps beyond the range of all UNSC spacecraft and space stations, and using long-range attacks to destroy several UNSC main battleships and creations one after another. The opportunity allows the Covenant fleet to attack the orbital defense platform, making the UNSC's already fragile defense line even more precarious...
At 05:54, due to the appearance of the Covenant's 'Special Justice' fleet, ONI finally gave up on the previously taken-for-granted 'Operation Red Flag' and no longer dared to hold back Reach and went against the already dominant force. The Covenant fleet is entangled, but is preparing to put the 'Pillar of Autumn' and the twenty-five second-phase Spartans on it into the battle to defend Reach.
Now, the 'Pillar of Autumn', which had performed well in previous anti-hunting operations, naturally took on the first task after the cancellation of Operation Red Flag, which was to break away from the precarious defense line of the UNSC and create the illusion that the warship was alone. And attract the enemy's mysterious super cruiser to your door, and then destroy it!
"Look! Look!"
o(*｀ー??)o
'As people have said a long time ago, that kind of plan is absolutely impossible to succeed. If those guys who were dumber than their little bears could fully assist the fleet in destroying the two groups of Covenant bad guys who invaded in the early stage. As for the fleet, the losses on Reach will be less now. It will be even easier to deal with the 'Special Justice' fleet with 315 battleships. How can it be like now, when the enemy is about to kill them all? After annihilation, do you want to hold on to defend with all your strength? '
(??????????)
"In this case, as long as those Crooked Stars from the Covenant Alliance are not idiots even stupider than they are, there is no way they can win. They'd better retreat quickly, leave Reach behind, and then run back to Earth to defend! "
o(??^｀)oHmph!
In the preparation and standby area of the Spartans, a little girl who is also wearing Mjolnir armor, but looks like some details are different from what the Spartan IIs are wearing, is talking nonsense. He continued to slander and abuse the high-level commanders of ONI without any courtesy at all.
(…)
(●￣(??)￣●)
(Tibbers doesn’t want to say anything anymore, because originally a bad little master had to participate in the war between humans and the Covenant just to vent his anger and fight back, but now, unknowingly, She has completely stood on the side of humans in this world, and she seems to want to help to the end?)
'Annie...'
'We at the UNSC will never give up Reach easily. It is the gateway to the earth and a strong fortress for near-earth colonies. It has very important strategic significance! '
'Even if there is still a glimmer of hope, we must make unremitting efforts to protect it. Once we give up on it, I am afraid that the day will come when mankind will be completely destroyed by the Covenant...'
'So, you'd better sit back and relax. Our current task is to attract and destroy the enemy's super battleship and provide the best possible protection for the fleet on the periphery of the defense line. As for the rest, after the battle to guard Reach is over, if If we are all alive, then let's discuss it. '
Master Chief John-117 smiled bitterly and sighed. He looked at the little girl who was sitting next to him and others, but she was not forgiving and never stopped complaining for a moment and gave him careful advice.
If you think about it carefully, ONI's previous 'red flag operation' is indeed suspected of being somewhat thankless, but what can be done? Now that things have reached this point, as soldiers, there is no other better way than working hard to perform their tasks.
This is just like what Captain Keyes and Dr. Halsey said three days ago when they introduced the operation. No matter whether it is successful or not, the situation of mankind will never get worse. There is no way, and we always have to try. Ichiban.
"But is it still necessary to hold on now?"
(??????.??????)????????
"If they hadn't held back before, maybe the Covenant would have just started to drop landing modules and Kais ground attacks on Reach, right? In that case, so many cities wouldn't have been destroyed, and there wouldn't have been so many deaths. With more people, it will be easier to defend now!!"
(σ｀??д??)σ
Every time she thinks about this, Annie gets very angry!
She and the Noble team worked hard to fight those ugly Covenant crooked people, winning battles one after another, destroying ships one after another, but in the end, it was because of Some idiots from ONI were holding back and working in vain. How could she easily forgive those guys for that kind of thing?
If it hadn't been for that "Red Flag Operation" by Rao Shizi, the current showdown between the UNSC and the Star Alliance would have been a 50-50 draw at best. But now, it was dragged into a win-lose situation by those idiots. She alone could not win. After helping them so much, it was all in vain!
'...'
'Annie, aren't you going to prepare and prepare to attack later? '
After a moment of silence, he didn't know what to say. He also understood that what the other party said was probably the truth. After thinking about it, he simply changed the topic and asked a little girl who was still very angry. .
The mission above has been completed. Because the opponent is very powerful in air combat, this time he will fly the 'Saber' fighter plane to attack, and then cooperate with the 'Pillar of Autumn' to launch an attack on the mysterious super battleship of the Covenant that may appear. In the anti-hunting operation, strive to hit the target with one hit and completely destroy the Covenant ship that relied on its ultra-long attack range and precise jumping ability to cause huge damage to the UNSC ground defense line!
"There's no rush yet!"
(??_??)
"The guys in the maintenance team just said that they are now loading missiles with the 'Havok' warhead on our 'Saber' fighter planes, and the enemy warships have not appeared yet, so we don't have to wait in that messy place! "
????(?????????????)???????
Of course, Anne would definitely not admit that it was those in the training class who didn't want her to cause trouble and be a disservice?
But to be honest, after three days on the "Pillar of Autumn", she was already a little impatient. She felt that it was better to go to Reach and fight with the Noble team. Maybe it would be more comfortable to beat those crooked star villains hard?
However, although she had already made up her mind, there was no rush yet. She still planned to kill the mysterious Covenant super battleship first.
'! ! '
'A clean thermonuclear weapon like Havok's from the Mithwaia arsenal? Annie, you need to be careful later. The power of that nuclear fusion destruction device is quite large, so don't be accidentally blown up by it! '
Obviously, Sergeant Major John recognized that 'Havok' device and knew how terrifying a missile equipped with that kind of warhead was! Therefore, knowing that the little girl in front of him actually needed to fly a fighter plane equipped with that kind of super weapon to cooperate with the 'Pillar of Autumn' in carrying out combat missions, he couldn't help but give the other party a little sweat.
But thinking about it, there is nothing we can do. After all, there is really no second pilot on board the 'Pillar of Autumn Wind' who is more suitable to perform that mission!
Not to mention anything else in advance, John-117, the sergeant major, was willing to be defeated simply by the opponent's talent in piloting fighter planes! Because in the Spartan recreation room, he had used the simulated cockpit to have a friendly match with the other party. Of course, it was the kind of simulated cockpit that piloted the 'Broadsword' fighter plane. After all, the 'Saber' was a classified military service. , they haven’t really come into contact with it yet.
but……
The result of the simulated confrontation is not very good!
Anyway, including himself, the Spartan II warriors, those veteran drivers who thought that their driving skills were not inferior to those of ordinary aces, all walked into the cockpit with great interest, and then became as gray as eggplants beaten by frost. Sliding down in disgrace... Since then, no one has dared to play the kind of game she described as 'Sky King' that only children can play with the little guy in front of her.
'This isn't right! '
'Even a missile with a Havok warhead is relatively safe in space, right? '
'John, although that weapon is indeed very powerful, the strong light and rays radiated by it should not be affected by the saber fighter with a shield! As long as you stay far away, I think it should be fine. '
At this time, Linda-058 on the side suddenly turned her head and intervened and added this sentence.
Because what she said is indeed true. Although the nuclear weapons are unparalleled in the atmosphere and have terrible shock waves... but in the universe, at most they are just a flash of light, as long as they are not too close. Recently, as long as it is not 'burned' by those high-energy bright lights, there is definitely no big problem.
'No! Linda, I think John is right, it’s better to be careful! '
'Annie, we will drive a few Broadswords to escort you for the first distance later. We won't be able to take care of you after you break into the attack range. You have to be careful. '
James-005 also gave the other party a careful reminder.
Later, they, the sergeant major, and Linda will indeed escort the other party. However, at most they will only interfere with and attack the enemy's fighter planes that may appear outside the close-in defense guns of the enemy ships. They certainly do not dare to use a certain technology. A little girl who was superb and unimaginable in talent carried nuclear bombs to cooperate with the "Pillar of Autumn" in attacking the ship.
"Aww... people know, you are so annoying!!"
??(????0`??)??
After yawning, Anne answered somewhat casually, because she was thinking about something else.
The UNSC's battle on Reach has been going on so far, and even her "unqualified commander", who has average combat command skills and often sacrifices all her men in simulated command, knows that the Covenant will definitely win. It’s settled! The UNSC fleet on their side is just continuing to linger and trying to delay the failure, which does not make much sense.
'correct! '
'Annie, is George okay? I heard that he was serving in the Noble team with you, and his code name was Noble 5? '
Linda suddenly asked about a large Spartan II machine gunner with service number 052, and she, who had the service number 058, naturally recognized him.
In fact, the same goes for Master Chief John and James. After all, there were only so many Spartans in the second phase back then, and they had trained and grown up together since childhood, so it was not too strange for them to know each other.
"Should it be okay?"
(??????.??????)????????
"Anyway, we saved him last time, so he probably won't die for the time being!"
(???????????)
Speaking of it, Annie still missed the big guy who raced with her, attacked the Covenant together, blew up spaceships together, and then chased those Covenant fighter planes and transport spaceships together in New Alexandria City, because the other party was ruthless. He doesn't talk much, and he's very accurate when shooting a machine gun. He's a rare partner, at least during a war. He's much more useful than her stupid little bear!
(…)
(●￣(??)￣●)
(Tibbers said it wasn't angry at all, really...)
'alarm! '
'alarm! ! '
'Transition fault reaction detected, quantity one, distance 638! '
'The target ship is ready to appear! Notice! All combatants are requested to immediately prepare for level one combat! Pilots, please come to the hangar and be on standby immediately! '
'beep! beep! '
'Lieutenant Anne! Your Saber fighter has been prepared and all hydrogen bombs have been mounted. Please go to the hangar immediately and stand by! '
'Repeat: Please go to the hangar immediately to board and standby! ! '
At the same time that warning sounded in the Spartan ready room, Annie's helmet also sounded the order urging her to go to the hangar and board the plane immediately.
'finally come……'
'Let's go! '
'Before the new mission comes, we can teach those Covenant guys a lesson first! ! '
Sergeant Major John-117 stood up first and signaled a little guy who was still in a daze to move quickly.
Along with them, there are several Spartan warriors and many carrier-based pilots. They will attack together to escort the battleship and ensure that a certain little girl's fighter plane does not receive too much damage within the first flight distance. interference.
…
At this time, when the fighter planes boarded by the Spartans and pilots attacked immediately, on the bridge of the Pillar of Autumn, the legendary Captain Case of the UNSC, who created the famous The captain who used the 'Keyes Spin Tactics' and used it to kill one Covenant destroyer and two cruisers with one against four and win the victory. The culprit who led to the discovery of Reach by the Covenant was just sitting on his back. On the captain's throne, he squinted his eyes and pondered as he looked at the mysterious Covenant super cruiser that appeared on the radar and optical images in the distance.
Captain Keyes knew from limited intelligence that the Covenant super cruiser was said to be a terrifying existence that almost no UNSC warship could compete with?
And it is said that it has a super strong and fast-recovering solid shield, super fast cruising speed, super thick armor, and super long range. Even the Super MAC on their UNSC orbital defense platform cannot easily hit it due to the distance. , very scary?
But no matter what, it is their mission to deal with that enemy ship, and now that they have encountered it, they cannot escape, and they cannot escape, because so far, no spacecraft targeted by it has been able to escape successfully. , all those UNSC warships were turned into floating garbage in the universe. He must not let the other side continue to wander around Reach and continue to hunt their friendly ships!
'Well……'
'Analyze its situation immediately! Then report its specific data to me! ! '
'be quick! '
Seeing that the other party had indeed taken the bait and targeted his "Pillar of Autumn" and slowly jumped out of the jump break, Captain Case immediately shouted orders to the officers of the radar team in the bridge.
'Yes! '
'...'
'alright! '
'Report Captain! '
'The analysis has been completed: after radar scanning and optical detection comparison, the length of the enemy ship is about 3,576 meters. Its weapon system seems to be very limited. No hangar or pulse laser turret has been found. Currently, only Found what looks like an energy transmitter? '
'! ! '
'warn! '
'Radiation burst detected, enemy ships are about to attack! '
'warn! '
'The enemy ships are now attacking! ! '
When the radar operator reported loudly and transmitted the data to the captain, the battleship's AI sounded a solemn alarm almost at the same time.
Rumble, rumble...
Soon, the entire Pillar of Autumn battleship began to shake violently.
Fortunately, the shock of being shaken and exploded by an enemy attack came and went quickly. The Pillar of Autumn returned to normal soon after, apparently having already withstood an enemy attack. .
What's even more fortunate is that after withstanding a surprise attack from the enemy, their battleship 'Pillar of Autumn' didn't seem to have any major problems?
'Report! '
'The third and sixth areas of the upper deck were severely damaged. The armor plates in this area have been completely damaged, accounting for about 20 percent of the area! ! '
Damage control reported the loss of the Pillar of Autumn directly, but fortunately, since the Kingfisher-class battleships are characterized by a series of internal crisscrossing bracing and honeycomb structures, this allows the ship to withstand a staggering number of hits, and for that The stranded 'Operation Red Flag' has also undergone special modifications, so apart from being scratched twice on the hull by the enemy's ultra-long-range and accurate laser-like weapons, there is no serious problem. At least it can still Unlike other UNSC ships, they were not directly destroyed by a surprise attack.
'Report Captain! '
'The enemy did not rush towards us, but continued to maintain the current distance, which currently remains at around 600! '
'alarm! '
'The enemy ship's energy transmitter is charging! ! '
'Well! '
'I see! '
Captain Keyes put out his hand to stop the crew's panic.
Because now they have been attacked once, and since they have not been sunk, there is no need to panic at all, and there is no point in panic!
'A super long-distance attack, about 50 points of caliber beam energy, the speed is close to the beam, and it can't be avoided? '
'snort! '
'So that's it, I seem to understand! '
Looking at the data compiled into his hands and the damage control report, Captain Case quickly reacted.
He knew that the enemy's mysterious spaceship was actually not very powerful at all. The opponent just relied on its ultra-long range and an energy transmitter to launch laser beams that could not be avoided for sneak attacks. Now his 'Pillar of Autumn Wind' The attack on the ' has proved that the investigation results of the previously destroyed UNSC ships are correct. The enemy is a hateful sniper ship like a sniper!
If it were a normal battle, ordinary UNSC ships would not be able to deal with such a long-range and sneak attack when the opponent's speed is not as fast as the opponent's and the missiles are difficult to hit the enemy. An enemy who is both accurate and fast really doesn't have much to do. Apart from being sunk in frustration, there really is no way to counterattack...
But now, Captain Case has many ways to deal with the opponent, especially when they have made arrangements in advance.
'Where are our fighters now? '
After thinking about it, Captain Keyes ignored the reaction detection alarm of the enemy's energy transmitter charging, but turned around and started asking some questions that he was more concerned about.
'Report! '
'Because there are no enemy planes, all Broadsword fighters have returned and the Saber fighters have arrived in area A! '
A liaison officer quickly called up the area map of the enemy and ours, and marked the positions of the enemy and our ships as well as a small red dot of a certain fighter plane on it.
'very good! '
'Aim, launch the MAC main gun attack on the enemy ship, and knock down its shield as soon as possible! ! '
Squinting his eyes, he felt that catching up with the opponent with the speed of his own battleship would pay a heavy price. Captain Case, who felt that the gains outweighed the gains of that strategy, thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and gave the order directly.
'! ! '
'But Captain, even if our MAC main gun knocks off the enemy's shield at this distance, the enemy will recover quickly! Our missiles are no longer within range! '
Under normal circumstances, when UNSC ships fight against Covenant warships, they first use MAC attacks to blow away the enemy's shields, and then take the opportunity to use various anti-ship missiles, or those shooter missiles and Shiva God-level nuclear bombs were thrown over one after another, and then victory was almost declared.
However, now at such a distance, even if they blasted away the enemy's shield with a few shots, but during the cooling time of their MAC main gun, when the distance is too far to launch a missile attack, the enemy will There is enough time to recharge and restore the shield, and then continue to bombard their 'Pill of Autumn'!
Therefore, the artillery officer did not think that such an attack would have any effect now.
'I know! '
'Order: Attack immediately! ! '
Captain Keyes ordered without any doubt.
Because he knew that when they successfully blasted away the enemy's shield, the Saber fighter piloted by the little girl had almost reached the optimal effective attack distance, which was the best they could withstand the minimum battle damage. Tactics! Moreover, he believed that with that little girl's ability, she must have seized the opportunity well, otherwise the other party would not have been able to do all those major things and make so many military exploits! He chooses to trust the other party, even if he can't contact him at this time, even if the other party has been scorning their 'red flag operation' and making nonsense?
'ah? '
'yes! Yes! '
boom! ! !
Soon, as the battleship fired waves, even the bridge could feel the vibration and huge roar. An iron-tungsten alloy projectile was directed towards the enemy's ship at the speed of light, one-tenth of the bullet speed. It blasted away suddenly, and soon succeeded in creating a corrugated impact point on the shield of the enemy's mysterious sniper warship, and drastically reduced the strength of the opponent's shield.
At this time, a little girl was flying forward quickly and stealthily on a Saber fighter plane equipped with a Havok warhead missile, and looked boredly at the 'Punk of Autumn Wind' that was constantly bombarding each other in her radar interface. ' and the enemy's super battleship.
"..."
(????ˇ??ˇ????)
Annie frowned.
Because, the current situation seems to be a little different from what was planned before. The 'Pillar of Autumn Wind' actually exchanged bombardments with the enemy so quickly, and also looked reckless to the end?
"Um……"
(ー`??ー)
If it were normal, Anne would definitely connect to the communication and ask the captain what was going on. However, thinking that her mission was to sneak close, the engine was running at the lowest power, and all active equipment could not After opening it, she could only frown and start thinking.
"Really, it's so boring. There aren't even any enemy planes, and the broken ship only has one cannon. But what's the point of winning like this? Reach is gone, and we're not going to lose in the end?!"
??(??????~????)╭??Beep!
Although he said that, he saw that the Pillar of Autumn, which was engaged in long-distance bombardment with the enemy's warship, had gradually fallen into disadvantage. He saw that the back of the Kingfisher-class warship had several terrible molten holes cut open. After the wound, Annie felt that she could not wait for them to blow off the enemy's shield, and did not know what the captain was thinking, so she directly pressed a button on her fighter plane, and then placed the missile rack under the belly of the plane. Then two nuclear bombs flew out one after the other.
She didn't know what the annoying Captain Keyes was thinking, but she only needed to know whether she could blow up the enemy ship with a nuclear bomb. As for the rest, she didn't care.
"alright!"
(*^▽^*)
"It's done! Tibbers, let's fly to Reach now!"
??????(??)?????????
After firing two nuclear bombs, Annie turned the nose of the plane without looking at the results, and then pulled the control stick, causing the two main engines and wing thrusters to suddenly erupt into a long bright red tail flame, heading straight towards the aircraft. Flying in the direction of Star Reach at high speed.
(Dear little master, why don’t you wait any longer and confirm the results?!
(；??????)?????????
——Tibbers expressed some confusion about the actions of a certain bad little master of his own, because he had already calculated it, and it seemed that the two nuclear bombs launched would not necessarily blow up the enemy ship? )
"No need! Because the fate of that Covenant warship has been determined!"
??(ψ｀▽′)o
Annie was still controlling the Saber fighter plane to fly back at high speed. Firstly, it was because she wanted to return to Reach as quickly as possible. Secondly, if she didn't run faster, the strong light and energy radiation of the nuclear explosion might affect her if she got too close. fighter, she must be careful.
Otherwise, she might have no choice but to 'fall' directly from space to the surface of Reach like some unlucky Uncle No. 6! And since the speed and orbit were not right, and she was still a little far away from Reach, even if she really wanted to follow her example and fall to the planet, she would probably have to fly around Reach for at least ten or eight years. It’s only possible if you have 10,000 children and 8,000 circles!
(Reporting to my little master, I am very sure that your two nuclear bombs will never destroy that Covenant warship!)
??????????
"Would you like to bet?"
(????ω????)
(No! I'm just talking, please don't mind! But I'm still a little curious, why don't you tell me first?)
(???????????)
(As soon as he heard that the other party was going to bet with him, Tibbs was excited and hurriedly expressed his determination not to do something that would definitely be detrimental to him. Anyway, Tibbs was not familiar with the people of the UNSC, and the Covenant ship What does it have to do with whether the battleship will blow up?)
"Don't tell me! It'll be over in a few seconds anyway, you'd better see for yourself!"
(*??︶??*)
Annie ignored her little bear, and just controlled the Saber fighter plane in the dark universe. The star Reach in the distance seemed very close, but it might take a long time to fly at high speed.
Not long after
A bright light suddenly lit up outside the shield of the Covenant warship, and then the shield of the Covenant warship was instantly overloaded and went offline. The strong light instantly completely submerged Annie and her Saber fighter... However, fortunately this is the universe, and Annie and her fighter plane are already far away from the explosion point, so there is no big image due to strong light or anything like that.
Not long after that, another missile arrived, and was quickly detonated by an automatic fuse at close range. Another wave of strong light came on, making Annie squint her eyes involuntarily, and she almost couldn't see Reach!
The bright light gradually dissipated, and the nuclear explosion in the universe soon ended...
And the Covenant super battleship is still staying there peacefully. The second nuclear bomb just now obviously did not come into contact with the enemy's hull surface, so it just caused a lot of explosions all over the Covenant warship. The fire only caused the enemy ship to be affected and damaged by the close-range nuclear explosion. It didn't seem to be much damage?
(Report to the little master, you made a mistake. The enemy ship was only damaged but not destroyed. It still has the ability to sail and counterattack!)
??????????
However, just as Tibbers finished speaking, a MAC attack from the Pillar of Autumn, the terrifying sub-beam iron-tungsten live ammunition suddenly plunged directly from the bow of the enemy ship, and then instantly penetrated from the stern, and It quickly disappeared into the dark universe, and I don’t know where it flew to...
(…)
(●￣(??)￣●)
(Well, looking at the unfortunate Covenant ship in the distance that began to explode from the bow to the stern, Tibbs suddenly stopped talking. Apparently his bad little master had figured this out , that’s why you retreated directly after dropping two nuclear bombs without even looking at it?)
'Zizzi...'
'Call the Sabers! '
'Well done, the enemy ship has been successfully destroyed. You can return now. We will guide the route and send orbit data to you. Please pay attention to the meeting time! '
'Sent! '
'...'
'? ? '
'saber! Your course has seriously deviated from the course, please return to the Pillar of Autumn immediately! '
'repeat! '
'You have deviated from the route, please return to the Pillar of Autumn immediately! '
'? ? ? '
'The Pillar of Autumn calls for the Saber! '
'Second Lieutenant Anne, what's wrong with you? Can you please answer me? ! '
It was discovered that a certain advanced Saber fighter jet ran towards the Reach star regardless of losing two nuclear bombs. Even though it had run out of the range affected by the strong light of the nuclear explosion, even though it had survived two nuclear explosions, it was completely After showing no intention of stopping or returning, a certain liaison officer on the Pillar of Autumn couldn't help but become anxious and kept calling.
"I don't want to! I'm going back to Star Zhiyuan to fight the crooked people now. You are busy with your own business and don't worry about me!"
??(ψ｀▽′)o
Finally, the somewhat impatient little Annie spoke, and as soon as she spoke, a certain liaison officer who thought something had happened to her was startled!
'Back to Reach? '
'! ! '
'etc! Are you going to disobey military orders? ! '
The communications officer suddenly screamed and felt a little weird.
Because what a little girl kept saying about going back to the Star to fight the crooked Stars couldn't fool him, because he acted without permission on the battlefield regardless of orders, and even went elsewhere without hesitation after receiving a clear order to return. If you fly away, you are disobeying military orders, and you will be subject to a military court or be shot!
Of course, the liaison officer also vaguely knew that with the other party's age and record, he would not be punished too much in this employment situation. However, no matter what the other party's disregard for military orders and wanton behavior, Your behavior will definitely bring you no good fruits! Because this is the UNSC army, not anywhere else!
"Whatever you say, anyway, they are going to Reach now, and you can't catch up..."
(????????-)??
If they fly ahead for a while, they may enter Reach's atmosphere in about ten minutes, so Anne is not afraid of the slow and injured warship "Pillar of Autumn" catching up with her!
'! ! '
'Are you crazy? The Saber is a space fighter. It doesn't have much attack and combat capabilities in the atmosphere! Repeat, Lieutenant Anne, please return quickly! '
'Lieutenant Anne?' ! '
'I found that your fighter plane doesn't have much fuel. If you rush into the atmosphere like this, it will definitely crash! '
'? ? '
'Lieutenant Anne! Please return immediately. This is the latest order from Captain Keyes! ! '
'Lieutenant Anne?' '
Beep~! !
'...'
"snort!"
(??╭╮??)
"That's so verbose!!"
????(????｀??)??????
Feeling a little bored, Annie simply turned off the communication and let the calls from the Pillar of Autumn completely sink in.
Then, after setting the flight trajectory and the method of cutting into the atmosphere of Reach, she lay comfortably on the cockpit and began to think about the two weapons still mounted on the Saber fighter that had not yet been used. Missile thing.
Maybe……
Could she find a place with more Covenants on the road and just throw them away?
Anyway, Reach has been burned out into huge pieces of glass by the bad guys from the Covenant. Presumably, if she drops one or two clean nuclear missiles on the planet, there won't be any big problems, right? This is just like what the liaison officer just said. The fuel of her fighter plane may only be barely enough to fly back to Reach. Anyway, it will crash sooner or later. Before crashing, squeeze out the last value of it and After playing, it must be extremely correct!
"Tibbers..."
??????(??)?????????
"You talk about, where should the remaining two fireworks go?!"
??乛??乛??

(●￣(??)￣●)
"Hey! Let's talk about it?"
ヾ(????ω??｀)??
(On the other side of the planet, there is a group of Star Alliance fleets, about 200 or so, or do you throw that?)
??●ˇ??ˇ●??
"!!"
!? (??''????)??
"How is it possible! People dare to fly over, and they will definitely be broken into pieces !!!"
??(??﹏??,)??
(Then you can blow two pits on the planet casually ...)
(???????????)
"Oh ... okay!"
(??ω??)
Soon, the military knife sailed forward regardless of the way, so that the "Qiufeng Pier" was useless to call and warn in other channels. Annie still disappointed. Be careful along a certain track.
