At 9 p.m. Oceania time, a formation of 24 heavy-duty space transport aircraft, escorted by 48 space vehicles, took off from a space airport in the hinterland of the Victoria Desert and disappeared into the dark night in the blink of an eye.
These 24 heavy-duty space transport aircraft belong to the 6th Space Transport Squadron of the Crisis Planning Agency. The squadron leader is Colonel Zhou Yun. Since its establishment, the squadron has been responsible for space transport tasks between the Earth and the former Mars Nass Military Port.
Since the fall of Nass Military Port, the squadron was on the verge of disbandment, and squadron leader Zhou Yun also began to try training in piloting space vehicles and small interstellar ships.
24 heavy-duty space transport aircraft carry 1,000 heavily-equipped flying combat mechas, including Li Sujia. They will enter the earth's synchronous orbit from the airspace under human jurisdiction, then dive into the sky over Antarctica, and finally land on the ice sheet of Antarctica to carry out the mission. A secret combat mission assigned by the Crisis Planning Agency.
The reason for doing this is really helpless.
It was simply to avoid giving any excuse for an armed invasion of the "airspace" of the Tiberians, to avoid strategic misjudgments between the two sides, and to avoid unnecessary conflicts and disputes.
Just as Li Jianfeng predicted, as soon as the space transport aircraft and escorting space vehicles took off, their electromagnetic signals appeared on the Tiberians' monitoring screens.
Since their flight path was still within the area governed by the Earthlings and had not yet entered the airspace controlled by the Tiberians, they did not issue a warning to the Crisis Plan.
But they still took corresponding measures. In the high-altitude orbit of the earth, they urgently deployed a warning team composed of 50 small interstellar spacecraft to deal with possible emergencies.
At the same time, 96 space vehicles took off from a space airport in the hinterland of the Gibson Desert. They were composed of two tactical squadrons, namely the "Tracker" Squadron and the "Executor" Squadron. The commander was Lieutenant Colonel Cheng Jiahang.
In the command hall of the Supreme Military Executive Committee of the Crisis Planning Agency, Li Jianfeng stared intently at the large monitor screen, following 96 space vehicles composed of two tactical squadrons about 50 kilometers away behind the 24 heavy space transport aircraft.
After a moment of contemplation, he picked up the encrypted communication device: "The Tracker and Executor Squadron, after entering geosynchronous orbit, immediately carry out an attack mission on 24 heavy space transport aircraft!"
"Trackers and executors understand!" Lieutenant Colonel Cheng Jiahang's sonorous and powerful voice came from the other end of the communication device.
30 seconds later, the "Tracer" and "Executor" squadrons outflanked 24 heavy space transport aircraft from the left and right wings. Facing the two menacing attack squadrons, the 48 escorting space aircraft immediately turned on their fire control radars and A stern warning of war was issued.
As everyone knows, the "Tracer" and "Executor" squadrons have already closed the communication channel on any band, and the battle seems inevitable.
At this moment, Li Jianfeng was paying close attention to the two squadrons flying towards the planned attack site. Together with 24 heavy space transport aircraft and the escorting 48 space vehicles, they were about to break out of the atmosphere and enter the earth's synchronous orbit.
His eyes were filled with a hint of sadness.
He held the communication device tightly, as if waiting for something.
Five seconds later, 6 ejection seats were ejected from 24 heavy space transport aircraft. At the same time, 12 ejection seats were ejected from the 48 escorting space vehicles.
The 18 ejection seats, like 18 bullets, escaped at high speed from the cockpits of 24 heavy space transport aircraft and 48 space vehicles that were about to fly out of the atmosphere.
After a while, 18 gorgeous parachutes bloomed almost simultaneously in the sky.
Without further ado, Li Jianfeng immediately ordered: "The tracker and executor squadrons immediately launched an attack mission on the 6 heavy-duty space transport aircraft and 12 space vehicles that were parachuting. They set up obvious attack marks. Note that they are only limited to attacking. For the first two attacks, return immediately after the attack is over, return immediately!"
"Stalkers and enforcers understand!"
After issuing the order, Li Jianfeng urgently contacted the Supreme Commander of the Taibo Stars and informed him of the appearance of his own heavily equipped flying combat mech units.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Awakening of consciousness” emergency.
And frankly admitted that they will become a new threatening force, and both the Tiberians and the people on Earth may be the targets of their attacks.
He claimed that he would annihilate this "awakened" mecha force at all costs.
At the same time, he also emphasized that while annihilating the mecha troops, space vehicles and heavy space transport aircraft may accidentally enter the airspace under the jurisdiction of the Tiberians, but there will never be a spark falling on the heads of the Tiberians. I hope Get understanding.
The supreme commander expressed concern and understanding, hoping to deal with the awakened mecha force as soon as possible.
Just after Li Jianfeng completed the connection with the Supreme Commander of the Taibo Stars, Cheng Jiahang immediately issued an attack order to the two squadrons.
In the fire control radars of the "Tracker" and "Executor", the attack marks of 6 heavy space transport aircraft and 12 space vehicles are particularly eye-catching. They are different from other aircraft in appearance characteristics, showing a kind of lightning. Orange glow.
18 laser beams were fired from the two squadrons, directed at the 18 aircraft with orange glow 30 kilometers away.
After streaks of fire that pierced the sky, 6 heavy space transport aircraft and 12 space vehicles were hit one after another. As 18 fireballs exploded, they turned into wisps of burning debris and fell towards the earth.
The heavy space transport aircraft formation that was attacked immediately fled into the vast deep space, while the escorting space aircraft turned around and rushed towards the incoming "tracker" and "executor" squadrons at high speed.
"Activate the dark matter protective barrier!" Cheng Jiahang ordered.
As streaks of electric light lingered on the aircraft of the two squadrons, their fuselages were without exception shrouded in a light blue glow.
Two squadrons of dark matter protective barriers activated.
At the same time, the 36 incoming escorting space vehicles also opened the dark matter protective barrier, and the two sides launched a fierce confrontation above the geosynchronous orbit of more than 100 square kilometers.
The two sides fought hand to hand.
The aircraft cannon commonly used in close combat became the main attack weapon for both sides.
For a time, the dense air cannons lit up the entire airspace like a continuously weaving and flowing carpet of light. Hundreds of space vehicles from both sides came and went, interspersed with each other, and attacked...
Since both sides have activated the dark matter protective barrier, within 3 minutes, that is, before the dark matter protective barrier generates lethal radiation, the aircraft of both parties will not suffer substantial damage.
But as soon as three minutes passed, the pilot was either killed by lethal radiation, or died together with the aircraft in the cold explosion.
Although the aircraft cannons on both sides were extremely powerful, they did not explode after hitting either side's aircraft. Instead, they were directly ejected by the huge kinetic energy generated by the aircraft.
After a brief roll and evasion, the aircraft returned to its original flight attitude.
"Stalkers and executors, withdraw from the battle immediately! If you hear me, withdraw from the battle immediately!" Li Jianfeng shouted loudly.
"Report! Our two squadrons have been entangled with each other and cannot get rid of them!" Cheng Jiahang responded.
Li Jianfeng looked at his watch anxiously. At this moment, 1 minute and 47 seconds have passed for both sides to activate the dark matter protective barrier. After 1 minute and 13 seconds, both sides' dark matter protective barriers will be forced to interrupt. By then, a tragic air battle will be inevitable. .
"Detach a part of the aircraft to pursue the heavy space transport aircraft formation! Repeat, detach a part of the aircraft to pursue the heavy space transport aircraft formation!" Li Jianfeng ordered sternly.
"clear!"
Soon, Cheng Jiahang led the "Tracker" squadron and began to gradually leave the war zone. They started instant acceleration and rushed from the melee aircraft group to the airspace about 60 kilometers behind the target in just 3 seconds.
Upon seeing this, the escort formation quickly began to return to defense. Both sides knew very well that the heavy space transport aircraft formation without escort was equivalent to meat on the chopping board and became the target of wanton slaughter.
After the escort formation withdrew, the entire fiercely fought airspace instantly became quiet, leaving only the 48 space vehicles of the "Executor" squadron staying in place alone.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
According to the previous deployment, they also quickly returned.
The "Tracker" squadron that caught up with the heavy space transport aircraft formation and the 36 space aircraft formation that came to escort were once again engaged in a melee. The number ratio between the two sides was 4:3, making them almost evenly matched.
In the long and narrow air combat area, the space vehicles of both sides were fighting each other, and the battle was fierce and inextricable.
At this moment, there was only a mere 70 seconds left before the dark matter protective barrier on both sides was forced to interrupt. After 70 seconds, the two sides really started to fight.
This is what Li Jianfeng is extremely unwilling to see.
Originally, the purpose of the two squadrons' attack on the heavy space transport aircraft formation was to show off to the Tiberians, but now it turned into an uncontrollable fierce air battle, which really surprised him.
Two large communication screens in front of Li Jianfeng flashed urgent calls from both warring parties at the same time. One was a call that evacuation was impossible, and the other was a call for immediate reinforcements.
Of course, both wartime communications were sent via newly developed encryption equipment.
During the entire mission, only the commander-in-chief Zhou Yun and the 18 pilots who performed the parachute knew about the specific combat plan of the heavy-duty space transport aircraft formation and the escorting space aircraft formation. Others, including the deputy commander-in-chief, did not know.
Therefore, there was a strange phenomenon that the escort formation kept calling Li Jianfeng for reinforcements.
Of course, this tactic is necessary.
In order to appease the escort formation and heavy space transport aircraft formation, Li Jianfeng gave the explanation that the reinforcements had been attacked by Dark River Company.
Li Jianfeng knew very well that if he ignored it, the escort formation would not truly cooperate with the "Stalker" squadron to fight this "battle", and the fake show would not be real.
Ten seconds later, 200 space vehicles took off from a space base in the Victoria Desert. However, their goal was not reinforcements, but just for show.
"Escort formation, reinforcements will arrive in 1 minute and 5 seconds. Your formation will immediately stop fighting with the opponent and fly to the escort airspace!" Li Jianfeng ordered.
After putting down one communication device, he quickly picked up another. He looked at his watch anxiously. At this moment, there were only 15 seconds left before the dark matter protective barrier on both sides was forced to interrupt.
He immediately ordered: "Stalker Squadron, I have ordered the escort formation to evacuate the war zone. After your squadron pretends to pursue for a certain distance, return immediately, return immediately! Pay attention, be sure to leave the opponent before the dark matter protective barrier closes!"
"Stalkers understand!"
The escort formation withdrew and flew towards the heavy space transport aircraft formation ahead. The "Tracker" squadron also changed course after pursuing for a few seconds and returned to the military space airport in the hinterland of the Gibson Desert...
Li Jianfeng breathed a long sigh of relief. Suddenly, the large communication screen in front of him lit up, and the supreme commander of the Taibo Stars appeared on the screen.
"Why did you stop chasing the awakened mecha force?" the supreme commander asked.
"At close range, the advantages of space vehicles cannot be used at all. Once the flying combat mechas are dispatched, the former will be completely wiped out."
Li Jianfeng's words reminded the supreme commander of the massacre in which the Dark River Company's flying combat mecha severely damaged the space vehicle of the Crisis Program in the previous battle.
He pondered for a while and then asked: "Then why did you send out another space vehicle force?"
"Prepare to attack the awakened mecha unit from a long range."
As soon as Li Jianfeng said his words, he immediately felt regretful. His words meant that the mecha army would be wiped out. Otherwise, the show would not be able to continue.
After a brief moment of regret, he did not make any forced explanations or changes. After thinking about it, he felt that the answer just now was the most reasonable explanation.
He secretly thought that perhaps his words would make the Tiberians more convinced that this "awakened" mecha force was the target that the people on Earth wanted to quickly eliminate.
On the contrary, it is more conducive to the completion of the task.
However, what follows may be more cruel than expected.
