The New European Union (NEU) and HER are arrayed in the center of the Black Sea.
"General Alan, the number of ships of HER is almost the same as that of our army, but the humanoid weapons they carry are more suitable for land combat. They can hover in the air relying on flying devices and lack maneuverability. Our army only needs to attack HER as usual. The front fires a round of electromagnetic pulse missiles to interrupt the enemy's artillery fire that prevents our 'Partner Cavalry' from taking off. Use the mobility of the 'Partner Cavalry' to strike first!"
Admiral Alan was very satisfied after hearing the staff report. NEU's "Partner Cavalry" has advantages in performance, speed and air superiority capabilities. The only drawback is that it can only take off in fighter mode during naval battles. Knowing this, HER will fire dense low-altitude artillery at the NEU fleet at the beginning of the war to prevent the "Partner Cavalry" from taking off.
The tactic of using electromagnetic pulse missiles to paralyze the enemy and create opportunities for the "Partner Cavalry" to take off was exactly what Admiral Alan proposed. The Osiris only takes five seconds to recover after being hit by an electromagnetic pulse, but that's because the Osiris is a state-of-the-art warship. The electronic equipment of the HER ship takes tens of seconds or even longer to resume operation. Using this time, the "Partner Cavalry" has already reached them.
"HER is on fire!"
"I don't have a long memory, a salvo of electromagnetic pulse missiles!"
Admiral Alan gave an order, and NEU's electromagnetic pulse missiles rained down on HER's front. HER could only intercept a small number of missiles, and soon the entire army was paralyzed.
"Partner cavalry attack!"
"Partner cavalry attacks!!"
After the rain of missiles, companion cavalry jumped out of the deck one after another, shooting at HER like a rain of white arrows.
"Your tactics are really exquisite, Your Majesty General!"
Facing the praise from his staff, Admiral Alan's expression did not change at all, but he was still very proud in his heart.
"Your Excellency, three destroyers on the left wing have been sunk!"
"Why didn't you report it earlier?"
"Report to your Excellency, the Admiral, it was the one that was sunk just now!"
"What?"
Alan originally thought that this battle damage was caused by HER's initial artillery fire, but now HER's fleet should be paralyzed...
"wrong…"
Admiral Alan remembered something, something that made his hair stand on end, but his expression remained calm.
"Order the entire army to use sonar to search for the enemy. If you find anything, report it to me immediately!"
"Report, the left wing sonar detected several objects moving regularly in the water. Judging from the size, they are not submarines."
"Report, another destroyer has been sunk!"
"Are the objects in the water similar in size to humanoid weapons?"
"Uh...yes, General, how do you know?"
A drop of cold sweat broke out on Admiral Alan's forehead.
A few days ago, the "Phoenix" crashed on an island in the territory of the New Principality of Moscow (TPM). Afterwards, the driver submitted a report saying that HER's newly developed underwater humanoid weapon was found on the island, and electromagnetic pulse missiles were ineffective against it.
Admiral Alan read the report, which mentioned that three of the four underwater humanoid weapons newly developed by HER were destroyed. Alan thought that these underwater machines that were not afraid of electromagnetic pulse attacks were still in the testing stage, and four units should be the upper limit, but he did not expect that HER was much more than those four units.
"…Do you know how many enemies there are in the water?"
"The current estimate is about 6."
"There are only six..."
This number is not bad. Although he has not yet thought of a way to prevent humanoid weapons in the water, six humanoid weapons cannot cause too much trouble in a short time, and NEU's "Partner Cavalry" formation is also attacking HER's fleet. It remains to be seen whether the arrow from the sky will kill the enemy first, or whether he will be destroyed first by HER's speargun fired from the water.
The most important thing in this battle is whether the Crimean Peninsula can be captured.
…
The Osiris flew one kilometer along the east coast of the Black Sea. From the ship, you could see the heavy artillery array set up by the New Muscovy Principality (TPM) on the east coast.
"No wonder HER doesn't dare to provoke TPM. The only way to pass through these defense lines without damage is to drop nuclear bombs."
All the Osiris pilots were on standby in the hangar, but they were still far away from the defense line entering the Crimean Peninsula. Bart and others gathered together to watch the scenery outside through the screen.
While spraying hair wax on his head, Anton walked over and lectured Chi: "What are you doing! Why don't you quickly get back to your respective machines and stand by."
"You are the boss. You were still spraying hair wax before the war?"
"What do you know? If I don't fix my hair properly, it will block my vision when I'm sniping."
Anton's hairstyle is imitating a star named Leonardo a hundred years ago, Leonardo when he was young.
"I didn't expect that the 'White Eagle' who made HER so frightened would actually care so much about her hairstyle."
The trio of reporters were also among the drivers. Seeing Anton's "beauty-loving" look, Sima Qian couldn't help but tease him.
"This is the hangar! There's going to be a war soon. All irrelevant personnel will leave immediately."
"We want to record the appearance of the Osiris crew before the war. Don't you agree?"
"I only give you 10 minutes to shoot. You have already exceeded the time limit. Get out of here!"
The trio of reporters reluctantly loaded up the equipment and left the hangar, and the crew members who had gathered together dispersed. Lin Ao also wanted to return to the cockpit, but he was held down by Anton.
"What, what's wrong?"
"Are you nervous?"
Lin Ao blinked: "How do you know?"
"You new recruits all walked the same way before the war."
"I'm sorry, I haven't experienced such a big battlefield yet..."
Anton patted him on the back: "Don't be nervous. Remember not to rush too far during the fight. Just hide behind and shoot."
"Same as you, Sergeant?"
Anton punched Lin Ao in the face: "You bastard, I was sniping! Can you tell me to hide? The war will start soon, you charge with Team A!"
"You're not being unreasonable!"
…
The Osiris did not attack the Crimean Peninsula alone. It was also followed by four NEU submarines underwater. Billy Budd's "Partner Cavalry" team was also on the submarine.
Luke, the pilot of the "Phoenix", is also participating in a major battle for the first time. He is currently in the cockpit of the "Phoenix", and the Phoenix is fixed on the deck of the submarine "Swordfish", which means that he is in the sea. middle. Although the oxygen supply system of the "Phoenix" was fine, Luke still felt some difficulty breathing because he was in the sea.
"The psychological effects are so scary, I have to think of something else to distract myself from."
Luke took out a mechanics book and threw it aside without turning through two pages.
"How long will it take to arrive!"
At this time, Colonel Billy's communication came in:
"Attention everyone, the submarine's sonar has detected an unknown object ahead and is moving towards us. Everyone is on alert."
Luke swallowed and gripped the joystick tightly with both hands. He had heard his seniors on the same team scare him before, saying that there were sea monsters in the Black Sea.
The objects detected on the sonar were getting closer and closer to them, and the captains of each submarine were ready to let the other party get a taste of the torpedo if it got closer to 100 meters.
30, 50, 80...100 meters away! Four submarines fired torpedoes at the unknown object, but none of them hit.
"Captain Antoine, the unknown object is speeding up!"
Captain Antoine of the Swordfish immediately reported this information to Colonel Billy, who then informed Luke of the information.
"Luke, do you remember what you saw on the island?"
"Could it be that...Colonel, please inform all submarines not to approach that humanoid weapon alone!"
The one approaching them from the water was Warrant Officer Lawn of HER, who had escaped from the island before. A total of ten underwater humanoid weapons "Terris" newly developed by HER to compete for the Earth's oceans have been assigned to the European battlefield. A few days ago, Warrant Officer Lawn attacked the TPM port with four of them, but three of them were destroyed by Luke and Lin Ao.
Warrant Officer Lawn has always been worried about this. He risked being shot and left the fleet. He planned to go from the east coast of the Black Sea to Trabzon to attack the Osiris parked there to avenge his dead comrades. Unexpectedly, he was killed halfway. Enemies meet.
"I actually encountered the NEU fleet and the Osiris! Dechen, Janis and Ruben, you are waiting for me to avenge you!"
Warrant Officer Lawn controlled the "Terry Reese" to approach the NEU submarine at full speed. Facing his menacing attack, the submarines could only aim their bows at Laun and fire torpedoes. Now turning around would expose their more vulnerable flanks to the enemy.
"No, Colonel Billy, I suggest that your 'Partner Cavalry' formation immediately take off and leave this sea area!
"That's all it can do..."
"College! Phoenix is now in fighter mode and can fight in the water. Please allow me to stay!"
Faced with Luke's request, Billy was unable to make a choice. Indeed, facing the much more flexible humanoid weapons in the water, the four carrying submarines were basically unable to fight back. But if the "Phoenix" is destroyed in the water, the gain will outweigh the loss...
"College!"
"I understand...but I only allow you to fight in the water for five minutes. After five minutes, whether you have shot down the enemy plane or not, you have to fly out!"
"yes!"
Eleven companion cavalry flew out of the sea, while Luke's "Phoenix" followed the Swordfish to attack the "Terry Reith".
Lawn and the submarine group were still close. Under his control, "Terry Reith" flipped freely in the sea like a bloodthirsty sea monster. One submarine was sunk by him using a "harpoon" at close range, and another was paralyzed by the "Terry Reith" electric harpoon...
"Stop the Swordfish! Stop the advance!"
Captain Antoine stopped his submarine just in time, passing now would be like putting meat into the tiger's mouth.
"Luke, can you hear me?"
"Here, captain, what are your orders?"
"Listen up, you drive the Phoenix and lurk below, wait until the enemy's humanoid weapons approach the Swordfish, and then attack."
"But…"
"This is an order!"
Antoine asked the other submarine to retreat at the same time. He turned to face the entire crew: "I want the Swordfish to be a decoy. You all go to the escape cabin. I want to live and die with this ship!"
"Captain, we..."
"Stop talking nonsense! NEU still needs you to continue to fight against HER's invasion. Let's go!"
"We will never forget you!"
The officers and soldiers of the Swordfish were filled with tears and paid military salutes to Antoine.
Luke also understood what Antoine was going to do. He wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and focused his attention on the front of the Swordfish.
The Swordfish fired torpedoes while rushing towards Lawn. Lawn admired this very much: "The captain of this submarine is a man, but you will all become underwater ghosts today!"
"Terry Reith" raised his electric harpoon and headed towards the Swordfish. As his electric harpoon penetrated the Swordfish, Luke fired his laser.
"I can never return to the universe with Johnny and the others..."
Accompanied by the explosions of the "Terry Reese" and the Swordfish, the "Phoenix" rushed out of the sea.
"Colonel, Captain Antoine, he..."
"I know, he is good."
Billy Budd looked northwest, and the outline of the Crimean Peninsula became increasingly clear.
