It turned out that the HER soldiers who had just retreated came back after seeing Team B split up and deal with the Humvee convoy. This time the six Yingyangs were completely dispersed and each attacked Team B's shield wall. One of them hit the back of Unit 3 directly.
Edward subconsciously hit the enemy plane behind him with the butt of his long laser rifle, and then while turning around, he drew his knife and sliced off the enemy plane's machine gun. Seeing that they could not take advantage, the enemy plane retreated backwards facing Edward, and at the same time activated the semi-automatic smoothbore cannon fixed on his arm to attack Edward. However, taking the initiative to open a distance in front of the No. 3 aircraft, which is good at medium and long-range combat, is undoubtedly asking for death. The enemy aircraft was destroyed by Edward without retreating for a few seconds.
While Edward was out of the crisis, Team B also changed its formation. Five "lifeguards" used shields back to back to build a semi-enclosed "tortoise formation", which bankrupted HER's outflanking plan.
"Edward, Lin Ao, kill the enemies on the outside!"
Following Old Jack's orders, Edward and Lin Ao each eliminated one enemy aircraft on the periphery of the "turtle shell formation." The remaining three Yingyangs saw that their situation was not good and had no choice but to retreat.
"Don't run!"
Edward likes to tease his weak-sighted opponents, and teasing Dmitry in New York was a manifestation of his bad habit. Therefore, he ignored Old Jack's warning and chased after him as soon as he stepped on the accelerator. Lin Ao was afraid that he would be ambushed and also chased after him.
"Edward, stop chasing me!"
Lin Ao originally wanted to stop Edward from advancing, but he heard two cannon shots suddenly coming from behind the slope to the west. Lin Ao looked up and saw that two large nets fell from the sky and covered Units 2 and 3!
"Holy crap! What the hell is this?"
Edward had never seen anyone use a net to catch humanoid weapons on the battlefield. He was so panicked that he failed to brake in time, causing Unit 3 to fall hard to the ground. He wanted to use brute force to tear open the net, but found that the net was made of special materials and could not be pulled open at all.
"Damn it! If only I could use a laser knife..."
Edward tried to pop out the laser knife hidden in the cuff of the machine body, but Unit 3's left hand was caught in the net and could not grasp the handle of the knife. At this time, more Yingyangs were seen coming to kill. The one in the lead had a sharply curved sword attached to its waist. This was Captain Sato's car.
Captain Sato said to his soldiers: "You go and subdue the silver one, I'm going to capture the black one!"
According to intelligence, the black Unit 2 carries the most laser melee weapons. Sato wants to capture Unit 2 himself and present it to General Sasaki. Thinking that he might be praised by General Sasaki, he was very excited. He waved the thermal sword from a distance, signed up his number and said: "I am Captain Susumu Sato of the Holy Roman Empire of the Universe, the pilot of Jujian Unit 2. Get out of the cabin and surrender, so I don’t have to go under the knife!”
Unlike Edward, Unit 2 remained motionless after being trapped, as if he had resigned himself to his fate. In fact, Lin Ao was panicked at the beginning, but he calmed down after hearing the reminder from AI Toth.
AI Toth has been reporting to Lin Ao the distance between Captain Sato and himself: "500 meters...200 meters...20 meters, prepare!!"
After hearing the AI say preparations, Lin Ao suddenly pulled up the joystick, causing Unit 2 to suddenly stand up just a few meters away from Sato's Eagle Type. Although Sato did not expect that Unit 2 would suddenly move, he relaxed his vigilance when he thought that there was a net covering the movement of Unit 2.
But he did not expect that Unit 2 did not fall down when standing up due to the restrictions of the net. As it stood up, the two iconic thick horns on the No. 2 nose turned into sharp thermal sabers, easily cutting through the net.
"The corners of Unit 2 are not just decoration!"
Sato was shocked and raised his sword to strike. But Lin Ao had already touched the laser hand halberd attached to the back of the machine body. When Sato's blade fell, the laser blade of the hand halberd had already pierced the Yingyan armor, and the shield originally held in the other hand was strong. blocked Sato's knife attack.
"Nani?!!"
The moment the laser blade pierced the armor, Captain Sato experienced fear for the first time in battle. He especially enjoyed the pleasure of using his thermal energy to cut off the crude humanoid weapons of the North American Rescue Alliance, especially imagining the fearful expressions of the enemies when they saw the red blades. But when something similar happened to him, his performance was not much better than that of the souls killed by his own sword.
"Run" was the first word that came to his mind, but how could he escape so easily when he was hooked on a twig of a handhalberd? But Sato insisted on retreating, and the result was that the laser blade cut through more armor along the way. Seeing this scene, he became even more frightened and subconsciously backed away again. Lin Ao flipped his wrist, and the laser blade directly cut off Sato's left arm!
"Captain! Do you need help?"
The soldier's concern made Sato calm down a little. As a commander, he must not lose his composure in front of his subordinates. Sato retreated to a safe distance, clenched the thermal knife in his hand, adjusted his breathing, and then regained his composure to kill back.
Lin Ao had already stuck his shield on the ground, took out another laser halberd, and held it on his chest to face the enemy. Sato aimed the tip of his knife at Unit 2, trying to penetrate Unit 2 with one blow. But Lin Ao used his left halberd to push it away when the tip of the knife came. At the same time, his right halberd cut towards the waist of the enemy plane. After the blade completely penetrated, he kicked the enemy plane away.
Sato's Eagle Type exploded as it fell to the ground, and the remaining soldiers tried to forcibly drag away Unit 3. But Team B had already killed them, so they abandoned Unit 3 and ran away.
Lin Ao stepped forward and cut the net on the No. 3 fuselage. Edward's first words after being rescued were: "Can the corners on the nose of my No. 3 fuselage also be heated?"
…
Team B and Team Z closed in. Why did Edward get scolded by Old Jack? The Osiris is seen fighting off both HER and "Mr. Lucas'" forces. The townspeople of Akita Town were furious. They tied up Mayor Barney and led the captured crew of the Osiris to open the door and surrender. Of course, even if they didn't, the special team Anton sent to the rescue would still be close to being able to rescue the people.
Strange things happened in troubled times, and the Osiris had no intention of intervening in the chaotic Akita Town. After picking up the hostages, it immediately left this place of trouble and trouble. As for the bastard mayor, Anton couldn't even ask what the citizens of Akita Town should do. Too lazy to ask.
Dmitri felt very sorry. He had wanted to help the Osiris sail more safely. But something like this happened by accident, not to mention how much time was wasted, and Captain Shepard was admitted to the ward. He personally went to the captain to apologize, but Shepard was very generous and said that North America was really in chaos. He would arrange for Dmitri to investigate in the future if necessary. However, these days, Anton would have to manage all the affairs on the ship.
