The joint operations meeting between the Buosiris and the Mycenaean reinforcements Agamemnon ended. As soon as Li Youde left the tactics room, he ran into Lieutenant Anton who was unable to attend the meeting because of the maintenance of the aircraft.
"How is it?" Anton asked.
"As discussed before, we will take the lead to create a breakthrough first, and then the Agamemnon will contain the enemy. We will seize the opportunity to recover all human weapons and fighter jets and break into the atmosphere."
"Is the Agamemnon in good condition? Are they sure they can escape after we leave?"
"They said they had brought all the weapons they could, but there were only nine humanoid weapons."
"9 stations? I remember saying it was 8 stations before."
Li Youde scratched his face and said: "The Agamemnon rescued two people on the way there, one was an unconscious bald girl, and the other was a black man in HER military uniform. He claimed to be Booker Jones from the HER troops stationed on Mars. Lieutenant, now separated from HER. He asked Mycenae to heal the girls and temporarily take them in. In exchange, he will join this battle, and his humanoid weapons I have never seen."
Anton asked: "What if it's HER's spy?"
Li Youde said: "I don't think so, not to mention he seems to care about the girl very much. The girl is still in our hands, so we can have more combat power now. 12 hours later, we will start this atmospheric mission as planned For breakout operations, according to computer calculations we can land near the Himalayas, which will not be far from Lhasa."
"Yes!" Lieutenant Anton saluted.

The two battleships of the colonial satellite Mycenae began to head towards the earth, and the maximum battle speed was expected to reach the outer atmosphere in one hour. Waiting for them there were the two battleships of the HER 1st Legion, the Chimera and the Leon.
Analysis from the perspective of combat effectiveness:
In terms of warships, the Mycenaean side had two warships, the Osiris and the Chimera. Among them, the Osiris was a warship with extraordinary specifications, and its combat effectiveness and number of combat units were stronger than the two enemy ships. HER's two battleships are of standard specifications, but the nearby "HER Earth Circle Surrounding Network" can deploy battleships for support at any time.
In terms of humanoid weapons, the number of aircraft that the Mycenaean side can dispatch is 24, which is higher than the 20 aircraft that the HER side can dispatch. But similarly, as long as HER's reinforcements arrive, the advantage will be reversed at any time.
In terms of combat targets, the HER side is more passive. They capture the specific position of the enemy warship and predict the engagement time, but they cannot accurately know from which position the enemy will enter the atmosphere. The goal of the Mycenaean side was to bypass the Earth Circle network concentrated near the equator and try to avoid fighting the enemy or shortening the battle time by entering the atmosphere.
This is like an unfair football match. HER had to hold on to the goal, while Mycenae had to get around the enemy defender and score.
At 12:03, the Osiris and Agamemnon were captured by the HER reconnaissance force of the Earth Sphere Encirclement Network. Lieutenant Colonel Taglis, the captain of the Chimera, who obtained this information, judged that the enemy wanted to break into and land in Asia, and made an emergency transfer. The bow rushed to intercept.
"Lieutenant Colonel, the enemy uses the Osiris as the forward, and the Covenant standard battleship follows behind!"
"The Osiris will definitely make a forceful advance. We must disrupt the enemy's offensive and vigor, wear down the enemy and wait for reinforcements, send fighter jets to harass, and the humanoid weapons troops will be on standby!"
"Lieutenant Colonel, the enemy has also sent fighter jets to fight with our fighter formation!"
"Don't worry, observers and helmsmen, keep your spirits up. The enemy will definitely fire the laser cannon first. Be careful to avoid it! After the enemy's shelling, we must also fire back immediately."
Targris waited for several minutes for the Osiris to fire its first shot.
"Lieutenant Colonel, the enemy ship has entered our range, do you want to open fire?" the intelligence officer asked.
Taglis felt strange. He didn't understand why the Osiris didn't fire yet. Their laser cannons had a farther range than their own battleships. They should know this. There was no reason not to take advantage of this. Could it be that they The main gun is broken? He decided to test it out.
"Let the Leon fire first. The enemy should fire back immediately, so be prepared to evade!"
"yes!"
The Leon on the left side of the Chimera fired a laser cannon at the enemy. The enemy was obviously prepared to dodge. This shot only caused scratches at most.
Taglis raised his hand high and was about to put it down. He stopped mid-sentence: "The helmsman made evasive maneuvers according to the enemy's route. The main gun...wait a moment!"
The Osiris still did not fire, and even the Covenant warships following it did not respond. How is this going? He did not believe that the main guns of the two enemy battleships were broken.
He hesitated for a moment, and many people on the bridge looked at him, waiting for the moment when his hand fell. Just then, the Osiris opened fire.
"Dodge! Prepare to fire!"
Taglis waved his hand, and his helmsman turned with great force, narrowly avoiding the Osiris's bombardment. Targris immediately shouted: "Fire!"
The Chimera's main gun has long been charged. The gunner's thumb, which was waiting to press the launch button, finally fell down safely, and the hot laser finally flew towards its target.
"Hit the port deck of the Osiris!"
Taglis felt a little relieved. This time he made the right bet. Although the damage caused by this shot was not great, if it had been fired before, it would definitely be difficult to hit and would lose his own morale. It seemed that he had calmed down.
He heard the explosion.
"What's going on??" he asked. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a purple laser streaking across the bridge and piercing the side of his battleship.
"This... quickly avoid it!"
The Chimera's helmsman retreated urgently, but the hull was still hit by continuous laser fire.
"Report! Area x23 is damaged! 2 people were injured!"
"Report! The fifth water storage area is damaged!"
"The 5th and 8th gun bays were destroyed! The gunner was killed!"
"This is White Eagle Anton Gagarin's long-range sniper!"
Taglis understood. No wonder the Osiris was not in a hurry to open fire. They wanted to enter Anton's sniper range. The main gun of the Osiris is just a false shot, and the enemy will become complacent and stop moving because the shot missed. At this time, it will be more convenient for Anton to snipe, and at this time, the HER battleship cannot do anything because the main gun is cooling down. Fight back. Targris had to order a retreat. This retreat gave the enemy the upper hand in terms of morale. He did not forget Anton's existence, but he did not know the maximum range of Anton's updated laser rifle, nor did he expect that the Osiris would give up the main gun's range advantage. This round, the Osiris occupied the intelligence of cheap.
"The decision to set this tactic shows that they have been well prepared. It seems that our intelligence has been leaked." Taglis thought to himself.
Seeing that HER's battleship retreated, the Osiris fired a wave of missiles at the enemy array, forcing back the annoying fighter group in front of it. Humanoid weapon teams A and B seized this opportunity to attack together. This time the Osiris spent a lot of money and used all the transport aircraft, allowing them to take the humanoid weapons for a journey first to save the body's energy. Since there were no fighter jets, Harassed, the transport planes rushed forward like runaway racehorses. When they flew to the maximum safe distance, they unloaded the humanoid weapons and returned. It only took a few minutes for the humanoid weapons of the Osiris to appear on the front line.
"The enemy's humanoid weapons are coming!"
"Let our soldiers get out too! The enemy's long-range attacks should not be able to continue! Rush back!"
Taglis regrouped, and the two HER warships fired missiles together and then moved forward again. 20 Eagle-type units rushed out in batches and fought with the "lifeguards" of the Osiris. If this was not an empty universe, otherwise the battlefield would be filled with angry roars and roars from both sides.
Lieutenant Anton, who was responsible for guarding the Osiris, looked at the large formation and sighed: "It's a pity that my laser rifle overheated in order to drive back the enemies. Otherwise, shooting with so many enemies would have been exciting! Team Z! It's your turn to attack. , don’t embarrass me in this rare battle! I’m watching from behind!”
"yes!!!"
Lin Ao, Edward and Natasha answered in unison, and flew towards the front line with the Agamemnon's humanoid weapon troops.
