"You bastard... you are so unreliable. No wonder Nguyen Thi Mui left them in Egypt."
Lewis cursed and complained. He thought that the two warships had 20 nuclear bombs that could destroy the Osiris and the submarines of the Chang'an Cooperation Organization, but in the end, the two warships were easily captured.
He rubbed his chin and calculated: "If I just know New Rome like this, I will be laughed at. No matter what, I have to do something. Since the Osiris cannot be taken, I will blow Aden into rubble with a nuclear bomb and go back like this It can also be said that I wanted to blow up the Osiris with a nuclear bomb, but they escaped!"
In fact, at this moment, Lewis was commanding a warship to quickly approach the city of Aden. In order to prevent all nuclear bombs from being intercepted by the city's defense system, he needed to get as close as possible to the city of Aden.
"Colonel Lewis, the bay of Aden is guarded by Tigers."
"Don't worry about them... No, fire the laser cannon at the harbor, and the provincial Osiris will come back for repairs!"
Lewis's ability in commanding operations was not very high, and there were many such damaging moves. With one order from him, the laser cannon destroyed the harbor and shipyard where the Osiris stayed.
As a counterattack, Aden City's city defense system began to operate, and anti-air missiles were fired at HER's warships, but they were all stopped by the warships' barrage and the escorting Ying Yang type.
"This distance is enough, launch a nuclear bomb!!"
"Yes! All 10 nuclear bombs have entered the launch bay and will be launched in 30 seconds!"
Lewis looked at the city of Aden below him as if he were looking at a wasteland. In his eyes, the life of this city was nothing different. He didn't care at all whether the residents here escaped. He just wanted to drop the nuclear bomb as soon as possible and get out of here. Damn Earth.
"Countdown, 10, 9, 8"
Lewis closed his eyes. He didn't want to be blinded by the bright light of the nuclear explosion. It was a bit uncomfortable.
“6…”
"boom!!!"
There was a sudden explosion that made Lewis open his eyes in shock and asked in a panic what happened.
"Report! The missile launch port was hit by a laser weapon and cannot be used!"
"What!?"
It turns out that just now, after receiving the news that a HER battleship was going to Aden, Lieutenant Anton, who was not too far from the city, drove the machine back as fast as possible and shot through the nuclear bomb before it was launched. The missile launch port of the HER battleship.
"Asshole! Use other missile launch ports!"
"No! This battleship is an older model. Only the damaged one can launch nuclear bombs. The other launch ports are too small."
"Damn it... call it the Yingyang type! Transport the nuclear bomb to the hangar and tell the Yingyang type people to drop the nuclear bomb!"
"This...this is too dangerous!"
Lewis took out his pistol and pointed it at his men: "Bastard! Don't you want to avenge your comrades? Give me my order, or I will kill you now!"
Forced by Lewis's power, the soldiers of HER had to do as he said. No one knew the meaning of using nuclear bombs to blow up a city that had nothing to do with the African Legion.
"Running here consumes too much energy..."
Lieutenant Anton originally wanted to drive back Lewis's battleship with continuous fire, but he had just arrived in a hurry, and the body's reserve energy had been used up, and he had to wait for recovery.
"What an oversight for not bringing a live sniper rifle. Am I being spoiled by laser weapons? What is that sound?"
Anton heard a special sound, which was the sound made by something traveling at high speed on the water. He had no chance to hear such a sound in the colonial satellite. His curiosity drove him to look at the location of the sound.
"That's... Ten Swords Unit No. 6, Jiaolong!"
Moving at high speed on the water is the Jiaolong driven by Zhang Lei. This machine can be switched into "diving mode", "surfing mode" and "flying fish mode" through simple deformation. In the "diving mode", the dragon can fight in the deep sea area; in the "flying fish mode", the dragon can quickly jump out of the water and engage in air combat or land combat, and the current "surfing mode" can be said to be a special mode for rushing.
In the blink of an eye, the dragon had arrived below the Lewis battleship. Zhang Lei raised his gun and shot at the battleship in the sky.
"Let me sleep in the Gulf of Aden! Intruder!"
The distance was too far, and Zhang Lei's attack had little effect. He saw an Eagle flying towards Aden with a nuclear bomb in its arms. He cursed angrily, switched the aircraft to "flying fish mode" and jumped out of the sea to chase after it. .
"Don't even think about it!!"
The dragon jumped a hundred meters out of the sea and destroyed the aircraft before flying into the city of Aden in an eagle-like style. The nuclear bomb fell to the bottom of the sea without detonating.
"Zhang Lei! Don't be too aggressive. If you detonate a nuclear bomb, you will be in trouble!"
"I know, but..."
After hearing Colonel Chen Ma's advice, Zhang Lei knew that what he said was right, but if he did not stop him and let HER drop the nuclear bomb into the city, it would be all over.
"Is there no other way? The dragon can't fly to the height of the enemy warship. How on earth can we stop these madmen!"
When Zhang Lei was thinking, he saw a large aircraft suddenly appeared in the northwest direction of Aden City, but his radar had no warning at all.
"It's HER's reconnaissance transport plane!"
Zhang Lei had seen such a transport aircraft model, but he was curious as to why this aircraft appeared from the northwest of the city. Was it sent by Lewis to investigate the city defense of Aden in advance?
Lewis didn't understand what was going on. He was still not sure what the friendly aircraft was going to do. Before he could send a message to ask, he saw the transport plane unloading a red Eagle.
"It's the Red Knight!!"
The soldiers on the bridge cheered, seeing for the first time the legendary hero of the Empire.
"Why...why is he here?"
Lewis felt strange and quickly thought about how to deal with the red knight. If a popular person like the Red Knight is well taken care of, his return to New Rome will be smoother.
"Ah! It's the Red Knight! I am Colonel Lewis, a subordinate of General Nguyen Thi Mui. Are you here to help me avenge Nguyen Thi Mui?"
The Red Knight did not answer, and landed on the deck of the battleship in a swaggering manner, and quickly pointed the machine gun at the bridge where Lewis was.
"Red Knight!? What are you going to do!?"
The red knight said in a stern tone: "Trash! What are you doing with the empire's nuclear bombs? Do you know how much it costs to maintain a nuclear bomb? How many nuclear bombs have you just wasted?? You don't use nuclear bombs where they should be used? But you want to use it to bomb Aden, which is not under the jurisdiction of your Afrika Korps. Even if you want to avenge Nguyen Thi Mui, you should use it to attack more worthy targets!"
Lewis gritted his teeth after being scolded, thinking to himself, Red Knight, no matter how famous you are, your military rank is just the same as mine, so what qualifications do you have to train me? But he couldn't offend the Red Knight, so he could only say with a playful smile: "You are right! I will retreat now!"
"That's good."
Seeing that the Red Knight was about to leave, Lewis hurriedly said: "Wait a minute! Now that the African Legion has dispersed, please lead us. Only with you can the remnants of the African Legion regain their confidence!"
Lewis wanted to take the opportunity to join the Red Knight, but the Red Knight looked down on him at all: "Sorry, this is beyond my ability. Take your men to Europe to find General Karl!"
After taking off, the Red Knight drew a beautiful arc in the sky, returned to the transport plane and flew towards the south. Lewis gritted his teeth and thought for a while, and decided to do as the red knight said.
"Keep the green hills here, so you don't have to worry about running out of firewood. When I go to Europe, I can say that the Red Knight introduced me..."
Lewis turned the battleship's direction and left, and the city of Aden lifted the alarm. Zhang Lei's dragon floats on the sea surface like a backstroke, rising and falling with the waves. Zhang Lei himself lay tiredly on the driver's seat, looking at the sun that was about to disappear on the horizon, and said to himself.
"This crisis ended like this... I feel like I almost died here."
(I originally planned to write about Lewis and Zhang Lei in this chapter, so Zhang Lei would feel that way in the end, so let’s keep these two people for now.)
