The 7th Marine Corps came out in full force and successfully defeated the sluggish troops of Light Years. The 60,000-strong army successfully joined forces and formed a rolling torrent of steel. It was connected with the storm clouds above and stepped on the earth below, heading towards the predetermined target in a mighty manner.
In the mobile command center, Chrysler, whose temples were slightly gray, stood still, looking beyond the obstacles of mountains, rivers and land to the towering base in the distance.
A circular fighter jet flew out from the command center, turned into nothingness, and quietly flew away.
This was the last reconnaissance aircraft. Chrysler only brought three of this type of reconnaissance aircraft. It was designed and manufactured specifically for Planet 4. Because it has little versatility, the output is extremely low and the price is extremely high. The price of a single aircraft is more than 10 billion. Even the 7th Marine Corps can only equip three.
It was fine that the first reconnaissance plane crashed inexplicably, but the second reconnaissance plane was destroyed in the direction of the army's advance, which showed that Chrysler's judgment was correct and he had found Chu Jungui's lair.
As for the third plane, Chrysler chose the south instead of the northwest where Chu Jungui's lair is. Chrysler wanted to prevent Chu Jungui from escaping. After Guangnian's defeat, the most likely direction of escape was to the south. The west and north were blocked by towering mountains. Originally, mere mountains could not stop humans who had entered the interstellar era, but the clouds here were different.
After the third reconnaissance plane flew out, no news was sent back at the scheduled time, so it was obviously destroyed again.
Chrysler's face was gloomy, but the army did not turn and was still rolling forward. At this time, those small tactics to confuse people were useless, because the front reconnaissance force of the army had discovered traces of the light-year army!
When Chrysler stood on the command podium, he displayed the real-time dynamics of each of his own forces. On the ground, countless chariots and mechas brought up billowing smoke and dust, which truly blocked the sky and the sun.
Previously, the 7th Army lost about 20,000 people, plus 10,000 various auxiliary and support troops. Now all 60,000 main battle troops have been dispatched. On the ground, a total of 15,000 tanks surged forward across a wide front of hundreds of kilometers. Thousands of assault boats in the low altitude accompanied the armored forces rolling forward. Behind the large force, 300 assault boats were larger than normal. Fire support boats twice as many were flying slowly. Although they may look clumsy, their ability to pour out instant firepower exceeds that of all other assault boats. Further behind, there are several mobile command bases like hills, which seem to be slow but are fast, following closely behind the large army.
At this moment, the advancing fire reconnaissance force had already collided with Guang Nian's troops. After a fierce battle, hundreds of vehicles were left behind and they had to retreat. But in the last picture sent back by the assault boat, a huge building complex could be seen faintly in the distance.
Chrysler smiled instead of being angry and said: "If you can eat my reconnaissance force in one go, it seems that the main force is here."
The staff officer said: "They still have at most 4,000 tanks, and we can swallow them in one bite!"
Chrysler rubbed the tip of his nose and said, "You are wrong. They will have up to 11,000 tanks here."
"11,000!" The staff officer was shocked.
"That old guy Morgan hid some key data from us. Unfortunately, not every subordinate is loyal to him."
The staff officer suddenly understood, and then said angrily: "He can't fight on his own, so he wants to harm us? How shameless! But so what about 11,000 vehicles? We can still eat it!"
Chrysler smiled confidently and said, "Where are the backups?"
The staff officer knew that this was the general's habit of making a final inspection before a battle, although based on the comparison of the strength of the two sides at this time, there was no need to leave any reinforcements. The staff officer opened the map and pointed out: "General Morgan's 50,000 people are 500 kilometers away from us, and the other 150,000 people are 900 kilometers away. The 12,000 people of the Lunar Army are 700 kilometers away and are approaching us. By the way, this is A truly elite force, much more powerful than Morgan's 50,000 troops."
"Where's the Jolly Roger? Didn't they land too?"
The staff officer looked a little strange: "They have only landed 5,000 people, and most of them are still where they are. There are only 1,000 people on the way quickly, and they will arrive in about 2 hours."
"How many people came to Jolly Roger?"
"120,000, but most of them are on standby in orbit."
Chrysler thought for a moment and then said helplessly: "It turns out that Morgan is holding him back, okay, don't worry about them. Let the troops in the rear speed up and move closer, and the whole army will attack!"
The army that had slowed down slightly accelerated again and headed forward. Countless assault boats began to accelerate, passing over the tank mechas on the ground. Above and around the assault boat, streams of light continued to fly by, falling on the troops light years ahead. In an instant, there was an overwhelming explosion, covering every inch of the hundreds of kilometers of the front.
The fire support boats have already entered the position. Each support boat has three main guns on each side. They are ejecting the shells a hundred kilometers away at a total rate of fire of one hundred rounds per second. The killing diameter of each shell is more than one hundred meters. , the absolute killing radius against tanks is also 20 meters.
The terrifying firestorm instantly swallowed up hundreds of Lightyear's tanks on the front line, and then continued to extend in depth, continuing to cover Lightyear's troops in the rear.
The long-range firepower alone directly disabled the front-line troops of Light Years, and the second-line and third-line firepower composed of assault boats and tanks had no place to be used. The 7th Army relies on its strong strength and irresistible firepower to keep moving forward, and nothing can stop it!
"It finally started." Chu Jungui breathed out softly.
The map in front of him was 10 times larger than Chrysler's, and the clarity was not at the same level. All deployments of the 7th Army are within the map, and even Morgan's 150,000 people in the rear appear on the edge of the map. At this moment, there are more than 3,000 light-year chariots in front of the front of the 7th Army. Another 100 kilometers ahead is the edge of the new base. 200 kilometers away, 50 energy bases are scattered on the land. Between each base are In the endless double-leaf forest, electricity pillars fall almost continuously. Massive energy surges along the 3-meter-diameter transmission pipeline and is distributed to different places. The excess energy ripens countless double-leaf trees in a few days.
However, those 3,000 Lightyear chariots were only to lure the enemy and attract firepower. The real offensive had already begun.
Chu Jungui finally gave the final attack order in his mind. Countless arks broke out of the ground a hundred kilometers away. Before the arks could stop, the rapid-fire cannons began to pour out firepower desperately, firing shells at a rate of 200 rounds per minute. Each shell They use crystal pillar explosives, which are a hundred times more powerful than ordinary explosives.
These arks have no power or life-support driving system. They are just fixed forts carrying dozens of rapid-fire cannons and corresponding ammunition feeding devices.
Ark is still the same. The rapid-fire cannon has not been improved and does not need improvement. That is to say, the artillery shells are barely advanced, but they are comparable to those of the 7th Marine Corps. The only thing Chu Jungui relied on was that there were more arks and more rapid-fire cannons. In fact, the real fire coverage was only 3 minutes.
1,000 Ark turrets, 30,000 rapid-fire cannons, bombarding at full speed for 3 minutes only fired 18 million rounds. Based on the power of 300 kilograms of standard TNT per artillery shell, the yield is actually not much.
Countless small mushrooms together formed an extremely huge mushroom cloud, rising slowly on the earth.
Chu Jungui did not place his hopes on fire coverage. The real feast he prepared for the 7th Army was actually tanks.
Of course, the tank has been upgraded, from simple to ordinary, barely able to catch up with the lowest level of the Federation's standard tank from 100 years ago. If you want to destroy the tanks of the 7th Marine Corps, you still need seven or eight cannons. Of course, this is still a qualitative leap compared to the previous level of more than 15 cannons.
The chariot itself was not advanced enough, so the only thing Chu Jungui could rely on was that there were a lot of them.
From the north and south directions of the 7th Army, light-year chariots are approaching at full speed from all over the mountains and plains, more than 50,000 of them in total!
Chu Jungui put on his helmet, got into the mecha, and finally said in the command channel: "Let's go!"
Lin Xi, Li Xinyi and Li Xuancheng started their engines at the same time, and the three fighter planes soared into the sky and pounced on the densely packed group of assault boats at low altitude. Zhizhe and Kaitian raised their murderous auras, and their consciousnesses dispersed into the two attack groups in the north and south, preparing for the next desperate fight.
In the horrifying world, only Brother Dao let out a long sigh, infinitely sad.
An unprecedented fight unfolded on the ground. Taking advantage of the chaos after the 7th Army was covered by fire, countless light-year chariots rushed into the 7th Army's formation at full speed, and rushed to the end. The ground has entered complete chaos. The light-year chariot that charged first did not stop at all. Even if it collided, it would knock out a passage. The following chariots poured in like a frenzy.
The north and the south meet.
The battlefield continues to spread, and the two sides completely enter into a melee. You are among me, and you are among me. Several enemies will always appear when the scope flashes. The charioteers were so crazy that they didn't care about aiming at all. They just kept firing and firing again and again until they were destroyed.
The federal fire support boats at the rear of the battlefield had just tried to block the light-year chariot wave with firepower. The storm clouds suddenly violently violently struck, and countless thunder and lightning fell, causing these fire support boats to burst into flames and fall. Afterwards, no more thunder and lightning fell from the storm clouds, but continued to surge. The sudden increase in radiation made all electronic communication methods ineffective.
Everything, everything!
Heavy and dense footsteps sounded on the ground, and dozens of modified four-legged and eight-arm mechas appeared on the battlefield. Chu Jungui's consciousness kept locking on to the low-altitude assault boats one after another, and then used harpoon cannons to pierce them and drag them to the ground.
With a bang, Chrysler took off his helmet and slammed it on the ground. The communication channel was filled with electronic noise, and nothing could be heard clearly. The screens on the command podium were all distorted stripes of color. Only those screens that did not rely on external communication could still display normally.
The current effective range of Chrysler's direct communication is only 200 meters.
His face was gloomy, and a piece of data that Morgan was trying to hide suddenly flashed through his mind. Without effective command and formation, that is, a melee, the Lightyear Chariot's hit rate was 71.4%, while the Federation only had 20%.
