Chapter 125 Gibraltar (2)

On the sea surface dozens of kilometers away from Gibraltar, the gloomy cumulonimbus clouds pressed the sky very low, and the waves several meters high on the Atlantic Ocean made thousands of tons of warships rise and fall. To the surprise of the United Army, after PLANT withdrew some of the logistics supplies, the combat troops still wanted to be part of them.

In addition to the ZAFT army and vassal army withdrawn on the Iberian Peninsula, Gibraltar Fortress still has considerable combat power (the tree has never understood it. In the original work, where did Gibraltar troops withdraw? Cross the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean to Capantania?).

The main force of the Atlantic Federation has begun to move to the universe, and the attack on this fortress, which has been known for its sturdiness since the AD era, is the Eurasian Federation Army with little combat experience.

Since losing a lot of combat power twice in Africa and Alaska, the Eurasian Federal Army today is far less powerful than before, especially in the absence of pilots in MS use, even if there are powerful manufacturing companies like Action Industrial, it is a very troublesome.

There are some amazing pilots, but unfortunately they are all in the universe. The special beam shields, things like Hibernon Gundam have not been popularized. The soldiers still use the attack daggers from the Atlantic technology and the Eurasian Federation's own production of GAT-01.

When the watch's pointer pointed to 3 pm, under the order of the Lieutenant General from France, the attack from the sea, land and air began suddenly.

"The Second Fleet has entered an attack state, the full VLS system is turned on, and all ground missiles are launched!"

"Victory, the side deck of the Ark of Royal is open! The electromagnetic catapult starts working! MS, MA attack!"

"The Third Mechanized Army began to attack! Heavy artillery! Suppress the shooting!"

The cruise missiles from the sea and the heavy artillery on the ground were like raindrops, plowing the entire Gibraltar at a density of several rounds per square meter. Behind the heavy barrage were hundreds of MS, tanks and fighter jets! Tens of thousands of mechanized infantry also began to keep up.

The whole sky seemed to be burning red, with hot flames rolling, and the strong smell of gunpowder almost made people unable to open their eyes. Every breath is a destruction of the lung lobes.

Continuous beam cannons, missiles, and electromagnetic shells bombarded continuously for half an hour, reaching nearly 10,000 tons of ammunition thrown. The heights of Gibraltar Fortress were cut off by several meters above sea level.

As the roar of missiles and shells fell, MS and the tank had already entered the visual range! It was really a barrage like a textbook attack! Unfortunately, Gibraltar was quiet, as if all ZAFTs were withdrawn before the attack.

"The MS troops are still 10 kilometers away from the fortress! The attack aircraft wing began to enter the attack position!" On the other side of the Strait of Gibraltar, the troops led by Rhodes were still standing by, listening to the constant broadcast of the battle situation in the communicator.

"It seems that ZAFT's sissies are evacuating, it's so boring." The 'Iron Arm' put his legs on the bridge and mumbled lazyly.

"Hmph, that's because the commander of ZAFT is powerful, not as stupid as Ober back then." Rhode laughed and his face became serious. Faced with such a huge number of battles, only idiots placed the troops on the ground without depth, fighting against the raindrops of artillery shells and missiles.

It’s better to let the other party blow the ground up and let the other party blow hard when the other party relaxes their vigilance!

Sure enough! In just one minute, when the MS flying in the air was less than 5 kilometers away from land! The silent front suddenly looked like boiling water! A large number of undestroyed artillery rose from the ground! Hundreds of Deans, Gehn attacked from the exit of the cliff, and just left the launch tube, he aimed the muzzle at the Earth Army MS unit that was close to him!

On land, dozens of heavy artillery fired at the coming chariot troops at almost the closest distance, led by two buildings on the top of the mountain!

This is Gibraltar! This is the strongest fortress in the British Empire for a hundred years in the AD era! How could it be trembling under the cover shelling? What is ridiculous is that the coordinator uses his own way to redefine the name of Gibraltar Fortress, one of the strongest fortresses of natural persons!

The sudden attack was terrible. The MS troops, which were already undertrained, were even more panicked. A young man from the Air Force thought he was flying a high-speed fighter jet and was constantly speeding up. The final result was that he collided with his friendly forces. Then two iron lumps fell into the sea with the gaze of Newton. A "thump" sound came from the sound of "thump".

The chariot troops in charge died even worse. Every heavy shell drop means that a small team of tanks disappears, and the cationic cannons evaporates from the world under the fan-shaped strafing. The attack of the United Army is like a flood hitting a dam and is stopped in an instant.

In just 15 minutes, nearly half of the troops were destroyed and thousands of soldiers were killed and injured! It was only at this time that the United Army stabilized its position. The MS troops that barely landed on the ground occupied a small bridgehead under the desperate cover of the attack aircraft.

As for the Marine Corps with two mechanized armies? Oh, they have been swept back to the starting position like garbage.

"Your Excellency! The MS Mobile Legion lost more than half of it! The frontline commander requested to withdraw and reorganize the team!" In the flagship of the Earth United Second Fleet, the noisy communication sounds were already heard. The request for retreat, and the sound of reporting the loss was breathless.

"Reject! Let them stay on the spot and standby! How far is the second batch of attack troops? How long will the airborne troops from Madrid arrive!" The commander knew very well that once MS retreated, it would be a defeat. ZAFT would shoot down these panicked rookies from behind like hunting.

"Your Excellency! If this continues, the remaining 50 MSs will be destroyed!" The staff from Germany shouted, and those MS troops were mainly soldiers from the German Federation.

"Then let them all die in battle! For the final victory! Why are you still standing there! Issuing orders!" The Lieutenant General, with red eyes, pulled up the staff and threw them aside! Although he was caught off guard, if he was dragged into a war of attrition, the final victory must be himself!

Feeling the blood-red eyes of the commander, CIC did not dare to hesitate and issued an order: "The landing troops held their guards and waited for assistance! Repeat! Holding their guards and waited for assistance! The second batch of attacking troops were ready for speed! Launched a second wave of attacks in 15 minutes!"

Perhaps because I felt that it was not enough, the Lieutenant General said in a gloomy voice again: "Notify the reserve team opposite the strait and start the attack immediately! Transfer the 35th Armored Division to replace the two defeated armored troops! Keep going! Pressure the ZAFT Army defense line! We must entangle them tightly! By the way, the two destroyer detachments guarding ahead also push me up! Provide fire support!"

Like a gambler who lost his eyes, the United Army pressed heavier chips on the gambling table.

On the other side of the strait, Rhodes could almost see the fierce battle ahead on the radar, from the joint army's spring outing to the ZAFT counterattack, and then to the two sides' entanglements, in just half an hour. It can be seen that the bloodiness of the Eurasian Federation was also shot out, and the warships were all close to fire! Then they were destroyed by the underwater MS one by one. The fighter jets in the air rushed down desperately, fighting with Dean's high-speed artillery shells with missiles. In just a quarter of an hour, all the fighter jets of a gang were shot down.

The ‘Di’ communicator was connected, revealing the figure of the reserve commander, a colonel of Russian descent.

"The order of attack is here, Commander Laurenz. I hope you are not asleep watching the show." The colonel said with a dark face and stereotyped.

"Hmph." Rhode did not answer, but connected the internal communication and said lightly: "Brothers, I'm here to work. The idiot on the other side still wants us to help in the end, don't die."

"Let these rookies see what real warriors are." The mercenaries laughed wildly, and the eyes of MSs emitted a green and electric light.
