Chapter 490 Alliance pilots also have bodyguards?!
Falcon City.
On top of the 100-meter-high "river embankment".
The soldiers of the Falcon Kingdom were crouching behind the bunker and waiting.
A few days ago, the alliance announced that General Yu Hanwan would bomb Falcon City. However, it did not say which direction the air attack would come from. There are only thirty-two anti-aircraft guns in Falcon City, eight of which were transferred to the palace in the center of the city.
, there are only twenty-four doors on the giant alloy wall that stretches for tens of kilometers, and the density of firepower can be imagined.
The officer in charge of the defense of the southeastern sector was Horet. Until a month ago, he served as captain of ten in the king's guards. However, due to the tight fighting situation on the front line, a large number of officers from the army were ordered to leave.
After being transferred to the regular army establishment of the legion, he was promoted three levels in a row and became a centurion of the city defense army in just one month.
Smooth sailing in his official career should have been a happy thing, but he could not feel any optimism in his heart, and instead felt worried.
Until last month, his salary was enough to feed and clothe his two wives and their family. Now that his salary has more than doubled, his family has become a problem even for food and clothing. You know
This is an oasis.
Even if all the wastelanders around the world are hungry, people here shouldn't worry about food and drink.
All because of this damn war.
In order to drive away the boredom in his heart and cheer himself up, he walked to the battlefield and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Everyone, be vigilant! Keep your eyes open! Alliance aircraft will use the cover of clouds to approach us! Searchlights will be aimed at the edges and gaps in the clouds, and we will keep a close eye on them! No matter what,
You are not allowed to let a single plane enter the royal capital!
"Long live the Falcon Kingdom!"
"Long live!"
The soldiers answered loudly, but the loud roar could not dispel the bitterness and confusion in the pupils.
There were only one hundred and twenty men on the three-kilometer-wide front, two light machine guns and one J anti-aircraft gun.
Not to mention it's still night time.
It is better to expect that the guys they have can shoot down Alliance planes than to expect Alliance pilots to misread the map and plunge their heads into their faces.
Horrett also knew that he was forcing others into a difficult situation, but at this moment, he had no other choice but to inject chicken blood into his subordinates.
At this moment, a white light flashed across the distant horizon, accompanied by dull thunder from the distance. Is it going to rain?
Maybe tonight's air raid will be cancelled... No!
Horrett, who was looking into the distance, suddenly changed his face and shouted loudly, "Hidden!"
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a fiery red smoke column fell from the sky and hit the farmland hundreds of meters in front of the river embankment.
The roar of the explosion drowned out the brief sound of breaking through the air, and the orange-red flames instantly rushed to a height of a hundred meters, pushing away layers of hot air waves.
Burnt shavings from the burned ears of wheat, dirt, gravel, tiles, etc... were all carried upward into the sky by the scorching smoke.
The first shot missed. However, no one took it lightly. Soon there was another white light flashing in the clouds in the distance, and the deafening roar almost followed the rolling sound of the cannon and landed near the river embankment.
Although the 400mm main gun had no accuracy because it was too far away, its huge power put fear on the faces of almost every defender.
It can go wrong many times.
But it's only once for them...\n....
The friendly forces near the position seemed to have run out of luck, as the third heavy artillery round fell and hit them straight in front of them.
The hot shock wave instantly dented the flat alloy shell downwards.
Even if the relics of the former civilization cannot be destroyed by conventional weapons, the terrifying Weiyou is enough to clear away all the bunkers piled on the river embankment...
The roar of the explosion echoed in his ears, and Horrett felt his whole body trembling. The same happened to the adjutant standing next to him, his hands and feet were cold, and his eyes were full of fear. Just now--
That heavy artillery piece destroyed at least one hundred of their troops.
"Sand Sea Spirit above... They are more than seventy kilometers away from us, why can they still hit us?!" The adjutant's voice trembled, and he wanted to turn around and run away.
"It's a rocket extended range bomb..."
It is true that ordinary artillery shells cannot fly this far. But rocket extended range shells are another matter.
Horrett swallowed and stared at the thick smoke covering the sky three kilometers away with his eyes wide open.
Fortunately, the 400mm main gun did not blow up the river embankment. The dented but undamaged alloy shell brought a little comfort to the hearts of many people.
At least the gods are still on their side. However--
Before they could cheer for joy, black dots emerged from beneath the clouds, causing the defenders on the river embankment to look horrified.
"Look over there!"
"Alliance aircraft!"
The black shadows that were getting closer and closer were like vultures flying in the sky. Horrett seemed to have seen the teeth and claws of those wild beasts.
"Damn...how many fights do they have?!"
There was no time to hesitate, and he shouted loudly regardless of the noisy sound of cannons in the distance.
"Get on the gun emplacement!" "Stop them!"
........
Hundreds of planes rushed towards them, and the defenders of the Falcon Kingdom panicked.
However, those who panicked were not loyal to them.
Lao Bai, who was sitting behind Ye Shi, also had his heart in his throat and gritted his teeth, fearing that a little wind might leak and blow his soul away.
Unpowered glider.
As the name suggests, it is an aircraft without an engine. If the aircraft wants to gain horizontal speed, it must dive. After the speed exceeds the optimal lift-to-drag ratio range, it needs to recover kinetic energy by raising the nose.
Therefore, the flight path of the aircraft is as exciting as a roller coaster, gliding forward in ups and downs.
In some distant time and space, this thing is called an "assault glider". Like an air-proof balloon, it is not some imaginative black technology. It can be found in the garden market for free or as small as "Operation Oak".
figure.
Compared with a parachute that hangs in the sky for a long time, this unpowered glider has a very short time in the air; the maximum gliding speed can reach about 300 yards per hour, which is the same speed as the "Harmony" train. And compared with the paratrooper's back color, it is relatively small.
The dog's fuselage capacity allows paratroopers to carry more equipment and ammunition.
But even though it has so many advantages, the shortcomings of this thing are also not small, that is, the accident rate is too high, and it is a bit useless. In the early days, this thing was towed by cars, winches or other aircraft to take off, just like throwing paper airplanes.
If "thrown" it out, the accident rate is no less than that of the spherical pod at the bottom of a heavy bomber.
It is precisely for this reason that after World War II, these two things were sent to the grave of history together, and gliders can only be seen in extreme sports.
Probably thinking of the Heart of Steel's unique altitude advantage, Mosquito picked this thing out of the trash heap of history and changed the boosters into two rockets with the warhead removed.
The flickering tracer light in the distance gave Lao Bai some comfort in his heart.
No matter whether we can land smoothly or not, we still have to reach our destination.
"Ye Shi! Aiming at N Ran
Xingfeng, who was holding the joystick with both hands, looked tense, his eyes flashing with rare excitement and madness.
"Okay! Give me an angle!"
Ye Shi chuckled, holding the handle of the heavy machine gun with both hands. The barrel of the gun extended out of the cabin sideways, and the sight was aimed above the river embankment.
At the same time that the glider's nose was pointing down, he pulled the trigger.
The sudden gunshots and hot bullet casings were left behind by the glider, and streaks of orange-yellow tracers were thrown towards the river embankment like raindrops.
One hundred and fifty gliders opened fire in unison, but the anti-aircraft guns on the ground were overwhelmed by the firepower net falling from the sky.
However, due to the angle restriction, the glider group's strafing only lasted for just half a minute, and the suppressed Falcon City defenders quickly returned to the anti-aircraft guns.
However, they soon discovered that the previous strafing was just the prelude to the storm, and the real nightmare had just begun.
The twenty escorting W-2 attack planes broke away from the flight formation and rushed towards the river embankment below. After a round of dive and strafing, they dropped the aerial bombs hanging under the wings.
The flames of the explosion bloomed on the river embankment in an instant.
On the ten-kilometer-wide defense line, the only four anti-aircraft guns were blown to pieces.
Looking at the burning flames, twisted steel, and the soldiers holding "ripper" rifles, pulling the bolt and firing into the sky, Horrett's face was filled with despair.
At this time, a captain with a bloody face ran over from the side limping, panting heavily and reported to his superior.
"Report sir! The Alliance blew up our anti-aircraft guns! We... have no more anti-aircraft weapons to use."
"I'm not blind, I can see.
After interrupting the captain's voice, Horrett raised his hand to hold the officer's hat on his head and turned to look at the palace in the northwest.
The straight-line distance from any section of the river embankment to the palace is ten kilometers. For an airplane, this distance is only a few minutes.
He closed his eyes in pain and whispered to himself, "It's over..."
The defense line in the southeast has been breached by Alliance aircraft, and anti-aircraft guns from adjacent positions are still firing in the sky.
However, because the distance was too far, the poor firepower was purely a futile struggle.
Traces of light danced in the night sky, like wood chips rising from a campfire.
Under the illumination of the searchlight, Myrdal, the commander of the Guards, standing on the castle tower in the center of the city, finally saw clearly the shadows coming from far to near.
And his face turned pale at the same time. Fifty?! No--
At least a hundred!
Didn’t the 1st Air Squadron severely damage the Alliance Air Force at Oasis No. 3!?
Why are there so many?!
Those planes obviously did not take off from Bicester Town, but probably came from the Heart of Steel that was entangled in an air defense balloon.
Just a few minutes ago, he received news from the headquarters that the 1st Aviation Squadron led by Arcant had been in contact with the alliance's flight formation.
Both sides each deployed hundreds of propeller planes and were engaged in a fierce exchange of fire on the edge of Oasis No. 2.
How many aircraft does the Alliance have? No--
It should be said that how many flower vendors are there in the alliance?!
According to the merchants from the east, there were only five or six survivors in the entire Qingquan City, but he had the illusion that he could not kill them all!
As Myrdal expected, the anti-aircraft guns scattered on the river embankment could not stop the Alliance aircraft at all.
The alliance just randomly separated a few planes from the flight formation and eliminated the anti-aircraft artillery positions along the way. The remaining fleet of aircraft kept crossing the river embankment and heading towards the city, heading towards His Majesty the King.
The castle came to kill him.
Seeing that the planes only had the last three or four kilometers left, Myrdal immediately shouted an order. "Fire!"
The eight quadruple anti-aircraft guns deployed on the castle opened fire in unison, and thick and long tongues of flames rushed towards the Alliance aircraft fleet, instantly lighting up the outlines of the aircraft.
However--
This intensive firepower did not last long.
Black shadows as fast as lightning separated from the fuselage, like a stray arrow, and hit the towers where anti-aircraft guns were placed.
"Oh shit!"
Seeing the towers and anti-aircraft guns engulfed by the explosion flames and thick smoke, Myrdal's eyes turned red for a moment and he cursed his mother angrily.
"What it is?!"
The city defense chief standing next to him also looked confused. Aerial bombs?
impossible......
It would be too outrageous for aerial bombs thrown from a distance of one or two kilometers to accurately hit their anti-aircraft artillery positions.
But it doesn't make sense if it's a missile. He didn't even see the missile's tail flame!
Looking at the burning fire in the distance, several intelligence players sitting on the glider excitedly high-fived their teammates beside them.
Of course, it was not a missile, but a six-rotor self-destructing drone "Ban Puli" placed in a glider.
This thing doesn't require a professional bomber to launch it.
Just throw the bomb directly from the cabin. Intellectual players carrying neural connection devices can switch to the drone's perspective for precise guidance.
The fifteen kilogram warhead is enough to send away the anti-aircraft guns on the tower.
"Hahaha! Well done!"
Ye Shi, who was sitting on the machine gun position, excitedly waved his fist, and before landing, he fired a bunch of shots at the castle with his machine gun.
Seeing the violently shaking fuselage and the buildings speeding past beneath him, although Lao Bai panicked a lot, he knew in his heart that he could only trust his teammates at this time.
"We're about to land!" "I know."
Gongfeng calmly glanced outside the cabin and saw that Gongfeng opened the variable-angle choke plate on the fuselage, and at the same time, a parachute sprayed out from the rear of the fuselage.
The speed of the glider dropped suddenly, and the upward-turned belly of the glider crashed firmly into the roof of a house.
"Grass!"
"Japanese! Please tell me in advance!"
Looking at the rapidly approaching roof of the building, Ye Shi hurriedly moved the machine gun back into the cabin.
Large pieces of rubble were blown away.
The wings on both sides were instantly disconnected, but they were not broken, but were actively exploded to prevent the fuselage from rolling over during the emergency landing.
Broken.
The violent impact almost made Lao Bai faint.
But after all, he was still a ruthless person with strength. He remained conscious until the plane completely fell to the street and stopped.
He took out the rifle from the cabin, cursed and climbed out of the deformed cabin while loading the rifle in his hand.
Looking at a few black African-looking laborers not far away, he fired two shots into the sky and shouted in Renlian.
“If you don’t want to die, get out!
Hearing the gunshot, the worker carrying the obstacle was so frightened that he immediately put down his tools and fled into the alley next to him.
After confirming the direction of the castle, Lao Bai subconsciously reached out and pressed the side of his helmet, trying to access the team channel to understand the casualties of each team, but found that there was no response.
At this time, he remembered that the commander of this operation was Guangfeng. "Ahem... Don't worry, I just confirmed that everyone has landed successfully. There is no big problem."
Coughing, he climbed out of the cabin, Guangfeng wiped a handful of dust from the eyepiece of his helmet, and took the LD-50 submachine gun handed to him by Ye Shi.
Lao Bai looked at him dumbfounded. "Are you... okay?
“Very good”
With a thumbs up, the strong wind pulled Yeshi's arm and pulled him out of the cabin.
Holding the 12mm heavy machine gun with a burnt barrel mark in his hand, Ye Shi, who was thrown into disgrace and disgraced, did not look scared at all, but instead had an expression of unfinished content.
"Oh my god...this is much more exciting than skydiving!" Lao Bai: "..."
"don’t worry,"
Seeing the concern in Lao Bai's eyes, Bang Feng gave him a reliable look, "We are not joking."
Meeting that serious gaze, Lao Bai was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he might indeed be a little too cautious - or overprotective.
Unlike Fang Chang, a high-level game player with full game talent points. Although Guangfeng and Ye Shi's game understanding is also very strong, it is not so strong that he is convinced and has nothing to say.
It is precisely because of this that he will always unconsciously assume the role of the eldest brother and have the idea that he should take more care of them, while ignoring their growth.
However, in fact, this worry is simply unnecessary.
Several of his buddies are indeed ordinary people,
They have not received professional military training, but after experiencing so many battles and life and death tests, their combat experience has already surpassed that of themselves when they first entered the game.
Regardless of the intensity of the war or the level of bloodshed, this cruel wasteland is no less than any dark period in real history.
This is a world destroyed after the war. A more brutal end of the world than troubled times.
Having experienced many tests in such a world, they are no weaker than anyone else, and they don't need anyone's care.
Every player in the Burning Legion is a warrior in his own right!
Maybe I should trust the team members more. "Well, I can see it. Looking at those serious eyes, Lao Xi suddenly smiled freely, and his tense brows relaxed a little.
“Then I’ll leave it to you.”
He admitted that the glider made his blood pressure rise. But now it seems...
They are not joking.
Giving him a grateful look, Bang Feng looked at Ye Shi seriously.
"Give Lao Bai the machine gun, and you go to a higher point nearby to support us..."
Our target is entrance C, be careful not to let the defenders place explosives at the door."
Carrying the sniper rifle seized from the academy on his back, Ye Shi made an OK gesture, still with that unserious and playful smile on his face.
"receive!"
Compared with random landings, gliders have another advantage: they don’t have to look for their teammates all over the street.
The five hundred Burning Legion soldiers who landed in the city quickly completed their reorganization, and advanced towards the castle in an orderly manner using three groups as one group, three groups as one squad, and three squads as one platoon.
The streets were quiet, with only sporadic gunshots and explosions. Most of the city defense troops and militiamen were concentrated on the river embankment ten kilometers away. Especially this area was a bombing zone "announced" by the alliance. Only a few guards in the city braved the danger.
Life-threatening patrol, it is rare to even see a living person.
Some of the guardsmen noticed the forced landings.
Although there was no order from their superiors, they still searched the area diligently.
Then--
There's no after that.
To deal with these guards carrying "Ripper" rifles, players don't even have to shoot.
The equipment of these guards is more stretched than they imagined. Except for the guard captain who is equipped with a 0mm ten-man pistol, most of the soldiers use a slender saber or a bolt-action "
"Bearer" rifle.
This kind of rifle that can be used as a spear is still very useful in the trenches, and the 7mm full-power bullet is powerful enough.
But in street fighting with complex terrain, it is simply a nightmare for our own people. Even if they are familiar with the terrain, they cannot withstand the fire of LD-47 assault rifles and LD-50 submachine guns.
Facing the Awakened Ones fully equipped with automatic firepower and light cavalry exoskeletons, the first patrol to search instantly became innocent enemies and was beaten and fled in less than half a minute.
At the same time, a certain tower that survived the explosion
On the way up, Myrdal stared dumbly at the smoldering city in front of him, still not understanding what was happening.
Just a few minutes ago, several black shadows destroyed his anti-aircraft gun position.
Just when he looked at Tianshu in despair, thinking that those planes would raise their noses and face them again, something unexpected happened. He saw that the hundreds of planes did not raise their altitude again, but descended.
He plunged into the city in front of the castle like a dumpling.
Bofu, the city defense chief standing next to him, murmured to himself in stunned silence.
"What are they doing?"
An adjutant said blankly, "...flight accident?"
"Hundreds of planes were involved in an accident at the same time. How is this possible?" After recovering from a brief daze, Myrdal's expression did not relax at all because of the "end" of the air raid. His intuition told him that the real air raid had just begun.
He immediately looked at the adjutant beside him and said loudly, "Who is in charge of the area in front of the castle!"
The adjutant immediately replied after hearing this.
"Report! It was Adham Centurion Myrdal who remembered this name.
That guy was an expert who he personally promoted from the militia to the Guards. Not only was he good at commanding, he was also a powerful Awakener himself.
Without a trace of hesitation, Myrdal immediately ordered.
"Give him another hundred troops! Let him go to the city immediately to search for those pilots! Be sure to catch me alive!"
The adjutant stood upright and gave a military salute. "Yes!"
Following Myrdal's order, Adem immediately led his centurions and more than a hundred reinforcements into the city, preparing to capture the Alliance pilot alive.
However--
What everyone didn't expect was that the moment the two hundred-man troops entered the city, there was a loud crackling sound in the city, as if dozens of firecrackers had been fired.
The flickering flames from the muzzles rose one after another in the dark city, as dense as the starry sky above.
Almost as soon as they stepped onto the street, the centurions led by Adem were hit by automatic fire blades. They were caught off guard and suffered heavy casualties in just one contact.
Falcon Kingdom pilots are usually equipped with only one pistol, and there is no room for extra ammunition and weapons in the cockpit of an ordinary aircraft. Let alone automatic weapons.
No one even thought that the pilots did not hide in the city, but organized and opened fire on them. Standing on the tower, Myrdal stared at the city with flickering lights in the night, and even lost his words for a moment.
The gunfire was at least the firepower of two thousand-man squadrons.
Are Alliance pilots not only equipped with assault rifles, but also equipped with two bodyguards in the cabin?
While Myrdal was still surprised, Adem rushed into the city with two hundred people. Minjing grabbed the walkie-talkie and cursed. "The firepower on the other side is too strong! We need reinforcements!" A harsh buzz filled the air.
The palace machine.
The other side probably used some kind of communication jamming weapon. He couldn't contact the rear at all and couldn't report the situation here. Bullets were flying in the street.
The person on the other side didn't seem to care about the ammunition at all. All his energy was of no use at all. Adem could only pray in his heart that his superiors could hear some clues from the gunshots and send more people over.
However, the other party seemed to have no intention of stalemate with them, and gunshots rang out from all directions quickly surrounded the street where he was.
Adem's mood suddenly sank to the bottom.
Although he could not confirm the situation on the side of his two captains, he could roughly judge from the direction of the gunshots that both wings of the defense line had been lost◇
It only took less than half a minute for the opponent to annihilate at least four of his ten-man troops and complete the encirclement of his two centurions.
This is definitely not something that dozens of pilots can accomplish! There are at least a thousand people on the opposite side!
Looking at the broken limbs on the street and the dense bullet holes on the wall, Adem, who had a murderous look on his face just a few minutes ago, now had only horror on his face.
Listening to the gunshots that were getting closer and closer, he grabbed the walkie-talkie that only produced noise and shouted desperately.
"Damn! These people... they are not pilots at all!" "We are surrounded by them!!!!"
