On the cement floor that had been smoothed for a long time, next to a missile launch vehicle that had already set up a missile launcher, the missile's tail flame blew up a cloud of dust.
Amidst the billowing smoke, a missile rushed directly into the sky, and then quickly adjusted its flight direction hundreds of meters above the ground.
On the horizon, countless white smoke trails rose into the sky, and the Airanshir Empire's anti-aircraft missile positions finally began to counterattack.
These long-range anti-aircraft missiles directly intercepted the sweeper vehicles that were entering the atmosphere, blowing the sweepers into pieces before they could land.
At the same time, on the defensive position of the Eilanhill Empire, near the reverse slope of the mountain, thickened concrete gates were slowly opened.
Then a special platform revealed itself bit by bit along the track. After completely fixing its gun position, the electromagnetic gun with a huge caliber raised its barrel.
The electromagnetic gun, which had an obvious advantage in terms of range, began to roar as the missile array began to boil. The shining barrel fired shells at extremely fast speeds, shooting non-stop into the distant sky.
A falling Sweeper spacecraft suddenly shattered in the air as if it hit something, turning into a pile of scattered debris that evaporated into the atmosphere.
On the other side of the battlefield, a group of Crusher bombers that were about to approach the Airancire Empire's position were suddenly intercepted by the Airancire Empire's anti-aircraft missiles soaring into the sky, causing heavy losses in an instant.
These Crusher bombers, which had just been beaten by a group of F-15 fighter jets, were disrupted again just after they reorganized.
Large bombers crashed to the ground one after another, and the remaining Guardian Air Force aircraft began to hurriedly avoid the anti-aircraft missiles that were constantly correcting their trajectories.
The latest visual imaging tracking guided missiles are very accurate and there is almost no possibility of being deceived. Once locked by them, it is absolutely difficult to get rid of them.
What's more interesting is that these new missiles use more advanced engines, have longer ranges and fly faster, making them very difficult to defeat.
Coupled with a powerful warhead that uses unique magic and charges to complement each other, the damage capability of this missile is also outstanding. It looks smaller in size, but is actually many times more powerful.
While the Guardian bombers that were avoiding these missiles were still dispersing in confusion, a shell from the electromagnetic anti-aircraft gun penetrated one of the bombers.
Because the speed was too fast and the power was too great, the Watcher's Crusher bomber was instantly broken into two pieces, and the huge fuselage was like a torn rag.
Finally, as the last anti-aircraft missile swung out an S-shaped trajectory and hit the last Crusher bomber, there was no longer a Watcher aircraft in the sky.
Further in the sky, Prowler fighter jets are accelerating to escape, and F-15 fighter units are also withdrawing from the battlefield. In the more distant sky, there are countless meteors falling, and the Watcher reinforcements are densely packed in further areas.
fell onto Higgs 5.
"The enemy's anti-aircraft firepower is very powerful... We tried to get close to the opponent in the air, but we paid a heavy price..." A sweeper walked up behind his companion who was standing on a high place watching the battle in the distance and reported.
"Ah... these damn insects are really struggling to their death!" The sweeper staring into the distance sighed bitterly, and then suddenly turned around: "The ground troops' attack was blocked, allowing more follow-up
Troops deploy!"
"As you wish! Sir!" The sweeper nodded, turned and left the high ground.
In the underground headquarters of the Airanhill Empire, Andre was standing in front of the map table, watching the enemy's encirclement expand little by little.
He never thought of using a ground counterattack to eat up the enemy's landing troops, because it was simply a waste of the limited forces in his hands.
For him who does not have sufficient reserves, arranging his troops on the defense line and relying on solid fortifications to block the enemy layer by layer is the safest and most efficient way of defense.
As for defensive counterattack, he really didn't want to think that the opponent's space fleet had already driven away his own space fleet. Under the premise of losing air supremacy, "driving the landing force into the sea" was just wishful thinking on the part of the defender.
What Andre wants now is to be able to get entangled with the opponent's offensive forces so that the opponent's space fleet cannot take advantage of the suppression advantage of long-range firepower.
Don't do a Watcher version of orbital bombing then, then his side will really suffer heavy losses.
"General! The enemy's air attack has temporarily stopped, and all fighter wings are replenishing and resting." An officer walked behind Andre, stood at attention and saluted and reported the battle situation in the air.
"Very good! Clean up the ammunition inventory and adjust the distribution in time... We may have to persist here for a long time, don't waste the reserves!" Andre nodded, and then gave instructions.
"Yes! General!" the clone officer replied with another salute.
Andre looked at the clone adjutant standing on the other side of him and asked: "Has the enemy's landing point been determined?"
The adjutant immediately raised his head and replied: "Yes! General! We have driven two-thirds of the enemy's vehicles that entered the atmosphere to the designated area, and the computer has roughly calculated the most densely populated enemy landing location."
"I hope we can give our guests a surprise!" Andre nodded again, his tone full of ridicule.
The adjutant also smiled slightly and said, "I hope! They may not know yet, and they don't know how long we have been preparing for today's welcome ceremony!"
"Then... let's start!" Andre felt that he could start to fight back.
Of course, his counterattack will definitely not be the low-end way of using soldiers to launch a ground counterattack. He is going to set off a huge fireworks to show the watchers.
"Launch the Dongfeng hm-5 ballistic missile! Let our guests see the mushroom cloud!" After Andre finished speaking, he looked at the officer on the side.
The officer nodded slightly, grabbed the phone in front of him, and loudly ordered: "Launch the first round of nuclear bombs! For His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" On the other side of the phone, the officer on duty pressed the red launch button in front of him, and a nuclear bomb rose into the sky, dragging a long line of thick smoke, and rushed towards the place where the earth and the sky meet in the distance.
.
"Long live my emperor!" Another missile silo was lowered, the officer turned the launch key, and then pressed the launch switch.
The same Dongfeng FM-5 ballistic missile soared into the sky and flew towards the area where the watchers gathered.
"For Ilan Hill!" Farther away, in another missile silo, a clone soldier with a QR code on his forehead pressed the launch switch of the missile.
The smoke from the third missile spurted out from the smoke exhaust port next to the missile silo. The missile body, which was more than 20 meters long, slowly flew out of the silo, gradually moved away and finally disappeared behind the clouds.
More than a dozen missile silos were launched at the same time, and more than a dozen nuclear bombs carrying large-yield warheads flew towards targets that had been calculated in advance.
These places are target areas that have been mapped in advance by the Airansil Empire. The purpose of the counterattack just now is to drive all the Watcher's landing troops into these deliberately vacated areas.
"It is expected that if all the missiles hit the target, more than 75% of the enemy's landing force will be destroyed!" The adjutant said to Andre as he looked at the light spots on the map that were approaching the target area.
"Is this good news?" Andre asked noncommittally.
"That's right! General! In addition, the death list is out. We lost 2,100 puppet robots, 491 fighter jets of various types, and 113 clone pilots." The adjutant said while looking at the tablet.
Andre was silent for a second, and then exhaled a breath: "Compared to the enemy's losses, our losses can be said to be insignificant."
"Yes! General! But you know, the longer the time drags on, the greater our losses will be." The adjutant explained calmly.
Andre nodded: "I know, so I have to try my best to draw as many enemies as back-up before we collapse."
"You are right, General." The adjutant smiled and nodded in agreement.
Just as the Watchers' army was gradually approaching the outer perimeter of the Elanthir Empire's defense position, an inconspicuous black dot rushed into the landing site behind them at dozens of times the speed of sound.
In the sky hundreds of meters above the ground, this black spot suddenly burst into light as bright as millions of suns, instantly releasing terrifying energy.
The nearby sweepers were instantly vaporized and disappeared, and the destroyer tanks further away were also chopped into pieces and then rolled and blown away.
Before they could even scream, the sweeper troops around the explosion all returned to their energy state, and the sweepers and destroyers in the distance were all reduced to tumbling and colliding pieces by the spreading shock wave.
Further away, the Destroyer Tank was lifted into the air by the airflow, and the sweepers on the ground were also penetrated by the flying sand and gravel.
A catastrophe suddenly occurred, decimating the army of Watchers who had just landed on Higgs 5.
Just as the light gradually dissipated, a rolling mushroom cloud blew away the white clouds overhead, pushing the clouds into a huge ring.
The mushroom-shaped clouds that are constantly steaming upward are still expanding, spreading, and pulling the surrounding air. The spreading shock wave and thermal radiation have already reached a place two kilometers away.
The airflow is compressed, torn, and eventually oscillates repeatedly. The cleaners and destroyers wrapped in the airflow are like paper towels in a washing machine, being repeatedly beaten and torn, drifting with the current, and finally broken into powder.
One wave after another, the mushroom cloud here is still rolling in the sky, and another mushroom cloud over there has bloomed.
Countless Watcher troops were thrown into the air, and the Watcher aircraft that were still landing in the sky were also unable to escape and fell directly.
The entire earth seemed to be trembling with the explosions. The guards' troops had already lost a large number of troops before they even saw the enemy.
The guard commander who was standing on the high ground in the distance, watching everything that happened before his eyes, had a distorted face that was extremely difficult to see.
The face that was already disgusting to the extreme can no longer be described in words. It is simply a masterpiece of bad taste, the most subversive and vicious interpretation of beauty.
"These damn bacteria!...Shameless and cunning Elanshir people! Do they know that they are stealing the power of the universe! Do they know that this is a violation of the law? They will eventually pay the price for their stupidity!
Pay the price!" Seeing thousands of sweeper troops disappear before his eyes, the Watcher Commander standing on the high slope clenched his fists.
"Order! Continue the attack! I will personally eat their commander! To calm the anger in my heart!" He waved his arms and shouted at the top of his lungs.
In the universe, the 2nd Fleet commanded by Bakalov, who has already reached the flank of the Watcher Fleet and is less than 3.5 million kilometers away from the Watcher Fleet, has already aimed its guns at the 1st Fleet and is chasing and attacking the 1st Fleet.
Warship of the fleet.
"General! All battleships are ready to fire!" the adjutant walked up behind Bakalov and saluted as a reminder.
"Fire!" Bakalov ordered coldly.
He was the former governor of the Holy Demon Empire and the once ruthless ruler of the eastern region. If he were said to be an amiable uncle, many people would not believe it.
As a magician and a general who fights all year round, he is not a benevolent man, but a ruthless character who kills decisively.
Following his order, countless rays of energy shot towards the enemy fleet in the distance. As soon as the attack from the flanks began, the Watcher's fleet suffered losses.
A huge Arbitrator warship like a mountain was penetrated through the hull, collapsed and exploded.
Another battleship scrambled to avoid the incoming light, but behind it, another battleship that had no time to dodge was hit by the energy beam and instantly exploded into pieces.
Before the wreckage of the Airanthil Empire warships still floating in the universe could be recovered and eaten by the Watchers, fragments of the Watcher warships were added to them.
For a time, there were floating space junk everywhere, broken barbs from the Watcher spacecraft, and the Airanthil Empire space suit floating next to it.
Next to the puppet robot's arm is the Sweeper's arm, and next to the broken bridge of the Airansil Empire is the shaved off bow of the Watcher battleship. Behind the steel plate with the artistic number painted on it, only half of it is left.
Watcher battleship wreckage.
Compared with the fighting on the ground, the battle in space has already reached a fever pitch. The watchers did not expect that the fleet of the Airan Hill Empire would be so powerful, and the fleet commanders of the Airan Hill Empire had never encountered it.
