Mecha and Knife Chapter 372

Dozens of flares in the sky lasted for a long time, and the shells and missiles that were constantly falling or directly exploded in the air released short-lived light, making this battlefield sometimes like daylight.

Four imperial orangutans wearing simple protective clothing, very skillfully completed the preparations for loading armor-piercing shells and previewing.

And then fired decisively.

The armor-piercing artillery shells specially prepared to deal with the mechs rushed towards a federal mecha, dragging the tail flame.

But before the real hit, the federal mech had already completed its evasive action.

The armor-piercing shell that lost its target did not stop, and smashed among the imperial orangutan soldiers behind.

The booming sound was difficult to spread because of the extremely thin atmosphere, and it was as crisp as a dropped cannon on the blue star.

But its power is no less than that in the normal environment of Azure Star and Empire Star. Without the resistance brought by the atmosphere, the shattered shrapnel sputters at a higher and longer-lasting speed, and dozens of Imperial soldiers died instantly, and many more were injured.

Before they had time to consider these accidental injuries, the imperial orangutans operating the movable turret knew very well that their primary task was to block the sixteen federal mechs.

So the shells were loaded again, and then the preview began.

But this time, they didn't have a chance to fire. The federal mechs that had rushed to them swung the mecha swords made of tungsten steel and gold in their hands, and the barrels were cut off in an instant.

In this case, if you fire a cannon, the chance of exploding the chamber is extremely high.

They didn't have time to think about whether they would explode, because the federal mechs rushing past them had already run over their bodies like a speeding dump truck.

A mobile turret lost its combat effectiveness, and the Xinghe team, which was charging, encountered a new interception.

Tanks, armored vehicles, mobile turrets, and some portable anti-mech missile launchers for individual soldiers, etc.

When the Xinghe team rushed to the last kilometer, the ground troops of the No. 2 Empire, which had been half disabled, went completely crazy.

They no longer worry about accidentally injuring their own apes, and constantly use various weapons to stop the Xinghe team's charge.

The empire does not lack orangutans who are not afraid of death, because 99% of the empire's soldiers are civilians or slaves.

They will be afraid because of the strength of the federal mech fighters, and they will also fight desperately because they are deeply trapped.

If they can get the military exploits, they will become nobles, they will have their own fiefdoms, and their descendants will be able to receive better education and have the opportunity to serve in various precious occupations of the imperial government.

Perhaps, there is no need to participate in such a war again.

There are strong imperial orangutan soldiers who alone carry the heavy machine guns that humans need to be erected on the ground to complete the firing.

The specially-made armor-piercing projectiles chased the running Xinghe team and began to shoot at a rate of 500 rounds per minute.

On the way, a large number of imperial soldiers were accidentally injured and died on the spot, and they didn't even need to be rescued.

There is also the Imperial Orangutan, who completely gave up using weapons similar to the Federation's close-in artillery to intercept the Federation's long-range firepower from the sky.

Their target has also become the Galaxy Squad that is constantly charging.

Compared with armor-piercing projectiles, the ammunition used by these close-in defense guns is more powerful and has a very fast rate of fire.

No matter how mobile the Xinghe team is, it is impossible for them to completely evade when they are rushing in the enemy's position.

Fortunately, the mechas they were driving were all Zhanshan class.

It is not a continuous long-term hit, and their mechs will not be damaged that can affect their ability to move.

Ji Xinghe, the only mech whose overall performance is weaker than his teammates, has the strongest mecha driving ability in the team.

While maintaining his formation, he avoided a lot of damage.

The crazy imperial soldiers have indeed caused a lot of trouble to the Galaxy team. If these troubles continue, they will become a real crisis.

The support of 400 imperial mechas is coming soon, and the reinforcements of the No. 1 and No. 3 imperial ground troops are all mecha corps composed of 200 mechas as the main force.

Under the interference of the federal firepower, their support speed has been much, much slower than the normal running speed.

But the distance between them and the ground troops of the No. 2 Empire is not too far.

The No. 2 Empire Ground Troop, whose formation was five kilometers long, had already been half disabled. The four hundred Imperial Mechs that came to support them chose to ignore their heads and rushed directly to the location of the Xinghe Squad.

They have only one goal, and that is to keep the Galaxy Squad.

The fire support from the Federation did not damage the 400 imperial mechas, and they were in very good condition.

Compared with the Xinghe team, which went all out to kill the four-kilometer army formation, it can be said that they are waiting for work at leisure.

The absolute advantage in numbers is enough to smooth out the performance gap between the two mechs.

Even if there is Ji Xinghe in the Xinghe team, if they are entangled by these four hundred imperial mechs, then only Ji Xinghe can escape back in the end.

It has nothing to do with Ji Xinghe's strength, it's just because everyone in the Xinghe team will use their lives to help Ji Xinghe stop the pursuers.

Or gain.

But what's the point?

"withdraw."

Ji Xinghe decisively issued an order. A miracle he wanted to give to the Federation was given up by himself.

There is always a shortage of manpower.

After killing four kilometers, he couldn't lead the Xinghe team to kill the last kilometer, because this kilometer was the craziest kilometer on this battlefield, and it was also the one with the best preparations.

If, I am driving a general armor today.

If Qin Tong, Harris, the blind man, the lame man, and Su Chuanyun's ace fighter exclusive mechas are in place.

If Jackson and Han Li are by my side.

If what happened to Ji Xinghe was all his regret, he regretted that he could not create a miracle that shocked the entire Federation.

But what he ignored was that what he had done in the No. 5 base theater was enough for the entire Federation to call it a miracle.

Because it doesn't matter.

What he really wanted was—celebration.

Not for other stars, but for real victory.

When Ji Xinghe's order was issued, the Xinghe team went directly out of the imperial formation from the right side of their charge route.

The field of vision instantly became empty.

But the crisis did not end there. When they completely broke away from the imperial army formation, the crippled imperial troops still had the ability to attack them with artillery fire, which was more courageous than the previous crazy state.

The 200 imperial mechas that were originally on the right side changed with their movements, and the pursuit officially began.

The two hundred imperial mechas on the other side ignored their compatriots, stepped on the dead or alive imperial soldiers, and directly passed through the four kilometers of imperial army array that was killed by the Xinghe team.

Also joined the pursuit battle.

"General, we are ready to start scrubbing."

In the space battleship Sanshuiyuan, someone reminded with an excited tone.

But Tu Yuan didn't order them to wash the ground, because Ji Xinghe didn't make this request, which means that even Ji Xinghe couldn't use the "earthquake" caused by the ground washing, 'Dust Storm', to kill through the four hundred imperial mechs chasing them.

The Star River team is indeed stronger than last time, but their average state is not as good as in the last federal cleanup.

Ji Xinghe didn't have time to repair the mecha damaged in the charge.

Moreover, they only had six Zhanshan class and four super mech fighters, but the empire had two hundred more mechas.

A stronger Xinghe team needs to face a bigger gap between the enemy and ourselves.

run, run. run.

The Xinghe team, who fled at full speed, seemed to have completed all the combat objectives this time.

Don't look back.

This was the most reasonable and normal scene, and it was a complete victory worthy of everyone's cheers.

But for some reason, seeing the Xinghe team being pursued by four hundred imperial mechas, many people felt an expectation in their hearts.

They fantasized that the Galaxy team would turn around and kill through four hundred imperial mechs.

People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and it has always been like this.

Tu Yuan noticed this, and sighed in his heart before making a sound.

"Report the results."

"yes."

The statistical work of the battle results has been done all the time, and when Tu Yuan needed it, it was reported/notified as soon as possible.

"The Xinghe team destroyed one hundred and two imperial mechas, and our firepower attack destroyed thirty-nine imperial mechas."

15 billion firepower attacks, but the results obtained sounded inferior to the Star River Squad.

This is actually quite normal. After all, the effect of fire attack on destroying the mech itself is very low. If it is not for the containment of the Galaxy Squad and the containment of the Imperial forces, 15 billion ammunition will be dropped, and thirty-nine Imperial mechs may even be hit. Armor cannot be broken.

Furthermore, the hardware cost of Galaxy Squad is really high.

In addition to Xingyue's eleventh generation core engine of the Federation, the cost of the airframe alone exceeds 80 million. Such a high cost does not include its overclocking mode, and its performance parameters are only at the level of the custom-modified version of the sixteenth-generation standard mecha that Ji Xinghe drove before.

The performance parameters are equivalent to the Zhan Shan of the Marquis-level mecha of the Empire, and all of them use the twelfth generation core engine of the Federation.

Ji Xinghe couldn't get this stuff even if he was rich and meritorious.

Only counting the manufacturing cost, not counting the cost premium of scarce resources, the construction cost of Zhanshan needs one billion.

He is already very close to Ji Xinghe's General A.

However, the tungsten steel alloy used in the main body of the general armor was seized by Ji Xinghe himself, and then reforged by sunken wood, and the tungsten steel alloy has no specific price in the Federation, so the cost is actually a bit difficult to calculate.

Calculated at a unit price of one billion yuan, the price of fifteen Zhanshan is exactly the firepower quota that Tu Yuan invested in this command operation.

15 billion.

If it is to manufacture standard mechas, at an average cost of 50 million, 300 can be manufactured.

Is the charge effect of three hundred standard mechs really worse than that of the Xinghe team?

Maybe stronger.

But it is indisputable that if 300 Federation mechas were to implement the Galaxy Squad's combat plan today, at least more than 100 mechas would be lost if they wanted to achieve the current results.

And it is unlikely to escape the pursuit of the Imperial Mecha.

"Confirmed that more than 80,000 imperial troops have been killed, and the imperial tanks have been destroyed..."

The debriefing/briefing of the results continues.

Discussions about spending a huge amount of resources to build the Galaxy Squad and whether the results complement each other have already begun in many places.

They all received the result notification from the No. 5 base theater.

As for the result, it can only be said that the benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees wisdom.

The battle in the No. 5 base theater is not over yet. Relying on the superiority of the mecha performance, the Xinghe team has already distanced itself from the 400 imperial mechas that were chasing them, and the distance is getting farther and farther.

The empire arranged 60 mechas in advance to intercept them, but they were useless because of the roundabout running of the Xinghe team. A total of 460 imperial mechas could only pursue in groups, and then watched the Xinghe team run more and more helplessly or fortunately. Far.

But they did not give up the pursuit.

Just like the last time, they were waiting for the mecha energy of the Galaxy team to fall into a state of insufficient energy, or the damage suffered during the previous battle would be enlarged due to the continuous high-speed running of the escape, which in turn affected the normal maneuvering of the mecha.

This time, they will not give Ji Xinghe time to repair the mecha.

"Ji Xinghe, they will not stop chasing this time."

Tu Yuan's voice sounded in the communication channel of the Xinghe team.

"I think they will chase you to find the precise coordinates of Base No. 5 at the cost of annihilating the entire army. Therefore, you must not bring them back to the defensive area of No. 5 Base, even with the weapons of No. 5 Base Configuration, they can be completely wiped out, but the exact coordinates expose the fate..."

The end is this defensive battle, which will inevitably end with the destruction of the fifth base.

This is the biggest disadvantage of playing defensive warfare.

Once the precise coordinates are revealed, the empire's endless mid-range and long-range firepower will launch continuous bombardment.

It is no longer a defensive battle, but money and logistical supplies.

Whoever has more money wins. Whoever has the fastest logistics supply will win the battle.

The empire with the jump gate technology has never been afraid to compete with the federation for conventional firepower. If it weren't for them not having satellites in alien planets, the federation would be directly crushed by the empire in terms of conventional firepower.

"but."

Tu Yuan changed the topic.

"We can call out all the mechas in Base No. 5, 300, plus our fire support, plus your combat effectiveness, we can completely eat the 460 imperial mechas behind you."

"We are working out a detailed combat plan, which will be sent to you later, and now you have to bring..."

Three hundred and sixteen versus four hundred and six, the Federation would never dare to fight such a group of mechas when the average combat power of the mechas was not as good as that of the empire.

But when among the 316 federal mechas, there is the Xinghe team and Ji Xinghe.

Tu Yuan dared to fight, and he firmly believed that he could win.

But Ji Xinghe didn't want to fight, or rather, he didn't want to fight like this.

"Wait a minute, wait for a while before ordering, because I don't want to violate the military order again, I know, this is not good."

Ji Xinghe interrupted Tu Yuan's words, making everyone astonished.

You know that disobeying military orders is not good, so how about interrupting the orders of the supreme commander?

Ji Xinghe's calm voice sounded in the communication channel of the Xinghe team, and in the command center of the space battleship Shenshuiyuan, the fifth base, and the Nantianmen space station.

"Many people have said to me, once the success of the battle is over, so what if you sacrifice as many people as you want to win?"

"In order to make me cold-blooded, Shen Mu and the others made me a general armor. I know, they are reminding me in this way."

"I agreed with the name, but I don't want to be this kind of general."

"I know you will say that I am pedantic, that I have the benevolence of a woman, that I am not worthy of being a soldier or a commander."

"I also know that maybe one day I will personally give the order to fight to the death, and because of my order, many people will fight to the death without retreating."

"For example, Qin Tong, Harris, the blind man, the lame man, Su Chuanyun...even the mechanic Shen Mu, they will fight to the death because of my order, even if the weapons they hold in their hands are just the wrench and screwdriver used by the mechanic .”

"I know, I know all of this."

"But I don't want that day to come up, and I don't think this is the day, so we can't play like this."

"I'm a soldier now, but before I was a soldier, I was a father."

"I don't want to see young people like my son die on the battlefield like my son."

"I don't want to see their parents like I was before."

"Tu Yuan, you should be very clear about what I was like before."

You agreed to bet, I won, and you still call me by my name?

Tu Yuan was a little angry, but when he thought of Ji Xinghe he saw for the first time, he couldn't get angry anymore.

It was an old man who brought the kitchen knife and fruit knife at home, and he did not hesitate to steal the individual starship and wanted to come to another planet for revenge.

If he hadn't had a granddaughter, he would have died on the alien battlefield by now.

A person with a will to die will die no matter how strong he is.

"I know I can't save everyone, and I know this war is bound to kill many people."

Ji Xinghe's tone became firmer.

"But please allow me to do everything I can."

The people who heard Ji Xinghe's voice were extremely quiet, especially those mecha fighters on standby. Among them, the super mech fighters could hear Ji Xinghe's voice because they were in the command center.

In a daze, they seemed to see their father on the blue star.

Their father's voice was as old as Ji Xinghe's. Their father, like Ji Xinghe, was waiting for the children from the expedition to return home.

Their father still has a chance to wait until that day, but Ji Xinghe will never be able to wait, so Ji Xinghe will help them go home and help their parents wait for them to go home.

Another somewhat old voice suddenly sounded.

"Ji Xinghe, what do you think you can do today?"

It is Federal Marshal Lee Anbang.

His voice made Tu Yuan finally angry. He agreed not to point fingers and let me take full command. Why did you come here to make trouble whenever Ji Xinghe made trouble?

Because both of you are old men?

Tu Yuan dared not speak out, because he knew that the decision that was about to happen was something he could not make.

Ji Xinghe replied softly.

"I can take them around, and you can take the chance."

Li Anbang asked: "How long can you carry them around?"

Ji Xinghe groaned for a while, and then spoke with certainty.

"Go to the sunken wood to build a new general armor, I will change the armor and kill them all."
