Chapter 182 The Final Battle of Crotan (9)

Blood, cold and viscous, fell to the ground "tick tock" along the edges of the building and along the gaps in the armor.

The corpses of some vehicle drivers lay tilted near the hatch, some were charred, some were bleeding profusely, and some were missing half of their bodies. Broken internal organs, bones with tendons attached, black meat with a pungent smell, and even severed hands and stumps are scattered everywhere in the snowfield.

War is always accompanied by cruelty. The battlefield is a giant meat grinder covered with dark brown blood. Life enters from the front and death exits from the back. No matter how noble a knight or revered general becomes a cold and stiff corpse on the ground, There is no more dignity and glory to speak of. On the road full of death and killing, a dead man is actually the same as a dead dog.

Tang Fang looked at the flashing light in the distance, and felt a faint sadness in his heart. Personal strength is so insignificant in a war, so insignificant that an inaccurate stray bullet or a piece of broken steel is enough to kill you.

The number of casualties of the rebel army is close to 4,000, and the government army has reached a terrifying 30,000. Although the casualty ratio of the two sides is close to 1:10, the situation of the rebel army is already precarious in the face of the huge personnel base of the government army. Sorry for wasting it like this.

The good news is that the house leak happened to be raining overnight, and a Viking fighter plane fighting with the government military fleet suddenly sent back a picture.

A weird thing appeared in the sky near the coastline at some point. Oh, no, seriously, that thing is more like a spaceship, a spaceship comparable to a space carrier.

Its upper part is a diamond-shaped hull, its waist is a ring-shaped structure, and its lower section has a total of 32 propellers, large and small. It can climb up quickly like a vertical take-off and landing fighter.

Of course, the huge hull of more than 700 meters is not the key, the key is during the flight. It is also slowly changing shape, the pyramid structure on the upper half of the diamond-shaped hull unfolds like a flower bud, forming an air-based platform. Hundreds of aerospace fighters are lined up on two wings, and the upper and lower edges of the surrounding triangular "petals" are rows of electromagnetic railguns ranging from one to another. There are as many as 120 gates.

These are secondary guns. The main gun is a super plasma cannon in the center of the platform, and its caliber is a circle larger than the two guns in the missile base.

In addition, the lower half of the diamond-shaped hull, and even the upper section of the power ring, also protrude from a frame of double-linked projectile turrets. If you add various missile launch systems with uneven distribution, the total number exceeds 200 .

Aerospace fighters, more than 300 secondary guns, plus a big killer like a plasma cannon. This... this is no ordinary battleship. It is clearly a mobile military fortress. What's more terrible is that this thing is not one, but two!

"'Skyd Platney Project'? Sun Frey's treasure ship? I should have thought of it.

"

Tang Fang suddenly recalled the hidden underground facility in the north of the Antarctic Air Force Base. No wonder there was nothing there when he went there. It turned out that the military was transferred to the North Pole to participate in the battle.

Think about the big tank that stores the zero element. He couldn't help being a little shocked, Kane? Rudolph is really willing to spend the cost, the anti-gravity engine driven by zero elements, this is simply a waste of money!

As we all know, the warp speed engine is a product of Epsilon technology, although with human imitation technology, the warp speed level can only reach a pitiful 7. It is far from the 9.9999 limit value of the Ipsilon cutting-edge spacecraft, and from transmission and filtration, to catalytic energy release, to energy utilization, the complete set of equipment occupies nearly one-third of the space of the ship. However, it has an advantage. The utilization rate of zero elements is very high, and there is almost no waste of resources.

The anti-gravity engine, which is completely developed from human technology, is small in size, but it consumes a lot of energy. Generally, the anti-gravity engine driven by nuclear energy can only support some special types of destroyers and cruiser-level space battleships to break into the atmosphere to fight. No matter how large the volume is, it is obviously beyond its capabilities due to many factors such as the structure of the ship, energy distribution, system balance, and complex atmospheric environment.

Later, some scientists thought of replacing nuclear energy with a scarce resource like zero elements. Its terrifying output capability must be able to support large ships and even aircraft carriers to fight in the planet's gravity environment.

The idea is very full, but the reality is very skinny. The anti-gravity engine has undergone many technological improvements, and finally it can adapt to the zero source element. However, in terms of energy utilization, it has always remained at an extremely low level, causing great waste of resources.

It has been demonstrated that this is due to the difference between the Ipsilon technology tree and the human technology tree. Due to the huge gap in civilization, it is impossible to solve this problem with the current level of science and technology. In the end, the zero element-driven anti-gravity engine became a tasteless product with high investment and low return, and related research and development projects were also suspended and put on hold.

Tang Fang never expected to see this thing here and now, and it was deployed on a giant battleship more than 700 meters long and wide. Oh no, it's Battle Fortress!

I am afraid that most of the internal space and energy of this aircraft carrier are used to supply weapon systems. The energy consumption of the 120 electromagnetic rail guns and central plasma cannon alone is not comparable to that of one or two ordinary space aircraft carriers. Plus 4 sets of anti-gravity engines and various auxiliary combat units. If it is in a combat state, the consumption of zero elements per unit time will be an extremely terrifying value.

The money burned would definitely be tens of millions per hour.

Why did Kane Rudolph build two such expensive things? Guard against the Garcia Rebels? Obviously impossible, I'm afraid it was a super weapon left by the old man for Aldrich to contain Amsden Adams, or to defend against the possible Sulu Imperial Army.

Once this thing flies into the sky and enters the planetary orbit of Crotan, there is no doubt that it will become a space fortress. There are two such "Skyd Platney" aircraft carriers, which cooperate with the missile base on the ground, and All kinds of air and space combat units, Amsden Adams' cruiser fleet is a bunch of scum. Even if Sulu and Mengya go to war, facing the enemy's fleet, it can delay for a long time, buying time for the empire to gather its troops.

Sure enough, none of these hot and powerful people in the imperial political arena were easy to deal with.

However, Kane Rudolph never expected that Ramsden did not rebel, and the Sulu Empire fleet did not attack. Aldridge had no choice but to use them on the rebels.

Submarine aircraft carrier, aircraft carrier, space carrier, star orbit fortress... Don't look at this thing as a big money burner, but its combat effectiveness is not good. The two and a half legions that stormed around the base together are not enough for the two One-twelfth of the attack power of the Kidd Platney" aircraft carrier.

No wonder the governor dared to hastily launch a general attack knowing that the mysterious army that had stirred up the Appalus military industrial base and the Antarctic air force base had appeared in the rebel camp. With the big killer in hand and the cooperation of the ground troops, even if the gods came down to earth, they couldn't save Marion's fate.

Based on the information sent back by the Viking fighter jets, it is estimated that in half an hour, the missile base will enter the firing range of the two "Skyd Platney" aircraft carriers, facing 120 electromagnetic rail guns and plasma main guns. , The rain of projectiles poured down, and the defense system of the missile base was bound to collapse instantly.

The 200,000 armored corps plus sea support have already made the rebel army overwhelmed. If you add these two "Skyd Platney" aircraft carriers, you can know the result with your ass.

If he wanted to leave with all his heart, he could ensure that Marion, Virginia and other high-level officials would escape from the encirclement of the government forces, but what about those soldiers? For a future with no future in sight, an oath, an unattainable dream, what should we do with the soldiers who are fighting bloody battles and throwing their heads and blood? abandon them? What is the difference with the imperial nobles?

Abandoning his companions and running for his own life, I believe that Marion will not do it, Grant will not do it, and Claire will not do it either. As a friend, if you have the ability to help them but look left and right, and don’t do it because of one or another excuse, how can you face the torture of your conscience afterwards? Even a few friends can’t save them. In my heart, talk about overthrowing the rule of Kirkcraft I.

Now that you have made a decision, you have to grit your teeth and stick to it. Even if your head is broken and your bones are broken, you will never give up lightly. For a man to stand in the world, he would rather be criticized by thousands of men than be a coward.

"Aros, are you afraid?"

"Pfft." Aros didn't speak, but just spit out the cigar in his mouth, and drew a skull pattern on the mud-covered shoulder armor with his hands.

"Grant, hold your ground, tell Marion and all the brothers in the rebel army, no matter what strange things you see next, don't be surprised, don't be afraid."

"Huh?" When Grant heard the voice and looked back, several black shadows whizzed past in the sky, and Aros squatted on a Viking fighter, flying towards the south quickly like a sky knight. .

Behind him was a multi-eyed monster nearly 40 meters in size. Tang Fang stood on it with his hands behind his back. Not far away, Hao Sen was surrounded by a balloon-like monster, like swinging on a swing. Usually sails southwards quickly.

At the same time, lights and shadows flickered in the buffer zone in front of the forward position. An ugly monster with fangs and claws, a head and half a man tall, and wings pierced in its ribs jumped out, like a swarm of rolling insects, and quickly moved towards the government army. Groups of infantry rushed forward.

After that, there was a kind of reptile with a blade on its back and a hard shell that tightly wrapped its body like an armor. As soon as they came to the ground, they moved their four claws, made holes in the snowfield, and quickly got under the ice layer.
