Chapter 815 Battle of Phoenix City (8)
"What should I do?" Carlos thought for a while and said, "Temporarily retreat, wait to merge with the 2014 Mechanized Infantry Brigade, and then regroup and launch a counterattack."
Without receiving the latest order from the command center, he could only do so.
What happened to Carlos is just a small microcosm of the battlefield. Farther away, Thunder Beast led a coalition of fanatics, stalkers, and mechanical sentinels, and smashed the armed vehicle positions of the 1386 and 1365 armored brigades to 70% Tanks, missile vehicles, armored vehicles, power armor... turned into piles of fragmented metal garbage on the ground, spread on the ground blackened by the flames of war, and covered with a thick layer of yellow sand.
The military also tried to deal with them the same way they treated the mechanical units of the human race and the gods, but the results were completely different. The Ultralisks destroyed the modular strata in such a mess that the pits that could paralyze Thor's action power had nothing to do with them.
The combat units began to retreat to the rear, preparing to join the 2014 and 2015 Mechanized Infantry Brigade, the 1375 Armored Brigade, and the Black Beret Ranger Regiment, and then counterattack after stabilizing their positions.
This is the most common practice and the most correct one.
However, Carlos didn't know, the soldiers didn't know, and even the commanders of the 1386 and 1365 armored brigades didn't know.
The swarm of black bees spread into a sea of insects, separating the flying units from the land vehicles. The 4 brigades who came from outside were seriously affected. They couldn't figure out the situation on the frontline battlefield at all. The latest news from the frontline battlefield.
The combat effectiveness of the Black Beret Ranger Regiment is far superior to other brigades. For example, it is equipped with the latest Thunder reconnaissance drones, Gangfeng missile shuttles, Crusaders-level power armor...
These weapons are very advanced and represent the most elite combat force of the Khanos Army, but when the black bees are approaching. When the sky was covered in one piece, most of these advanced weapons became decorations, when mountainous shadows rushed into this world wrapped in black waves. Killing and destruction became the only colors here.
It doesn't matter whether the soldiers are wearing Pilgrim-class power armor or Crusader-class power armor. Once the Thunder Beast stepped on it, it made no difference. It was their only fate to be an iron radish planted in the sand.
Getter tanks weighing dozens of tons, as well as various armored vehicles and chariots facing Ultralisks are like a pile of plastic toys facing frenzied children. They are overturned, trampled, and thrown everywhere.
With a whistling chirp, the bone blade cut off everything that stood in front of it. Then the wreckage was sent flying, turning into specially-made projectiles that fell from the sky, falling into the missile vehicle phalanx behind, and occasionally there was a detonation, igniting dragon-like flames.
It is like a bull rushing into a flock of chickens, trampling on all fours, and will either die or be injured. The soldiers in power armor were even thrown away by the strong wind brought by the Thunder Beast, screaming and blowing sand away, while the armed vehicles were washed away, turning into iron bumps rolling endlessly on the sand.
Thor's firepower is fierce. It's quite enough, but it's not in the same order of magnitude as the Thunder Beast that entered the enemy's formation.
It's too big. The black bee couldn't completely cover its body, and the surrounding armed vehicles released their most powerful weapons one after another, unleashing artillery fire on the Ultralisk, turning them into balls of rapidly expanding dazzling fireballs.
Numerous missiles flew up obliquely from the ground with smoke dragons, the muzzles of the tanks lined up in a row burst into flames, and the bullets splashed from the machine guns were dense like rain lines...
Under the double darkness intertwined with the night and the swarm of bees, such an attack is very dazzling and shocking, but what is even more shocking is that. The behemoth that shook its head and made a deafening sound did not stop at all. Out of the gunpowder smoke at the fastest speed, with wisps of flame. He rushed directly to the front of the tank formation, and with two bone blades swiped left and right, he threw the two Gate tanks into the sky, even before the sea of black bees. After a few breaths, there was a muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
At the feet of the Thunder Beasts on the battlefield, there are golden and interlaced figures, rushing into the phalanx formed by the mechanized infantry at an extremely fast speed, like a ranger, with the dazzling light blade in his hand, cutting through one soldier after another power armor, sending them to the abyss of death.
Under the feet of Ultralisk, the main battle tank is like a simple and inferior toy, and under the sword of Zealot, the power armor is as fragile as a piece of thin white paper. The combination of mechanical sentinels, stasis balls, vetoers, and stalkers, in a more bizarre way, divides the battle formation into blocks, and then uses criss-crossing energy rays to cut apart the armed vehicles and divide the combat soldiers into pieces. kill.
In 2014 and 2015, the air forces of the Mechanized Infantry Brigade, 1875 Armored Brigade, and Black Beret Rangers were not all put into the sky battlefield. Elsa gunships, Hurricane shuttles, and Sea Spirit transport aircraft suitable for ground operations are still in the sky Hovering, but due to the cover of the insect swarm composed of black bees, it cannot pose too much threat to the ground units of the insects and gods. It is not painful and itchy, and it is difficult to break the hard bone plate.
Back then, when facing Thor, the military's armed vehicles bombed repeatedly to damage its structure. Now facing Thunder Beast, which has a harder bone plate, a more flexible body, and stronger mobility and attack power than Thor, Supplemented by the black bee sea in the Zerg classic tactics, and the vigorous fanatics, the 4 new brigades did not become the last straw that overwhelmed the camel as in Archimonde's plan, but became the door-to-door Little fresh meat.
At the same time, the "Ares" ground-based defense system was successfully terminated, and the five Valkyrie bomber squadrons that were dispatched to support the rioting people each sent two scout fighters to join the Corruptors evacuated from the sky battlefield, and joined Phoenix City one after another. Melee in the sky.
Air Force units such as Wyverns, Viking fighters, Exploding Mosquitoes, and Ravens performed extremely well against the fighters belonging to the Aviation Brigade, but under the sniper firepower of Phoenix City's inherent defense facilities, they could not match the huge number of fighters. We can only shrink the front line and move to the rear as much as possible to weaken the anti-aircraft firepower from Phoenix.
The emergence of Corruptors and Scout fighters has greatly relieved the pressure on the small air force. The combination of Griffin fighters, tactical fighters, and Phoenix fighters directly tore a big hole in the blockade formed by the SA-20 Sea Harrier fighters, and scattered The battle formation of the Saints attacking drones.
The heavy-duty laser cannons inside Phoenix City are under the key care of the Consul and laser drill tanks, and cannot accurately kill the Corruptors, those super powerful rail guns. At the beginning of the war, it was repeatedly bombed by Thor Punisher artillery and laser drill tanks, suffered serious damage, and experienced the baptism of psionic storms by high-ranking templars. More than 70% of the large forts on the top floor of the city wall are out of service, and the medium-sized forts on the lower floors, the anti-aircraft guns in the city, and various types of anti-aircraft missiles cannot pose a fatal threat to the Corruptor swarm.
These huge aerial creatures. Under the protection of hordes of king worms and eye worms, they directly ignored those fighters and broke through the sky battlefield.
The arrival of the Phoenix fighters and scout fighters was like a tornado blowing up. Wherever they passed, fireballs fell from the night sky and fell into countless fiery fragments when they landed on the trenches.
The change in the battle situation was really abrupt, and the government army was still in the upper hand just now. In just ten minutes, all three lines collapsed, and the situation took a turn for the worse, turning from an advantage to an absolute disadvantage.
Carlos originally planned to join forces with the 2014 Mechanized Infantry Brigade and concentrate superior firepower to kill the terrifying beast. As a result, they had just merged and hadn't reorganized their formation when black bees swarmed down from the sky, covering most of the brigade's troops.
As a field command unit, the Kuma command vehicle is not only equipped with a powerful information processing system and the most advanced communication facilities, but also integrates the best vehicle-mounted sensors. The appearance of the black bee. It not only paralyzes the communication ability of the command vehicle, but also shields the sensor equipment from monitoring the external environment, making it deaf and blind.
Think of those giant beasts, think of those golden warriors holding light blades. Carlos got it. The combination of Black Hornet and melee units can restrain the ranged units to the greatest extent and give full play to their strength.
Since Howson climbed out of the cockpit of the siege mech and shamelessly danced on the battlefield, the opponent's fighting style has suddenly taken a 360-degree turn, paying more attention to the combination of arms to create a favorable combat environment, rather than like As before, relying on the well-defined firepower. Come and gnaw hard at the tough bone of Phoenix.
Why does the opponent's commander seem to be a different person? So what happened?
Carlos couldn't figure it out, not at all.
He didn't know that the early battle was just an opportunity for Captain Tang to prove their abilities to Howson and Churchill. Naturally, he didn't know that the thick, black, and well-dressed idiot in the middle of the battlefield was not expressing his joy of escaping life with his perverted behavior. And the ridicule of the 1386 and 1365 armored brigades, but paid for the wild words on the special operations transport ship.
He also didn't know that the person commanding the God and Zerg troops and turning the tide of the war in just ten minutes was none other than Captain Tang whom he labeled as "not worthy of his name".
Just when he was feeling confused and puzzled, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and those hill-like behemoths and golden warriors did not enter his area, but separated to the left and right, leaving a distance of about 2 kilometers.
"Why?" Carlos became more puzzled. He looked at the clusters of mechanized infantry and Leite tanks scattered around, and a large number of armed personnel carriers. He couldn't understand why the enemy didn't attack the most densely populated place, but Go after those lone missile vehicles and getter tanks.
"Is it because the heavy weapons are more powerful?"
Soon, what happened on the battlefield answered his doubts.
On the horizon filled with faint smoke and dust, an aircraft with flowing blue and white light appeared in everyone's field of vision, then stopped suddenly, spread its wings, and slowly changed into an umbrella-like structure, scattering a piece of light on the ground, which was particularly bright in the night.
Carlos is no stranger to this scene, and he still remembers that those golden warriors and floating drones were born in this light, driving them away from the injured siege mech, and eventually evolved into the current kind of situation.
He was not as experienced as Archimonde, nor as smart as those staff officers in the military department, but seeing such a scene, he was suddenly blessed, and an idea flashed in his mind.
"Quickly, notify the air defense vehicles and friendly combat units to take it down immediately. That should be something that Tang Fang uses quantum teleportation technology to transmit troops on a large scale."
The correspondent hurriedly informed the nearby friendly forces and the air defense vehicles of the same brigade of this information.
Without the cover of the black bee, the on-board sensor system can operate normally again, missiles soared into the sky, and shot straight at the slowly rotating blue-white aircraft above the northern horizon.
Where the psionic energy matrix spread out, the 3 beams of light changed from weak to strong, from virtual to real, and finally turned into three golden warriors with their feet off the ground, suspended in mid-air. Different from the golden warriors holding light blades in front of them, they wore blue cloaks, and a soft halo radiated from behind them.
Carlos' pupils suddenly constricted, recalling a scene of video data sent by the data link system.
It was the golden-armored men in this kind of costume who used lightning nets to destroy the clusters of armed aircraft gathered above the trenches, and then combined them into huge balls of light four or five stories high, turning the entire Phoenix City into a sea of flames.
At this moment. boom! boom! Boom... The light flashed continuously, and the explosion was like thunder. Those missiles hit the folded prism and exploded into dense fireballs, adding a trace of ripples to the already turbulent sky.
To Carlos' dismay, the folding prism was not damaged by the concentrated fire and was still floating in the sky, but the light wings had been retracted and the flight mode was restored, and the faint blue light on the ground disappeared.
At least it prevented the enemy from continuing to send troops to the frontline battlefield, which is barely good news.
Yes, the frontline battlefield has spread from the pit vertical and horizontal area to the edge of the buffer zone. Although they don't want to admit it, they are indeed retreating under the pressure of the black bees.
Five Elsa gunships rushed over from the side and joined the troops around Carlos, preparing to concentrate their firepower to kill the three golden generals who could activate the Lightning Network, so as not to end up like the predecessors in the trenches.
The high-ranking templar didn't activate the psionic storm, they didn't even move their feet, they were still flying in the air, their bodies were floating up and down, the halo radiating from behind twisted into gently swaying light and shadow like microwaves, although they were moving, But it has its own static beauty.
In fact, there is still a dynamic beauty blooming on the battlefield, and it is behind the high-ranking templar.
After turning over the prism and switching back to the flying posture, lower the body, turn in the air, and cast a ray of light to the ground. It is different from the psionic matrix in the phase mode, but a streamer waterfall, reaching the ground from the sky of hundreds of meters. (To be continued.)
