One Thousand Eight Hundred and Fifteen, Let's Go

Qi Jingwen immediately realized that the situation was not good and immediately asked for help from the Youzhou.

He was a bit confused as to why the enemy launched an attack at this time. Could it be that they also wanted to take advantage of the coming storm?

The fleet was far north of Duluo Island. After receiving the request, it immediately locked the target and launched a batch of long-range anti-aircraft missiles at the insect swarm in the dark clouds.

Dark clouds can cover insect swarms, and they can also cover missiles. Without light insect interception, this wave of missiles will definitely kill a lot of insects.

At the same time as the missile was launched, the Youzhou turned its bow, the engine ran at full power, and moved at full speed against the sea breeze from the southeast at a top speed of thirty knots per hour.

The heavy UAV on the flight deck of the Youzhou was quickly put into the take-off position by the ground crew. The tow bar of the electromagnetic catapult hooked the nose landing gear. Then the personnel evacuated. The two ground crew half-knelt on the right side of the UAV and stretched out their arms at the same time. He raised his right arm and pointed it into a sword, pointing to the front of the deck!

The electromagnetic catapult was activated instantly, dragging the eighteen-ton drone out of the flight deck. When the drone was about to leave the deck, it sank slightly, but immediately raised its nose and quickly climbed upwards.

The first drone had just taken off, and the second drone was also ejected by another electromagnetic catapult, followed by the third and fourth!

Four electromagnetic catapults worked at the same time, and the drones took off one after another. The interval between the liftoff of the two drones was only twelve seconds.

In just over two minutes, all twelve drones in the first echelon took off. After a simple formation, all the drones jumped into the clouds and flew to the battlefield with the help of the cover of the clouds.

At this time, the second echelon has already started ejecting, and it won't take long for them all to take off!

Not only did the two echelons on the deck quickly take off, but the drones in the hangar were also continuously sent to the deck by elevators, and the third and fourth echelons took off one after another.

In order to compete for air supremacy, humans and aliens have all racked their brains. Manned fighter jets are constantly ambushed by light bugs, and the air forces of various countries have suffered heavy losses.

For this reason, the air forces of various countries have to cease operations, and even the US Air Force is no exception.

But how can the air forces of various countries be willing to do so? In order to regain the sky, various countries tried their best, and finally got inspiration from the drone fleet of the space fleet and designed a new heavy-duty remote-controlled drone.

Every drone is controlled by a real pilot. Except that the person is not on the aircraft, everything is the same as flying the aircraft personally.

If we can still use drones,

It is simply impossible for the military to send the Youzhou out.

The flying drone entered the clouds and continued to rise. After a while, it emerged from the clouds and was bathed in the sun again.

Immediately, the drone formation changed from climbing to level flight and flew towards the battlefield at full speed.

When there is cover from clouds, it is the most suitable time for the fleet to dispatch. Even if thin light can penetrate the clouds, can the eyes of light bugs still see the aircraft outside the clouds?

Through the lens on the drone, the pilots on the Youzhou clearly saw a group of black spots flying above the clouds ahead.

Without zooming in on the image, he knew that those black spots were flying insects sent by the enemy... The height of the dark clouds was very low at the moment, and the insects had to fly out of the clouds to avoid the deadly infrasound waves.

If the storm gets one layer closer, the height of the clouds will also rise. By that time, it will be impossible for the bugs to fly out of the clouds.

This is because bugs have limited flying capabilities. They can fly to an altitude of four to five thousand meters, which is their limit. They cannot fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters like an airplane.

The drone took off for a while, but in the footage, a large number of giant insects flew above the convoy, folded their wings and fell back into the clouds.

Seeing this scene, everyone began to worry about their comrades in front. The commander of the first echelon gave an order, and all the fighter planes were at full speed, rushing straight towards the insect swarm while locking the target and launching long-range air-to-air missiles at the insects in the air. .

The heavy UAV has a total of twenty-four mounting points, half of which are long-range and short-range missiles. Twelve aircraft can fire one hundred and forty-four long-range missiles in one salvo.

The incoming missiles alarmed the swarm of insects, but none of them took the initiative to intercept the missiles. Instead, they turned a blind eye and continued to fall into the clouds at their original pace.

The missile flew closer and closer, exploding on its own when it was still one or two hundred meters away from the insect swarm. Countless steel balls exploded instantly, raining down into the insect swarm.

All the missiles on the drone are special models designed to deal with giant insects. Their warheads draw on the principle of anti-infantry directional mines. After explosion, they can produce a large number of steel balls that spread in a fan shape to maximize the impact on the enemies in front... Well, this thing is a dual-purpose model, and it is also good at dealing with ground insect swarms.

Countless steel balls smashed into the insect swarm. I don’t know how many giant bugs were hit for a while, but the bugs in the sky didn’t care at all. Except for the bugs killed by the steel balls, they fell out of control, and the remaining giant bugs still maintained their original rhythm. Rise, level flight, and finally fall.

The first wave of missiles had just exploded, and the first echelon had already rushed to the vicinity of the insect swarm, bringing the insect swarm into the effective range of the short-range missiles.

The twelve drones immediately opened fire, knocking out all the remaining missiles and shooting down another batch of giant insects.

However, there is no cannon on the drone, and when all the missiles are fired, it becomes a toothless tiger. Everyone can only control the aircraft and return home with hatred.

But it doesn't matter, the second echelon will arrive soon. Although the insects killed by one echelon only account for a small number of the insect swarm, the cumulative effect can help relieve some pressure on the friendly forces on the ground.

Although Qi Jingwen couldn't see the desperate battle on the clouds, he could determine the location of the drone group through radar and data links, which was equivalent to indirectly seeing the battle on the clouds.

But he had no time to pay attention to the battle above the clouds. All his attention was focused on the top of his head - countless giant insects were falling in the low clouds, and the twelve vehicles of light protection cannons did not even care about the insects taking off in the distance. All artillery fire was aimed directly above the convoy, constantly killing the giant insects that broke out of the clouds.

A few giant bugs exploded in the air immediately after being hit by lasers, but most giant bugs did not change even if they were killed by lasers, and did not explode until they fell to the ground.

Fortunately, the convoy was always under the cover of the smoke screen and kept moving, so it didn't suffer much damage. Otherwise, even if there were light-proof cannons to stop the insect swarm, the insects would have destroyed the family's wealth long ago.

At this moment, Qi Jingwen couldn't help but sigh that the number of flying light bugs was so huge. If they could emit fine light in the air, all his troops would have been wiped out long ago.

But when I thought about it again, I realized that there was nothing strange about it. The light bug’s transmitter was never on its head, but always on its butt. How could the flying light bug fly backwards and forward with its buttocks facing forward?

When he thought of the wonderful scene of flying light bugs all over the sky, all with their heads turned backwards and their butts forward, he couldn't resist the urge to burst into laughter.
