Chapter 55 The Massacre of the Secret Angel
In the hilly area, Kati Manekin established a temporary command post here.
"Colonel, the Feather Machine was suppressed by the barrage, and the encirclement of the Sword Machine has been completed!"
"PMC sent a message that they found the local transport ship and are besieging it, but the sniper and double-gun machine guards make it difficult to complete the predetermined goal!"
"Let the PMC hold back the sniper and double-gun machine for me. As long as they don't come to make trouble, it will be our victory! Increase the firepower suppression on the Feather Machine, don't save ammunition, entangle it tightly, and order the capture troops to speed up!" Kati Manekin immediately issued an order after hearing the report from his subordinates.
"The first capture team has suffered 73% damage, and it is difficult to maintain the encirclement!"
"The first capture team retreats, and the fourth team is ready to take over their mission."
"The PMC troops sent a request for reinforcements. The MS troops lost 40%, and the Gundam and transport ships began to retreat."
"Don't worry about it. Our target is the Sword Machine. Let them retreat on their own after confirming that the enemy has retreated."
Kati commanded the battle in an orderly manner. Although there were reports of losses, Katie's expression did not fluctuate at all. The current losses were within her expectations. She would not feel sorry even if all the hyenas of PMC died.
As long as the combat goal is achieved, it would be best if all the people of PMC died.
Seeing that the encirclement on the screen was shrinking and was about to completely trap the Angel of Exia, Katie couldn't help but curl up a little.
"It seems that I won, Melin..."
But the next second, her eyes suddenly widened, and she saw in disbelief that a gap was opened in the encirclement on the screen in the blink of an eye, and the Angel of Exia rushed out and broke through the encirclement.
"Bang~!"
Kati slammed the table in front of her hard and cursed: "Report the situation! What are the encirclement troops doing? Why is there a gap?"
"Colonel... Colonel..."
"What's wrong!? Report clearly!"
"It's the Feather Machine... The Feather Machine broke through our fire blockade... and instantly wiped out the first capture team and the fourth reserve team!"
"What!?" Katie's pupils shrank, and she shouted in her heart that it was impossible. She had analyzed all the battle records since the Secret Angel appeared in detail. The fire suppression was completely arranged according to the Secret Angel's limit. It was fine before, why was it suddenly broken?
"Contact the front-line observation post, I want to see the video!"
Two or three seconds later, the impact of the front-line battlefield was broadcast in the command post, but... everyone was shocked.
"How... How is it possible..."
...
The rapidly descending Secret Angel released the shield-type GN-bit that had been on its back, but it did not guard the Secret Angel. Instead, it rushed into the missile group.
"GN mirror reflection system activated."
A layer of light green film covered the shield-type GN-bit. The moment it was completed, all the missiles were fired. Dozens of pink beams penetrated the missiles and hit the shield-type GN-bits in the missile group. A strange thing happened. The attack was not blocked. The shield-type GN-bits were like mirrors, reflecting pink light, reflecting, turning, and interweaving. Just one shot completely eliminated a wave of missile firepower.
On the ground, the disembodied sword-type GN-bits were like ghosts in the dark night, shuttling back and forth in the ruins. When the MS turned around in a hurry, a sharp blade in the shadow would pierce their abdomens.
"Um..." The extremely rational Yang Hui also frowned in pain at this time, and fine sweat continued to seep out.
"No!"
"Monster... Monster!"
"You can't win! Run away!"
"Don't kill me... Don't kill me... Ah~!!"
Wail, beg for mercy, scream, pray...
The endless noise mixed together and poured into Yang Hui's brain, just like putting two high-quality speakers directly in his ears, playing dozens of completely different music at the highest volume at the same time.
Moreover, the intense consumption of mental power made Yang Hui's brain feel uncomfortable as if it was pierced by thousands of steel needles.
"Energy Angel, breakout successful, moving to the designated location."
"Power Angel (Cherubim), evacuated successfully, the transport ship was slightly damaged, but it can maintain normal navigation, and all the crew members on board are safe."
After receiving the report that all the crew members were safe, the GN-bit's movements instantly lost their spirituality and resumed mechanical regular movements. The light in Yang Hui's eyes was retracted again. The moment he exited the Transformer mode, one of Yang Hui's hands left the joystick and pressed his head through the helmet. The painful expression made his whole face twisted together.
"Hmm~ It's really... uncomfortable... It seems that I have to talk to the old man about this matter, but before that..." Yang Hui shook his head, letting his confused brain regain a bit of clarity.
The Secret Angel still stood in the void, but the double guns in his hands shot at the chaotic enemy MS troops one by one. Among them, several [Formula] that fled in panic were directly shot through the cockpit, and both the man and the machine were destroyed.
Not just an encirclement, analyzing the missile's rays, the Secret Angel took back all the GN-bits, used them as auxiliary thrusters, and drove at full speed to the firepower point arranged by AEU. It destroyed them all without much resistance, and then disappeared into the sky with green starlight.
...
"Colonel... the capture troops were all destroyed, and the missile launch base was all destroyed. What should we do?"
"...Immediately eliminate the recovery troops to recover all survivors, destroy all equipment, and evacuate personnel in a dispersed manner. Meet at coordinate Y2." Kati made a prompt decision. The combat plan failed. With such a big commotion, it is impossible for UNION not to notice it. If they don't leave now, none of them can leave.
If they are not caught alive, all the responsibilities can be pushed to PMC, but once someone in the regular army is caught, there is no way to defend themselves.
"Understood!"
"Colonel, the PMC..."
"Their mission is not yet completed, don't worry about them."
"Yes."
After giving the order, Kati did not dare to delay. She quickly backed up the combat records and destroyed the originals, activated the self-destruction program, got on the car and left.
But in the car, Kati stared at the sky with absent-minded eyes.
She knew that Yang Hui was angry. If it was just a rescue, there was no need to destroy the whole army, let alone a long-distance raid on the temporary missile launch base. This was a warning to herself and a lesson.
But... why? Shouldn't we go all out for our bet? Or...
"Are you declaring sovereignty? Maieryin..." Thinking of this, Kati's eyes quickly became firm, "But I won't admit defeat. Don't think I'm a woman who can be manipulated by you at will!"
"Colonel, the superior called."
"Take it."
Kati took out her PAD and connected the communication with the superior.
"Commander."
"Colonel Manekin, how is the operation going?"
"It has failed, and everyone is evacuating."
"What happened? Why did it fail?"
"We underestimated the performance of the Gundam and the ability of the Gundam pilots. I will send the battle records back to the General Staff Headquarters as soon as possible. I am willing to take all the responsibility for the failure of this operation."
"I didn't contact you to hear these things from you! Do you know that for this operation... Forget it, withdraw to your country as soon as possible, and send back the combat data as soon as possible. The punishment for you will be decided after you return home."
"Yes."
After the communication ended, Kati raised a cold arc at the corner of her mouth.
"A bunch of idiots who only know how to show off. I hope you will wake up after reading the data."
