Chapter 610 Dangerous Airborne Operation
In Australia, due to the emergence of the Republic of Zeon, the Zeon army occupying Australia split into two factions. One faction is the staunch supporters of the Zabi family, standing firmly behind the Zabi family and continuing the war; the other faction has long been dissatisfied with the behavior of the Zabi family and defected to the faction of the Republic of Zeon.
Together with the Federation Army that is holding on to the last piece of territory in Australia, Australia currently forms a three-way situation.
"The Federation Army has begun to gather troops, what should we do?"
"Set up defenses to stop their attacks."
"What about those traitors?"
"Once we defeat the Federation, we will have plenty of time to deal with them."
"Hmph, those traitors thought they could cling to the Federation's lackeys by joining forces with the traitor Char. What a bunch of cowards. Only victory is the right path for Zeon!"
"That's right! So we must stop the Federation's attacks, buy time, send [Ashtalus] to the universe, send it to the commander-in-chief, and bet on the honor of [Bear Demon Spirit]!"
"zick zeon!"
"zick zeon!"XN
"Beep beep beep..."
"What's going on? The Federation is attacking?"
"How is it possible? This place is 1,000 kilometers away from the Federation's front line. How could they break through our defenses so quickly..."
"It's not the Australian Federation, it's the airborne troops! Prepare for air defense!"
...
One hour ago, the Luna and the White Fortress stayed in Earth orbit, and Yang Hui arranged the tasks of the 12th Independent Technical Force in the combat conference room.
"For this landing operation, we will be divided into two teams. The 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 7th and 8th teams will take the White Fortress and land in the North American war zone, join the main force of the Federation, and then begin to recover the North American continent; the 5th, 6th, 9th and 10th teams will directly take the airdrop pod to the current coordinates with the 1st team to launch an air strike on the Zeon base and the [Moon Ladder] in eastern Australia."
"Directly airdrop from space!" XN
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. This is a dangerous operation that has never been carried out. Especially the 5th, 6th, 9th and 10th teams who participated in it looked solemn. They airdropped directly from space without the cover of warships. Before landing, they were live targets for the ground anti-aircraft firepower.
If it is a general combat mission, like the White Fortress, the battleship fully loaded with MS breaks through the atmosphere and enters the earth, and then performs the combat mission. With the firepower cover of the battleship, the airdrop success rate of the MS unit will at least double.
But this time, the airdrop was carried out directly from space, which means that the mission target this time is very urgent.
Then, Yang Hui told them why they had to carry out such a dangerous combat mission.
"According to the intelligence intercepted by the Intelligence Department, there is an ace unit in the Australian theater, [Bear Demon Spirit], a secret unit under Kycilia Zabi. It is not only composed of carefully selected ace players, but also an intelligence unit."
"Intelligence unit?" Everyone was stunned.
"Yes, just like us, it is a multifunctional combat unit with both combat and intelligence functions. At the California base, Zeon's conscientious scientists intended to destroy a technology, but were stopped and seized by [Bear Demon Spirit], and this technology... is a biological weapon."
"Biochemical weapon!" XN
Everyone was surprised, and then their expressions became very ugly. Among NBC weapons, the most terrifying ones have never been destructive weapons such as nuclear bombs that can create doomsday scenes, but biological weapons that kill people invisibly, and are also the most despicable and despicable weapons.
"Yes, biological weapons. According to intelligence, the [Bear Demon Spirit] troops have developed a biological environmental weapon called [Ashtalos], which is harmless to the human body and will parasitize on plants to promote the growth of the host. Originally, [Ashtalos] was not a weapon, but a plant parasite that was accidentally born when studying how to improve the agricultural productivity of the deadly satellite in the universe.
Under genetic modification, this plant parasite that has the ability to develop in harsh environments can not only be used to improve the agricultural productivity of the colony satellite, but also should be helpful in preventing the desertification of the barren earth.
However, any invention has both good and bad sides. The nature of being able to develop in the desert also means that [Ashtalos] can also develop in other environments and will cover all the forest areas on the earth.
When the forests on the earth are destroyed, [Ashtalos] will not be able to survive without a host. Can you imagine the result?"
"Gurgle~"XN
Everyone swallowed hard, and cold sweat dripped from their foreheads.
The forest environment was completely destroyed, and [Ashtalos] also lost its host. In the end, only the exhausted [Ashtalos] will quickly die in time, and then... the environment of the earth will be completely destroyed, and the earth will no longer be a planet suitable for human survival.
"Kycilia Zabi is dead, but Gillian Zabi is still alive. Once this weapon falls into Gillian Zabi's hands, the earth will face another crisis of destruction. So our mission is to eliminate [Ashtalos] and [Bear Demon Spirit] while they are still in Australia, including all research materials and all people of [Bear Demon Spirit]. No one will be left alive."
"Understood!" XN
After getting such important information, everyone did not care whether the mission was dangerous. They only had one idea now, that is, they must complete this mission perfectly. Once they failed, no one could afford the consequences.
"Brad, the commander in charge of the North American theater is Major General Gao Yun. He will provide you with all aspects of support, but you do not need to obey anyone's orders. You are fully responsible for combat missions and tactical command."
"Yes, Colonel."
"Looking forward to the results of your battle, George, Travis, Aslan, Gai will stay, and the others will disperse."
"Understood!" XN
The others dispersed, and the four remaining people listened intently to what Yang Hui said next.
"Airborne operations are divided into two stages. Travis, Aslan, you are equipped with air combat backpacks as the first batch of airborne troops. My requirement is to seize air superiority within 5 minutes and clear the landing area." Yang Hui opened the combat map and assigned tasks to several people.
"Understood." X2
"The 5th, 10th and 1st teams are equipped with special backpacks for marine warfare. As the second batch of airborne troops, they are five minutes apart from the 6th and 9th teams. George, the mission of the 5th team is to destroy all HLVs as soon as possible. , Gai’s team is responsible for providing cover for you.”
"learn!"
"Travis, Aslan, everyone completed the airborne landing and began to destroy the air forces of the Principality of Zeon. George, Gai, after completing the mission, dispersed and destroyed the ground forces. This time I want not to leave a single living person in this base. "
"Understood." X4
"The meeting is over, let's get ready."
After the combat meeting ended, Yang Hui did not stay in the combat meeting room, but followed them to the lively Gnaku.
"You guys, the mission is here, the 1st, 5th, and 10th squads have special land combat backpacks, and the 6th and 9th squads have air combat backpacks!"
"What about the situation in the airborne pod? Check again!"
"Unit No. 13 has been refitted. Lieutenant Baninger, please debug the system."
"Where is the equipment for Unit 21? Bring it over quickly!"
"Here we go, transport it quickly, we have to take care of the next one!"
"Have you used up the magnetic laminating equipment? Laminating can be done here!"
"Idiot! Stop taking over the pipeline! Do you want to kill one of your own people!?"
"The newcomers will stay here, don't waste our time!"
With the growth of the 12th Independent Technical Force, it is natural that the expansion cannot only be the MS troops responsible for combat. The maintenance squad, fleet, logistics department, and scientific research department must also increase their manpower.
No, none of the newcomers in the preparation class had ever experienced such a tight homework time. They were confused for a moment and were thrown aside by the old people. At first, they were not convinced, thinking that they were bullying them, but when they saw the old people They completed the work they frequently made mistakes in less than half the time, and immediately chose to shut up and stand back obediently as students observing and learning.
Yang Hui got on the No. 1 aircraft that had been replaced with equipment and began to check the condition of the aircraft body.
"Colonel, do you have any questions?" the squad leader asked.
"No problem, the whole system is normal."
"Okay, good luck in the military, Colonel."
"Okay, Unit 1, attack."
The prepared airframes walked onto the ejection deck and left the Luna. They followed the instructions to their respective drop bays. Each drop bay carried three airframes. When full, the drop bays were closed. The dark environment not only failed to make them feel nervous, Instead, he closed his eyes calmly and enjoyed the last rest.
All the airborne pods were full, and Bucky Lulu's voice sounded on the channel: "All aircraft have been contained, and preparations for airborne operations are complete. There are still three minutes until the first batch of airborne landings. Please prepare the 6th and 9th teams... 3 , 2, 1, airborne warehouse release, airborne begins!”
As the order was given, the airborne pods hanging on the brackets detached one after another, and the nozzles on the tops of the six airborne pods were ignited, and they quickly fell towards the earth.
"...Please prepare teams 1, 5, and 10... 3, 2, 1, drop the airborne pod, and the airborne begins!"
…
Time returns to the present, and six red-burned airborne pods broke through the atmosphere and entered the earth's sky.
"Pneumatic control...starts...Falcon 1 notifies all aircraft, checks ammunition loading, and tests communications."
"Falcon 2..."
"Falcon 3 is good..."
"Falcon 4..."
…
"The communication of the whole aircraft is normal. The second outer armor is peeled off, breaks through the troposphere, decelerates to Mach 0.9, stops cooling, and has a good attitude. Get on, clear the way for the colonel and the others!"
"Understood!" XN
The final armor was peeled off, the drop pod was opened, and the moment it saw the sun, the Heretic Gundam's eyes lit up one after another, the wings folded on its back unfolded, and the fallen bird turned into a soaring eagle.
