In the blink of an eye, one of the tigers was cut down by the black heretic's sword. It fell from the sky with black smoke and flames. In front of the black heretic, another tiger raised its weapon and kept shooting at the black heretic. It did not panic when its ally was shot down, showing the superb quality of a veteran.
After its ally was shot down and realized that its attack was ineffective against the black heretic, and it was in the black heretic's straight line of attack, the flying backpack's thruster behind the tiger was instantly destroyed. Without the support of the backpack and the body's thruster, the tiger immediately lost its ability to ascend and fell with gravity. At the same time, the five fingers on its left hand continued to shoot out countless light spots at the black heretic.
After the black heretic got rid of one of the tigers, Xiao Ran, who was sitting in the cockpit, did not even have time to retract his beam saber. He saw the tiger in the middle of the screen slide down in an instant, then quickly disappeared from the screen. Xiao Ran nodded slightly when he saw this. He quite agreed with the tiger's pilot's actions. Even if the level was not high enough, at least the idea was very good.
However, the difference in the performance of the mech, the difference in combat experience, and the fundamental difference in the level of the pilot made the idea of the tiger's pilot protecting himself, avoiding the black heretic's attack, and letting the mech freely fall with gravity to avoid the black heretic's attack became a delusion.
The moment the tiger completely disappeared from Xiao Ran's screen, the black heretic changed its direction and began to dive down diagonally. The tiger was once again framed in the cockpit's screen. Xiao Ran, whose eyes were shining with golden light, glanced at the tiger that was restarting its thruster after landing.
Following Xiao Ran's actions on the screen, the two aiming marks locked onto the two sides of the tiger, one from the front and one from the back. However, they did not directly lock onto the tiger. The two cannons on the shoulders began to move up and down along with Xiao Ran's actions.
After seeing a flash of white light behind the tiger on the screen, the beam cannon on the tiger's shoulder also spewed out a roaring light bullet. After the black heretic inserted the two beam sabers back into their original positions, he didn't even look to see if his attack hit the enemy. The thrusters behind him suddenly lit up and he rushed towards the ground. He then picked up the beam rifle that was hanging on his waist.
It was not until the sound of an explosion was heard that Xiao Ran drove the Body to turn around quickly against the huge G-force. In such a situation, even Xiao Ran could feel his body being pulled. However, with Xiao Ran's physique, he only frowned a little. His hand movements did not change in the slightest because of the rapid turn.
"Quickly lock on!" Following this thought, Xiao Ran's eyes once again burst out with an even brighter luster. The red boxes on the screen began to flash rapidly, locking onto Guyon's aerial MS. In the next second, the black heretic's firepower was fully unleashed. Like a turret, it launched a variety of attacks that flew towards the MS from the bottom.
After a wave of attacks, the path in the sky was filled with fireballs from missiles exploding, sparks from Grimm's machine gun fire serpents hitting the MS, melted traces left behind by the laser beams, and also explosions accompanied by tearing. These explosions were not only from Gu Wenjun, but also from the Federation Army's transport aircraft and MS.
"Phew." After doing all this, Xiao Ran exhaled slightly. The number of Gu Wenjun MS in the sky was not many to begin with. It was only to cooperate with the anti-aircraft fire on the ground to intercept the Earth Army's transport aircraft and cause some damage. After this wave of attacks by Xiao Ran, the two tigers that were obviously the leaders had been shot down. After a round of cannon fire, the remaining number of Guyon MS that could fight became even fewer. They could no longer pose a threat to the huge number of transport aircraft of the Federation Army. Moreover, all the MS that jumped out of the transport aircraft, even if they listened to Xiao Ran's order and quickly landed carefully, did not forget to fire a magazine of bullets in that direction.
In terms of the weapon configuration of this mechanical mixed brigade, not all MS actually used beam rifles, although beam rifles were indeed among the standard weapons. However, in fact, in most battles, no one would use beam rifles. Instead, they chose to use machine guns or rocket launchers like Guyon's side.
This also had quite a lot to do with the supplies of their team. After all, they were at the front line of the dense forest, and sometimes they would wander in the desert for a few days and nights. With the difficulty of supplies, the energy was naturally the most important thing. In their operations, the MS's energy was not only for the MS's use. Sometimes, the energy consumption of the camp would be replenished by the command vehicle. They all relied on the Mi nuclear furnace, which was not considered too high-energy in this era. If they used beam guns that consumed more energy, the energy would be under the dangerous limit when the supply could not keep up.
However, if they used live ammunition, there would not be such a worry. Every Mech had its own huge backpack behind it. The backpack was empty, just like a newspaper, but it was filled with all kinds of supplementary supplies. The supplies of a small team were enough for them to carry out a complete operation.
After launching a wave of attacks on Guyon's MS in the air, Xiao Ran once again controlled his Mech to dive toward Guyon's air defense position on the ground. The golden light in Xiao Ran's eyes began to flow with his movements. The shields on the shoulders of the Black Heretic blocked the front of the Mech as it dived down. The Mech was basically rushing toward the muzzles on the ground.
Now, the Federation's losses in the air were unavoidable. Even if half of the transport aircraft were shot down by Guyon's side in this air defense battle, it would not have anything to do with Xiao Ran. After all, Xiao Ran was not in charge of intelligence. Moreover, a military base as important as Guyon's did not even have this little bit of information. No one could blame Xiao Ran even if they wanted to.
However, Xiao Ran was not a person who liked to shirk responsibility. Even if he knew that this surprise attack had nothing to do with him, Xiao Ran could still do something that could be done. For example, suppressing or destroying Guyon's air defense position as soon as possible so that the Federation's transport aircraft and MS could suffer less losses.
Speaking of which, the ones who suffered the greatest loss were still the transport planes in the lead of the federal army. At least seven out of ten transport planes were either blown up or shot down. Naturally, the situation would be better as time went by. With the reminder from the 'suicide squad' in front, the transport planes at the back basically began the procedure of dropping the MS in advance and turned around to leave as soon as possible.
Xiao Ran's transport aircraft happened to be in the middle. Otherwise, although it could withstand some attacks, Xiao Ran and the others could get close to it during this time. However, the transport aircraft should not be able to escape. Even the MS that was released would definitely suffer some losses.
The black heresy quickly advanced toward the turrets. The flames on its thrusters were like a meteor trail, and the direction of its movement was also very fast. Under the constantly flashing sky, it was so eye-catching that many of Guyon's air defense position's cannons turned their muzzles to aim at the Black Heretic.
In the face of the fire serpent shells flying from the ground, Xiao Ran just slightly moved the control stick on both sides. He did not even loosen his feet, controlling the Black Heretic to nimbly shuttle through the gaps of the barrage. When it came to the barrage, the truly terrifying barrage was still in the Ultra Space-Time Fortress. That was a real fleet battle, unlike the Gundam world where most fleet battles were a joke. Once the MS broke through, most of the barrage would end up dead.
The barrage in the Ultra Space-Time Fortress was like a hedgehog that could not find a place to attack. However, Xiao Ran could even handle that kind of barrage, so the anti-air firepower of Gu Wenjun's ground was not worth mentioning at all to Xiao Ran.
Shuttling through the gaps, the Black Heretic locked onto the cannons on the ground. Under Xiao Ran's control, the Black Heretic spun around the fire serpents fired by the cannons. It was like dancing on the edge of a blade. The dance was so beautiful that it was shocking. The Black Heretic's movements made Gu Wenjun on the ground break out in cold sweat. Many people had an incredulous look on their faces and began to scream in surprise. Only a few people gritted their teeth and continued to attack the Black Heretic.
Although Xiao Ran's movements were very difficult to capture, there would always be a few shells that would hit the Black Heretic head-on. In the face of ground fire, the two shields that were more powerful than the weapons of the MS could only block a few shells at most before they were declared useless. In the final stretch of the distance, the Black Heretic's The Black Heretic also took at least a few shells head-on. The sparks that burst out when the shells hit the Black Heretic's body also blinded many people's eyes. An MS was directly hit by the powerful ground fire, but it did not even cause any damage.
However, the Black Heretic's body almost lost its balance. After flipping twice in the air, it regained its balance under Xiao Ran's control. It also aimed all its weapons at the anti-air position hidden in the dense forest on the ground.
In the face of more and more intensive attacks, Xiao Ran's expression did not change at all except for the light in his eyes, which showed his temperament and emotions. He was still so indifferent to the extent of being expressionless. His eyes were moving quickly. Everything displayed on the screen was sent to his brain, and he began to operate and calculate at an extremely high speed. The calculation results were reflected on the Black Heretic's body through the operation of his hands and feet.
"Quick lock."
Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! The sound of locking once again rang in the cockpit as Xiao Ran used his skill. The dense beep turned the dots into lines, and the singularity in the middle could not be heard at all.
After the last beep, the Black Heretic, who was still twisting around and changing its body to avoid the ground attack, suddenly stopped. It raised both of its hands at the same time, and the muzzles on both of its shoulders continuously shot out beams of light. Four fire serpents rushed into the dense forest in pairs, causing countless trees to explode. There were also even more powerful explosions in the trees.
Countless explosions followed the Black Heretic's seemingly never-ending beams of light and fire serpents. Every time a beam of light landed on the ground, and every time a fire serpent swept across the ground, it would inevitably be accompanied by large and small explosions and fireballs. Gradually, the burning flames became bigger and bigger. The dense forest was also set ablaze by Xiao Ran's attack. The fierce fire even dyed the sky with a touch of color.
The anti-air firepower on the ground became sparse, or even non-existent. However, it was only limited to the place where Xiao Ran attacked. The other places still maintained their previous attacks, but because of the appearance of the fire, and because the Black Heretic had broken into a very dangerous position, the attacks from other places began to gradually slow down. Then, with the attacks from the Federation's MS machine fleet that had gradually gathered, the attacks from other places began to slow down.
The Black Heretic hovered above the fire on the ground. After shaking its head, it deactivated its current mutated state. After its eyes returned to normal, Xiao Ran took a few deep breaths before saying, "Gu Wenjun has started to retreat. All troops are forbidden to pursue him. Immediately clean up the battlefield, check the machines, and rescue the injured."
Xiao Ran connected to the management communication channel and looked at the message that popped up on the screen when the channel was connected. "The first squadron is responsible for search and rescue. The second squadron is responsible for putting out the fire. The third squadron is to immediately set up a defensive position to prevent Gu Wenjun's counterattack. Heretic MS team, leave some people to clean up a place. The rest of you spread out to investigate the surrounding situation."
"Roger."
"Roger."
Listening to the reply on the communication channel, Xiao Ran glanced at the burning flames below. He pulled the control stick and began to fly toward the place where the MS machine fleet was gathered. The three squadrons also gathered together and began to act according to Xiao Ran's arrangement. In addition to the first squadron that began to parachute down from the transport aircraft, at least hundreds of people began to search and rescue the injured. The second squadron went directly to the site of the fire, while the third squadron split into two teams and went in different directions to set up a defensive position with the things left behind by Gu Wenjun.
It did not take long for the MS team to clear out a place that could barely be called flat ground. The large transport aircraft could not land, but the helicopters could. In addition to leaving behind a batch of supplies needed for the battle, the helicopters also took away all the rescued injured soldiers. These injured soldiers were not only Federation soldiers but also Gu Wenjun's soldiers.
With Xiao Ran as the commander, killing captives was forbidden. Moreover, almost everyone knew that those who performed well in this battle might be able to enter the heretical MS team. However, for some unknown reason, they would gradually become part of the heretical fleet. This made everyone, except for the MS pilots, pay attention to it and began to perform one after another. (To be continued.)
