1695. Battle of the Grand Canyon (2)
The sound of countless aircraft engines in the sky was as deafening as a buzzer that had been magnified countless times. The black mass of aircraft swooped down. And in front of these controlled pilots, was a huge base of a scale that was beyond imagination!
The base was built along the mountain wall of the Grand Canyon. It extended from the bottom of the canyon to the top, extending for at least two or three kilometers. At the top was a very vast airport, loading and unloading area, and storage area. The base buildings also extended all the way into the mountain wall, almost hollowing out the entire mountain!
The robot laborers were extremely powerful. They worked and constructed 24 hours a day without rest. The scale of the Grand Canyon base could be said to be changing significantly every day. Moreover, with such a huge base, Tang Yu did not expect to be able to hide it forever. So, from the very beginning, he was fully prepared for the possibility of being attacked.
After discovering the arrival of the attack fleet, the surface-to-air missiles hidden in the valley were the first to reveal their fangs! Hawker I surface-to-air missiles! These were obtained from the US military after the establishment of the US interim government. There were a total of five sets of missile launchers.
The aircraft above had no intention of hiding themselves at all, nor did they have any tactical maneuvers. The air defense radar immediately locked onto these aircraft. The officer sent from the US Air Force shouted loudly, and the fire control radar immediately locked onto the four largest targets, the four B-52 bombers!
"Fire!" The commander gave the order. A large amount of flames spewed out from behind a Hawker missile, propelling the missile towards the target in the air at high speed! Then, the second and third missiles followed! Each Hawker anti-aircraft missile launcher was equipped with three missiles, which could attack three targets in a short period of time.
Fifteen Hawker anti-air missiles rose into the air, their tails ejecting fierce flames as they flew towards the sky from all directions! The flying formation in the sky did the same. The F-4 and F-104 fighter jets that had just been controlled turned around and blocked the B-52 bombers and C-130A transport planes.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The Hawker missiles accurately hit the target, and seven or eight fighter jets were suddenly blown into balls of fire! The commander on the ground immediately ordered the G-1 robot on standby next to him to transport new missiles over and install them on the launcher. These robots were much stronger than ordinary people, and their movements were extremely precise. Usually, a small crane was needed to load a missile, but these robots could do it directly.
In the air, the series of explosions had completely ignited the flames of war. The attack fleet swooped down, with the 50 A-4 Skyhawks bearing the brunt! These attack aircrafts swooped down like terrifying falcons, the honeycomb rocket launchers mounted under the wings firing a dense barrage of rockets! After a round of diving, the attack plane took the opportunity to drop the aerial bomb.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! A series of explosions exploded along the flight path of the attack aircraft, and the loading and unloading area outside the base was blown up beyond recognition. A large number of goods and containers piled up there flew high into the air under the power of the explosion, and then crashed to the ground. Some of the stationed G-1 robots were also destroyed, their limbs flying everywhere!
At the same time, the base's anti-aircraft firepower also began to fire! The G-1 modified combat robot raised its right arm, and the 12.7 mm heavy machine gun fired wildly into the air. The four 20mm anti-aircraft machine guns and 80mm anti-aircraft cannons hidden on the surrounding mountain walls also opened fire.
The air was suddenly covered by countless bullets. The shells of the large-caliber anti-aircraft cannons exploded in the air, and the debris and flames produced by the explosion created countless death traps in the airspace above the base. After the Hawker surface-to-air missiles were loaded, they immediately began a second round of firing.
The early 1960s was the era when the pattern of aerial combat had just begun to change. The combat at this time was actually very similar to the World War II era. At this time, both surface-to-air missiles and air-to-air missiles were very backward, and air-to-ground missiles had not even appeared yet. Therefore, in the end, aerial combat basically became a dog fight between the fighter jets. The anti-aircraft cannons on the ground would randomly cover the ground, and the attack planes in the sky would bombard the enemy with bombs.
The firing points arranged in the Grand Canyon base were very well hidden, and they were all reinforced with concrete. Not only that, but there were also firing points set up far away from the base. With such fierce firepower, it was hard to believe that this was a 'nuclear physics testing base' of a company!
Although the base's anti-aircraft firepower efficiency was also very low, the bombs carried by 50 A-4 Skyhawk attack planes were of no use against the huge size of the base.
Bang! Sita slammed her fist on the wall of the plane. Her expression was somewhat ferocious as she shouted at Charles Xavier next to her, "Let the B-52 bombers blow them up!! Why do they still have such strong firepower?? "
Charles Xavier's mind moved, and he immediately conveyed the order to the crew of the B-52 bombers. Then he turned his head and said, "The size of this base is beyond our imagination. This bombing should not be able to break the resistance of the base."
Pa! Sita slapped him hard and roared, "Then you better f * cking use it!! Where's your bullshit mind control!? Why does it always go wrong!! "
Charles was indifferent to her beatings and insults, he only calmly said, "There are a lot of interference sources on the ground, I am unable to control these people under the interference."
Sita's expression was ferocious as she said, "Then overload the brain wave amplifier! Overload your ability!! "
"This might cause me harm," Charles calmly said.
"You're just a tool, a tool that's relatively easy to use! Harm is harm, at most we can go back and get Hank McCoy to heal you! Since you are a tool, then you should have the awareness of a tool! Useless tool, then get out of my way!! Now, overload it!! "Sita roared ferociously.
"Understood." Charles said. Next, he pressed a button on the brain wave amplifier, and then turned the knob to the right to the maximum. At this time, his expression began to show signs of pain, but he did not stop. He held onto the energy output handle and began to push it upwards!
The needle of the brain wave frequency on the device began to move towards the dangerous red area. Charles' expression became increasingly distorted, he was enduring unimaginable pain! The mind power emitted from his brain became stronger and stronger, the soldiers and mercenaries on the ground could even hear a series of high-frequency sound waves. This was a sign that the power of the brain waves was strong enough to affect the vibration of the air!
The mercenaries and staff all held their heads and screamed under this terrifying power. They squatted on the ground and held their heads as they struggled, trying to expel the pain from their heads, but it was to no avail.
Even the surrounding brain wave shielding device could not bear the heavy burden under Charles' terrifying mind power. The antenna on the device flickered with electricity and began to emit smoke from the center.
