Chapter 714 Hunter Squad
713, Hunter Squad
The Hunter-class battlecruiser commanded by Shen Jon opened fire directly on the planet after entering the range.
Orbital bombing!
Irene’s planet is not equipped with an expensive planetary shield. It was blasted by several powerful turbo lasers from the Jaeger class. Huge mushroom clouds were set off on the surface of the planet. The terrifying explosion power spread everywhere. Mines and energy centers were destroyed.
The Vulture robot fighters took off like crazy to block the attack, but the V-19 Riptide light fighter here quickly suppressed their counterattack momentum, and hundreds of Vulture fighter planes were destroyed.
The orbital cannon on the surface of the planet Erin was finally locked by the Jaeger-class battlecruiser after continuous firing. After several accurate bombardments, the cannon was also blown into a pile. ruins.
Then the Jaeger-class battlecruiser rushed directly into the planet's atmosphere. Under the cover of fighter jets, the LAAT/I assault transport boats took off one after another. After a violent bombardment of ground targets, they began to land full of clone soldiers. .
After entering the atmosphere, the ground firepower of Erin Planet became more and more crazy. Basically all the weapons that could fire were firing in the air. All the spacecraft and fighter jets that could take off took off, launching a comprehensive attack on the battleship. attack.
This put the Jaeger-class battlecruiser under tremendous pressure. After putting down the 4,000-man Marine Corps, the battleship began to increase its altitude and provide fire support at an altitude of 50,000 meters above the ground.
The planet Erin is a planet that is not suitable for life. Most of the people on it are slaves and robot laborers. In addition, there are about 20,000 B-1 combat robots and 1,500 Fourth Civilization Army soldiers defending it.
Jedi Master Shen Jon got off the fighter jet and personally led the army to attack the administrative control center of the planet Erin. The clone soldiers began to advance under the cover of 10 AT-TE walkers. Jon Shen's apprentice, Jedi Padawan Nat Reese, continued to fly a Delta-7 fighter jet to provide cover in the air.
The Republic Air Force, which had an absolute advantage, first shot down many Confederate fighter jets and spaceships that took off to meet the enemy. After that, the LAAT assault gunship began to use its powerful firepower to conduct fierce air strikes on ground targets. Many of the B-1 combat robots that launched a counterattack were destroyed.
After many battles, the clone troopers acted calmly and efficiently, and the cooperation between the teams was perfect. In contrast, even with the cover of the robot army, the Army of the Fourth Civilization continued to lose ground.
The hunter, the front sight, the clearing king and the technician are still four of them forming a combat team. They shuttle through the battlefield at high speed. The front sight has good marksmanship. The hunter and the clearing king are responsible for forward assault, while the technician is responsible for the rear. cover.
After more than two months of being surrounded and hunted on the planet Mingban, compared with the terrifying environment where the mountains and plains were filled with robots and there was almost nowhere to hide, such a battlefield now was nothing more than child's play for them.
"M-247! 11 o'clock direction! Three!!" the crosshair said loudly. He picked up the blaster rifle in his hand and fired several shots in that direction, but the soldiers of the fourth civilization also It was well hidden and none of these shots were able to hit it.
The battle has been going on for several months, and now both sides are basically familiar with the common equipment of the other side's frontline troops. The Fourth Civilization Army uses mostly Gauss weapons, so the gunfire and the Confederacy of Independent Systems' The Army is completely different, and gunshots are easy to distinguish.
This is especially true for the M-247 heavy machine gun used in large-scale equipment by the Fourth Civilization Army. This heavy machine gun is more powerful after being modified with electromagnetic excitation, and it is also effective against the polymer alloy armor of clone soldiers. Very obvious effect.
The clone trooper's polymer alloy armor can disperse the kinetic energy impact to the whole body to bear it, greatly reducing the impact suffered by a single point. But now the electromagnetic weapons of the Fourth Civilization widely use super matter acceleration. For the 12.7mm caliber M-247 heavy machine gun, 50 micrograms of super matter can support the firing of about 20,000 rounds of bullets. Although compared to explosive gas, it is It is indeed a bit more expensive, but its penetrating power against clone trooper combat armor is far greater than that of a blaster rifle.
Therefore, the M-247 heavy machine gun is also notorious among clone troopers.
"Is there fire support?" the hunter asked loudly. "This is the Hunter Tactical Team, coordinates H3-7-3, requesting artillery support!" The technician immediately called through the communicator. Hunter Team is the name of their new team in Shen Qiaoen's army.
"There is no extra artillery support! Repeat, there is no extra artillery support!" The rear gave a helpless answer.
The technician looked at the battlefield at the side and rear. A few hundred meters away, the AT-TE walker closest to them was firing while advancing. The length of 13 meters and the height of 5 meters made this huge The war machine is very conspicuous even from a few hundred meters away.
The four scatter blaster cannons equipped directly in front of the AT-TE were firing, and the scattered blast beams cut into dozens of lines exploded into a large area at the target point, and the B-1 combat robots there were shattered one after another. The heavy artillery behind the walker is also constantly suppressing fire from a distance.
However, they also received intensive care from the defenders. Rockets and anti-tank missiles kept roaring from all directions with long tail flames, exploding on the walking fuselage.
"We can only rely on ourselves!" the technician shouted.
"Obstacle clearer! Grenade!" The hunter yelled immediately.
“Here it comes!!” The clearing king had a clear idea and immediately picked up a few C-22 fragmentation grenades and threw them out with all his strength. He likes to exercise every day and is stronger than other clone soldiers. Even bigger [Note 1], these grenades were thrown more than a hundred meters away by him and exploded at the same time near the hillside!
The C-22 fragmentation grenade is very advanced, with a delayed explosion time of up to two minutes. The Obstacle Clearance King adjusted the delayed explosion time of these grenades so that they explode at the same time.
With the explosion of the grenade, the hunter doubled up and rushed out like a leopard. At the same time, he kept shaking left and right and changing directions. Several bullets fired at him fell into the air.
There are also several soldiers of the Fourth Civilization wearing Liberator combat uniforms shooting from behind the bunker, but the sight behind them can finally be used, even if he is holding a DC-15S blaster rifle , he also fired without a high-power scope and accurately killed two enemies.
Rushing to the bottom of the hillside, the hunter threw two grenades directly, and then rushed to the side of the firepower point like lightning. Looking at the frightened eyes of the soldiers, the hunter pulled the trigger and fired a burst of fire!
After removing this firepower point, more clone soldiers launched attacks one after another. After killing several groups of fourth civilization soldiers and robots again, they continued to push the battle line forward.
The crosshair came to the side of the hillside, took out his telescope and looked ahead, and suddenly whispered: "Hunter, I found something strange in front of me. Several separatist armored vehicles were retreating there after being injured."
"So it's either a maintenance station or a temporary base." The technician said.
"In that case, let's go!" The hunter made a decision immediately.
"Hunter Team! Your mission is to continue moving forward and capture the position in the direction of H-2-1-9!" A voice came from the rear tactical command center.
The hunter immediately turned off the communicator.
