Chapter 777: The Battle of Keeling Wasteland (Part 2)
776. The Battle of Keeling Wasteland (Part 2)
Boom! boom! ! Three AT-XT bipedal walkers came forward and opened fire from a commanding position due to their height. In the violent explosion, several Fourth Civilization Army soldiers who were lying on the ground were suddenly engulfed in flames.
"Asshole!! Where is our AAT tank!!" Huang Yehao shouted loudly.
"The AAT tank platoon was bombed by Republic fighter planes and its advance was delayed!" the communications soldier next to him answered loudly.
The M-650 Mastodon infantry fighting vehicle immediately turned its muzzle and fired wildly with the 30mm-caliber remote-controlled cannon, but this firepower was not enough to shake the AT-XT's armor.
The AT-XT kept firing. Another Mastodon infantry fighting vehicle was hit in its tires and immediately lost control and rolled over.
"Damn it!" Huang Yehao yelled angrily, grabbed an M-41SPNKR double-barreled rocket launcher from a fireman nearby, and rushed directly towards the AT-XT walkers.
His actions were discovered immediately. The AT-XT walker immediately turned around and opened fire. Huang Yehao ran with all his strength, almost rolling across a crater. The AT-XT blaster Machine gun fire followed him, setting off bursts of explosions.
Huang Yehao understood that his only chance was that the muzzle and fuselage of the AT-XT were fixed, so if he wanted to aim, he had to adjust the direction of the fuselage. He rolled on the spot with the M-41 rocket launcher and slid down a slope. At this moment, he was within 10 meters of the side of the AT-XT!
Pick up the rocket launcher, aim and shoot!
The entire movement happened in one go, and the M-19 anti-tank rocket was instantly activated, directly hitting the AT-XT's mechanical leg joint!
Boom! ! The walker immediately fell to the ground and lost its ability to fight. Almost at the same time, another AT-XT was already aiming here and firing.
Boom! ! A blaster beam exploded less than 2 meters away from him, and Huang Yehao was immediately blown away. The newly changed Liberator II combat uniform on his body protected him from being directly blown to death, but even so , his body was also in burning pain, and several places were burned by the high temperature of the blaster beam.
He gritted his teeth, rolled over to pick up the rocket launcher from the ground, and fired another rocket directly!
boom! ! The rocket hit the front of the AT-XT, but did not penetrate the armor. The AT-XT regained its balance after shaking, and the twin blaster cannons began to aim at Huang Yehao.
However, at this moment, a much more powerful armor-piercing shell hit the AT-XT from the side. The shot penetrated directly and blew up half of the entire fuselage of the walker!
Another AT-XT also suffered the same fate. It was hit by two armor-piercing rounds, fell to the ground, burned, and never got up again.
Huang Yehao looked up and saw only three ATT armored assault tanks driving towards the rear of the battlefield at high speed! These tanks were more or less damaged, but they finally managed to rush over and used their powerful firepower to help Huang Yehao.
The AAT armored assault tank is the main battle tank currently equipped by the fourth civilization army.
In fact, it is not that the Fourth Civilization does not have its own tanks. In the recent reloading, the M-650 Mastodon armored personnel carrier and the M-9 Wolverine anti-aircraft combat vehicle were developed and put into service with the troops. -808 Scorpion main battle tank.
However, because the pace of the war is too fast, almost all the factories in the hands of the Fourth Civilization are now operating at full capacity. Therefore, the M-808 Scorpion tank is only equipped with the defense forces guarding the core planet of the Fourth Civilization and has not been deployed to other troops.
Instead, the Fourth Civilization introduced AAT armored assault tanks from the Trade Federation as the main armored force of the army.
The AAT Armored Assault Tank is a very reliable and powerful armored unit. The powerful main gun has 57 rounds of ammunition, including plasma shells, armor-piercing shells, high-explosive shells and other ammunition types, while dragons are deployed on both sides. The two blaster cannons on the mount can also provide powerful anti-infantry firepower with extremely wide coverage, and the six rocket launchers installed on the suspended chassis can also provide stronger attack firepower.
And while he was dealing with those AT-XTs, his company had also begun to break through. The M-650 Mastodon armored personnel carrier crashed directly into the Republic army's position, using the 30mm caliber remote control machine The cannon fired wildly, and used its thick body to provide a relatively safe bunker for the following soldiers.
The Republic army also had basic E-WEB blaster heavy machine gun positions, which were also destroyed by Cummings' automatic mortars. When the AAT tanks launched their assault, the Republic clone troopers finally began to retreat.
There was a roar in the sky, and more than a dozen APOD-33 transport planes were seen flying directly into the depths of the Republic's positions, escorted by Vulture fighters.
The anti-aircraft firepower on the Republic's side immediately went crazy. Missile lasers were fired continuously, shooting down the covering Vulture fighters in pieces, and even 2 or 3 transport planes were also shot down.
But those transport planes finally flew to their destination, the hatches opened, and the densely packed B-1 combat robots and B-2 super combat robots were airdropped directly!
These robots immediately began to take action after landing, and the center blossomed, immediately disrupting the clone trooper's defense line.
Looking at this scene, Huang Yehao roared and asked his soldiers to attack again. They ran all the way, and the clone soldiers continued to retreat, unable to establish a second position.
Their company merged with an airborne robot force, increasing their strength to more than 500 people, and then continued the assault until they broke into the Republic front line for more than 3,000 meters. They stopped, and the clone troops also passed through the front line. With more strength, start deploying defenses.
More Fourth Civilization Army troops also arrived one after another, allowing Huang Yehao's company to retire and reorganize later.
Huang Yehao jumped down from the AAT armored assault tank and said to Cummings: "It seems that our commander is very knowledgeable about how to use these clumsy robots. Such airdrop operations are combined with armored assault. , it can really have a good effect.”
"We have conducted many trainings before... ever since the new army lieutenant general named Dai Hongkui began to serve as deputy commander of the army." Cummings said, "I heard that General Xiao Guanghua has also been learning tactics from General Dai Hongkui. , It is said that Dai Hongkui is particularly good at armored assault tactics. He is responsible for this battle plan. "
"I hope it will help our battle situation." Huang Yehao finally has a little bit of freedom. He took off his damaged combat helmet and threw it into an M-650 Mastodon armored personnel carrier.
Another soldier threw a new helmet from inside. Huang Yehao caught it, but did not put it on immediately. Instead, he sat down and lit a cigarette for himself, "How is the battle going?" he asked the signal trooper.
"Overall, it is not ideal. Including us, only 7 places have achieved breakthroughs. This is half less than what we planned. Those clones are really powerful. If it weren't for our military strength, If they are 4 times larger, the situation will be unimaginable. We have about 2 hours of rest time. After that, our next task is to capture Highland 1103. We want to establish a siege tank position there to support other directions in breaking through the Republic as soon as possible. Line of defense," the signal soldier said.
"Is the air support gone?" Huang Yehao asked again.
"It was gone half an hour ago. You should thank Ferlando for their M-9 Wolverine anti-aircraft vehicle, otherwise we would have been bombed long ago." Cummings said at the side.
"It will take another 2 hours for the ghost fighter formation to charge the stealth device and complete the overhaul." said the communications soldier.
"Well, at least we don't have to attack a high ground with bombs falling from the sky." Huang Yehao scratched his head and said in a deep voice, "Brothers, hurry up and eat something, the tough battle is still to come!"< br>
Thanks to Mr. Bai Xiruo for the 1,500 starting coins! !
