Chapter 88 Real E-Sports.jpg
The imperial troops stationed in Blue Bay did not expect the sudden attack of the federal troops.
Although the Marquis of Ascania has changed the combat strategy of the ground troops, in their speculation, the remnants of the federal troops who were attacked should be fleeing across the continent at this time.
Instead of gathering a large number of troops and taking the initiative to attack like now.
The original mission of this imperial orbital paratrooper force that controlled Blue Bay was to guard the port and respond to the main ground forces that arrived on the ground through the space elevator and then transferred across the sea.
However, the delay in using the space elevator has frustrated the empire's idea of sending heavy troops in large quantities, which has also led to the current situation of the troops in Blue Bay being somewhat embarrassing.
It won’t work either by walking or not walking.
So, after this orbital paratrooper regiment annihilated the federal defenders and captured Blue Bay, in addition to patrolling the occupied area every day to prove their 'existence', most of the other time they spent on temporary Stay in the camp and rest.
Although the empire's orbital paratroopers have set up air-dropped wide-field electromagnetic monitoring arrays on the tops of a few high-rise buildings in the city, maintaining electronic surveillance over a large area.
However, the temporary 83rd Combined Brigade relies on the help of a relatively complete tactical support battalion and a large number of preserved electronic warfare equipment and reconnaissance equipment to miraculously hide its own electromagnetic signals while also avoiding Open enemy reconnaissance units, allowing the entire army to march in silence.
After the team in the city was attacked, and rockets and 155mm grenades fell overhead, the commander of this imperial force woke up from a dream.
In any case, the reaction of the imperial troops was indeed too slow.
After one round of school firing and two rounds of effectiveness firing, they finally reacted and began to frantically send out warnings of the attack to all surrounding friendly forces and the fleet above them.
But all was lost, and there was no response at all.
The commanders and staff of this unit immediately realized that their communications with the outside world had been blocked.
"When this new set of communication modules was issued, didn't it say that it had automatic spectrum sensing and adaptive spectrum hole utilization capabilities?! Why is it just like a pile of scrap metal now?"
Hidden somewhere in the town In the regimental command post located in the underground structure, the commander of this orbital paratrooper, Lieutenant Colonel Phillips of the Imperial Royal Navy, was furious at the regimental communications platoon.
"Captain, the attacking enemy should have used multiple wide-area electronic suppression equipment. Only in this way can our signals be completely blocked!"
The platoon leader of the communications platoon, facing Looking at the leader who was in a bad mood, he stepped forward and continued:
"According to the hostile target identification information issued before the war, the federal forces on this planet have this kind of The unit of capability, I guess, is the 'Bee' series interference truck, but the specific model is not clear."
After hearing the words of the communications platoon leader, Phillips did not continue to spray.
He also knew that the communication interruption could not be completely blamed on them. It was probably because his troops had encountered difficulties.
Be able to carry out electronic suppression of this scale and effect, coupled with the intensity of the firepower just now.
Phillips guessed that it was against a federal brigade-level force.
“Tsk, I have to find a way to knock out these sources of interference.”
Phillips switched the HUD interface of his visor to the command module, and then browsed quickly inside.
He wanted to find out if he had any countermeasures.
In order to prevent being blamed for everything, the deputy commander and chief of staff were not with him, but at another backup headquarters.
The two headquarters originally maintained contact through dual channels of wired and shortwave, and they can usually be contacted.
But I don’t know whether the federal troops are too lucky or the imperial troops are too unlucky.
After the 83rd Synthetic Brigade launched electronic suppression to interfere with short-wave communications, the simultaneous long-range strikes actually destroyed the wired communication lines near the backup headquarters.
As a result, at this point, Captain Phillips was unable to contact the staff of the backup headquarters for a while.
“You have to rely on yourself at the critical moment!”
After finding what he wanted in the command module interface, Phillips quickly edited a short combat order, and then Signal soldiers from two regiment headquarters were summoned. When communications are disrupted, these communications soldiers have to become messengers.
"Find a way to contact the two HCPs on standby and pass this order out."
"Yes! Sir!"
The two communication soldiers who took the order put on their visors and carried He picked up his weapon and ran out.
Watching them leave, Phillips found the combat staff who was with him again.
“Is the ‘Swarm’ ready?”
On the communications corps' tactical map, the last refreshed positions of the two HCPs were not far from the headquarters.
According to the previous scheduled combat plan, if attacked, while the troops shrink, the HCP will be divided into two teams, giving priority to the regiment headquarters and the backup headquarters for cover.
So the current location of these two HCPs should be near the regiment headquarters.
The two communications soldiers did not spend too much effort to find two HCPs hiding in a nearby building complex on standby.
After trying to communicate without success, the two of them suddenly crossed the street and hid next to a civilian truck.
At the same time, a laser communication mast also rose from the backpack of one of them.
Soon, after receiving combat instructions directly from the regiment commander through laser communication, the two HCPs also quickly started moving.
They raised their mechanical arms and saluted the communications soldiers, and then rushed out from both ends of the street in a burst of blue light from the plasma propulsion array.
Phillips' response method is also very simple and crude. HCP's electronic countermeasures module is the most powerful electronic warfare equipment in his hand.
Although HCP alone cannot counter the wide-area electronic suppression of federal forces, it is still possible to locate the source of interference.
One of the HCPs happens to be equipped with an 'anti-suppression backpack' - a quadruple anti-radiation missile bay.
Phillips does not expect to be able to kill the opponent's interference vehicles in one fell swoop, but at least he can force these interference vehicles to make emergency maneuvers through attacks, giving his troops a chance to breathe.
The two HCPs quickly arrived at a suitable location on the edge of the city.
From this position, they could all see two other HCPs in the distance, already fighting the attacking federal forces.
After arriving at the designated location, the HCP equipped with the 'anti-suppression backpack' took the initiative to distance itself, and finally stopped at the extreme position that could guarantee laser communication.
Subsequently, the pilot of the HCP turned on the 'passive detection mode' of the electronic countermeasures module.
In the ever-escalating electronic countermeasures, it is unrealistic to accurately locate the target position through a single means in this complex electromagnetic environment.
The difficulty is no less than that of getting the dish you want with your eyes closed in the Royal Navy's officers' mess.
So it must integrate information with other units to achieve this.
And this ‘other unit’ is another HCP.
With the help of combat assistance AI, Fanatic's electronic countermeasures module is capable of multi-mode and multi-band work.
Through the division of labor and cooperation between the two HCPs, there is indeed an opportunity to counter the enemy interference source through 'physical means'.
Don’t worry, the double update will only be late and will not be interrupted
