PS: (Please subscribe and vote for votes~~Chapter 1 is here!)
Liu Qi's daily life is quite leisurely now. During the day, he helps others and drives the air king to proficient in flying skills and then adjusts/plays Maliu from time to time. At night, he goes directly to Bucky Lulu's room to hug the beautiful girl's ketone body and sleeps soundly.
Time flies by in this rare calm and leisure. In a blink of an eye, a week passed by the day when Liu Qi and his men went to Baladia.
C.E. 28th February 71 at the morning
After a whole week of preparation and rest, the Archangel, which had reached its best state in terms of supplies and personnel's mental outlook, finally activated its engine again, and opened the road in front of the Dawn Desert and moved quickly towards the Red Sea.
As an agreement reached by Mali and the three of them in a few days with Saibu Ashuma, Dawn Desert fully assisted the Archangel in breaking through, and the Archangel tried its best to help Dawn Desert seize the eastern port city occupied by the desert tiger.
After discussing, Mali and the other two agreed to this kind of favorable thing at once. Anyway, that place is now occupied by Zaft, and the Archangel will follow the route according to the breakout route. Why not help the Dawn Desert? As for whether the Dawn Desert's wish can be realized then, that is another matter.
So in the words of the Dawn Desert family, they bid farewell to their father, son and brothers, dozens of desert track cars and off-road vehicles rushed out of the canyon with hope for the future, and the huge figure of the Archangel followed closely.
.........
Less than ten minutes after the Archangel appeared in the desert
In the command room of a large land warship of Zaft hundreds of kilometers away
"Sir, this is the new type of ship of the Earth United Army discovered by satellites. These small vehicles are judged to be rebels from the Dawn Desert!"
After seeing his captain leading the captain and two elites in red walking into the command room, he immediately stood up and saluted his commander and reported.
"It's long legs!!"
Yizhak looked at the extremely familiar battleship on the screen and couldn't help but shout, and the scar on his face also became ferocious.
"Are you breaking through to the ruins of Tarbadia Industrial Zone... Yes, if I were the other party's commander, I would choose this direction to break through..."
On the outside, Andrew Balterfield, a desert tiger who was in his prime, looked at the screen, quickly calculated the location of the Archangel and the surrounding topographic map in his heart, and then said in a somewhat complimentary tone.
"team leader..."
After hearing what his boss said, the adjutant of the Desert Tiger suddenly felt a little waxed, and quickly reminded him that now is no longer as good as when only members of the Balterfield team were not concerned, the two Kruze teams, Yizak and Diaka, were still in the command room, aren't it? I vaguely know that these two adjutants with the background of the red-clothed elite don't want their boss to be scolded or punished by the superiors for sympathizing with the enemy.
"I still want to wait for a day or two before we take the initiative to attack... It seems that there is nothing we can do..."
Andrew Balterfield obviously understood what his adjutant meant, and he immediately changed the subject, so he didn't want to eat the top of the line.
"Do you want to attack?"
Izhak, who had already hated the attack on Gundam and the Archangel, immediately interrupted.
"Well... Reseps is dispatched! Height 02! Also notify Ditri and Henry Kata, and come and meet with us immediately!"
Regarding Yizhak's sudden speech, the Desert Tiger frowned slightly and returned to his calmness, and then ordered the personnel in the command room.
"yes!"
The two correspondents from the battleship command room immediately began to contact the two nearest Zaft land warships.
"Others are ready for battle!"
The Desert Tiger looked at Yizhak and Diaka on the side and said meaningfully.
"yes!"
Yitzhak and Diaka saluted and replied.
.........
More than an hour later
In Gnaku on the Archangel
"After a short attack, Kira and I are responsible for those enemies. You can just restrain the enemies on the outside!"
Amid the sound of inspection preparations by the staff of the preparatory squad, Mu held his helmet and ordered Liu Qi and Kira with a serious look on his face. Of course, what he focused on was Liu Qi, who was still a rookie pilot in his eyes.
In fact, except for Liu Qi himself and Bucky Lulu, no one else, including Maliu, Kira and Mu, thinks that Liu Qi can achieve any results and achievements in this battle - it is one thing for Liu Qi to be able to master the Air Overlord, but it is another thing for driving the Air Overlord to fight Zaft.
"Don't worry, I'm not a child. I know what I can do and what I can't do..."
Liu Qi looked calm and nodded when Mu looked down on his words.
Liu Qi didn't have the interest to refute this poor man Mu. Anyway, everything depends on personal performance on the battlefield. At that time, the real record is much more powerful than empty words!
"Hmph...I hope so!"
Mu looked at Liu Qi who was not answering his own words and wished him a little in his heart that the guy was beaten down by Zaft as soon as he appeared, and then he left with a word.
"Uh...that, Mr. Liu Qi, don't take it to heart, the major is just talking..."
Kira, who was on the side, didn't speak until Mu left, trying to reconcile the tension between Liu Qi and Mu.
"Yeah, I didn't take it to my heart at first. Let's fight on the battlefield later. The enemy is quite strong this time!"
Liu Qi looked at Kira and said calmly.
Indeed, of course he would not be the same as Mu, a guy who would be eliminated soon in his plan. In contrast, he was more looking forward to the air battle for a while. Even NZT could not stop Liu Qi's blood from boiling.
"Ah?! OK! Come on!"
Seeing the strong fighting spirit in Liu Qi's eyes, Kira, who had originally planned to persuade him, became a little confused. After Liu Qi said this, he realized it.
"Hurry up! Get ready to board the plane!"
The staff of Gnaku, who were on the side, saw the two of them still chatting, and quickly urged them to meet enemies at any time and had no time to let you chat here. After being urged like this, Kira and Liu Qi couldn't continue chatting, so they waved their hands and entered their respective cockpits and stood by.
Ten minutes later
In Gnaku
"Discover the enemy's traces!!"
"Attack Gundam! Air King!! Attack immediately!!"
Accompanied by the shouts and alarms of the communications soldiers in the ship, Lieutenant Bucky Lulu's command echoed throughout Gnaku.
"Air King 1! Attack!!"
"Attack Gundam! Attack!!"
Accompanied by two shouts in the communication channel, Mu and Kira both drove their respective cars and ejected out of the flight track.
"Air King 2 is ready! Get ready to set off!"
Milialia's voice began to remind Liu Qi in the communicator of the Air King 2.
"Private Liu Qi, remember that you have not conducted regular flight training and do not have actual combat experience. Therefore, the purpose of your attack this time is to harass the enemy as much as possible!"
Bucky Lulu said from the communication channel with some concern.
"Don't worry! I understand! Air King 2! Attack!!"
Although Liu Qi wanted to have a love conversation with Bucky Lulu at this time, considering that he was fighting now and Mary and others were on the bridge, he could only comfort Bucky Lulu with affirmative words and then set off directly!
Accompanied by a shout, the Air King 2 aircraft was launched under the control of Liu Qi. With several tail flames, the blue and white body took off from the catapult runway!
.........
"Bang bang bang..."
"Boom--"
"Swoosh-swoosh-"...
In the desert, the Archangel and the Dawn Desert had already started fighting with Zaft's side. More than 20 Zaft armed helicopters were coming towards the Archangel like a group of dead vultures. The sound of airborne artillery firing and missile launches exploded. However, the attack on Gundam and Air Overlord 1 aircraft that had just launched their attacks knew that these were just appetizers and were cooperating with the Archangel's fire network to remove these annoying flies.
"Two land warships! Five Baku! Six shelling MS Zaut! Duel Gundam and Storm Gundam! Eighteen armed helicopters... No, there are seventeen left!"
Liu Qi, who was driving the Air King 2 aircraft, had just ejected out, and the mental power scan emitted told Liu Qi that the number of enemies had appeared on the battlefield.
“Preferring priority to those armed helicopters!”
With this idea, Liu Qi flexibly controlled the Overlord in the Air to avoid the attacks of two Zaft armed helicopters, and Liu Qi aimed directly at the target and prepared to open fire.
So, everyone on the Archangel bridge saw a very powerful scene. The Air King 2 aircraft equipped with strong attack on Gundam Sword War was not like a newcomer who had just learned to drive. Instead, it was as casual as an experienced ace pilot in the battle group, opening fire from time to time to take away a Zaft's armed helicopter, and his agile figure was not hit by the enemy's counterattack firepower at all.
More than ten Zaft's armed helicopters were completely destroyed by Liu Qi and the Archangel in just three minutes, and Baku, who was released by the enemy, was still some distance away from the Archangel's position.
"Machine No. 2, it's done well, but it's not that easy next!"
Liu Qi's performance not only surprised everyone on the Archangel bridge, but even Mu, the person with the worst relationship with Liu Qi, nodded secretly after seeing it, so Mu's tone was much better.
"Attack Gundam and Dawn Desert are responsible for the Baku, the Air Overlord harasses the two warships, and set off!"
After a little praise, Mu made such an arrangement.
"good!"
Liu Qi agreed in the cockpit. Liu Qi, the several Zaft armed helicopters he had just killed, used air cannons to solve the problem. Even the beam cannons and the sword war equipment that attacked Gundam were useless. He was about to rush down and kill one of Baku to try it.
Two air overlords hovered slightly and rushed directly to Zaft's two land warships in mid-air.
"Kira, there is another special-equipped Baku behind those five Bakus. It is the captain's plane!! In addition, the Archangel, I seem to see another new battleship!"
Liu Qi drove the Air King 2 aircraft to approach the Zaft battleship with much weaker firepower, directly pulled the Air King throne, and then avoided the anti-aircraft firepower with a nearly 90-degree vertical sprint, sending two missiles and two beam cannons to the battleship, directly destroying a main turret and an artillery-type track MS, Liu Qi used the Air King to escape from the anti-aircraft firepower and warned Kira and Archangel.
"Captain Baku? OK, I saw it!"
After receiving Liu Qi's reminder, Kira, who had just shot one Baku, happened to jump away from another Baku and saw a golden and red captain plane appearing within his sight, and quickly opened his mouth to thank him.
