At this time, a fierce battle that took place in front of the bridge of the Natural Herald had just ended.
The passage square in front of the armored gate is littered with twisted fragments and metal spikes of combat robots and various armed vehicles that were destroyed in the battle.
Of course, it also includes the twisted corpses that are even more unbearable to read. The smell of blood is floating in the space inside the bridge, and even the denser smell of gunpowder smoke can never cover it up.
However, only 20% of the bodies that died here were those of Community soldiers. Their remains had already been sent back to the ship. As for the dead Imperial soldiers, they were swept aside like garbage and moved out of the way.
A way forward.
Two wheeled assault vehicles for street fighting have advanced to the gate. This wheeled vehicle looks very old-fashioned, but its advantage lies in its reliability. They leaned in front of the gate and raised a weapon wrapped in a destructive force field.
The impact warhammer began to continuously hit the thick armored door.
Since it is the bridge defense of the Titan ship, you can imagine how strong the design will be. In fact, this door is made of the same emerald steel armor material as the battleship's armor, and is also covered with shields and energy coatings.
When the disintegrating force field and the energy shield collided, the scene suddenly flashed with dazzling bright light, and the buzzing and trembling sound was deafening, as if tens of thousands of bees were flying.
When Lieutenant Colonel Rozez, wearing power armor, arrived at the bridge gate, this was what he saw.
He quickly found Brigadier General Tai'a in his own army formation that was ready for action. This young female general, who had only been in the army for two months and had received a general star, was wearing only a tight-fitting anti-Dutch uniform and was sitting on the march.
On the horse, he was carrying a bottle of wine.
Her heraldic machine stood on the side like a statue, covered with bloodstains and stains. The bloodstains belonged to others, and the stains were scratches from explosions and live ammunition, all on the front, but there was no structural damage.
It can be seen that General Tai'a was indeed charging forward all the way. At the same time, she was indeed charging all the way and did not encounter the danger of being surrounded by the enemy.
Rozeshi quickly made these analyses.
The only serious wound was a cut on the mecha's shoulder. The wound was very deep, almost completely cut open and treated with alchemy, and penetrated into the zero-element shoulder armor. The periphery of the wound was very smooth, like a burn.
The red knife cut through it like butter.
This should be a mystical effect, but this is beyond the scope of Luo Zeshi's knowledge.
Fortunately, Tai'a himself was not injured, there wasn't even a trace of blood on his body, and he couldn't see much fatigue.
She quickly felt the visitor's gaze, put down the bottle of wine, wiped her mouth, and argued: "I climbed up first. After fighting for such a long time, can't I take a break?"
"You are the first to kill a general and seize a ship! My subordinates will never dare to accuse you." Luo Zeshi smiled. He looked at the wine bottle and found that it was a small brand of Lao Baigan produced in New China. As for the female general sitting on the
The maza he wears is clearly a large mecha helmet. Judging from the gorgeous personalized carving decoration on it, it is clearly a heraldic machine.
"The boatswain of this ship is a colonel of the Imperial Army. He seems to be the third son of an earl family, and has a serious knighthood. He announced his name in a very formal manner, but he was stabbed by me half way through.
Cut it off." Tai'a sneered and said: "We are a wild girl who grew up in New China, and we can't see such a noble man pretending to be here. Besides, this is just a helmet. The guy's head and corpse have been sewn and decorated.
Now. I have no problem with sitting on the head and drinking."
"...General, you are indeed heroic! I respect you!" Lieutenant Colonel Luo Zeshi bowed to the opponent.
Tai'a didn't understand whether the other party was sarcastic or complimentary, so he decided to take it as the former, and asked casually: "I heard that you captured their security director?"
Luo Zeshi nodded: "He was unlucky. His legs were broken and he was seriously injured. He was lying in the cargo hold of the medical robot for transfer, but he was intercepted by our landing soldiers and became a prisoner in a coma."
Tai'a thought about that scene carefully and felt that it must be very humiliating for a psyker, so he immediately laughed out loud on the spot.
"He is actually lucky, otherwise he would probably be chopped down by me here." Tai'a said with a smile.
Luo Zeshi felt that although what the other party said was cruel, it was also very reasonable. He pondered for a moment and then said: "I also heard that you met Viscount Shameen of the Astral Knights?"
Tai'a pursed his lips and smiled: "Ah haha, he didn't announce his name this time, and even made a sneak attack, but unfortunately he was not in a good condition and failed. Obviously, this guy is really not good at sneak attacks. Even if
If you don't speak, isn't the coat of arms on the breastplate enough to identify you?"
Luo Zeshi expressed his understanding. I heard that the son-in-law who was born into a noble family is still one of the Four Heavenly Kings. He has probably been the pride of heaven since he was a child. This kind of person is destined not to be good at sneak attacks.
"That guy is worthy of being the star of hope of this generation of the Astral Knights. He should have reached the fifth ring. If it weren't for the fact that his right hand was gone and his physical and spiritual abilities were at their lowest, I probably wouldn't be his opponent.
." Tai'a looked at the wound on his shoulder, with a hint of fear in his voice.
Needless to say, this wound must have been inflicted by Viscount Chamaine.
Although he was frightened, his voice was also filled with obvious pride and excitement. After all, a boss battle with residual health can also be regarded as an achievement. How could skipping a level with residual health not be considered a leapfrog?
Tai'a continued: "I penetrated Viscount Shameen's abdomen and chest. It is certain that he was injured. He found that he could not win, so he ran away on the spot."
"escaped?"
Tai'a nodded: "Yes, without hesitation, make a prompt decision. The figure running away is so decisive, so fast, and even a bit handsome. If this kind of psyker really wants to escape, unless
There were two or three more of me at the scene, otherwise it would be really difficult to intercept."
Luo Zeshi nodded thoughtfully: "Since just now, emergency traffic boats have been popping up and escaping from this Titan ship. Our fighter planes have already gone to intercept it."
Tai'a's eyes lit up. If a dignified five-ring psychic was killed by a fighter plane piloted by a mortal while escaping in a boat, the scene would be even more beautiful, especially in line with her bad taste.
"It is said that one of the traffic boats showed a surreal level of maneuverability and managed to escape from the siege of our fighter planes. We did not even block it. This must be Viscount Shameen, right?"
Well, with the neural reaction speed and dynamic vision of psykers, especially such excellent astral knights, as long as they learn the basic driving knowledge, they will be able to operate like an ace pilot, even if they only have one hand left.
It will definitely have little impact.
Tai'a suddenly showed a disappointed look: "Tsk, I hope he can be vaporized by a stray bullet."
Luo Zeshi nodded: "I am also looking forward to this."
Tai'a asked casually: "How is the war situation outside? But has it stabilized?"
In fact, she is not very interested in the current battle situation. Luo Zeshi is the adjutant of the junior uncle and has been on standby on the Fuxi. Since he has landed aboard, it naturally means that the entire battle situation is completely clear. But
, she finally knew that she was the highest commander on the scene, and even if it was just a pretense, it was necessary to express her concern for the actual battle situation.
From this perspective, although the Bai family has always been a rebellious people, their emotional intelligence has always been salvageable.
Therefore, Rozes, a well-trained elite officer, also reported with a correct attitude: "The remnants of the Sobek Fleet and the Tarlian Fleet are retreating to Gravity Well No. 2 and No. 3 respectively. Although they are in retreat,
, but the Imperial fleet is still in good order and should still have a certain amount of combat effectiveness. Considering that our army was also too consumed and enemy reinforcements would arrive in 45 minutes, we did not continue the pursuit."
"The Debate on Cao GUI", I have also learned this. Tai'a nodded and imitated Yu Lian's tone and said: "You did the right thing."
Rozeshi held back his laughter and continued: "According to the report from the Sky Survey Eye, Vice Admiral Biffick's fast fleet and Admiral Rosanaio's Imperial fleet will appear one after another from two gravity wells. Our minelayers
The boat has already started working. At least it can be delayed for a while."
Tai'a continued to nod, but then asked curiously: "Well, didn't you say that the remaining fleet of the empire still has combat effectiveness? Aren't you afraid that the minelayer will be attacked?"
Still wearing a humble smile, Luo Zeshi explained: "The minelayers have well-established working procedures and will try their best to ensure a safe distance. In addition, these basic work boats are fully automatic and are under the unified command of the work mothership.
"
Only then did Taia realize that she, a rookie officer with no strength, had shown cowardice again, but fortunately, her shame didn't matter at all, and she even mentioned her old man and fucked her twice.
"Okay, I understand. We still have forty-five minutes. Of course, the only thing that needs to be considered is the bridge here." Tai'a looked at the armor door that was still flashing with light: "There are still things inside.
There are more than two thousand people, most of them are technical troops. There are no heavy weapons, and there are no psykers. Captain, first mate, second mate..."
"And the navigator? Yes, the navigator on the Titan ship should also be a psyker, right?"
"Yes. When he was fighting just now, he and the boatswain charged at me." Tai'a patted his horse: "Obviously he was an 'explorer', but he was so brave. This is the first time I have seen him.
Such a brave exploration."
Luo Zeshi couldn't help but be in awe: "Then what?"
"Then? I ended up getting beaten up by my cousin. As I said, watching the duel between 'Exploration' and 'Community' in the second ring was actually quite an interesting experience."
Tai'a's tone was very subtle, and Luo Zeshi couldn't help but think of two kittens fighting each other with their pads. He believed that the general must be thinking so now.
"Immediately afterwards, the navigator, Lieutenant Colonel Novon, surrendered. Speaking of which, this seems to be the first psyker in the empire to surrender to us since the war began, right?"
Luo Zeshi nodded: "Thank you for your hard work... Lieutenant Colonel Bai Ziya."
He was really a little surprised. After all, Xiaobai was also one of the first members of the youth club, and he was also the "rival" and comrade-in-arms of the original Navy Day. He also talked and laughed happily during the celebration banquet.
After all, their family runs a shipyard, and Luo Zeshi himself is also very knowledgeable in armaments and technology. Naturally, he is very willing to deal with the youth version of the big tech masters with unlimited potential. So, after a meal, although it is not
I have to cut off the chicken head and burn the yellow paper, but we can indeed be regarded as friends with similar views and hobbies.
In his image, the young man was soft on the outside but strong on the inside. He was a herbivore on the outside, but he had good ideas. He was born to play with the designer's pen and the engineer's screwdriver. However, his aura was incompatible with swords and guns.
.
Hey, this is also a stereotype. Luo Zeshi thought. People with good ideas are determined, so what can't they learn?
"Then, their people..." Luo Zeshi could not find his old friend in the crowd.
"Little... Lieutenant Colonel Bai escorted the prisoners of war to the second central control room. The boy said he wanted to see if he could obtain the central control authority of the Titan ship, so that he could directly open the door."
Tai'a is a little uncomfortable with calling his brother by his job title.
Luo Zeshi smiled and said: "The people on the bridge are all die-hards, but they are actually unwilling to surrender. It seems that they still have some illusions!"
Of course, how stubborn one can be is a relative concept.
The nobles of the empire have been favored by the country for generations. These gentlemen may have the idea of repaying their kindness with death. Maybe they cannot say "surrender" due to their status, but the two or three thousand people among them cannot be all die-hards. In the final analysis, they are just receiving pay.
It’s just a day for people to eat, how many so-called dead soldiers are there?
If it's normal, I'm afraid we won't be able to wait long before fighting begins.
But the problem is that everyone has only more than forty minutes left. This is probably the source of hope that these imperial troops are still willing to persist.
Therefore, attacking hard all the way and seeing if we can solve it with technical means can be regarded as a two-pronged approach.
However, as a killer, ah, no, an art student, Tai'a said she couldn't understand her cousin's technical methods. Because she couldn't understand, she didn't have much hope. She always looked forward to a strong attack: "You bring
How many reinforcements are coming?"
"I landed with the Fuxi Marine Corps, and there was a Tiger Brigade of 4,000 people. In addition, the engineering troops boarded the ship with the follow-up troops, and more than 20,000 people successfully boarded the ship. Arrangements were made on the spot, and everyone from the left
Brigadier General Wanhu and Colonel Mia Walter are dispatched."
Tai'a nodded. In this way, at least on the Natural Crest, the strength of the two sides was basically equal.
"Here on the bridge, I have brought a regiment, all soldiers of the Tiger Division. There are also four heavy-duty assault vehicles and a group of demolition robots. If the door is too hard, let the robots penetrate through the ventilation ducts."
Tai'a thinks it's okay, but with only one regiment of troops, doesn't it mean he doesn't take himself as a former enemy commander seriously?
Luo Zeshi explained: "The soldiers who landed on this ship have occupied four engine rooms and power control cabins, and are currently occupying all the energy transfer control rooms and fire control rooms along the passages on both sides of the ship room.
As for the main passage of cabin C, it connects to the lower deck of the ship and the hangar. We have not risked an attack for the time being, but have blocked the passage with heavy weapons."
Tai'a nodded. If this is the strategy, even if 20,000 to 30,000 reinforcements are landed, the troops will indeed be stretched thin. Only one regiment can be allocated to support itself, which is very reasonable.
But why?
Tai'a looked at the other party suspiciously, but did not ask questions immediately. She knew that she might show her timidity again when she opened her mouth.
Fortunately, the considerate Luo Zeshi took the initiative to explain: "If we can successfully occupy the engine room, power control room and energy transfer room, we can manually close the connection between the bridge and these important departments. In this way,
Even if the enemy in the bridge does not surrender, we can still drive this Titan ship back to the fortress."
