The worst news that Delta Force, which boarded Gloria's castle, had lost its most important target crosser, and moreover had been cut off and isolated, instantly ran across the entire army.
"Emergency incoming power over Delta!! As soon as possible, he wants us to drop in a collection unit!!
"Command incoming call. We need to get our troops to the castle and retrieve Delta immediately."
"Right...... All right, let's get the 1st Battalion to Delta's retrieval. The 2nd and 3rd battalions will continue to focus on securing the bridgehead."
"" "Roger!!
Soldiers from the 75th Ranger Regiment move in unison when orders are given from Regiment headquarters upon request from Delta and instructions from Command.
"Sieg, I knew it was a mess."
"Lufe or... oh, I think I got your prediction"
Sergeant Sieg Bread and his contemporaneous Sergeant Rufe Wax were discussing with a dark face that what they were talking about before landing had become a reality in the first battalion, where the order to go down and rushed out.
"Get in there, those two!!
"" Ha!!
"I'll see you later, Sieg. Don't die."
"I know. You, too."
"Ah."
Driven by his superiors, Sieg and Sergeant Roufe broke up the conversation and smiled as they lastly poked their fists at each other, boarding a separate M1151 armoured reinforced Hanvey.
"All aboard?
"Ha, all 1st Battalion are boarded."
"Ok...... let's go!!
When the soldiers of the 1st Battalion mount Hanvey or the M939 cargo truck - an armoured plate with a gunport (guneye) made by overlapping a 5mm thick iron plate and ceramic plate, not under the cover of the frame of the carrier, and then mount a gun rack on the roof of the driver's seat and board a gun truck with two M2 machine guns, a flock of cars moves out to recover an isolated delta in the middle of the enemy land.
"Attention all, salute!!
"" "" Huh!!
Soldiers from the second and third battalions, left on the beach in the sand as they lined up in a straight line and continued to break into downtown Gloria, dropped them off with salute.
"... you're full of enemies"
When Siege and the others entered downtown White Asia, Imperial Army soldiers and shadows were watching the 1st Battalion's lanes from bends and alleys there.
"Sergeant!! Can I shoot those guys!?
Private Graman, who holds an M2 heavy machine gun in an upper gun seat protected by additional armored bulletproof glass and thick armoured plates, asked Zeke for permission to fire.
"No, I don't think it's an enemy, but I can't abandon the possibility of being a resident here."
"But!!
"Give it up. Unless you do something, you're gonna have to shoot civilians."
"… Copy"
Senior Private Glamon, who replied in a shameless manner and silenced him, elsewhere. Sieg turned his gaze to the sky.
I wish I could get to the castle like this.
... I guess I can't.
Aerial warfare taking place over the air to regain control - F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and F-35C Lightning II, F-14 Denying his optimistic thoughts while watching the dragon knight's ravaging play by Tomcat, Sieg poked the SCAR-H out the passenger seat window and stood ready to shoot at any time.
And it was when the soldiers of the 1st Battalion brushed their nerves down to the monstrous shadows and creepy tranquillity like before the storm that would always accompany them, about half a kilometer down the road to the castle and into the great crossroads.
"Whoa!?
Suddenly a thick, large wall appeared to block Siege's path of riding Hanvey.
"Huh!? Danger!!
Private Ritz-Carlton, who holds the steering wheel, stopped the car with a sharp brake, sparing Siege's Hanvey the crash against the wall on the verge.
"Hey, what is this!!
"Ew, enemy attack!! There are enemies everywhere!
Though the clash was spared, Private Graman's sharp voice echoed as Siege panicked at the fact that the lane had been broken in two due to the wall that had risen from the ground as if it were a willed organism, followed by gunfire from Dadadadadada and M2 heavy machine guns.
"Fuck you, ambush me!! - Turn left, turn left!! Turn left!!
Sieg makes a rash judgement as he fights back with SCAR-H in a dangerous situation where the enemy comes out of a window called the building window facing the crossroads and fires bullets, magic, and arrows.
"What!? And, but sergeant!! Don't you have to help the other side of the wall!?
But Private Carlton, who listened to Siege's orders, doesn't want to worry about whether he can abandon his companions who are under intensive fire across the wall and in distress.
"It's too late for the previous ones!! Just go!! If we stay here, we'll be hives too!! Just go!! Get it out!!"
In the characteristic footsteps of Gashan, Gashan, a continuously audible explosion and interrupter from across the wall, as well as a demon-guided weapon that occurs as he moves, Zeke chose to give up the rescue of his companion, Sergeant Roufe, who was riding the Hanvey right in front of him, with the thought of a severed bowel, and rebuild his posture away from the scene.
"Ri, Roger!!
As soon as Siege yells at his enemies with 6.8 x 43 mm SPC bullets sprinkled at him in the shape of a ghost, and the enemy bullets are stuck in the bulletproof windshield, the driver steps through the accelerator thoughtfully and forcefully by cutting the nodding handle wide over and over again.
"This is Sergeant Bread!! Follow the back car!! We're getting away from this fucking place!!
"" "" Roger!!
When the rear wheel of Sieg's riding Hanvey turns at high speeds with the gully, and moves like a detachment as he winds up the dust, the car that followed him desperately.
"Whew!? One hair at a time!!"
As soon as the train escaped from the crossroads by Siege's lead, several demon-guided weapons that ravaged and devoured their prey pushed the wreckage of the destroyed vehicle back through the walls and came out to the crossroads.
"Ahhhh!! If we'd stayed there, we'd be dead too!?
"Sergeant Bread, you're so sweet!!
In Hanvey's car running at the rear of the train, the soldiers appreciated Sieg's judgment.
"Sergeant!! Which way to go!?
"Just turn right at the next turn and go straight ahead!!
As the two new types of guns newly deployed to the Imperial Army, involving travellers who had hoped for asylum to Parabellum from design to manufacture - miniers who used unique ammunition called minier ammunition with better power, range, hitting accuracy, and continuous firing capability than the musket guns that had been used since before, and demon guns that compressed and fired as energy ammunition from users - poured rain, the Sieges were shooting as fast as allowances and desperately moving forward.
"Ri, Roger!! - WOW!?
"Damn!? I want to!!
But the wizards of the Imperial Army who waited ahead of Hanvey, who ran away, create a wall again to stop the Sieges from fleeing the Killzone.
"Don't stop!! Get in there!!"
"Sergeant!? Ugh, wow, wow!
If you stop, you die.
We know that. Sieg kicked Private Carlton's foot back, who tried to step on the brake accidentally at the same time as the appearance of the wall, and with his own foot stepped in the accelerator and rammed it into the wall in the process of formation at a fierce speed.
"Grr!!
"Wow!?
An awesome shock runs on Hanvey the moment he hits a wall that was creeping up from the ground.
"- Let go!! Keep running!!
"Ri, Roger. No, no!
As the enemy was ambushing Ujauja even before he forcefully broke through the wall, Zeke flies his instructions to Private Carlton as he retreats his feet from the accelerator pedal and devotes himself to fighting back.
Chi, that sucks!!
As Zeke countered from inside Hanvey's diseased vehicle, besides soldiers from the Imperial Army, irregular soldiers, such as Gloria's residents and adventurers, were attacking the train.
"Get out of the city!!
"Fuck you, invaders!!
"Death to the barbarians who join hands with the Subhumans!!
"Give me the hammer of justice with all the fools who disobey the teachings of God!!
"Kill the heathen!!
Gloria had many devout followers of Lowen religion just because it was a sub-city of the Empire.
For this reason, an unrelenting attack had been carried out by the faithful against heathens who did not obey the teachings of Lowen - the soldiers of Parabellum.
"God, give me strength. God, give me the power to defeat my enemies. Give the heathen the power to bring down the hammer of justice."
On the second floor of the building in the direction of the train lane, an adventurer apprentice boy whispered those words and waited jizzily for the lurking car lane to come into the shadow of the window.
"Ha, ha, ha, ha"
When he senses the train approaching with the unfamiliar engine sound, the boy leads an arrow to the bow in his hand and exhales in a constant rhythm, increasing his concentration to the extreme.
And the moment the train came just that far, the boy, who stopped breathing and leaned himself out of the window and squeezed the bow string to its fullest point, set his aim in an instant, punching away the hand holding the arrow and string.
"Shit!! The enemy is everywhere!! Sergeant!! Quick, cheap - guh."
The arrow released by the boy pierced the neck of Private Graman, who was shooting an M2 heavy machine gun at the upper gun seat.
"Wow!? - So, Glamon!? Sergeant, Sergeant!! The grammar!!
"What's wrong!? - You're lying... Huh!!
Siege caught sight of Private Glamon as he collapsed from the upper gun seat into the car.
The body is gutted and relaxed, the eyes peel off their white eyes, and the blood is dodgy from the neck where the arrows pierce them.
"Immediate death... is imminent death. Sergeant!!"
It was clear that Private Graman was dead in action.
"CHICKLES...... CHICKLES!! How dare you kill me!! Fuck off!!"
Sieg, who burns in the wrath of getting his men killed, puts up an Enemy gun in return and shoots down an Imperial Army soldier who was about to shoot him.
"Somebody put it on the gun seat!!
"Ok, I'll go!! Come on - Tavare, you motherfuckers!! Whoa, whoa, whoa!
A soldier sitting in the back seat answered Sieg's order, quickly pressing the cocking lever on the right side of the machine part of the M2 heavy machine gun twice per gun seat vigorously, pushing Gachangachan and pulling a new bullet into the medicine chamber, squeezing the grip of the wooden grip and starting to push the "C letter" push gold (trigger) in with both thumbs.
A 12.7x99mm NATO bullet that reassures allies and shoots down enemies is fired.
That's how the number of bullets that gradually flew as the Sieges continued to run desperately obsessed with selflessness decreased, and at the end of the day, the bullets stopped flying completely and I couldn't see the enemy soldiers.
"Attack stopped?
Sieg was surprised at the enemy soldiers who stopped the attack and suddenly disappeared into a large square.
"Out... did you?
You broke through the siege net, so you don't have any enemy soldiers?
... you can't even think about it.
There were no enemy soldiers in and around the square, just silence spreading.
"Well, for now... escape success... right"
"Yay, thanks...... I thought I was going to die..."
Siegs were all stroking their breasts down in the parked Hanvey.
"Well done, Sergeant Bread. I'll take command from now on. '
Copy that, Captain Kirby.
It was Sieg, who was in command at the Achievement, but returned command to Captain Krauts Kirby, the highest ranking in this room right now.
"Phew...... You did well, too. Next time, please."
Sieg slaps Private Carlton on the shoulder like he labors.
"Oh, thank you. Sergeant."
Private Carlton, slapped on the shoulder, was laughing in the light.
"Well... we're moving Graman's body to the truck now....... hmm?
I noticed someone's voice coming into the onboard radio as the Zeeks managed to cut through the predicament were rebuilding their posture in the square.
"- Zah, Zah. Somebody!! Somebody respond!! This is Wax, Zah, Enemy - Satsuki - Zah, Rescue - I did, Zah, come on!! Zach, Zach, the wounded soldier... Zach.
You're lying!?
There were many parts of the noise that could not be heard badly, but Sieg was convinced that it was Sergeant Rufe Wax who was asking for help across the radio.
"This is Sergeant Bread!! Lufe!? Come in!!
"Zazar, please!! Somebody respond!! Zah."
"Shit!!
I grabbed the radio microphone and Zeke called Sergeant Lufe, but Sergeant Lufe's voice didn't reach the other side of what I could hear.
"Captain!! Captain Kirby!!
When he found out Sergeant Loufe was alive, Zeke jumped out of Hanvey and ran over to Captain Kirby, who was exchanging radio with Command.
"What's up? Sergeant."
"The roofe!! No, Sergeant Wax is alive!!
"Oh. I just found out, too, via command. And, to be exact, there are about fifty soldiers alive, including Sergeant Wax."
"Then get to the rescue!!
"... unfortunately, the orders from the command are to rendezvous with an isolated delta"
"So there are other rescue units on their way?
"No, I'm not on my way"
"Become... no..."
Sieg was stunned by the cruel news that jumped out of Captain Kirby's mouth.
"We've pretty much eliminated the empty enemy, but now it seems the enemy on the ground is in a full-scale counterattack. They say our regiment can't send out rescue troops while they're engaged with enemy troops on the beach."
"Then let alone we have to go to the rescue!!
"Sergeant Bread, I know how you feel... but Sergeant Wax is in enemy territory two kilometers away from here, you think we can get there?
Captain Kirby said so and looked at the tragedy of the remaining soldiers.
……
"It's impossible to go from here to help Sergeant Wax with another intensive enemy fire. We'll do our best to get to the castle now. Assuming you went to help Sergeant Wax, there's no room for you to head from there to the castle."
The survival of the first battalion was many wounded soldiers. It no longer worked as a unit of combat, just as it had been wiped out in military terms.
"... got it... got it"
To Captain Kirby's words, Sieg turned back on his heels with his face down and his items hanging.
"... mmm"
"- Enemy attack!!
"Huh!! All hands, prepare to fire!! Don't shoot until the enemy shoots at you, attract enough and then shoot!!
A soldier on the lookout raised his voice as Captain Kirby watched the rear of Siege as he left with a sense of remorse that he could not go to help his people and the need to abandon them twice.
"... what are those guys?
"Creepy."
On Captain Kirby's orders, the soldiers who held the SCAR simultaneously twist their necks at the enemy's unusual actions.
All the countless Imperial Army soldiers who emerged as Zorro from the six paths leading to the square approach the Fluffy and Sieges as they draw swords, guns and other weapons in slow footsteps.
"... shoot"
Captain Kirby, who felt something unpleasant about the enemy soldiers who kept creepy silence and approached him, stopped him from attracting his enemies and gave him an attack order.
And the shooting simultaneously fills the square.
"" "" Huh!?
But the soldiers accidentally stop shooting at the unusual situation where the enemy, who was supposed to have been shot, keeps walking.
"... No way"
"... you're lying"
"... they are"
"" "Zombies!?
The soldiers of the 1st Battalion tremble at the Imperial Army soldiers who keep walking with a crazy laugh as they are shot.
"Mujar Hidean...... just like jihad jihadists then"
However, Zeke, who had experienced being in the Middle East, knew that the enemy was not a zombie.
"Muja...... what is that, Sergeant?
"Mujahideen, a warrior participating in the great cause of Islam."
"... so what makes you think that Muja and them are together?
"What, simply put - they're flying with kusuri, they are!!
So he throws up. Zeke gets high with drugs and destroys the head of an enemy soldier who has forgotten the fear of death with SCAR-H's 6.8 x 43 mm SPC bullet.
"Chi, not powerful enough!! Killing them would break bones if it wasn't 7.62mm ammo!!
The Imperial Army soldier who was shot in the head by Zeke took a couple of steps after his brain could play, kept walking but suddenly collapsed with a bump.
"Head!! Destroy the enemy soldier's head anyway!! They're rallies!! Putting a bullet in your body doesn't work!! That and the M2 shooter spreads the bullets!! 12.7mm would be my body but it would be my head but it doesn't matter!! You can mince enemies without asking questions!!
"" "" Roger!!
Hearing Zeke's advice, the soldiers of the 1st Battalion resumed their attack, stopping the enemy soldiers' feet in SCAR and “destroying” the enemy soldiers with an M2 machine gun.
However, the first battalion is forced to struggle with shell neurosis (shell shock) caused by artillery shells fired in the morning, and the number of soldiers sent to the battlefield as a result is high.
"Everybody get in the car!! We're heading to the castle now to rendezvous with Delta!!
Captain Kirby, who felt himself in danger to a boiling enemy, defeated or defeated, skips the order.
"- This is Captain Kirby!! What? Got it. Sergeant Bread!!
"What is it!?
Captain Kirby, who jumped on Hanvey, called in Zeke after exchanging radio exchanges with the command.
"Joy, the war has changed!! We are on our way to rescue the Wax Sergeants!!
"-... Got it!!
After repeated blinks a couple of times to Captain Kirby's words, Sieg replied with a crooked mouth and a loud voice.
"Let's go!! Bastards!! Help your people!!
"... that sergeant? Why are you suddenly on your way to the rescue?
Private Carlton inquired at Siege, who rode Hanvey and roared majestically toward the radio microphone.
"What, because the Nightstalkers are now able to pick up Delta thanks to the complete restoration of control by the Air Force. Yeah, and Captain Kirby was asking for close air support, and the AC-130's coming out."
"Ha? AC-130? We don't have a land base here, do we? Where are you flying from?
"... you didn't read the pre-distributed plan of operations, did you? Huh. What do you think I brought you here until I crushed four authorized Forrestal aircraft carriers for?"
"... Huh? No way?"
"Yes, the AC-130 is leaving from the aircraft carrier."
"Shh!?
Sieg laughed pleasantly. Private Carlton was surprised with his mouth wide open as his jaw had come off.
――――――――――――
Four Forrestal-class aircraft carriers roaming the waters fifty kilometres from Gloria - the CVA-59 "Forrestal" CVA-60 "Saratoga" CVA-61 "Ranger" CVA-62 "Independence" flight deck had one giant fuselage parked at a time.
"I didn't know we were going to be put into it from the first day of Gloria's landing..."
"Well, isn't that okay? Better than no show at all."
"Or so it is."
On board the AC-130U Spooky II, which was specially modified, the captain and deputy captain inspected the equipment while tapping each other lightly to prepare the ship for departure.
"Hydraulic system, OK. Auxiliary rocket system, OK. All systems all-green, ready to launch"
"All right, this is Witchbird 01. The ship is ready to launch. Request permission to depart."
And when the fuselage's launch ship was ready, the AC-130U just waited quietly for that time as it roared four engines.
"From the Forrestal Bridge, Witchbird 01. Allow ship to depart....... Good Luck '
"Witchbird 01, roger. We're going to launch more than this."
The captain returns a short reply and slowly pushes the throttle lever in when the departure permit drops from the 'Forrestal' bridge, which sails at full speed towards the wind at 34 knots of maximum speed.
Then the engine output rises and the roar of the engine increases over time.
However, the AC-130U cannot be launched because it bit the wheel stop and fixed the fuselage.
But that is also as planned.
"Engine output max!!
"Come on, let's go!!
When the engine's output reached its maximum, the captain sent a hand signal from a small window in the cockpit to the deck man, sending instructions to remove the wheel stop.
"Unwheel!!
When the instructed deck members shook down their arms, the deck members who were standing by as they shrunk themselves under the AC-130U fuselage simultaneously removed the wheel locks.
Then the fuselage slowly begins to run the 'Forrestal' flight deck, gradually accelerating.
"... not yet... not yet..."
In the rattling and rocking cockpit, the captain was timing it.
"... now!!
"Auxiliary rocket system activated!!
The moment he passed directly next to the bridge of the 'Forrestal', the captain screamed and the deputy captain pressed the activation switch of the auxiliary rocket system.
"Whoa!!
"Guh!!
When the auxiliary rocket system starts, the auxiliary rocket mounted on the rear of the fuselage bursts into flames, accelerating the fuselage at once, and an awesome G hits the captain and the deputy captain and pushes the two bodies into the cockpit.
"" Awwwww!!
The captain and the deputy captain pulled the joystick out of their minds when the 'Forrestal' flight deck cut five meters left while countering the attacking G.
"" Wow wow wow!!
Although the C-130 Hercules, with their high short-range take-off and landing performance, are only based and floated once, the GAU-12 25mm Gatling Gun, one 40mm Machine Gun, and one 105mm Howitzer are equipped with ammunition, fuel-laden fuselage heavily crashes towards the sea.
"Fall... Kanru ah!! Second auxiliary rocket ignition ah!!
"Ignite!!
Ignite the second auxiliary rocket, which was mounted as a spare, on the verge of the airframe landing in the sea.
As a result, the fuselage rises forcefully into the sky.
"Off the ship...... SUCCESS!! Success, Captain!!
"Phew. It was a little dangerous... you did it."
The captain, who took the altitude and was able to exhale in relief, was stroking his chest down in a ho.
"" "'Wow, wow, wow!!
'We're flying, we're flying!!
"... I thought I'd leak it"
'Oh, so am I. It was thrilling. "
"...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
"" "" "WEEEEEEEE!?
"What are you doing? The guys behind you... No, what happened to the rest of them more than that?
The captain, stunned by the silly noise on board, asked me back and asked the deputy captain.
"Ahhh... it looks like Witchbird 02 has also successfully left the ship... ah!? … Captain, Witchbird 03 has failed to disembark and landed… 04 is a success"
"Right..."
Unfortunately for Whitchbird 01 to wait for a bureaucratic plane that was supposed to come up in the sky later, Whitchbird 03, who attempted to leave the ship from CVA-61 "Ranger," failed to leave the ship and crashed.
"... well, three of the four planes just made it safely off the ship, but it's superior."
After watching a small boat flock to the crashed fuselage and desperate rescue efforts to rescue the Whitchbird 03 crew, the three AC-130Us flew in formation towards Gloria.
