Flames descend from the sky like falling stars.

When that murderous landing craft dragged a dark blue arc over the city of Tiangong, everyone looking up at the dome opened their eyes at the same time, attracting all their attention by the glowing fire.

The same questions are echoed in the minds of all.

What is that fire, exactly?

The observation deck of the central tower.

In the closest landmark building to the center of the dome, no unusual visitors were noticed pointing their fingers at the glittering light in the sky.

“What's that? ”

“Probably a meteor...”

“There seems to be more than one! They're coming towards us! ”

“Where's our urban defense system? What are those militias eating? Let the meteorite cross the station! ”

“Something's wrong, those things don't look like meteors...”

“What's that? ”

“Looks like an orbital airborne brigade... remember the Alpha virus incident? When I went on a trip to Guangdong City last year, I happened to encounter a rebellion of biomimics. I had the privilege of seeing them once...”

Militia groups loyal to the city hall have reacted at the first moment as attention has gradually been captured by the light that has appeared in the air.

The city's defense system, located on the edge of Tiangong City, was activated and the near-air electromagnetic cannon was slowly pushed to the surface as the alloy baffles buried beneath the sand dunes moved sideways.

But before that thick, solid plasma filled the cannon chamber, that electromagnetic cannon tube pointing to the sky was torn to pieces by mass bullets falling from the sky.

Three rounds of gunfire fell like rain, destroying the entire city defense system deployed outside Tiangong City.

In fact, this cannot be blamed on the incompetence of the Tiangong City militias, mainly because the urban defense system itself is designed to destroy large meteorites. Faced with the suppression of cruiser-class fire such as the Qinling, this range does not reach the near-defense artillery surrounding the orbit, only the portion of the human head can be delivered.

Little effective resistance was encountered, and the landing craft of the third track airborne brigade was rapidly deployed behind the sand dunes on the east side of the city of Tiangong, with less thunder than it could hear.

Immediately afterwards, led by Li Gaoling, a group of Marine soldiers armed with exoskeleton armor to their teeth came out of the landing craft and launched an attack on Tiangong City under the cover of a small drone.

War, trigger!

Militia groups that arrived in a hurry attempted to counter defenses based on topographical advantages, but remained defenceless in the face of the fierce fire of the third track airborne brigade.

Even if they had heavy weapon support such as electromagnetic tanks, they would not be able to recover a tiny bit of advantage in the crossfire of the junior soldiers.

The gap between the two sides is more than a point and a half.

In training, in morale!

At the same time, the streets of Tiangong City were completely plunged into chaos. Although the war has not yet burned here, anyone knows that sooner or later.

If half a minute ago someone naively thought that the light falling down that road was a meteor or some other natural phenomenon, hardly anyone would have thought so by now.

Whether it's the sporadic flames, the guns and forest showers passing through the traffic pipeline, or the roadblock bunkers being overthrown, the same thing --

That's war!

To be honest, most people are misty about this sudden war.

Even separatist adherents had never thought that the day would come so quickly and so suddenly that even a little bit of preparation time was left to them.

Following the normal process, they should first show “evidence” of pan-Asian cooperation on television, then take a few photos of the capture, and finally mobilize citizens to join the army on the grounds that pan-Asian cooperation is trying to outlaw the tradition of colonial autonomy...

However, all these steps seem to have been omitted, as five minutes ago their mayor drafted a “declaration of independence" and then announced the fait accompli of the state of war in the city of Tiangong, while officially declaring war on the Patriotic Nation.

Like…

It was the same idea to slap your head temporarily.

Underground air defense holes in the residential area of Tiangong City.

Originally used as a shelter from natural disasters such as meteorites, the site has been opened for the shelter of nearby citizens, and no one has expected that one day it will be used as a safe haven from the fighting.

Less than 10 minutes before the landing of the orbital airborne brigade, a long line had been set up at the entrance to the shelter.

The gunfire from afar prompted the team to move forward. Everyone's face was filled with unsettled and frightened expressions. They looked around nervously and feared that stray bullets would fly here.

“Are we… independent? ”

“It seems so… so what's our name? Mars League? ”

“Damn... what exactly happened these past few days? Wasn't everything okay yesterday? What a sudden fight! I have two days to go back to Jinling, why involve me in this stupid farce! ”

“Crazy, it's crazy! ”

The chaos is not only in the streets of Tiangong City, but also in the city hall located in the central area of Tiangong City.

In less than thirty seconds, the urban defense system around Tiangong City was destroyed instantly, and even before a single shell could be fired, it was torn to pieces by the guns in the sky.

Before they could even open a bottle of champagne and celebrate the departure from pan-Asian cooperation, they had to face a brutal reality -

They're facing a third orbit airborne brigade!

Ace of the Pan-Asian Sky Marine Ace!

“Damn... where did those guys come from!” His hands slapped hard on the table, looking at the falling areas of the holographic map, his face filled with tension.

Persistent casualties have brought the militia morale to the bottom of the valley, with an increasing number of soldiers fleeing and throwing away their weapons and equipment and fleeing the security zone pretending to be civilians.

Knowing that there were ten times more than the opposite number, even with the support of armoured troops, Xue Hong was still beaten up like this, and did not know whether he should curse the commander of the militia or his mother.

“The Qin Ling... is the Qin Ling!” Quickly walked into the office, Gao Ruiyi said softly, "A message just came from the observatory that the Qin Ling has hijacked our space station in orbit and just destroyed our urban defense system… it is their guns! ”

Xiao Hong: “Where is our fleet? ”

"The Allied First Fleet has departed from the port of the asteroid belt and is expected to reach Mars orbit tomorrow! ”

“Tomorrow!” Xiao Hongton couldn't bear to spray, the spit stars raging, “you mean, we have to let them point their guns at us all day?! ”

“What can I do! What's wrong with being mad at me?” I got caught up in this before and after I was busy, and Gao Ruimington got angry, "I told you to put the ark under house arrest directly and force him to hand over the warp speed engine technology, and you had to listen, and make me look like I was in control! See for yourself what you've done with a good hand now! ”

Xiao Honghong stared at his staff with a stunned look on his face.

He could not believe that this man dared speak to himself in that tone.

Knowing that his emotions were a little out of control, Gao Ruiming took a deep breath and adjusted his emotions immediately said.

“It is now imperative to call on our allies for help. ”

Xiao Hong immediately said, “You mean the other colonial cities? Those guys who see the wind and rudder can't help us! ”

“They must help us, and they will help us! Otherwise, you think the Allies are defeated, you think you're waiting for what happens to them? It's not about saving us, it's about saving themselves!” Staring dead at Xiao Hong, Gao Ruiming put his hands on the desk and said with unprecedented momentum, "Not only allies, but also mercenary groups that can be reached. No matter how expensive they are, promise everything we can afford! ”

“Of course, don't forget to ask them to think about it before they ask, who has been tolerating them and who has turned a blind eye to their business! ”
