The wretched heir of the main god

"Don't let them over!"

The high-level military personnel on the main ship were all terrified. The image of Gemini Gundam showing off on the battlefield was still playing on the screen, and the high-level military personnel were all stunned by this new weapon.

Cruz, Alice, and Aslan’s pressure skyrocketed again in an instant, and they were locked in by all the air defense firepower available to the entire fleet. Even if they were ace pilots, they could not bear it. In the process of advancing from left to right to avoid attacks, three The movement of the machine body was significantly reduced.The mobile dragoon laser cannons released by the three aircraft, along with their mobile devices, cleared part of the Taishan's air defense firepower, but were also destroyed under the dense air defense barrage.

After all, this is a real world, and in front of a hedgehog-like air defense firepower net, unprotected mobile accompanying devices are too fragile.

"Our accompanying mobile device is still too big and the goal is too obvious, it must be improved."

Alice and Cruz sighed in their hearts at the same time.Without the accompanying mobile device, the dragoon laser cannon released will lose its charging settings and become a disposable item that can only run out of energy when it can only shoot six rounds.It's not that they can't get the rear support ship to release to see the new supplies accompanying the mobile device, but this will take time, and the current battlefield counts against every second, and there is no supplement in a short time.

"But even a few shots are enough!"

Seizing the last opportunity, the three Gemini Gundam pilots manipulated the Dragoon laser cannons and fired violently at the air defense firepower point of the Taishan air carrier.

Compared with professional air defense destroyers and cruisers, the air carrier's air defense firepower is not weak, but it is not much stronger.After more than 20 laser cannons fired recklessly and hundreds of rounds of shooting, the single-sided anti-aircraft firepower of the Taishan was completely damaged.

"Why is the barrage on the starboard side so thin? What is the gun controller doing?"

On the Taishan air carrier, Chang Kaishen's voice was roaring. With his naked eyes, he had seen a large number of enemy mobile suits appearing around the battleship.

However, the reply he got was: "80% of the starboard anti-aircraft guns were destroyed!"

Chang Kaishen: "Niang Xipi..."

At this time, more MS mechas passed them when the three fighters were set on fire, and used the three fighters to destroy the opportunity created by the starboard air defense firepower point of the Tarzan, and approached him.

Three mobile suits carrying anti-ship rockets approached the Taishan and fired three deadly heavy anti-ship rockets.

Three shining stars suddenly lit up behind the Gemini Star Gundam who was already in a state of separation.

A rocket directly hit the Taishan flagship control tower, and the flames that penetrated through the armor engulfed everyone in the control tower, including Chang Kaishen, who was vomiting "Niang Xipi".

The remaining two shots directly took the Taishan engine, completely destroyed its engine, and caused a series of subsequent explosions, and finally caused a violent explosion of the entire ship.

This is the largest tonnage ship destroyed by the Earth's combined fleet since the start of the war.

Looking at the immense mass around him, illuminating the entire void and exploding fire, everyone in the Earth United Army was sluggish for an instant, and everyone's heart was full of incredible.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Cruz and the others have withdrawn from the battlefield and returned to the supply ship.

Cruz ordered:

"The enemy doesn't have many MAs. When we go back this time, the weaponry will be replaced by a pair of ship equipment!"

The little flames in the sky are fading, and the Zaft MS troops that have completed the attack have actively retreated from the battlefield.

The Taishan space carrier that exploded into space fireworks has now become a wreck floating in the void.The space battlefield is different from the earth battlefield. There is no oxygen in space.After the battleship is destroyed, only a brief funeral flower will burst at the moment of destruction, and then everything will fall into silence.

On the destroyed Taishan, small lifeboats were launched from time to time. It was the lucky survivors on the ship who were escaping to save themselves.

In this round of attack, Zaft’s side lost two Xigu, three Genes, and more than a dozen mobile suits were damaged to varying degrees, but the result was a main aircraft carrier, a cruiser, and a destroyer.

Now retreat, just replenish and replace equipment, and then return to the battlefield.

When the Zaft Army Gemini Stars took the initiative to retreat after completing this offensive, the East Asian Republic side, the Huashan aircraft carrier automatically became the flagship of the East Asian Republic's fleet.

For the East Asian Republic, the destruction of the flagship of the fleet and the killing of the commander was an important turning point in this battle.

Chapter 44

On the Huashan, Yang Wenli was explaining his tactical planning basis to the "acting commander."

"First point: In terms of time, Zaft’s mobile suits are currently mainly anti-aircraft equipment. They are now replacing anti-ship equipment, which requires a lot of time. A straight line break away from the front, which seems dangerous, is actually the safest. Yes. The curve breaks away and consumes too much time, but it is the most dangerous!"

"The second point comes from a strategic point. Since the start of the war, Zaft has never stopped striving for peace with us. Even today when the Earth United declares war on Zaft, Zaft’s response has always been Declared war on the Atlantic Alliance. In its war preparation propaganda in the past year, the target has always been the Atlantic Alliance rather than the Earth Alliance. The enemy’s war goals are very clear."

"The third point is that we are facing the conflict and break away, leaving only 20 minutes for Zaft to attack our army. After 20 minutes, our army will rush behind the Zaft army, and with time Continue to get farther and farther away from its fleet. The goal of the Zaft army in this battle is to annihilate the main force of the Atlantic Alliance. Twenty minutes later, the direction of our army will be completely opposite to that of the Atlantic Alliance. It is for a main aircraft carrier. Give up the Seventh Fleet with six aircraft carriers. Zaft's fleet commander will not be so stupid. As for the division of troops to attack our army, the stuff in front is too big, they have to consider whether they can hold it!"

Within a minute, Yang Wenli gave three reasons.

"It turns out that you used the Atlantic Alliance fleet as a bait!"

Major General Lin Youde laughed. After listening to the explanation, he didn't even hesitate for a second. At the same time he issued the command "Take my ship as the flagship", he added another command: gather the whole army and make a straight breakthrough.

The march to leave the line was completely in accordance with Lieutenant Colonel Yang Wenli's proposal.

At this time, Zaft's fleet and the East Asian Republic's fleet, the battleship formations in the two fleets, became two opposing, almost parallel straight lines on the starry battle map.

These two parallel lines have a parallel distance of about 600 kilometers between them, and the two fleets are facing each other at a very high speed.

On the other hand, whether it is the European Union or the fleet of the Atlantic Alliance whose teammates are in a lagging position, their fleets are planning to make a curved turn and retreat.

"It's stupid!"

Lieutenant Colonel Yang Wenli sighed in his heart as he looked at the "friendship" style on the star map.

"Previously, Zaft’s mobile suits were all anti-aircraft equipment. Their next round of attack will definitely change a large number of paired ship equipment. The time for them to replace equipment is a chance to escape. Your seemingly safe approach is actually the worst choice. ."

At this time, Captain Lin Youde sighed from the side.

"The era of MA is over. From now on, space and air combat will be the era of MS."

On the other side, the Zaft MS unit, which had severely damaged the enemy MA fleet, was returning to the mothership in large numbers to receive supplies.

Major General Hawke, the aircraft carrier captain of the Nimitz of the Atlantic Alliance, once pointed out: The auxiliary aircraft carrier of the Zaft Army is essentially an MS transport ship. Although it can be modified to release MS in battle, it has a small internal space. , The equipment is incomplete, it is impossible to complete the task of quickly containing MS and battlefield maintenance in battle, and even the battlefield supply is very difficult.

His judgment is not wrong at all.

But one thing he neglected was that Zaft used a primitive stupid method to solve this problem.

The auxiliary aircraft carrier that is temporarily rebuilt by the transport ship cannot integrate the functions of transportation, recovery, maintenance, and replenishment. Then, disassemble this function and hand it over to another group of auxiliary maintenance ships.

Of the nearly 100 battleships launched from PLANT, there are only 38 dedicated warships. Among the remaining auxiliary warships, apart from the auxiliary aircraft carriers, there are a full 20 MS battlefield maintenance ships.

These maintenance ships are modified from space ore transport ships and have a wide, narrow and flat open-air platform.During the battle today, there were three mobile suit mechas lying head-to-foot, which also served as transportation functions. When the war started, the three mechas were released to participate in the war.

And this platform itself also comes with simple MS battlefield maintenance functions.

The MS injured in the battle does not need to return to the mothership, just fly to this platform and lie down on the dedicated "maintenance operating table". As long as it is not hit to the torso in the battle, it is just wounded and destroyed. Parts of the limbs.The automatic maintenance equipment on the platform will directly remove the injured hands, feet, limbs and head.Since everything is automated by machines, even if it is to disassemble and replace the most complicated head or thigh, the whole process takes only ten minutes.

Compared with the inconvenient maintenance of the integrated MA, the unique "human limb structure" and modular design of MS greatly facilitates the supply of battlefields and makes it possible to maintain mechanical automation in a vacuum.

Of course, if the torso is severely damaged, or the torso has a mechanical failure, you can only go back to the mothership or enter the internal compartment of the professional repair ship for maintenance.

As for ammunition supply, Zaft’s fleet also has MS ammunition supply ships transformed from civilian ships.The MS that has run out of ammunition does not need to bother to fly back to the aircraft carrier for replenishment. Just get close to the ammunition supply ship and dock the MS mecha on the ammunition supply rack named "Iron Maiden". In five minutes, the relevant machine will be ready. Complete the comprehensive supply from ammunition to charging, very efficient.

A supply ship transformed from a civilian ship with four sets of "Iron Maiden" supply equipment, which can simultaneously supply four mobile suits on the battlefield.
