The Plane War Begins from Wandering Earth

Chapter 148 147. British Isles
The defeat of the ground forces on the North American continent forced Quintessa to shift the focus of the battlefield to other areas on the earth.

During the "Cybertron Invasion" war, Quintessa inflicted a devastating blow to the United Government forces in the second place with only five Cybertron spaceships.

However, several years later, when Quintessa encountered the United Government Army again in her own source plane, the opponent's war mobilization scale, cutting-edge tactics, and the number of strategic weapons had all achieved a qualitative leap.

The nanoworm warheads, which were originally complicated and difficult to manufacture, have been able to be mass-produced industrially in just four or five years.

It has even reached the point where it can be equipped to tens of millions of main force soldiers of the United Nations government forces, becoming their standard individual equipment.

As always, Quintessa was disdainful of the weak individual combat capabilities of human warriors.

It always believed that only Transformers like Cybertron were the most perfect life forms in the universe.

But at the same time, it also has to admit that human civilization, at least the UEG human joint government from another dimension, has refreshed its understanding of carbon-based life civilization.

Among the countless cosmic civilizations it had conquered before, most carbon-based life civilizations relied on flesh and blood and brute force to try to stop the primitive life of Cybertron.

Use wisdom, summarize the laws of natural science, and then use machines and external forces.

These are often exclusive to silicon-based mechanical life civilizations.

Quintessa had never thought that carbon-based life civilization could possess such powerful military and technological capabilities as the Cybertronians.

Unfortunately, Cybertron civilization is no longer what it used to be.

Quintessa did not continue to reminisce. In fact, if the Cybertron civilization had not declined so much, it would not have been her turn to steal and become the leader of the Cybertronians.

At the same time, the main force of the Cybertron army - the Cybertron battleships gathered over the North American continent.

As many as 3,600 airships also flew to various parts of the world.

Quintessa tried to use these airships to disperse the main forces of the United Government Army, thereby alleviating the "encirclement" faced by the Cybertron battleship cluster.

Asia, Europe, South America, Oceania...

All places with human settlements will become targets of Cybertron's airships.

The energy shield on the Cybertron battleship can ignore all human long-range attack methods.

Equipped with EMP weapons, dense close-in defense guns and ship-borne Decepticon firepower strikes, it can also prevent surprise attacks including drone swarms and mechanical ship-attack equipment.

Only the elite soldiers of the United Government who have received the [Blessing of Popular Election] and possess strong combat experience and physical fitness can have a chance of a successful raid.

On the other hand, the situation in ground combat was completely the opposite.

When the production of nanoworm warheads is no longer restricted, the strong "physical fitness" of Cybertron's mechanical life forms is becoming less and less advantageous in front of the United Government forces.

No matter how numerous the transformable metal cannon fodder army is, or how tall the Decepticon warriors are, they will all be defeated by the nanoworm warheads.

A medium-sized nanoworm warhead can eliminate a massive cluster of millions of deformed metal armies.

Even the members of the Decepticon elite team could not withstand the close-range release of the nanoworm micro-warheads.

After the initial encounters, the soldiers of the United Government Army became more and more inclined to use simple and crude weapons such as nanoworm warheads to resolve battles.

The main force, equipped with a large number of nanoworm warheads, gradually began to push back the Cybertron army on the North American continent.

The United Government Forces are temporarily unable to do anything to the Cybertron battleship cluster.

The high-altitude strikes of the Cybertron battleship cluster were unable to cause fatal damage to the main force of the United Government Army.

The two sides are temporarily in a stalemate in the North American theater.

In order to seek a turning point on the battlefield, both sides spread the war to other war zones.

More than 1.2 Cybertron airships have just landed around the world, and the United Government Army's reserve forces, as many as million second-line main forces, immediately rushed to battlefields around the world.

Cooperating with the more numerous indigenous troops from the three dimensions, they launched a comprehensive massacre of the Cybertronians on a global scale.

Western Europe, British Isles theater of operations.

The second plane belongs to Gust's private military group and is also asked to participate in the battles in the Transformers plane.

The Eastern European coalition forces where "Lucky Boy" Peter was located were split into hundreds of small teams of various sizes. After entering the Transformers dimension, they were assigned to the British Isles war zone.

Due to his outstanding performance in the "Cybertron Invasion" operation, Peter was appointed captain of his action team.

This is used as an example of the coalition government forces' positive propaganda against the indigenous groups.

However, considering Peter's experience of "changing career halfway", the Gust Regiment only let him serve as the captain of a team of ten people.

He was also equipped with a veteran assistant.

Ensure that Peter's unprofessional combat qualities will not cause any negative impact on the battlefield.

The deputy is named Cooper, nicknamed "Sergeant Major". He is the only veteran in the team with five years of battlefield experience. He once served in the first North American official force, and later joined the Gust Regiment until now.

Although he has not achieved any earth-shattering combat performance, the fact that he has survived many dimensional wars with all his limbs intact is enough to prove his professionalism.

The military doctor, Medic Billy, is called "Vet" by everyone in the team.

The reason was that after a dinner party, Billy accidentally revealed his experience before joining the army.

In order to participate in the conscription of the second dimension, he fabricated his identity as a doctor. In fact, he only worked as a part-time veterinarian on the farm for a few days, helping the farmer castrate farm animals. The most common items in the medical box of "veterinarian" Billy are medical needles and vodka.

'There's nothing a shot of vodka can't fix.'

This is the wise saying of the "veterinarian", but surprisingly, the team members gave it a highly positive evaluation.

Adrenaline-based treatment injections can indeed provide immediate results for injured soldiers on the battlefield.

More importantly, Vet Billy's was the only place in the barracks where alcohol could be legally served.

God knows how he replaced "medical alcohol" with vodka.

In an Eastern European team that has to take a bite every day, "Veterinarian" Billy is simply the most popular figure in the team.

The final member is "Baguette" Renault, the only non-Eastern European member of the team.

When everyone knew that Renault was of French descent, everyone agreed to let him be responsible for cooking.

The so-called cooking is actually just mixing a pile of individual soldier's dry rations with water and cooking them in a simple marching pot.

Renault kept complaining to his comrades that his cooking skills were severely limited by the ingredients and the environment. When the war was over and he had saved enough money, he would go to his hometown of Marseille to open a bakery. He inherited the secret recipe of making baguettes from his grandmother.

From then on, everyone in the team called him "Baguette".

When the team first arrived at the third plane, it had a full complement of ten people.

However, after encircling the Cybertron airships in the British Isles war zone, more than half of the ten-man team were killed, leaving only four of them.

As the captain, Billy has always blamed himself, thinking that as a "lucky boy", he has not brought any good luck to his teammates.

But the surviving members of the team were quite open-minded about it.

Compared to those small teams that were easily destroyed, they were already quite lucky.

"Be alert! There are traces of fighting ahead!"

When they arrived at a remote farm on the outskirts of London, the "Sergeant Major" leading the team discovered the destroyed farm machinery and smoking barn on the farm, and immediately put everyone on alert.

"Can we contact headquarters?"

"There's nothing we can do. We still can't receive the signal. Those Cybertronians must have used some weapon to block electromagnetic wave signals."

"Where's the radio? Are there any friendly troops around?"

Hearing "Baguette" Renault ask this, "Veterinarian" Billy still shook his head.

"What should we do? What if there is a Decepticon inside? Wouldn't our team be wiped out on the spot?"

"Baguette" was still complaining, but Captain Peter and "Sergeant Major" Cooper on the other side had already waved to signal the two to follow them, and they were going to start searching the farm.

After exploring the area surrounding the farm and confirming that there were no living "Cybertron scum" present, the four of them cautiously entered the farm.

Inside the half-destroyed barn, there was a crashed Cybertron military aircraft and a Decepticon that had been decomposed by nanoworm warheads, leaving only a few metal shells.

Not far away, there were the bodies of five coalition government soldiers.

It was already clear that this United Government Forces team was sent to deal with the crashed Cybertron military aircraft.

In the end, five United Government soldiers paid the price with their lives and died together with the Decepticon.

“It should be the fighter plane on the floating airship in London.

This battle probably took place less than two days ago.”

The "Sergeant Major" made his own judgment based on the surrounding battlefield environment.

After all, a dead Cybertronian is better than a living one.

After the battlefield alert was lifted, "Baguette" and "Veterinarian" found some food in the barn and other places on the farm, a few eggs, bacon, and some dairy products that were about to expire.

Just as the two men came excitedly to report the good news, thinking that they could finally have a big meal, they discovered that Captain Peter was digging a pit for the dead coalition government soldiers.

"This isn't one of our comrades. If I die in battle, I won't bother you digging a hole for me..."

"Why don't you finish your meal first?"

The sense of identification with the United Government among the natives of other dimensions is far less than that among the wandering people.

Many people joined the coalition government forces not for some illusory "community with a shared future for mankind", but simply for the salary and the desire to live a better life.

Peter ignored the calls of his two companions and continued swinging the shovel.

Others may remain indifferent, but he cannot. If it were not for the coalition government, he would probably still be serving his sentence in prison.

The "sergeant major" on the side didn't say anything, but joined in with a shovel.

"Baguette" and "Veterinarian" looked at each other, and without further ado, stepped forward to help lift the body.
