The Plane War Begins from Wandering Earth

Chapter 199 198. Don’t Eat Sour Radish

"Don't eat the sour radish!"

When the English front-line commander saw the "Scavenger" landing on the English side, his face turned green and he burst into swearing.

At first, when the French's firepower delivery to the "Scavengers" was interrupted, the English front-line commander was only a little confused.

The response he got was that Frankie claimed there was a problem with their internal military communications system.

The commander of the English front was still laughing in his heart at the unreliability of these Gallic sick chickens.

However, it was not until the "scavenger" was attracted by the continuous firepower output of his own side that he realized that the French chicken had sold them to England.

The "scavenger" weighing more than 2,000 tons was like a bulldozer after landing on the shore, leaving no grass wherever it went.

The tanks and armored forces on the ground were like plastic toys in front of it and were easily crushed and stepped on.

"Hold on! You must hold on!

London is behind us!"

The roar of the front-line commander echoed in the command center.

The moment the "Scavenger" landed, the "Battle of London" had already begun.

The subordinate officers promised to defend London to the death, and their response calmed the front-line commander a little.

However, Kaiju's actions are not affected by human will.

No matter how determined the ground troops and fighter formations resisted, they could not stop the advance of the "Scavenger".

Just 43 minutes after the "Scavengers" landed, the first defeated troops began to appear.

And when the front-line commander angrily questioned the officers of this unit.

The answer they got was that it was a right granted to them by the Constitution that when encountering force majeure on the battlefield and facing a battle where they had no chance of winning, English soldiers could choose to surrender with dignity.

"Damn it, there's an alien monster across from us, who are you going to surrender to?"

"So we retreated."

"You are not retreating! That is a rout!
See you in court-martial!"

"Then I'll see you in court-martial.

By the way, I hope you can survive this doomed battle, sir."

His own subordinates would rather accept the verdict of a military court after the war than launch a charge against the "scavengers" in battle.

The commander at the front suddenly felt a strong sense of powerlessness.

Now all he could do was pray.

Then the "scavengers" officially entered the London metropolitan area.

Unlike the Pacific Rim region, tens of millions of people in the London metropolitan area did not receive any early warning of the Kaiju's attack.

In fact, those of them who were in Europe had never thought that the day would come when their city would be attacked by alien monsters.

Population transfer in super-large modern cities is a long-standing problem.

Even with early warning systems, large cities around the Pacific Rim may not be able to successfully evacuate everyone.

Not to mention the London metropolitan area which has enjoyed peace for a long time.

The roads and streets are jammed with traffic and crowded with people.

Londoners who wanted to evacuate with their families were all stuck in the city’s cramped roads.

When the "scavengers" approached London, the citizens no longer cared about their property and luggage and began to flee in panic across the city.

Millions of crowded people, under the influence of panic, soon caused a large-scale stampede.

Countless people were trampled, suffocated, disabled or even killed. They did not even get to see the "scavengers" with their own eyes, but became the casualties of the "London Kaiju Attack" in advance.

In the end, even the Thames River became a refuge for fleeing citizens.

Hundreds of thousands of desperate citizens jumped into the slightly smelly river.

Countless moving heads were floating on the river, densely packed and looking quite scary.

After the chaos in the London metropolitan area lasted for half an hour, the "scavengers" finally arrived in the city.

It was like a brutal bulldozer, and the tall buildings along the way collapsed and were destroyed under its impact.

The screaming and panicking crowds on the streets were trampled and crushed without any protection. The most ironic thing is that only a few thousand citizens died directly under the trampling of the "scavengers".

Hundreds of thousands of citizens were buried under the rubble of collapsed buildings, some trampled on each other and suffocated, some jumped into the river and drowned, and some were hit by the rubble of collapsed buildings.

Screams, panic, smoke and dust, fires everywhere...

The city of London is now like hell on earth, causing great despair.

After the "Scavenger" appeared in the English Channel, the coalition government soon received requests for help from Europe.

It's not just England that's currently under attack.

Officials in many European regions, including France and Belgium, are frantically asking the coalition government for help.

They are not yet mentally prepared to use strategic nuclear weapons against densely populated cities.

Therefore, we can only place our hopes on the Pacific Rim region, which has rich practical experience in dealing with Kaiju.

"I'm sorry, we were also surprised that the 'Scavenger' appeared in Europe.

We are currently working with PPDC to assess the security situation in Europe.

Considering that Europe has already decoupled from the Pacific Rim region.

In this case, mobilizing giant mechas across regions may violate relevant treaties..."

The coalition government spokesman's series of formulaic responses made Europe regret its decision.

It was Europe that insisted on "decoupling" in the first place, so it is a bit inappropriate to seek help from the Pacific Rim region now.

However, the threat of the "scavenger" is imminent. In order to solve this problem as soon as possible, Europe has to announce the resumption of economic support for PPDC and completely abandon the original "decoupling" agreement.

Europe even expressed its willingness to give up some of its national sovereignty interests in exchange for a coalition government and the stationing of ppdc-related giant mechas.

The details of a series of political, economic, military and technological treaties are still being debated and negotiated.

After seeing the sincerity of the European region, the support of the coalition government and PPDC was officially implemented.

The support of the United Government was four drone mechas, two octopuses, one giant crab and one salamander.

On the ppdc side, Marshal Stek sent out his strongest force: the Dangerous Wanderer piloted by Liu Qi.

Considering the distance between the Pacific Rim and Europe, all five mechas were transported by the United Government's space pod spacecraft.

By the time the reinforcements were assembled, hoisted, and finally sailed over Europe, it was more than ten hours later.

During this period, in order to prevent the destruction of the "Scavenger", the British military even used a small-yield tactical nuclear bomb to attack.

Unfortunately, it only injured the "Scavenger".

On the contrary, the shock wave and thermal radiation from the nuclear bomb explosion caused the deaths and injuries of hundreds of thousands of people trapped in the city.

Amid countless people's abuse of the military and their anticipation for giant mechas to come to support them.

Five mechas belonging to the Pacific Rim region successfully landed in downtown London.

The crackdown on the Scavengers was no different from other Kaiju attacks that had occurred in the Pacific Rim.

Two "Octopus" restrict the actions of the "Scavenger".

The "Giant Crab" and the "Salamander" attacked the "Scavenger" while distracting its attention.

Finally, the "Dangerous Wanderer" rode on the back of the "Scavenger" and used the chainsaw sword made of tungsten steel alloy to pierce the opponent's body and complete the fatal blow.

The entire encirclement and suppression process was smooth and easy with the cooperation of four unmanned mechas.

The "scavenger" is like an angry bull being teased by a bullfighter, only caring about the head and not the butt.

Under the siege of the enemy, he finally fell to the ground covered with wounds.

The "scavenger" died, but the damage it caused was far from over.

The rescue operation in the "London Kaiju Attack Incident" is still underway.

England and France are still arguing over the issue of "the agreed firepower output was interrupted, resulting in the Kaiju landing on the English mainland."

People throughout Europe seemed to have awakened and began to frantically criticize the government's previous policy of "decoupling" from the Pacific Rim region and closing the country to the outside world.

The situation is moving in the direction that the coalition government had expected.
