Chapter 1347: Cutting off the retreat route, Ilxia defense operation (5)

In Gundam's worldview (referring to the Universal Century), the most buggy thing is not the humanoid mecha, but the nuclear fusion reactor that supports the activities of these weapons.

Not only is it nuclear fusion, which is considered to be an unlimited energy source, it even gets rid of the need to boil water and directly converts nuclear energy into electrical energy.

The statement of unlimited energy is an exaggeration. It is true that its endurance is outstanding, but there is a limit to the energy that can be output in a short period of time.

Just like the energy storage pool on a battleship, the output energy will also be stored in the battery to ensure a continuous supply of energy. If a large amount of energy is consumed in an instant, a low energy prompt will naturally appear.

Moreover, this shot also successfully drew the attention of the enemy aircraft group to Li Chengxi.

No matter how good Li Chengxi is at fighting, he can't withstand hundreds of fighter planes, and he can't do that even with a Wushuang.

So he made a very smart choice...

Well, retreat.

"We can't retreat casually, or the battle line will collapse!"

"The war is for others, but your life is your own, or do you want me to use a nuclear bomb?"

Li Chengxi never thought that he was a soldier of the Xuanshui Federation. He just came here to have fun. If the situation was not favorable, he would leave without hesitation. He was very decisive.

When Hall heard the word nuclear bomb, he chose to follow Li Chengxi obediently.

After all, it is difficult to tell whether Li Chengxi was joking or not, and judging from his usual behavior, he really would use the weapon he said he would use if it was enough to blow up a military port in the space fortress Ilsha.

But this is not actually selling out teammates. When Li Chengxi arrived, there was already a group of friendly troops forming a team in the rear, forming a new line of defense.

The two had just joined up with friendly forces when the enemy was almost catching up.

Now it was a complete mess. Hall followed Li Chengxi closely. It might sound a bit useless, but Hall followed Li Chengxi so closely because he felt that he might not be sure of surviving an air battle of this scale. Staying next to Li Chengxi would give him a higher safety factor.

After all, she was not a soldier of the Xuanshui Federation. She was employed by Alyssa, and the documents showed that she was just fighting as a mercenary.

The two specifically targeted the enemy's weak points, especially those that were trying to bite friendly forces and had no defenses against enemy aircraft behind them.

Li Chengxi is not afraid of head-on confrontation, but he is very smart and cunning on the battlefield. He never tries to win by relying on technology, but instead seizes the opponent's weakness and attacks them to death.

This is not a martial arts competition, nor is it the Storm Kingdom's magic mecha competition. The most efficient way to eliminate the enemy on the battlefield is to be despicable.

Only by being alive can you have output. I can spank your butt, why should I take your punch?

So even though Li Chengxi's aircraft specifications are far beyond those of ordinary space fighters, he always chooses to launch sneak attacks and rarely engages in head-on confrontations.

In addition, although the Red Maple Republic has a large number of pilots, their quality...

It’s really hard to put it into words.

Up to now in the war, both sides have suffered heavy losses in pilots. Not to mention skilled and excellent pilots, even serious talents like Hall who graduated from aviation schools are in great short supply.

Many pilots are quickly trained. If they can survive on the battlefield, they can become veterans. If they cannot, they will just be used as cannon fodder.

There is almost no possibility of resistance when facing Li Chengxi, who never plays by the rules, loves sneak attacks, and has overwhelming superior machine performance and technology.

Li Chengxi felt like he was shooting at a fixed target. Many pilots noticed that someone was following them, but they just kept speeding up and didn't know how to take evasive action. However, the second line of defense of the Xuanshui Federation was not held up by Li Chengxi, but because the distance was shortened, the anti-aircraft guns were more accurate, and the number of pilots taking off in the second wave was greater than that of the first wave, so the stalemate could be maintained.

But this is only temporary, because the second wave of aircraft from the Red Maple Republic has also arrived.

And the situation is different from before.

"That's a magical mecha!"

That’s right, the second wave of aircraft was a flying brigade composed entirely of magic mechas.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

"The second wave of enemy aircraft is approaching. Our pilots may not be able to resist it."

"Report, the anti-aircraft gunner has visually confirmed that the enemy's second wave of aircraft are magic mechas, not space fighters."

After An Yun finished speaking, everyone looked at Villania.

The latter thought about it:

"Maybe the Storm Kingdom sold a batch of arms? From what I know, the upper echelons don't have much good feelings towards the Red Maple Republic, but it's impossible not to make money."

This is where the complexity of war lies. Although it looks like two countries are fighting, in fact many surrounding countries are not just watching the fun.

Magic mecha is not a new thing. The reason why it has not been considered before is that the technology of various countries is not mature enough, and using it to replace carrier-based aircraft requires rebuilding the production line, which is too troublesome.

Moreover, with their immature technology, they were unable to accurately assess the combat effectiveness of the magic mecha.

As a result, the army was weak and had to find another way. The Storm Kingdom, which always had a strong paranoia and tried every means to maintain its technological lead, took the lead in starting the practical use of magic mechas.

Of course, the fact that the Storm Kingdom was going to replace its carrier-based aircraft with magic mechas could not be concealed, and it had already spread throughout the Star Alliance.

Some countries are still waiting and watching, while some countries are gloating and waiting to see the joke, but for the big countries, since the Storm Kingdom wants to equip the army, it means that the magic mecha does have advantages, so they have also started the technical verification work.

However, different countries have different technical routes, resulting in some differences in the verification results.

The Red Maple Republic believes that the cost of an 18-meter-high magic mecha is higher than that of a carrier-based aircraft. Although it has strong capabilities, it is not suitable for large-scale military equipment. Therefore, their magic mecha has a 6-meter-high scaled-down version, which is mainly used by the police and armed police forces, or the ground army, as squad-level support firepower.

The reaction of the Xuanshui Federation was even slower. When the war broke out, the magic mechas were still just a technology verification project and had not been truly mass-produced at all.

At this point in the war, the loss of equipment on both sides is secondary; the loss of personnel is the most fatal.

After all, it is no longer an era where you can go to the battlefield just by giving yourself a gun. The most troublesome thing is how to quickly replenish the extremely expendable pilots and quickly form combat effectiveness.

The magic mecha is easy to drive. It only takes ten minutes of training to be able to drive it normally. One week of training is enough to fill the battlefield. This advantage has become a great advantage in a long war.

It is not difficult to understand why the Red Maple Republic would purchase a batch of magic mechas from the Storm Kingdom to fill the gap. The Storm Kingdom certainly does not mind someone buying their arms. While sharing the cost of replacing the troops, it can also make a lot of money.

The Storm Kingdom's attitude in this war is neutral. And it's not the kind of neutrality that means not helping anyone, but the kind of neutrality that means I will sell things to anyone who asks me to buy something.

That's true, but it's also true that the appearance of magic mecha has made the situation on the front line even worse.
