This Game Is Too Realistic
Chapter 490: Extended fuselage and wingspan, canceled engine (1/2)
Most of the survivor settlements in the oasis are in a circular layout.
The main reason for this phenomenon is the miracle given by the Shahai spirit - most of the "river embankments" are circular.
In this case, the closer to the center, the wetter the climate.
Therefore, most of the royal nobles lived in the central area, and most of the important government agencies were set up here.
It is precisely because of this that the alliance does not need to carefully select the bombing area at all. It only needs to estimate the distance and height and throw the bomb as close to the target as possible.
As soon as the alliance airdropped leaflets, Falcon City's city defense chief Bofu ordered the evacuation of people in the central area of the city.
The troublesome thing is that their Majesty is unwilling to move, saying that he wants to sit on his throne until the war is won.
Anyone with a clear eye can see that they have lost this war.
But the adult didn't think so.
Until Myrdal met for the last time, his respected Majesty still stubbornly believed that as long as the Triumph City and Ideal City declared war, there would be war.
"His Majesty is unwilling to leave the palace. He has to wait for Prince William's triumphant return there... There is no other way. We must try our best to save the palace and we must not let a cannonball fall there."
After listening to the words of the captain of the Guards, the city defense officer Bo Fu frowned, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face.
"The target of the castle is too big... It is impossible for us to negotiate with our enemies and ask them to move His Majesty's court away from the bombing zone."
What's more, he didn't think that the enemy would honestly drop bombs in the areas drawn on the leaflets. Maybe it was a trick to massacre them together.
Therefore, he specially sent people to evacuate the civilians hiding in the "safe zone" and asked them to go to designated areas to avoid air strikes, or to stay at home honestly.
At least stay out of the way and get in the way.
Myrdal also knew that his request was embarrassing, but he had no other solution, so he could only sigh and said.
"Deploy a few more anti-aircraft guns near the castle."
With the firepower of anti-aircraft guns, at least it can avoid the dive bombing of tactical bombers. As for strategic bombers dropping bombs at high altitudes, it depends on luck.
No one can say where the bomb will land.
Bofur nodded solemnly.
"That's all it can do."
The Alliance built an airport near the town of Bicester, and it is said that a large number of propeller aircraft were deployed. Not surprisingly, the Alliance's bombers probably planned to take off from there.
In order to intercept the alliance's aircraft, their ace pilot Baron Arcante has led the First Aviation Squadron to the front line.
If the situation is optimistic, we should be able to intercept the alliance's bomber formation shortly after it takes off.
However, no one is optimistic about this.
After all, even the "Pe" jet fighter of the Wilantes was shot down by the Alliance. It would be a dream to seize air supremacy from the Alliance with just a few dozen "Eagle" fighter jets.
Just as Myrdal and Bofu were discussing which defense area to deploy anti-aircraft guns to His Majesty's Castle, a guard carrying a rifle trotted over.
"Report! Telegram from the front!"
Myrdal stepped forward, took the telegraph newspaper from the guard's hand, opened it and looked at it twice, frowning.
Noticing the change in his expression, Bofu stepped forward and asked.
"What's up?"
Myrdal handed him the telegraph newspaper in his hand and said at the same time.
"According to the news from the general headquarters, Griffin believes that the Alliance may send airborne troops to raid Falcon City, so we must be more vigilant. He has already coordinated the defense of the 20,000-strong team. If it's quick... we can [us] tomorrow. here."
"The 20,000th team...which 20,000th team is it?"
"Ours is the team that withdrew from Oasis No. 9."
Bofu's facial muscles twitched slightly and he couldn't help but say.
"What's the point of sending those people here...to show us how badly the Alliance beat them up?"
Those people were all remnant soldiers who had been withdrawn from Fenggrao City.
I heard that the number of more than 10,000 men was reduced to only 2,000. Ten teams of 1,000 men worked together for a long time, but they could not get together two full 1,000-man troops.
As for replacements...
There is no manpower left to fill it up.
Seeing that Myrdal didn't speak, Bofu continued.
"In my opinion, letting those guys come is better than expanding the scale of mobilization."
Myrdal shook his head.
"There is no extra manpower available... Even if we ask the women in the city to give birth to children immediately, it is too late now."
Those who could fight were sent to the front lines or labor camps, and social production almost completely stagnated.
In fact, even if the war ceases immediately, their economy is already ruined. They can barely hold on because they are still fighting.
Thinking of Wang Guoru's situation, both of them fell into silence.
Looking at Bofu who was silent, Myrdal patted him on the shoulder and reluctantly encouraged him.
"Don't worry too much... Even if the alliance has ideas about our king, it is impossible to cross the tens of thousands of troops on the border."
"At least we got to get through the night."
Although Griffin believed that the Alliance might use paratroopers to raid Falcon City, neither of them took the alarmism in the telegram seriously.
Airborne operations and air strikes are completely different things.
Even if the Alliance has gained air superiority, there are still five to six thousand soldiers and more than two to three hundred thousand residents in the heavily guarded Falcon City.
Even if airborne troops were to be dispatched, it would be unlikely to happen late.
We have to bomb for a few days anyway...
At this moment, Fang Yan in the east of the city suddenly sounded the air defense alarm.
The piercing alarm bell interrupted Myrdal's thoughts. He looked at the dark night sky in the east and frowned slightly.
"The Alliance plane has arrived?"
Bofu said nothing, but his mood sank to the bottom.
Alliance planes appeared in the royal capital, and it seemed that the First Air Squadron led by Baron Arcante had finally lost.
It's just...
Is this too fast?
He did not even receive any news of the exchange of fire between the air forces of both sides.
If the Alliance plane really took off from near the town of Bicester, wouldn't the troops stationed on the front line at least give him a warning?
At this time, a messenger came running in panic.
Before he could open his mouth to report, Bofu immediately caught him and asked.
"What's going on in the east?"
The messenger swallowed and said with a trembling voice.
"Steel, Steel Heart! That airship! Appeared directly east of us!"
Bofur was stunned.
The same goes for Myrdal standing next to him.
Looking at the panicked messenger, he quickly asked.
"Heart of Steel?! Are you sure it's Heart of Steel?"
"I'm sure!" The messenger nodded vigorously and said in a trembling voice, "More than one outpost has discovered it."
Multiple outposts witnessed it at the same time, so it seemed that there was no mistake.
Maybe the Iron Heart has already passed through the border of Oasis No. 2, and is only 200 miles away from the royal capital at most!
And it might actually be closer!
Bofu frowned, and there was a trace of solemnity between his brows.
"It seems they plan to send airships to bomb us..."
He had heard of the Iron Heart.
It is said that ordinary anti-aircraft guns have nothing to do with it.
However, such an aerial monster is not invulnerable. As long as you find a way to limit its mobility, even if you can't do anything about it for a while, you can still make it useless.
For example, a phalanx composed of balloons and steel cables is dropped on the path that the airship must pass...
A long time ago, Griffin ordered the establishment of two special "balloon troops" just to deal with that guy.
It's a pity that the Alliance has always been very cautious, never letting the airship go deep alone, but steadily following the attacking troops.
Why is this situation so unexpected?
"Send the airship to go deep alone...are they crazy?" Myrdal muttered, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Compared to command errors...
He is more attracted to the fact that this is an adventure that the other party intends.
…
Myrdal did guess one thing.
Uncharacteristically pushing the Iron Heart into the No. 2 Oasis was indeed a strategic risk deliberately planned by the alliance's top brass.
To Chu Guang's surprise, Griffin's reaction was a little faster than he expected. He had just penetrated into the No. 2 Oasis when he bumped into Griffin's "balloon." Array".
Balloons dragging steel wires rose from the ground at night, slowly passing through the clouds bathed in the tracer light falling from the sky.
These balloons are partitioned on the inside and have thin metal partitions on the outside. Even if they are hit by machine guns and high-explosive bombs, they will only be partially damaged, and the total lift can still be basically maintained.
If two balloons connected by steel cables are launched side by side, the blocking steel cables will be interconnected by thinner steel wires, forming a skirt-like steel cable curtain.
Although the crew of the Iron Heart discovered the situation on the ground immediately, it was too late to slow down and had to turn off the propeller to prevent the steel cable from getting entangled in the propeller.
Several balloons were like giant soap bubbles, clustered around the even larger soap, the Iron Heart.
The powered-off Iron Heart is still moving forward slowly under inertia, but the speed has been much slower. The propeller, fixed by the steel cable, creaked and trembled in the cold wind.
Looking at the balloon suspended outside the French bridge's floor-to-ceiling window, Chu Guang had an unexpected expression on his face, but it soon turned into a smile of approval.
"...Yes, I'll let you learn this trick."
In fact, during the Battle of Zuigu, using a dense balloon formation to capture the Iron Heart was originally one of the alliance command's alternative combat plans.
The low-speed balloon is enough to break through the deflector shield of the Iron Heart, and the steel wire suspended between the balloons can wrap around the propeller.
As long as the number of balloons is large enough, it will be difficult to make a timely turn or change speed to evade based on the maneuverability of the Iron Heart.
However, due to a series of reasons, this envisioned plan was ultimately not adopted.
The main reason was that time was tight and there was no time to prepare a sufficient number of air defense balloons before the Steel Heart evacuated.
Another reason is that all the balloon can do is make the Iron Heart lose its mobility. It can neither destroy it nor paralyze its firepower.
Compared with the price paid, the benefits gained are too limited!
Waiting for the airship to stabilize, Chu Guang looked away from the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the young man standing aside as the acting captain.
"Report damage."
After asking about the crew's situation, the acting captain arrived immediately.
"The propellers on both sides were entangled in the steel cables...but they were not broken!"
"How long will it take to repair it?"
"Within twelve hours!"
Twelve hours...
Chu Guang glanced at the map on the holographic screen, confirmed the distance from the current location to the royal capital, nodded slowly, and continued on.
"Drop the anchor chain!"
"In addition, let the carrier-based aircraft take off and cooperate with the artillery team to cover the deployment of the Storm Troops to the ground!"
The acting captain stood at attention and took the order.
"yes!"
Following Chu Guang's order, twenty W-2 attack planes took off from the deck, bypassing the balloons surrounding the airship, and threw flares into the airspace around the airship where enemy troops might be present.
At the same time, the heavy anchor chain fell heavily and hit the plain below the airship. After dragging for a while, the airship slowly stopped.
Under the guidance of the flares, the artillerymen in the airship's gun cabin quickly opened fire on the ground, unleashing ferocious firepower on the enemy troops who released the balloons.
Dozens of trucks were instantly covered with 155mm artillery fire and turned into scrap metal.
At the same time, the Storm Troops deployed to the ground in an orderly manner through the airship elevator, infiltrated into the hinterland of the Falcon Kingdom in company units, and began a combat operation codenamed "Punishment."
Although it was one hour earlier than expected, this small variable did not have any impact on the execution of the plan.
When formulating the plan, the Army Command had considered the situation of the airship losing its maneuverability, and even made plans for the airship to completely lose its combat capability.
Compared to the worst-case scenario, a delay of twelve hours and a deviation of more than ten kilometers are nothing to mention.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
At this moment, the Falcon Kingdom and the Legion most likely know nothing about the alliance's strategic intentions, and they only stay at the level of air strikes or raids on the royal capital.
Holding the handrail of the wall with both hands, McClun finally stabilized his body.
Although he was a little embarrassed due to the temporary turbulence, seeing his enemy deflated in front of him still made him feel as sweet as honey.
While he was gloating over his misfortune, he couldn't help but feel strangely angry.
"...Haha, even if you learn the tools of the Mingren, barbarians will still be barbarians after all. It's a shame you can think of it when you break away from the ground troops and go deep alone."
"oh?"
Chu Guang cast an unexpected glance at him.
Good guy.
So you know?
However, McClun obviously misunderstood something. He thought Chu Guang was surprised by the legion's methods, and the corners of his mouth turned up in pride, which made him even more unreasonable.
"...As long as Griffin is not a pig, he will definitely be wary of the airship you have. I thought you would put down the ground troops immediately after entering the No. 2 Oasis, but I didn't expect you to be nothing more than that."
"I admit that I was a little surprised. We all agreed that even if Griffin was prepared, it would be difficult to stop us before we got ten kilometers closer to the royal capital... As a result, his reaction speed was ten kilometers earlier than we expected. "How many men?"
Not paying attention to McClun's cynicism, Chu Guang paused for a moment, with a trace of disappointment on his face.
"But I'm still a little disappointed. I originally thought you had more surprising countermeasures... I didn't expect that your trump card turned out to be just a bunch of balloons."
The war is coming to an end anyway, so there's nothing wrong with testing the Legion's cards so that they can be prepared if conflicts arise again in the future.
He originally wanted to see what kind of trump cards Griffin had left for his Heart of Steel, but he didn't expect it to be a bunch of balloons.
It's no wonder he was so cautious before.
McClun blushed and obviously wanted to argue, but realized that this guy might be trying to trick him, so he held back.
"Ha... Do I need to use a very powerful weapon to deal with you? Once it loses its mobility, this thing will be a living target."
Chu Guang looked at him pretending to be surprised.
"So you know."
McClun was stunned for a moment and didn't react at first, but he soon came to his senses. His face visibly turned the color of liver, his lips trembled, and he was so angry that he couldn't say a word.
Admiring the wonderful change in his expression, Chu Guang teased him with a smile.
"I thought you had forgotten about Ruitani, but it turned out that I just didn't think of it for a while."
Finold couldn't bear to look away.
Being so humiliated by the enemy...
Is this guy really his General McClun?
Ignoring McClun, who was so angry that he lost his mind, Chu Guang turned his attention to the vast sea of balloons and clouds outside the bridge.
The Storm Troopers have completed their deployment.
Based on the intelligence collected by the Skeleton Corps from Bicester Town, they will destroy the main road network and industrial facilities in the Falcon Kingdom.
The Goblin Corps stationed in Bicester Town will cooperate with their actions. He has deployed a sufficient number of W-2 ground attack aircraft and one kilogram of aerial bombs there.
They are confident that they can destroy the Falcon Kingdom's industrial structure and infrastructure so that they will not be able to stand up within ten years and remember this lesson with their bodies.
As for the "air attack" on Falcon City.
He has handed over the alliance's strongest ace - the Burning Corps.
Those awakened ones who are all equipped with exoskeletons will deal a heavy blow to the soldiers who are short of supplies and can't even get a few automatic weapons to complete the final last blow of this war.
The corners of Chu Guang's lips curled up into a faint smile.
"Then it's up to you."
…
at the same time.
On the deck of the Heart of Steel, the cold air blew whooshing.
Looking at the strong wind sitting in the cockpit of the cabin, and then looking at the aircraft with only a windshield and even the hatch cover that could not be closed, Lao Bai, who was wearing a light cavalry exoskeleton, was stunned for a while, and then asked cautiously.㵙.
"Can you...can you?"
Holding the joystick, Guangfeng was stunned for a moment.
"What's okay?"
Lao Bai couldn't laugh or cry.
"No...brother, it's not that I don't believe you, I just want to ask...when will you learn to fly a plane?"
It doesn’t matter if a mosquito can fly a plane.
After all, that guy died so many times and fell so many times.
But you are an intellectual contestant who has never even touched an airplane. When will you be able to fly this thing? !
Bang Feng looked at Lao Bai who was still reluctant to come up with a puzzled look on his face, and after holding it in for a while, he asked again.
"When did I say I would do it?"
Lao Bai: "???"
Ye Shi, who was sitting in the machine gun position, interjected with a playful smile.
"Don't listen to the strong wind. We actually practiced it while you were away and flew it several times! This thing is really not as difficult as you think."
Lao Bai finally couldn't help but ask.
"How many times?"
The wind thought for a moment and replied.
"Three times there should be 㱕."
Lao Bai: "..."
"Believe me, brother," Kuang Feng gave a thumbs up and made a trustworthy expression, "It's a stable group!"
Facing those serious eyes, Lao Bai was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and stepped into the convertible cabin.
"Fine……"
The worst case scenario is a life.
He had saved the file before he came up, and he would be dead if he died. It was a pity that he only had this exoskeleton that cost 10,000 silver coins.
Looking at the simple layout of the cabin, Lao Bai always felt that something was wrong and asked cautiously.
"Is this caused by mosquitoes again?"
Kuang Fengyan said concisely and concisely.
"The W-1A is an improved version of the W-1. Now one aircraft can seat three people. According to actual tests, overloading is not a big problem. You may not know it in the rear, but we only came into contact with this thing in the past two days."
It turned out to be a W-1 modification.
No wonder they can come up with so many fights.
Lao Bai looked back at the dark place on the deck, and for some reason he was not surprised at all.
But the shape of these airplanes always gave him an ominous feeling.
Although he arrived at the front line a few days ago, he only boarded the Heart of Steel today. During this period of time, Kuang Feng has been serving as the acting corps commander, and Kuang Feng is naturally in charge of commanding this operation.
However, before the operation started, Lao Bai still read the mission briefing carefully.
Under the cover of the Goblin Corps, they will ride a glider to break through Falcon City's anti-aircraft firepower, land in the city together with air strikes and aerial bombs, and capture the Falcon City palace with the support of air units...
However, he originally thought that at least the pilots from the Goblin Corps would fly the transport plane to their destination, but he did not expect that they would have to drive the transport plane themselves.
Although he believed that Guangfeng would not trick him and his brothers would not joke about such a critical task, Lao Bai still asked cautiously.
"What exactly has been changed about this W-1A?"
Stormy replied casually.
"The fuselage and wingspan were extended, and the engines were eliminated."
"Oh..." The old man who didn't know much about airplanes nodded confusedly, but he quickly reacted, "Wait a minute, what the hell did you cancel?!"
Kuangfeng did not answer, but looked outside the cabin. Several of the beasts following the airship made an OK gesture.
"Good wind speed, ready to go!"
The Mengxin smiled and made the same OK gesture, then took out a lighter and lit the two forearm-thick rockets hanging on the back of the plane.
Hot tail flames spurted out, and the huge thrust pushed the light glider forward to accelerate. The shaking of the wings made Lao Bai's heart almost rise to his throat.
"What the hell?! Raimaru?!"
He would rather skydive than ride on this thing!
However, unlike him, Guangfeng's eyes were full of excitement at this moment, and his expressionless face flashed with a different kind of madness.
He has never done anything so exciting.
And still with my good brothers——
"Trust me, I've calculated... I can get there."
Pulling off the eyepiece on his helmet, he firmly grasped the joystick with both hands.
"Sit tight!"
