Metal Ranger of the Endless Plane

As mentioned before, the northern end of this mountain range is 100 kilometers away from the Atlantic Mehekou Bay in the north. Therefore, at the northern end of the mountain range and further north, it is no longer a mountainous landform, but a long and narrow plain adjoining the coastline.

However, because the moisture brought by ocean currents and trade winds will be left behind by the mountains, this long and narrow plain is actually a rainforest with abundant vegetation.

In later generations, this long and narrow area basically belonged to the state of Veracruz. The position of the latter on the Maiheikou carp is probably in front of the tail and the back waist of the fish.

The Olmec ruins where Lu Yuan has been to many times, that is, the town of La Venta and even the area of ​​San Lorenzo in later generations, are near the border between Veracruz and the eastern neighbor of Tabasco.

For example, the town of La Venta is in Tabasco to the east, but the shortest distance from the border between the two states is not even two kilometers.

San Lorenzo, considered to be the center of the early Olmec civilization, is in the western state of Veracruz, far from the border.

It is even west of the port city of Coacaqués in the state of Veracruz.

This port city is also a well-established land that Lu Yuan has visited several times. The reconnaissance aircraft unit was attacked just a little bit east of this port.

According to geographical definition, the entire state of Veracruz, including the eastern end of the Olmec ruins, does not belong to the real Yucatan Peninsula.

In fact, the Yucatan Peninsula, as defined by geography, has its western end still east of Tabasco, starting in Campeche.

According to this standard, most of the states of Veracruz and Tabasco, that is, the battlefield where Lu Yuan is currently fighting with the Lizardmen Legion, actually belong to the coastal plain of Meheco Bay.

However, compared with the Mesa Plateau, which has an average elevation of almost two kilometers, whether it is the real Yucatan Peninsula or the Gulf Coastal Plain, the elevation is less than 200 meters.

And their topography is more similar, so Lu Yuan subconsciously always treats them as a whole.

For example, the so-called Yucatan grassland in Luyuankou actually includes the Yucatan Peninsula, the Gulf Coastal Plain east of the East Madre Mountains, and the Tehuantepec Isthmus in the Tehuantepec Bay south to the Pacific coast.

This is a bit like his usage of Mesa Plateau. In fact, in Spanish, the plateau he passed through was first divided into northern Mesa and central Mesa, meaning the northern plateau and the central plateau.

But Mesa itself means a table, which is more similar to Pingdingshan in Chinese than a plateau.

So in fact, Lu Yuan uses the Mesa Plateau to call this unique Mehekou Plateau with a square table-like top.

In later generations, there were many hills and mountains in the southern part of the Tehuantepec Isthmus, and the eastern side of its southern part was the starting point of the western end of the Central American volcanic arc.

As I said before, the two plates that made this volcanic belt or volcanic arc have not yet squeezed each other, so the terrain of this area is fairly flat at the moment.

It is precisely because of this that this vast area has become a grassland, rather than the intertwining of various topography and landforms such as rainforests and forests in later generations.

The reason for saying this is to explain that the part of the East Madre Mountains where Lu Yuan is currently located is like a small Y-shaped branch plus the lower one, printed on the northwest end of the Tehuantepec Isthmus.

However, from the mountain range where Luyuan's main ground forces are located, continue to the south, and this east Madre mountain range has changed from true north to south, and has changed back to most of its previous appearance, extending diagonally to the southeast.

Speaking of the northern mountain range that looks like the left half of the Y letter.

On the right side of the vertical, that is, on the east side of the mountain range, is an endless grassland.

On the left side of a vertical, and the lower left of the upper left branch, is the plateau rain forest.

On the upper right side of the upper left branch, but on the left side of the vertical upper extension line below, this area belongs to the Gulf Coastal Plain. Because the water vapor from the trade wind is blocked by the East Madre Mountains, it rains more than the eastern grassland. To be higher, a densely vegetation rain forest is also formed.

But because this area is not on the route that leads to Chicxulub crater far away, he has never thought of this area.

But he didn't expect that he had no idea to fight here, but the lizardmen army on the opposite side cleverly used this dense vegetation to ambush the second pterodactyl army.

Now, compared with the large bombardment pterosaurs in the air raid rocket launch position, the second pterosaur unit, which is smaller in size and faster in speed, keeps sticking to the top of the rainforest after crossing the northern mountain peaks. At the extremely low altitude, it quickly attacked Rosecuff’s launch vehicle area.

"Hey, Rose, do you want to help?" After seeing the change in the battlefield situation, Swallows calculated the speed of the two pterodactyl units and Rosecuff against the units, and found that the latter is difficult to attack on the enemy's surprise soldiers. Before launching the car, he returned to help, so he asked on the team channel.

"Not for the time being." Unexpectedly, Rosecuff rejected the Swallow's kindness, "Don't worry, I only brought half of the fighters out, and there is another half in the launch vehicle, enough to deal with them!"

Swallow was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, but soon understood.

As mentioned before, just like Siafi has always been Lu Yuan's logistics manager, Rosecuff has always been Swallow's right-hand man. They always act together.

But now, the biggest reason why Rosecuff was allowed to lead the attack alone was because Lu Yuan had already expanded an air combat drone force before, and it was a little too much to control so many fighters by one person alone.

It's not that the commander's speed of issuing orders is not enough, but that there are more fighters, and the space to be dispersed in actual combat is also large. As a result, the area of ​​the theater that needs to be paid attention to in time, and even the various types of intelligence within the area, are similarly larger.

The result is an increase multiplied by an increase, and it becomes an exponential increase.

Therefore, in order to reduce the amount of data that each center commander needs to pay attention to in real time, the air combat UAV formation has to be divided into two, respectively led by Swallow and Rosecuff.

At this time, the total number of fighters commanded by either of the two was more than twice that of the fighters previously controlled by the Yanzi.

In other words, Rosecuff said that only half of the fighters were brought to intercept the bombing pterodactyls that were about to escape. The so-called half of the fighters were about the same as the number of fighters led by the swallows to rescue the reconnaissance planes a few days ago. of.

So if the commander of the Lizardmen Legion is a little bit unwise, he might think that the air combat unit that attacks the first pterodactyl now is all the fighters on the Luyuan side.

I'm afraid, because of this, they will let the second pterodactyl lying in the North Mountain take advantage of the vacancy and attack the drone launch vehicle position.

So if Rosecuff sends out the remaining half of the drone at this time, the second pterodactyl unit will be wiped out immediately, but at least it will be stunned by a head-on blow.

So Swallow didn't say anything any more, and let Rosecuff take care of it herself.

But she didn't speak any more, Lu Yuan suddenly said, "Ross, your left-behind fighter should only fire half of it. In addition, half of the fighters chasing the Dongpo bombing pterodactyl are divided into two and four. One part of the fighter formations will flanking this second pterodactyl unit."

"Ah? Why?" Rosecuff asked subconsciously.
