The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

775. The Battle of Killin Wasteland (Part 1)

The planet Terminus, 200 kilometers west of the capital, Fermos.

The guns roared, and the flames shot up into the sky! Tens of thousands of troops are concentrated here for the most intense competition.

This is the landing site closest to the capital city of Fermos captured by the Fourth Civilization Army. Major General Xiao Guanghua, the commander-in-chief of the Army, came to the battlefield in person and commanded the 2nd Independent Armored Brigade and the 7th Mechanized Infantry Division of the Fourth Civilization, a total of 15,000 people. The attack was launched under the cover of the same number of robot troops.

Killin Wasteland is also the largest of the 15 landing battlefields on the entire planet.

boom! boom! boom! ! ! The 180mm caliber PPG-7 siege gun of the siege tank let out a roar, and powerful concussion grenades kept falling from the sky, setting off bursts of terrifying explosions on the wasteland ahead.

Each concussion grenade of the PPG-7 siege gun can create a crater with a diameter of 15 meters, and will be impacted by the shell explosion within a radius of 600 meters.

In the sky, a large number of vulture robot fighters mixed with about one-third of the number of ghost fighters were engaged in fierce air battles with the Republic's fighter group. The Republic's main aircraft here are the Z-95 Headhunter fighter and the V-19 Riptide fighter. They are clearly superior in number, but they are only daunted by the excellent stealth system of the Ghost fighter.

But even so, they kept looking for opportunities to break through the defense of the Fourth Civilization Air Force from the air and dive down, launching air strikes on the siege tank positions.

At the same time, the long-range firepower of the Republic Army, mainly AV-7 self-propelled artillery, also bombarded the positions of the Fourth Civilization. Not only that, the AT-TE walker is also providing fire support with the heavy howitzer equipped on the back .

The entire battlefield was completely covered by dense explosions.

Not to mention that, the tactical missiles launched from the warships in outer space are constantly falling from the sky, igniting fire in the friction of the atmosphere, making the sky red like a rain of fire! Then the dense anti-aircraft firepower and fighter jets of both sides intercepted these missiles one by one.

There was a twist in the air, and the formation of 4 Banshee fighter jets flew over from an ultra-low altitude, directly killing the artillery positions of the Republic Army. The fighter planes passed the criss-cross fortifications built by the Republic Army on the battlefield, as well as the anti-aircraft firepower points protected by movable deflector shields everywhere.

The bombing of the siege tanks set off violent explosions in this area, but the clone soldiers of the Republic in white combat armor could still be seen stooping into the preset firepower point of the position, and then opened fire. They maintain a good formation, and the distance between everyone is just right. Even if they are violently bombed, they can effectively avoid the explosion and counterattack.

AT-TE walkers are the fulcrum of firepower for every infantry position, relying on powerful firepower to provide support for at least one company of soldiers, so these walkers are scattered throughout the battlefield, almost everywhere.

From time to time, shells fell on the AT-TE walker. The powerful force made the walker take a few steps back, but it relied on its solid armor to resist the power of the explosion and immediately fired back.

This group of Banshee fighters even saw a missile launched from the Martha-class heavy cruiser break through and intercept and land on a Republic air defense position. The terrible explosion emptied that area directly, and the shock wave even caused their stealth system to generate damage. Volatility!

The radar of a nearby AT-TE walker immediately detected it and reported it to the combat headquarters.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen V-19 Torrent light fighters swooped down from the super high altitude, and under the fixed-point guidance of the headquarters' ground air defense radar, fired a series of lasers at the Banshee fighter. The quadruple-mounted anti-aircraft blast energy laser cannons on the ground air defense position also began to fire wildly in this direction.

The formation of Banshee fighter planes immediately spread out, shuttling through the hail of bullets.

A fighter plane was shot down, the cloaking device failed, and it rolled and fell to the ground in a big fire, plowing a large crater hundreds of meters long on the ground, and flames and debris scattered all over the ground.

The second one was shot down, and the third one... They tried to fire all the holographic decoy bombs before being shot down, so as to create that slight chance for the last fighter plane.

The pilot of the Banshee fighter looked at the airspace that was almost covered by countless anti-aircraft firepower. He could not see any expressions on the full-coverage flight helmet, and could only see countless data and graphics on the dark tactical eyepiece. While rolling, she took a final photo of a handsome middle-aged man inserted in front of the console, and then pushed the joystick suddenly to turn off the stealth mode and turn on the engine afterburner module! !

The Banshee Fighter suddenly accelerated to a speed that was almost impossible to control effectively! Through electronic instruments, the driver has also seen his target - the artillery position composed of 5 Galactic Republic AV-7 self-propelled artillery!

A blast laser beam hit the fighter plane, and the turbofan on the left duct exploded and caught fire, but she was already close to the target! !

"I am a natural disaster!!!" The fighter pilot let out a roar and pressed the launch button hard!

More than a dozen cluster rockets fell from the sky, blasting the artillery positions of the Galactic Republic into a sea of ​​flames. Almost at the same time, the Banshee fighter lost control and fell headlong, exploding into a ball of fire in the violent explosion.

5 M-650 Mastodon armored personnel carriers quickly approached the battlefield under the cover of M-9 Wolverine anti-aircraft combat vehicles and Vulture combat vehicles, rushed to a place about 500 meters away from the Republic position, and immediately stopped with a sudden brake. The 30mm caliber remote control cannon specially equipped for this battle in the rear fired wildly at the Republic position in front.

The rear hatch of the infantry fighting vehicle opened, and Huang Yehao jumped out first, shouting loudly: "Hurry up! We only have 10 seconds!! Enter the position immediately!!"

A fourth civilization army came out of the infantry fighting vehicle one after another and immediately entered the combat position.

[The stealth device of the Ghost Fighter still has 5 minutes of power, hurry up and break through the Republic's position! 】Instructions came from the communication.

"Assault immediately!!" Huang Yehao gave the order, "Cummings! Set up the energy shield and follow the infantry fighting vehicle! You are too conspicuous!"

"I am a natural disaster!! Charge!!!" The Fourth Civilization Army shouted the slogan and followed the infantry fighting vehicles to charge quickly.

The vulture chariot rushed to the front, and used a grenade launcher to fire fragmentation grenades one after another and exploded on the Republic's position.

Shhhhh~~~~! Countless blast energy beams flew around with the breath of death, Huang Yehao and others tried to run as fast as possible behind the infantry fighting vehicle, so as not to be hit by the firepower.

Suddenly there was a burst of gunshots ahead, and then the two vulture chariots were directly torn apart by the crazy firepower, and the burning car body rushed forward for hundreds of meters under the action of inertia before stopping.

"E-WEB heavy machine gun!! 11 o'clock direction!! Cummings!!" Huang Yehao roared loudly.

"Leave it to me!!" Cummings roared angrily. This time, there were two automatic mortars mounted on the Semiers!

boom! boom! boom! Several mortar shells were fired and exploded on the front position.

But before they could confirm the result, an M-650 mastodon infantry fighting vehicle next to it was hit by several powerful blasting laser cannons!

boom! boom! ! ! The infantry fighting vehicle was immediately blown to pieces in the violent explosion, and the 20 Army soldiers of the Fourth Civilization who followed hurriedly prostrated themselves on the ground, moved close to the ground, and raised their heads with difficulty to fight back.

In the front position, several tall biped walking machines appeared.

"AT-XT!!! Watch out!!!"
