Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 18 Lead the snake out of the hole (14)

The battle in the asteroid belt is far from over.

On the contrary, it got worse and worse.

The increasingly fierce battle situation gave SDF-1 a chance.

Multiple VE-1 sorties continued to take off.

In 10 minutes, the air surveillance network established with these VE-1 early warning aircraft will cover this space.

This air surveillance network will be the first step for SDF-1 to target the satellite factories hidden in the asteroid belt.

"This is Hawkeye One. Skeleton 77, the airspace is safe. The channel is clear, you can start action!"

"understand!"

During the conversation between He Ming and Hawkeye 3000, the QF-[-]Es in a group of three sorties broke away from the queue and plunged into the asteroid belt.

Their mission is to get as close as possible to the battlefield between Gerati and Metlanti, looking for appropriate opportunities to attract the attention of the Metlantian fleet fighting the Gerati stars.

Then, use your best efforts to attract the Metlanti forces that may be sent to pursue them to the satellite factory.

of course.

When He Ming confirmed that there was a battle between the Metlanti fleet and the Gerati battleship group, he had already speculated whether the other party was also eyeing the satellite factory.

If so, the actions of QF-3000E will greatly reduce the action time of the Metlanti fleet.

If not, the QF-3000E will make the Metlanti fleet realize that if they want to defeat the Gerati battleship group, they must take down the satellite project.

No matter what, the ultimate purpose of the QF-3000E operation is to make the Metlanti fleet notice the existence of the satellite factory.

"The data link transmission is good, no abnormalities! Skeleton 77. Please pay attention to the safety of the surrounding environment!"

"understand!"

After giving Hawkeye 52 a response, the SV3000 driven by He Ming turned around and entered the asteroid belt again, guarded by six QF-[-]Es.

His mission was not to alert the Metlanti fleet, but to escort the standard combat bag that had set off first to the vicinity of the satellite project.

"This is Skeleton 77. Please reply when you receive it."

He Ming opened the encrypted communication and sent a call to the battle capsule hidden in the asteroid belt.

"This is Richard. Skeleton 77, received."

It has to be said that Professor Rhodes and others still have a few brushes.

In a short period of time, it was possible to assimilate Richard Birla, a prisoner of the Gerati star, to this point.

At the moment, the Gerardi star who can basically be judged to have surrendered is sitting in the long-lost battle bag, performing various operations.

Originally, according to his familiarity with the combat bag, these very simple operations in the past were just a blink of an eye.

However, this combat bag was seriously damaged in the earlier battle.

It was only possible to start it up again because the expert team racked their brains and tried every means to achieve it.

However, this battle bag, which was repaired as much as possible, only restored part of its mobility.

If you want to fight, that is something you cannot do.

In other words, even if it can be repaired enough to cope with the battle, the expert team cannot repair it.

After all, the humans on SDF-1 are still wary of the Gerardians.

This is true even if the other party has been captured by them.

"Here I come! Richard."

The figure of SV52 appeared.Along with this, the hook ropes shot by two QF-3000Es hooked Richard Beale's combat bag.

Then, the two flew towards the satellite factory together.

Next, they need to put on a bitter show.

On the other side, under the control of the intelligent AI cube, the QF-3000E sent to lure the Metlanti fleet has arrived at the target coordinates.

"Q1-Q3, reach the target coordinates!Start to lure the snake out of its hole! 』

Instructions are sent out from the communication network controlled by the intelligent AI cube Adino, and finally reach the systems named Q1, Q2, and Q3.

As a result, the Metlanti fleet, which had been fighting fiercely with the Gerati battleship group for a long time, suddenly discovered that three weak signal sources had appeared.

The radar showed that these three weak signal sources were approaching from behind the Metlanti fleet at an alarming speed.

Suddenly, the Metlanti fleet responded immediately.

The Metlanti mecha troops far away from the front line quickly returned to the defense and spread in all directions, seemingly trying to implement the tactics of encirclement and annihilation.

As for whether the three weak signal sources came from the backhand of the Gerati battleship group, the Metlanti fleet didn't care.

The two races named Gerati and Metlanti, both created by primitive civilization, have been fighting each other for tens of thousands of years, and they are very familiar with each other.

However, at the next moment when the mecha troops were about to close together, the three signals suddenly dispersed, using strange maneuvers to break out of the encirclement like lightning.

This strange situation did not make Metlandi's mecha troops hesitate, but instead accelerated in pursuit.

In the blink of an eye, three QF-3000Es shuttled through the asteroid belt with extremely weird maneuvers, like dragons swimming into the sea, surprising the Metlanti mecha troops that followed.

However, the more this happened, the more they aroused their desire to hunt.

Such a strange prey has almost surpassed the mood of fighting against the Geraldi battleships.

Even among this mecha unit, there were several smart commanders who realized that the three QF-3000E seemed to be trying to lure them somewhere.

After realizing this, this mecha unit not only did not retreat, but only sent information to track the enemy to the fleet behind, and then followed them all the way.

"Master, the snake has come out of its hole. 』

After receiving the reward from the intelligent AI cube Adino, He Ming nodded slowly.

At the same time, the SV52, which was raising its muzzle and shooting at the crumbling combat capsule in front, also stopped and watched the reinforcements from the satellite factory from a distance, protecting the combat capsule driven by Richard Birla. , then turned and left.

"Adino, send a message back to SDF-1! The snake has come out of the hole and the mouse has entered the cage."

As soon as they received the news, each flight group was ready to go, waiting for Grobar's order to attack.

Misa Hayase also stood at the edge of the podium, silently counting the current time.

For now, the people of SDF-1 just have to wait for the moment when the snake discovers the mouse.

As long as the Metlanti fleet's attention can be successfully lured to the satellite factory, then SDF-1 will definitely have something to rely on for its next actions.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to destroy the satellite factory just by relying on the firepower of the SDF-1 single ship and hundreds of fighter jets.

Moreover, from He Ming's point of view, it is even more impossible to destroy the core inside the satellite factory.

Therefore, the Metlantic fleet is necessary.

"coming!"

SV52, hiding in the shadow of the asteroid belt, received the signal from Q1.

"Snake, the mouse has been found."
