Shirogane replied expressionlessly. At this time, she focused part of her gaze on the bottom of the White Base's hull, among the burning wreckage of Zeon military vehicles, either with reluctance or with a look of fear. Zeon soldiers set up machine guns and fired at the White Base out of hatred.

'There are no high-value targets, and ammunition is limited and cannot be wasted. '

Chapter 38: Non-stop (4)

On the wilderness shrouded in darkness, piles of 'bonfires' were lit. Under normal circumstances, people might have thought that a carnival was being held nearby;

However, at the moment, with the sound of artillery still resounding through the wilderness from time to time, and the rockets and tracer bullets that briefly flashed across the sky, as long as you take a closer look, it is not difficult to find that these burning bonfires are all types of land combat vehicles of the Zeon Army. Tools and the remains of the mobile suit.

"Are there... any more enemies?"

Amuro panted, sitting in the cockpit of the Gundam, extinguishing the beam saber. In front of the Gundam was the last Zeon Army Matera tank, and the leading four Zakus had been destroyed earlier. Got:

Gundam directly used the beam sword to penetrate the commander's command tower on the top of the turret, and then slashed it to the front of the car body, accurately destroying the positions of the commander in the turret and the driver in the car body.

While calming his heartbeat, Amuro turned his head and looked around, reaching out to wipe the sweat that almost slipped into his eyes;

Continuously maintaining acrobatic movements to avoid the firepower of the Zeon army's mixed armor formation, and finally closing the distance and eliminating them one by one is also a quite physically demanding task for Amuro.

The current Gundam has run out of ammunition for its beam rifle and Vulcan cannon, and the only weapons it can use are its beam swords.

Not sure if it was an illusion, but looking at the burning tank wreckage in front of him, Amuro felt as if he could hear the miserable and unwilling wails of the Zeon soldiers among them before they died.

"Devil, this must be the devil's weapon!"

"impossible!"

"Mom, I don't want to die..."

'Am I too tired? 'Amuro blinked hard.

At this time, the communicator on the side came out with an indistinct female voice mixed with electric current noise, which diverted Amuro's attention: "Zi... please move closer to... Fang, and join forces with... Zi... .”

'It's Miss Platinum's voice. Is the White Base not far away? '

Amuro thought.

"Evil...devil, die!"

"what!"

It is different from the previous battles in the universe. At that time, only single digits of Zaku were often killed in front of the Gundam. The number of kills was incomparable to Amuro's mixed force that destroyed an entire Zeon army on the ground. .

And Amuro, who was haunted by the undead that seemed unwilling to disappear, was careless and ignored the faint warning in his mind——

A rocket accurately hit the Gundam's thigh, but it failed to penetrate the Gundam's Luna titanium alloy armor.

Amuro subconsciously operated the Gundam to take a small leap, avoiding the original position, and controlled the body to rush in the direction of the attack. However, there was no Zaku, nor a Magera tank or a Gee that had been missed by the Gundam. Weng's armored personnel carrier;

A Zeon tank soldier hid under the overturned armored vehicle and fired a shoulder-mounted rocket launcher he found from somewhere.

It seemed that the space under the armored vehicle was not wide enough. The Zeon tank soldier had been injured by the tail flame and recoil of the rocket launcher he fired, and was lying on the ground covered in blood and wailing.

"Yes, human beings, living human beings...haven't the machines and vehicles they piloted been destroyed? Even so, do you still have to keep fighting?!"

On the ground battlefield, for the first time, Amuro felt a little shaken when he saw the enemy being destroyed by him so intuitively at close range.

However, Gundam lit up his beam sword again and thrust it straight into the ground.

'Even if the weapons of the Zeon infantry are not enough to penetrate the Gundam's armor, Captain Blade and Kai are still nearby, and we cannot leave enemies who still have the will to fight behind! '

Amuro tensed his nerves and emphasized to himself repeatedly.

The Gundam's sharp eyes looked around again, but this time, Amuro not only paid attention to the Zeon mobile suits, tanks and armored vehicles, but also the hostile humanoid objects twisted in the firelight.

……

"Having received the signal from the Gundam, Captain Blade and Corporal Kai have also confirmed that they are intact and are about to approach the White Base."

Platinum adjusted the camera with low-light night vision capabilities on the outside of the ship to bring the Gundam, which was approaching the White Base step by step, and the car following behind into view;

"Quickly, contain Captain Brad!"

"Understood, Sergeant Long Jose, please keep the Guntank on alert to prevent enemies from attacking when the Gundam returns to the ship. Now open the door to the Gnaku in the middle of the ship, and ask the maintenance crew to prepare for the return of the Gundam. Weapons and ammunition. Reloading and propellant replenishment are about to begin."

Bai Jin translated the instructions given by Mi Lai into specific orders and conveyed them in an orderly manner.

On the White Base, Platinum temporarily suspended the light control and re-lit the azimuth indicators and pilot lights all around the ship; at the same time, she was also communicating with Amuro:

"Sergeant Amuro, can you hear me?"

"You can hear it, Miss Platinum... Phew... White Base Number, are you okay?"

"There is a small amount of new damage, but it does not affect functionality. Have you also fought with the Zeon Army? From the White Base, you can also sense that the strength of the Zeon Army is not concentrated, and it seems that it was distracted by someone's harassment. .”

Platinum recalled the running memory, which was taken at close range by the crew of the White Base. On the left side of the ship's bow, next to the ejection track used for MS sorties, the weak point in the armor was a small hole made by a Zeon tank armor-piercing projectile;

If it were deflected another half meter inward, then this armor-piercing bullet would have a chance of paralyzing the catapult of a White Base.

'If we continue to fight like this without getting repairs and supplies, there will be a day when the White Base cannot survive... However, the observation of new humans is going quite smoothly, as is the collection of operational data. '

Platinum judged that, fortunately, the location of the White Base has now gradually changed from the flat desert desert to the rugged and rugged mountains and canyons of North America's central and western mountains;

More importantly, the population in this area is also sparse, and the same applies to Zeon's garrison.

"Ah...yes, the Gundam needs supplies immediately."

"Sergeant Amuro, you should take a break too."

From the battle in low-Earth orbit to now, not even half a day has passed.

"...Gundam's combat power is now indispensable."

Amuro gripped the Gundam's control stick tightly, unwilling to let go, and muttered in the communication with Shirogane.

"Understood, then Sergeant Amuro, please pay attention to your condition."

Platinum controlled the White Base to gradually decelerate and lower the floating height of the hull. The door to the Gnaku in the middle of the hull had been opened, and the outwardly extending take-off and landing platform was outlined by a slightly flashing indicator light.

"Miss Platinum, are you still in a hurry now? I can just jump on."

Amuro drove the Gundam and ran with long strides, gradually surpassing the front of the White Base.

If the White Base wants to stop again, it will indeed take more time to land on the ground. However, the Gundam driven by Amuro is not alone at this time. There are also Captain Blade and Kai sitting in the car who need to be recovered.

"I can hold Captain Blood's car in my hands."

"This is not in compliance with safety regulations, Sergeant Amuro, and there will be certain dangers."

In response to Amuro's proposal, Platinum's backstage evaluation of Amuro's Gundam piloting skills was diametrically opposed to the existing safety regulations of the Federation Army;

However, Platinum cannot give permission to break the rules and regulations just because "superior personal ability can reduce the risk of this dangerous move."

But it is Captain Blade and Kay who bear the main risk;

"It doesn't matter, I allowed it. Letting the White Base land now is a more risky decision."

"Wait, Captain Brad, this is not a joke?!"

The voices of Captain Brad and Kai came from the communication channel at the same time, one was calm and confident, the other panicked.

At this time, a missile like a meteor shower flew past in the distance. It was unknown which Zeon force called for fire support; however, either they had been wiped out by the White Base, or they were caught in meter particle interference and were unable to provide fire support for the missile. Guidance at the end——

These long-range missiles flew over 4 kilometers behind the starboard side of the white base, completely missed their target, and landed in a barren desert, triggering a series of explosions;

Destroyed a dozen hapless cacti.

Due to the confusion in command and coordination, and the fact that the troops temporarily mobilized to participate in the battle are not subordinate to each other, the combat literacy can only be described as ordinary at best——

The ground troops of the Zeon Army, in the environment of rice particles, which they were supposed to be good at, actually played a ball that could make Major Char support his forehead, and even completely erased the fact that his troops had lost nearly ten Zaku, which was facing him. A little bit of guilt from his boss, Dozuru.

Kai's attitude was ignored; now that he had Captain Blade's approval, Amuro naturally controlled the Gundam with confidence, fixed the shield and beam gun behind the Gundam, and then bent down to lift the off-road vehicle. , hugged to the chest.

"It's about to get fucked-"

In an instant, Kai first felt a huge push on his back, pressing him tightly against the back of the seat. Before he could scream, then, there was a short period of weightlessness, and finally he just heard " Bang' sound:

Gundam has already stood firmly in front of the White Base's Gnaku, and the recovery was successful; behind Gundam, the door to the Gnaku is slowly closing, and the White Base is also accelerating again.

"Welcome back to the ship, Captain Blade, and Sergeant Amuro and Corporal Kai."

Platinum's voice came from the radio speakers in the Gnaku, and at the same time, maintenance crews driving various engineering vehicles dragged various pipelines and ammunition around.

……

"What a bunch of losers! They can't even delay that 'Trojan Horse'."

In the chaotic night, riding on a Gao-class aircraft carrier, I pursued the burning wreckage of the Zeon troops, looking for the location that was already clear, but became confusing again in a series of enemy encounter reports. White base number.

"Don't be anxious, Karma, haven't we already bit the tail of the White Base?"

The 'eyes' of the Zeon ground forces, the scouts driving the suspension motorcycles still followed the White Base closely with the help of the faint light inevitably emitted by the meter particle suspension system;

And just like a relay, the positioning information was finally accurately conveyed through the formation extending outside the interference area of ​​the rice particles dispersed by the White Base.

Major Xia Ya advised unkindly from the side. Although he was assisting Karma as the general reserve team, now Xia Ya has seen more and more clearly the details of the young master of the Zabi family.

"I believe that the elite divisions of the Earth Attack Force will definitely not stay in the rear and do nothing. I believe that you are not someone who can do such a waste of talents. Since the response of the rear garrison is slightly untimely, it is also That’s understandable.”

"Even so, the combat reports that these people usually submit to annihilate the remnants of the federal army and suppress the unruly people who are disobedient to the management and violently resist the law are all written in a colorful way. I really can't believe that they..."

Karma stared at the tactical map with some annoyance at the signs of the Zeon army units that had lost contact one by one;

At the moment, the Zeon army seemed to be firing fiercely and the fight was lively. However, after fighting for a long time, all the casualties were friendly troops. The cunning Federation warship still showed no sign of damage or slowdown.

"So why not let me go out? After all, Karma, you still have to sit in the center and coordinate the overall situation. I still have some experience in dealing with that federal warship."

Char deliberately provoked Karma, and as expected, Karma fell into the trap and refused directly:

"No, at least there are still complete reserve forces on the Gawu class, and the troops dispatched from the California base are also approaching here. The federal warship cannot escape; I will personally drive the Dopp to attack! "

As the commander of the Earth Attack Force, Karma, who has always required himself to lead by example, also worked hard to pass the assessment of fighter pilots in the Zeon atmosphere. Even in the propaganda of the Zeon Army, it is still an extremely rare Dopp type. Fighter Ace.

"Isn't this a bit dangerous, Karma? The federal warship's anti-aircraft firepower is unusual."

Char continued to fan the flames.

"That's why I have to take part in person. I have carefully studied the combat video from the last battle. Although the federal warship's anti-aircraft firepower is tight, it has its limits; its armor protection does not cover all areas."

Karma said resolutely. The increasing battle losses now made Karma, who wanted to prove himself to his family, no longer able to hold on to his dignity.

"Char, I leave the command of the Gau class aircraft carrier and the coordination with the ground forces to you first; let our troops continue to harass the federal warship day and night, and wait until dawn, when the enemy is most exhausted and vulnerable. When the time comes, I will take action to defeat them!"

When the available troops in his hands gradually decreased to the number that he could handle, the situation finally returned to the territory that Karma was familiar with; he turned slightly sideways and looked at his friend trustingly, and Karma showed his determination.

Chapter 39: Nonstop (End)

"Report, test firing failed, correct the enemy warship's course to 17 degrees north-west, altitude 35 meters... Wait, there are bombs again, no, who fired this round of shelling that hit the bombs at 1:32:[-]? ?! Don’t make a mistake.”

Driving a hoverbike that could easily exceed two hundred kilometers per hour, the Zeon ground force scouts were flying through the wilderness, vaguely surrounding the White Base in a semi-surrounding formation, but they did not dare to go too far. near.

The Zeon Army, which has always emphasized that in a meter-particle interference environment, operates within visual range, has naturally invested a lot of energy in training professional manpower reconnaissance troops, making Zeon's scouts more similar to elites in the traditional sense. Highly mobile troops——

Unlike federal scouts, they often refer to operators of remote-controlled drones who sit in front of a computer screen every day, or controllers of other types of electronic reconnaissance.

"Fire control notice... A missile will pass through in 1 minute and 17 seconds. Please confirm the coordinates of the enemy ship!"

But even so, the artillerymen, scouts, school shooters, and fire control officers on the Gaw-class aircraft carriers all became a mess in the communication channels.

"Which direction did the missile come from? We need lighting next... zizi... [Side 3 expletive] Why is the line disconnected again? Which point is the problem?"

Within hundreds of kilometers around, the long-range fire strike forces belonging to different units were all connected to the Gau-class aircraft carrier that Karma was riding on at this time, waiting for him to provide shooting elements;

And Karma himself, the commander of Zeon's Earth Attack Force, would definitely not do such a small job as coordinating supporting firepower himself, and the Gau-class aircraft carrier that was urgently transferred did not have any standing personnel capable of coordinating the firepower. A staff group with such a large force.

Coupled with the interference of rice particles scattered by the White Base, the front-line observation information often has to go through several rounds of transfer before being transferred to the Gawu-class aircraft carrier and re-sent to various strike forces in the hands of the already overwhelmed fire control officers——

The White Base could barely support itself and continue moving forward amid the rain of shells.

Accompanied by the sizzling sound of electricity that reappeared in the earphones, the Zeon Army's scout, Lieer, smashed the armrest of the motorcycle with enthusiasm and turned away from the White Base;

"Gather to me—"

The sergeant shouted at the loudspeaker at the top of his voice. Although the Zeon Army has also tried to develop individual walkie-talkies for use in meter particle interference environments, due to factors such as reliability, weight and cost, if conditions permit, However, most Zeon soldiers still rely more on 'roar' for communication.

The voice of the scout sergeant barely covered up the rumbling engine of the hoverbike, and a dozen more scouts who were also riding on hoverbikes approached.

"Whose communicator can still contact the command headquarters?"

Sergeant Leal patted the large anti-jamming communicator installed on the back seat of his motorcycle. Despite its name, there were actually many times when this thing was unreliable.

"It probably won't work here. It's because the relay node that fell behind didn't catch up. Sergeant Lear, I'll turn my communicator into relay mode. I'll find out how far the node needs to be. I'll make up for it."

Immediately, someone raised their hands, scrambling to complete this safest task——
