The Wandering Planet

Chapter 512: A Spark Starts a Prairie Fire

The Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force led by Stanton continued to expand the attack range and gradually spread to the entire island chain near Tower Fort.

There are less than a hundred of them in total, but they give the Imperial Army the feeling of a thousand-strong army. They are like ducks to water on Scarif, an archipelago planet covered with tropical rainforests. Every attack is accompanied by a rain of rockets. Bombing.

As demonstrated by Liu Peiqiang's previous military exercises with Wakanda's troops, the infantry tactics of Wandering Earth have always been of a very high level, especially for guerrilla warfare.

Now this expeditionary force is broken into parts, taking advantage of the equipment advantages of individual weapons, to launch a surprise attack on Scarif's military platform, focusing on ammunition depots, transport boats, fuel chambers and other inflammable and explosive objects. The local firepower poured out, causing a series of chain reactions, making the imperial army's judgment on the situation even more severe.

For a time, there was quite a spark that could start a prairie fire. Explosions were happening everywhere, and the number of casualties of the Imperial Army was also soaring.

None of them could figure out why Scarif, which was the security center of the empire, suddenly came under such a violent attack without warning.

How did such a large number of enemies infiltrate?

Stanton carried a twelve-barreled Gauss rapid-fire machine gun and fired at an Imperial military landing platform.

The tongue of fire spewed out by this thing looks like a beam of continuous and uninterrupted laser light. With a casual sweep, the surrounding woods fell down like mowed grass, and the soldiers of the Empire were even blasted into scum including people and bunkers.

In order to supply the ammunition consumption of such a multi-barreled cannon, Stanton carried a mountain-high ammunition box on his back with a magnetic levitation force field, stacked layer upon layer like an overloaded Indian motorcycle.

The stormtroopers of the Empire fearlessly raised their guns and fired back. The blast energy beams they fired hit Stanton’s nano armor sporadically, only making a finger-sized gap, causing a little flesh injury to Stanton, and there was nothing he could do about it. Further damage was done.

The damaged nano-armor immediately began to repair itself. At the same time, Stanton immediately turned his gun to suppress the group of stormtroopers. It was like using a high-pressure water gun to extinguish a flame the size of a cigarette butt. Swept to pieces.

After such a storm of bullet cleaning, there was not a single intact thing left at the scene, there were still smoking bullet holes everywhere, the docked spaceship was completely broken into parts, and even a No body was left with intact limbs.

Stanton unloaded several empty ammunition boxes on his body,

The ground at his feet was completely covered with bullet casings, like a puddle of water.

Even so, the goods behind him were still piled up like a courier on Double Eleven. In order to hide in the jungle, he had to release some more bullets.

An expeditionary soldier came to meet Stanton. He attacked another landing platform, and he also succeeded.

It's just that the nano-armor on his body has a few more scars from the blaster gun, and it is automatically repairing. At the same time, the biological force field is deployed to heal the injuries on himself and Stanton.

The expeditionary soldier reported: Sir, the shield gate is closing!

Stanton looked up, and sure enough, Scarif's planetary shield force field had been completely closed, which completely isolated them from communication with the outside world, and they would not receive any support for a short time.

He took out the transmission beacon on his body, and sure enough, this device, which was used as a lifeline, also showed that it could not be connected.

This is a natural result, even the communication signal cannot be sent out, let alone the transmission beacon that would take the whole person away.

The rest is up to us.

Stanton put away the transmission beacon and said that he had already made such mental preparations.

The surrounding area of ​​the tower castle has become a mess, the alarm in the command room is like snowflakes, and the frontline soldiers shouted hoarsely through the communication channel:

Enemies are everywhere! We can't hold on anymore!

Accustomed to conducting security warfare with various rebels in urban areas, the Imperial Army has not competed with the well-equipped regular army for too long, let alone encountered an opponent with such frenzied individual firepower as the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Army. He was so beaten that he cried and called his father and mother, he was completely overwhelmed.

In their eyes, every soldier of the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force is a Humanoid Gundam, and being hit by a blaster is only a little flesh wound. It must be hit at the same place again before the nano armor is repaired to truly cause fatal injuries.

The firepower of the weapons and equipment is definitely not infantry level. How can anyone carry a multi-barreled cannon weighing more than 300 kilograms, and carry more than one ton of ammunition on their backs and still walk like flying?

By supplementing enough nanomaterials, a small number of expeditionary soldiers also strengthened the nano-armor into an anti-vehicle armor mode, which has the same size as an anti-Hulk armor. It is not so much a heavy armored infantry as a smooth large-scale bipedal walk tank.

This set of anti-vehicle armor uses two quadruple-mounted large-caliber grenade launchers, which are specially designed to deal with the Empire's AT series armored walkers.

At least for the AT-ST that Qiao Lu had encountered on Jeddah before, the anti-vehicle armor could quickly disintegrate it into a pile of burning copper and iron.

So many unheard-of new weapons and equipment made the imperial army overwhelmed, so they could only send a large number of garrisons to support them.

A large number of garrison troops poured out of the tower castle like a tide and rushed to the various platforms under attack. In their eyes, this was almost a full-scale attack by the rebels.

At this moment, Qiao Lv, 2B, and Genji groped around the tower castle. Seeing explosions and raging fires around them, it was impossible to imagine that this was a small group of troops creating chaos.

Qiao Lv said resentfully: Fortunately, I didn't let them attack directly, otherwise the opponent would definitely give up defense and consider how to destroy important data.

Judging from the difference in combat effectiveness between the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force and the Imperial Army, it is not difficult to directly defeat Scarif, but the problem is that the opponent will not just watch the Death Star design fall into the enemy's hands. All its data were destroyed before.

What is really daunting to the Empire is the powerful space forces like the Death Star and the Executor-class Star Destroyer. Whether it is infantry or armored troops on the ground battlefield, there is no doubt that the Wandering Earth is better. This time Scarif The battle has proved this point.

But the next is the critical time, Qiao Lv must get the design of the Death Star with lightning speed, and only then can the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force launch an offensive with more freedom!
