Chapter 1293 Meteor airborne, assault landing battle (7)

Landing operations have always been considered the most difficult type of battle. Whether it is from the sea or from the void, it is very troublesome.

Generally speaking, before executing a landing operation, it is necessary to seize air superiority, bombard or bomb the target area, and finally let the assault landing ship go on the field.

Now the number of warships coming to support is too small, and there is no way to break through the blockade of the enemy cruiser formation and clear the enemy in the low-Earth orbit in a short time. For this reason, the assault landing ship can only go first and force a breakthrough.

When the pulse flight ended, the azure planet named Stantum appeared in the porthole, but also appeared in the porthole, and there were orbital bombardment ships sailing in the low-Earth orbit.

These ships need to be cleared, and the Swan immediately bombarded the nearest orbital bombardment ship.

At this time, one assault landing ship after another followed from the rear.

The six specially modified light cruisers, including the Swan, were responsible for leading the charge, and they would land in six different areas of the planet.

The orbital bomber had no self-defense capability and was soon sunk and fell into the atmosphere, but there were usually one or two patrol ships guarding the orbital bomber. This time was no exception. They had already rushed up aggressively.

"The assault landing ship set off and execute the landing operation. I will provide cover for you."

Alyssa ordered the Swan to move forward and stop the two patrol ships. The assault landing ships of the Rotating Water Federation flew over from the other side of the Swan.

"The rocket launch nest is activated, the torpedo is launched, and the forward three is to cover the assault landing ship to move forward!"

The Swan launched a full-bomb launch, regardless of whether it hits or not, just hit it first.

The orbital bomber is like a satellite. There is one at a certain distance. It is impossible for the Swan to completely clean it up. I can only say that I will try my best.

Originally, this work should be done by the friendly forces responsible for support, but it is not because the number of friendly forces coming is too small, so they can only break through by force.

It was not clear what the other assault landing ship formations were like, but the Swan, which had been modified several times without regard for cost, was almost a dimensionality reduction attack on the orbital bomber and the light cruiser that escorted the orbital bomber.

As long as the main gun hits, it will definitely penetrate a warship. The secondary gun is not so easy to take, and it will not be able to withstand two more shots.

In addition, at this time, Alyssa saw that the hangar hatch of the Swan was opened unconsciously. It was obvious that Li Chengxi couldn't hold it and went out to join in the event.

This caused a serious blow to the nearby orbital bombers.

The assault landing ships took the opportunity to break into the atmosphere one after another, like countless meteors, to carry out the landing operation.

The Swan has not yet gone down, and is carrying out the fire cover mission.

I hope everything goes well.

–--——----

Recapturing Stantum is a very important part of the meteor operation, but the top leaders of the Xuanshui Federation did not think that it would be so simple to recapture it just by descending. After all, this place has been occupied by the Red Maple Republic for two or three months, and it must have been transformed to a certain extent.

The mission of the assault landing ship is to seize important facilities, energy facilities, and stargate control centers. As for retaking the entire planet?

We have to wait until the galaxy is retaken and slowly clear the remaining Red Maple Republic Army on the planet.

The cruiser formation is bombarding the Red Maple Republic's cruiser formation and maneuvering towards the planet.

At this time, the Swan can also give up the work of escorting the assault landing ship and start preparing for descent.

"Good posture, route confirmed, contact with the exosphere in three seconds."

"All weapons and equipment are stored in the warehouse, and the descent operation begins."

The Swan is in position, and the bottom of the ship is in contact with the lowest exosphere in the atmosphere.

This time, because it is more relaxed, it can adjust its posture for descent, unlike last time, when the Swan almost skipped a step on the exosphere.

"Normal speed, normal temperature, about to enter communication blackout."

As the Swan descends in altitude, the violent air friction causes the bottom of the Swan to emit a bright red light, and the radar and communication equipment also fail at this time.

Although it was the second time that the Swan was used for landing, it must be said that this was not a job that could be adapted to.

Rumbling vibrations continued to come along the hull structure. Everyone on the bridge tied themselves up with safety belts. It felt like sitting on a massage chair and being hammered.

To be honest, although I knew that the Swan had the ability to enter the atmosphere alone, I was still very worried that it would fall apart.

As the intense red light outside the window disappeared, the Swan began to fall freely.

"Communications restored, radar restored to normal."

"Floating engines ready!"

After breaking through the heat barrier, the Swan stopped shaking wildly, and the four floating engines arranged on both sides turned 90 degrees, with the nozzles facing downward.

The last time the Swan landed, it was in the sea area of ​​the continental shelf, but this time it was a completely inland area. Looking down, you can see a large number of crisscrossing mountains and vast forests and plains.

Of course, you can also see the assault landing ship that came down first.

In order to cover them, the Swan was not the last to come down, but at least it was in the middle and rear of the team.

The first assault landing ship to come down might have already reached the ground.

"Altitude, 10,000 meters!"

"Start the floating engine!"

The nozzle of the floating engine gathered countless light spots, which eventually turned into a strong engine light.

Starting at this altitude will further slow down the Swan, and the best working state of the floating engine is when it is below 3,000 meters.

And it is obvious that the Red Maple Republic Army on the ground will not let the assault landing ship come down so easily.

At the same time as the floating engine is turned on, the ion beams and the anti-aircraft artillery fire that exploded a large cloud of black smoke in the air became very common and clear.

When the Red Maple Republic landed, because the jammer was launched in advance, the planetary defense system on the planet Stantum was shut down, the ion beam could not be started at all, and the anti-aircraft guns were all aimed by hand, so of course they were not accurate, and the firepower density was not high.

But this time when the Swirl Water Federation landed, there was no jammer to paralyze the planetary defense system.

During the period when the Red Maple Republic occupied Stantum, it was obvious that it had completely taken over the planetary defense system, and from time to time, it could be seen that the assault landing ship was destroyed.

Of course, as mentioned before, the assault landing ship is rare, and the warships will be installed below, with the purpose of dealing with the artillery of the planetary defense system during the descent.

For a while, artillery fire was exchanged, and flashes of explosions appeared both on the ground and in the sky. The Swan was also hit by several shells. Because the altitude was still too high and the depression angle was not enough, the most it could do was to use the ship's anti-aircraft guns to fight back.

However, the Swan's shield was much stronger than that of the assault landing ship. The anti-aircraft firepower set up for the assault landing ship immediately became weak when it encountered the cruise ship.

As the altitude decreased, through the bridge, even with the naked eye, one could see the large number of fortifications that the Red Maple Republic had built.

It seems that fighting on the ground is not at all easier than fighting in the void...
