Chapter 320 05.0319: "The Horrifying Bombing"

A huge roar penetrated the cold air and came from above the head. The sharp sonic boom accompanied by strong winds and shock waves shook the snow.

Horatio was riding in a Taurus assault vehicle, and the amplitude of the shaking increased visibly.

The clear sky was deep blue, and three stars generously illuminated the earth, but at this moment the convoy was shrouded in shadows, as if the storm clouds had returned again.

The scouts raised their heads. It was indeed a storm, a destructive storm composed of the void fighters of the Imperial Navy Air Force. They were streaking across the sky in clusters, forming huge shadows that blocked out the sky and the sun.

The Fury interceptors in the fleet began to break away from the formation and enter a dive posture.

They are like extremely swift falcons, their movements are filled with cruel joy when hunting, and their wings are full of bombs that spread annihilation.

The wingtips whistled through the wind, as if announcing the coming of death to the enemies of the God-Emperor.

"False Emperor fighter planes! Shoot them down for me! Hans, what are you still standing there for! Get out of here and unscrew the cannon!"

As the rebel officers inside the watchtower yelled at the top of their lungs, the rebel soldiers were kicked out one by one, braving the freezing wind and being driven onto the freezing cold gun mounts that had not had time to be de-iced and maintained.

The moment they sat down, their clothes were stuck to the metal seats. Their hands gripping the cranks slightly melted the ice and snow covering them, but the moisture on the surface froze again in an instant.

A pair of flesh hands are also connected to the rotating crank and are inseparable.

The cold wind mixed with ice particles rushed in from the openings in the uniforms, and the burning pain instantly spread throughout the soldiers' bodies.

After paying such a price, the rebel soldiers were horrified to find that the entire rotating seat and crank were frozen, and the anti-aircraft gun turret could not turn at all!

The loader also discovered the problem at this moment. The turret could not be loaded at all. The slot was completely blocked by frozen ice and could not be chiseled through.

Soon, in the sky.

By adjusting the throttle, the sonic boom cloud ring fades away from the fuselage.

The pilots opened the flaps and reduced the speed to a range suitable for dropping bombs.

The first wave of Fury interceptors, targeting the small anti-aircraft firepower, launched the attack first.

In an instant, death-strike missiles, high-explosive bombs, solidified promethium bombs, thermal-melt bombs, and all kinds of deadly weapons poured down on the light air defense platform.

The rebel soldiers on the gun mount screamed in despair as they watched the bombs whistling overhead, but there was no escape and they could only watch death approach.

Fire, extremely hot rain fell from the sky and landed on the frozen Hydra gun mount.

Heart-wrenching screams rang out instantly, and at that moment, the bodies of the rebel soldiers frozen on the gun mounts finally gained freedom.

The only difference is that their freedom comes in the form of being forever fused together in molten iron at thousands of degrees.

Horatio looked back and saw that the small anti-aircraft towers in the distance were like beacons with billowing smoke and black spots falling from them.

The rebel soldiers, their bodies on fire, jumped down in panic. Even though they landed in the snow, the flames of punishment would not let them go of the sin of rebellion they carried.

"This is the bomber leader. We have arrived above the bombing target. Maintain formation. Bombardier, control of the bomber is now in your hands." Communication signals were being transmitted on the Starhawk bomber formation channel.

The bombardier immediately took over the aircraft's heading control.

The door of the Starhawk bomber opened, and more than 40 heavy bombs on the brackets were ready for action.

Although the equivalent of these bombs is slightly weaker in terms of lethality against battleship-level void ships, they are still extremely deadly hammers of destruction for ground targets.

When the bombardier operates the special sight to aim at the target, his palm moves the small and exquisite lever.

"Bomb out of the cabin!"

The fixing device in the bomb bay loosened instantly, and bombs flashing with a faint blue light fell freely one after another.

These bombs are filled with destructive plasma.

Using bombs as hammers and the earth as anvils, countless dark blue hammers fell on the medium-sized fortress, bursting into bright blue flames.

Under the powerful plasma torrent, the load-bearing part of the fortress was destroyed, and the building began to collapse structurally, turning the Earth-shaking Cannon and Sky Eagle Macro Cannon inside into molten iron.

The fires caused by the carpet bombing were so severe that the temperature of the nearby frozen ground suddenly rose by several degrees.

The ice and snow near the fortress melted rapidly. The snow water mixed with the mud, wrapping up the charred corpses and sinking them into the mud. The collapsed remains of the buildings sat on the ground like a monument mocking the rebellious heretics.

The walls and surrounding facilities of the heavy fortress were attacked by a combination of Fury interceptors and Starhawk bombers.

The Fury bombers used missiles to directly destroy the 210mm heavy artillery on the outer wall. These heavy war creations distributed at the eight corners of the fortress were turned into raw materials by the missiles in an instant without firing a single shot.

Then the Starhawk bombers dropped devastating melta bombs, solidified promethium bombs, and terrifying cluster submunitions on the internal buildings.

Horatio was now 5 kilometers away from the heavy fortress.

The tire of the assault vehicle he was in had just been hit by a near miss bullet from a Lemanus tank. Although the power armor blocked the flying fragments, the wheel had undergone a certain degree of deformation under the impact, and the deformation became more serious as the vehicle was speeding.

"Report to the commander, the power components are damaged!" "Drive anywhere you want as long as it doesn't flip over! Keep some distance from the pursuers! If you don't want to be killed in an air raid!"

Horatio gritted his teeth and kept pulling the trigger of the grenade launcher, launching the armor-piercing grenade in a beautiful parabola onto the roof of the Chimera armored vehicle that was chasing him from behind.

Fragmentation grenades exploded overhead, followed by screams and wails in the wind.

The scene inside was probably horrific. In the best case scenario, the broken limbs were stuck to the walls of the car.

After taking care of the immediate target, he began to message the others.

"All teams, raise red smoke bombs as a sign of friendly forces! Pilots will avoid you when bombing." After saying that, he picked up a long red tube, lit it, and inserted it next to the turret, pulling out a long trail of red smoke.

Red signal smoke also appeared from several Taurus assault vehicles.

"Go ahead, girls. The commander's data has been sent to your Cogito array. Except for vehicles with red signal smoke, all other vehicles on the ground will be killed without mercy. The hunt for the 'rabbits' has begun!"

"Happy hunting, Squadron Leader!" the female pilots responded excitedly in unison.

They couldn't wait to launch the Death Strike Missile as the opening fireworks.

The screams of death passed overhead.

A black shadow flashed across the top of the hatch of the Chimera where Horatio was shooting. The next second, the entire car body exploded and burned from the inside out. Broken parts and transmission axles flew east and west, turning into a flaming iron coffin that rolled out of control.

The deafening whistling sound came from far away and got closer. The scouts could already see the Sky Eagle Squadron flying in formation overhead.

The eight fighter planes were divided into groups, one in front and one behind.

The pursuing vehicles pouring out of the city had nowhere to hide on the vast flat snowfield. With the enhanced eyesight of the pilots, they could easily lock onto them visually from dozens of kilometers in the air.

The fighter planes began to dive, and their laser cannons flashed alternately, like an orchestra playing in unison, strafing the targets on the ground.

The noble 4-piercing laser on the tabletop will mercilessly melt any prey it touches into a mixture of carbon and iron.

Many rebel infantrymen abandoned their speeding vehicles in panic and fled. The lucky ones who survived the fall walked on the deep snow that covered their ankles and even knees, moving slowly forward as if they were in mud.

"'Little Captain', be careful, the big sisters are about to drop bombs, don't take them head on, you can't handle it~"

The female pilot unscrupulously told provocative jokes in the two-person channel, and the content and tone were extremely consistent with her unrestrained appearance.

"It's big and rich! Try the Skyhawk 500kg bomb, heretic!"

Fasha smiled coolly and maliciously, pulled the lever, and a group of bombs flew down. The small spiral on the tail of the bomb body rotated at high speed, adjusting the falling trajectory.

Boom! The shell hit the ground, creating a deep crater, and the shell was inserted into the snow next to the rebel vehicle.

boom!
Several towering mushroom clouds exploded in the sky, and the blinding glare even caused Horatio's eyepieces to automatically activate anti-dizziness protection.

"Alert: Atmospheric foehn detected"

Immediately afterwards, a scorching wave of air rolled in, accompanied by an alarm popping up in Horatio's eyepiece.

A strong gust of hot wind pushed the Taurus assault vehicle, which was running at full speed, forward, causing its rear wheels to stagger and hang in the air.

The scorching aftermath licked the surface of Horatio's power armor, and his skin felt slightly hot even through the layers of protection.

This is just a tiny aftermath of the huge amount of heat energy generated by the mixed release of 500 kg of hot melt and high explosive bombs.

It's like this even from a distance, not to mention those who are right in the middle of the explosion point.

The explosion directly melted more than 500 square meters of snow and burned the land below into red dry gravel.

Such a terrifying killing weapon, Skyhawk 1 alone can fire four more rounds, two rounds per round.

Not to mention that there were seven other Skyhawk Squadron interceptors nearby providing close ground support.

"Yeah!" The Hell's Vanguards cheered excitedly as they watched the Imperial Navy Air Force speeding past their heads and attacking the enemy.

The mushroom cloud of fire and the huge waves fueled their emotions. At this moment, everyone knew that they would return to the ship safely.

Faced with the Imperial Navy's absolute air superiority, the other rebel vehicles did not dare to chase any further and turned around to escape back to the fortress.

But they no longer have that opportunity.
