Chapter 346 05.0345: "Fiery Air-Ground Joint Attack"

The ammunition base is an ammunition supply and carrying system built on a certain weapon.

This number is usually set based on the theoretical amount of ammunition a single weapon would need for one day of combat, and the ammunition base for each weapon is different.

通常，星界军的133毫米撼地炮弹药以80发为1基数，180毫米撼地炮60发为1基数，203毫米撼地炮以30发为1基数。

When facing different battles such as offense and defense, the ammunition base carried and supplied by the artillery is also different. The offense fluctuates around 10 ammunition bases, and the defense fluctuates around 20 ammunition bases.

Generally speaking, when targeting enemy mobile targets, the fire support unit is called for with 0.2 ammunition base.

Because most of their artillery pieces have a base of 60 rounds, 1 bases are usually 0.2 rounds.

Only when you discover fixed high-value units such as forward combat bases, logistics supply centers, front-line military stations, front-line aviation landing and supply points, enemy command posts, etc.

Artillery will use half to one ammunition base, fixed shooting parameters, and rapid fire coverage to achieve the effect of destroying the enemy's high-value fixed targets and their surrounding defensive positions with sudden and fierce firepower.

After delivering firepower, the artillery will move to the second preset position built by the engineers to avoid enemy counter-artillery fire.

"Calibrate artillery parameters! Adjust firing range! 1 base number, fire!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!!
As the artillery officers shouted orders, the empire's thunder hammers struck, and the deafening roar of artillery swept across the earth. The muzzle fire clouds blew away the cold wind blowing in from afar.

"Wuhu~Go to hell, heretic!" David Betty von Ravensburg, the second son of the legendary Lord Admiral's family, pushed the power pulley to the maximum output and rushed towards the rebels excitedly.

"Hey! Don't rush so fast, kid!" Harvey shouted at him.

But David Beatty, who was already in a high state of emotion and was busy firing his hot-wire volley gun everywhere, was not going to listen to his shouting and rushed forward alone without looking back.

Horatio noticed this detail and gave him a separate turning path.

Although David Betty didn't know what Huo Touer meant, he still followed the instructions and turned.

The next second, a huge 203mm shell landed not far in front of him, in the center of the enemy's artillery position.

"Ouch!"

The suddenly expanding air wave splashed him with muddy water from melted snow, even blocking his eyepiece. A severed Hydra gun barrel flew down in front of him and crushed his roller skates as it bounced.

"Ah!" With a scream, he lost his balance and fell to the ground like a dog chewing mud. His whole body turned forward 180 degrees with his head as the center, and he fell heavily into the mud of the artillery pit which was several meters deep with great force. He felt the warm touch inside.

"I told you to keep them all. Can't you see Captain Horatio's artillery warning beacon?"

"Ugh..." David Betty, dizzy in the flooded blast pit, struggled to get up, groaning in pain. Fortunately, he had the power armor to protect him, otherwise he would have at least broken bones and limbs after this round, and he would have to lie down for a month.

At the same moment, more than a dozen fixed strategic targets behind enemy lines were hit by fierce artillery fire from the Astra Militarum.

These artillery pieces were like having a perspective, and with an accuracy that the rebels could not understand, they accurately hit many important rear facilities of the enemy, which were enough to affect the entire battle situation in Montachia Mountain.

Just as Harvey was about to pull David Beatty out of the pit.

boom!
Even with the protection of helmets, everyone was knocked to the ground by the sudden shock wave.

Less than 3 kilometers away from the artillery position, in the rebel combat base responsible for ammunition logistics supply, thousands of tons of refined promethium and countless ammunition stored there suffered a serious explosion under the salvo of more than a dozen heavy artillery that the Astra Militarum focused on.

The blazing promethium barrel was blown thirty or forty meters high, dragging a long tail of flame, forming a brilliant firework in the air.

The gust of air instantly blew Harvey, who was wearing power armor, and David Betty, who was half pulled out of the scorched earth mud pit, into the crater. This time, the two of them fell into the mud together.

"Ah! Ah! God! Save me!" The conspicuous explosion dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the defenders of the enemy position, and there was widespread wailing.

At this moment, most of the rebels' heavy equipment and artillery had been damaged to varying degrees.

Even though some equipment and hardware were still intact, the remaining soldiers on these positions had no desire to fight again after being bombarded by the continuous heavy artillery fire of the Astra Militarum, and the supply chain of logistics supplies suffered a setback.

Brigade Headquarters.

"'Little Captain' ~ We have arrived at the battlefield ~" Captain Fasha's voice came from the communication sound array.

The aftermath of the explosion had not yet subsided when bursts of sonic booms were heard in the atmosphere above their heads, causing the ladies who were serving tea and chatting to cover their eyes with their large sun hats and look up at the sky again.

Those are rows of swift eagles in the blue sky. The elite pilots of the entire Sky Eagle Squadron will be responsible for the first-tier close-ground fire strike missions.

"We arrived just in time, Captain Fasha. Most of the enemy's anti-aircraft artillery positions have been destroyed by our Astra Militarum artillery. If you can see the highlighted marks on the mountain, please don't be surprised. That is your target, the mountain fortress group.

I have marked the approach and departure positions of the aircraft for you using beacon projection. The detailed parameter table has been sent to the Thinker array of your aircraft by my deputy, Lieutenant Collingwood. Please pay attention to receive it. "

"Okay, okay~ Commander, leave it to us! Yahoo~!" Veronica, who had been promoted to captain, shouted in the channel.

"Got it! 'Little Captain', we will deal with those bunkers!" Squadron Leader Anya Fasha responded with the laziness of a female leopard before hunting.

The female pilots led the Skyhawk Squadron to bear the brunt of the attack.

She lightly pressed the joystick, causing the plane to dive downward, and a wedge-shaped golden flame tore through the air around the fuselage. A smooth and delicate honey-colored skin was revealed at her wrist, as if carrying the rich aroma of dark chocolate.

The entire squadron of eight fighter jets were like swords of punishment falling from the sky, drawing perfect arcs in the air and diving straight down.

In the pilots' field of vision, the enemy bunkers on the mountain were clearly outlined in bright spots. The target, which was originally somewhat difficult to find, was now perfectly exposed to the pilots' eyes.

The 40-meter-long Fury interceptor carried a full cabin of heavy rockets for this fire support mission.

Whizzing! Whizzing!
The female pilots rushed straight into the canyon of the pass and fired quick-cement demolition bombs at the quick-cement and fine steel bunkers on the mountain.

This is a large rocket equipped with a refined gold earth-penetrating warhead. The projectile is huge, four to five meters long, and can only be carried by heavy aircraft vehicles.

It has amazing penetration and is designed to destroy permanent fortifications.

Under the powerful propulsion of the power unit, the refined gold component at the head of the projectile can crash into the bunker at a speed of Mach 3, and use the refined gold warhead to chisel a large hole in the surface of the quick-concrete bunker.

Then, the first layer of the tandem warhead controlled by the delayed fuze will explode the last part of the quick-concrete layer after the penetration depth reaches 6 meters, bringing a round of baptism of quick-concrete fragments collapsed inside the fortifications to the internal defenders.

Finally, the main projectile rushed in through a fresh passage and entered the bunker.

The main warhead of the 34kg hot-melt rocket will bring an incredibly powerful fiery hell to the interior of the bunker, and no matter whether dead or alive, will be spared.

This method of attack can also preserve the main structure of the bunker relatively intact, so that it can still play a certain role after the Astra Militarum Army occupies and repairs it.

The pilots of the Fury interceptors used ballistic computers to quickly aim at the landing point, then pressed the trigger buttons one by one to launch the rockets.

The aircraft also passed through the pass at an extremely high speed, almost at the same time as the rocket.

call--!
The strong winds stirred up by the fleet of planes as they flew over the canyon blew away the rebels who were blocking the Astra Militarum on the ground, and also lifted the Scottish skirts of the Highland Guards, revealing their thick, hairy thighs.

"F**K! You rude flying yakshas! You better kill those bastards for us! Otherwise, this matter will never end!"

The tall and ferocious Highland Guards, their bodies covered in blood, hurriedly pulled down their Scottish skirts and raised their middle fingers to the passing planes with saliva flying.

On the communication channel, one could hear the female pilots led by Veronica giggling as they looked at the group of naked men on the ground.

Dozens of rockets hit the fortress on the mountain, and the firing points inside came to an abrupt halt as if the pause button was pressed.

The disturbing and death-threatening sounds of gunfire finally stopped.

The Sky Eagle Squadron that passed through the pass emptied the ammunition tanks of air-launched high-speed rockets at the rebel convoy on the road.

Hundreds of small Honeycomb rockets were fired at a long line of trucks and armored vehicles on the ground.

Anya Fasha was the first to bear the brunt of the attack. She lowered the nose of her plane and dived to the ground according to the air raid entry point planned by Horatio for the Skyhawk Squadron through the war sand table.

The laser cannon on the fuselage fired at a very high rate of fire, slicing apart the armored targets on the road one by one, as simply and crudely as a meat cleaver cutting open a tin can.

On the ground, smoke was coming out of the roof of the modified armored vehicle that had been strafed. Rebel crew members with flames all over their bodies kept jumping out of it. Not long after, they lay down on the road, motionless.

The fighter planes flying close in the air brought strong air currents, which blew the charred corpse on the ground like tumbleweeds, causing it to roll twice.
