Idle game leads to another world

It's outrageous to say that with starships flying all over the sky, they are still using trench warfare. It's a tribute to the classics.

But trench warfare is used not because this thing works well, but because there is really no other way.

Once the orbit of a habitable planet is occupied by the enemy, the troops left on the surface will become sitting ducks, and there is no exception at all.

With solid fortifications, they may be able to withstand one or two orbital bombings. If there is nothing, it will be a complete massacre.

Digging trenches is actually just doing the best one can do.

There was a slight bulge in the eardrum, followed by a hazy scream from outside the Swan.

Dui and Cao Wei both saw something flashing from the west to the horizon, but the human eye could not capture its dynamics at all.

Then came the loud explosion, the mushroom cloud rising into the sky, and the shock wave that made the Swan tremble slightly.

The landing point of the orbital bombardment was still far away from the Swan, but it was precisely because of the distance that the mushroom cloud could be fully reflected in the field of vision.

Then, a terrible whistling sound was heard again in the sky. This time, the two saw several groups of things emitting intense red light suddenly exploded in the sky above their heads. At first glance, it looked like a huge firework exploded.

These groups of intense red light scattered and flew to different places. Then they were smaller than before, but continuous explosions were heard.

Those were sub-missile warheads for orbital bombing, which were somewhat similar to cluster bombs and could attack multiple targets at a time.

Because their guidance technology was very primitive and they still used gyroscope guidance, their accuracy was very poor and they could only attack large ground facilities. Even an eight-kilometer-long starship could not be hit accurately.

These sub-missile warheads fell on positions, military bases, nearby railroad tracks, and cities.

Dui thought that the warhead that hit the city might have been due to a guidance error, and its flight trajectory in the sky was not right, while Cao Wei next to him immediately raised her hands and cheered.

"Kill them all! Keep smashing!"

If she hadn't been tied to her seat with a seat belt, she would have jumped up and cheered.

Dui would not point his gun at civilians, but he would not refute them. The flames of revenge were crazy. Even if the bullet that hit the city was intentional, there was nothing to be surprised about.

Since the people of the Red Maple Republic supported their government, they naturally had to bear the consequences of their support. Dui only hoped that this war would not get too out of control.

At this time, the Swan had reached the low-altitude area, and it could be felt that the vibration caused by the descent had almost disappeared, and the altitude was approaching stability.

The ground position had just been bombarded by orbit, and the anti-aircraft firepower was obviously much sparse, which facilitated the landing of the assault landing ship.

Dui felt that it was time to use the anti-aircraft guns to attack the remaining enemy forces on the ground, but he had just grabbed the control stick again when he received a notice from the bridge.

"The captain asked me to take a few people to the Manta to provide close-in fire support. Are you going?"

Dui asked, but Cao Wei didn't listen at all. She was like a devout fanatic, excited about the city on fire in the distance.

Dui thought about it and decided to forget it. Cao Wei's current mental state was not suitable for the mission, so let her stay in the anti-aircraft gun room.

–--——----

The number of anti-aircraft gunners on the Swan was still not full, but there was still a certain redundancy.

After all, an anti-aircraft gunner could control several guns, and a few fewer people would not affect the combat effectiveness of the Swan.

Dui received the order and immediately found a few people to control the anti-aircraft guns on the top of the Swan. Because they came to the ground environment, the anti-aircraft guns on the top were not used much.

Then he took a few people to the hangar of the Swan.

It was also very busy here, and many mechanics were busy pushing the materials in the container to the side of the airlock.

There were only two pilots on the Swan, Li Chengxi and Hall, and the maintenance task of the carrier-based aircraft was very easy, so the hangar of the Swan was filled with some materials used by the ground forces, making the best use of them.

Dui found Fang Lanyin who was busy. She patted the tail hatch of the Manta and said:

"It has been modified. When you go up, remember to fasten your seat belts as soon as possible. Brother Li's driving may be rough."

Dui had heard of Li Chengxi, but had never seen him. However, the military sent Li Chengxi a medal not long ago, which almost had to be packed in a box.

Sitting on the shuttle driven by this uncle, safety is definitely guaranteed.

The Manta had been modified before, or armed.

The original cargo hold at the tail was removed and a fire support cabin was reinstalled.

This thing has five shooting holes and can be equipped with heavy machine guns, grenade launchers, rotary machine guns, airborne ion beams, shaped charge bombs, and even melt weapons or perform close-range bombing missions.

Eight people are needed to operate the weapons, two of whom are responsible for maintaining communication with ground forces to provide close-range fire support in a timely manner, and another person is a loader who is responsible for handling simple faults such as jamming.

Fang Lanyin briefly told Dui a few precautions, and then several people boarded the Manta.

Dui held the armrest of a grenade launcher on the rear hatch, and he looked back to see that the cockpit door was closed.

"Everyone sit tight, set off immediately."

Li Chengxi's voice sounded in the cabin, and Dui gave up his curiosity to study this mysterious pilot and prepared for battle with his comrades.

The airlock opened, and the Manta rushed out first, followed by the people in the hangar throwing the supplies out of the airlock.

Dui saw many containers falling from the Swan, which was going away, and the parachutes opened automatically in mid-air. These supplies would help the ground troops.

Speaking of ground troops, Dui only saw that many assault landing ships had successfully landed, and even the ground troops had begun to build forward bases.

If he had not boarded the Swan, Dui, as a lieutenant of the Marine Corps, would have become a member sitting on the assault landing ship. He had a very good impression of the army.

However, when he was sighing, a shell of unknown caliber hit Dui's sight. The bunker just built with quick-drying foam exploded instantly, and it seemed that the ammunition box was also detonated, causing the surrounding soldiers to be instantly scattered.

Dui clenched the handle of the grenade launcher, and he warned himself to stay calm and not be blinded by hatred.

At this time, the Swan, which had already moved away, started the main gun. Dui saw the main gun of the Light Spear fired, but due to the angle, he could not see what the main gun was aiming at.

A moment later, a deafening explosion sounded from a distance, and the Manta was also shaken by the shock wave.

"It may be a bit bumpy next, are your seat belts fastened?"

Dui heard Li Chengxi's voice and looked back at his comrades:

"Everything is ready."

"A three-plane formation came to talk to us, don't be afraid, it will be resolved soon."

Dui's breathing suddenly stagnated. The Manta was equipped with a tail weapon bay, and its maneuverability must have decreased a lot compared to before. It is no match for aircraft in the atmosphere.

But when he thought of Li Chengxi's record, Dui put his heart back in his stomach.

It should be... okay?
