Chapter 138: Ambushing the Enemy Fleet

~7 min read 1,365 words

Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.

The frontal battle and the detachment battle were both quite lively, while Li Boyong was still waiting in the transport container piloting the Flag.

And Wang Liumei was piloting the transport container, maintaining silent navigation, carefully moving slowly toward the predetermined position.

There, there was the coalition fleet.

Originally according to the plan, Li Boyong would rendezvous with the arriving Lockon to launch a strike against the enemy fleet.

But now the expected time had passed, yet there was no sign of any green particle stream approaching; it seemed something must have delayed Lockon.

"The operation time has arrived; it looks like I have to do it myself."

Li Boyong contacted Wang Liumei via internal communication. "Hang anti-ship equipment on the Flag; you can do that, right?"

He didn't know what happened to Lockon, but Li Boyong still intended to continue the attack on the enemy fleet according to the plan.

He was very familiar with this kind of anti-ship attack mission and was confident in completing the mission in Lockon's absence.

Moreover, the anti-aircraft fire distribution of old-era warships in the 00 world had major flaws, and now the enemy fleet had no MS team protection, so the difficulty of the mission was not high.

"Understood, I will start operating immediately."

Wang Liumei, in the transport ship's pilot seat, turned her chair and began to operate the console beside her, where she could control the mechanical arms inside the container to perform equipment changes and simple maintenance on the machines inside.

Soon, two medium anti-ship missile pods were hung on the left and right sides of the Flag.

Immediately after, the top of the transport container was opened, and the Flag, equipped with anti-ship equipment, was pushed out of the container by the auxiliary arm; the Flag successfully entered the launch state.

"After I depart, you find a debris belt to hide according to the plan; after successfully breaking the enemy fleet, I will find you to rendezvous."

Before departing, Li Boyong instructed Wang Liumei.

"Understood; you be careful too, otherwise if you die, Sister Shihe will probably be sad."

Wang Liumei replied faintly, then released the Flag from the auxiliary arm.

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon."

Li Boyong pushed the control stick, and the Flag began to accelerate toward the enemy fleet, while Wang Liumei subsequently manipulated the transport container to move into a nearby debris belt.

"Colonel, a Flag detected behind, bearing 45.20.96; presumed to be that support machine belonging to Celestial Being."

On the bridge of the coalition fleet's flagship, the sensor operator, after detecting Li Boyong's Flag, reported to Colonel Manekin, who was responsible for command, in a panic.

"The distance is too close; why was it only detected now?"

Manekin turned back and scolded, then said calmly: "Don't panic; the attack on the fleet was also within expectations; immediately let Second Lieutenant Biyaji sortie."

Although this Iron Lady, famous in the AEU army, could still maintain composure, she couldn't help but break into a cold sweat in her heart; the distance at which the Flag was discovered was truly too close to the fleet.

"Haha, it really was guessed by the Russian Bear."

Saachez, who had been waiting in the GN-X II since the battle began, heard the sortie order and couldn't help but laugh. "A Flag? It seems I can settle that score from Azadistan with the other party; let me vent the resentment of being excluded from the battlefield."

"Hey! Maintenance team, hurry up and let me out!"

"It's not your turn to talk nonsense; little ones, hurry up and work; the enemy is too close."

There was a flurry of chaos in the hangar of the Virginia-class, and the GN-X II was immediately dispatched, but it was ultimately one step slower than Li Boyong.

Facing the three Virginia-class ships in a wedge formation, Li Boyong's Flag approached at high speed from the side; he chose a very tricky angle, and the anti-aircraft fire of the three warships couldn't cover this position at all.

This allowed Li Boyong to aim calmly, then launch the six large anti-ship missiles in the anti-ship missile pods.

That's right, it was the kind of thing the terrorists had intended to use to attack the Human Reform League's orbital space station back then.

Looking rough, but winning in huge power, it had extremely strong destructive power against large targets.

"Missile six, approaching rapidly! On a route that cannot be intercepted!"

On the bridge of the Virginia-class, the radar operator's sharp voice stimulated Colonel Manekin's eardrums.

Colonel Manekin on the captain's seat was silent helplessly; no matter how excellent her command ability was, at this time, she could only wait for the verdict of fate.

If the bridge was hit, everything would be in an instant...

Continuous explosions and impacts were transmitted through the hull; Colonel Manekin confirmed the safety of the bridge for the first time, then immediately reacted: "Immediately confirm the damage situation of each ship, and let Second Lieutenant Biyaji sortie immediately."

"Ship No. 3 is heavily damaged, unable to sail, and is abandoning ship."

"Ship No. 2 is lightly damaged and can continue to fight."

"This ship's engine was hit and the sixth blockade zone was hit; there is a fire inside the ship."

"Confirmed that Second Lieutenant Biyaji's machine successfully sortied and was not affected by the missile attack."

The combat controller immediately began to report the situation.

Manekin waved her hand and ordered: "Immediately activate damage control inside the ship, leave the enemy machine to the second lieutenant, and send the fleet's situation to Lieutenant Colonel Sergei, asking him to send a squad of GN-Xs to return for defense."

"Understood."

Beep, beep, beep; Sergei, who was commanding the battle on the front line, soon received the fleet's telegram.

"Colonel Manekin was careless; it was actually still succeeded by that guy Li Boyong."

"Squad E, immediately return to the rear fleet and execute defense missions."

With the departure of a squad of GN-Xs, the advantage Sergei had finally obtained through targeted tactics against the Gundams was wiped out again.

And on the other side, Li Boyong, who succeeded in attacking the fleet, encountered an unexpected trouble.

"This shape... an advanced model of the GN-X?"

Looking at an MS that sortied from the damaged enemy warship, the machine style that was not exactly the same as the GN-X, Li Boyong was a bit puzzled.

I didn't expect the coalition to have a trick up their sleeve here; did the Bear Uncle guess my target?

"However, if it's only one machine."

Li Boyong manipulated the Flag to discard the empty missile pods.

The missile attack effect was good, but it only finished off one enemy ship.

If there was only one GN-X, he felt he could try to finish off this GN-X, and then carry out a secondary strike on the warships.

But clearly, "I can kill" is sometimes also an illusion of life.

"Sure enough, it's that Flag from back then; before fighting the Gundam, let me have you as an appetizer."

Saachez piloted the GN-X II and began to intercept Li Boyong, continuously firing at the charging Flag with his beam rifle.

"Ugh, the shooting is so accurate."

Li Boyong hurriedly pulled the Flag to dodge narrowly, then began to exchange fire with Saachez.

But in the maneuvering shooting battle, Li Boyong soon felt that he was gradually falling into a disadvantage.

It seems the enemy is a bit tricky; Li Boyong decisively gave up the plan for a secondary attack on the warships and turned to retreat into the surrounding debris belt.

"Haha, want to leave after hitting?"

Saachez naturally wouldn't give up, piloting the machine to chase, "Leave it for me!"

"What is going on with this suddenly appearing machine?"

Li Boyong looked at the GN-X II chasing closely behind, his heart filled with unwillingness for failing to achieve the expected goal, and also vigilance for the machine behind him.

This kind of Great Sword equipment, clearly close-combat equipment, yet the pilot's shooting was so precise.

And this feeling of being suppressed in technology... ===== CHAPTER 139 =====
