The shining Shoko Toyokawa

Page 213

The GM 2 hurriedly disengaged from the flight pedals. The pilot was distracted for a moment and did not notice that the red MS had already pointed its rocket cannon at him.

He only saw a flash of fire on the full-circle screen, and the next moment he lost consciousness forever.

The girl was greatly encouraged when she destroyed a MS at the beginning of the battle.

'Five rounds left,'

She silently counted the number of bullets remaining in her beam rifle, and instead of aiming at the enemy plane at the front like she had just done, she aimed at a GM that was constantly firing at Rickdias.

Just like Maya had just told her, on the battlefield, seizing the opportunity is often more important than courage.

With the ballistics involved in the previous two times as a reference, the Jim 2, which was only concerned with venting its anger and avenging its teammates, was hit without any suspense. A large hole was shot out on the torso of the machine by the beam. Although it was unknown when it would explode and whether the pilot was still alive, it had completely lost its combat effectiveness.

In less than 30 seconds, he lost one-third of his combat power.

The remaining members of the two GM 2 teams no longer dared to attack recklessly.

The distance between the two sides was rapidly closing. Rickdias fired all the remaining 7 diffusion rounds in the magazine of the rocket launcher, but because the GMs were already prepared, he failed to achieve any new results. Only one diffusion round grazed the GM 2, causing slight damage.

The same is true for Gundam. When the enemy is on guard, it is not so easy to hit.

"No! Be careful, Maya-san!"

The remaining 5 beams were also quickly fired, and while the Gundam was changing its magazine, the 4 suppressed GMs found an opportunity to counterattack.

Under the cover of two teammates, two GMs drew their beam sabers and rushed towards Likdias.

At this moment, Likdias also drew out his beam saber, ready to fight them.

But when they rushed to the front, Likdias suddenly dived and showed the two beam pistols on his back.

Before the two unlucky bullets could react, they were shot into sieves by the two beam pistols mounted on the weapon.

They were not unaware that Likdias's beam pistol weapon mount had independent aiming capabilities.

But the battlefield changes rapidly, and not everyone can combine the intelligence they know to guess what the other side is going to do.

More importantly, this red MS is so fast and flexible, and the sense of oppression is so strong. Once you finally find a perfect opportunity, everyone will want to try it.

"Don't look around!"

The change happened too quickly, and in an instant the balance of forces was equalized. The girl took advantage of the moment when the two remaining Jims were distracted and shot at them continuously. One machine was scrapped on the spot, and the other one was a little slow to react and had one of its mechanical arms knocked off, and it quickly fled to the building materials belt next to it.

"Want to escape?!"

The girl aimed at it and saw that its route was erratic. Even if she fired the last beam, she probably wouldn't be sure of success. After thinking about it, she didn't pull the trigger. Mark Rabbit only had two spare magazines. Including this last beam, she only had 8 beams left.

"Maya-san, you were so reckless just now. What if you got hit?"

After the battle, the two men's flight pedals were intact.

"Time is urgent, we have to end the battle as soon as possible."

Maya controlled the aircraft and landed on the flight pedals of the cruise control again.

"So what will you choose next?"

Maya stared intently at the three warships that were already extremely clear on the full-circle screen.

As the force blocking this waterway, their mission is to hold back the Agogama.

However, Gundam and Lycodias showed their terrifying power of destroying 5 MS in one minute.

The commanders of the three warships now faced two choices. One was to have the two subsequent squadrons of mobile suits make a detour to attack the Agama. Given that the area was full of construction material belts, it would not be difficult for six mobile suits to bypass two mobile suits.

But if this happens, these three battleships will have to face the attack of two powerful MSs.

A battleship weighs tens of thousands of tons, while a MS weighs only a few dozen tons. The two may seem to be on different levels, but in the Unified War, there were many powerful men who achieved the feat of taking on a battleship with a single MS.

In the end, the commanders of the three battleships chose a more cautious approach. The two mobile suit teams that were already approaching quickly flew back to the battleship formation.

This was the worst option for the Argama. Even though its armor was decent, its long-range firepower was insufficient, making it impossible for the Argama to engage in a cannon-fire duel with the three enemy warships.

If you let your own MS attack the enemy ship, you will have to face a mixed double attack from the anti-aircraft firepower and the enemy MS.

If the Argama chooses to slow down and enter the building material belt to avoid the artillery bombardment, then their purpose of delaying time will be achieved.

The battle situation has fallen into the worst situation for Maya.

Chapter 19: Moving Forward on the Corpses and Bones

How to win in war?

Even kindergarten children who have played war games know the answer to this question:

Knock down the opponent!

But they were unaware of the price they had to pay to defeat the other party.

Sacrificing the lives of my companions, I march forward on the corpses and bones...

"hateful!"

The battle situation has fallen into the worst situation for Maya.

In the direction of Agama, there were little bits of light emanating, like stardust. They were the tail flames of the flight pedals.

At this point in the battle, the pilots on the Agama also understood the current situation and rushed to support without hesitation.

It was a happy thing to have someone support her, but Rencai felt that Maya seemed particularly depressed at the moment.

"What's wrong, Maya-san?"

"Nina, go back to the Argama for supplies first," Maya said, forcing a smile. "Didn't a mobile suit just escape? Going back for supplies will be a good opportunity to protect the Argama."

"Okay, I understand,"

Jinna was too focused on the battle and did not suspect anything. She manipulated the flight pedals to change direction. It was not until she almost brushed past the five mobile suits that came to support her that she realized why Maya still had a small amount of ammunition and propellant that she had hardly consumed and went back to resupply.

She looked back and saw a lonely light flying towards the huge dark ship.

What greeted the light on the ships were the dazzling Mega particle cannons, missiles with trailing wakes, and dense anti-aircraft firepower!

Before the support arrived, the red MS launched an attack alone!

Seeing that there was another MS on the deck of the Agama, the girl turned again without hesitation and pushed the flight pedals to the maximum thrust in the opposite direction of the battlefield!

But under the influence of inertia, the Gundam is still getting farther and farther away from the battlefield.

"How about this?!"

The girl pushed the thrust of some of the Gundam's nozzles to the limit. The Gundam, which was originally moving away from the battlefield, soon accelerated again and flew towards the battlefield.

"Maya-san, what are you thinking about?"

Thinking of the complicated expression on the blonde girl's face just now, the girl guessed the answer -

She wants to fight alone!

Why did she fight alone? Did she like being alone?

Renai didn't think that the blonde girl who subconsciously hugged her in her sleep liked being alone.

She...was simply afraid of her companions dying, so she chose to fight alone...

"Idiot, you'll use up your propellant quickly!"

Taoxiang's voice came over, "Leave Captain Maya to us for now. Don't worry about the other mobile suits and battleships. When you get a chance, pick the largest battleship and attack it. Do you understand?"

"But……"

A bad premonition lingered in the girl's heart.

"Since you've chosen to continue fighting, Renai, please listen to us adults. We are all prepared."

Natasha interrupted Renai.

"Everyone, we can't let Captain Maya have only good memories! Try to contain Caius's mobile suits and firepower to create opportunities for the Captain and the Gundam. Got it?!"

"Understood!"*4

…………

"Damn it, I'm getting weaker!"

Likdias struggled to navigate the fire net, the warning sounds of being locked on continued.

Maya charged at three battleships and six mobile suits alone, but she certainly wasn't seeking death.

She just wanted to try... to see if she could break through the fleet by herself like before.

But the truth is cruel. In the face of such intensive firepower,

No matter how flexible you are or how determined you are, the impossible is impossible.

She wanted to lure the MS out of the battleship's anti-aircraft firepower network to engage in battle, but unfortunately these people were not fooled, or perhaps they were ordered to defend the battleship, so they did not pursue her at all.

"Captain Maya, watch out for missiles!"

Natasha's communication came, and the next moment, more than ten anti-ship missiles flew towards the three warships.

The firepower originally tracking Likdias immediately became much less sparse, and a lot of anti-aircraft firepower was transferred to intercepting missiles.

"It's now!"

Maya seized this opportunity to charge forward, aiming at the nearest Salamis-class modified ship and firing three rockets in succession.

But the distance was still too far after all. With the joint interception of anti-aircraft firepower and MS, all three rockets were intercepted.

"All anti-ship missiles fired, jettison the flight pedals, and enter the enemy's air defense fire range!"

After firing the last wave of missiles, the five GM-2s almost simultaneously abandoned their flight pedals and dispersed, rushing towards the fleet from all directions.

The various firepower in the fleet emitted light, and in the dark universe, they were like moths flying towards a fire.

"Hurry! Hurry up!"

Maya removed all the safety limiters, and Likdias's speed increased a bit. In a universe without reference points, it seemed that he was several times faster.

Rickdias brushed past the beam several times. Unlike a beam rifle, it was a true battleship main gun!

The Mega particle beam it fired passed by, occupying most of the entire screen like a waterfall of light.

Not to mention being hit head-on, even in space without atmospheric deceleration, being hit by particles diffused from such a particle beam could cause fatal pinhole damage to the MS.

Before the fear of death caught up with her, Maya had already rushed to the Salamis-class modified ship on the right wing, aimed at the bridge and the front turret, and poured out all the remaining 4 rockets in the rocket barrel!

Using the debris and smoke from the explosion as a cover, Lykdias passed by the Salamis-class, which had basically lost its combat capability, but did not choose to attack the Magellan-class in the center of the fleet.

Instead, it went around the left wing of the fleet from below and attacked another Salamis-class ship.

The reason why they did not attack the Magellan class directly was that even a 300mm rocket would not be able to make this giant ship lose its combat effectiveness in a short period of time.

The most ideal fighting method is to get close enough and start hand-to-hand combat.

We have to deal with it before then! The remaining Salamis-class ship!

Although the operator of the anti-aircraft machine gun under the Salamis class discovered Likdias, Maya was already close enough.

She fired five rockets in succession, and the anti-aircraft firepower was unable to intercept them in time. The entire battleship was severely damaged, and even a small ammunition depot was detonated, causing a small-scale secondary explosion.

"Now it's just you!"

Maya turned her guns and attacked the last Magellan-class ship.

"Don't even think about stopping Captain Maya!" A Caius MS tried to stop him, but was shot into a fireball by the Thornless Jim 2.

But the young pilot of the Jim 2 had no time to rejoice in his first kill, nor to scream, before his life was forever frozen at that moment.

He was the third Stingless pilot to be shot down by anti-aircraft fire.

Maya remembered that his name was Lin Wei, and he had a baby face. When they were naming the organization just now, they suggested Mafti...

In the blink of an eye, most of the Jim 2s that came to support had been lost.

"Captain Maya, it's our turn to cover you from now on!"

Taoxiang's voice came from the communication.

Maya gritted her teeth, trying not to make any sound, and rushed towards the huge steel battleship that was like a mountain.

She was afraid that if she spoke, Taoxiang and Natasha would retreat.

If that's the case, what were the pilots who just sacrificed their lives for?!
