Chapter 62 Orbital Assault

“3, 2, 1!”

The armor at the bottom of the transport ship slowly unfolded to both sides, revealing the honeycomb-like structure inside, and the orbital assault capsule was placed in these hexagonal holes.

As the countdown ended, the electromagnetic locks that fixed the assault capsule were unlocked one after another, and the assault capsule slid into the launch channel below, and after a short acceleration in the channel, it rushed towards the planet below.

From a distance, hundreds of thousands of orbital assault capsules broke away from the transport fleet, like a heavy rain, covering the earth.

Although Monica had simulated hundreds of orbital airdrops in the learning machine, she was still a little excited when she really lay in the orbital assault capsule (hereinafter referred to as the airdrop capsule) for the first time.

Monica could clearly see the scene in front of her through the transparent shield. The airdrop capsule that could not be seen at a glance blocked the sky in front of her, and the blue sky below was getting closer and closer...

A violent shaking came, and the violent friction between the airdrop capsule and the atmosphere burned the shield in front of Monica's eyes into red.

"Current speed 3000m\sec, angle 2.5 degrees, expected to reach the ground in 13 minutes." The current data of the airborne capsule appeared in front of Monica.

Tens of seconds later, the scenery in front of Monica changed suddenly, and the vast sky began to appear light blue.

"We are about to enter the enemy's air defense firepower network!" Monica shouted to all the soldiers in the communicator.

As soon as the voice fell, beams of light crossed the sky, turning dozens of airborne capsules into ashes, followed by explosions all over the sky, and anti-aircraft missiles flew from the ground to the airborne capsules in the sky.

Countless flashing small light balls flew out from the airborne capsules and scattered into the sky. The flying anti-aircraft missiles were attracted by the light balls and flew to the side, but some of the airborne capsules were hit by missiles and turned into a ball of fireworks.

The fragments produced by the explosion of the airborne capsule shot out in all directions, smashing the shield in front of Monica.

"The integrity of the airborne capsule armor is 81%" the alarm sounded.

At this moment, dozens of red beams of light descended from the sky, burning the exposed anti-aircraft positions into ruins.

The loss of the airdrop chamber was greatly reduced, but it did not last long. The airdrop chamber group that had entered the low altitude was attacked by ancient anti-aircraft guns. The Alliance also pulled these ancient weapons that had been sealed for nearly a hundred years out of the warehouse and armed each group of soldiers.

Countless anti-aircraft shells hit the armor of the airdrop chamber, and groups of flames flashed on the armor.

"Armor integrity 52%!"

"Armor integrity 45%!"

"Armor completion is close to the safety threshold, and the airdrop chamber armor is about to fail!" The piercing alarm sounded in the airdrop chamber, and the shield in front of Monica began to crack.

"All airdrop chambers launch submunitions to cover the landing point!" Monica ordered calmly without any panic.

In an instant, dozens of tiny warheads were ejected from the bottom of all airdrop chambers and shot rapidly towards the ground.

A series of explosions sounded, and the area near the landing area of ​​the airdrop capsule had been cleared by the explosion of the warhead. The originally fierce anti-aircraft firepower dropped several levels in an instant!

As the airdrop capsule got closer and closer to the ground, red flames sprayed from the bottom of the airdrop capsule, which quickly reduced the speed of the airdrop capsule, and then slammed heavily on the ground, causing cracks in the surrounding ground.

However, Monica in the airdrop capsule did not feel much vibration, and the buffer wrapped around her absorbed most of the kinetic energy.

Accompanied by the exhaust sound, the airdrop capsule's shield was thrown out fiercely, and the transparent buffer flowed all over the ground and soon evaporated.

Monica pulled out the tearer rifle behind her and jumped out of the airdrop capsule. She rolled and half-knelt on the ground, holding the rifle and vigilantly scanning the surroundings.

"Confirmed safe!"

She waited for a moment but did not wait for her companion's reply. When she turned her head, she found that only her shield was intact in the entire airdrop capsule, and the shields of the other five soldiers had been broken.

Because the buffer in their capsule had already evaporated, the huge vibration during the final landing knocked the five people unconscious.

Monica threw out the warning drone, turned around and dragged five soldiers out of the airdrop chamber.

"All soldiers of the first regiment, gather at the Torch Building at twelve o'clock. I have five wounded soldiers here, and they will be here soon."

Monica pointed her arm at the soldiers lying flat on the ground and ordered the portable AI:

"Start the diagnostic program and connect their power armor."

A green light flashed, and green lights began to flash on the visors of several soldiers.

"Major Monica, these five soldiers have reached the third level of serious injuries. The existing medical conditions cannot be treated. They can only be treated by taking them back to the warship." The voice of the AI ​​sounded.

It seems that they can only be left here until after the war. Monica shook her head helplessly and turned to run towards the gathering place.

Soon she climbed over the layers of ruins; she came to the Torch Building. Thousands of soldiers had occupied the entire building, and from time to time, you can see the muzzle of a gun sticking out of the window.

Several soldiers on guard saw Monica and hurriedly saluted:

"Hello, Commander!"

Monica nodded slightly and said:

"With this building as the center, set up a defense circle with a radius of one kilometer and send people to guard. We must hold out until the heavy weapons support arrives!"

"Yes, sir!" Several soldiers turned and left, and hundreds of soldiers ran out of the building and quickly dispersed to the surroundings.

Monica walked into the Torch Building, which was supposed to be a high-end hotel. The entire lobby was decorated magnificently, but it was very messy due to the war.

The lobby was filled with supplies taken out of the airborne capsule by the soldiers, and rows of boxes were scattered on the ground. Monica came to the second underground floor from the stairs beside the lobby.

The second underground floor was an underground casino, but after the outbreak of the war, no one was in the mood to come and gamble, so all kinds of equipment were covered with dust. The original lounge was also temporarily used as a combat command center, and several soldiers were busy in it.

"How is it, when will the heavy weapons support arrive?" Monica walked in and asked the communications officer.

"Sir, the transport ship transporting heavy weapons said that the ground anti-aircraft firepower is still a bit strong, and we need to clear some anti-aircraft positions hidden in the building before we can land safely." The communications officer put down the communicator and replied to Monica.

Monica nodded: "We will go to clear the landing area now! Urge the transport fleet again, let them hurry up!"

After that, Monica drew out her weapon and walked out.

"Dispatch 800 people, target the air defense strongholds within a radius of 10 kilometers! The first squad, follow me!" Monica ordered into the communicator.

The airborne corps that received the order dispersed into squads and scattered around, and one of the squads came to meet Monica.

"Sir, you stay at the command center. It's better to leave the battle to us." The captain of the squad kindly suggested.

Monica frowned: "No, I'm not a vase! If I die, the first regiment will be commanded by the deputy commander!"

After that, Monica took the lead and walked to the front of the team. Several team members looked at each other and hurried to catch up.

Thank you for the reward from my idiot~~, the dead-solo dance. Brothers and sisters, you are very good at recommending today, and continue to be good tomorrow~
