Chapter 303, Mechanical Throne
Cai Minjin was so angry that he was fuming, but he had to deploy his troops and attack with all his might.
Although, after hearing that the Alliance Army attacking from the north had received assistance from the Phoenix Regiment, the chances of winning this "race" were probably not high. But for this group of Astra Militarum, they would not surrender before the battle even started.
But some things cannot be changed by human will.
The troops he was able to mobilize to attack Blackbird City amounted to two large divisions, more than 70,000 people, who, under the cover of fierce artillery fire, fought a desperate battle with the enemy in front of them.
But the effect is not very good.
The troops suffered heavy losses due to their irrational and hasty attack.
While he was still thinking about whether to continue issuing orders requiring the troops to continue the attack at all costs, he heard the news from the northern front.
The Alliance's army, led by a squad of Space Marines, has entered the inner city of Blackbird City.
He sighed deeply, feeling somewhat desolate.
Although it was something I had expected, it still felt a bit uncomfortable.
However, he soon calmed down.
Just do your best and leave the rest to fate. He has tried his best, what can he do if others have Gundam?
No one can blame him.
At the same time, he also canceled the order for the troops to attack at all costs, and asked them to be patient and fight normally.
After failing to achieve the goal of getting into Blackbird City first, it would be a waste of time and effort to lose many lives for this purpose.
…
Blackbird City, in the core urban area.
Martins threw away the mechanical body hanging on the power sword in his hand.
It was a mechanical upper body with the face of Irón Fáció.
And in front of him was a huge machine.
This is Blackbird City's energy shield generator.
At this moment, the surrounding battles have basically come to an end. There are few remaining enemies, and they will soon be killed by the remaining Space Marines and the elite soldiers of the 10th Brigade.
And now, they are located at the bottom of the core urban area.
They did not immediately go to the upper level to find the real body of Iron Fachers. This matter was done by several infantry companies. Of course, it was not that these infantry companies could do the job, as that might involve unknown risks. All they had to do was to open up the road, determine the target location, encircle it, or cut off its retreat.
Later, Martins will lead the team to deal with it personally.
However, before that, he had to solve the problem with the shield generator first.
It's not that the existence of this thing has brought any obstacles to the Alliance's advance. That's not the case. The energy shield cannot defend against the approach of slow targets. The army did not encounter any problems when entering the inner city, that is, the shells could not be directly fired in. But under the leadership of the Space Marines, the vanguard has already entered, and the artillery followed and entered the shield range, so there is no need to worry about the shells being blocked.
What Martins was thinking about was how to dismantle this thing and move it back.
Although this is not the largest and most expensive shield that can cover an entire planet, it is already very rare to be able to cover a city.
The value of this item is at least four million tax coins and it was blown up on the spot. It was such a pity.
The Alliance's Weixing City is the industrial center of the entire planet. It will develop greatly in the future and needs something like this to protect it.
In fact, if possible, I would like every key city to be equipped with such a city-level energy shield.
At this price, it’s really hard to bear.
It would definitely be good if I could pick up a set now.
For this purpose, one of the Alliance's chief technology officers, Engine Prophet Hu Ke, also came here on a wind falcon. He began his research under the escort of a group of elite soldiers.
The main thing is to safely dismantle this city-level shield generator. This thing itself is very large, covering an area of 200 square meters and a height of 6 meters. It is very heavy and large. It is too difficult to transport the whole thing back, and there is also the fear of bumping into it. It is best to dismantle it as much as possible, transport it separately, and then reassemble it.
Martins exchanged a few words with Hu Ke, then watched the member of the Mechanicus work. He glanced around and saw that the war had subsided, so he knew he didn't need to stay here any longer.
However, in order to ensure that the work here can continue safely, Martins still left behind a small team of Phoenixes, led by Anato.
He himself led the main force to the upper area.
Here, several companies that were ordered to conduct reconnaissance upwards found it difficult to move forward after reaching a certain position.
The door where Iron Fachers's real body was located was heavily guarded.
The alliance soldiers were only ordered to clear the road and conduct reconnaissance, but were not required to capture the target. After discovering that the enemy's defenses were quite tenacious, the commanders of these teams did not let the troops fight desperately.
Set up heavy firepower, block the entrances and exits to prevent people from escaping, and send shells in from time to time.
The most critical problem should be left to the Space Marines to solve.
After Martins arrived with the Phoenixes, they took over the battle here. All the infantry turned into auxiliary roles. After the Space Marines opened the road, they were responsible for quickly following and occupying the passage, and then seeing if there were any remaining enemies... Oh, generally there weren't any, the Space Marines were not that rough at work.
If they keep clearing like this, no matter whether they are elite armed mechanical guards or automatic cannon guards hidden in a very insidious position, their final fate is to be torn into pieces.
Martins led the team to the main entrance of a steel gate.
He tried to push the door open, but to his surprise, it was not locked. Although it was a bit difficult, he still managed to push the door open.
When the door opened, he saw what was behind it:
In this huge space, there is a throne made of steel. Countless mechanical structures are exposed, and countless pipes, cables, and chains are interspersed in it, with blue electric light flashing continuously.
On the throne, sat a 'queen'.
Looking more closely, she was not sitting upright at all. Her body from the waist down was integrated with the mechanical throne below. Her upper body, which looked like a human, was just an image. Her eyes were flashing with blue electric light, and several cables extended from the back of her head to the end of the ceiling.
She seemed to be performing many complicated calculations, and the lightning was like countless messages being continuously sent out.
This scene shocked all the phoenixes that came in.
Many of them, who were called "interstellar" warriors, were actually born and raised here, and had never left the Wrath of the Owl. Their bodies and wills had already reached the level of interstellar warriors, but their knowledge was still not up to par.
Except for Martins.
He had seen so many strange and bizarre things.
He just confirmed it and knew that the upper body of the human woman in front of him looked like Iron Fachs.
"Bang."
With a gunshot, the heavy bomb in Martins' hand hit the throne at the bottom, causing an explosion.
Unlike the energy shield generator below, this heretical creation is of no use at all and the best way to deal with it is to destroy it immediately.
