Zanskar's desperate breakout!
Chapter 1738 Zanskar's desperate breakout!
The instant the beam sword struck the beam shield, Kronocle seized the opportunity, controlling his Zoroat to launch a flying kick that struck the V Gundam in the waist, sending it flying.
Despite taking the hit head-on, Huso endured the dizziness caused by the impact and controlled the V Gundam to activate the beam shield on its left arm. While using it to defend against possible attacks that might follow, he also drove the V Gundam to use the head-mounted Vulcan cannon to sweep the air and force Cronokel's Zoroat back.
"Is this guy really a child?"
Unable to capitalize on the momentum and completely destroy the V Gundam, Kronokl stared solemnly at the impenetrable V Gundam.
Huso Ebin's existence was no secret within the Holy Military Alliance; in fact, he was quite well-known through some intelligence channels.
But this meant nothing to the battle-hardened soldiers of the Zanskar Empire.
At best, it's nothing more than a self-aggrandizing charade by the Holy Military Alliance.
It wasn't until after the fight that Kronokel realized how serious the misunderstandings his people had about the V Gundam pilots were.
"But so what?"
Kronokel's mind raced with countless thoughts, but they were all swept away by his murderous intent.
If we can eliminate Huso here, then the future of the Zanskar Empire will be one less formidable enemy to hinder it.
However, before Kronokel could launch another attack, Tasilo's communication suddenly rang.
"Lieutenant Kronokol, return to base immediately! Hand over that Gundam to the MS squad dispatched by Lieutenant Colonel Duro."
"what?"
Kronokel keenly noticed the change in Tassil's expression.
"Time is of the essence! Return to the mothership immediately! Hurry!"
As soon as Tasilo finished speaking, Kronokel saw a signal from friendly forces appear in the lower left corner of the screen.
"Lieutenant Kronokel! This place is now in our hands! Long live the Empire! Long live Mariaism!"
The other side didn't exchange many words, but after saying that, they surrounded the V Gundam in a pincer formation.
This scene,
Such a dialogue,
This greatly shocked Kronokel.
Yes.
As a soldier of the Zanskar Empire, he was all too familiar with what such words truly meant.
"Have Colonel Tasilo and Lieutenant Colonel Dulo decided to leave some men behind to cover their retreat?!"
The Almassa-class spaceship gradually slowed down, allowing the Duro fleet, composed of the Lichtia-class and Adoras-class ships behind it, to move forward and protect the Almassa-class spaceship behind it. At the same time, the remaining Callisto-class cruisers were also deployed to the left and right of the Almassa-class spaceship to defend it from attacks from both sides.
He Ming witnessed this scene.
"A desperate breakout?"
As He Ming's spirit was being roused, Amro, Hasavi, Christina, and Artesia, who were following closely behind and had been rushing out of the gravel belt with the Zanskar Empire fleet, all heard He Ming's voice.
"Gentlemen, the Zanskar Empire fleet must make a desperate breakout; beware of the enemy's suicidal attack!"
"what?!"
Amuro and Hathaway's expressions shifted, and they instinctively looked in the direction where the Banshee Gundam was.
Just now, there was no sound coming from the communication channel, was there?
"The telepathy of the new humans?"
"Understood, Colonel. Warrant Officer CC, beware of enemy suicide attacks."
Christina wasn't surprised at all; instead, she relayed He Ming's warning to CC, who hadn't sensed it. "Okay!"
CC, who had been diligent and conscientious throughout the journey and had carried out her mission with 100% dedication, did not show much curiosity and simply replied.
Meanwhile, Artesia did not hesitate and accelerated towards the nearest Callisto-class cruiser.
As the miniature missiles soared into the air, they were launched after emptying their ammunition, striking the two Zoroat aircraft attempting to intercept the SV52 and causing them to lose their balance, nearly colliding with each other.
Then, a barrage of micro-missiles rained down on the starboard side of the Calisto-class cruiser, triggering a series of explosions that destroyed the protective plates welded to the hull during emergency repairs, revealing the numerous holes left from the previous battle.
Artesia's gaze sharpened. After quickly gaining some distance, SV52 turned around and transformed into human form. At the same time, it deployed the GN particle cannon and aimed it at the wound for a fatal blow.
"Om!!"
The massive beam of particle light pierced the starboard side of the Callisto-class cruiser, making this space cruiser, which had attempted to serve as a shield for the Almassa-class space battleships, the first casualty of this breakout battle.
"boom!!!"
"Iron Guard silence!!"
The CIC report made Tasilo clench his teeth, and he even tasted a faint metallic sweetness.
He didn't care about anything else and asked directly.
"Has Lieutenant Kronokl not returned yet?"
If it weren't for the fact that Lieutenant Kronokl was the younger brother of Queen Maria of the Zanskar Empire, Tasilo probably wouldn't have specifically sent a MS squad to meet him; instead, he would have simply chosen to speed away.
Otherwise, how could they have lost a valuable Callisto-class cruiser at the very beginning of their breakout?
"Yes, sir! The lieutenant has just arrived at the hangar!"
"What are we waiting for? Notify Lieutenant Colonel Duro! Speed up the breakout!!"
At a command, all the MS units belonging to the other warships except for the Almassa-class space battleships were deployed to engage the opposing side's MS units in groups of one or more MS squads.
The Banshee Gundam, in particular, was very conspicuous and was targeted by at least ten Zoroat Gundams.
"Ten Zoroat?"
With a quick glance, He Ming spotted Artesia on the full-scale surveillance screen. Amuro and the others were also entangled by at least three Zorroyats.
Without a doubt, even the reserve team was used.
They appeared to be in a desperate stance, ready to break through to the death and survive.
"Adino, use laser signals to notify the Judgment to avoid their retreat route. There's no need to get entangled with them."
"learn! 』
At the same time, the three floating shields hovering beside the Banshee Gundam attacked again, crisscrossing each other like raging sharks in the sea, unleashing a barrage of bullets with beam Gatling guns and MEGA cannons, turning the leading Zorrots into fireballs.
In the blink of an eye, Zoroat, who was sent to contain Banshee Gundam, suffered more than half its losses.
"It's a great pity! If you believe that you can restrain the Banshee simply by using numbers, then this will be the last moment of your lives!"
Banshee Gundam suddenly raised its hand, raised its beam magnum, and fired a shot at a piece of debris that floated out from the rubble and landed right above and to the right of the Banshee Gundam.
