[i]With the tides changing in their favor just for a little bit, it seems the counterattack was going to have some effect on the army's morale, making everyone more confident in doing their job. It still was too early to celebrate victory, because reinforcements for the Chinese Army started to present themselves to drive them back into a wall and seize victory.[/i]

[i]Regil kept doing his job, securing that the missiles were being destroyed and not hitting them. But he was just one person, some stray shots were landing. While he was destroying some of them, one missile came in his direction.[/i]

[color=8493ca]"Oh no...!!"[/color] [i]He gasped.[/i]

Covering his eyes, the Queen covered her master and took the hit directly. However, Regil was still blown away from the impact and tossed back away. The sand did cover his landing, making it less hurting, but it was still a direct attack that he wasn't able to avoid.

[color=8493ca]"Urgh... she has only two hits left... I have to be more careful...!"[/color] [i]He spoke, getting back up.[/i]

[i]Suddenly, one of the Chinese Army aerial units exploded. It was hit by an incoming rocket, while it was so focused on attacking the ground. Then, more of said missiles started to invade the airspace of the battle, all of them aiming for the enemies. Some of them missed, others managed to strike through.[/i]

[color=8493ca]"Their aerial units are being destroyed. But our soldiers are too busy fighting on the ground. Does that mean...?"[/color] [i]Regil spoke, looking back.[/i]

[i]Indeed, a rogue helicopter was coming to their aid. And the missiles being shot at the enemy were coming from it. He couldn't see who was in the helicopter, but if it was aiming for the enemy, it most assuredly was not against them. He returned his focus to the battlefield, taking advantage of the reinforcements.[/i]

[color=8493ca]"Alright, change of strategy. We're going to attack the aerial units directly now! Queen, take the offensive alongside the reinforcements!"[/color] [i]Regil ordered.[/i]

[i]Following his command, the Queen started to aim directly at the aerial units, trying to hit them from underneath, in order to divide some of the reinforcement's newly acquired focus back to him. After all, the Queen still had two hits left to spare.[/i]

[i]As for the reinforcement, Regina's unit kept firing without too much pause. Their idea was to take the offensive and destroy as many aerial units as possible from the enemy, making attrition between both forces in the skies. Of course, her idea called the attention of the Chinese Army, and they retaliated with missiles of their own. The dangerous approach was making it quite risky since it was a single helicopter against many, and the times they were barely grazing missiles were stacking up.[/i]

"S-Specialist Meitner, we need to form another plan! We might get hit at this rate!" [i]One of the soldiers commented.[/i]

[color=bc8dbf]"Man up, keep your mouth shut, and just shoot at the enemy! I don't remember giving you permission to question my command!"[/color] [i]Regina bitterly responded.[/i]

"B-But we might get overwhelmed at this rate! We're just a single flying target that fights back, but that doesn't mean we might be able to-" [i]Another soldier tried to give his input.[/i]

[color=bc8dbf]"Then just jump down and go back home!! I don't need a baby who doesn't risk himself in war, I need men who can actually pull their own damn weight!!"[/color] [i]Regina shouted.[/i]

"Incoming missile at our right!!" [i]The pilot shouted.[/i]

[i]With a very extreme maneuver, the pilot managed to make sure they wouldn't be hit, but the soldiers inside started to lose balance and had to stop shooting. Regina held herself tightly, while the helicopter got back on track. Seeing as everyone was losing their focus momentarily, Regina exchanged her rifle for an RPG and took the lead.[/i]

[color=bc8dbf]"[i]Zàijiàn[/i], motherfuckers!! Go to hell and say hi to Uncle Satan for me!!"[/color] [i]Regina shouted.[/i]

[i]She shot a rocket towards another enemy and hit it directly. The soldiers inside the aerial unit jumped out and started to fall down, opening their parachutes for a safe landing. However, the snipers started to do their job and shot the airborne soldiers, hitting them in random parts of the body.[/i]

[color=bc8dbf]"The heads!! Out with their HEADS!!"[/color] [i]Regina shouted at the snipers while shooting another rocket.[/i]
