Chapter 74. Scouting Begins
At four o'clock in the morning, the deep night was opened by a ray of light in the sky. The joint operation of New Siesta and Rhine Life was launched immediately. A team of more than a thousand people entered the old city. The buzzing sound of drones in the sky was endless.
Electronic signals are transmitted rapidly.
The action team mainly responsible for reconnaissance followed the drone and swept away all monsters in sight. They held advanced long-range shooting weapons and advanced under the cover of the Peace Envoy, advancing faster than planned.
"With the fire support of this kind of war machine, it will have a great advantage when facing ground troops head-on. It can be regarded as a mobile artillery. What it is best at is attacking fortresses, but its field effect is much worse. Mobile
Speed is its fatal weakness. At this time, ground long-range units can make up for part of the lack of air defense capabilities. After all, most air attack methods now come from drones."
Zhou Jinru pointed his pointer at the enlarged photo of the peace messenger, and the screen on the other side was broadcasting the frontline footage in real time.
"The engine power that drives this big guy must be as powerful as possible, and fuel is also a key issue. If you want to deal with this type of war machine, please call for air support if conditions permit. Bombing is a very effective method. If air support cannot be provided,
, I personally recommend an immediate strategic shift."
Among the few people present, Yin Hui stared at its thick frontal armor and asked: "How many vehicles does it need to form a frontal combat capability?"
"Five or six vehicles can form a formation. In frontal combat, ground units need to cooperate to make up for their own bulky weaknesses."
Zhou Jinru added: "I'm not sure about the real defense power of this big iron box, unless the Colombians can send me a few for testing. Likewise, its firepower is also a mystery, but we will see it soon."
Amiya said: "It cannot be our imaginary enemy."
"But we need to know how to deal with it as an enemy, instead of going up to it and dying."
Zhou Jinru's words were very rude. He must do this and give timely reminders and suggestions, otherwise it would be dereliction of duty.
The other side of the screen showed that Rhode Island's support team was in place.
"Follow a little distance to avoid our friends complaining that Rhodes Island is just sitting on the sidelines."
Dupin, who had been silent for the whole time, pointed to the front line and broadcast: "Monster found!"
The drone floating in the air accurately captured the shaking bodies of the living dead. Half of their bodies had been crystallized, but they could still maintain their human form, but the body surfaces exposed to the air were covered with Originium.
These people should be the Xista people who died in the volcanic eruption. For some unknown reason, they stood up again.
"No, dead people will be quickly devoured by the Origin Stone and become new sources of infection. They rarely maintain their appearance when they died. How on earth do they..."
Before he finished speaking, a Peacemaker was seen taking the lead in firing. The black hole of the gun barrel emits a crimson light. With a loud noise that shook the earth, a crimson "cannonball" flew towards the monsters on the other side of the road.
, the air wave alone blew the people on the ground near it tossing around, and the entire war machine moved back a certain distance, and the recoil was astonishingly huge.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the "cannonball" that flew out of the muzzle and drew an arc. When it landed on the ground, it instantly vaporized the closest monster, literally disappearing into ashes. Then, the ground began to tremble violently.
, a large piece of the ground sank deeply, and the terrifying power of the explosion tore apart the surrounding monsters. Even the street buildings on one side were not spared, and parts of them collapsed one after another.
So scary!
To deal with the monsters in the old city with such power, I am afraid that the anti-aircraft guns are really overkill for killing mosquitoes.
Colombia's shock effect has been achieved. The weapons they produced can meet the needs of some people. The Peacemaker is large enough and has considerable firepower. The excellent visual impact can make people subconsciously ignore its weaknesses.
If he hadn't known in advance that this was just reconnaissance, Zhou Jinru would have suspected that they had launched a general attack.
The trailer towing the Originium energy gathering device has not entered the old city yet!
"It takes a long time to reset the attack."
Silver Gray pointed this out keenly.
After the Peacemaker fired its first shot, it neither turned the turret to allow other muzzles to enter the attack sequence, nor kept moving forward. Instead, it began to reverse slowly, allowing nearby ground units to cover its retreat.
Kelsey, who was standing next to Amiya, said calmly: "The stronger you are, the more fragile you are. This is the principle of all things."
The alarmed monsters rushed towards the combatants in the joint operation crazily. They were greeted by dense red missiles. Almost everyone had a thermal gun, forming a fairly tight firepower network. All the monsters that rushed over were killed.
halfway.
It only took ten minutes to clear the street, without any casualties. The only injured person sprained his foot.
"After today's battle, I believe many people will change their views on firearms. The mountains are high and the roads are far, and there is nothing Rutland can do against Colombia."
Yin Hui pinched his chin. He suddenly felt that it was a very wise move for allies to give priority to providing Source Stone grenades for combat operators. There was nothing more reassuring than enhanced firepower.
Dubin said: "At this speed, they can advance to the predetermined position within a day, and there will still be enough time to strengthen the defense line."
"Not necessarily. All the monsters that have been eliminated now are the peripheral monsters. The closer to the big hole, the scarier the monsters that appear. We haven't been able to get the picture of the core of the big hole for a while."
All parties have tried to use drones for remote observation before. The problem is that the signal seems to be interfered. Let alone taking pictures, even trying to get close will crash for no reason.
After losing four drones in a row, Rhode Island finally gave up on in-depth observation. Jiji was depressed for a whole day because he was defeated in the professional field...
…
The frontline operations went very smoothly, so smoothly that Roberts felt that he could finish the mission before he even took out more secret weapons. The caution of Rheinland Life's top brass was a bit unnecessary.
He stood next to the peace messenger, with unprecedented confidence. The only flaw in the entire front was the chaotic logistics.
After fierce fighting, each formation consumed about one-third of the ammunition. Although the remaining reserves were sufficient, the delay in the arrival of the transport convoy made this victory not so perfect.
He was considering whether to stay where he was and wait for supplies to arrive.
The hatch above the Peace Messenger opened, and a Volper man wearing an khaki camouflage uniform leaned out his upper body. His voice was as hard as steel when he spoke.
Chapter completed!
