Armor-piercing bullets don't believe in carbon-based monsters

Chapter 286 Chapter 1

Chapter 286 First
On the other side, on the battlefield of the first line of defense, the forward-deployed 30A tanks were already in trouble.

"withstand!"

Huang slammed on the tank's accelerator, while the gunner beside him gripped the control lever, trying to rotate the turret. However, the monster's tentacles, tightly wrapped around the tank, jammed the turret at just the right angle, rendering it immobile.

The tank's tracks were spinning wildly, but the tilted posture caused this heavy steel monster to lose traction, and no matter how Huang Meng operated it, he could not get out of trouble.

"If this keeps up, we're going to be crushed to death!"

Huang Meng shouted, then immediately gave the order:
"Fire one shot! Use the impact to push us back to the ground!"

"understand!"

Upon hearing this, the gunner immediately pressed the fire button, and after a loud bang, the tank abruptly returned to its starting position.

"boom!"

The tracks crashed down heavily, and the nearly 70-ton weight crushed the tentacles that couldn't retract in time.

Immediately afterwards, the rapidly spinning tracks threw flesh and dirt to both sides, and the tank, having regained traction, surged forward like a raging beast.

"grass!"

Huang Meng couldn't help but curse.

"Damn it, we can't keep driving like this!"

“These monsters can’t bother us, but if we get stuck, it will be difficult to escape.”

"Turn around 200 meters ahead, adjust the turret, aim and fire!"

"understand!"

The gunner shouted in response, and at that moment, the automatic loader had already pushed a new shell into the breech.

With the assistance of the intelligent fire control system, the gunner quickly locked onto the monster that resembled an octopus, but with hard bones growing on each tentacle.

Immediately afterwards, as the monster followed the tank, it tried to rush up again and pin the tank down.

There was another loud noise.

"boom!"

The 125mm main gun unleashed tremendous power; with a single shot, all the loose soil on both sides of the tank was kicked up.

The smoke and dust exploded like wings in a stunning manner.

Illuminated by distant lights, the vehicle appeared like a mechanical angel descending to earth.

"Hit!"

The gunner shouted a report, and not far away, the monster's body had been completely pierced by the shell.

The massive explosion tore it to pieces; before it could even let out a wail, the monster collapsed to the ground.

A huge bloody hole appeared in its chest, and its unsupported bones and muscles collapsed to the ground as if they had dissolved.

"Keep maneuvering! There are two more!"

Huang Meng finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Just now, when his tank got stuck due to an operational error, he almost thought he was going to die.

Once locked down, the other monster lurking in the distance will inevitably spit venom at the tank. And once the venom enters the tank, not to mention whether that unknown liquid will corrode the tank's equipment, at least the two of them, the gunner and the gunner, will have no chance of escaping.

Fortunately, I reacted relatively quickly.

That shell fired in the air saved his life and brought the advantage back to him.

At this moment, his eyes were fixed on the monster lurking in the distance.

The other party was not huge, roughly estimated to be less than 10 meters tall.

However, despite its enormous size, its agility is truly astonishing.

Even with its heavy poison sac on its abdomen, it can maintain a speed of nearly 30 kilometers per hour, constantly moving sideways in an attempt to use cover to avoid tank fire.

It's very smart.

In a daze, Huang Meng felt that he was not attacking a monster, but an enemy that was much larger than himself.

Combat is no longer a simple matter of aiming, shooting, and retreating; it has become a true "game of strategy."

Exhaling a slight breath of stale air, Huang Meng turned the control stick to flank and encircle the enemy. At that moment, the monster carrying the poison sac had already raised its head after breaking through and spat out thick mucus.

It felt like a heavy rain was falling on me.

Without hesitation, Huang Meng stepped on the gas, narrowly avoiding the falling slime.

Meanwhile, the gunners finally found their firing angle and prepared to begin shelling.

"Commander! Create distance!"

"understand!"

Huang Meng maintained his angle away from the monster, and the tank sped away at 60 kilometers per hour.

Followed by.

"boom!"

With a muffled thud, the monster's body exploded into pieces.

A terrifying rain of blood fell, and Huang Meng dodged to a spot he had already chosen.

A large amount of venom was blocked by the downhill slope, with only a small amount splashing onto the tank.

Thankfully, we dodged it.

Huang Meng stepped on the gas again, and this time, only one monster remained in front of him.

The cannon was already aimed at the direction of the monster, and the coaxial machine gun began firing first.

12.7mm bullets were fired in succession, pinning the monster that was trying to escape to the ground.

"fire!"

Huang Meng gave the order again. When the shells were fired, he did not stop at all, but immediately turned around and headed northwest.

The fate of this monster is obvious; at a distance of less than 300 meters, even a gunner with no sense of proportion couldn't possibly miss.

It was already dead, but on the northwestern defense line, the main force of those monsters was still entangled with their comrades.

The situation shown on the battle map is quite dire; the nearest monster has advanced to within 200 meters of the fortress.

Once they breach the fortress defenses, the buffer zone behind them will be difficult to protect.

Fortunately, from his current location all the way to the fortress in the direction the monsters were attacking, the land was flat!
"Fire while moving!"

"Continuous artillery fire!"

"understand!"

With its superior fire control system, the tank's gun barrel remains stable even on extremely bumpy ground.

The gunners fired rhythmically at the distant monsters, the flank fire compensating for the lack of direct artillery fire on the front lines, like a steel nail pinning the monsters that tried to get any closer to the ground.

The monsters' offensive was once again halted, and at this point, the original 40 monsters had dwindled to a mere dozen or so.

They could take no further steps.

The supply line has been re-established, and a temporary supply point has been set up in the very center of the buffer zone.

A large number of Holy Blood Warriors guarded the supply point, while unmanned combat groups cleared all obstacles along the way.

The modified trucks, carrying a reserve force that had already been battle-tested, continuously transported ammunition supplies forward. Wherever they went, no small monster could get within 30 meters.

This battle
They're really rich!
Huang Meng recalled the time when he was still in Huangshi City.

At that time, all I had was an old flintlock pistol.

But now, he's actually driving a tank.
It's only been a few months?

For me, this was something I had never even dreamed of.

I must never allow anything to ruin my future.

Especially these monsters!

At that moment, Chen Jian's command came through his earpiece.

"Attention all combat units!"

"The battle is drawing to a close!"

"Open fire at full speed and clear the battlefield quickly!"

"understand!"

Huang Meng gripped the control lever and headed straight for the front line.

He knew that even if he won this battle, it wouldn't be the end.

However, he firmly believed in himself and would continue fighting.
Meanwhile, two thousand meters above the ground.

The two Mosquito fighters flew side by side, maintaining a distance of several hundred meters, crossing the front line of the beast horde and heading towards the enemy's rear.

Lei Jie calmly watched the images scrolling on the smart eyepiece in front of him, then spoke to Jiang Yu beside him:
"We are about to leave the cellular network coverage area, and our destination is Xuancheng, which is 60 kilometers away."

"A large number of monsters are gathered there. According to information transmitted by reconnaissance balloons, several of these monsters are enormous, and there are signs of environmental changes, suggesting they may be level two monsters." "We need to drop two nuclear bombs over Xuancheng to ensure lethal coverage of Xuancheng and the surrounding area."

"Now I will brief you on the bombing plan."

"Ascend to an altitude of 6000 meters and drop bombs based on map guidance and visual observation of terrain features."

"After dropping the bomb, immediately turn around and continue to ascend to return to base and escape the blast radius."

"The delayed detonation device I set will take effect 240 seconds after the bomb is dropped, but the electromagnetic radiation impact range can reach hundreds of kilometers."

"This bomber has a large number of electronic systems, and we have already implemented isolation and protection measures in the core areas to block and weaken electromagnetic pulses."

"Even so, I cannot fully guarantee that the aircraft will be able to successfully evade the effects of the electromagnetic pulse."

"Therefore, you must be prepared for the complete failure of the aircraft's electronic systems."

"We must climb as high as possible to ensure that we can glide back to base and land if we lose power."

"The situation has been explained, is it clear?"

"clear!"

Jiang Yu's voice came through the earphones, and Lei Jie nodded subconsciously without saying anything.

In fact, it's really a bit much to ask a novice who has only been flying for a few days to carry out such a difficult bombing mission.

If it were in his own world, Jiang Yu probably wouldn't even have downloaded a simulator yet.

But in this apocalyptic world, she had no choice.

No one had a choice.

As the two bombers approached their target, the cellular network was interrupted, and the distant artillery fire from the base had long since disappeared.

Like two lonely ghosts, the bombers flew silently toward their final destination.

"12 kilometers to the target."

"I have visually identified the target area."

"Prepare to begin dive bombing."

"Follow my movements closely."

Lei Jie gave the order, and Jiang Yu responded immediately.

"understand!"

The two bombers circled and increased their angle of attack, pointing towards Xuancheng on the ground like downward-facing augers.

Lei Jie stared intently at the altimeter, and when the altitude dropped to 4000 meters, he decisively pressed the bomb release button.

"bomb!"

"Click."

With a soft bang, two nuclear missiles were launched.

At the same time, Reggie pulled up the control stick and started the bomber climbing again.

All the actions took place in silence and calm; they dropped incredibly dangerous weapons without any warning.

This even made the river fish somewhat uncomfortable.

The bombs she had dropped before had all given her tangible feedback.

And now?

Two nuclear bombs were dropped, but they disappeared without a trace, and no one even knew where they had gone.

Of course, she wouldn't be foolish enough to lower her altitude to get closer to watch the fireworks.

She simply followed Reggie's instructions and climbed until she reached a maximum altitude of nearly 8000 meters before leveling off.

At this point, two minutes had passed.

The bombers had already flown nearly 10 kilometers. After leveling off, they could fly another 15 kilometers in two minutes.

This distance was enough for them to escape danger.

Jiang Yu breathed a slight sigh of relief. While holding the control stick, she turned around to look back and silently counted down in her mind.

60 seconds.

It is now nearly 20 kilometers from the landing point.

30 seconds.

Guided by Lei Jie, the bomber climbed another 200 meters, and 8200 meters was already the limit of its limits.

She was already wearing a breathing mask, but the low temperature still made her shiver.

10 seconds.

Jiang Yu was still wondering whether he would be able to witness the explosion of those two nuclear bombs.

But soon, she heard Reggie's command.

"Close your eyes!"

"understand!"

Jiang Yu immediately closed his eyes.

next second.

A bright light flashed, and her vision turned completely red.

As the light faded, when I opened my eyes again, two enormous mushroom clouds were already rising behind me.

Nuke!

At that moment, she finally truly understood what the so-called "sunrise" meant.

The power of these two megaton-class nuclear explosions far surpassed that of the "tactical nuclear bomb" that she had previously seen explode in Liangxi City.

If that nuclear bomb was just a larger bomb, what she was seeing now was a truly terrifying weapon capable of destroying everything!
Jiang Yu was stunned. For a moment, she even forgot that she was still in danger.

But the next second, she felt the joystick in her hand become incredibly heavy.

The power is out!
Jiang Yu's muscles tensed instantly, and she gripped the control stick tightly. Just then, she heard Lei Jie's voice in her ear.

"Communication test, communication test!"

"Jiang Yu, can you hear me?"

"can hear!"

Jiang Yu quickly replied:
"Power has been interrupted, I am restarting the engine."

"Understood. Restart the engine according to the established procedure."

"Engine failed to start!"

"try again!"

"Understood, I'm trying!"

Jiang Yu pressed the start button repeatedly, and just when she thought she was really going to have to glide back to base after several unsuccessful attempts, the engine suddenly started.

"Buzzing—"

The propeller started spinning again, and the river fish let out a long breath.

In those few seconds, her heart was beating even faster than when she was facing the monster's low-altitude bombardment.

"Engine restart successful, working well!"

She immediately reported the situation to Reggie, and Reggie on the other plane also breathed a sigh of relief after receiving her report.

The most dangerous part is over.

Next, all that's needed is to fly back to base, and the mission will be considered a complete success.

Lei Jie gently rocked the wing, congratulating the river fish beside him.

Then, he spoke:
"The fighting at the base is basically over."

"We have won this battle."

"You also deserve a lot of credit."

"Congratulations, you are the first female pilot in the world to drop a nuclear bomb with her own hands."
