Alien Arms Empire

Chapter 1854 1855 Jade City Street Fight

"Boom!" The deafening explosion echoed in Jade City, and thick smoke rose into the sky from the direction of Arsenal No. 5, straight into the sky. The fire lit half of the sky red, as if the end was coming.

Because there were so many explosive bombs, nearby houses collapsed. The glass of buildings within a distance of several hundred meters was shattered, and the glass of buildings one kilometer away was rattling.

"Damn, you're so cruel. They're going to bury us all here!" The shock wave of the explosion caused the ruins where a Tang Army combat team was hiding to collapse. A Tang Army soldier holding an assault rifle spat out a mouthful of mud. spit, and got up from the ground cursing.

When they went south, they upgraded to better assault rifles, and also prepared new gadgets such as red dot sights for street fighting. It is more troublesome to install sights on the old AK series rifles, so they have been replaced with new rifles with Picatinny rails.

This rifle is called the Type 191 battle rifle within the Tang Empire. I heard that this rifle has begun to be installed in large-scale troops to replace various types of test rifles and the old AK series assault rifles.

The frontline troops of the Tang Empire were actually equipped with a large number of rifles of various types, including bullpup structures and subsequent improvements of the AK series.

After careful comparison and screening, the 5.45-caliber AK-74 rifle and the 5.56-caliber M-4 series rifles were eliminated. In the end, Tang Jun chose the slightly larger caliber 5.8 mm as the standard caliber for its next-generation rifle.

The AK series of rifles originally equipped with a large number of troops were abandoned because the receiver was unstable and could not be installed with rails, making it inconvenient to install sights. The Type 191 rifle with a newly designed gun body structure has been welcomed by most soldiers.

The combat effectiveness of Tang Army soldiers equipped with this rifle has indeed been greatly improved. The new rifle can not only be equipped with various accessories, but its accuracy is also much higher than that of the AK series.

"Stop talking nonsense and get ready for battle! Did you hear those gunshots? The enemy is beginning to recover from the chaos!" The commander of the squad kicked his men in the **** and urged the squad to move forward.

Their mission this time was to open up the connection between the Tang army and the rioting civilians in Jade City, so as to buy time for the large forces to move into the city. In order to cooperate with the actions of these Tang Army detachments, the Tang Army agents in the city had just blown up the No. 5 arsenal of Lanes' troops, causing chaos in the city.

The streets in the civilian area of ​​Jade City are narrow and winding, lined with densely packed residential buildings, and renovated illegal buildings are everywhere. You can even see dead rats that have not been taken care of on the streets.

This environment provided a natural cover for the Tang army's street fighting. They could freely shuttle through the narrow streets and defeat larger numbers of enemies with more advanced tactics.

This combat team is like a group of ghosts, shuttling between the broken walls and rubble, launching attacks on the enemy invisibly, then retreating after the battle, without fighting the enemy.

Each of them has its own strengths and division of labor. Some people in this team are proficient in blasting and can use pre-set explosives to blow up buildings to block enemy attacks; others can use precision marksman rifles to snipe enemies and help the team get rid of unnecessary troubles with their marksmanship; others carry With communication equipment, they can contact artillery support, and use positioning equipment to accurately instruct targets... In short, they are not ordinary people.

This Tang Army team walked along the road until they were close to the sound of gunfire. They covered each other and quickly occupied a three-story building. They used the rooms and windows in the building as shelters and briefly observed the surrounding situation.

The streets in the distance were filled with corpses, where the soldiers of the Lions Empire had just launched a tragic massacre against the rioting civilians of Jade City.

After all, civilians were no match for regular troops. These civilians who broke through the checkpoints and barricades were blocked by a company of Dornish soldiers. A fierce battle broke out between the two sides, but it was impossible for the untrained workers and people of Yucheng to defeat the well-prepared regular army.

Although seven or eight of Dorne's soldiers were killed by Tang Army snipers, the remaining soldiers still used submachine guns and grenades to defeat the civilian armed forces. It was impossible for Tang Army's agents to prevent the civilians from routing, so the battle here ended hastily. .

The ground is covered with the corpses of civilians, and Dornish soldiers are carefully cleaning the battlefield at this time: they are afraid that the insidious sniper who shot many of them will return, so these Dornish soldiers are wasting here. for a lot of time.

Now, a small team from the Tang Empire has taken over this defense area. They will build a new defense line here and wait for the arrival of follow-up reinforcements.

The commander of the Tang Army who led the team gave the sniper a look, and the sniper who understood the situation immediately took his observers to find the best sniper position. The commando gave a thumbs up and went to the first floor with his rifle mounted with a grenade launcher. Everyone found their position, and they debugged their communication equipment to ensure that they could contact their teammates in time during the battle.

"Iron tower! Iron tower! I am Hurricane No. 1! I am Hurricane No. 1!" The signal soldier began to debug his equipment in a safe position. His movements were very skillful. After hearing the answer from the earphone, he immediately reported his coordinates: "Enemy position... 44, 98! Request precise artillery strike!"

Everyone in the Tang Army squad quietly entered the defensive position of their choice. They were scattered in every corner of the building, their guns pointed in the direction of the street in unison.

Through the gap in the window, they could clearly see the Dornish soldiers less than a hundred meters away. These soldiers had just experienced a massacre of civilians. At this time, they were carefully searching the battlefield with a hint of fatigue and nervousness. They didn't dare to move forward in a big way, for fear of disturbing the ghosts hiding in the dark.

The sniper was lying on the roof of the building, his cold barrel aimed at the head of a Dornish officer. He held his breath, waiting for the best opportunity to shoot. The assaulter lurked behind the window on the first floor, his finger gently resting on the trigger of the grenade launcher hanging under the rifle, ready to hit the enemy head-on at any time.

At this moment, time seemed to have stopped, with only the sound of gentle breathing and heartbeat echoing in the silent room. The soldiers of the Tang Army waited patiently, waiting for the sound of the cannon to break the eerie tranquility, and waiting for a storm-like attack to completely engulf the enemy.

The artillery behind them did not let them wait long. Soon, a sharp whistling sound came from far and near, followed by a deafening explosion. The 155 mm caliber howitzer shells pierced the air and landed accurately on the street, instantly tearing into pieces those Dornish soldiers who had no time to escape.

"Boom!" A huge fireball rose into the sky, and the shock wave was mixed with shrapnel and gravel, ravaging everything around it. Before the frightened Dornish soldiers could react, they were swallowed up by the sudden artillery fire. The flying fragments and rolling fire drowned out their screams, leaving only broken limbs and arms and smoke on the ground.

"Boom!" The second cannonball fell almost at the same time. Before the Dornish soldiers could react, their bodies were torn apart by the incoming shrapnel.

"Bang!" A crisp gunshot was inconspicuous amidst the deafening sound of artillery, but it took away the life of a Dornish officer standing at the end of the street with his head peeping out. He fell straight down. The Dornish soldiers around him thought he had been hit by shrapnel, and they were so frightened that they all immediately lay down and looked for cover.

The Dornish soldiers who had just suppressed the civilians in Jade City were stunned by the sudden artillery fire. They didn't know what happened, and they scattered like birds and beasts.

They were defeated, and covered with dust and fear, they all shrank back to the end of the street. The artillery fire stopped temporarily, and the air was filled with a thick smell of gunpowder smoke, making it difficult to breathe. These Dornish soldiers who were dumbfounded by the shells still didn't understand what was going on. They all looked at each other with confusion and fear in their eyes.

"What's going on? What happened?" A soldier asked with a trembling voice, but all he got were the same blank looks from his companions.

"Is it the bombardment of the Tang Army? How could we be bombarded?" Another soldier said in shock, holding his head.

They were not sure whether they were just unlucky enough to be covered by the Tang army's artillery fire, or whether they were actually under enemy attack. The leading Dornish officer didn't even know what kind of order to issue to deal with the current situation.

When these Dornish soldiers once again had the courage to try to cross the streets to expand their defensive positions, they finally found that a Tang army appeared in front of them!

That annoying sniper is back. Not only this sniper, but also an elusive **** who shoots grenades everywhere. There are also several opponents with firepower comparable to machine guns, raining down bullets on them from different windows. .

This time they finally confirmed that they were indeed attacked by the Tang Army, or that they were blocked by the Tang Army. The Tang Army had already established a line of defense in Jade City!

More than an hour later, the news was delivered to Paul in the underground bunker of Yucheng headquarters. After he drew the area occupied by the Tang Army on the map, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

The Tang army has occupied almost one-fifth of the city, and the entire Jade City defense line has been pierced by this protrusion...

"Gather nearby troops immediately! Counterattack! You must counterattack!" Paul clenched his fists, slapped the table and ordered loudly: "At any cost! The Tang army must be driven out of the city!"
