[Targets confirmed: the president, the prime minister, important officials, the police chief, the wealthy businessman who embezzled assets... these all need to be eliminated.] Negev and the orange cat highlighted these units so they wouldn't miss them in the rush of fighting later.
Two medical humanoids were carrying a large amount of supplies and sitting behind the Griffin humanoid. They were responsible for providing first aid to the soldiers who were not dead and had clean records.
"We've prepared three meeting points. We'll just leave by car when the time comes. The commander will be responsible for collecting us. This is our first operation, so don't let them get us back to base. Okay, the operation begins! Everyone, get ready!" Negev pushed open the door and swaggered out, machine gun in hand. The surrounding surveillance cameras were blacked out the moment he pushed the door open.
[Should we turn on the loudspeaker?] TAR21 pointed at the loudspeaker on his puppet.
I personally don't really like this...playing the part of a cult is weird. But since it's the commander's order, I'll just follow the situation. The Negev squad left the house and quickly rushed to the intersection where the Congolese army had established martial law.
If it were just three lines of defense, there wouldn't be any problem. They knew exactly how many armored vehicles the Congolese troops had. Negev readied the drone overhead for fire.
In front of them, a dozen Congolese soldiers wearing exoskeletons were guarding the intersection, with two armored vehicles parked nearby.
"Stop! Martial law ahead!" The Congolese troops guarding the intersection saw the figures rushing towards them and immediately shouted in French and English.
As soon as they finished speaking, they heard a muffled sound coming from the hotel behind them. The defenders subconsciously turned around to look.
UZI and TAR21 directly took out the grenade launchers and fired several smart grenades at the defenders in front.
The grenade sprayed flames in the air and flew towards the Congolese troops who turned their heads with a look of horror.
For these poorly trained Congolese troops, these flying grenades are equivalent to the coming of death!
The Congolese defenders immediately rushed into the surrounding bunkers, but the smart grenades penetrated directly behind them, killing the soldiers hiding inside. Some soldiers hid behind armored vehicles, and the grenades, with crudely calculated trajectories, hit the armored vehicles, denting the armor plates.
But then a tactical grenade flew under the vehicle, and an invisible scan flashed by. The Negev's visual module immediately locked onto the enemy's position.
Human soldiers would need to rely on special sights to find the marked enemies, but for Negev, her eyes could directly see those enemies with glowing red light.
70 Congo Campaign (Part )
Negev's machine gun opened fire, powerful high-explosive armor-piercing rounds piercing the armored vehicle, killing the soldiers hiding behind it. TAR21 activated the puppet's speaker and began broadcasting taunts.
"Divine punishment! Coming! Sinners! Executed! The Griffin Divine Punishment Sect! Following God's will! Eliminate those who have committed the heinous crimes! We represent God's wrath! We are God's scourge!"
"Sinners! Kneel down and repent! Accept judgment!"
"We are invulnerable! We have God's protection! We are invincible! We are God's messengers!"
"We are the messengers of divine punishment! We are the Griffin Divine Punishment Sect! Accept judgment! Accept judgment!"
An impassioned male voice boomed from the loudspeaker, shouting in both French and English. In the distance, Thomson's squad, tasked with attacking the other side of the defense line, also began playing a pre-prepared recording.
However, because these dubbings were done by Sun Yang as a courtesy and with some technical adjustments, the pronunciation is not very standard and feels a bit weird.
When recording, Sun Yang asked Strade and other humanoids in the base who would like to do the dubbing, but no one seemed very interested.
Only K5's glorious Impassioned has a female version. It will be great to be able to choose different versions to play in the tactical figures in the future battles.
Although Negev didn't really want to play this recording, it was like a group mockery. If the enemy had heavy firepower, they would definitely fire several bases of ammunition at this side.
However, this was an urban area after all, and there might be friendly forces around, so the Congolese artillery couldn't figure out where to fire so quickly.
Moreover, gunfire could be heard everywhere in the city. Each member of the Palette Squad led four puppets and harassed the defenders stationed in other directions throughout the city.
Each humanoid and its puppet on the palette is equipped with a modified IMR submachine gun and MDL grenade launcher. Their fierce firepower makes it difficult for the defenders to leave.
This left the stationed artillery units even more uncertain about where to fire their shells. Even if a captain reported the enemy's position and coordinates, within seconds, all that remained was the wailing of the soldiers. Without the detailed coordinates and instructions from the infantry captain, the artillery dared not fire without warning.
[How shameful! Seriously, why can't the commander hold back his laughter?] TAR21 fired repeatedly at the soldiers rushing out from nearby, each of them struck in the head and killed.
The howitzer drone in the sky also fired grenades at the difficult-to-breakthrough buildings in the distance, blowing out more than a dozen human fragments. The remaining soldiers ran out in panic, and were immediately wiped out by the firepower of the Neg woman form and 20 puppet guns.
The second line of defense was shattered in an instant. The medical figures following the tactical figures also arrived quickly. The team had little chance of leaving anyone alive; there was nothing they could do about it.
[It's hard to say, but it seems to be working.] Negev observed the surroundings through the drone. Many soldiers, after seeing their own troops being easily wiped out, were too frightened to go out and fight.
Even if some supervisors wanted to execute deserters, they would be shot to pieces by the terrified and angry soldiers. Some even knelt down and prayed not to kill them.
The defenders in other directions barely escaped the sluggish influence of the Palette Team. These defenders were asked by the captain and superiors to go to support, but their movements were obviously slow and they seemed quite reluctant to fight other enemy forces.
On the other side, Thomson's team was doing the same thing, their advancement speed was extremely fast. It only took a few minutes to break through to the last street.
The wealthy people planned to leave when the gunshots rang out. However, the Carcano sisters, who were hiding in the city, used their puppets to kill several people who tried to leave the hotel and then blew up the car that drove away.
These wealthy businessmen and powerful people could only crowd into the hotel and accuse and shout at each other.
Originally, the winery had an escape route in the lobby, but Sun Yang had already figured out the geological environment nearby.
The hotel is built so solidly that it would be safe even if there was an earthquake or explosives. The interior of the passage is also very solid, using real materials.
However, the exit wasn't very strong. While the people upstairs were partying, the escape route's exit was blown down by the Palette Team. The house, which served as a hidden exit, and the river exit were reduced to rubble by the explosives. Clearing the exit wouldn't be possible for hours.
This is why muffled noises were heard from the direction of the winery when the battle just started.
Although Sun Yang considered letting the Palette Team fight their way out through the tunnel, there must be an inordinate number of armed forces in the venue, and if the team went out through the tunnel, they would most likely be annihilated by fire from all directions.
Taking this into consideration, Sun Yang still let them carry out the task of causing destruction in the city and delaying the enemy troops.
They kept calling their own private armed forces to ask them to pick him up, and the Minister of Defense was also calling nearby military units, asking them to gather their troops and form a human wall to stop the raiders.
But it would take time to regroup the defeated soldiers. Negev stopped briefly outside the enemy's third line of defense and ordered TAR21 and UZI to fire all the grenades in the grenade launcher.
More than a dozen smart grenades flew through the air, then flew towards the Congolese defenders. The defenders immediately took shelter in nearby, more sturdy houses and armored vehicles. The smart grenades hit the armored vehicles and concrete walls, failing to cause much damage, only briefly suppressing the morale of the soldiers on the last line of defense.
[Fire flashbangs! Grenade drones fire grenades! Machine gun drones and sniper drones fire suppressive bursts. We'll have the puppets continue firing smart grenades to suppress the enemy, and then we'll charge forward!] Negev gave his final order.
The puppets unleashed a lethal barrage of tactical grenades at the last line of defense. Fired through the MDL, the grenades flew directly into the enemy lines. The scattering of flash grenades illuminated the lines brighter than daylight, and the intense roars inflicted unbearable pain on the defenders tucked away in their bunkers.
The grenade drone also fired another grenade into the building at the right moment. This drone, equipped with a howitzer, provided powerful firepower, collapsing the building with a single shot. Machine gun drones and sniper drones flew everywhere, forcing the defenders to retreat without even peeking out.
The puppets quickly reloaded their smart grenades. Each humanoid puppet fired twice, each batch of eight smart grenades continuously suppressing the Congolese troops. The humanoids took the opportunity to sprint towards the defense line.
Among them, some defenders were strong-willed enough to throw their own smart grenades outside, but they were all blown up in mid-air by the humanoids.
Some defenders who had recovered from the flash bomb and grenade attacks were still trying to fight back with their weapons, and some even pulled out RPGs to fight back, but all of them were shot in the head by the flying machine gun drones and the rushing humanoid troops.
Occasionally, a bullet would be fired by chance, but the humanoid's precise shooting would deflect the bullet's trajectory and send it flying into the building next door, blowing up part of the wall.
71 Congo Campaign (Part )
The last line of defense proved useless. It was instantly overwhelmed by the Griffin Divine Punishment Cult's far superior firepower. Negev rushed into the bunker and killed any troops who dared to fight back.
The remaining enemy troops were frightened by the shouting from the loudspeakers and the fierce firepower. They lost the will to fight.
The Negev team did not stop at all and handed the task of delaying the enemy's support to the Palette team. She believed in Makarov's command ability and combat efficiency.
While the Congolese troops and private armed forces were still blocked by the chaotic Palette team and could not advance, the Thomson team and the Negev team rushed towards the luxury hotel from two directions respectively.
[Negev! Someone from the wealthy area has asked Atlas for help!] Sun Yang's voice rang out from Negev's ears.
[I heard it! We work very quickly!] The Negev passed the bunker and ahead was the luxurious Kinshasa Winery.
The winery covers a vast area and has a wide variety of entertainment facilities. The sculptures at the entrance are exquisite, and there is a considerable security force stationed inside. There are even several ASTs available.
The winery has been built like an iron barrel. Various luxury cars and armored vehicles have formed a series of defense lines. The security forces left behind, the bodyguards brought by the wealthy, and the remaining Congolese defenders are guarding in all directions in a mess, barely maintaining morale and defense lines.
Although a defense line was organized below the winery, gunfire continued from the commanding heights of the houses above the winery. The Carcano sisters' firepower never stopped, and the security forces lacked effective detection methods and the ability to engage in long-range fire.
The hundreds of reconnaissance drones launched from Congo were quickly taught a lesson by Griffin's battlefield-tested drones, which were full of martial virtue.
Various precision-firing machine gun drones and sniper drones shot down Congolese reconnaissance drones.
The command center at the Congo Winery soon realized that their drones could only passively withstand attacks, so they sent the remaining fifty or so drones around the winery, ensuring a field of view of about two kilometers.
The automatic machine guns built inside the winery have already started operating. These machine guns have a range of about four kilometers, although in reality, they are not very accurate in hitting small targets beyond two kilometers.
These cannons could automatically target nearby non-friendly units. Several Griffin drones flew too close and were shattered by the winery's automated turrets, falling to the ground in a heap of metal debris.
It was precisely because of these turrets that the Congolese wealthy and high-ranking officials were able to calm down and not fight to break out. They firmly believed that the enemy had only relied on surprise attacks to achieve the current situation. As long as they held the winery and mobilized nearby troops, these few enemies would be quickly eliminated.
There were some weird speakers playing some nonsense outside, but if it was just sound, it wouldn't mean anything. No matter how much noise there was, it wouldn't do anything except make your ears uncomfortable.
After crossing the third line of defense, Team Thomson and Team Negev divided their tasks. The T-dolls couldn't withstand the firepower of the automatic cannon, but they were well aware of its operating principles. Simple target identification: shoot down any non-friendly enemy.
[How many machine gun emplacements are there? Do we know?] Negev and his teammates crouched together, the medical figure behind them staring blankly. They operated various drones circling the distance. The Carcano sisters in the distance also provided their observed machine gun emplacement locations.
[There are ten machine gun positions in total.] Thomson on the other side calculated the exact location and number.
I've got an idea. Use a drone to camouflage the enemy's identification signal. Attach the explosives from the puppet to the drone, and the drone will crash into the machine gun, destroying the entire fortification along with it. Seriously, Commander, when will we finally make the Stinger missile...?
Negev recalled the drone, which had emptied its ammunition. The humanoids busied themselves disarming the drone and attaching explosives to the puppets.
The electronically skilled humanoids within the Negev team read the cannon's signal recognition characteristics and directly altered the drone's identification signal. Meanwhile, the drone's direction remained fixed.
"That'll have to wait. Oasis just finished modifying our equipment. It's quite efficient. And if we throw these drones out as fireworks, we won't have any fire support." Thomson also attached explosives to all the drones and rewrote the data.
"It's okay, we'll retreat after the fight. If they find us, I have a backup plan." Negev piloted the drone into the air again. She could only hope that the human troops wouldn't notice the sudden appearance of several drones overhead.
Ten drones rose from the pitch-black night sky and flew toward the machine guns. Each team monitored the other's communications. The enemy command believed their machine guns were the deterrent, and they should be able to buy them ten minutes.
Meanwhile, the other members of the command center were still urging the other troops to rush to the winery. They were also complaining that the speakers were too loud and causing headaches.
But the Palette team, who could directly eavesdrop on the troops' signal transmissions, could quickly find those who received the signals and beat them to death with grenades and submachine guns.
If these troops were given a little more time, they would be able to conclude that the enemy has the ability to detect the source of the signal, and use the signal source as bait to lure the enemy into the trap.
But after all, everything happened too fast, and the capable commanders were probably staying in the winery. The troops outside had decent equipment but not enough combat training.
But the winery's commander proved capable. Someone at the command center immediately noticed an unusual number of drones hovering nearby. He immediately instructed the drone operator to identify the extra drones and mark them.
This is not up to you. Negev activated his signal jammer. The humanoids could rely on the Zener protocol to maintain communication, but all signals from the human side could not be sent out.
The drone, deprived of its command, automatically activated autonomous mode and continued its activities according to its previous instructions. The Griffin drone, which had been assigned a target from the outset, pretended to follow the autonomous drone for a moment before crashing headfirst into the surrounding machine gun positions protected by steel fortifications.
The time is now. Negev removes the signal jammer and detonates the C4 on the drone.
In an instant, a huge roar was heard from the center of the winery. The excessive amount of explosives not only blew up the machine gun positions, but also collapsed part of the winery building.
The surrounding defenders were also affected by the explosives and flying metal debris, and were killed more than ever.
[Charge, charge, charge! Grenade cover!] Negev ordered the puppets to fire several more rounds of smart grenades.
72 Congo Campaign (Part )
The defenders, already demoralized, were completely crushed by the successive explosions. The defensive line formed by vehicles was completely vulnerable.
The smart grenade flew through the air, landing on the person it had promised. The explosion sent blood sprays flying. It also set the vehicles ablaze, transforming each of these highly anticipated vehicles into a new explosive. The hulls of the vehicles were ripped off into the air, and blazing flames spread across the winery.
The expensive wines also caught fire, and the fierce fire spread throughout the manor. The powerful and influential people could no longer bear it, and most of them fled into the passages, preparing to dig up the waste, while others rushed out of the building, trying to escape.
Whoosh—whoosh—the Carcano sisters, several kilometers away, continued to shoot only at those marked as targets that must be killed. There were many soldiers, but few dignitaries.
Some dignitaries, surrounded by their bodyguards, tried to escape, but the bullets still hit their heads accurately, blowing their skulls up like a watermelon.
In just a few seconds, nearly half of the enemy troops were defeated, and the defense line formed by vehicles no longer existed.
The team members accelerated forward. The powerful jetpacks behind them propelled them even faster, each stride covering over ten meters. Their folding bulletproof armor, raised in their left hands, blocked sporadic counterattacks. A distance of several kilometers could be covered in less than a minute.
Almost simultaneously, Thomson and Negev broke through the remaining defenses in the winery. Without a word, Negev and Thomson threw several tactical grenades into the room filled with dignitaries.
The detection scans marked all targets, and Thompson's flash grenades suppressed the counterattack. Negev charged into the hall with his machine gun, striking every powerful figure in Congo. Fortunately, the soldiers and service personnel escaped unscathed.
Thomson threw another flashbang. Two humanoid teams rushed into the room, blowing off the heads of anyone marked for kill or holding a weapon. Anyone who surrendered by laying down their weapons would be incapacitated by a kick.
The command center upstairs also tried to fight back, but the gap between humans and elite humanoids was too great. The two divided the work, with the Negev team running upstairs while Thomson went into the tunnel.
Negev, machine gunner in hand, suppressed the second floor from inside. Unafraid of bullets, she went straight into the hallway and opened fire. The humans in the command center quickly fired a few rounds before being forced to retreat to their rooms.
Meanwhile, TAR21 and Galil of the Negev team prepared their IMR submachine guns and had their puppets throw trigger-mode smart grenades at the blocked windows on the second floor, shattering the reinforced windows. They also threw in tactical grenades in flashbang mode.
Accompanied by a burst of human wailing and roaring, TAR21 and Galil used jet packs to jump into the second-floor room, activated the bulletproof shield with their left arms, and fired into the house with an IMR submachine gun in their right hands.
Some people in the house did escape the flashbang attack and immediately poured ammunition towards the windows, but these bullets were blocked by the transparent bulletproof shields.
TAR21 and Galil quickly shot and killed all the enemies in the house. They kicked down the door and supported the Negev's attack.
And Uzi, who was on standby below, was not idle either. There were several enemies in the rooms who planned to take risks and escape by jumping directly from the second floor. Naturally, these enemies were all eliminated by Uzi and the members left here by Thomson.
The enemy in the last room fought desperately. He prepared a large amount of explosives, ready to exchange for the enemy's life when Negev came in.
But Negev didn't think so. After making sure there were no hostages in the other room, she asked her team members to leave the second floor and Uzi installed a sufficient amount of C4 explosives directly below the room.
With the final blast, the winery's commander, along with the soldiers inside, was sent flying into the air. On the floor leading to the second-floor rooms, all that could be seen was shattered concrete, shattered wall plaster, and a few body parts.
Thompson rushed into the secret passage and killed all the target units digging through the rubble. No one, including the powerful, the wealthy, and the warlords who came to pay their respects, could escape his deadly and precise shooting.
She left behind only the heartbreaking screams of the terrified service personnel who were swept in, and their gasps for life. Thomson followed orders and did not harm anyone who was not armed or in a non-killing unit.
The supplies brought by the medical dolls also found a place to go. Many civilians who were accidentally injured received swift and effective treatment from the medical dolls.
