This Game is Too Real

   Chapter 403 Counterattack time!

  The clouds are like boiling flames, black and red are intertwined, and the whole sky seems to be burning.

   The rain of bullets flying all over the sky seemed to be unable to stop the dark curtain from falling, and the billowing smoke had engulfed a corner of the towering castle.

   Even if the flames are weak like a speck of dust.

   but still shatters the myth of the unbreakable shield.

   With the burst of fire from the right wing, all the sergeants on the land showed surprised expressions, and their eyes were full of disbelief.

   and a hint of unease.

"……what happened?"

   "Why is the engine broken again?"

   "Something seemed to hit me just now..."

   "How is that possible! The defense of the deflector shield is absolute, how could something pass through!"

   "Is that a parachute? Or my illusion..."

   "Are those lunatics planning to land on the Heart of Steel?!"

   "What can those few people do... Only one or two hundred people will survive."

   Although the engine on one side was broken, no one was worried that something would happen there.

   As the least technical thing on the Heart of Steel, the row of engines that is connected to the wings has always failed, and it is not a big fuss if it breaks.

  The most accessories in their airship inventory are the blades of the propellers.

   It's just that the plan to transfer the deployment will be delayed for more than two weeks...

   Also looking in the direction of the Heart of Steel, Rachel opened her mouth slightly in surprise.

   From the moment there was a commotion in the air just now, the observation module of the airship couldn't take care of them.

   He didn't know what the natives did.

   But looking at the unbalanced airship, he probably understood that he probably couldn't count on air support for a while.

   At least wait for the airship to stabilize again.

but……

   doesn't matter anymore.

   Looking back from the airship, Rachel looked at the ruins 2 kilometers ahead and narrowed her eyes slightly.

  It was an abandoned town.

  The potholes are scattered with broken walls and ruins, and the country-style villas are covered with vines and moss, and the rain and snow of the years can be seen everywhere.

  The town is quiet, and you can't see any movement, but under the seemingly calm water, a turbulent spiral is brewing.

   stood beside him.

   The second-hand, also wearing a jet-black exoskeleton, held the telescope, carefully observed it, and said in a positive tone.

   "Defensive bunker...but it's very crude, they probably didn't have time to prepare."

   About an hour ago, the observation module of the Heart of Steel found an unidentified team of thousands, approaching them from the southeast, seemingly planning to enter the urban area of ​​Ruigu City.

   Considering the active guerrillas of the indigenous people in the urban area of ​​Ruigu City, the ginseng of the Steel Heart immediately judged that this team should be the reinforcements sent to support the guerrillas.

Of course, it was impossible for General McClane to let this team sneak into the city under his own nose, so he immediately issued an order to the Air Marine Corps, requiring Rachel to block this force in the city before he entered the city. outside.

  Compared to the small force that attacked them before, an armed force with a size of a thousand people can undoubtedly be regarded as a big fish.

   Although in front of the legion, it is still an ant.

However, Rachel did not relax his vigilance because of the insignificance of the other party. Immediately after receiving the order, he brought three thousand troops to cooperate with the army of more than 2,000 entourages, and divided three directions to the thousand troops who reinforced the guerrillas in the city. surrounded.

The    plan went well.

   With the help of aerial reconnaissance, they successfully blocked the advance route of that team, forcing it to give up entering the urban area of ​​Ruigu City and withdraw to the south.

Of course   Rachel would not let the big fish escape, and immediately mobilized armored troops to block their escape route and drove them to the edge of the forest.

   It seemed that they knew that they could not escape. These natives simply gave up their escape and hid in a small town on the southern outskirts of Ruigu City. They planned to use the limited cover here to fight the legion’s pursuers to the death.

  5000 vs 1000.

   And there is also the support of armored units.

  Although the firefight has not officially started, the outcome is clearly decided.

The   pea-sized raindrops fell from the helmet's eyepiece, and the adjutant's mouth curled into a slightly mocking smile.

   "It's a pity that we can't blow them up first, otherwise the battle should be over in ten minutes."

   "It doesn't matter."

  Rachel said lightly, took off the walkie-talkie hanging on her shoulder, and said in a cold voice.

   "All free to fire!"

   "The 1st and 2nd Thousands hold down the west and east."

   "The 1st Armored Squadron, cooperate with the 3000th troops to attack from the north side!"

   A neat answer came from the communication channel.

"Yes!"

   The war machine starts.

Twenty "Scorpion" wheeled chariots took the lead in starting their engines. The twin-mounted 45mm gun barrels on the turret were aimed at the town. They were lined up like a sharp arrow, and they rolled forward unhurriedly. .

   At the same time, the 3000th troop sent two centenarians, which were divided into 20 squads, closely following the infantry chariots and advancing together.

  Each team consists of two heavy infantrymen armed with machine guns and wearing heavy armor, and eight light infantrymen wearing basic protective gear.

   In addition, thirty "Hyena" light armored vehicles also started their engines and were divided into two groups to cover the two wings of the wheeled infantry fighting vehicle formation.

  The quadruple 10mm machine gun mounted on the turret exudes a cold light, like the teeth of a hyena.

   In addition, nearly 500 entourage troops were also pushed to the front.

  These wastelanders held Ripper rifles in their hands, bayonets were already attached to the barrels, and their eyes were half excited and half fearful.

   The rest is nervousness and confusion.

   As cannon fodder, they will launch their first assault under the cover of Hyena light armored vehicles.

   However, it is different from those regular troops who are protected by vehicles.

   Those light vehicles that go with them will not follow them into the town, but will only provide fire cover for them on the periphery.

  If you dare to run away...

   Those thick and long barrels would aim at them without hesitation.

   Looking at the town that had been completely surrounded, Rachel narrowed his eyes slightly, and a trace of joy gradually appeared in his pupils full of killing intent.

   This pleasure does not come from the killing itself, but from the correction of mistakes.

   Without a doubt.

   Those barbarians who resisted order were the source of all chaos and evil.

   They rudely possess inheritances that do not belong to them, squandering undeserved favors with their humble lives, and lingering on like cockroaches and mice.

   mutants, wastelanders, and those xenos... all barbarians, they are essentially the same.

  Only by expelling these filthy blood from the one that remains on this land can this land be restored to purity.

   Only in this way can the great Willands rebuild the kingdom of heaven on this planet.

   and go to more distant worlds to expand.

  The first armored squadron was only the last 1 kilometer away from the town. The twin-mounted 45mm guns of the "Scorpion" infantry chariots lined up in front and arrow formations had begun to vent their ferocious firepower.

   Driven by heavy machine guns, the entourage soldiers who were pushed to the front line shouted like crazy, trying to dispel the fear in their chests, and rushing towards the town like wolves with bullets flying around their heads.

   At the same time, behind the broken wall, the gun flames that gave stubborn resistance began to flicker.

   However, in the face of heavy machine guns and artillery shells, the beams of gunfire are like candles flickering in a storm, shaky and may go out at any time...

  The outermost defenses of the town have been disintegrated.

  500 entourage soldiers were only left with more than 100 people.

  The combat effectiveness of these wastelanders is quite pitiful, but as cannon fodder, their performance is much better than that of the clone infantry. Driven by the desire to survive, they can always burst into miraculous power.

   Watching the defense lines of the natives shrink under the crushing fire, the cruel smile raised by Rachel's mouth became more and more obvious, and a trace of frenzy gradually appeared on his face——

   or crazy.

   "Soldiers! Advance!"

   "Use your bullets, bayonets, daggers and teeth... to open up these filthy worms! Kill them in the cruelest way possible!"

   "Then lubricate our tires with their blood! Let the barbarians know the fate of disobedience!"

  …

   West District, Ruigu City.

  The artillery positions hidden in the mountains are now billowing with thick smoke and messed up everywhere.

   Perhaps it was intended to be reserved for higher-value targets. The opponent did not use the slow-loading 400mm chamber-fired rocket, but the 100mm cannon.

   However, the counter-firepower came faster than expected, and it exceeded everyone's expectations.

   Coughing out of the bunker, Poplar wiped the ashes from his face, searched around in the black and white positions, and finally saw a half-buried hand.

   His heart was overjoyed, and he staggered forward, trying to dig out the buried comrade-in-arms.

   However, when he held that hand and was about to exert force, he pulled out the half arm directly.

   Looking at the broken hand in his hand, Yang Shu's eyes were blank for a few seconds, and finally he took off his jacket in silence and wrapped it up.

   At this moment, a cough came from the side.

   Hearing the movement in the ruins, he hurriedly walked towards the voice again, and this time he finally found a living person.

  The face was buried in the earth, the left half was burnt black, but the lips were still moving, and there was still a faint breathing.

   He recognized this face. The young man was called Stove, and like him, he was a refugee who had escaped from the north.

   Seeing the captain's face, those pupils that had lost their color suddenly brightened a bit.

"team leader……"

   "Don't move! I'll help you out!"

  Poplar removed the stone on him, and brought a shovel from the side.

   Looking at the captain who was digging the earth anxiously, the buried young man coughed dryly and choked out the mud in his mouth.

   "Captain, where are our guns..."

   "Break it up for those grandsons! What the hell, it's so accurate... Forget about that shit!"

"team leader……"

   "What happened to your special mother!"

   "I... can't feel my legs..."

   The hand holding the shovel paused.

   Poplar gritted his teeth and continued to dig.

   "I'll buy you one!"

  Stove grinned.

   He knew that the captain couldn't afford it, and it wasn't cheap.

   But he didn't break it down.

   "Captain, I...Did we win?"

  The poplar glanced back at the burning sky, and the billowing smoke that filled the edge of the airship, and the string of tracers that drilled into the sky from time to time.

   He wasn't sure about the situation over there.

   But he had no doubts in his heart.

"……Most definitely!"

   At the same time, at the end of his eyes, behind the thick smoke pouring like a waterfall, the brutal and **** fight had just begun.

  The fire from the muzzle jumped on the steel-covered deck like beams of flickering thunder.

  The pouring rain washed away the viscous blood and broken flesh, and the scarlet and broken armor rolled and fell to the ground as far away as the abyss.

However--

   Even with continuous casualties, it still cannot stop those who are still alive from moving forward.

  The hatch the size of the manhole cover was pushed upwards, and the heavily armored soldiers, with traction ropes hanging from their waists, climbed up the dome through the ladder, trying to stop the Burning Corps rushing towards the thick and long barrel.

   However, as soon as one of them appeared, an arrow pierced his head and fell back into the cabin of the airship along with the rainwater poured in by the cross flow.

   Holding an assault rifle in his hand, Ye Shi looked at Fang Chang in surprise.

   "Damn, did you bring Dawn with you?"

   "Otherwise? Keep it for the Chinese New Year?"

   Fang Chang laughed, but his hands kept moving, and a high-explosive arrow pinned the hand that was holding the hatch cover with precision.

   The scream of pain was disturbed by the high-altitude airflow.

   The marines who fell back into the cabin took the high-explosive arrow with a delayed fuse back with him.

   quickly exploded with a bang, and there were casualties under the ladder. The hot air rushed upward, and the round hatch on the top shook for a while.

   At this moment, Lao Bai's voice and gunfire resounding like firecrackers came from the communication channel.

   "Don't mess with those infantry!"

"Keep going!"

   Fang Chang said with a solemn expression.

"receive!"

   Only about two hundred soldiers landed successfully.

   The number of marines and crew members on the airship is unknown, so many people can't be killed by them alone.

   Their goal is not to capture the entire airship.

   Instead, destroy the artillery positions on this airship!

   Under Lao Bai's order, the Burning Corps was quickly divided into two groups. One group was led by the strong wind and went to the artillery fire area at the front of the airship, and went straight to the twelve anti-ground support artillery in front of the airship.

   The other group was led by Lao Bai himself and went straight to the 400mm main gun that stood like a chimney!

   The group quickly rushed to the side of the gun barrel, staring at the towering gun barrel, Ye Shi couldn't help but click his tongue.

   "Damn, with such a big barrel, I think people can get in!"

   Lao Bai moved in his heart and looked at Fang Chang who was wearing a light cavalry exoskeleton.

   "You lead a group of people to dash through the barrel, and I lead the rest of the people to attack through the hatch!"

   Fang Chang nodded immediately.

"Let me try!"

   Having said that, he climbed onto the gun barrel, moved his shoulders closer, and found that he was just able to enter, so he immediately waved behind him, and led the team into it without hesitation.

  This kind of large-caliber artillery, in order to prevent the ammunition from being detonated, the ammunition is generally not ready to be fired at any time, but will only be loaded when it is fired.

   As a ten-man squad broke in, the sound of gunfire soon came from below the gun barrel.

   It was too late to confirm the situation inside.

  Old Bai immediately called the others to deploy the thermite, which burned through big holes in the dome of the airship.

The armor of the   Steel Heart is not only a thin layer of iron, but there are also alloy skeletons as a supporting structure under the steel shell.

   The structure of these rebars is so hard that even a "switch knife" can hardly be blasted.

  Old Bai immediately changed his mind, led someone to the nearest hatch, took out the thermite and stuck it on it.

   White light flickered and the hatch blew up.

   Immediately after dropping a smoke bomb, Old Bai, who was wearing a heavy cavalry exoskeleton, clamped the assault rifle under his arm, jumped into the smoke covered by the hail of bullets, and took the lead in the corridor directly below.

  More than a hundred soldiers of the Burning Corps filed in and quickly dispersed in small groups of four.

  The corridor battle, which is bloodier and crueler than the street battle, soon kicked off.

   The engagement distance shall not exceed ten meters.

  The two sides used the corridor as the battlefield, relying on the rooms on both sides, the door and the corners of the corridor as bunkers, fighting for every inch of space in the fierce battle.

   Corpses can be seen everywhere in the corridor, the pungent smell of gunpowder conceals the stench of scorched flesh, and life disappears in seconds.

   At the sound of the gunshots that shattered the eardrums, everyone was red-eyed.

   Whether it is a player of the Burning Corps or a soldier of the Legion!

   cut a **** path in the corridor, and Lao Bai took Ye Shi and quickly rushed to the door of the 400mm main gun bay.

  The two leaned against the door in a tacit understanding, reading Lao Bai's eyes, Ye Shi pulled out the shocking bullet stuck in his chest, and was ready to break the door.

   At this moment, there were two knocks on the door.

   Lao Bai was stunned for a moment, and immediately reached out and opened the door.

   Square, covered in blood, standing behind the door.

   I saw that the exoskeleton had been fragmented, and the crumbling polymer breastplate was printed with countless bullet holes. It was impossible to tell whether the human was holding the exoskeleton or the exoskeleton was holding the human to walk.

   His left hand was leaning against the wall, his right hand was holding an LD-47 assault rifle, and blood dripped on the ground along the downward-facing muzzle.

   But even if he turned into such a ghost, his expression was still very calm, and he even squeezed a smile from his face.

   Before Lao Bai asked what happened, the sound of an explosion came from not far in front of him, and the hot air and dust rolled out of the door.

   Fang Chang coughed and said with steady breathing.

"The magazine isn't here... After entering the gun bay from the barrel, all I can see is the sight system and the loader. My crew and I killed the gunner and put thermite on that loader. , it should have been abolished by now."

   He was the only one who was still standing here. Obviously, the team members who went down with him were all dead.

   But after hearing his words, Old Bai's tense nerves relaxed a little.

   According to the battle plan, if the ammunition depot of the 400mm main gun is found, the bombs there will be used to restrain the personnel on the airship, or the airship will be directly blown up as the case may be.

   If you don't find it, at least blow up the gun barrel and disable the air support firepower of the Legion at all costs!

   And now, that goal is clearly nearing completion.

   The loss of the 400mm main gun will reduce the ground firepower of the Heart of Steel by more than half!

   "Nice job!"

  Looking at Fang Chang who was covered in blood, Lao Bai grinned and joked.

   "My little girlfriend who has been with me for so long, I'm still wondering if your ability will be unfamiliar... Now it seems that I think too much."

   "You really have a lot of ideas."

   wiped the blood from his face, Fang Chang also smiled faintly, and while adjusting his breathing, he did not forget to correct.

   "And I should have said, we're not the kind of relationship you think."

   Lao Bai looked at him in surprise.

"real or fake?"

  Ye Ten smiled and said while frowning.

   "You don't understand that, people enjoy that kind of ambiguous feeling."

   "Fuck off."

   Fang Chang rolled his eyes, too lazy to talk nonsense with this guy.

   Just when he was about to say something, the previously misfired gunfire sounded again, and the bullets flew from the side of the corridor.

   While fighting back, everyone retreated and retreated to the gun bay of the 400mm main gun.

   "Damn...these big noses are too ruthless. Just after they killed a group of people, another group came up."

   Even as an opponent, Fang Chang had to admit that in terms of will to fight, these people are really strong and speechless.

  If it were a group of predators, they might have killed the entire airship by now.

   It’s impossible to be surrounded here.

   There was a screeching sound in the corridor outside the door.

   Listening to the content, it seems to be persuading to surrender.

   "You are surrounded!"

   "General McClane promised that as long as you lay down your weapons and surrender, he will allow you to get out of here alive."

   The voices outside were noisy, and Lao Bai was only half-understood, so he looked at Fang Chang to the side.

   "What are they beeping?"

   Square and long casually.

   "I'm persuading me to surrender."

  Old Bai was stunned for a moment, then looked at the door and cursed.

   "To persuade him to surrender? Haha, **** it, I'm trying so hard to climb up just to surrender? Let him eat shit!"

After    finished scolding, Lao Bai realized that the other party did not understand, so he hurriedly looked at Fang Chang again.

   "You translate for them!"

   Fang Chang sighed and reluctantly translated this nonsense.

   The sergeants who were crowded outside were stunned for a moment, but they quickly recovered, and after a burst of screeching shouts, they scolded back.

   This time, even Fang Chang couldn't understand what they were talking about. Seeing several teammates looking at him, he shrugged helplessly.

   "It's probably a West Coast dialect..."

   Ye Shi sighed.

   "You said that if they jumped over the wall in a hurry and didn't talk about martial arts, what would happen if they poured mines or dynamite directly at us?"

   Fang Chang laughed.

   "It doesn't matter, this is their crystal anyway. If they plan to raise the 400mm main gun together, they can blow it up."

"Haha, that's right! Come on if you want to bomb!" Lao Bai gave a hearty smile, grinned, and continued, "Anyway, the 400mm main gun has been paralyzed, and our mission has been completed! What we have to do now is to try our best to do as much as possible. Hold and wait for support..."

   Taking a breath, he focused his gaze on the door leading to the corridor not far away, rubbing the trigger with his index finger.

   "The rest... just look at the wind!"

  …

   Command post several kilometers away from artillery positions.

   As the messenger, I was the darkest. I trotted back to Brother Quan Shui and gave a military salute with a sense of immersion.

"Report!"

   "The feint group failed to reach the southern city for defense! They implemented the planned No. 3 plan and retreated to the town next to Highway 417 in the southern suburbs!"

   The spring commander who held the telescope nodded.

"I see."

  According to the original plan, a mixed team of 1,000 people, led by the Silver Corps and other third-line corps, will go to the southern urban area of ​​Ruigu City, relying on the fortifications built in advance to start defense.

   Wait until the bait contains the enemy's large army, and the death corps scattered in the urban area and three thousand-person teams composed of mercenaries will launch a general attack, using anti-tank equipment to annihilate the enemy's armored units, while forcing the enemy to withdraw from the urban area.

   Immediately afterwards, the skeleton corps equipped with armored units will unite with the flying attack formation of the goblin corps to launch a fatal blow to the retreating corps.

   As for the jungle corps, they will perform the final operation of "air support".

   However, it is impossible to expect every aspect of a plan to be executed flawlessly.

  The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly.

   When he played the card, the opponent also played the card.

  According to the pre-established battle plan, if the feint team failed to arrive, they could only retreat to "town 417", and the center of gravity of the ground battlefield could only be moved from the southern urban area to the southern suburbs.

   As one of the alternatives, that town also has fortifications they dug secretly.

   It's just that compared to the positions they prepared in the city, the positions there can only be described by the word "poor".

  Because of the existence of airships, they were unable to carry out large-scale construction in small towns with few shelters, and they could only construct at night, so they only had time to prepare some simple bomb shelters and sandbags, and there was no underground passage connecting the bunkers.

   Standing beside Commander Fountain, Kakarot said with a frown.

   "There are at least three thousand-man teams in the siege and feint group. I'm afraid they won't last long..."

   Mixed Thousands Team is mainly composed of some professional players with combat experience and casual players.

  Although there are also awakeners and veterans who have participated in more than 6 battles, their overall combat effectiveness is quite limited, which is obviously not comparable to the regular army of the alliance.

   Even if their morale is high, they are ready to fight to the last man.

  Commander Quan Shui frowned, holding the binoculars and looking at the blurry outline in the south, suddenly opened his mouth and said.

   "How many guns do we have?"

   "Report! Artillery positions have been wiped out! Only the last twenty rocket launchers left in support fire!" Even if the situation was in jeopardy, my darkest salute was still very energetic.

   "Where's the plane?" Commander Izumi asked calmly.

   I immediately replied: "Dragonfly transport aircraft have been wiped out, and the Goblin Corps Mosquito attack aircraft formation is still full!"

   Looking at the contemplative spring, Kakarot, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but say.

"The other party is equipped with a large number of quadruple-mounted anti-aircraft machine guns, and that thing is not the kind of improvised by the bone-biting tribe. If it is handed over to the goblin army, I am afraid there is only one chance... or I will bring a team to support them. ."

  The Storm Corps still has more than 300 people on standby in the jungle, ready to respond everywhere.

   However, even if this person fills in, it is a drop in the bucket, and he will be eaten by the opposite side in minutes.

   not only can not relieve the pressure of the feint team, but may become passive because of this.

   It is also impossible to order the Death Corps to attack in advance.

   If the general attack is launched in advance before the enemy's artillery positions are paralyzed, once the enemy's support firepower is restored, all the targets exposed outside the cover will become live targets.

   "It's not time yet!"

Commander    Spring Water looked in the direction of the Heart of Steel, and his originally calm mood couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

   Originally, in his expectation, after breaking through the defense line, half of the people should be able to land on the dome of the Heart of Steel.

   However, after the paratroopers jumped down, more than half of the casualties had already occurred before they landed, and those who landed successfully might not be able to make up two hundred troops.

   Even though he had already made the worst assumptions and expected the opponent's combat power to the maximum extent, the firepower limit of the Heart of Steel still exceeded his expectations.

  Especially in the end, they actually used the savage operation to point the engine to the sky.

   If it wasn't for Luo Yu's last-minute judgment, the Burning Corps that forced the landing might have been wiped out.

  Although he did not doubt the combat effectiveness of those bigwigs, the victory or defeat in the air has undoubtedly become the biggest variable on the entire battlefield.

  's thoughts were spinning fast, and just as Quan Shui was thinking about the countermeasures, a string of fire suddenly flashed in the air.

   I saw the gun bay in the front and bottom of the airship, suddenly burst into a ball of fire, and the burning flame swallowed the twelve gun barrels pointing forward.

   At the same time, a thin plume of red smoke floated out of the barrel of the 400mm main gun at almost the same time.

  Although in the dark fog and pouring rain, the wisp of red smoke was faintly like a candle flickering in a storm, but everyone on the ground could still clearly see its existence.

   staring blankly at the sky, Kakarot muttered something.

   "Fuck, awesome!"

   Really blow up? !

   also saw the flames blooming in the sky, the dark clouds on the face of the spring were swept away, and the eyes instantly released joy.

  It's done!

not only that--

   Even faster than planned.

   Without the slightest hesitation, he ordered immediately.

   "The rocket artillery position fires immediately! The armored cluster on the north side of the target town!"

   "Also, inform the fringe dude!"

   "It's time to fight back!"
