Section 149 Translocation of the king's chariot 12
A huge explosion shook the heavens and the earth. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In this silent battlefield, almost everyone subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.
Movements that are beyond common sense can be unsettling. There are similar records on Earth that when the battlefield suddenly falls silent, it will give soldiers a sense of unreality, and if this silence lasts for a long time, it will cause soldiers to have more psychological pressure.
Perhaps everyone will ask this question: what happened?
A second explosion followed. A corner of the battlefield illuminated in the darkness by the flames generated by the explosion. Everyone could see several exoskeletons flying into the sky in the firelight.
Although the light weapons of this world, that is, universal rifles, are inferior to the gunpowder weapons of the earth. But if we talk about the scientific and technological content, then even Lu Wu must admit that the scientific and technological content of this world's weapons is higher than that of the earth. In other words, if the earth wants to imitate the universal rifle or exoskeleton armor here, it will be very difficult, and on the contrary, the difficulty of this world to imitate the weapons on the earth is almost zero.
Therefore, why is there a gun without a cannon in this world (although the name of the electromagnetic cannon is called "cannon," strictly speaking, it is actually a kind of gun)? Why is it that weapons that use the air waves and fragments generated by explosions to kill and injure the enemy are not widely used? Lu Wu has always been confused. According to the Red Coat, this is because of the presence of exoskeleton armor. Compared to the fragile human body, exoskeleton armor is highly resistant to this type of killing, which eventually causes such weapons to slowly disappear.
What was happening in front of him seemed to prove Red's assertions.
After the first few loud explosions, more explosions rang out. These explosions sound much softer, less shocking, and more dense. The flames from the explosion were so bright that they directly reflected a group of soldiers in exoskeleton armor in the night. The equipment of these soldiers is very mixed, and there are dozens of models of exoskeleton armor on their bodies. Lu Wu could easily identify the soldiers who were none other than Grumas.
A dense rain of bullets is falling on them. It was a mortar fired from a mortar position. The numerous mortar fires were not earth-shattering, but they were an astonishing spectacle. It felt like countless orange-yellow flowers suddenly bloomed around these soldiers, engulfing everything in an instant.
The flowers withered in an instant, and the world went dark. But after a heartbeat, the next round of flowers blooms. From the interval between the two rounds, it can be seen that the lethality of these dense artillery fire is not very good.
The hoplites did fall several times, but they were only a small casualty compared to their numbers. Moreover, Lu Wu knew that although Grumas's subordinates were fully reloaded, not everyone was completely wrapped under thick armor. Some people have some parts of their body that are not protected by armor due to personal habits or a small amount of mutilation in the armor itself. Of course, under normal circumstances, this is not much of a weakness, but in this kind of bullet rain test, this kind of body part of the body is not protected by armor is very bad. These people were the main casualties in the hail of bullets.
The remaining hoplites, though disorganized by the sudden attack, were hardly hit. The first wave of flowers began to appear in the darkness, and by the fourth wave of small yellow flowers blooming, at least more than ninety percent of the soldiers were still moving.
During these four waves of artillery fire, Grumas's soldiers were in complete confusion due to the sudden attack, and did not take any effective means of dodging or counterattacking. In other words, to stand there and be beaten. But even if they were beaten standing still, the casualties were limited. Basically, as long as the explosion is not very close, then the power can only blow the hoplites around.
Even some of the soldiers who were swept away by the blast gradually climbed up. The explosion may have done some damage to them, but it was clearly not enough to render them incapacitated.
In this world, exoskeleton armor is a tried-and-true weapon that has become very mature. The difference between the so-called "new" and "old" is only a slight improvement in its armor material, output size, body structure size, and so on.
This sudden artillery attack can be said to have completely stunned this unit. But even if you are stunned, standing there for so long, and receiving four rounds of artillery fire in front and back, the idiot should come to his senses. Even paramecium responds to stimuli.
The four waves of artillery fire did not cause them heavy casualties, but as the saying goes, sand gathers into a tower, and armpits into a fur. Although it is said that the exoskeleton armor can withstand it, it is not infinitely bearable.
"Quick, charge!" the commander of the front line immediately made this correct judgment. Of course, he could have chosen to retreat, but that would have violated Grummas's orders.
Everyone sped up and rushed forward, barely noticing the large, flat discus on the ground, and of course, the thin wires. On Earth, this is called tripping and stepping on mine, the two most common ways to trigger mines.
Of course, these are not ordinary mines. On Earth, mines have not only anti-infantry mines, but also anti-tank mines. If there is any difference between the two, it is the difference in power (charge).
The mines laid out here are reinforced versions, or rather, they are created to deal with exoskeleton armor.
If it is a normal situation, it is estimated that after the first few mines, the whole team will be alerted, so as to discover this new weapon that has never appeared before. However, after being attacked by the artillery fire just now, there was no room for this kind of slow groping and discovery. In addition, both are explosions, and although people in the distance can feel that one explosion is powerful and the other is small (in fact, it is a loud sound and a small sound), but for the group of soldiers at the center of the storm, it is difficult to distinguish between the two. Anyway, no matter what the sound of the explosion, its sound is beyond the normal range of the human ear. If the exoskeleton armor is not equipped with sound insulation facilities, then it can only be shocked to the point that the whole brain is buzzing.
One by one, the mines are stepped on by the Feet of Steel, and then, triggered, they explode.
The small yellow flowers caused by mortar shells are still blooming, but they are much less attractive than the large red flowers caused by anti-armor mines. As mentioned earlier, the effect of the little yellow flower is to blow people to the ground, and even fly out. But these big red flowers can directly make the exoskeleton armor rise to mid-air above ten meters.
Even exoskeleton armor cannot withstand such an impact. Even if it is a body of steel, its resistance is limited. Not to mention that what is inside the steel is the fragile flesh and blood after all, even if the equipment can withstand it, the operators inside can't stand it. Those who were blown down by the little yellow flower could still get up again, but the soldiers who were swallowed by the big red flower could not stand up again at all.
Some exoskeleton armor could not withstand the impact, and the energy leaked, eventually causing an explosion or fire. However, there are also some exoskeletons that lie silently on the ground, and only dark red liquid gushes out of the cracks, accumulating into small puddles.
If the situation were to be changed, it is estimated that this force would have stopped a long time ago. But the constant falling artillery fire from the sky interfered with their sight and hearing. Everyone knows that the best way to avoid such a long-range strike is to approach the enemy as quickly as possible. As long as the two armies enter a state of head-to-head combat, then this kind of long-range artillery fire is not good. So what everybody does is rush forward quickly.
It wasn't until they broke out of the minefield and settled down that they realized what a serious casualty they had suffered on their side. At least a third of the forces have disappeared from this death passage.
Ahead, the enemy's troops had formed a neat horizontal formation, silently blocking the front. The uniform equipment and neat formation constituted a silent pressure, even in the dark of night, still discouraged the soldiers who rushed out of the minefield.
The commander appointed by Grumas stood on the front lines of his side. Looking at the enemy's strong military formation, he clearly felt an indescribable dryness in his throat, and he couldn't even swallow a mouthful of saliva to moisten his throat.
He looked back and couldn't look back. Although the exoskeleton armor covers the face, in terms of body language and actions, it can be seen that the subordinates are also hairy. Almost no one is moving forward, everyone subconsciously retreats backwards, and people are even crowded together.
This battle hangs in the air.
"Don't be afraid!" he finally remembered Grummas's methods. He knew very well that this counterattack was ordered by Grumas himself, and if he did not retreat without a fight, his fate would definitely not be better. "There are still more people than us!"
In the ranks of the enemy, a guy who seemed to be a junior officer made a gesture. In the next moment, all the soldiers in the front row pulled out their electromagnetic cannons from their bodies, raised them to aim, and pointed their guns to this side.
Almost everyone gasped.
Although the electromagnetic cannon is said to be a long-range weapon equipped with exoskeleton armor, it is actually quite valuable. Thanks to some unspoken rule of this world, the powerful electromagnetic cannon is a single shot, and it takes time to reload after firing. Therefore, if it is a small-scale battle, the threat of electromagnetic cannons is not as great as everyone thinks. This resulted in a lot of exoskeleton armor not being equipped with this weapon.
Grumas's unit, for example, basically does not have this kind of equipment.
But at this moment, when being pointed at such a row of electromagnetic guns, the situation is completely different. Even the most daring person can feel the sensation of death hovering overhead.
"Hide ......" Before his words fell, and his subordinates didn't have time to react, the deadly first wave of attacks had arrived.
In this world, no armor can stop the electromagnetic gun, and the same is true for exoskeleton armor.
On the front line of battle, a storm of steel fragments and flesh broke out in an instant. The power of the electromagnetic cannon is not covered. In Lu Wu's opinion, if it weren't for the warlocks who obviously suppressed the further development of this weapon, the deaths in this world would probably increase several times. Even ordinary people like Lu Wu can see that the potential of this weapon has not been exploited at all. Because according to the principle of this weapon, its bursts, miniaturization (allowing ordinary people to use it without an exoskeleton) and the like should not be difficult.
For example, it is probably like the government on Earth that only allows single-shot rifles, but prohibits the development of automatic firearms. If the current electromagnetic cannon can be designed to fire in bursts, it may be possible to directly eliminate the thick armor on the outside of the exoskeleton armor.
However, this is just an emotion, at least with the current electromagnetic cannon, it is okay to say that it is okay to deal a heavy blow to the enemy before the hand-to-hand engagement, but it is obviously not enough to completely defeat the enemy with a superior number on this basis.
"Hurry up!" The commander was really possessed by Fuxing this time, and this wave of terrible blows actually passed by him. There were three people around him who had been beaten to pieces, but he was intact. "Don't give them a second shot. ”
This shout summoned the courage of the survivors, or rather, the casualty just now only activated the courage of the outlaws. It was not clear who was in the lead, but in the blink of an eye, they had left behind their wounded comrades and rushed forward like a wave of rage.
