Chapter 203: War Never Changes
"Damn, their fire is too high!" a militiaman in body armor tried to poke his rifle out of the bunker with his back against the bunker, but was quickly suppressed by the bullets that came at him.
"We need support! Repeat, we need support!"
Soldiers huddled behind concrete walls with their rifles in their arms, yelling at unresponsive communications devices.
A soldier risked his life to reach out of cover, aimed the anti-armor rocket launcher he was carrying on his shoulder at the pouring infantry vehicle, and pulled the trigger.
Dragging the red tail flame, the rockets flew away like an iron fist. However, about ten meters away from the infantry vehicle, the activated nitrogen-reactive armor quickly blew away, smashing into the nearby shops like a short-line kite.
Ensuing strafing fire tore the soldier out of cover to pieces.
The war broke out too suddenly.
The enemy is not only the Crimson Chamber of Commerce, but even some of the soldiers of the militia regiment. They had already been bought by the Crimson Chamber of Commerce in advance, and the moment the infantry vehicle drove into the inner circle, they responded to the anti-flag of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce.
A thoroughly asymmetrical war.
Although neither side used heavy firepower, the private soldiers of the Committee of Ten were much stronger than those of the militia regiment. Not just in training, but also in equipment. Although there are 400 militiamen on the side of the council in the inner circle, they are still completely under pressure and beaten in the face of only 150 Crimson Chamber of Commerce soldiers.
Not to mention that there were more than 100 militiamen who suddenly jumped back, not to mention that there were five infantry vehicles equipped with heavy machine guns on the opposite side.
On the Crimson Chamber of Commerce's side, even ordinary light infantry are equipped with carbon nano armor and wear digital helmets to assist in aiming. Not to mention the special forces in mechanical exoskeletons, and the iron bumps in power armor.
Because of their own selfishness, although they have the most advanced arms production line in the wasteland, the parliament has never made a bill to renew the militia corps. Because only if the militia regiments are poorly equipped, their private soldiers will be "hired". The monthly commission is a lot of money, and this commission is paid by taxes and is nothing short of a gold mine.
But now, they are reaping the consequences.
It can fight against the Crimson Chamber of Commerce in terms of equipment. It was the private soldiers of the other nine parliamentarians. However, because of the exploration plan of the city center, almost all of their efforts were put into the city center. At this moment, they are also facing the harvest of the armored forces of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce, and it is still unknown how much can be left.
Standing on the roof of the Zhao Group Building, Zhao Chenwu wordlessly looked down at the sporadic firelight in the inner circle.
The light of the fire began to shrink inward from the edge of the wall. He knew exactly what that meant.
The Crimson Chamber of Commerce had gained the upper hand, and the 400 militia soldiers on the front line and the 50 private soldiers of the various councillors who had been improvised were beaten and retreated.
He never imagined that five infantry vehicles would be able to push him into such a desperate situation.
However, this is the case, in the absence of heavy firepower on both sides, infantry vehicles can be dads.
Push open the door. It was Su Lei who walked in.
This beautiful secretary with a cold look had changed into a jet-black combat uniform at this moment, and carried a Ripper automatic rifle produced by the Zhao Group Military Factory on her waist. Usually her identity is Zhao Chenwu's secretary, lover and driver, but at critical moments, she will also pick up a gun and act as his bodyguard.
"Boss, the Crimson Chamber of Commerce is approaching our building, please retreat to safety with me. Su Lei said in a deep voice.
"Retreat? Where else can we retreat? The gate is sealed. Zhao Chenwu smiled miserably.
Chen Wei has lost contact, but he is also dead.
Standing at this height, of course, he couldn't fail to see the mushroom cloud.
Nuclear bomb.
He'd almost forget about it.
Speaking of which, that thing is probably the cheapest thing.
"The underground sanctuary of the Paradise Island Hotel. Su Lei said.
Hearing this, Zhao Chenwu shook his head.
"I never intended to use that thing. There is no refuge that can be hid forever. If the old thing surnamed Cao wins, even if I stay underground for ten years and then come out, the ending will be the same. ”
He has too much work here, and even if he dies, he is not willing to give up these things.
"I will fight for you to the end. Giving up on convincing the boss, Su Lei sighed, and a rare smile appeared on her cold face.
Zhao Chenwu was stunned, smiled weakly, didn't say anything, just continued to look downstairs.
Rifle loaded. Su Lei turned and walked downstairs.
"Haven't you come yet?" muttered to himself, glancing at the electronic watch on the table.
Jiang Chen promised to send reinforcements.
This was his last straw.
The Crimson Chamber of Commerce was approaching, and he could even see through the inky bulletproof glass that was venting fire on the streets. Suppressed the infantry vehicles of the militia regiments. The power armor went around the back of the bunker with its high mobility, and the right-handed minigun brutally tore apart the infantry lying on the ground.
Suddenly, there was a huge earthquake under the soles of the feet, and the bulletproof glass was shaken. He had guessed what was happening, but he looked at the touchpad on his desk anyway.
When I pressed the power button, a picture appeared in the hall.
The doorway was a soldier of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce wearing a mechanical exoskeleton, and the steel protective door had been blown open by them with thermite. The group of soldiers with rifles quickly burst into the building. An exchange of fire ensued with the security guards in the building.
There is not much suspense in the battle, although the security guards of the Zhao group have also undergone military training, but compared to these professional soldiers, the combat effectiveness is still a big difference. What's more, they were just wearing body armor that was no different from the militia regiment, and they looked very powerless in the face of the attacks of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce soldiers.
The first floor was quickly captured.
Zhao Chenwu watched as a soldier wearing a mechanical exoskeleton pulled out a pistol and executed a wounded and struggling security guard, then pointed the gun at the camera and pulled the trigger with a sinister smile.
The lens is broken.
The elevator was cut off, and the Crimson Chamber of Commerce engaged in a fierce battle with the Zhao Group's security guards in the safe passage. Chests, safes, and other things were thrown into the stairs as obstacles, but to no avail of the situation.
Su Lei was very strong in combat, and organized the remaining twenty or so security guards together, and fought fiercely with the soldiers of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce in the hall on the 12th floor. Leaning against the concrete-walled bunker, she occasionally poked out her rifle and fired back.
But judging from the blood on her shoulder, she couldn't hold out for long.
The security guard took out the blast shield to act as cover and returned fire with a short-range rifle.
Dome-shaped security robots with miniguns flashed out of the corner, and the fire caused a certain amount of casualties to the Crimson Chamber of Commerce soldiers who had stormed the building.
But that's about it.
The EMP grenade quickly paralyzed its weapon system, and the ray gun sliced through its metal armor without any suspense, reducing it to a pile of scrap metal.
This is not a military factory, just an office building of the Zhao Group.
Under the checks and balances of power, no one would have imagined that a war would one day break out here.
In the picture, Su Lei held the gun steadily, maintained a shooting posture and fought and retreated. There are only a few security guards left with him.
It seems that it can't be stopped.
With a sigh, Zhao Chenwu opened the drawer.
Inside was a revolver.
"Is this the end of it?" muttered to himself, slowly filling the wheel with bullets.
It's been a long time since he's been fighting like a warrior on the front lines, and it seems to have been since the moment he became a Council of Ten.
But now, there are no more options.
The sound of explosions came from under his feet from time to time, but Zhao Chenwu's heart was unprecedentedly calm.
Even if reinforcements arrive, I'm afraid it will be too late.
At this moment, a blinding white light suddenly lit up on the street in front of the building.
The deafening explosion almost made him forget to think, and the bulletproof glass was covered with a dense layer of cracks in an instant.
The rising mushroom cloud.
"Grass. His lips twitched, and his pupils faltered for a while, and it took him half a moment to spit out such a word.
Nuclear bomb!
Someone actually detonated a nuclear bomb in the inner ring!
Certainly not the people of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce, they have already gained the upper hand. It's not the militia either, they don't have such a thing at all.
It could only be a certain parliamentarian!
It is better to die together than to give up the power in hand.
Zhao Chenwu looked at the mushroom cloud outside the window in a daze, but the movements in his hands had stopped.
The blast wave overturned the infantry vehicles, engulfing the fleeing power armor and sweeping over all the soldiers who could not escape. A house worth tens of thousands of Yajing collapsed. Unarmed civilians wept over the ruins, and merchants watched in silence as their shops reduced to rubble, even forgetting to flee
As for the soldiers who rushed to his mansion, he didn't want to look at it anymore.
It's been completely killed.
Looking at the parliament building in the distance, the flag symbolizing alliance and democracy was lowered, and the corners of his mouth raised a mocking smile
The flag of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce has been raised on the roof of the Houses of Parliament.
The round table had been split in half, and Cao Jinsong stood alone in front of the window, staring at the mushroom cloud outside the window in a daze.
It was like a basin of cold water poured on his head, and the excitement of reaching the pinnacle of power in his chest was instantly cooled.
Although he considered that some lawmakers might show some terrible cards, after all, a coup d'état was a gamble.
But he never thought that someone would detonate a nuclear bomb here.
"Have you already killed Red-Eye?" his voice was slightly bitter.
Speaking of which, in a wasteland without order, it would have been a very stupid thing to think about the bottom line.
Dropping a nuclear bomb on one's own city, even in a pre-war country, was aware of this.
He seemed to have seen this scene somewhere.
Because it was so far away, that memory was already clouded with a white mist
War has never changed. (To be continued.) )
