Chapter 1072: Breaking it with Force
More than 40 armoured vehicles marched into the infected zone, and just when everyone thought it would be a one-sided British show of arms, things took a dramatic turn in a matter of minutes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
No one knows how fierce the firefighting was in the infected area, but almost the whole world saw the results of this firefight. Only five of the forty armored vehicles returned, and all the infantry were there. The spears and cannons suffered from a swarm of bugs, and Colonel Morston, who commanded the operation, could not accept such an outcome.
Not only did he fail to accept it, but the melon-eating crowd who watched the disaster with their mobile phones also couldn't accept such a reality.
From the city of Cagayan to Tokyo, the word Resident Evil has struck the fragile nerves of the world's people again and again. Concepts that were thought to only appear in literature, film and television have now been brought to life and easily attracted enough attention around the world.
and panic ......
On social platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and the scarf, the discussion about X2 germs has been noisy.
"Last time it was a T-virus, this time it's X2 bacteria? God, are those capitalists crazy? It's good for them to research this kind of thing? The state should legislate to ban these dangerous researches!"
"Unbelievable, it was really the British army who went in just now? Are the British armored vehicles all paper paste? It's just a bunch of xenomorphs, and the tracks are going to be crushed! Can their teeth still gnaw at the armor?"
"Doomsday Survival Handbook, Ten Years of Doom Enthusiast teaches you how to survive the apocalypse, in limited quantities, as fast as possible. ”
"Send peacekeeping troops, it's not a country's problem, it's the whole world's problem......"
"I'm curious now, is there such a research institute in every Arrowhead Company's military base?"
“……”
What is going on on social platforms, Colonel Morston can't see it for the time being. He is now wondering how to explain the catastrophic fiasco to the Ministry of Defense and Parliament. An entire mechanized battalion fell into it without a defense!
God, Mr. Prime Minister is also counting on him to settle this matter beautifully and pull Finland into the NATO family. And now, his face was pale, and he didn't even have the courage to make a battle plan, and he refused to send any more troops inside.
Not to mention the mechanized troops of a brigade, I am afraid that it will not be enough for a division to fill in!
The Finnish government was anxious and semi-threatened to say that if they couldn't get rid of the brood's troubles, they would contact the Transwarp trade side to find a solution.
Morston scoffed at the Finnish government's claims, because it was not at all a question of combat effectiveness. Even the armored car can be melted out of a hole by the acid, maybe the mechanical exoskeleton of the Star Ring Trade can be harder than the armored car?
Let's honestly wait for scientists to figure out what this X2 bacterium is. Morston had a hunch that if he could find something that could kill those spore masses, the xenos would die on their own.
"I admit that we underestimated the strength of the brood and hastily sent troops into the infected area was a wrong choice," Morston explained in front of the media, "The scientific team from London is already studying the DNA structure of these spores, and I believe it will not be long before we can devise a method to inactivate the X2 bacteria." ”
The reporter asked: "Colonel Morston, does this mean that Britain will give up military aid to Finland?"
"NATO will never abandon any friendly partner, but now this is no longer something that Britain alone can solve. ”
“……”
"God...... Look! What's that?"
Just as Colonel Morston was busy explaining to the media, an exclamation suddenly came from the crowd around him. I saw a female reporter looking at the sky with a shocked expression, and her finger pointed in the direction of the infected area.
"Fireballs" fell from the sky.
Even after a few kilometers, you can still clearly hear the pop that broke through the sound barrier.
The camera that was originally facing Colonel Morston turned to the airspace. Almost at the same time, earth-shattering tremors came from the soles of everyone's feet, shaking everyone's eyes and hearts.
If nothing else, this is the first time that a space-based weapon of Star Ring Trade has appeared in front of the cameras of media reporters.
Morston was glad that the media had moved away from the camera, and he knew very well that the expression on his face at the moment must be wonderful.
……
A hundred kilometers away in Murmansk, in the presidential suite of the Hilton Hotel, Jiang Chen sat on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed, overlooking through the holographic screen, remotely directing the battle of the Star Ring Trade against the Xenomorphs.
The space-based weapon dispersed the spore cluster shrouded outside the military base for a short time, and after a round of bombardment, Jiang Chen saw the fragmented ground through the satellite map on the holographic screen through a short gap.
"Huh, it didn't collapse?" staring at the holographic screen, Jiang Chen sighed strangely.
It stands to reason that even if this underground bunker is more than 500 meters deep, it is impossible to block the bombardment of tungsten core bombs. This is a tungsten ball falling from a synchronous orbit, and even if the 500 meters are made of reinforced concrete, it should be turned into cement shavings at this time.
This brood is really weird.
Jiang Chen's eyes moved slightly, and he gave an order to Ivan.
"Keep banging for me! If you don't use it in the first round, you will go to the second round!
Xenos are very resilient, and ordinary minor injuries only need a few breaths of air with spores to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Although the British army carried out several rounds of bombardment of military bases, they did not really kill many xenos. Breaking an arm or leg may be a fatal injury for humans, but for this group of organized xenos, it is something that can be recovered by going back to the brood and lying down for a while.
Even if they are killed on the spot, as long as the corpse is dragged back, it will not take long for it to be recycled into organic matter and re-hatched into a new xenomorph.
What's more, most xenos hide underground.
Jiang Chen's battle plan was very simple and crude, that is, fatigue tactics, using space-based weapons to bombard to the death! As long as he could break the defense, he couldn't kill with one punch and then punched again, until the brood exposed its body!
The tungsten core bomb was not for the xenomorphs in the first place, but for destroying the underground bunkers. All of the attacks landed within a circle of ten meters in diameter, and even though the Brood's recovery ability was as strong as that of an xenomorph, the space-based weapons of the Star Ring Trade were not vegetarian. In terms of the vertical penetration of weapons, no country on this planet can catch up with them!
Jiang Chen didn't know that his simple and crude plan made Carmen, who was hiding underground, feel miserable.
Round 1, Round 2...... Round after round of tungsten core bombs smashed down from the synchronous track, Jiang Chen burned money, and Carmen burned organic matter. Both sides are dripping blood, but Carmen, who is obviously more distressed by the limited resources.
Soon, the brood couldn't hold on.
If you want to ask Jiang Chen how he knew, you can see it from the satellite images.
As the dust cleared, the soil had completely peeled away, revealing the intertwined roots underground. There is no doubt that these strong roots are responsible for the sturdiness of the underground bunker, and the soil is reinforced with concrete defense.
The brood released spore gases in vain, trying to hide its weakness, but Jiang Chen did not miss this opportunity and ordered Ivan to take advantage of the victory to pursue.
Strikes from the geostationary orbit continued to fall, and when the Electroray C-1 deployed in the geostationary orbit dropped the last of the tungsten core projectiles, the tentacles covering the underground bunker also broke off. The brood of defenses has completely collapsed, revealing the flesh bubbles hiding in underground bunkers.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Chen knew that the opportunity had come, and immediately gave an order to Ivan.
"The brood has been exposed, and the orbital weapon attack has stopped. Pass my order, the 3rd Power Armored Brigade, the airborne operation begins!"
"Yes!" replied Ivan, sonorously.
The waterfall of orbital strikes ended, and a full fifteen minutes had passed since the start. The reporters, soldiers, and townspeople standing next to the small town of Partak were still in a stunned posture, looking up at the clear airspace at a forty-five degree angle.
Colonel Morston opened and closed his mouth, unable to utter a word. The Finnish Minister of Defense, standing next to him, had a dark face and remorse, knowing that he should have asked the Warp Trade to settle the matter in the first place. As for those reporters, they have already begun to think about what kind of rhetoric to use to narrate this devastating "air raid".
No one was relieved of their surprise.
Just when everyone thought it was over, rows of firelight fell from the clear sky towards the ground...... (To be continued.) )
