Chapter 6: The script is wrong
The U.S. military's response to the great changes was still very fast.
It took them just one day to mobilize two army divisions and four air regiments into battle, only to face a crushing defeat.
By the next day, troops from various local bases were quickly mobilized, and units were usually returned from overseas for intensive training. There were more than four U.S. divisions in Los Angeles alone, but three of them belonged to the National Guard, not the Union Army.
The National Guard is a militia that belongs to the states, they do not belong to the federal army sequence, and command needs to transition from the state to the White House. For example, some of the troops that are fighting and stationed overseas, they are called federal troops, that is, the command under the White House. Although they all belong to the same country, the National Guard belongs to the local armed forces, and the National Guard, for example, can choose to ignore the president's orders.
On the first day of the battle, the aliens only had a small amount of land-to-ground anti-aircraft firepower, and although the blow to the US air regiment was not large, the two army divisions were completely disabled.
Fortis and Jackson's 40th Division was one of the completely crippled, and while they were excited about the new troop input, they didn't expect friendly forces to defeat the aliens in one fell swoop.
"We should be about 500 meters away from the place of the firefight." Jackson was half-crouched on the ground, holding a military map in his hand: "That's Lincoln Avenue over there, and it's all populated. The police station we're going to is also on Lincoln Avenue, but in a completely different direction. ”
The sound of gunfire was very fierce, and a few fighter planes flew in the sky from time to time, and the whole city was on fire, and the dense fog that had dissipated a little bit had a tendency to thicken again.
At this time, the sky resounded with the sound of dense propellers, and when they looked up, they saw MV-22Bs forming a tactical formation, and more UH-1Y on the periphery, to say the least, nearly a hundred. The former is a two-propeller helicopter for troop projection, and the latter is a fire support helicopter with rocket launchers and cannons.
Santos suddenly shouted in a hurry: "Hide! Find a basement to hide! They're going to be covered by fire! ”
The aliens on the ground had apparently reacted, and they didn't know what weapon they were using, but they were slanting fire at the helicopter swarm that appeared.
Lin Bin would look up at the sky from time to time when he was running, and many helicopters in the sky were hit, and he was looking at an MV-22B that had lost one of its propellers and was spinning out of control.
The MV-22B, which had lost one of its propellers, had already opened the hatch of the rear wing, and people kept jumping out of the fuselage, but when they fell, they did not open the parachute, but smashed directly into the ground like a brick.
The helicopters in the sky were in formation, and the MV-22B, which was not equipped with external weapons, continued to move forward, but the UH-1Y was lowering altitude.
The four men rushed into a house, led by Fortis and then into the backyard, and without hesitation, he ran to a low house that was raised, pulled the closed door a few times, and then shot it very crisply, and then kicked it open with a hard kick.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Fortis didn't immediately enter the basement, one arm twisting like a Hot Wheels: "There's someone inside!" I just heard screams, stay vigilant! ”
Lin Bin and Jackson glanced at each other, it was Jackson who advanced as a spearhead, Lin Bin kept a distance of one meter from Jackson, Sandos entered, and the last one was Fortes.
A sloping staircase into the basement, the door was closed again, and they suddenly entered the darkness from a patch of sunlight, and their eyes did not adjust to it for a moment.
Jackson at the front turned on the flashlight connected to the rifle, almost at the first time when there was light, everyone saw a figure below, and the next moment they heard a series of rapid gunshots in their ears, and Jackson, who was walking in the front, screamed in pain and fell down directly.
Lin Bin pulled the trigger below without thinking about it, and a shuttle of bullets hit the wall below, leaving bullet holes, and Jackson, who had just fallen, rolled up on the ground.
"Don't shoot, civilians, we're civilians!"
It sounded like the shouts of a middle-aged aunt, and a pistol that I didn't know the model of the pistol was thrown out.
"We just thought it was aliens, and we didn't shoot on purpose."
The basement doesn't have steps leading straight to the doorway, the entrance is on the left side of the base, and Jackson is already standing up with his hands propped up, checking where his injuries are.
"Luckily, it's a pistol." Jackson kept feeling the location where he was hit, where several holes were punched in the combat uniform, revealing the steel plate on the body armor: "I love the bulletproof steel plate I bought from the big country in the East X Bao!" ”
Lin Bin was stunned for a moment when he heard that X-Bao bought bulletproof steel plates, and immediately pointed the muzzle of the gun at the aunt who came out of the door.
"Don't delay any longer." Sandos urged: "The bombing is coming!" ”
As soon as the aunt came out, she was pulled back in by Jackson, Lin Bin and a few other people walked quickly into the basement, and the door was slammed shut.
The basement is very large, and it is surprising that it is not used as a storage room, and it looks no different from a normal house, and you can immediately see a sofa inside, plates with food scraps on a glass table, and even an LCD TV hanging on the wall.
There is an obvious hall that everyone enters, there is lighting in the hall, and there is a door on one side, which should be the bedroom?
It was relatively sudden, and it was expected, first there was a roaring explosion, Lin Bin could clearly feel the vibration of his feet on the ground, followed by a series of explosions, the sense of vibration became stronger and stronger, the cement on the ceiling was shaken and fell a few pieces, and the LCD TV on the wall was simply shocked to the ground.
In the explosion, everyone, including Lin Bin, fell to the ground, and in the shaking of the ground, everyone in the living room except for the aunt was in the same shockproof posture.
Anyone who has been trained knows that when encountering shelling, a person must not lie completely on the ground, but should support his head with his legs and elbows with his legs, and his chest must not be completely attached to the ground, and his mouth should be wide open while covering his ears with his hands.
They were not being shelled, but they were the same in the bombardment range, and they could only lie on the ground if they were unsteady, and they used that kind of body movement to prevent being shocked to death.
The explosion lasted less than a minute, but the crowd was dazzled by the roar and vibration, only to find that it had become dark again, and it was obvious that there was a problem with the power supply equipment or electrical circuits.
"Fortunately, it didn't collapse!"
"Light, we need light."
"Fortes, Sandos, Lin, hear the answer."
Several people responded one after another, and the light of a flashlight appeared, shone shone precarily, and the figures of several people appeared in the light one after another.
"Get out, get out at once!" Jackson swayed the light: "You guys go out first, I'll check on the civilians." ”
Fortes ran to the door by the light, pulled a few times but didn't open it, it was a security door, not only did it require an electronic code, but it also had to open the deadbolt manually.
"Hell, are they doomsday believers? To use such a door. Blast, we need blast! ”
"Lin, you install the explosives. The rest of the people went into another room. ”
Lin Bin had previously said that he had a unique blasting technique in order to earn bonus points, and Forts and Jackson chose him to blast without even thinking about it.
"Light." Lin Bin is really good at blasting, collecting TNT from a few people, but there is no slime. He looked at the security door, checked the damage in the room, and began to smash the wall with the butt of his gun, and said: "This basement is well repaired enough, but the bombing just now has damaged the reinforced concrete, and there is enough risk factor." ”
Sandos laughed a few times: "Are you waiting to die in the basement?" ”
At this time, the other door was opened, and two slender figures could be seen walking out in the blurred light.
"Mom, where are you? What just happened? ”
The voice is female, and the voice is very young. The mother she called was still lying on the ground, and no one paid attention to what was going on.
At this time, the characteristics of the American army were clearly revealed, and Fortis was the first to act, and then Jackson and Santos joined in, and they brutally drove the two girls back into the house, and then carried the aunt who did not know life and death into the house.
It took a little time, Lin Bin tossed and arranged the detonation line and detonation device, entered the inner room to get everyone ready, and pressed the detonator very neatly, and the dull explosion sound was backwards, and a more dull sound followed.
The door opened, and everyone could immediately see the light coming from outside.
"Let's go."
This time it was Lin Bin who took the lead, and when he got to the stairs, he saw that it was full of rubble and bricks, and the outer part had been wiped out.
Before they could get out of the ground, they could hear very heavy gunfire, both light and heavy.
Fortunately, there were no aliens around the basement, and it was relatively unfortunate that there were three more civilians in the team who were obviously incapable of self-preservation.
The aunt didn't die, but she was in a coma, and she was carried by Fortes and ran around, and the two sisters followed Santos, Lin Bin and Jackson one in the front and the other in the back.
Under the alien invasion, although there were repeated battles, the previous houses were not in ruins, but after the round of bombing just now, they changed greatly, not only were there collapsed houses everywhere, but many houses were also burning.
Not all civilians were evacuated, the three aunts were hiding in the basement, and there must be someone hiding.
Lin Bin was depressed to find that their team was increasing in number as they moved, not only civilians who were attracted to it, but also American soldiers who had been scattered earlier.
Civilians were angry about why they were bombing, but they were firmly following the ranks of the soldiers.
The U.S. troops who met were confirming their numbers, and people they knew could laugh when they met each other.
Lin Bin looked at Sandos several times, he didn't think the script was right, if the team was so big, let's not talk about safety, would the protagonist's team accept it?
Just when Lin Bin was about to propose the detachment, a voice appeared in his mind, and his face changed instantly.
