Chapter 54: Beautiful Rabbit fights to the end
Under the light of the snow-bright searchlight, Fandao's armed transport airship could not hide even in the dark night, but it still risked a collision and maneuvered close to the ground, trying to escape.
However, it had no chance at all, and in order to intercept the target, the interception team sent by the steel city-state had four airships, among which the command boat was equipped with an aviation radar, which could firmly lock on to the target even in the dark night. The other two combat airships were armed with a ยท50 large-caliber machine gun, enough to tear any small armored target to shreds.
"Da Da Da!" The combat airship began to intercept and fire at the front of the Banshima transport airship, but the transport airship continued to maneuver as best it could.
Cheng Gang stood on the bridge of the command boat, and as a special envoy, he had absolute command over this interception detachment. But as time passed, his prestige was challenged - even though the interception detachment took turns shouting and intercepting with fire according to his orders, it was impossible to force the airships of Banshima to land, and a weak commander in the steel city-state could not gain the respect of his subordinates.
"Shoot it down!" After Cheng Gang gave a short order, he added: "Only the engine and cockpit are approved to shoot to ensure the safety of the set target!" โ
The combat airships, which had long been on fire, immediately entered the combat position and opened fire quickly, and their well-trained, 50 tracer bullets flew short and deadly towards the target.
One of the engines of the Fandao transport boat soon caught fire, and Cheng Gang immediately ordered a ceasefire to follow the pursuit.
The boat, which had lost one of its engines, was soon forced to make a forced landing, and the two combat airships immediately flew over and circled over the transport airship, at which point they encountered the counterattack fire of the rabbits.
Rabbit people may seem weak, but weak individuals tend to burst out with stronger resistance. Although their physical strength is weak, it does not mean that they cannot operate weapons. To boost their firepower, the Rabbit Man would buy an assault rifle, then replace the heavy barrel and install a bipod to turn the rifle into a light machine gun.
Tonight, they began to return fire with this weapon.
Although the combat airship is not an armored boat, he has a thick iron shell, and the defense against medium-power rifle bullets is still good, but the rabbit man's shooting is very accurate, several searchlights of the combat airship were destroyed, and one crew member was slightly injured, which should be according to the usual training, they will definitely fight back with ten times the firepower, but Cheng Gang forcibly restrained them, and only allowed them to retreat a little to reduce the pressure of the fire strike, and at the same time arranged for the landing craft to put down the marines.
Cheng Gang's tactics were simple and crude: the Marines advanced and annihilated them with the on-board fire of the combat airship and the landing airship once a firing point was discovered, and then the Marines broke into the transport boat cabin and captured the target.
The landing airship landed in the northwest of the transport airship, releasing 27 marines from three detachments, and Cheng Gang also landed to join the marines to command the approach.
I have to admit that the rabbits who came this time were also well-trained fighters, and they waited until the marines were very close before suddenly the lights were turned on, and then they applied the most intense firepower.
The Marines were shot to the end, and those who were not shot lay on the ground, keeping their bodies as close to the ground as possible to avoid the bullets.
The combat airship immediately attacked the exposed fire point with firepower, but due to the maneuver and light tactics adopted by the rabbit man, the firing range of the combat airship was limited, so the suppression effect was not good. On the Marine Corps side, although there were quite a few people who were shot, because they were all wearing heavy body armor, only two or three people were slightly injured, and the overall combat effectiveness was not reduced much.
But after two rounds like this, Cheng Gang couldn't hold his breath, because he found that the rabbit man didn't seem to be trying to win, but to delay time, so he shouted to the landing team under the next tactical suppression: "Don't be like a girl with bound feet anymore, let's go!" โ
After saying that, he stood up first and rushed towards the airship, during which he was hit by a string of small-caliber bullets, which made his body turn half a circle, and at the same time the ribs broke the same sharp pain, but he survived and threw a hand ** at the airship's fire.
The implementation proved that Cheng Gang's tactical choice was correct, in order to stop the Marines who decided to make a desperate assault, the rabbit soldiers had to stay in front of the machine guns and shoot non-stop, but they were soon broken in two by the large-caliber machine guns on the airship, and with the loss of personnel, the fire point could never be resurrected. The Marines were protected by heavy body armor, and the flaws of the rabbit men's weapons were all exposed, and they could not withstand the onslaught of the Marines.
The Marines finally rushed in front of the transport airship, and the two Marines put a broken magnetic ** on the hatch, and with a loud bang, the hatch was blown off. Then the Marines threw three or four more hands into the airship, and then burst into the cabin, and the shots after that were mostly killing.
In a closed environment, the power of the hand ** is enhanced several times, not only the simple lethality, but also the huge explosion and concussion are enough to make people incapacitated.
Cheng Gang killed two Marines and wounded several others, but he took the airship and killed more than a dozen armed rabbits.
However, apart from the bunnyman, he didn't find what he was looking for.
Cheng Gang was disappointed, even desperate, he had never racked his brains so much, made judgments and plans, theoretically speaking, his judgments and plans were very successful, but why did the results always pass by the real goal?
With so many people and resources being mobilized this time, it can't end with such an outcome. This is almost my last chance.
Cheng Gang frowned, seemingly thinking, but his mind was already blank.
Just about thirty hours ago, the secret operation of the steel city-state was finally exposed, and it became a diplomatic incident, although after diplomatic mediation, the two sides still reached a cooperation intention, but the Metropolitan Intelligence Agency intervened in Heaven's case, and out of the protection of sovereignty, the Met ordered the Iron City-State to withdraw all the armed personnel from the outside shooting, and no longer intervene in Heaven's case.
But the people of the Iron City-State have always believed in the rice spoon principle, which means that if you want to eat well, you must hold the rice spoon in your own hands. Losing the initiative, the steel city-state lost face, and it was very insecure.
Although the Metropolis promised to hand over the Heavenly Mutants to the Iron City-State to serve their sentences after the trial. But looking at the posture of the metropolis in handling cases, even the always mysterious intelligence bureau has come out, and it doesn't look like it's handling an ordinary criminal case. Things have developed to this point, even a fool can think of it, whoever has the elixir in hand, how can he obediently hand it over to others?
Therefore, although Cheng Gang and others were withdrawn, they have not given up on the follow-up of the case. It's a simple and crude method, but it's very effective.
Cheng Gang, as the senior undertaker of this case, performed very well, so he was still given a lot of rights, and he proposed to include Ah Jun, Jin Junmei and others in the scope of surveillance, which was also approved.
The right approach often pays off quickly, after all, it's better to eat ready-made food after you than to shave it yourself. Soon, the intelligence officers of the steel city-state analyzed an unexpected result based on the existing information - it turned out that all the suspects were thrown out of disguise, and the real suspect was actually Yang Danli, a doctor who was usually inconspicuous. At this time, Yang Danli had already fled, and it was the rabbit people who looked harmless to humans and animals who answered her.
Cheng Gang was startled when he heard the latter news, and immediately remembered Mei Tu, although he had almost abandoned Mei Rabbit in recent days, but after all, the two had lived sweetly together for several days, and a faint, ominous premonition began to surge in his heart.
I have to admit that he also has feelings for Mei Tu, and he now hopes that Mei Tu will not be involved in this matter, because once the two meet again, it is likely to be a tragic ending.
Despite this, he asked to join the interception team, and his superiors not only approved his request, but also appointed him as the commander of the scene.
He was surprised to have such trust from his superiors, but at the same time he knew that if he failed again this time, there would be no explanation for any reason.
Cheng Gang secretly set off from the embassy and reported to the interception detachment at the rendezvous point at the border.
As soon as he saw the scale of the interception points, he was more sure of his idea - this sortie can only win, and no defeat is allowed.
The interception detachment consisted of four combat airships, carried marines, and the total strength was close to a company, and as far as he knew, the steel city-state had rarely sent regular troops so far away on this scale since its inception.
All four airships belong to the same class, but have been modified according to the mission. The airship that Cheng Gang boarded was a command boat, which, in addition to basic weapons, had a command cabin, had radar equipment, and a strengthened communication system; The other two combat airships, equipped with several machine guns of ยท50, as well as ground*** and guidance**; Finally, there is the landing boat, which, in addition to the basic weapons, has been converted into a crew compartment, which is large enough to accommodate three combat teams of nine people.
In the face of such force, the rabbit task force has no chance of victory, whether in the air or on the ground.
However, although the battle was won, the mission was lost.
"Sir! Sir! A Marine corporal shouted, pulling Cheng Gang back from the chaos.
The corporal reported: "We found a compartment in which people were hiding and still resisting. โ
"That's him!" Cheng Gangxiang was given a stimulant injection.
Cheng Gang trotted to the cabin and saw that there were many bullet holes in the door of the cabin.
The corporal added: "Sir, they wounded one of us again, and we did not fight back forcefully for fear of hurting the target. โ
Cheng Gang nodded and said, "You guys did a good job, leave it to me below." โ
The Marines got out of the way, Cheng Gang walked to the door, cleared his throat, suppressed some excitement, and shouted: "People inside, please tell me your rank, number and requirements, I accept your surrender." โ
After waiting for a second or two, a familiar voice came from Cheng Gang's door: "Is it you?" If it's you, I'll allow you to come in. โ
Mei Rabbit ...... Cheng Gang's heart tightened, and the faint worry that had been faintly turned into a reality.
