Chapter 78: Expected
People who have not actually touched a firearm tend to have a higher or lower cognitive bias about the power of a firearm.
On the one hand, some people think that the power of bullets is not more than good because they have watched too many low-quality gunfight movies and war movies. Su can easily resist by hiding behind the car door and the door of the house, and if he doesn't hit the head, he can still charge at the enemy alive with three or five bullets.
But in fact, except for a few inferior guns or special circumstances, most firearms are far more powerful than ordinary people can imagine.
In World War II, when the Germans used Mauser rifles to execute their victims, they lined up in a column by the wall, starting with the first shot, and the bullet could penetrate more than five people before it was not lethal.
The well-known AK47 rifle is capable of directly penetrating railway rails from the side.
Even today, small-caliber rifles, which are becoming more and more popular in the world with NATO, are usually extremely lethal at hundreds of meters.
Those large-caliber sniper rifles and machine guns can easily break people from a distance of kilometers!
Therefore, movies like those random car doors, house doors, and even pot lids to block bullets are basically nonsense.
But on the other hand, some also exaggerate the power of guns.
At every turn, the theoretical range of the firearm is regarded as the actual range...... A mouth is what 1,500 meters, two or three thousand meters away to snipe the enemy!
But in fact?
Not to mention the situation where the opponent is hiding behind concealment or cover, it is the natural wind, air visibility, and even temperature that can affect the trajectory of the bullet.
Two kilometers is two kilometers, and this shooting distance is basically the sniper distance that the world's most elite snipers can only complete with the assistance of their off-hand in a good environment.
Even if an ordinary sniper secretly aims without the other party's knowledge, it is very difficult to reach more than 600 meters.
Although the bullet is still effective at more than 1,000 meters in theory, the distance in actual combat is only within the range of 200~400 meters, and it is almost impossible to have a good hit no matter how far it goes.
As for the pistols.
In fact, the accuracy is often extremely worrying at a distance of 50 meters.
Some small-caliber, small-kinetic pistols hit the target at close range, and the opponent still has the ability to resist, and even counter-kills of the gun wielder also occur from time to time.
And now the situation is that in the case of firing down from the roof, the machine gun itself does not rise more than 50 meters from the ground.
At such a close distance, as a large-caliber automatic weapon, the power of the heavy machine gun is simply more than 200%!
Faced with the dense gnolls on the street below, the machine gunner barely even had to aim, and all the settings such as burst fire and burst fire were abandoned.
After adjusting the rate of fire to almost the fastest, he pulled the trigger tightly!
Da Da ......!!!
Countless bullets whistled out of the chamber! A warhead with a speed close to twice the speed of sound can hit its target in less than a twelfth of a second at such a distance!
From top to bottom, it swept through the streets like an indestructible stream of metal!
Countless gnolls were pierced from the top of their heads directly to the soles of their feet at this moment, and their severed limbs and arms were torn apart and flew under the kinetic energy of the bullets of the heavy machine guns, and they were even torn apart again by several bullets that followed in flight!
As for the splatters of unknown meaning such as brains and broken internal organs, they quickly covered most of the streets!
Although in the era of cold weapons.
But the gnolls weren't stupid either, and naturally spotted the attackers on the rooftops of these mega-structures right away. Some of the gnolls suddenly screamed and rushed into the building.
A small number of archers drew their bows and arrows and shot them at the rooftops.
Attacks upwards, although the arrows are not very powerful.
However, these arrows still caused some pressure on the machine gunners, probably because they had been prepared for this for a long time, and these soldiers next to the dragon elephant suddenly took a few wooden-handled grenades from the armed belt, unscrewed the back cover, and threw them down as soon as they pulled the lead!
This military wooden-handled grenade is designed with a fuse to prevent it from being picked up by the enemy and thrown back, usually for only a few seconds.
So, almost immediately after these grenades hit the ground, there was an explosion!
A huge blast echoed through the buildings, and some of the glass that was close to each other broke open at the first moment, and although there were not many fragments of this grenade, the huge shock wave caused by the explosion radius was effective in completely emptying the enemies in the area.
Just a few grenades took a heavy toll on the gnolls below.
"They're coming up soon!" One soldier shouted when he saw the gnolls entering the buildings under the fire of several machine guns.
"Block the door with a machine gun on the squad! They can't rush up! The soldier who seemed to be the squad leader picked up a well-wound single-chain squad machine gun and handed it to the soldier who spoke.
Long Xiang saw that almost all the soldiers on the rooftops of the surrounding buildings were aiming their machine guns or a few semi-automatic rifles at the exit to the roof.
Several guns are aimed at this kind of small doorway that can only pass through two people at a time, which is naturally more than enough. Not to mention the gnolls who are about the same size as humans, even the dragon elephants have no confidence to break through the blockade! You know, this door is too narrow! With no room to dodge at all, even if he is a blood clan, it is really difficult to ensure that he is unscathed!
And what happened next was not surprising.
As a professional combat army, these soldiers skillfully operated machine guns, grenades, squad machine guns, and assault rifles to form a total suppression of the gnolls on the ground.
The bloody slaughter even broke the will of the gnolls several times, and a large number of deserters began to pour towards the mirage rift.
There were even two special werewolves covered in metallic silver that could withstand a small amount of assault rifle fire and were killed by heavy machine gun fire.
Less than forty minutes later, the first six-wheeled armoured personnel carrier crashed into the street with a roar of abandoned cars.
The dragon elephant saw a particularly small gnolls with extremely sharp claws clinging to the roof of the vehicle and constantly trying to attack the armored vehicle.
However, all this is useless.
He didn't even know how thick the steel plates of this armored car really were! How much the multi-layer design in the middle meets the mechanical standards!
Not even his metalized claws could have tore through a steel plate of this magnitude!
As for waiting for the enemy in the car to appear and then sneak attack, it is even more impossible.
As a modern troop carrier, how is it possible that the roof of this car is not equipped with a camera to observe the situation outside the vehicle? In fact, not only the roof of the car, but also the other directions of the armored car are also equipped with cameras! These pictures will be seen by the soldiers in the car for the first time, knowing that there is a werewolf on the roof of the car, how can they open the hatch?
What's more, the firing ports reserved on both sides of the armored vehicle can fully meet their ability to attack while sitting in the car.
