Chapter 1025: Bombardment!
Rumble~
The dull explosion was like a thunderclap in the rainy season.
When the fire burst out, the earth shook and smoke and dust rose.
The shockwave raged around the surroundings, raising a dark mushroom cloud.
At midnight, it was time for many people to fall asleep.
This sudden explosion woke up many people.
But I didn't have time to get up and go out, and I didn't even have time to think about whether it was an air raid or an artillery bombardment......
Rumble...... Boom......
The sound of the explosion became more and more intense, like a muffled thunderstorm, and the momentum was amazing.
The orange-red explosion of light kept shining.
The earth shook and shook as if it had violently shook.
Such a violent explosion did not look like an air raid at all.
General air strikes, whether it is drones or fighter jets, are all dropping precision-guided missiles or missiles.
The pursuit is high precision, not quantity.
As long as the accuracy is high enough, it will hit 100%.
Coupled with a high-explosive charge of one or two hundred kilograms at every turn, a large piece of explosive charge will be blown up in one shot.
A dozen floors of steel-concrete structure buildings can be blown flat at once.
But now......
The rumbling explosion couldn't be stopped.
Even if it is a heavy bomber, it will not carry too much ammunition and can bomb all the time.
And most importantly......
Nabia, Africa, has been plagued by wars and conflicts.
The local residents of Sancre have long been accustomed to war.
What is a missile bomb and what is a howitzer cannon, after hearing more and seeing more, you can naturally distinguish it.
Like now......
Booming cannons!
An area of several kilometers has been covered by artillery fire.
If you don't bomb it anywhere else, you just blow up the extremely high-end private estate built by the river.
Like the slums, residential areas and so on in other parts of Sancre, not a single shell has been dropped.
Residents were awakened by the sound of gunfire and got up to climb to the rooftops or treetops.
After watching it for a long time, there was neither the tail flame of the missiles whistling from the roar, nor the roar of the fighters, only the constant flashes of fire and the rolling of gunsmoke, not shelling, what else could it be?
It's just that......
For many years, even if there was a conflict between the armed forces on Sankere's side, it was a thunderstorm and a small raindrop, and after ten days and half a month, a few people could not die.
Where is it like now.
Such a high-intensity and continuous shelling, like a plough, blew up the entire manor over and over again.
The locals really enjoyed watching it!
Why?
Because Africa was a colony of European countries many years ago, there were a large number of white people who enclosed their lands in Africa.
By force, they seized fertile land and kept slaves in captivity...... Rely on bloody means to grab huge profits.
Today, the society is relatively civilized, but the ignorant and backward places have not been thoroughly improved.
The estate, called Sriel, still occupies the most fertile land in Sancre.
In the past, coffee trees were planted, cattle and sheep were raised, and local people were hired to do the work.
But later, the manor was no longer dominated by agriculture and animal husbandry, and began to build golf courses, hunting gardens, etc., specifically for some wealthy people from Europe to spend and amuse.
Originally, the best land should be cultivated by local people, not to mention collective prosperity, but also to allow more people to have food and clothing.
But this Sriel manor is a good one, usurping the best land, but it has been transformed into a playground for the rich.
The local people have long hated it, but there are very powerful private armed forces in the manor, and they can only dare to be angry.
Now.
This manor, which is extremely domineering in the local area, I don't know who the big guy has offended.
It was actually washed by artillery fire and bombed over and over again.
It doesn't matter how magnificent and beautiful a European-style villa is, or how high-end a golf course......
The huge manor is like a test range for hundreds of heavy guns.
After the first shell accurately leveled the tallest banquet building, the subsequent ferocious shelling could not stop at all!
Fierce enough! Domineering enough! Relieved enough!
Even in Nabia, Africa, where weapons and ammunition are rampant, an ordinary 155-millimeter high-explosive grenade costs $2,000, and if it is an anti-personnel armor-piercing shell, it costs nearly $4,000.
Such a high-intensity and sustained shelling requires at least 30 large-caliber howitzers to participate in the operation.
After the first calibration hit, a round of rapid fire, that is, six shots per shot, is equivalent to hundreds of thousands of dollars, not counting the wear and tear depreciation of the gun.
After all, for each artillery, the barrel is subjected to the deflagration of the propellant, the high-pressure impact and the wear of the projectile body, which will cause a decrease in life.
If a gun shoots two or three thousand rounds, the barrel must be replaced.
And if it is not for a sudden attack, to achieve the best destruction effect, it is generally not used to shoot rapidly.
Even if it is fired rapidly, the number of shells will be limited, and after too many shots, the artillery will be tired enough to choke, and the barrel will become red and hot.
That's why.
After the ferocious shelling continued for a while, it was noticeable that the number of detonations became more and more sparse, but became more regular.
But with this ferocious shelling, there was really no one.
Looking at the whole of Nabia, it is estimated that there are few armed forces that can make such a big deal.
After almost ten minutes of continuous shelling, the shelling stopped abruptly.
But everyone knows that at this time, we must not take it lightly and think that the shelling has completely stopped.
It is highly likely that this is a re-targeting correction, damage assessment for the first round of shelling, and multi-element calculation of new targets......
A moratorium does not mean no more bombing, it is often for the better complete extinction.
Really.
The shelling stopped for a while, and soon it 'returned'.
The continuous bombardment lasted for half an hour, consuming nearly 10,000 rounds of artillery shells and at least $20 million or 30 million in expenditure.
Therefore.
As soon as the cannon sounded, there were ten thousand taels of gold.
The local people liked to see the continuous fire and the smoke of gunpowder, which was equivalent to 'money burning'.
When the last shell exploded, the feeling of the ground shaking was finally gone.
The rumbling sound disappeared, but with the help of the faint starlight and moonlight, the entire manor could be vaguely seen, which had been completely abandoned.
Not a single building is still standing, and all the flowers and trees are almost invisible.
What high-end holiday villas, luxury clubs, mercenary bodyguards......
Under the ravages of artillery, known as the god of war, it has long ceased to exist.
Other than that.
The explosion of the shells was extremely powerful.
In particular, large-caliber howitzers, with a range of thirty or forty meters, belong to the absolute lethal zone.
Lying down is useless at all, and the powerful impact is enough to tear to shreds.
Even if they were dozens of meters away, the explosion shock waves, debris fragments, and so on that rushed from the explosion were extremely lethal.
Therefore, after being bombarded with high intensity and ferociousness, the entire manor was naturally unrecognizable and completely in disarray.
Buildings, flowers, trees, vehicles, people, livestock, etc...... Gone.
The smoke cleared, and the smoke fell.
Especially after being forcibly demolished, countless excavator loaders were used to destroy the whole land.
The stones were blown to pieces, and there were craters everywhere.
The heavy artillery fire made the soil hot, and it was a living example of 'scorched earth'.
Of course.
Because they were afraid of another round of shelling, the local people did not dare to go forward at all.
No one dared to go to the manor to take a look at the field, let alone pick up the leaks.
In the event that a dumb shell suddenly explodes, wouldn't it be directly whitewashed?
Or suddenly another round of shelling, to supplement the bombardment, completely razed to the ground, wouldn't that be in vain?
So......
After the shelling stopped, Sancre returned to the quiet of the night.
The people were full of anticipation, thinking that another wave of shelling would be better than an eye.
But after waiting for a while, there was no third round.
Some people can't wait.
This manor used to be so rich and luxurious, even if it was bombed indiscriminately, it is estimated that there will be something left, right?
Like those expensive luxury cars and building steel bars, these scraps are also money!
And in the manor, there are underground wine cellars, food warehouses and the like.
The shells didn't necessarily blow through the dirt and underground buildings, and destroyed the cellars and warehouses, right?
What's more, many animals were also raised on the estate in order to allow those rich people to hunt.
Animals killed and injured by the explosion are also meat!
For the impoverished local people, this is a rare source of meat.
The first one, who is not afraid of death, has already rushed over.
With the first, there will soon be a second.
Seeing others picking up waste, I waited for a long time and did not have a third round of shelling.
Poverty and hunger have triumphed over cowardice and cowardice.
The people of Sancre were rushing to the market as if they were rushing to the market, and soon flocked to Sriel Manor from all directions.
Some with flashlights, some with torches, and some on motorcycles in pickup trucks.
Under the darkness of the night.
From a distance, the once rich and luxurious Sriel Manor, now razed to the ground, seems to have become a paradise of countless fireflies, shining brightly and extremely lively.
But in fact, it is thousands of people who are frantically digging for treasure.
Someone found the body with a stump and a broken arm from the rubble, and quickly searched for anything valuable, such as a watch, a mobile phone, a gold tooth, and the like
Someone destroyed the wreckage of the vehicle, and a group of people worked together to quickly disassemble and divide the stolen goods, ready to sell scrap iron.
There are also people who are digging frantically, trying to find out the cellar warehouse.
The cold wind can't stop people's enthusiasm.
And thousands of meters in the air.
An unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, through a wide-angle infrared night vision camera, will 'see all this'.
The scene was broadcast live via a satellite data link to a desert camp less than 30 kilometers from Sriel Manor.
Not far from the camp was an artillery position.
Two battalions of heavy howitzers, thirty-two 155-mm howitzers, formed a small artillery group.
Around the artillery positions, there was also a vigilant force of tanks, infantry fighting vehicles.
Although for the major military powers, those howitzers are already a few decades ago.
But in a chaotic region like Nabia, the god of war is not in vain.
After completing the shelling, the artillerymen were picking up.
Especially those golden bullet casings, it's all money to sell!
The shells were loaded onto the truck, and the howitzer towed and hung behind the truck.
With a dull roar of engines, the artillerymen began to close.
Two kilometers away, in an inconspicuous mountain col.
The sound of the rattling is the money counter working.
A few fat and tall black men were happily counting money and collecting money.
Bundles of cash, totaling 60 million, cannot be counted in full.
The general, who was chatting with the VIPs in the armored command car, had already ordered that he should just take a sample.
Several bundles of banknotes were randomly drawn, and each bundle of 100,000 was genuine.
The general, who got the news, immediately laughed and asked the guards to load the money into the car and prepare to leave.
On the occasion of parting, of course, it is to hook shoulders and talk and laugh.
After chatting for a while, the armored car roared away.
Tang Xiao walked up to Wu Jie and sighed with some regret:
"Why are you engaged in such a battle when you could have easily completed a task with a decapitation operation? Are you afraid that we won't be able to come back after we go?"
Wu Jie raised his eyebrows.
"Go deep behind enemy lines and launch a sneak attack? Are you a mercenary in Sriel Manor, are you all eating soft rice? Instead of letting you take risks, it is better to spend money to get it done, save trouble and worry!"
Tang Xiao smiled:
"If you have money, you can really do whatever you want! Hire two battalions of heavy howitzers and bombard 10,000 shells, what else can't be killed?
"Your alternative method is really simple and rude to the extreme, no wonder others say that you are the king of the pit king, and you don't play cards according to the routine at all!"
Wu Jie snorted lightly, extinguished the cigarette butt, and opened the door to get into the car.
Problems that can be solved with money are not problems!
Let people risk being found and surrounded by counterattacks, and go and kill the star fruit gang?
Why bother?
Find the right position, bomb 10,000 cannons, and there will be no one who can't be killed.
What's more, didn't you bring 200 million cash with you this time?
Since you don't go to the nuclear warhead auction and don't have to give it to the Xu family in the capital, why don't you spend it?
Money is money when it's spent, otherwise it's just a string of numbers and a bunch of waste paper.
And this bombing, coupled with the killing of Suleg and the two on the cruise ship, is a knock on the mountain and a tiger.
Wu Jie wants to see what other tricks the Rothdell Foundation has......
