20. Bombardment of Caesar (middle)

Cloudburst bombs, also known as thermobaric bombs or fuel-air bombs. As the name suggests, its charge is not an explosive but a high-energy fuel, that is, a cloud burst agent.

The cloudburst bomb was first used during the Vietnam War, and the actual combat destructive power was very amazing. When igniting the explosion, the cloudburst bomb can make full use of the oxygen in the atmosphere in the explosion area, throw the cloudburst agent under certain detonation conditions, mix with the air and explode violently, and rely on the overpressure and temperature field effect generated by the explosion, it can destroy all the organisms and buildings in the target area together. The power of the ultra-light individual cloud burst shell alone can be comparable to the power of a 120 mm grenade. And those heavy cloudburst bombs even have mushroom clouds similar to nuclear weapons!

If it is used on the battlefield of ancient cold weapons in BC, it will be like killing chickens and dogs, completely one-sided.

-- In the courtyard of a villa requisitioned by the Roman Sixth Army as a temporary headquarters in the city of Alexandria, Caesar had just been carried out by the guards when he felt a torrential wave of air coming from behind him, pushing him forward and falling to the mud, his thighs and arms were marked with blood by sharp flint...... But the sharp instincts honed over the battlefield allowed Caesar not to moan from his bleeding wound or look back, but to quickly get up, stagger into the house, and roll over into the cellar......

At the same time, a terrifying wave of air swept across the ground as if it were devastating, centering on the point of the cloudburst bomb, destroying and uprooting all trees, and reducing all the less sturdy buildings to rubble. In places that were once covered by "fire fog". Charted corpses are everywhere! Wherever the explosion occurred, everything around it was reduced to ashes, even the rats in the burrows. He also died of suffocation due to high temperature and lack of oxygen!

Even a dozen streets away, the residents of the city can still feel the turbulent air currents and scorching temperatures! Near the center of the explosion, the Roman soldiers under Caesar's command, who had gathered in the open to fight, were either charred or buried alive in the rubble, and could not even keep their whole bodies.

Comparatively speaking, Pompey's department, which was stationed in the Ptolemaic palace, seems to have been slightly luckier. The ordinary houses in the neighborhood were in the midst of the torrential waves of cloud bombs. Most of them were destroyed by direct flying, crushing the people in the house under the rubble. The buildings of the Egyptian royal palaces were stronger, and the magnificent temples were built with huge stones and rammed earth. It was able to withstand this powerful explosion without a large-scale collapse.

In this way, however, the power of the cloudburst bomb is brought into full play - in such a semi-confined space, the shock wave caused by the explosion is reflected and superimposed between the walls and columns. The instantaneous air pressure generated is much higher than in an open space. The killing effect on the human body is naturally greater.

- In an instant, a fiery shock wave capable of crushing human bones and internal organs wreaked havoc along the corridors under the Greek-style stone pillars and in the semi-open spaces of the palace, burning or shaking to death the Roman soldiers, court servants, and maids hiding therein, not even the cats and dogs.

Even those who hid far away from the explosion point, managed to avoid the flames and shockwave shocks, and were lucky enough to not die for a while. They often find themselves in a terrible purgatory of suffocation in high temperatures - the explosion of a cloudburst bomb will quickly consume every trace of oxygen in the surrounding space. It can form an anoxic area within the area of action, so that people and animals in the target area will die of hypoxic suffocation even if they are not directly burned to death.

So, when these "lucky people" were dying, because they couldn't breathe, most of them had already scratched their throats alive......

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Just as the city was in purgatory, there was a sea of people around the missile launch site in the wilderness outside Alexandria.

-- The steel monsters that suddenly appeared in the wilderness (fire-fighting missile launchers), rows and rows of all kinds of thick black and hard metal cylinders (fire-fighting missiles), orange-red flames rising into the sky, the sharp whistling sound that tore through the air, the violent shaking of the earth, and the mushroom clouds rising in distant cities...... All these unheard-of visions stunned the natives of ancient Egypt.

The mercenaries and servants under the command of Queen Cleopatra took advantage of the situation to boast about the power of the "oracles". Even Queen Cleopatra, who was a cat god and witch in her previous life, put on cat ears and cat tails, and meowed and sold a cute meow in person.

As a result, the refugees from Alexandria, who fled the city to escape the war, soon learned that Queen Cleopatra had recently been blessed by the cat god Buster and the god of death Anubis, and invited a group of powerful "divine messengers" to come down to help......

In order to enhance the propaganda effect, before the missile was launched and bombarded, Wang Qiu and the others had to once again put on exaggerated and colorful cosplay costumes, step through the void from the deep and dark wormhole, and descend into the world. And Sonya, the political commissar who played an important role, had to turn into a werewolf in public again in the face of the scorching heat, and brandished a pitch-black scythe and a golden scepter decorated with a balance on the top, so that the people who were still hesitant completely dispelled a trace of suspicion from Zuihou, and believed from the bottom of their hearts that they were the messengers of the gods, and bowed down in fear.

For Wang Qiu, this kind of toss is nothing, but the problem is ...... weishenme chose cosplay into Inuyasha in the first place?

-- Autumn in Egypt is not cool at all, especially when you wear a thick, heat-absorbing red kimono and a heavy, airtight silver wig under the sun...... Wang Qiu felt that he had simply become the meat dog in the hot pot that was not yet dead.

The chatter of worship and chanting of the citizens of Alexandria around him was like 10,000 flies buzzing in his ears, which made him even more irritable -- when the 18 missiles roared angrily, most of the "onlookers" present were shocked by the sound waves, and their ears were buzzing. Many people with poor psychological quality even stand unsteadily, sitting directly on the ground, and some even have water stains on their robes and skirts...... Next, they were completely impressed by the power of the "divine messengers". Until Wang Qiu activated his ability and teleported the launched missile cart back again, it was still surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside. Everyone bowed to these "steel monsters", thanking them for helping the queen to calm the war, and praying that they would not go berserk and hurt their own devout believers......

What made Wang Qiu feel even worse was the huge cost of the bombardment -- although the 'firefighting missiles' of the North Industries Group were already considered cheap arms, they were still sold for a lot of money. The price of each of the eighteen high-power cloud burst bombs launched this time was 30 million, and a salvo alone knocked out 500 million yuan!

So, after firing the first round of missiles and creating a huge mushroom cloud as a guiding sign, he immediately put away the missile truck and replaced it with a rocket launcher filled with high-explosive warheads - although the rockets are not cheap, each shot is 50,000 ...... But it's much cheaper than missiles.

Then, with the whistling sound of rockets, another terrible meteor shower descended on the remnants of the Romans...... (To be continued.) )
