Chapter 180: Chariot Duel
Shepard also heard the sound of heavy fire, and he poked his head out of the turret with steel plates and canopies, and immediately saw two or three lines of fire exposed to the night vision goggles, and he immediately retracted into the car with bright light.
After taking off the night vision goggles, he popped his head out again, which was a little better.
"Cameron!"
"Yes, head, what's wrong?"
The driver of the armored car, a strong man who was 1.8 meters tall and had a full face, more like a gangster thug, but was actually a veteran driver of the National Guard, poked his head out of the cockpit of the front of the armored car and responded.
"Can you hear what the other person is?"
"It's not like a tank, it's unlikely to be an IFV, I guess it's a wheeled armored vehicle!"
"Wheeled armored vehicles, let's meet them!"
Shepard looked at the machine gun's chain and confirmed that it was an armor-piercing bullet, and immediately became more confident.
"But, head, our mission is to suppress fire!"
"It's us who are being suppressed now, drive quickly, let's go around the third runway!"
"But wouldn't that be too risky?"
Sitting in the passenger seat, Plommri tries to make Shepard change his mind, after all, they are out of the cover of the infantry, and it would not be good if something went wrong!
"No!"
Shepard has always rarely participated in anything related to combat, but he is not the kind of reckless man who doesn't care about anything, he carefully observed the direction of fire of the opponent's armored vehicles, the opponent's target is the hangar on the south side of the airport, so he plans to go around in a circle as well, from the north side, there is a terrain difference there, if the armored car drives off the runway, the other party will not be able to see it at all!
Shepard's calm analysis quickly convinced the two people in the car, and then the driver, Cameron, started the armored car, made a flexible U-turn, and drove to the northernmost side of the airport.
Although the buildings here were not as dense as on the east side, they still provided good cover for the armored vehicles, and Shepard informed Hannibal of his plan, who immediately understood that the counterattacking troops would hold the front line of the hangar, and he also had the suppressed recoilless gun squad shift their positions to continue firing in order to attract the attention of the armored vehicles.
And Shepard continued to show a small head in the turret position, observing the battle situation thousands of kilometers away, not only him, but also the driver and co-pilot also showed their heads, because they couldn't turn on the lights, so the two could only wear night vision devices and barely drive the armored car forward in the dark.
Fortunately, the road conditions in the base were good, so the 0 armored car did not hinder in the slightest, and it took only a few minutes to drive to the northeast side of the airfield.
Then, Shepard saw his target, a large black shadow stayed at the outermost position of the airport runway, and then dense firelight erupted from the position of the black shadow, and in the interval between the black shadows, Shepard also saw two BRD armored vehicles in front of the black shadow, also firing at the hangar.
This is a wheeled light armored reconnaissance vehicle equipped by the Soviet Union, and the weapon is generally a 14.5 mm large-caliber heavy machine gun, and there are also models loaded with missiles, but Shepard did not see the missiles firing or hear movement, so he assumed that these things were all machine gun models.
After seeing the target, the 0 armored car immediately turned and drove along the edge of the ring road on the outermost side of the runway, and as the distance continued to close, Shepard could see the exact location of the armored vehicles.
With a distance of more than 300 meters between the two sides, Shepard asked Cameron to stop, and the latter immediately stepped on the brakes, and then, without waiting for the car to stop, Shepard pulled the trigger and fired at the rear half of the BRD's hull, which is the power compartment of the armored car, only protected by a steel plate behind 7 mm, and the heavy machine gun loaded with armor-piercing shells can easily penetrate the armor.
The twin machine guns roared and rained down on the hull, and Shepard could see the closest car to him being splashed with fire, which was caused by the collision of the warhead and the armor, and after tilting almost a hundred rounds, Shepard stopped firing and turned to the second BRD.
At the time of the attack on the first BRD reconnaissance vehicle, the security personnel in the vicinity of the reconnaissance vehicle were transported
Shepard's location was discovered, but they found it too late, and the second armored vehicle only had time to move when the rain of bullets from 0 tilted again.
The attacked driver drove the armored car forward with great skill, and dodged the armored car moments before it was torn apart by the rain of armor-piercing bullets, but even though the driver reacted quickly, the unlucky gunner in the turret was still shot in the back and died in his position.
And the first BRD inspection car washed by the rain of bullets at this moment came out of billowing smoke, because the attack was too sudden, the members of the car did not have time to react, when the warhead penetrated the armor and flew in the power compartment, it also repeatedly jumped sideways in the car, hitting the members inside repeatedly, and the seriously injured driver only had time to climb out of the driver's seat, and then, the armored car with billowing smoke began to spew flames, and then, the flames quickly spread between the hulls, and at the same time as the second car drove off the runway, the first car was also engulfed in flames, Begin to burn. Z.br>
And at this time, Shepard shifted the muzzle of the gun and prepared to attack the huge black shadow, because he didn't see what it was, so Shepard preconceived judgment that it was a self-propelled anti-aircraft cannon, and it was unrealistic to expect 0 to fight that kind of thing, so he gave priority to the reconnaissance vehicle that was easy to fight.
But the shadow moved faster, and when Shepard turned around to fire, the cannonballs fired from the direction of the shadow flew over.
"Cameron!"
Shepard jerked his head back and let out a loud shout.
Then Cameron drove the armored car directly out, dodging the next few shells, Shepard heard the hull armor being clanged, he locked his head and prepared to fire indiscriminately, but found that the machine gun was jammed, in a hurry, he poked his head out again, used the improvised sight on the turret to take a rough aim, and then fired six rockets hanging outside the turret in one breath.
Several explosions followed, but Shepard didn't have time to observe the situation, he hid tightly in the car like an ostrich, and then waited with his eyes closed.
It wasn't until a few minutes later that Cameron's voice sounded like a collapse.
"Head, we're running back!"
At this time, Shepard shivered and spread his body, trying to get out of the car, but found that he had no strength at all, so he could only let a few P's drag him out.
"It's so exciting!"
After getting out of the car, Shepard saw dense shrapnel stuck in the back of the armored car, and after he took a breath, he tilted his head directly and fainted.
