Chapter VI: Armed Rescue

"Mr. Black! Mr. Black! We're here to save you! ”

Then there was another explosion, a large hole was blown open in the lock, and two soldiers broke down the door, snapped Blake's shackles with pliers, and helped him out of the door.

Along the way, gunfire erupted. Four soldiers stood beside Blake, grenades opened the way, and submachine guns followed. Passing through a long hallway, they took the elevator to the 21st floor, where there was an escape passage that led directly to the ground.

Outside the headquarters building, four tanks were ready.

"They've found Black, fire!"

At the sound of an order, four tanks began to aim. One shell, another shell. The shock wave shattered the building's glass and pierced the thick reinforced concrete walls.

"Activate the Spitfire and move forward!"

Four fiery dragons erupted, ablaze everywhere they went. The guard, who had no time to react, was enveloped in flames and rolled on the ground in pain, reduced to charcoal.

The Celtic Lakeside Guard was stunned, and the defense deployment was scattered, and it was simply powerless to parry.

Four tanks ran over barbed wire, smashed through the fence and ran rampant through the headquarters building, reducing everything to rubble.

"At 6 o'clock, let's meet Black!"

A shell was fired, and a concrete wall collapsed, revealing a new passageway. The four tanks hurriedly turned and rushed towards the passage.

"They're here, carry Blake into the car."

At this time, Blake had fallen into a semi-coma due to a long lack of oxygen, and he couldn't say a complete sentence.

"Director General Black, Director General Black, do you remember me, I'm Colonel Wayne, your old subordinate - give him an oxygen cylinder!"

After inhaling the oxygen, Blake sobered up a little, and he opened his eyes with difficulty, looking at the familiar face in front of him, and his heart was mixed.

"How's Captain Weyland doing?"

"They've taken control of the twenty-second basement floor, and they're now approaching the Commander's office."

"Good! Commander Clay, that damn bastard, he killed us all! - Everybody in the tank! Let's go! ”

"Be careful!"

A rocket struck, hitting the side reactive armor, and bursting shrapnel filled the entire passage.

Another rocket hit, hitting the turret with a muffled sound, but fortunately the armor was thick enough, and the distance was too close, the rocket did not have time to accelerate, and was carried down by the tank.

"At 11 o'clock, knock him out for me!"

The turret turned, the shell hit exactly one of the load-bearing columns, and there was a loud "boom", and cracks instantly crawled all over the walls. The exposed steel bars struggled to pull the broken cement blocks together, rattling and twisting and deforming.

"The Lakeside Guards are starting to fight back, we don't have much time, let's go!"

Captain Weyland also rushed to the ground with his men, carrying the looted bazookas and heavy machine guns, and destroying all those who resisted with a whirlwind. The entire headquarters was under fire, and damaged buildings continued to collapse.

However, in the Commander's office, Commander Clay was not panicked at all. He crossed his legs on his desk and asked his assistant to light a cigar, closed his eyes, puffed out his cheeks, and took a puff with a look of enjoyment. After a long time, he spat out a cloud of mist and said slowly: "It's time to close the net and let Delint attack."

The Delint I had been hiding in the woods for a long time, an elite special forces unit nominally part of the Celtic Lakeside Guard, but under the command of Clay. This unit was formed in the aftermath of the assassination in the Arctic Ocean 10 years ago to help Clay lead the elimination of opposition forces within the G64, committing numerous atrocities and killing people.

"Everyone, tonight is our hunting time, strike!"

As the order was issued, dozens of attack drones flew towards the headquarters building, and it was indisputably a burst of indiscriminate bombardment. Then, the drone unleashed its cannon and killed anyone on sight. After a few shots, more than half of the Welanders were killed and wounded, and they had to retreat into an attic, close the door, and return fire through the window.

"Colonel Wayne, we need support! We won't last long! ”

On Colonel Wayne's side, the situation is not optimistic, and tanks continue to be shot.

The armored units of the Lakeside Guard also began to move closer to this side, and it was not advisable to stay here for long.

"Colonel Wayne, what are we going to do?!"

Inside the tank, everyone looked at Colonel Wayne, eagerly awaiting orders. If this continues, it won't be long before they are wiped out. Colonel Wayne swallowed and was silent for a long time, as if he was making some difficult decision.

"The damaged tanks go to Captain Weeland, and the rest turn on the stealth system and follow me."

So, the four tanks were divided into two teams. The engines of the two tanks roared and drove towards the attic; The two tanks were silent, quietly heading for the road.

On Captain Weland's side, it was a one-sided situation. The powerful firepower suppression of the special forces made them unable to raise their heads at all, and all the windows and portals were the key targets. In just a few minutes, the surface of the attic was pitted and covered with mesh like a sieve.

Delint looked at the enemy's deplorable state with indifference, as if admiring a work of art.

"They're powerless to fight back, get ready for the zipline, we're assaulting — wait, what's that sound about? - Hidden! ”

Two tanks approached, and with a burst of bombardment, blew up the special forces on their backs. Reinforcements are coming! Weeland: They cheered. The firepower of the special forces weakened, and they were finally able to raise their guns and shoot.

They looked up, and countless bullets poured down on the open space outside the attic, the small muzzles of their guns as if they could not breathe the anger into their chests. Now it's the turn of the special forces to raise their heads.

"Fire coverage! Fast! Fire coverage! Delint shouted into the radio.

In the woods, the missile truck was activated, and countless rockets streaked through a parabola in the air, exploding flowers near the attic. It was a veritable carpet bombing, and no one survived anyone who was exposed to the surface. The smoke of gunfire dispersed, obscuring the sky, the stars and the moon were not visible, and everything became hazy.

After the fire was over, there was silence in the headquarters.

"Assault!" Delint ordered again.

More than a dozen ziplines shot into the roof, and dozens of special forces burst to the roof one after another. The rockets opened the way, the heavy machine guns followed, and they navigated the attic unhindered.

"Mr. Black, we didn't disgrace you! Fight with them! ”

"Fight!"

The personnel in the building no longer hid, and raised their daggers and fists one after another, and fought with the special forces. Captain Weyland took the lead and smashed the goggles of a special forces soldier with a heavy punch. Not to be outdone, the others threw themselves at the special forces as if they were dying, and there was chaos in the attic......

There was no one on the road, only the dust that kicked up suggested that there were vehicles passing by.

Blake was fully conscious, he took a deep breath and asked, "What you just discussed, the Combined Fleet, how are they?"

"Sir...... Combined Fleet ...... They...... They were wiped out. ”

"What did you say?!" Blake sat up with a spirit, unable to believe his ears.
