"Did you hear that?" Sun Jiao raised her eyebrows as she asked Jiang Chen.
The snow was heavy. The two were standing next to the Taifu River.
"I think I heard it. Did something explode?" Jiang Chen looked to the east, but the wind and snow blocked his view.
There were two explosions. He couldn't tell which one was louder, but it must have come from a place far away.
"Let's not be distracted." Sun Jiao sighed as she looked at the other side of the river. "The party is about to start."
"That's true." Jiang Chen smiled.
All the combat units were on the frontline.
271 infantrymen, 8 Tigers, and 15 armored vehicles that had been modified from pickup trucks.
The Black Blood Mercenaries already went to the other side of the river and hid on the snowy slope a few kilometers away.
Everything was ready.
Jiang Chen pulled the scarf around his neck as white mist rose from the corner of his mouth.
"Let's begin."
"Roger! My commander. "Sun Jiao playfully blinked as she stepped into the T-3 power armor.
…
Night fell as the wind and snow stopped.
The searchlights in the center of the camp and the four corners flickered at a constant speed as they illuminated the surrounding snowy hills.
Rows of mutated humans carried rifles as they patrolled the camp in a line. They wore steel armor with a fur coat inside to prevent their skin from coming in direct contact with the steel.
There were more than 50 trucks parked on the empty ground of the camp with terrifying gun barrels and cannons. They were covered with white cloth that blended in with the color of the snow.
They didn't take the opponents on the other side of the river seriously.
From their perspective, they only needed one charge to drag those cowards out from the trenches and tear them to pieces with their bare hands.
Shooting was not something they were good at.
Because their fingers were thick, they had to saw off the trigger to make it easier to shoot. This was also why they preferred machine guns because most machine guns were not as short as rifles.
Rough, powerful, and as for carrying heavy loads, they didn't even need to consider it.
The last wave of soldiers arrived at the base. As soon as the ice was strong enough to support their armor, they would blow the horn to charge.
But they were destined to not see that day.
"Did you hear anything?" The mutated human standing at the entrance of the camp tilted his head and looked at his comrade.
Frowning, the mutated human looked around but didn't find the source of the sound.
"Look! What is that?! "
There was a scream as a mutated human pointed at the dark sky.
Something fell from the radiation dust, dragging a faint trail of fire behind it as it gradually accelerated.
However, they had no time to think about what it was.
Pa!
The searchlights in the center of the camp and the four corners shattered, and the light that illuminated the surroundings instantly dimmed.
After a while, several orange flames rose into the sky and suddenly exploded. The glaring white light lit up the camp like it was daytime.
It was a flare!
"Damn it, it's an enemy attack!" With a furious roar, the mutated human standing at the door quickly took out the light machine gun on his back and fired at the snow hill on the other side.
No Mutant would have thought that the humans hiding behind cover would launch a night attack!
Similarly, the Mutants did not panic at the human's night attack. Instead, they were excited.
They were digging their own graves!
But this confidence didn't last long.
Under the cover of the flare, a rocket with a red tail flame descended from the sky!
In the horrified eyes of all the mutated humans, it hit the center of the camp.
Boom!
Flames instantly exploded.
It instantly engulfed the vehicles covered in white cloth, the mutated humans preparing to board the vehicles, and the weapons and supplies buried under the snow!
The inhumane chain of explosions began, playing a simple symphony in the mutated humans' camp.
They ran, screamed, and desperately tried to take off the burning steel armor. They collapsed in exhaustion and accepted the harvest of the flaming reaper.
The steel pieces and snow were blown into the sky and melted into liquid in the heat wave. It was like a firework feast.
It was like hell.
No one would have thought that the "rats" on the other side of the river would have a cruise missile!
Of course, it was not a cruise missile. It was just a rocket loaded with 1000 kilograms of concentrated explosives. One kilogram was 20 crystals. Including the cost of the rocket, this giant firework cost Jiang Chen thirty thousand crystals!
But so what? Compared to the effect it caused, the thirty thousand crystals were worth it.
Looking at the flames on the other side of the river, Jiang Chen pulled out the flare gun and roared at the top of his lungs.
"Attack!"
"Roger!"
The red flare pierced through the night sky.
Eight hums sounded as the five kilogram bomb whizzed into the camp on the other side of the river.
The shockwave from the explosion of the rocket blew away the snow on the river bank. There was no longer any barrier between the two sides. With the advantage of range, the electromagnetic cannon unleashed its firepower.
The infantry stepped out of the trench with their rifles. Under the lead of the six power armors, they launched an assault on the other side of the river.
The Black Blood Mercenaries that first went to the other side of the river already engaged the mutated humans. The orange-yellow tracer bullets lit up the night sky like raindrops.
Because the explosives were mixed with oxidizers such as magnesium powder, the flames in the camp didn't dissipate for a long time.
Under the bright light, the position of the mutated humans was completely exposed. However, it was difficult for the mutated humans to aim their rifles at the targets hidden in the darkness. They could only randomly pull the trigger and respond with firepower.
Looking at the battle video on the tablet, a smile appeared on Jiang Chen's face.
The opponent's air defense was completely destroyed. The sudden explosion not only wiped out half of their combat power, but it also completely disrupted their organization and caused them to fall into chaos.
The mutated humans in armor were strong, but they were only strong in the front armor. In the wilderness, they surrounded the mutated humans. Bullets flew from all directions. The mutated humans that couldn't form a formation could only accept a one-sided massacre.
The riflemen fired rhythmically, pushed forward, and guided the bombardment. In the virtual reality training device, they had practiced this countless times.
The six power armors led by Sun Jiao used their superior mobility to cruise around the mutated humans' territory and split up the mutated human soldiers that were trying to gather.
Looking at the girl's posture on the battlefield … Okay, although she was in a metal box. All in all, looking at her valiant posture and thinking about how shy she was last night, the feeling was indescribably wonderful.
With a blushing face, Jiang Chen coughed and threw all the unhealthy thoughts out of his head.
The war was coming to an end.
The soldiers inside the camp smashed the mutated humans on the verge of death with their rifle butts and took out their daggers to finish them off.
There was no need for captives. Death was the best ending for these beasts.
He put away the tablet and boarded the armored vehicle.
"Cross the river."
"Yes, sir."
As the leader of the base, Jiang Chen more or less realized that he couldn't be in the front line like a warrior. Since the Fishbone base had passed the initial stage of development, it wasn't as short on manpower as before. Therefore, he accepted Sun Jiao's insistence and waited for the end of the war in the back.
The gunshots in the distance gradually became sparse as the armored vehicle crossed the bridge.
The north wind carried a hint of warmth. Jiang Chen sat on the roof of the vehicle and looked at the destroyed mutated human camp from afar, but his mind drifted to the outside of the battlefield.
This should be the majority of the mutated humans' military supplies. Even if there were still two thousand mutated humans in the Seventh Area, they would no longer be able to fight due to the damage they suffered.
It would not be easy to transport this batch of materials from the Northern Alliance Area 1,500 kilometers away. Now that the supplies were all destroyed, Sun Xiaorou, the spy, was also captured by Jiang Chen.
What would the Dusk Church do with their plan thwarted?
Speaking of which, the Defender Alliance didn't make any moves until now, to the point that Jiang Chen almost forgot he had an ally.
What were they plotting?
