1112 、 Attack from behind the enemy lines
Due to the annihilation of the 116 Independent Armoured Brigade and the two brigades of the 32nd Infantry Division, Skynet's frontline had actually been completely cut into two parts.
One part was the remnants of the 32nd Infantry Division and the 29th Infantry Division attacking Xinlanzhou Province. The Gray Coat Army had about 30000 soldiers, while the defending troops in Xinlanzhou Province were only 8,000. The more than 4,000 garbage loaders of the Tomb Guardians, as well as the 1,000 prisoners and slaves captured as meat shields, were moving in their direction.
The other direction was the army of Skynet's Terminators attacking the manufacturing center. The Terminator army was large in number. According to the observation of the Commander's spacecraft, there were more than 40000 Terminators! Most of Tang Yu's robot army was defending in this direction. The main force of the manufacturing center was the more than 5,000 Terminators that had been recovered previously. Even if new robots were continuously being produced to participate in the battle, the huge gap in numbers still made the battle in this direction very dangerous.
Although Skynet had the absolute advantage in numbers, with the total number of troops more than three times that of Tang Yu's, the morale of the Gray Coat Army attacking Xinlanzhou Province was low. The Terminator army attacking the manufacturing center was also in a mess due to the electromagnetic interference. What was even more fatal was that in order to cooperate with the T-9800's actions, Skynet's army had launched a hasty attack before they had finished assembling. Many of their heavy equipment was still behind the frontline!
Under such circumstances, the consequences of the frontline being torn apart would be especially fatal!
…
Zheng Hong and Kang Hao led the New Atlanta Militia and the armored troops assembled from Southampton towards the rear of the Terminator army attacking the manufacturing center. Their army included 3,000 people from the New Atlanta Militia, 2,000 people recruited from the residents who migrated to Southampton, and more than 1,000 robots. However, the robots they were equipped with were mainly G-1 engineering robots.
"This is the New Atlanta Militia. We have arrived at the area three kilometers west of the manufacturing center. Please give further instructions," Zheng Hong turned on the radio and asked.
"This is Chen Fei. You guys head northeast immediately. Ignore the battle in the manufacturing center. The marching route has been sent to your computer. There is a Hunter tank unit advancing there. Eliminate them! "Lieutenant General Chen Fei's voice appeared on the communicator.
"But the manufacturing center doesn't look good? Are you sure you're not going over to help? " Zheng Hong looked through the binoculars. From afar, he could see the exploding flames from the manufacturing center. He could also see the Hunter spacecraft and the Interceptor fighter hovering in the sky.
"You still have a lot to learn about war. The manufacturing center was a war of attrition. There was no need to use human lives to fill the gap. Besides, Tang Yu would soon arrive to assist. You have to move behind the Terminator Legion because most of their heavy equipment is behind the frontlines. Don't let them join the battle! "Chen Fei explained patiently.
"Understood. We'll take action immediately," Zheng Hong said loudly.
"Hurry up. The Commander's spaceplane can only operate for another two hours at most before turning off the interference again and entering evasive mode. You have two hours to complete the battle. After that, retreat immediately. Without the interference of the commander's aircraft, your team will soon be discovered by Skynet! "Chen Fei added.
"Yes!" Zheng Hong answered loudly. He turned off the radio, turned around, and waved his hand. "The marching route has been announced. Head northeast!!"
The main force behind him immediately began to move. Hundreds of armed pickup trucks fanned out in front of the frontlines on both sides. These armed pickup trucks were welded with additional armor. A 20mm electromagnetic cannon produced by the Guardian Group was installed on the roof. In the back compartment, there was also a gunner and two soldiers carrying the Meteor missile.
After receiving support from Tang Yu's era, the Meteor Missile began to be equipped in large quantities in the army under Tang Yu's command. Southampton had also set up several production lines for the Meteor Missile.
The size of the missile, including the launcher, was one size larger than the RPG-7 rocket launcher. The launcher and the missile weighed a total of 20 kilograms. It could attack armored ground targets and could also attack low-altitude flying units. Under the guidance of the Commander's spaceplane, it could accurately hit enemies within a two-kilometer radius. It was immediately sought after by all soldiers and became the star of the battlefield.
Tang Yu's future plan was to mass-produce the Meteor missile and even make it part of the squad's equipment. In other words, every five soldiers would be equipped with a Meteor missile launcher!
Behind these armed pickup trucks, with a roar of engines, ten modified Churchill infantry tanks and four modified Firefly tanks slowly moved forward. These were also Tang Yu's first armored force.
Behind them was the formation of infantry. Now, these soldiers were basically equipped with Poisoned Assault Rifles. The corrosive bullets fired by this assault rifle had a miraculous effect on Terminators, especially the T-600 Terminator. The Type I Assault Rifle had been eliminated. The larger Type II Assault Rifle was not suitable for ordinary soldiers. Therefore, in the world of No Man's Land, the Hyperion Corporation's imitation of the Poisoned Assault Rifle became their standard.
At the back of the formation, there were more than ten huge tanks! These tanks were more than five meters tall. Upon closer inspection, they were, in fact, modified Hunter Tanks! The base of this tank was exactly the same as the Hunter Tank, but the cantilevers on the head and sides of the cannons had been removed. In Tang Yu's words, the Hunter Tank, a five-meter-tall, 200-ton behemoth, was actually armed with two twin-mounted blaster autocannons? This was simply shameless! Using such a tank as their main armored force, Skynet deserved to fail!
Therefore, under his modifications, these tanks were modified from the wreckage of the Hunter Tank and installed two 210-millimeter howitzers on the top of their heads! These two heavy cannons immediately turned it into a terrifying self-propelled artillery. Moreover, the improved cannons also had direct fire capabilities and could fire armor-piercing bullets at heavily-armored targets in Skynet.
This tank was named by Tang Yu as the 'Black Tortoise Self-Propelled Artillery'!
"The target is in front, two kilometers away! Damn it, thirty Hunter Tanks and fifty T-7 Spider Terminators! " Kang Hao took out his computer and looked at the radar signal shared by the commander's aircraft. He exclaimed in a low voice, "Wait a minute, what's that huge radar signal? This thing's radar signal is ten times that of the Hunter Tank! How is that possible! "
"What's going on?" Zheng Hong asked.
"I don't know, the radar shows that there's a huge object! This place is too close to Skynet's hinterland. The commander did not send any optical images. Should we go and take a look? "Kang Hao said.
Zheng Hong nodded and said to the officers behind him, "Everyone, enter combat mode. Black Tortoise Self-Propelled Artillery, enter attack mode and standby! Let's go and take a look first. "
They led more than ten soldiers and sneaked forward. Under the high-powered infrared binoculars, an incomparably huge armored unit came into view.
"Oh my god! What the f * ck is that? Is it a mountain?? " Zheng Hong was shocked. Under the binoculars, the terrifying armored vehicle was more than 20 meters tall and nearly 100 meters long!
The armored vehicle was basically in the shape of a standard trapezoid, with three sets of trapezoid tracks on both sides. Just the load wheels alone were more than two meters in diameter!! Each set of tracks was made up of two overlapping tracks. In other words, in order to support the weight of this huge armored vehicle, there were a total of 12 sets of tracks!
In front of the armored vehicle were two incomparably huge metal wheels full of sawtooth. Without a doubt, when these metal wheels started to move, no matter how strong a steel plate or a wall was, it would be instantly crushed!!
What was even more terrifying was the super huge cannon on top of the armored vehicle!! This huge cannon was divided into two parts. The rear part was the charging device, while the front part was the folded cannon barrel. If the entire huge cannon was extended, its length would be close to 50 meters!!!
"Damn it!! If this thing rushed to the manufacturing center, I can't think of anything that could stop it!! "Zheng Hong's body trembled. He was completely shocked by this armored unit.
"We have to kill it!" Kang Hao said in a low voice.
"What did you say?"
