Chapter 195 Heavy Weapons Enter the Scene
At this time, no living creatures could be seen in the restricted area, but the atmosphere on the military side was becoming more and more serious.
"Five minutes have passed." Dong Ming glanced at the time and said in a low voice.
Assuming that it was really a tentative attack by the opponent before, then the next thing would be a storm.
Bai Yinghui nodded, he looked at the time and said: "I hope they will wait a little longer, my reinforcements will arrive in a few minutes."
After discovering the abnormality in the restricted area, whether it was Bai Yinghui, Dong Ming or Fang Wei, they all called for reinforcements at the first time.
Yangcheng is the closest, and there are no cars on the road now. If it is running at full speed, the reinforcements will arrive here in 10 minutes at most.
The reason why they haven't arrived yet is mainly because it takes a long time to prepare weapons.
After all, ordinary firearms are not very useful against enemies of level 5 or 6. They need a large number of heavy machine guns and rockets to equip the soldiers.
But even the logistics department doesn't have many of these things. They can only temporarily dismantle the heavy machine guns on the city wall to barely make up the number.
Even though the heavy machine guns on the city wall were detachable when they were first designed, it would take time.
"Then my reinforcements should be able to arrive faster than you." Fang Wei said at this time.
Hearing this, both of them were a little surprised, because the provincial military region should be the farthest from here.
But soon they thought of something.
At this time, a low humming sound came from a distance.
The two immediately opened the observation port of the command vehicle and immediately found that there were hundreds of armed helicopters flying towards them in the distance.
Seeing this scene, many soldiers on the position cheered, and only this kind of heavy weapon could give them enough sense of security.
Soon, hundreds of armed helicopters hovered above the defense line, and then the ropes were lowered, and then one soldier wearing an exoskeleton slid down the rope.
Soon, a full 1,000 elite troops wearing exoskeletons, all composed of evolvers, landed on the defense line.
Seeing those exoskeleton equipment, both Bai Yinghui and Dong Ming showed envy.
Who wouldn't envy this new equipment, but there is no way to envy it. Although this new equipment has begun to be produced, the scale has not yet been established. Only the most elite troops are qualified to equip it.
"Exoskeletons are nothing. Look at the weapons behind them. That is the real killer. It's hard to say about the sixth-level beasts, but it should be able to cause serious injuries to the fifth-level skeleton creatures." Fang Wei said with a smile.
At this time, Bai Yinghui and Dong Ming focused their attention on the equipment of these soldiers.
They did not wear conventional weapons. In addition to the cold weapons hanging around their waists, there was only the 1.5-meter-long gun barrel behind them.
Yes, they can only describe it as a gun barrel.
Because that thing is too thick, the diameter of the muzzle is estimated to be 70 mm.
"What equipment is that?" Dong Ming couldn't help asking.
"The first generation of Destroyer hand cannons weighs 1,500 kilograms and can fire 70mm caliber armor-piercing shells, explosive shells, tungsten steel armor-piercing shells, and depleted uranium armor-piercing shells. The power of each of its shots can reach at least 50% of the power of a main battle tank."
"And compared to main battle tanks, it also has advantages such as fast firing rate and easy mobility."
"Of course, there are also disadvantages, that is, the terrifying recoil, which must be endured by an evolver wearing exoskeleton armor." Fang Wei introduced.
After listening to the introduction, Bai Yinghui and Dong Ming felt that their saliva was about to flow down.
What does this mean?
It means that there are a full 1,000 weakened main battle tanks in the field!
"What is the firing rate of those Destroyer hand cannons?" Bai Yinghui asked.
After all, how much damage a weapon can cause, in addition to power, the attack speed is also crucial.
Hearing this question, Fang Wei slightly raised his lips. He had said before that compared with the main battle tank, the biggest advantage of the Destroyer hand cannon is that it is easy to move and the other is the fast attack speed.
Easy to move, this is easy to understand. After all, no matter how fast the main battle tank is, it is not that fast. Even when adjusting the muzzle to aim at the target, it seems a bit slow.
But the evolvers are completely different with the hand cannon. Even in this kind of dense forest battle, they can go wherever they want. As for adjusting the muzzle and aiming at the enemy, it is even faster.
As long as you are strong enough, you can aim however you want.
So the flexibility of the two is not at the same level at all.
As for the attack speed.
Fang Wei smiled and introduced: "You can see the Destroyer hand cannon. It has a magazine. Although it can only load up to ten bullets, the theoretical firing rate can reach one bullet per second."
Hearing this answer, Bai Yinghui and Dong Ming took a breath and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
You should know that the general main battle tank takes about 6 seconds to load shells, which means that it can only fire about 10 shells per minute.
But this Destroyer hand cannon can theoretically fire 60 bullets per minute!
Even if the time for changing magazines is taken into account, it can still shoot about 50 times per minute, which is much faster than the main battle tank.
If the bullets are not powerful enough, they can be made up with quantity.
If it is not necessary to target the fifth and sixth level creatures, let these 1,000 evolvers fight against 1,000 main battle tanks head-on.
It is estimated that the evolvers can completely defeat the main battle tanks.
"Commander Fang, have these Destroyer hand cannons started mass production? Can we buy them?" Bai Yinghui asked eagerly.
This is definitely a powerful weapon to deal with those mutant creatures!
It may be a bit difficult to fight the fifth and sixth level mutant creatures, but he feels that a single shot can seriously damage the third and fourth level mutant creatures.
"Well, mass production has begun. If you want, we should be able to provide a batch within 10 days, and we will be able to arm various troops on a large scale in a month."
"The main reason is that this thing is relatively simple to make, but the difficulty is that the threshold for use is high. We have even developed the second-generation Destroyer hand cannon, which is loaded with the same 125mm shells as the main battle tanks."
"But unfortunately, it cannot be equipped on a large scale, because it requires at least a second-level evolver to withstand the terrifying recoil."
"Even as long as our evolvers can handle it, the caliber of the next few generations can be larger and larger, and this does not require too much technical content, and can be quickly iterated." Fang Wei even talked about the prospects for the use of the Destroyer hand cannon.
The more Bai Yinghui and Dong Ming listened, the brighter their eyes became.
They realized that this was definitely a smooth road, a perfect combination of weapons and evolution.
Even Ye Feng, who was eavesdropping outside, couldn't help but fall into deep thought at this time.
He also had to admit that the appearance of this Destroyer hand cannon was a big threat to the Dragon King Palace.
Under normal circumstances, one of these fourth-level animals he cultivated could contain a regiment.
But if it was an evolver equipped with this kind of Destroyer hand cannon, any one of them could pose a threat to them. After all, if they were hit, they would probably be seriously injured.
However, Ye Feng thought about it and thought that if he really fought with these elite troops, he would not need to send his contracted animals to fight.
The best way to deal with them should be to dispatch the Zerg army.
Tens of thousands of mutant bumblebees and mutant red fire ants rushed over, and then they would really be using cannons to hit insects.
As long as they were approached by bumblebees and red fire ants, these first-level evolvers would be quickly eliminated.
Thinking of this, Ye Feng's mood suddenly became much better, and now that the enemy was at hand, the military's strength was naturally the stronger the better.
At this time, after the 100 armed helicopters dropped off the 1,000 soldiers, half of them began to return. It was obvious that they continued to transport troops.
This not only made Ye Feng look forward to it, but also wondered how many good things the military could come up with when they got serious.
After the first batch of reinforcements from the provincial military region arrived, the support troops from Yangcheng were about to arrive.
One after another, infantry fighting vehicles, main battle tanks and armored vehicles were driving rapidly along the road.
Ye Feng used his mental power to scan the area and quickly realized that there were a total of 500 infantry fighting vehicles, 300 armored vehicles and 200 main battle tanks.
In fact, it was not just what he saw. As they arrived at the battlefield, batches of evolvers came down from the armored vehicles.
Ye Feng counted them carefully, and Yangcheng had pulled almost all the evolvers over.
There were nearly 3,000 evolvers, of course, including the superpowers.
In addition, nearly 5,000 heavy machine guns, more than 3,000 high-pressure flamethrowers, and 10,000 rocket launchers were transported down from the armored vehicles.
It can be said that the arrival of this batch of reinforcements has once again caused cheers from the soldiers on the defense line.
In fact, the evolvers and the equipment they brought with them are secondary. The most exciting ones are undoubtedly the main battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and those armored vehicles.
Each of these is absolutely a killer on the battlefield.
Needless to say, the main battle tank can easily penetrate a 1000 mm steel plate with armor-piercing bullets, which is absolutely a fatal threat even to the sixth-level beasts.
The second is the infantry fighting vehicle. The vehicle-mounted machine gun on it is not as powerful as the heavy machine gun, and it can definitely pose a fatal threat to the fifth-level skeleton creatures.
Moreover, the vehicle-mounted machine gun has a fast firing rate, and it can cooperate with the main battle tank when necessary. The infantry fighting vehicle can suppress the sixth-level beast with firepower first, and then the main battle tank can be used to kill it.
Even the armored vehicle used to transport troops has 5 heavy machine guns installed on the top. In addition, the firing port on the side of the armored vehicle can also place 5 heavy machine guns.
In this way, each armored vehicle is a mobile firepower point, and any section of the front line that needs it can immediately rush over to provide firepower support.
With these heavy weapons, plus the large number of heavy machine guns, high-pressure flamethrowers and rocket launchers that have been transported, the military's combat power can be doubled directly.
Just when everyone was excited, the alarm suddenly sounded again.
The reconnaissance drone deep underground saw creatures teleporting over after an interval of 10 minutes.
The first to appear were still skeleton creatures, and this time, all of them were flying skeleton creatures. After they came out, they flapped their bone wings and quickly flew into the sky.
It is worth mentioning that the bony wings of these flying skeleton creatures are basically composed of flat and wide bones. The lift generated when flapping is no more than that of normal bird wings. How much smaller.
At this time, the senior officials in front of the screen looked at the skeleton creatures flying into the sky, and quickly thought of the opponent's commander's method to deal with their thermobaric bombs.
These huge skeletal creatures are actually "bone shields". It is obvious that they use their own lives to intercept thermobaric bombs.
As long as they can successfully intercept one or two waves of thermobaric bombardment and allow those sixth-level ferocious beasts to rush into the military defense line, the situation of the war will change.
Seeing this scene, Fang Wei was the first to react. He immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and directly ordered: "Let the armed helicopters form a formation immediately and use air-to-air missiles to shoot them down."
Then he turned to look at Bai Yinghui and asked, "How long will it take for your air defense troops to be sent over?"
Bai Yinghui immediately replied: "The second wave of support will arrive in 15 minutes, but they have already set off. I can ask the air defense troops to come at full speed first. They should arrive within 5 minutes."
The reinforcements sent by Yangcheng City cannot be just these evolvers. The headquarters is just letting the most important ones come first.
The second batch of reinforcements not only included various weapons and equipment, but also a larger number of heavy machine guns and high-pressure flamethrowers. Because the number of weapons dismantled from the defensive city walls exceeded 10,000, the first batch of reinforcements were urgently needed. On the way, I only carried part of it.
In addition, there is a third batch of reinforcements. Of course, rather than reinforcements, they should be more appropriately called logistics troops, because they will be responsible for the subsequent ammunition supply work.
Fang Wei nodded after hearing this, "Okay! Then I will also contact the Provincial Military Region and ask them to send all the fighter formations over. It will probably arrive in about five minutes."
"However, it is not that easy to clear out those skeleton creatures. At least the ground troops must be delayed for more than 10 minutes to effectively weaken the opponent's air power and reduce their probability of intercepting thermobaric bombs."
Bai Yinghui nodded repeatedly after hearing this and quickly gave the order.
As for Dong Ming, who was standing aside, he could only worry at this time. Due to the distance, it would take at least half an hour for his first batch of reinforcements to arrive here.
Just as a few people were making arrangements, the battle quickly reached a fever pitch.
The 50 armed helicopters still left here were the first to move.
They approached the edge of the restricted area, quickly locked onto the skeleton creatures, and then launched air-to-air missiles for bombing.
In addition, the 30mm caliber cannon installed on the nose of the aircraft was also spitting out tongues of flame crazily.
Huge tungsten steel armor-piercing bullets fired at skeletal creatures like these.
The power of the machine gun is not comparable to that of the heavy machine gun. Every tungsten steel armor-piercing bullet can crack the bones of these fifth-level mutant creatures.
Although the scope of the collapse is not large, the problem is that the cannon fires quickly! Bullets fell like rain, causing no less damage than air-to-air missiles.
