Chapter 214 Surrounded
Does the strength of combat effectiveness depend on firepower, tactics, or information?
This question has never had a real answer in the long history of war. After all, every answer will be falsified by many real war examples.

No one dares to insist that the answer is correct. In a real war, no one will rely solely on a set of theories to command a battle.

But at least, today, Chen Jian proved something to Huadu's huge army.

That is, when these three elements are combined in an orderly and appropriate manner, even if each element is "not strong enough", the combat effectiveness demonstrated by their combination is terrifyingly powerful.

After making sure that he had fallen into Huadu's trap, was suppressed by the enemy's artillery fire and could not escape immediately, Chen Jian immediately gave up his reckless plan.

Through the cellular network base stations that had already been deployed, he quickly took over the command of the reserve team with the assistance of Zhan Skull.

Then, half a minute later, the enemy artillery position was locked.

This time, those Huadu people were very smart.

They did not deploy all the artillery positions in one place, but instead dispersed them in several different areas around Huadu City.

These positions guarded Huadu City like satellites. Even with the firepower of Chen Jian's team, it was impossible to completely cover them in one artillery attack.

Even the enemy's farthest artillery position was placed directly on the reverse slope, out of the attack range of the 107mm fire.

But this is not a hindrance.

What Chen Jian needs to do is very simple.

Just hit them one by one.

Amid the continuous explosions, Chen Jian calmly gave the order:

"One squad, one group, responsible for the deployment of 107mm guns. Three 3mm guns will fire in unison. Target: enemy artillery position No. 107."

"The specific coordinates have been sent, receive the coordinates, and give me feedback after the parameters are set!"

"Huang Meng received it! The artillery parameters have been set! Waiting for the order to fire!"

"So fast?"

Chen Jian asked in astonishment:

“Who’s driving the tank?”

"Report to the captain, Fuxi is on!"

"Expected to arrive at the pick-up location in 35 minutes!"

"understand!"

Chen Jian carefully observed the latest battle situation displayed on the smart eyepiece, while the battle skull system was constantly marking the locations of high-risk targets.

The time is right to open fire.

"Fire! 9 rounds rapid fire!"

Chen Jian immediately gave the order, and almost at the same time, three 107mm guns at the reserve unit opened fire simultaneously. A total of 27 rockets rose into the air, drew a dazzling arc, and fell straight towards the enemy's No. artillery formation.

"boom!"

"Boom boom boom——"

A violent explosion sounded, and almost in an instant, the No. 1 artillery array deployed in Huadu was destroyed.

All the artillery pieces were silenced, and the artillerymen who had not been completely destroyed fled madly as if they had lost their minds.

Chen Jian didn't even bother to check on the situation of Target No. 1, because he knew that even though Huadu's army was much stronger than the Mechanicus, and they could even conduct simple indirect artillery fire at certain times, it was absolutely impossible for them to quickly organize a new artillery fire after their positions were destroyed and their originally set parameters were disrupted.

To destroy means to destroy; this is the iron rule of modern artillery warfare.

His sight had already turned to the next position, but at this moment, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind.

air defense.

The next second, the War Skull System also popped up the latest prompt.

"The enemy may have air defenses, and we need to move forward quickly to counter them."

"Mengshi and 30A go forward to counterattack. Huang Meng leads the team to move and drive away!"

"Roger that!"

Huang Meng responded quickly and the rocket launcher was quickly loaded onto the vehicle. At the same time, more than a dozen unmanned combat robots including the Vanguard, Xingtian, and Iron Wolf also launched an assault from a location 3 kilometers away from Huadu.

From this moment on, the unmanned combat cluster will operate separately from the manned combat units.

Those cold machines would use electricity and metal as bait to provide cover for the more important long-range support firepower.

"Activate the Arm Shield-2 close defense system!"

"30A, activate the high-energy laser anti-missile system to intercept the enemy's air defense firepower!"

"The drones increased their altitude and dispersed their positions to avoid saturation strikes."

"Battle Skull, pay attention to the battle situation and take full control of the close defense system. No matter what flies up, shoot it down!"

"Understood. I will execute the order."

The cold reminder sound of the battle skull was heard again, and at this moment, several unusual flames suddenly appeared under the camera of the drone.

rocket missile!
Chen Jian's heart tightened, but before he could get nervous, the sound of close-in defense gun fire suddenly rang out not far away, like tearing cloth.

"Buzz buzz buzz buzz--"

The gun barrel rotated, flames lit up, and hundreds of bullets poured out within 3 seconds, forming a dense fire net.

The fire net enveloped the flying target in the air, and in just a moment, all the rockets that had not yet approached the drone were shot down.

Immediately afterwards, the micro laser anti-missile system on 30A was turned on.

In corners that were out of reach of the fire network, the guidance modules of several miniature air defense missiles and cruise missiles launched from the ground were instantly burned out. After losing their targets, they either exploded in the air or fell directly to the ground.

Looking at this slightly "thrilling" scene, Chen Jian couldn't help but curse.

"Damn, these Huadu people really have missiles!"

"Quancheng is indeed a Quancheng. There are so many good things in the 008 fortifications!"

"keep going!"

"Clear ground combat targets."

"The 107 rocket artillery unit moves to the north and organizes suppressive bombardment on the enemy's Second Artillery Corps positions!"

"Roger that!"

After receiving the reply, Chen Jian waited quietly in the tunnel, and a moment later, when the 107 fire accurately exploded in the enemy's artillery formation, the artillery fire falling on the palace suddenly became sparse.

It's time to rush out.

Chen Jian grabbed the grenade launcher and gave the order:

"Everyone follow me out!"

"Quickly disperse, get out of the enemy's artillery range, charge down along the main passage, enter Huadu City, and reunite with 30A!"

"understand!"

Everyone recovered quickly. Chen Jian stepped out of the cave in one step, not even looking at the bullet holes and the still burning flames, and rushed straight to the downhill road connecting the palace and Huadu City.

And there, an elite combat force consisting of hundreds of Huadu soldiers had already formed a battle formation.

A large number of heavy weapons were deployed, and machine guns, rocket launchers, and even recoilless guns were pointed in the direction of the palace.

On Chen Jian's side, there are only 6 people.

Generally speaking, under no circumstances would it be possible for six light infantrymen to fight against such a powerful firepower position.

But that's just the general case.

Before Chen Jian was exposed to the enemy's shooting range, Nezha's intelligent fire control system had already locked the positions of all high-risk targets with the help of the war skull.

Then, the weapons rack unfolded.

Two Nezha exoskeletons, 12 weapon racks, and 12 fire points.

The moment it appeared, in less than 0.1 seconds, the intelligent fire control system operated all the mounts to open fire.

At the same time, Chen Jian had already used the "bolt gun" in his hand to lock onto the heavy machine gun position that posed the greatest threat. "Bang!"

"boom!"

"Boom boom boom!"

Thousands of arrows were fired.

Even though there were only two of them, they displayed unparalleled momentum.

The enemy had no time to react before all the heavy firepower points had been cleared!
So, what is more important than Ganla?
It's preview.

Chen Jian turned the muzzle of the grenade launcher, ran to a low shelter, and began to call out the names of the remaining nearly 100 infantrymen one by one.

At the same time, the Holy Blood Warriors, who had long been accustomed to fighting with hot weapons, also fully utilized their advantages.

Jump, run, pause, and shoot.

Or, choose a suitable cover, use terrifying force to press down the 301 heavy machine gun in your hand, and tear all the ridiculous cover of the enemy into pieces.

In an instant, the enemy's formation collapsed as quickly as if it was washed away by a flood.

And when their OODA is interrupted and their chain of command is completely broken, the outcome of a battle has nothing to do with the number of people.

"Surround them!"

Chen Jian ordered loudly:
"Destroy as many enemy forces as possible and don't let them disperse!"

"understand!"

This order is so exaggerated that it is almost unbelievable.

Just 6 people surrounded nearly a hundred people?
If it were in the past, Ji Xing would definitely scold her as "wishful thinking". After all, even when facing civilians, as long as the civilians were armed with hot weapons, she would not rush forward and risk her life.

But now, facing the well-equipped elite troops of Huadu, she did not hesitate at all.

Because she knew that the enemy was truly surrounded.

They had no ability to resist at all. From the moment their team stepped onto the battlefield, the enemy's life had already entered the countdown.

They will not have the chance to retreat, nor will they have time to regret!

Bullets were fired at the enemy like a rainstorm, and Ji Xing suddenly found that he seemed to be gradually adapting to this rhythm.

After throwing a grenade, he changed his position with the cover of the explosion, then fired a lot of shots, and then threw another grenade.

Each of her attacks can cause real damage, while the enemy's counterattack seems weak, even dull and slow.

She was getting faster and faster, and the enemy was getting slower and slower.

When she replaced the magazine, raised her gun and looked around blankly, she realized that there was no one standing around.

At this moment, Chen Jian's command sounded in her ears.

"Continue to advance down the mountain and enter Huadu City."

"The tanks are coming. We need to merge with the unmanned combat cluster and cover the tanks to clear key targets!"

"understand!"

Ji Xing followed closely behind Chen Jian, consciously slowing down his pace.

Now, she truly understands the meaning of "tactical coordination".

And when a newcomer in the team "enlightens" on the battlefield, the combat effectiveness of the team quickly rises to a higher level.

Like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, a team of six, or to be exact, five people, rushed into Huadu City.

No enemy posed a real threat to them, only those hiding in the buildings slowed them down a little.

But next second.

"boom!"

A shell went straight through the building in front of us from a distance. Accompanied by a huge explosion, the earth and stone structure of the building collapsed.

The tanks have arrived!

"Turn!"

Chen Jian shouted and ordered:
"Release electromagnetic suppression, invade the enemy's communication channel, and prepare to locate the enemy headquarters!"

"Received, release electromagnetic suppression. Enemy radio signals detected, decrypting."

After receiving the response from Zhanluan, Chen Jian no longer paid attention to this task which was destined to take some time. Instead, he led his team to quickly penetrate through the core area of Huadu City and rushed to the fourth artillery position which was beyond the reach of rockets.

The residents in the city had already been frightened out of their wits by the horrific battle scene. Even on the so-called "carnival night", those naked people finally regained their sanity.

They hid in houses and underground. Occasionally, some brave or simply high residents waved their rifles to try to stop the squad, but they were immediately crushed by the steel body of the tank.

When they appeared in front of the artillery position like gods descending from the sky, the enemy there was completely stunned.

They simply forgot to resist.

The so-called battle has turned into a one-sided massacre.

And just when the massacre was over, the so-called "Queen" of Huadu finally made her first mistake.

Perhaps she really didn't realize what the sudden resumption of communication meant.

Or maybe she had already attributed the failure of the Flower City battle entirely to the interruption of communications, so after making sure she could reconnect with her soldiers, she couldn't wait to issue a series of orders.

And when the radio waves were transmitted in the air, her position was instantly exposed.

"The enemy's command post location has been exposed and the target has been marked."

Chen Jian looked into the smart eyepiece and saw a small red dot lighting up in the distance on the north side of Huadu City.

The distance is 15 kilometers.

You hid far enough!
So the guy who escaped from the palace on a jetpack was just a stand-in?

This time, I will never let you run away again.

Looking at the two 152mm howitzers in front of him, a hint of hesitation flashed in Chen Jian's eyes.

Explode or not?
If it explodes, the queen and all the information she carries may be destroyed.

But if the explosion didn't happen, she would have a chance to escape again.

After all, he had already seen her cunning.

Do you want information or her life?

This was not an easy choice, but Chen Jian only hesitated for a second.

"Li Shileijie, adjust the gun position!"

"Parameters solved, aim at the enemy headquarters, and fire!"

"Roger that!"

The two men stepped forward immediately, while Chen Jian commanded the unmanned combat unit to establish a defense line near the artillery position, and at the same time ordered the 107 fire support team behind to quickly detour and leave the battlefield.

They have already completed their mission, so there is no need to risk coming over to join them.

Two minutes later, while the battle in Huadu City was still in full swing, two 152mm howitzers spewed out flames at the same time.

The ground shook and the shells flew out of the gun.

Next came the second shot, the third party.

Within a minute, even though they were short-handed, the two guns still fired a full six shells at their targets.

Where the shells landed, the crude but seemingly solid building had already collapsed into ruins.

Chen Jian didn't believe that anyone could survive such a bombardment.

Next, it’s time to clean up the battlefield!
