Chapter 41 Infantry Coordination

"Listen up, you are surrounded! Surrender now!"

The officer of the palace garrison shouted, and immediately soldiers in military uniforms, holding ordnance weapons, took up positions and pointed their guns at them, creating an atmosphere of tension.

The garrison officer frowned; the other driver clearly didn't want to surrender...

"Fire!"

"Huh?" The officer turned sharply to look at the intelligence officer. He had felt from the beginning that something was wrong with the order; how could the two sides have gone from friendly talks to armed conflict in the blink of an eye...

"Fire! These guys are eyeing the kingdom, just like the Rebonian Empire; they are enemies!"

Seeing that the officer was still hesitant, the intelligence officer took out an order bearing the Queen's seal and emphasized again: "Those on the other side of the sea are not friends, but enemies!"

After confirming that there was no problem with the seal, the officer finally made up his mind.

"A deterrent shelling!"

Thirty seconds later, the turret opened fire.

Boom!Boom!

The projectiles fired by the orbment cannon flew toward the vicinity of the Dayu.

"Commander! The enemy has opened fire!"

"Counterattack!"

After detecting the flashes of the turret firing, the AI ​​of XT-01 lifted the attack restrictions.

The HJ-12 rocket engine ignited, launching towards several Kingdom garrison vehicles. The advanced anti-tank missile, upon approaching the Kingdom vehicles, suddenly ascended and then plunged down...

boom!

The violent explosion engulfed the kingdom's chariots, blasting the entire fortress into the air, and sending soldiers around the chariots flying.

Shrapnel scattered in all directions, almost instantly wiping out the surrounding soldiers, and the black smoke from the explosion shot into the sky!

War is not a fairy tale; it comes at a price of blood!

XT-01 enters autonomous combat mode, its electro-optical sensors scanning the battlefield and assigning all enemies according to their threat level.

After firing two more HJ-12 anti-tank missiles to destroy all the most threatening tanks, the machine guns were turned to sweep the Kingdom's garrison behind their bunkers.

Da da da!

The XT-01's three-barreled 12.7mm machine gun unleashed long whips of fire that lashed out at the soldiers' bunkers, which were made of brick and stone and were no match for the heavy machine gun's barrage.

Soon, the unfortunate man behind the cover was struck by a tumbling 12.7mm bullet, his body exploded, and blood splattered everywhere... From a distance, all that could be seen were puffs of blood mist erupting from behind the cover, and the soldier lying limply on the ground.

The garrison's orbal guns kept hitting XT-01, making clanging sounds. XT-01 did not use ordinary armor, but a new type of armor steel infiltrated with carbon nanotubes. The orbal gun bullets were helpless against XT-01's armor.

Upon reaching the XT-01 on the side of the Dayu ship, the two-foot control device suddenly slammed into the ground, propelling the ship high into the air and crashing onto the dock with a thud, shattering the marble tiles on the ground.

As XT-01 advanced, it used 12.7mm machine guns to suppress enemy fire. Any soldiers that the IFF could not identify were considered enemies!

"on!"

After the dock was secured, the sailors quickly rushed down the gangway of the Dayu. Using the traditional three-man formation, they covered each other, occupied the bunkers, and suppressed the space of the Kingdom's garrison, intending to drive them out of the port.

If we encounter a tough opponent, we will not hesitate to fire a rocket without hesitation, and throw the empty launch tube to the ground to reduce the load.

There's nothing a single 08 rocket can't solve; if there is... then just fire two more!

As this was the first time China had cooperated with drones in combat, although it only had one bipedal mech, China quickly adopted the tactics of combined arms warfare.

The XT-01 draws fire, suppressing the kingdom's garrison and providing cover for the rabbit; meanwhile, the infantry eliminates targets that threaten the XT-01.

One by one, soldiers of the capital's garrison were hit by assault rifles. The lethality of modern rifle bullets is incomparable to that of World War II weapons. The cavity effect generated when hit instantly renders them incapacitated.

One eye on the front, one hole on the back!

That's how the battlefield is; there's no mercy, no good or evil. Only after eliminating all threatening targets can you talk about anything else.

"Mom...I don't want to die..."

A soldier shot in the leg looked at his gaping thigh, crying out his mother's name, and soon went into shock due to excessive blood loss.

For some soldiers hit by 12.7mm machine gun fire, leaving with an intact body was a luxury.

In less than ten minutes, the guards in the port were forced out of the defensive zone, and they immediately began to construct defensive fortifications in preparation for a counterattack by the kingdom's garrison.

"Commander, the port is now under our control..."

Zhou Mingrui and Shi Qiang exchanged a glance and nodded. They walked out of the Dayu ship. They needed a relatively open space to bring over the heavy weapons.

Protected by a squad of soldiers, Zhou Mingrui, wearing a bulletproof vest, jogged up the gangway to the dock.

The air was thick with the smell of gunpowder, and the kingdom's chariots burned silently, making crackling sounds.

Limbs and torsos were everywhere, and dead kingdom soldiers lay sprawled on the ground. Some soldiers who were not quite dead yet let out mournful cries. The intense visual impact made Zhou Mingrui's heart sink.

"Medic! Medic! Here..."

At the sailors' shouts, those wearing Red Cross armbands...

Out of humanitarian concern, medics are trying to save the kingdom's soldiers who are still alive.

"What's wrong, feeling a little out of sorts?" Shi Qiang looked at Zhou Mingrui and said softly.

"Yes, seeing it on TV is never as breathtaking as being there in person..."

The war on television seems so distant, so far removed from our country, because someone is standing in our way.

After finding a safe position, the sailor quickly turned to face outwards.

Snapped!

Zhou Mingrui snapped his fingers, and the portal slowly opened in front of him. Zhou Ming and Shi Qiang entered the portal.

.........................

The enormous explosion could be heard even inside the kingdom... The commoners, who were celebrating the Queen's birthday, stopped what they were doing and stared blankly in the direction of the port, where a series of explosions then echoed.

"what happened?"

"Daddy, is it the Rebonian Empire that's attacking?" the little girl asked, tugging at her father's clothes.

"Don't ask anymore, come home with me!" With that, the father picked up his child and ran towards home.

It was as if a switch had been flipped; all the celebrating civilians grabbed their loved ones and ran home, leaving behind only a field of flowers trampled underfoot by boots...

Royal Palace Banquet Hall.

Queen Estelle looked at the black smoke at the harbor, and could vaguely hear the sounds of gunfire and the cries of civilians. She said painfully, "Captain Charlie, is this what you wanted?"

Chapter 42 Mountain Cat Assault Vehicle Version 2.0

The moment I passed through the portal, all the noise vanished, as if I had instantly returned home from the Middle East, feeling an overwhelming sense of security.

"Something's happened over there..."

After Shi Qiang quickly explained the situation on the other side to the handover personnel, the corresponding emergency plan was activated.

However, they were having some trouble deciding how many troops to deploy. After signaling Zhou Mingrui to wait a moment, the personnel handing over the duties turned and hurried away.

"boss?!"

A surprised voice came from behind. Zhou Mingrui turned around and saw a young man with a strong hairstyle walking quickly towards him. Shi Qiang looked him up and down, and after confirming that there was no problem, he remained in a wooden posture.

"Boss, I didn't expect to see you here. Come on, let me show you something good!" After saying that, he pulled Zhou Mingrui to the side.

"Something good?" Zhou Mingrui was completely confused.

"Yes, yes, it's a great deal!"

Fifteen minutes later, Zhou Mingrui stared in disbelief at a seven-meter-tall humanoid mecha that looked exactly like a money-grabbing beast. They actually made it?!

"How about it, boss! Your money wasn't wasted, was it? It's a technology demonstrator, still unnamed. The joint technology was provided by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the control OS was written by Dajiang Military Industry... It integrates the most advanced technologies currently available!"

As the young powerhouse introduced the situation, he said with a hint of disdain:

"Boss! Forgive my bluntness, but even if this thing were used as a human crane, people would complain that it wasn't heavy enough. It's completely useless. With such a large impact surface... it would just be a target on the battlefield."

"Of course I know, I'm just building one for fun..."

Zhou Mingrui wasn't sure if it was any good or not, but building one would be very useful. It could be used for technical verification and integration of the overall technology, and the technology on it could also be used in other equipment.

Large mechs have appeared; how far away are individual powered armor suits?

"Can this armor break?" A unicorn that can't break its armor is soulless!

The young, powerful man's expression froze instantly, looking like a programmer being told by a product manager that his phone case could change color: You're dreaming!

"Of course not! Tsk... Money can buy you anything!"

The young powerhouse clicked his tongue, but he still liked bosses like Zhou Mingrui who only cared about spending money. He would give a goal and then throw money at it... He didn't care about the process at all. That's the kind of boss he liked.

"Boss, should we take it over to try it out? Just consider it data collection."

"Hmm..." Zhou Mingrui stroked his chin, frowned, and asked, "...Is this thing easy to drive?"

"Of course, take it. You can leave once you understand this!"

Zhou Mingrui stared blankly at the driver's manual, which was thicker than an encyclopedia, and gave up on the idea of ​​driving it himself... This money-grabbing monster really is a big toy; even finding a driver is a problem.

If you're capable of flying this thing, why don't you learn to fly a plane instead...? Once you learn to fly this thing, you're basically done with it.

With so much research funding, what other perks are there?

"Of course, boss!" The young powerhouse rubbed his hands together excitedly, as if a technician who had suffered years of frustration had finally proven his worth.

Next to where the mechs were stored, Zhou Mingrui finally saw a piece of equipment that was even more valuable than the equipment itself.

"Project 666, XT-01 derivative model, Type 02..."

Unlike the XT-01 bipedal walking mech, this thing is a combination of a tracked infantry fighting vehicle and an AI weapon station. As an unmanned autonomous weapon, it eliminates the need for a driver and can be equipped with more ammunition and protective armor.

Adhering to the tradition of insufficient firepower, it is equipped with a 20mm Vulcan cannon plus 4 HJ-10 anti-tank missiles, and there is also a small anti-infantry weapon station on the turret.

Active interception system... anti-personnel grenade launcher... reactive armor, low projection surface, designed specifically for urban warfare.

"...With Academician Ma's support, the 02 adopted electric drive, powered by a new type of battery, with a range of 300 minutes. The combat AI of the XT-01 was optimized, making it more responsive and more autonomous!"

Looking at the small Type 02 in front of him, Zhou Mingrui felt that it looked familiar, especially the front part which resembled a cat's mouth.
