Chapter 1665: 'Urban Management' Is Here
Iron armor rumbles, crawler tracks roll.
Zhou Qingfeng's 2nd Guards Brigade received the assault order and galloped towards the bloody Celaya battlefield with full horsepower.
Papa Julio, the leader, got out of the turret. He looked at the meteors falling rapidly in the sky, and shouted happily on the radio: "It's time to counterattack. Now turn on the infrared headlights for me. Let's go clean up those bastards."
Julio, as the commander, is equipped with a passive individual night vision device. But the old '59' is too old, and only active night vision goggles with infrared headlights were installed when it was refitted. When this light is on, it is simply a searchlight in the dark, and it exposes itself when seeing others clearly.
It's just that the armored unit of the "Mo Tongzhen" that has entered Celaya is being beaten by the Mineral Bullet and lost its way. Father Julio decided to make a bold move to prevent his people from becoming blind in the dark.
The road of ten kilometers was quickly killed in twenty minutes. With the ultra-long-distance vision of 2,000 meters from the infrared headlights, Papa Julio can clearly observe the battlefield.
The enemy mechanized infantry that broke into the city are retreating outside the city to regroup. It seems that thousands of terminal bombs have beaten them enough, and there are not many armored vehicles left. One of the mechanized infantry broke away from the city and tried to retreat under the cover of several armored vehicles.
"Load the grenade and kill them." Father Julio gave the order, and the three platoons under him stopped and fired alternately, covering each other and advancing each other.
A row of four '59's opened fire quickly after aiming. The originally slightly silent battlefield was once again roaring with artillery. The reason why the tank is so powerful is that it combines firepower, mobility, and armor in one.
The mechanized infantry on the opposite side obviously didn't realize that an elite unit was coming in the dark, and even the few armored vehicles responsible for covering them seemed ignorant. There are even a dozen infantrymen hanging on the armored vehicle as a troop carrier.
When the grenade hits, the first thing to aim at is the infantry hanging outside. A grenade exploded in the dark, and the surrounding area of more than ten meters was immediately emptied, and the infantry was directly blown away. Some of the light armored vehicles would even burst and capsize due to the explosion of the grenade, igniting raging flames.
The burning fire became the best target indicator.
Papa Julio's tank company is still approaching. While reporting his current combat situation to his superiors, he is paying attention to the battlefield situation and commanding his subordinates. "Second row, there is a 'Stryker' opposite you."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, the strongest 'Stryker' on the opposite front opened fire. The 30mm cannon it is equipped with is not small, and it even has the ability to penetrate the main armor of '59'.
"Full battalion aimed at it,
Don't give it a chance. After the old man finished speaking, his own car also stopped. The gunner had just knocked out a grenade, and the loader immediately stuffed an armor-piercing bullet into the barrel.
Within a few seconds, dense flames continued to light up in the dark night. This is a tank company of fourteen tanks firing. Grenades and armor-piercing shells continued to bombard the Stryker armored vehicle.
The dozen-ton Stryker didn't have very good armor, and this unlucky armored vehicle was quickly beaten to the point of losing its combat effectiveness, turning it into a scumbag.
Without the cover of armored vehicles, the enemy's mechanized infantry could only flee in all directions. Papa Julio's company was still racing at high speed, and the tumbling tracks rolled up dust all over the sky, galloping to the edge of the city.
The enemy troops who were still raging in Celaya's defensive position before were already lying dead everywhere, and fled in a hurry.
'59' opened the way ahead, followed by dozens of BTR wheeled armored vehicles. After reaching the edge of the city, teams of mechanized infantry dismounted from armored vehicles and followed tanks and armored vehicles into the city.
A tank was in front, and just entering a street in the city, suddenly an M60A3 appeared at the corner of the street. When the two sides met, they fired immediately, but the projectiles were sprayed out, and the results were different.
The '59' armor-piercing projectile was bounced off the M60A3 turret, but the M60A3 easily penetrated the front of the '59' turret.
The loader and gunner who took the lead of '59' were killed on the spot. When the commander got out of the turret, he was shot down by the parallel machine gun of the enemy tank. Only the driver recovered his life.
"Don't panic, don't panic, the number of enemy tanks is small, we attack from multiple directions." Father Julio shouted on the radio, and the three tank platoons under his control immediately dispersed.
The M60A3 is quite powerful. The shells of the old '59' are too poor. They will definitely ricochet when hitting the opponent's front. It must be effective after hitting the side. In fact, there was no need for Papa Julio to give too many orders. His tanks approached from both directions of the street.
The M60A3 without a companion sensed something was wrong and tried to escape. It headed forward and reversed in the direction where '59' might appear, crashed into several broken buildings and tried to hide in the darkness.
But there are too many '59's, and they are everywhere in the dark night,...
M60A3 retreated into the next street, and a '59' tank platoon had been waiting for a long time behind. One shot broke the track, two shot hit the fuel tank, and the third shot aimed at the weak spot behind the enemy turret. The commander who fired into the soul shouted on the radio: "The enemy is finished, look for the next target."
The M60A3 with the fuel tank on caught fire, and the undead members of the turret escaped with the flames. They jumped on the ground and kept rolling, the flames were as hard to get rid of as a gangrene.
Papa Julio's company advanced rapidly, firing flares into the sky in an attempt to make their approach visible to the remaining defenders. There are still many enemies in the city, but it is difficult to form an offensive, and they even lose their organization because they are surrounded by a large number of '59'.
Jonathan, who stayed outside the city, watched the Celaya battle in its entirety. He personally guided the long-range artillery of the 'Mo Tongzhen', watched the defense line of the defenders being smashed to pieces, and opened the attack channel for the armored troops, and now he has to experience the tragic defeat of his own side.
When dozens of meteors appeared in the sky, Jonathan knew that the situation of the battle might change. But he really didn't expect the power of this variable to be so strong. Thousands of terminal-sensitive bullets knocked down more than half of the armored troops rushing into the city, causing heavy casualties.
That's scary enough....
But the army artillery group behind Celaya actually started to counterattack, directly blocking the follow-up support troops of the 'Mo Tongzhen'. The most frightening thing was that the Aurora Legion saw Celaya in a desperate situation, but at the last moment they dispatched a mechanized brigade including more than 200 tanks.
"Too many, really too many." Through the night vision device, Jonathan looked at the '59' who was charging like a wolf with the infrared headlights on in the field. This quantitative change led to a qualitative change, directly declaring that the armored forces that broke into the city were surrounded by heavy siege.
Several M60A3s escaped from the city, followed by dozens of '59s'. No one could survive the constant firing of muzzles that made the night as bright as day.
Jonathan watched one M60A3 after another being blown up, but he was completely helpless. These '59' are like a pack of wolves devouring tigers. When one is destroyed, ten can rush up. "It's over, the newly formed Second Armored Division of the 'Mo Tongzhen' has been disabled."
Among the '59' wolves that rushed out, there was a gray-haired but vigorous old commander standing on the turret of the leading tank. He was grabbing the radio microphone and shouting: "Follow me and continue to charge, the target is the enemy headquarters fifty kilometers away.
It's our turn to kill them. "
