Chapter 518 Chariot Assault

The rumbling sound from the manor shocked the night sky and was clearly heard across more than ten kilometers.

The Philippine Army, which was heading towards the airport, showed obvious hesitation and panic in the continuous thunder.

Since World War II, they have not fought any tough battles for many years. When they encounter the most powerful enemy, they are nothing more than rebel guerrillas in the south. This is only when the US military is stationed as foreign aid and commander, so they can barely maintain the seemingly stable overall situation.

The sudden battle broke out near Manila, although the area was small and the scale was small, the impact was very likely to be fatal. There was an international airport right there. If the enemy in the manor rushed out, rushed to the airport, or even rushed into the city, causing some foreign passengers and guests to be injured and killed, the government would be in great trouble!

Therefore, Commander Lucio, the commander of the Manila guards, was called up in the middle of the night and never had a single minute of the day. The calls from all sides kept screaming like death-hunting ghosts, making him overwhelmed and sweated in the air-conditioned room.

Later, it was initially determined that the combat situation had been controlled and the enemy's biological forces had been eliminated. They could calmly go to "put into battle" - in fact, it was to clear the battlefield and get cheap. ¢ So Commander Lucio cheered up and gave a passionate mobilization speech to the soldiers who were summoned together in a hurry, and then took motor vehicles and set off in a mighty manner!

The Philippine Army is very "strong"!

As an armed force that claims to challenge the Chinese Army, they have as many as 70,000 to 80,000 (not 780,000), troops of five military regions, eight divisions, and one light armored brigade. They are equipped with a total of up to 501 armored combat vehicles and 242 towed cannons.

It sounds like it is very powerful. Most of the people in the Philippines think so, so they always protest, fighting against the evil Red Republic to the end, and giving the enemy a headache.

But looking closely, it's not the same thing at all.

The most powerful equipment among these more than 70,000 troops and 500 armored combat vehicles is the British-made "Scorpion" light tank with a total of 41.

This kind of thing that weighs more than ten tons and carries a 123-type 76mm main gun, even if it is placed on the battlefield of World War II, is something that has extremely worrying survivability and attack power. It is the most powerful weapon that the Philippines can have. It is like a treasure that he is reluctant to let go.

The rest of the 1985 American Aifv armored vehicles, the 1967 M113 armored personnel carrier, the 1993 British private MBA armored vehicles, the 1979 Cadillac V-100 armored vehicles, etc., have a variety of varieties, like a collection of old-fashioned armored equipment.

The number is scary just to hear. But in fact, there is no one that can withstand the blow of even the cheapest RPG7. Even heavy machine guns or machine guns with slightly larger caliber can easily eliminate them.

When looking at the "powerful" artillery units, the main figure is 120 m101 105mm howitzers. This heavy infantry weapon that began production in 1941 has been equipped on the US air killer---ac130 "air gunboat". But the army? Who is using this thing!

Another Oto-melara 100 pieces of howitzer are, which are advanced weapons from the 1950s, and have been equipped with many countries including Vietnam and performed quite well in the war.

The last one of the most popular guys is 12 155mm heavy artillery (there are other data that says there are only 8)!

But looking at its model, it seems to be a product pulled from the World War II museum. In addition to being able to shock the enemy, I really don’t know how many fierce attacks the other party had launched when they dragged into the battlefield and went through hardships.

With such a "strong" armed force to fight, the Philippine Army has a hundred times more confident and full of fighting spirit (?). In general, he is quite confident in local defense operations.

Based on this, at the beginning, Commander Lucio was as strong and fighting spirit as he said inspiring his soldiers. But when the troops slowly drove out of the barracks, the battle on the manor was coming to an end.

When approaching less than five kilometers, the sound of gunfire became sparse, as if it was about to end at any time. This should have made people happy - after all, it was definitely not a simple enemy to allow powerful forces to launch missiles and aviation bomb attacks. Later, low-altitude short-range missiles emerged and killed two advanced fighter jets. This scene was already scared by Lucio's sweat, his hands and feet were sore, and he almost ordered the troops to turn around!

The power of surviving under attack by aviation bombs and missiles, and even using ground-to-air missiles to counterattack is really something that their so-called powerful soldiers can deal with?

Others don’t know that Lucio himself has seen a real world-class army and understands that even if the army of the whole country is combined, it may not be able to fight a mechanized infantry brigade of a strong country. Anyone who dispatches a company of main battle tanks can form a crushing sweep on all their armored forces!

Helplessly, this happened in his country, near Manila. As a guardian, he had no reason to retreat. Besides, the backstage boss gave the money, and he had to bite the bullet and put it on his shoulders in reason!

But now I am about to arrive outside the manor, and something deadly has happened! A big man who has been talking to him can't contact him at critical moments!

Lucio had a lot of thought and wrote down the tactical radio frequency bands of the raided manor paratroopers in advance. He called out loudly for a few minutes with a loud call from the one assigned to him, but he did not get a slight response.

At this point, as long as you are not a fool, something terrible must have happened there, which forced them to keep the radio silent. Even, it was no longer possible to respond!

The staff officer who had been following him had gone to the United States to study and study. The results of the analysis of the various situations he knew were very shocked! Looking at the manor with fireworks rising in the distance, it was a slight sense of fighting!

Seeing that Lucio seemed to be unable to make up his mind, he had to remind: "Commander, you have to think clearly. If we rashly engage in the battle with serious lack of intelligence, it is very likely that we will cause huge casualties. At that time, your location will be seriously threatened!"

Lucio was immediately shocked and his face became more and more unpleasant.

This is not impossible.

The Philippine Army is as powerful as it is complicated and complicated. Although the people who come up are extremely powerful, they should never underestimate the bureaucrats below. They are not very good at fighting. Their quality of fighting is very trash. Their experience in fighting for power is extremely rich. If you are not careful, you may cause you a lot of trouble.

But thinking of his responsibilities, he couldn't help but hesitate: "But, after all, we take on the important task of defending the country. The matter is so big that it is impossible to sit idly by and watch the enemy go away. The pressure of public opinion should not be underestimated."

A fierce light flashed in the chief of staff's eyes and whispered: "We just need to use artillery to bombard the outside world for a while. We just say that most of the enemy has been wiped out by us, and the remaining ones are running away in advance and are pursuing."

This is clearly a sign that we want to forge military achievements. Both of us can see clearly. Anyway, the manor has bombarded the bombs, missiles, rockets, and grenades toss and turns. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be messed up everywhere. They will use cannons to blast the scene for a while. The scene will definitely not be able to see them. At that time, they can easily make up the number of killing enemies, and who can confirm it? Say the number of corpses is not enough? They are all burned to ashes or buried in the ruins. OK!

In short, bad things can also become good things, the key depends on whether you will play.

Lucio still hesitated: "But there are friendly paratroopers inside. If the shelling rashly, it will cause accidental injury."

The Chief of Staff curled his lips: "They will protect themselves. Besides, there will always be indirect damage in combat, and I believe they will definitely forgive me. Don't we still have tactical radio stations in our hands? If we really encounter a mistake, they will contact us."

Lucio suddenly remembered the incident of the bus kidnapping that happened before. The Philippine police performed a gorgeous and stupid action under the attention of the whole world, allowing the world to see with their own eyes what a typical representative of waste incompetence is.

The scandals that followed made the Philippines a laughing stock in the world. First, President Ajinuo sneered strangely, and then shameless police and students took photos at the scene of the incident. Secondly, the national flag was covered with the robbers' coffin---This is a criminal! Hey! Covering them with national flags is a sure thing that their hijacking and killing foreign tourists is in line with the positive meaning of the country?

Later, when the bodies of five victims were transferred, the museum was opened for reporters to take photos, which had broken through the moral bottom line of most civilized countries for respecting the deceased.

However, the Filipinos never seemed to have regarded this as much trouble. They calmly spent just a few days to "close the case" and return the shrubs covered with the national flag to their families, and then left it alone. No one was punished for this.

However, from another perspective, it can be understood that in the current Philippines, kidnapping and extortion have almost become a "family side job" business. Under the power of the government, various weapons are rampant among the people and the economy is in a mess, so robbery has become a good deal to make a fortune.

Perhaps President Ajinuo's strange sneer was based on this point, thinking that those guys were doing beautifully? It is unknown.

In short, Commander Lucio seemed to have been inspired by this incident, and his panic suddenly weakened a lot. He coughed, put on a majesty again, ordered the troops to launch an offensive posture on the spot, encircled the manor with armored vehicles, and then artillery troops were set off to prepare for bombardment!

We won't complain about why we are almost on the battlefield. Their entire battalion has not been scattered and is also dragging a strange behavior of 105mm howitzer.

After this order, it was obvious that most soldiers and officers showed relief and then were ready to pose. The eight "Scorpion" tanks used to take on the main threat of force were even more powerful and turned the barrels, aiming at the manor and acting as warning signs.

The fastest move was actually the light infantry riding a truck. They were more skillful in preparing the mortar on the vehicle first, and then aimed at the manor and shot it with a test shot.

Less than a kilometer, the American M-30 mortar with a diameter of 107mm can perform quite good results, with a sharp whistling, dull explosions and flames shining. The shells exploded a shallow pit in a farmland in the manor.

Lucio signaled the gunner to stop first and not rush to open fire at full speed. On the one hand, he felt sorry for the shells being too expensive. On the other hand, he also planned to wait for the friendly forces inside to react. Look, I have greeted you with shells. No matter what happened before, he should have responded on his own initiative, right?

However, this was useless. The paratroopers inside had already been killed or injured. A few remaining people who were lucky enough to hide in the dense forest with the help of the night were injured and they were not too late to escape. Who had the time to respond to a blow, in their opinion, was simply an idiot calling?

But it was unfair to say that there was no effect at all. Because about five minutes after the explosion (I can't understand how they could have waited for so long), a dull roar suddenly came from the direction of the manor, and then the ground trembled slightly!

The Philippine soldiers guarding ahead were confused and couldn't figure out what the situation was, but Lucio and the Chief of Staff immediately changed their faces! They were experienced and knowledgeable and could hear it at the first time that it was clearly a movement that could only be made when the heavy chariots ran!

It seemed to be confirming their bad guesses. In just one minute, in the darkness, a low bush ahead suddenly made a crackling sound. The crawler crushed the ground and the clanging sound produced by collision was particularly vivid. Several majestic figures appeared faintly in the night against the fireworks!

Lucio's heart started to throat early and screamed in a different tone: "Take a flare, prepare all firepower carefully!"

The gunner, who was already holding the mortar shells and preparing to load, hurriedly found the flare and shot it out. When a shiny little umbrella fell slowly, the true appearance of the black shadow that came back to the face was completely exposed to their vision!

Two 59 magic-modified main battle tanks, with the mighty and majestic posture of the 120mm smoothbore cannon, as if they could crush everything, and rushed forward with a fierce acceleration! The typical half-egg-shaped cast turret was too distinct, and the five-team heavy-bearing wheel representing justice and authority was a symbol of strength. When its roar appeared on the battlefield, it represented another mission of justice and must be completed!

"Tank tank?!"

Commander Lucio screamed like a fool and almost fell from the command car!

The chief of staff responded much faster than him, and without saying a word, he ordered loudly: "At all weapons, aim at the chariot in front of him and fire!"

It's over, slap the roof of the taxi and ordered the driver to turn around and run for his life!

If you can't even be a star, you can only use it to bully the thugs and guerrillas who don't even have a rocket launcher, and fight against the main battle tanks that are hard to mess with at first sight? Their brains are not broken yet!

Unfortunately, both Lucio and the Chief of Staff obviously overestimated the reaction speed of their soldiers. When they saw the tanks, they were all so scared! What kind of fire-raising attacks were all driven on the spot, turning in panic and ready to run away!

The quality of the army is fully demonstrated at this moment!

All the vehicles were moving together, and there was no order and coordination. They fought with a group of headless flies, and they all wanted to break out of the seemingly spacious passage from the tank to attack the front. As a result, dozens of cars immediately collided, rear-ended, scratched, and screamed in all kinds of screams!

Right ahead, in the front of the 59 tank, Leoni, who was sitting in the captain's position, saw this scene, sneered disdainfully, and ordered: "When facing the enemy, they were on fire, rushing forward, crushing them all!"

Her body was full of passion, and the steel car of more than 30 tons seemed to have instilled infinite power in her. It was from the great Soviet bloodline, the passion and ambition of defeating the powerful German fascists, and integrating into such a chariot was like returning to the majestic era when threatening red threats all over the world!

What responded to her was the roar of the full-power diesel engine, followed by the stunning sound of the 120mm smoothbore cannon!

"Boom! Boom!"

Two guns were fired at the same time, and two "Scorpion" light tanks exploded and rolled to the side like toys.

After a moment of stopping, two more guns passed, another splash of steel splashed, and flames soared into the sky!

Within a few hundred meters, the 59 magic modification with a two-way stability system is a one-sided advantage. It fires while moving, and it is almost completely shot without any bullets, and every shot will be won!

With just a little distance, it was quickly shortened under the crushing of the clanging tracks. Until the near future, all eight "scorpions" were destroyed, and there were even two armored vehicles behind it. The spectacular scene of the infantry fighting chariot being shot through!

Then, the 59 tank, which was strong and powerful, was unreasonably aimed at the thin-skinned things, crushed and collided unscrupulously, and forced two passages of flesh, steel and garbage piled up, leaving! (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
