#465 - Chapter 456: Tactical Power
"Boom—! Boom—!"
A series of dense explosions erupted in the middle of the New Sheep City convoy!
Drones were dropping bombs!!
"Ahhh!!"
The people of New Sheep City were terrified. They couldn't tell where the enemy was coming from in the smoke, nor where the explosions were originating. They only felt as if they had suddenly been thrown into a battlefield!
Screams, explosions, shouts, curses.
All the chaotic sounds converged into a magnificent battle song, echoing on this nameless road in Shenzhen.
Da da da!!!
Many survivors from the New Sheep City base who were still alive raised their machine guns and frantically pulled the triggers, trying to kill the unseen enemy.
Some even fired at the sky, realizing that the drone sounds they had heard earlier were accompanied by deadly explosions.
However.
The thick smoke obstructed their vision.
Even though the explosive shockwaves dispersed a lot of it, the annoying thing was that the enemy, hiding somewhere, quickly threw more smoke grenades to replenish it!
This kind of indiscriminate shooting was destined to be futile. Even if they occasionally hit a few drones, it wouldn't matter much.
Even worse, some people didn't hit the enemy with their shots, but instead hit their own people next to them.
It was complete chaos.
Before the two hundred people from New Sheep City could even see their enemies, over a hundred lives had been taken away by landmines and the constant explosions!!
Many tenant survivors who had participated in this Red Cloud siege operation simply because New Sheep City provided food were crying out for mercy, begging to be let go, but no one responded to them.
The only response was an even fiercer attack!
"Bang."
A member of the New Sheep City base hiding behind a heavy truck was shot in the chest. He collapsed in disbelief.
[Wasn't it just bombs? I should be safe behind the truck, not getting shot by our own people!?]
Filled with doubt, all the strength in his body rapidly faded away, and he quickly died from the gunshot wound to his heart within seconds!
"Bang!"
Two more people from New Sheep City fell, also shot in their bodies.
At this time, many people realized that even when they weren't firing randomly, bullets were still shooting at them from outside!
"Careful! There are people outside shooting at us!"
The surviving New Sheep City members quickly began to look for nearby vehicles to hide behind. Although the smoke was thick, they could still see things within a few meters.
Just when they thought they would be a little safer after finding cover.
"Bang!"
Another person was shot in the head and died instantly behind a car!
Another survivor hiding behind the car next to him quickly shrank back, trembling as he moved away from the spot where his companion had died.
He figured that it must have been a stray bullet from the enemy outside that had just hit his unlucky companion.
As long as he moved further away and reduced his exposed area, he shouldn't be so easily hit.
"Bang!"
His body suddenly shook, and he felt a pain in his stomach. An intensely unimaginable pain came from his abdomen. The pistol he had been holding fell to the ground, and he collapsed, powerless.
[How could this be!?]
He realized he had been shot, and it was only a few seconds after his companion had been hit.
They're so accurate!
Because it didn't hit a vital point, he didn't die immediately, but was completely unable to move, and could only lie on the ground, convulsing and clutching his agonizing wound.
Not far from him, more and more New Sheep City survivors were being hit by bullets coming from all directions!
The smoke couldn't stop them at all!
"Damn it! They somehow know our positions outside! Everyone, find a way to rush out! If we stay here, we're all going to die!!"
Someone who reacted quickly immediately realized that staying put was a dead end and began to stand up and rush towards the area in their sight where the fog was thinner.
"Bang!"
Unfortunately, they were still greeted by ruthless bullets!
The people outside saw these people running and trying to get out and immediately showered them with bullets, not giving them a chance to rush out of the fog!
They wanted to suppress and kill them in the smoke!
Outside the thick fog.
The ones causing all this misery were naturally the Green Source combat troops who had come to support the Red Cloud base!
"Continue to control the firepower! Kill them all! Leave no one alive!"
Zhong Yu's indifferent voice echoed in the team channel, like an emotionless machine. He continued to issue orders to his team to reap lives.
On the roof of a building, he wore a strange device on his head and occasionally fired a few shots with a machine gun in his hand, constantly killing the enemies who had come.
In other positions, there were more Green Source members wearing the same strange devices doing the same thing!
It was a thermal imager!
The thick fog couldn't stop this technological creation from observing at all. When the New Sheep City survivors hid in what they thought were relatively safe positions, they didn't know that they were being shot and killed by the Green Source combat personnel outside, who were essentially cheating, like target practice!
There were also some team members operating drones, controlling these mechanical creations to fly above the thick fog and occasionally drop base-manufactured high-explosive bombs!
This was an unequal battle!
Even though the other side had as many as two hundred people, while they only had forty, the level of weapons, equipment, and tactical timing was completely different.
Just as Zhong Yu had said at the beginning, the people from the New Sheep City base were doomed to die this time!
In their formulated battle plan, the other side had no chance of winning.
Unless they didn't come here today.
However.
As long as they passed through here, they would step into the trap of the Grim Reaper.
They didn't know that before they even entered this street, their location information had been intercepted by Green Source's deployed military drones one or two kilometers away and reported back to the team members to prepare for battle.
This was the advantage of drones in combat.
Coupled with the deployed landmines and smoke tactics, the enemy was destined to become unjustly killed ghosts.
They would go to see the King of Hell without even seeing their faces.
The Green Source team members' gunfire and bombs continued incessantly. After the bombs were dropped, they flew back to be reloaded, and the enemies within sight were directly killed with firearms. If they hid behind cover and couldn't be shot, the team members operating the drones would drop bombs to blast them.
The people of New Sheep City had no power to resist!
Their indiscriminate bullets had no effect at all. Even if they were lucky enough to hit one or two drones, it was useless. The Green Source team members would immediately pull out new drones and launch them into the air!
Now, Green Source had so many types and numbers of drones that other forces couldn't even imagine!
Qin Jin alone had hoarded hundreds or thousands of them during peacetime, and after the apocalypse, he had also asked team members to specifically search for this kind of thing. Even the drones that survivors from outside used to trade food were important items to exchange.
Not to mention the military models found in the military region.
Now, there were at least tens of thousands of drones of various models in the Green Source base!
They couldn't use them all!
They simply couldn't use them all!
It was unknown how long it had passed, but the gunfire on Green Source's side began to cease, and there was no retaliatory gunfire from inside the smoke.
On the surface, these New Sheep City people who had come to attack had been slaughtered by them!
