Chapter 429 The Star Gate is completely surrounded!
The complete destruction of the first group of advance personnel made the atmosphere within the Alien Strategy Committee become very depressing and heavy.
It's not that Kong Ming and others deplore those CP members and researchers, but it is confirmed that the civilization on the other side of the star gate has long been prepared for their own invasion.
In other words, the star gate, which is only two meters wide and long, has been targeted by a large amount of heavy firepower.
【Dong dong dong. 】
"Come in."
"Chairman, this is the Weapons Research Institute's estimate of the enemy's firepower."
A young official knocked on the door three times and walked in. He did not feel any discomfort in the smoke-filled conference room and naturally placed a document on the table in front of Chairman Fernandez.
"Well, let's go out."
"yes!"
After the official exited the room, Fernandez read the brief dozen or so sentences in the report and then handed it to Lieutenant General Kong Ming beside him.
"Let's see."
"OK."
Lieutenant General Kong Ming took it and took a look. His eyes widened in surprise and he said, "High-explosive mine? Heavy howitzer?"
The meaning of this report is that the first four cipher pol members who explored the distance were not bombarded, but may have stepped on high-power mines or complex multiple mines.
Because there is no sound of the shells breaking through the air when the shells hit in the image data, and the fire is also spurting from the bottom up.
The six people near the star gate have been able to determine that they were bombarded by heavy artillery. The explosion picture of the first artillery shell obtained through the pause was probably a heavy howitzer with a caliber of more than 100 millimeters.
to be honest.
This assessment result made Lieutenant General Kong Ming feel relieved. After all, both landmines and howitzers were gunpowder weapons, and their power did not seem too outrageous.
But this does not mean that we can completely relax our vigilance. No one knows whether the other party has stronger weapons or methods.
The most important thing is that the four cipher Pols actually stepped on a landmine?
Did they walk into a large-scale minefield, or did the other party make precise arrangements in advance? You must know that the other party has a strong ability to predict the future.
If it’s the latter, that’s a big problem!
There is no guarantee that the other party is just looking at what others are doing. The reason why the other party uses mines and howitzers is purely because they think that to deal with those cipher pols, they only need to use weapons of this level.
"We should send more people to get more intelligence. If it is confirmed that the opponent's methods are really only at the level of heavy howitzers, we can consider dispatching general combat power!"
Lieutenant General Kong Ming handed the document to the other vice chairman and made a serious suggestion to Chairman Fernandez.
"Should we continue to send cipher pol or the army?"
"cipher pol, after all, they are professionals in detecting this kind of thing, but this time there must be more people, and there must be people who are domineering. It is best to be able to fly. At least they must see clearly how many troops and artillery the opponent has, but in the past Just in case, don’t send combat power above a lieutenant general, otherwise once the opponent uses stronger means, the losses will be too great.”
In Kong Ming's view, people above lieutenant general are rare combat powers, and those below are considered dispensable.
"Okay, does anyone else have any other opinions?"
Chairman Fernandez was very assured of Lieutenant General Kong Ming's military qualities and had no intention of pointing fingers.
To put it bluntly, he, the chief of staff of the Supreme Governing Council, came to the Alien Strategy Committee as chairman purely to support this department.
Seeing the other vice-chairmen shaking their heads, he immediately said: "That's it, I will notify the cipher pol headquarters immediately to adjourn the meeting."
After saying that, he stood up and left the conference room first.
The next day.
Twenty CP members in suits and sunglasses gathered in front of the electrical gate of the biochemical safety station. A closer look revealed that among them were CP7 Pulan and Belloc who had taken 'big moom' on a tour of Kabane World.
One of them has the dragonfly form of the Bug Fruit, and the other has the swallow form of the Bird Fruit. They are also the only devil fruit users in the team and those who can use two-color Haki.
To be honest, although Cipher Pol looks quite powerful, his abilities in espionage and assassination are limited to those who are domineering.
At least compared to the military in terms of numbers, it is definitely far inferior.
Therefore, the headquarters is simply reluctant to invest too many elites in such a risky task.
"Set off!"
The captain of this operation is Pu Lan, because he is the strongest. There is a phone bug with a long black string sitting on each of their shoulders.
It is worth noting that the body surface of these phone bugs and the surface of the black line are covered with a layer of kabar's cardiac membrane material.
Because they had determined that there was no problem with the air composition in the other world, they just underwent triple disinfection and then rushed into the arid world inside the star gate as quickly as possible. Then they formed a tacit understanding of two people in a group, one after another. Afterimages scattered in all directions.
Especially Pulan and Belloc, they turned into large dragonflies and large black swallows and flew high into the sky...
The action requirement this time is just one word, quick!
Researchers at the Weapons Research Institute have long calculated the location of the artillery based on previous ballistic measurements, and their mission goal is to find it!
At this moment, the top military and political leaders of the world government were all paying attention to the virtual screen with different expressions.
Soon, as the twenty people moved at high speed, the environment around the star gate became increasingly clear. The geography and climate experts from the Academy of Sciences immediately confirmed: "It should be a tropical desert climate area. The landscape is mainly plains and sand dunes. There seem to be many mountain shadows in the north..."
But at this time.
【boom! 】
【boom! ! 】
Fierce explosions appeared again on the virtual screen, and there were still explosions one after another, and then the screens went black one after another.
Obviously, even with Kabane's heart membrane to strengthen the defense, it could not stop such a powerful explosive attack.
"It's confirmed. They placed the mines precisely. They actually predicted where these cipher pols would go?!" Lieutenant General Kong Ming stood up and said in a deep voice with an unusually serious face.
Because it was an action formation in tandem, the latter could clearly see the attack on the former from the perspective of the latter. When the latter took two steps forward and was about to stop, an explosion also occurred under his feet. Then disappear...
In just a few seconds, the eighteen virtual screens went dark!
Fortunately, Pulan and Belloc's high-altitude perspectives were still there. Through the images they sent back, the World Government first noticed that this place turned out to be a peninsula surrounded by sea on three sides.
But what happened next stunned all the staff at the headquarters of the Alien Strategy Committee.
First of all, the sea was actually filled with hundreds of large armored battleships, and the muzzles of all their naval guns were aimed at the star gate!
Immediately afterwards, I saw the only direction leading to the mainland, on the earthy, dry land, densely packed trenches criss-crossed, and countless fortresses dotted here and there.
Armored trains carrying large-caliber gun barrels moved slowly and orderly along the railway tracks. Tens of thousands of heavy howitzers were distributed in multiple positions. Beyond that, it was endless, seemingly stretching for dozens of miles, even up to Hundreds of miles of barracks buildings......
How many troops are gathered here?
million?
It can only be regarded as a unit of measurement!
【咻————咻————】
Suddenly, there were two more sharp piercing sounds that pierced everyone's eardrums, and then the perspectives of Pulan and Belloc also darkened...
The last scene I saw was a surge of white mist and the screams of two people!
