Inside Liuding's radar station, twenty workers in old PAC marine uniforms stared at the screen anxiously.
The middle-aged man with a cap on gravely watched the red dot on the radar as a trace of the same anxious expression appeared between his eyebrows.
”Did it launch?”
”Launch confirmed.” A drop of cold sweat rolled down his forehead as the worker closest to the general typed on the screen with shaking fingers as it confirmed the reliability of the signal.
[What did that bit*h Tang Miya do, didn't she say she reached an agreement with that lunatic dictator?] With eyes locked on the red dot ascending, the general cursed the person countless times already.
”The missile is approaching the Troposphere.”
The general cursed and took out the phone from his waist.
”Attention Cannon one crew, raise the electromagnetic cannon.”
”Roger.”
Since the failed mission last year, the heavy electromagnetic pulse cannon were not used for a long time. However, because of the Fishbone base's dangerous act, the cannon was reactivated.
But everyone knew that if a war were to erupt, Liuding would be the eventual loser. Once the Fishbone tank bulldozed the feeble allies and approached the Bohai aircraft carrier, it would only be a matter of time before they sink Liuding.
”The missile reached the stratosphere and had started to turn.”
”Landing spot confirmed, the target is Songjiang near the outskirt of the city center.”
”Alarm deactivated.”
In two short seconds, there was a comical turn of events.
Alarm deactivated? Not target towards Liuding?
The general was shocked.
He thought that the dictator at the west of Wanghai finally couldn't sit around any longer as it was prepared to flash its evil fangs at Liuding. But he didn't expect that the ballistic missile's target was not Liuding or Liuding's allies, instead of an unknown force located in the city center?”
The general processed this for a minute before he ordered.
”… Attention air division, send a helicopter to investigate the target area.”
”Roger.”
…
Dongfeng-76 (Mimic) ballistic missile was developed and constructed by Jiang Lin from the aerospace department. It first displayed its massive destructibility in the war between humans and the mutated humans. With the help of the fallout shelter, Jiang Lin made further improvements to its design, such as replacing the engine, fuel, and modules, to finally complete the Dongfeng-76 (Mimic) ballistic missile.
The Fishbone base manufactured a total of five and deployed them at low grounds near the rural area to replace the not-so-reliable giant firecracker. Using them to deter the threat of Liuding's massive electromagnetic cannon.
Right now, in front of the launch pad at the Shenxiang colony, southwest of Wanghai, a few missile maintenance workers were conducting the last launching check.
The number five launch pad deployed at Shenxiang received the order from the base leader Jiang Chen and immediately initiated the launch program.
The green indicator light turned on as the target coordinate was inputted into the central control program of the rocket.
”Target coordinate locked.”
”Engine ignited.”
”Launchpad separated.”
”Launch!”
The thick white smoke blew across the street. The six meters high ballistic missile separated with the launch pad and flew towards the sky filled with radiation dust.
The all grey ballistic missile pierced the cloud like a sharp sword.
