Chapter 1414 - Power of The Cannon (2/2)
USN’s infantry had all retreated into the cave, and the mobile bunker was abandoned. The NAC anti-tank infantry from the rear finally arrived at the battlefield. Under Zhang Wei’s command, they deployed the recoilless cannon onto the ground and fired at the giant gate.
A dozen “Poisonous Python” rockets along with orange tail flames galloped towards the entrance of the cave, then exploded into a series of orange-red fireballs on the giant alloy panel! The huge door made an overwhelmed buzz, and the dull sound reverberated throughout the hills.
“WE GOT IT!”
However, when the smoke dissipated, Zhang Wei’s pupils suddenly constricted.
The giant circular alloy gate’s flat surface looked like nothing had happened. The dozen of rockets that could blow apart armored vehicles could not even leave a dent on its surface!
A word suddenly appeared in Zhang Wei’s mind.
Memory Alloy!
He had no time to hesitate.
As he watched the alloy gate that was only three-cars-wide before it was fully closed, Zhang Wei made the decisive decision, pressed on his helmet, and executed Plan B.
“Power Armor Squad on my command! ENGINE OUTPUT MAXIMUM. GET INSIDE BEFORE THE DOOR CLOSES!”
Blue flames burst out and thrust the T-3 power armors forward. With the wheels deployed, they charged into the cave.
A dozen USN power armors that had previously retreated into the cave realized NAC’s plan. They resolutely appeared from behind the alloy gate, lifted the alloy shield on their left air while the tongue of fire reappeared from the heavy machine gun in their other hand.
Bullets re-weaved a net between the two sides. Rockets screamed and were accompanied by the roar of grenades. These warriors who dared to face death were quickly sent by NAC to meet their god.
But even so, they had accomplished their goal. When the last USN power armor was blasted in the explosion of an anti-armor rocket, the heavy giant alloy door was finally firmly shut and blocked out all the T-3s that just made it to the entrance.
“DAMN IT!”
Zhang Wei slammed his fist against the concrete bunker, then stepped out from behind the bunker carrying his rifle.
The battlefield filled with gunpowder was full of fragmented mechanical wreckage. Without air support, USN soldiers were defeated in a firefight with the NAC, the National Guard, and the Minuteman. However, despite this outcome, they could not proclaim this victory.
Because the West Coast Meteorological Monitoring Center was still under American control…
They had to try their last resort.
Zhang Wei gritted his teeth and took out the tablet from his backpack. He set the attack coordinates on the map and clicked the last item in the “Available Support” list – the electromagnetic mega cannon!
He clicked confirm and took two steps back. While he put away the tablet, he pressed the button on his helmet.
“… attention all combats units, the electromagnetic mega cannon’s attack is en route. The target is the entrance of the West Coast Meteorological Monitoring Center. Take the necessary avoidance measures.”
