Everything is developing in the direction Wu Chen expected. The monster train that the Rockettes team up to clear out is itself a monster.
When Rockettes returned to the Fiat, the distortion that lost plot suppression occurred again. The flesh and blood tentacles that grew disorderly emerged from the broken windows one after another. While covering the metal body, they also formed a pair of ferocious ghost horns at the front of the car.
However, the straight ghost horns spurted out long flames backwards even more bizarrely. It was like two rocket engines installed on the roof of the car, pushing the monster train to accelerate violently and chase the Fiat. The team's closed-circuit video then heard female engineer Shi Ben exclaiming: "It's the jet train M-497 Cockroach!"
In the 1970s, due to the need for Cold War confrontation, black technologies from various camps emerged in endlessly. Many inventions from the Cold War are still indispensable items in life today, while some were forgotten along with this period, like the jet train. The world's first jet train was the M-497 Cockroach developed by New York Central Railroad engineer Don Wetzel in 1966. The two huge engines placed on the top of the front look like a jet train with wide-eyed cockroaches. It was tested on the railway track between Butler, Indiana and Stryker, Ohio, reaching a maximum speed of 295 kilometers per hour. No other train in the United States has broken this record since.
The M-497 Flesh Cockroach chasing the Fiat is an aberration of this Cold War jet train. The speed even exceeded the limit of 295 kilometers per hour, reaching a top speed of over 300 kilometers per hour, chasing the Fiat.
"FH-70 is ready to attack." Wu Chen gave the order.
The "FH-70 rotating tank turret" of the Fiat 421 A armored intercity car with raised roof then rose out of the roof.
"Sylvia, can you?" Coco was a little worried.
The newlywed widow Sylvia is far stronger than Coco imagined, and because of the assimilation effect of "empathy", Sylvia can integrate into the sisterhood of the times faster: "Mr. Commander, I can do it."
The 421 A armored raised-roof intercity car is a collage of the "support locomotive" of the ETR Y 0160 Pandolino armored train. It also has three compartments in the front, middle and rear: "driver's cabin", "support compartment", and "passenger compartment". Sylvia immediately walked from the "cockpit" into the "support compartment" and controlled the "FH-70 rotating tank turret" with the magnetic drum handle that completed mechanical automation.
A 155mm anti-personnel blasting grenade has a dense killing radius of 60 meters after the explosion, and the maximum killing radius reaches 350 to 360 meters. The power is very amazing. If combined with an air-explosion fuse, the dense fragment coverage area can even be larger than a standard football field. Within the effective distance, it can not only achieve huge lethality against unprotected targets, but also create an explosion crater with a diameter of more than 5 meters and a depth of up to 1.8 meters. The shock wave generated during the explosion can easily tear through light armor within 3 meters and cause serious damage to walls 10 meters away. In order to attack solid targets, the 155mm howitzer is also equipped with concrete-destroying projectiles (penetrating projectiles), which are semi-armor-piercing projectiles using delayed fuses, or thick-walled grenades with delayed fuses at the bottom of the projectile. The projectiles are loaded with thick-walled high-strength steel. With a small amount of explosives, the projectiles explode after drilling into the concrete fortifications to a certain depth, which can increase the blasting effect. When hitting a reinforced concrete fortress at an average landing speed of 600 meters/second at an angle of 90°, the penetration force is 0.7 meters. The maximum penetration depth when hitting ordinary concrete fortifications is about 3 meters. If it is an ordinary soft soil layer, the maximum penetration depth is about 3 meters. The penetration depth can be close to 10 meters. The barrel life is 2500 rounds.
The FH-70, which has not yet been finalized, is a veritable heavy artillery in this era.
After the collage machinery is automated, you only need to control the drum handle in the "support compartment" to easily complete the artillery strike that requires the cooperation of an 8-man artillery team.
The reason why the Era Girls were able to form combat power in a short period of time is also closely related to the continuous collage upgrades of the Fiat. To use an inappropriate analogy, how many days does it take to learn to play arcade games? Whether you can become a master in one day is a matter of opinion. At least you must be a beginner in playing.
The surging power of 13,791 horsepower allows the "six-car Fiat" "road and rail locomotive" to reach full speed.
Wu Chen stepped on the switch deeply and surged all the way through 300, approaching the 400 mark.
The distance between you and the monster train behind you is visible to the naked eye. With precise control of the switch, Wu Chen finally allowed the Fiat and the M-497 Flesh Cockroach to travel at the same speed.
"fire!"
"Boom -" there was a loud noise, and the explosive grenade hit the target. Blow up the two rocket engines and half the front of the car. Flesh and steel exploded together. The monster train suddenly stalled.
Inside the blown-out front of the car, the sight of squirming pieces of flesh and broken tentacles wrapped around steel parts was shocking to everyone who saw it. The indescribable chaotic structure of the monster train gave Wu Chen a creepy feeling, which was second only to the mosaic spots.
He was almost certain that the monster train in front of him was an aberration of elevator cards that infected each other, a combination of plots.
One shot shattered the front of the monster car, and the Fiat immediately pulled away.
"Mr. Commander, there is still a traffic light track intersection ahead." Learning from the previous lesson, Coco zoomed in to the limit. It can be clearly seen that the three railway tracks continue to extend towards the next section after passing the traffic lights.
"Okay, Coco." Wu Chen had already thought: "The crisis of the monster train is not over yet."
"It's such a pity that the rails can only go forward and there is no way to turn around." Coco was worried that the monster train could not be killed with one shot. I want to go back and get another shot. In her opinion, there is no monster that cannot be killed by one shot. If there is, then it can be shot again.
"Who says we can't turn around?" Wu Chen smiled and winked.
"Huh?" Coco passed the traffic light with doubt.
"Click", the street scene is changing.
Ahead is an old steel-girder railway bridge.
"It looks a lot like the old railway bridge on the Arno River in Florence." Coco was not very sure: "But the Arno River channel is not so wide, and the river is not so full. It is almost submerging the bridge piers. .”
"Yeah." Wu Chen had already seen the motorboat rushing towards the water near the bridge.
Keke followed Wu Chen's gaze and pushed the camera closer. Female police captain Gianna recognized the origin of the motorboat at a glance: "Mr. Commander, be careful. This is an MTM boat!"
"MTM boat" is a kind of armed small boat in Italy during World War II. Its full name is "ship-borne ramming and demolition boat". The maximum speed is 33 knots, and it is equipped with 300 kilograms of explosives. The crew needs to make a final correction of the course about 100 meters close to the target and then jump off the ship to escape, to indicate that it is not a suicide attack.
In the early morning of March 26, 1941, two old Italian destroyers launched six MT boats of the 10th Speedboat Detachment outside the anchorage of Souda Bay, Crete. The boats sailed 12 kilometers in the dark before entering the anchorage, and selected the ships including the York. Three British targets, including heavy cruisers, launched an assault. Three of the boats failed and failed to attack, but the other three hit their targets. The York was hit in the middle by two attack boats and ran aground. It was ultimately abandoned because it could not be repaired locally. None of the Italian commandos were killed and all were captured.
"Is it possible that we are back in World War II?" Wu Chen immediately ordered: "Raise the turret and prepare to attack."
"As you command!"
