This area belongs to the arsenal, and there are no soldiers stationed on weekdays, so no one is blocking it in front.
The two robot beetles rushed to the small door of the first ammunition depot, and each began to branch off into two smaller blasting beetles, burrowing into the gap under the mesh iron door.
"Quick, grab it."
The pursuing soldiers were less than 5 meters away. The two soldiers running at the front swooped at the two robot beetles that were approaching the door and grabbed them with both hands.
When a robot beetle passed through the gap, it happened to be a protruding part of the uneven ground and was temporarily stuck.
Even though I tried my best, I couldn't get in, so I was caught.
The other robot beetle went very smoothly, and the detached blasting beetle passed through the gap and entered the ammunition warehouse.
"Damn it, it's in, we don't have the key, how do we get the door open?"
The soldiers who chased him to the door were dumbfounded when they saw the special large copper lock. Inside is an ammunition depot.
They didn't dare to shoot, let alone blast their way in. They had no choice but to ask someone to open the lock or physically break the lock ring to get in.
"Quickly, use the barrel of the gun to pry open the copper lock and find it."
The leader who followed quickly gave instructions, and a powerful soldier stepped forward and took action immediately.
At this moment, the robot beetle caught in the soldier's hand flashed a faint red light and emitted a trace of green smoke.
It turns out that when the robot beetle scans the amount of gunpowder that exceeds the set value, it will approach within one meter, detonate the solidified incendiary bomb it carries, and then create a chain reaction by burning at high temperatures.
】
If movement is blocked for more than 30 seconds, the self-destruction process will also be initiated.
If the code under its belly is not pressed within 60 seconds, it will explode on its own.
"No, it's going to explode. Take it away quickly."
The team leader felt as if his soul was about to leave his body when he saw it. He stepped forward to grab the robot beetle, turned around and ran back the way he came.
Within 30 seconds, the solid copper lock was violently pried open.
When I opened the door, I saw that in the wide and deep warehouse, rows of wooden shelves were piled with large and small explosives.
I don't know which row of shelves the blasting beetle had gotten into, and there was no way to find it in a short time.
However, with so many explosives weighing dozens of tons, the consequences if detonated would be disastrous.
"Bang!"
There was a moderate explosion in the tunnel outside, and the smoking robot beetle finally exploded. However, the team leader covered it with an alloy helmet and suppressed it, so the flames did not splash outward.
"There are only 30 seconds left, what should I do? Escape or not is a dead end."
At the entrance of the warehouse, the soldiers who witnessed the situation on both sides shouted desperately and helplessly.
They knew very well that if all the explosives with such a large yield were detonated, all the nearby tunnels would be sealed and the entire hill would be lowered.
By that time, the nearly 800 companions defending the hill not only suffered heavy casualties, but also had no way out to reach the main retreat channel.
The only chance of survival was to climb out through the dark window on the east side of the mountainside.
However, all the special forces of country Y are capable personnel, and it is extremely difficult to escape under their noses.
Unless the companions in the melee in the central area refuse to retreat, leaving them no time to care, there may still be a glimmer of hope.
Life and death are now.
The situation has become extremely critical.
"There's no way to escape. Go in and extinguish Randian. Maybe you can save yourself!"
The team leader discovered that the self-destruction power of this kind of robot beetle was not very powerful, and a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart.
"Ah, it's exploded, go in and put out the fire!"
The soldiers at the door rushed into the warehouse without their lives.
At this time, in the explosives warehouse, a ball of fire burst out from the hidden position of the "D-Bomb Beetle", and countless small and large fire points were sprayed in all directions.
If it touches wooden boards, plastics, cartons, etc., it will burn wildly.
The explosion point was under the wooden board. Although the splash range was not large, it ignited the explosive block at the bottom through the gap.
Once the temperature threshold is reached, no one can reverse it.
"Ah, it's on fire. Quickly remove the gunpowder and put out the sparks!"
A group of soldiers screamed in horror and hurriedly removed explosive blocks from a pile of wooden planks.
Unfortunately, solid fuel cannot be extinguished immediately. When the violent high temperature fluctuations spread, it is too late.
Because the time was too short and too tight, there was no chance to report to the superior.
The division commander Zulisu and the Marathon brigade commander, who had been anxiously waiting for news, did not know the real situation, and they did not expect that they had already sat on a ignited powder keg.
February 3, 1:35 pm.
In the small town of Sekma, in the pouring rain, the melee in the border area between the central and northern areas continued fiercely.
Alliance soldiers continued to pour out of the secret passage, and both sides had no way out. They fought fiercely, causing casualties on both sides.
The snipers of Country Y near the southern suburbs of the central area, together with a small number of security troops, could only temporarily turn back to attack the incoming Alliance soldiers in order to avoid being attacked from behind.
In the southern hills, oil bombs burned out their energy and quickly went out in the heavy rain.
Brigadier Ma Lazon sat directly in the dark window corridor, commanding the alliance soldiers to open all the dark windows and pour out firepower.
Country Y's previous charge troops were suppressed in temporary trenches. Without their own long-range support, they could only crawl on the ground and be beaten passively.
A dozen engineering soldiers and escorting special forces who rolled down to the foot of the mountain tried their best to use rocks, earth bags, and potholes to hide in blind spots to reduce the probability of being hit.
In the north of the town, Major Libera, who was commanding the battle, and Captain Shaher and Major Istan, who were in the underground tunnel, kept checking the time on their watches, anxiously waiting for the moment when the earth would shake.
The charge troops of Country Y, who knew the inside story, were also silently chanting the name of Allah, expecting exciting results to appear soon.
February 3, 1:38 pm.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
From the bottom of the hill, the long-awaited voice finally came out.
The extremely dull chain riots and violent turbulence of the entire mountain indicated that a huge disaster had occurred.
To the ears of division commander Su Lisu and Marathon brigade commander, it was like the god of death ringing the death knell.
It makes people feel despair and shudder.
The southern hill fell by about 10 meters as a result of the tremors. It was obvious that the tunnels in the mountain collapsed and the shortfall was filled.
"Haha, I finally succeeded, go for it!"
The Y country's charge troops at the foot of the mountain jumped up from the temporary trench and sprinted with all their strength towards the darkened window, which was mostly muted.
Taking advantage of the shock and confusion of the Union soldiers, they threw bombs inside as if for free and launched a counterattack and annihilation operation.
Near the north-facing dark window at the top of the mountain, Union soldiers discovered that the passage down the mountain had been blocked.
In a state of confusion, he did not care to shoot the enemies below, he hurriedly opened the emergency escape door and fled to the area under the jurisdiction of friendly forces in the west.
There were also many sentries in the dark windows facing the east and south. They found that the situation in the north was uncontrollable, and they also adopted an escape strategy.
The Marathon brigade commander was directing the battle from a dark window below the mountain. Hearing the bad news, he was heartbroken and refused to dodge the grenades thrown in. Finally, he died in the line of duty.
In the small town of Sekma, the alliance soldiers who were fighting in the central and northern areas caught a glimpse of the huge movement on the hill and roughly guessed that the arsenal had been blown up.
Realizing that there was no point in defending, they scattered and fled, those closest to the disguised exit hurriedly retreated.
Those who were a little further away knew that it was too late to return to the tunnel, so they broke out swarm westward.
After the fierce battle just now, the soldiers of country y suffered a lot of casualties.
Under the command of Major Libera, they simply gave up the westward pursuit and concentrated their efforts on following and killing the enemies who fled towards the tunnel.
"Boom!"
An alliance officer immediately triggered the self-destruction program of the camouflaged darkroom after escaping into the passage.
Together with dozens of his subordinates who had not yet followed, they blocked the exit, which was equivalent to ruining the lives of their companions.
"I surrender!"
The remaining dozens of alliance soldiers, facing the special forces pursuing them from all directions, were driven by the desire to survive and immediately put down their weapons and raised their hands and shouted.
"Stop the attack, collect the weapons, and detain the prisoners."
Major Libera glanced at the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft flying in the sky and looked at the sky beyond the clouds. He was worried that the scene would be filmed, so he reacted quickly.
"Ah, this..."
The special forces who raised their guns and started to clear the scene heard the loud orders from their commanders on the loudspeaker and quickly stopped the continuous shooting. They asked each other with puzzled faces, but they didn't know the reason.
Underground passages, areas occupied by special forces.
Shaher punched the palm, excited, and a heroic aura unique to middle-aged people emerged spontaneously.
After the vibration, Major Eastan ordered the excavation at full speed to open the closed passage with the middle section within half an hour;
At the same time, he ordered all chemical defense soldiers to be on standby and ready to attack at any time.
In the middle area, the alliance garrison division headquarters.
Su Lisu knew that the situation was over and there was no way to save the situation. He was worried that the retreat channel with its back open and its front end under the creek would be flooded and would be killed by a flank attack from both ends, so he made a decision quickly.
Prioritize escaping and save more than 1,500 subordinates.
Because, just an hour ago, the frontline headquarters conveyed an order that strategic supplies and artillery bombing would arrive at the same time at 3 p.m.
He completely lost the courage and opportunity for a head-on confrontation, and running away became his only option.
As for the Marathon brigade commander, the passage was basically destroyed and there was no way to rescue him, so he had to resign himself to fate.
By the time the fiery brigade commander returned to the retreat channel with the remaining defeated soldiers, Zurich had already led his men to leave first, leaving Chief of Staff Ben Laming behind to take over.
After confirming that all personnel were evacuated, Bin Laming ordered dozens of soldiers at the rear to open the backup water pipe and start filling the channel with water.
Then he ran west for a distance, activated the remote control device, and destroyed a large section of the retreat passage behind him, preventing his opponent from pursuing him.
At the same time, there was a plan to turn the abandoned tunnel into an underground country.
2:15 p.m.
Shaher received the good news and appeared on the ground in Sekma Town for the first time.
After listening to Major Libera's brief narration and some praise, he immediately started a new defense arrangement and made specific requirements.
At the same time that Bin Lamin released water to blow up the hole and left, Major Eastan also opened a passage diagonally inserted into the central area.
Under the guidance of the only combat robot, dozens of heavily armed chemical defense soldiers pushed CO high-pressure spray guns and sprayed them while searching.
"Water, there is water, flowing towards us."
A soldier made a gesture and pointed to his feet.
"Find the source and block it, quickly."
The team leader immediately directed four of them to search in the opposite direction along the direction of the water flow.
Ten minutes later, when they arrived at the opponent's retreat channel, they found that the water had risen to their chests.
The water pipe as thick as a bowl is continuously spraying out a large jet of water.
The stopper is gone, and a soldier can only insert his hand into the circular tube to temporarily reduce the flow of water.
The other three people started looking for blockages.
After working hard for half an hour, it was finally finished by blocking the source of the creek's water inlet.
