The first moment Gou Xiong spoke, Yang Jie was shocked when he noticed the drastic change in his expression. He immediately lay down and grabbed the engine tightly.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Jie heard bullets whizzing past him, and the continuous gunfire that could only be emitted by a machine gun sounded behind him.
The windshield in front of the car was not broken into pieces after being hit by bullets. It had large cracks and clung to the window frame tenaciously. However, glass shards from the holes were scattered everywhere. Fortunately, Yang Jie was not scratched.
Thankfully, the machine gun's accuracy seems to be poor.
The user was obviously a novice. He kept pressing the trigger, but stopped shooting after two or three breaths. Most of the bullets did not hit the off-road vehicle, but only stirred up patches of dust on the sand.
The Akainu Team's Ford off-road vehicle was modified. The added 10mm homogeneous steel plate effectively withstood the fire of the squad machine gun and did not cause substantial damage to the off-road vehicle.
"Bang, bang" sounded twice, and while the machine gun was reloading, Gou Xiong pushed the broken windshield out of the window frame with two slaps, and pulled Yang Jie back to the passenger seat.
Yang Jie, who was still in shock, gasped and checked up and down. After making sure that he was not hit, he felt a little relieved. He raised his head and saw the culprit who almost killed him.
On the flat ground, Yang Jie saw a sand-colored heavy-duty off-road vehicle driving in the distance. The squad machine gun with a gun shield on the roof was pointing at him. The figure operating the machine gun was changing the ammunition belt for the machine gun.
[Modified armored vehicle]
[An armored off-road vehicle modified based on the POLARIS large UTV chassis, combined with the retired JLTV (universal type) body, and equipped with a high-horsepower engine. The armor of the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle provides it with good protection, and the all-terrain vehicle chassis and strong power ensure that it can travel on any road condition. 】
[Current condition of equipment: General (modified) (suspension system load is too large)]
[Repair value: average]
"What the hell!"
Gou Xiong cursed angrily, then pressed his throat microphone and said:
"Osprey, get rid of that car!"
Not long after Gou Xiong finished speaking, when the other side changed the bullet chain again and was ready to shoot, there was another "bang!" sound from the roof of the car.
Then, Yang Jie saw the figure of the man in the armored vehicle trembling, leaning against one end of the roof of the vehicle.
The Osprey continued to fire on the roof of the car. On the other side, the body that was killed first was pushed out of the car by his companions. The body rolled on the sand for a few times and then stopped. The man who took over the machine gun again did not dare to show his head again and raised his hand. A machine gun was fired at the Ford car indiscriminately.
"I need a can opener."
After Gou Xiong heard Osprey's cool voice in his headphones, he patted Yang Jie on the shoulder, pointed to the back seat and said:
"Go get the electromagnetic rifle under the back seat to Osprey!"
Yang Jie nodded, leaned back, grabbed the buckle under the car seat with both hands, and opened the middle part of the back seat with force. He saw a completely black rifle with a weird shape but extremely in line with Yang Jie's aesthetics. .
The overall gun body is very compact and not as slender as ordinary rifles. Instead, it feels a little thick. Under the hollow handguard are tightly wound circles of silver-white metal coils.
[QBD-37 electromagnetic rifle]
[The standard rifle designed and manufactured by NORINCO is specially used to deal with light protection targets such as exoskeleton armor and ultra-light armor. As the army retreated after the war, a small amount was left in the wasteland.
Due to its strong penetrating power and good reliability, many people affectionately call it the "can opener". 】
[Current condition of the equipment: Good (proper maintenance) (battery is slightly aged)]
[Repair value: higher]
After a brief glance, Yang Jie patted the roof of the car, and then the silver-gray metal palm reached into the car and pulled the electromagnetic rifle onto the roof.
"puff!"
After returning to zero and measuring the range, the electromagnetic rifle started shooting. The sound of the gunfire was much smaller than that of a gunpowder rifle, but it was much more powerful.
Through the telescope that Gou Xiong lent him, Yang Jie clearly saw a metal rod as thick as a finger embedded in the body of the sand-colored armored vehicle.
But that's all.
The bullet fired by the electromagnetic rifle did not completely penetrate the armor. A small half of the metal rod was exposed outside the steel plate and could not continue to move forward.
At the same time, the machine gun on the sand-colored armored vehicle opened fire again.
Although the shooting accuracy this time was not as good as last time, the bullets flying everywhere still forced everyone back into the car, lowering their heads and hiding in the car body to avoid being hit by stray bullets.
"How come one damn bad thing happens one after another!"
The switchblade huddled under the car body, cursing to vent his emotions while changing the magazine. While the machine gun was reloading, he leaned out and killed two Desert Locusts who were almost out of pursuit.
"A few words from you would be better than anything else!"
The bear lowered his body and turned back to curse.
"Can you blame me?"
Switchblade screamed at the top of his lungs:
"I didn't say a single unnecessary word before this turtle shell appeared!"
Akainu ignored the quarrel between the two, looked at Osprey jumping off the roof of the car and asked:
"Is there no way to solve it?"
"The bullet doesn't penetrate enough."
Osprey shook his head. Even though he withstood two rounds of fire on the roof of the car, Osprey's expression remained calm, and there was no trace of panic or fear in his jewel-like blue eyes.
“We do not have supporting four-stage self-sharpening armor-piercing ammunition.
If it's that kind of bullet, it should be able to penetrate it. "
Ospreay's words made Akainu smile bitterly. Since no one could make self-sharpening bullets in the wasteland, the bullets left before the war were scarce and expensive.
In order to save costs, they did not even consider purchasing. The depleted uranium armor-piercing bullets that could be replaced were too radioactive, and they did not dare to use them at all.
So when faced with the current situation, the team was almost helpless.
If he had known he would encounter this thing, Akainu would have gritted his teeth and bought a box of self-sharpening bullets even if he had to empty his pockets.
"not good!"
Akainu was still thinking about how to deal with regret and self-blame. Xiong raised his head and observed it before shouting:
"These bastards are coming closer!"
In the distance, the sand-colored armored vehicle seemed to realize that random shooting from a long distance did not pose a substantial threat to the Ford off-road vehicle, so it slowed down and gradually closed the distance with the Akainu team.
At the same time, the third round of strafing was started. Although the accuracy was still insufficient, the clanking sound of bullets hitting the off-road vehicle was obviously increased.
There are interceptions in front and pursuers behind. If you don't make a decision, once the desert locusts catch up behind you and cooperate with the armored vehicles, you will really be unable to escape!
"We can't wait any longer!"
When the shooting stopped, Akainu stuck his head out to take a look and made a decision:
"Bear, turn! Keep a distance from the armored vehicles, don't let us fall into the encirclement!"
"No! Drive over!"
Just after Akainu made up his mind, a voice of opposition suddenly sounded. At this time, Yang Jie's face was pale, his hair was wet with sweat as if washed with water, and he was breathing heavily, as if he had just performed a strenuous exercise.
"Bear, come closer, I have an idea!"
A glimmer of light flashed in Yang Jie's eyes, which was Akainu's confidence that he didn't know where it came from.
“I’m an engineer and I know that car!
I know where its weak point is! "
