Outside the battery factory.
Gunshots rang out, and bullets flew freely in the street.
Suddenly, a predator came out of the bunker and aimed the Iron Fist rocket launcher on his shoulder at the gate of the battery factory.
Although he was soon under concentrated fire, he still pulled the trigger.
"RPg!"
Makabazi shouted and rushed to the side.
Almost at the moment when the voice fell, a rocket whizzed through the street and hit the outer wall of the battery factory at an angle.
The fire exploded, and the concrete fragments flew everywhere, revealing a large piece of steel bar.
A player leaning against the wall was caught off guard and fell to the ground after being shot by the bullet. The player squatting next to him immediately grabbed his collar and dragged him back to the bunker under the cover of other team members.
Sporadic flames burned on the street outside the battery factory.
A pickup truck with welded steel plates broke down in the middle of the road. The steel plate on the front of the car was dented, and antifreeze flowed out from the gap of the hood and spilled all over the ground.
The predator sitting in the driver's seat was shattered like the bulletproof plate that was blown open, and there was no intact flesh on his body. However, the fixed machine gun behind the car was intact and continued to fire wildly at the battery factory, continuing to vent firepower.
"Their firepower is too strong!" The construction site boy and the brick of the power system tried to set up a light machine gun to fight back, but they were pushed back before they showed their heads.
The predator holding a rifle stuck to both sides of the street and pressed towards the battery factory.
Under the suppression of machine gun firepower, Edgewater had to withdraw the team members who had just been shot back to the battery factory and shrink the defense line.
Just one round of exchange of fire.
They lost three team members, and there were seven people left in Team B!
Although the looters also suffered five casualties, compared to the fierce offensive, these casualties seemed insignificant.
"Fuck!"
Leaning against the back of the bunker, Bianbianhuashui changed the magazine while cursing, and glanced at the machine gun pickup truck that was stranded in the middle of the road.
That bullet didn't blow up the car!
How thick must their fuel tank be? !
Or is it that I am too shameless? ?
"We have to find a way to kill their machine guns!"
Seeing the captain looking at him, the construction site boy and brick holding a light machine gun shouted loudly: "Where is the sniper! Don't aim at it, you pick someone!"
The debt-ridden man was so angry that his nose was crooked: "There is a hammer sniper, a semi-automatic sniper is useless! I drew the scale lines of the scope myself!"
Construction site boy and brick: "Brother Shui! What should we do now!"
Bianbianhuashui looked at the other team next to him.
"Do you still have a barrel?"
Drum shampooer: "There's only one left!"
Bianbianhuashui gritted his teeth and was about to order the barrel to shoot it down, when Makabazi's cry suddenly came from the side.
"Wait, don't worry, use this!"
After saying that, regardless of the bullets whizzing behind him, Makabazi ran back and quickly took out a barrel with a caliber larger than his face from the truck.
To be precise, this should not be considered a barrel, but more like a portable rocket nest!
There are 12 steel pipes inserted in the rocket nest, each about 1100mm long and 20mm in diameter, and all the steel pipes are inserted with a rocket weighing more than one pound!
Seeing this thing, Bianbianhuashui was shocked.
"Fuck, what is this?!"
"Jab! Get out of the way!"
As he said that, Makabazi excitedly pulled the trigger.
I saw the twelve steel pipes, all emitting flames and thick smoke! Twelve thin rockets drew a parabola, covering the center of the street in a cone.
To be honest, this thing has no accuracy.
But in the face of absolute numbers, accuracy is no longer important!
Half of the street covered by rockets exploded in flames in an instant, and at least three rockets hit the truck within three meters, and one of them directly hit the steel plate in front of the fixed machine gun!
The 144gT EnT has a small amount of explosives, but its power is enough to rival 2~3 grenades.
The machine gunner standing on the gun position was instantly blown to pieces and fell outside the truck and stopped moving.
The machine gun stopped firing instantly.
The players and survivors in the factory were much less stressed!
Makabazi, who threw away the rocket launcher, excitedly punched, shouted "Nice", picked up the rifle again and ran behind the bunker.
Including Lu Bei from the guard team, and several local survivors who fought side by side with the players, they were completely dumbfounded.
What kind of weapon is this? !
It's quite powerful.
The construction site boy and Zhuan seized the opportunity, set up a light machine gun, pulled the trigger and fired at the street, and the predators' offensive was instantly repelled.
The manager had allocated him 200 rounds of bullets, and now there were just over 100 left. If he used them sparingly, he should be able to hold on for a while.
Looking at Makabazi who ran to squat next to him, Bianbianhuashui's eyes almost popped out.
"Fuck? That thing is a mosquito rocket?"
Makabazi said with a grin.
"20mm twelve-barreled jab! Awesome? I bought it from the market for 20 silver coins."
Bianbianhuashui: "20 silver coins?! Awesome! Do you have more?"
This is too cheap!
Makabazi shook his head: "It's gone! This thing is disposable, and it is said to cost 200 silver! After Mosquito gave it to me, he said that he would never make such a low-cost weapon again!"
Edge paddling: "..."
The predators squatting on the street were all stunned by the rocket. Obviously, they didn't expect that the other side had such a powerful killer.
However, the deterrence of the rocket did not last long.
Under the shouting of the centurion, someone quickly reacted and rushed to the machine gun pickup under the cover of his teammates to replace the dead machine gunner.
However, soon, the predator jumped off the car with a curse, and ran to the ruins on the side.
Seeing this scene, the debt-ridden big eyes holding a semi-automatic rifle shouted excitedly.
"Their machine gun is broken!"
"I see! Brothers hold on, victory is just around the corner"
The words on his lips were only half said, and the face of the edge of the water turned black.
The other players around him were the same. Before they had time to be happy for a while, they saw a pickup truck with welded steel plates appear at the end of the street, and parked directly behind the original scrapped pickup truck, using its wreckage as a cover to hide the body and the driver's seat.
The fixed machine gun once again vented its firepower, three shots at a time, sweeping towards the players' cover.
Caught off guard, the construction site boy holding the light machine gun and the brick were shot to death, and finally got rid of the fire suppression, and the predators began to move forward again.
Feeling the bullets whizzing overhead, the edge of the water couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Damn planning!
Targeted again!
"How many predators did this guy swipe?!"
Debt Big Eyes shouted.
"At least 4 teams! I heard that the group of predators in the experimental base seemed to have only three or four armored pickup trucks in total!"
"Fuck! Only half of them are here!?"
At this time, another team of players shouted from behind.
"They went around the back of the factory!"
At the same time, gunshots came from the south side of the rear of the factory. Those predators who went around from the front battlefield to the back had a fierce exchange of fire with Group A.
Dragging the legion-style light machine gun from the bodies of the construction site boy and the brick, the debt-eye couldn't help but say.
"Why don't we charge? There might be hope if we charge! If they surround us, we'll be finished!"
"Charging now is equivalent to giving away heads! Their machine guns are set up outside!"
Edgewater gritted his teeth, installed a bayonet on the rifle, and shouted loudly.
"Prepare to abandon the wall, we will retreat to the factory building later!"
To be honest, this is not a good idea.
The more surrounded they are, the more they should break out. Only by fighting can they open up the situation. Being trapped behind the bunkers will only make them be surrounded.
These looters are very smart. They are even using the tactics they used before, using frontal firepower to contain and sending a team of people to attack from the side.
If there were more people, Edgewater would choose to let a team of people fight out from the firepower gap and find a way to get behind the machine gun pickup.
But now, he has no better way.
It is different from the battle last night.
Although it was also a situation of winning more with fewer people, they only needed to hold on at that time, even if there was only one person left at the end, it would be considered a victory.
And now, there are more than a hundred villagers behind him!
"Fuck!"
Cursing, Edgewater shouted at the top of his voice.
"Group A, cover, Group B, retreat to the factory!"
"Received!"
Without a radio, command can only be done by shouting and whistling.
Fortunately, all the players here are veterans, and they cooperate well. They can understand what the other party wants to express with just a glance and a few simple gestures.
The players on the wall retreated in an orderly manner, retreating into the factory building of Team B, and then covering Team A to evacuate.
The looters saw the survivors on the wall retreating, but they did not chase them immediately. Instead, they cautiously sent a few people forward to find out the situation inside the factory.
Taking advantage of the short respite, Edgepad gathered the two teams together and counted the casualties.
Of the two teams of ten, Team A was in a slightly more optimistic situation, with four people reduced. Team B, which had followed him out earlier, was in a more miserable situation, with only four people left, a full 60% reduction!
Most of the survivors were injured.
However, even so, no one was afraid!
"Each person will be given 20 rounds of ammunition, so everyone should distribute the bullets evenly. Take off all the VMs and gather them together. There are positioning on them, and our people will find them for us."
Taking a deep breath, the old man on the edge looked around at the players standing in front of him and said in a sonorous tone.
"This is our last line of defense!"
"Hold it!"
"Until the last person!"
In response to him, there were roars and shouts of high fighting spirit and even excitement.
"Roar!"
"Ahhh!"
"Decisive battle!"
Outside the factory, the looters have surrounded this place.
The young guard took the survivors in the factory and retreated to the warehouse behind the factory.
The area of hundreds of square meters is enough to squeeze together. There is only a row of ventilation holes connecting it to the outside world, except for a door.
If they who are guarding outside successfully block the attack of the looters, then everyone here can survive.
If they fail...
They will die anyway, and there is no way to escape anywhere else.
The transfer was completed quickly.
However, there were still ten survivors who took the initiative to stay, picked up the only iron rifle and shotgun, and prepared to fight side by side with them.
However, Bianbianhuashui did not have much hope for their combat effectiveness. After all, whether in terms of equipment or combat literacy, they were far inferior to the cunning hungry wolves outside.
Using the shortest language possible, Bianbianhuashui asked the guard nP to take them to guard the second line of defense to prevent them from not understanding the command in front and making trouble.
All the deployments were completed quickly, and the footsteps and chattering shouts outside were getting closer and closer.
The ring of the smoke bomb was pulled open, and Bianbianhuashui and other players threw it out together, throwing the smoke bomb on the open space of the factory.
The factory was soon filled with smoke.
Almost at the same time, the predator with a rifle rushed in.
Edgepad roared, threw out the burning Molotov cocktail, grabbed the assault rifle hanging on his chest, and leaned out of the bunker to fire.
"Die for me!"
...
Outside the factory.
Listening to the gunshots coming from the battery factory, the centurion Beaver, who was in charge of commanding this operation, felt extremely heavy.
This should have been a textbook raid.
According to the plan, they would end the battle within five minutes, then pack up the spoils in twenty minutes, and retreat like the wind before the enemy reinforcements arrived.
However, no one expected...
These survivors held them back for a full half an hour!
The original raid turned into a brutal assault.
He couldn't understand why these survivors were so tenacious. He had clearly left them two escape routes, as long as they went east or west.
However, they didn't seem to have considered escaping at all, so many of his deployments were not used at all.
What Beaver couldn't understand the most was that he had gathered two armored pickup trucks and fifty troops, and even broke through the factory wall and entered the factory.
But those people still didn't surrender.
In fact, the really brutal battle had just begun!
The looters with broken arms wailed in pain and were dragged out of the factory by his comrades.
Regardless of the expression on his face that was twisted by pain, Beaver strode forward, grabbed his collar and asked.
"What's the situation inside? Why haven't they been dealt with yet!"
The wounded man couldn't speak because of the pain.
The looters who dragged him out were not seriously injured, but their frightened expressions showed that they were obviously scared out of their wits.
No matter how he asked, he kept repeating one sentence incoherently.
"Mad men! Those people are a bunch of crazy men!"
Beaver frowned.
The surroundings were full of wailing wounded.
Injured looters were constantly carried out of the factory.
10 people...
20 people...
Explosions and gunshots continued.
Even though their people had rushed in countless times, they could not completely occupy the entire factory.
The people guarding inside were like crazy, and they seemed not afraid of death at all.
Even if they were shot several times, they would drag someone down with them before they died.
After learning about the battle situation in front from one of his men, Beaver felt his fingers cold and forgot to breathe for a while.
What kind of monster was he fighting?
At this time, a looter ran over from behind.
"Boss! Lord Steel Teeth asked us to retreat!"
"Retreat?!"
Beaver stared at him in disbelief, his pupils wide open and bloodshot, "We are about to attack! You come and tell me to retreat now!"
The looter, whose collar was grabbed, had a trace of panic on his face and said tremblingly.
"This is Lord Steel Teeth's order... The enemy's reinforcements are approaching and will arrive in 10 minutes at the fastest."
The looting has failed.
Even if they completely captured the factory, the remaining time would not be enough for them to retreat with supplies, and they would instead be surrounded by the enemy's positive force.
An armored pickup truck, 27 bodies, countless injured... They have already paid too many casualties in this battle!
Beaver gritted his teeth, he was unwilling.
Even if he couldn't take anything away, even if he just dug out the intestines of these people and hung them on the wall, it would make him feel better than just withdrawing like that!
However, he quickly calmed down.
The tribe allowed failure, but not disobedience.
If he refused to follow the order, even if he paid a heavy price to take down this place, he would be waiting for a bullet when he returned.
Beaver gritted his teeth and looked at the factory with thick smoke and the messy open space in front of the factory.
Even though he was reluctant, he finally gave the order.
"Retreat!"
...
Not long after the explosion sounded.
Commander Quanshui received the task of reinforcing the battery factory and immediately rushed over with his team members.
He was probably the first batch of reinforcements to arrive here.
However, when he arrived, he found that the battle here was over.
His mood sank to the bottom, he whispered, and gestured to his teammates, indicating that they should disperse and approach.
"I hope we are not too late..."
The factory area was filled with the smell of blood and burnt barbecue.
Just after crossing the factory gate, Commander Quanshui soon saw a bloody corpse not far from the door.
There was no VM on his half arm, probably because he took it off and put it together with his teammates. His lower body could not be found, but his expression was very peaceful.
Unable to confirm his identity, Quanshui felt heavy-hearted and walked in quickly.
Following the traces of the battle, he explored the warehouse behind the factory. He saw a bloody man at the half-open warehouse door.
His two legs were gone, and two white bones could even be seen under the bloody half of his pants, but he still held a rifle in his hand, one eye was half-closed, and the other eye could not be opened. I don't know if it was scratched by shrapnel or stuck by blood.
Quanshui didn't recognize who he was for a while, and hurriedly walked forward.
"Brother, are you okay?"
He regretted it as soon as he said it.
That can't be considered fine.
He coughed up a mouthful of blood, and seeing that it was a friendly army, Bianbianhuashui smiled.
"What can happen... It's just that the network connection is too damn bad. I've been offline twice."
"Wait a minute, I have a bandage here."
Bianbianhuashui quickly stopped him.
"Don't! My injury is not a minor one, it's a waste to use it!"
Commander of the fountain: "Then you won't save the game?"
"Ah, it's all floating clouds," the old man sighed and said helplessly, "and I don't think a bundle of bandages can make me survive, you might as well find a place to help me..."
Just as he was about to ask the fountain to help him, his sight suddenly fell behind the crack of the warehouse door, and he saw a pair of uneasy eyes staring at him.
This game is sometimes a bit redundant.
Especially those NPCs, they are so much like people.
So much so that he always feels inexplicably involved in inexplicable places.
Speaking of which...
There's smoke everywhere here.
It's exactly like a fire scene.
His Adam's apple moved, and Bian looked at Quanshui.
"Let's go to another place."
Quanshui immediately understood what he meant and nodded solemnly.
"Okay, I'll take you out."
Bianshui laughed and cursed, and put his hand on his exoskeleton.
"Don't be so serious... Damn, it makes me look like I'm really dead."
We are all good brothers of 50 yuan.
Three days later, I'll be a hero again.
Die early and die early.
If he wasn't worried that the predators hadn't left yet, he would have gone down long ago.
...
Outpost.
Through the Hummingbird drone, Chu Guang had a panoramic view of the tragedy in the battery factory.
The survivors have evacuated from the factory, and the evacuation work continues with the help of the reinforcement players.
According to the battle report sent back from the front, the two teams responsible for the evacuation plan of the survivors of the battery factory, a total of 20 players, were all killed!
The looters besieging the battery factory had five teams of ten people, in addition to two armored pickup trucks carrying fixed machine guns.
After leaving nearly 30 bodies, these looters occupied the factory for a time, but were soon bravely repelled by the players in the factory.
"They are a group of real warriors." Liu Ding held his breath and said slowly.
"Yes." Chu Guang, who was wearing power armor, nodded lightly, his eyes fixed on the tactical eyepiece, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
Liu Ding looked at Chu Guang and advised seriously.
"My lord, their people have suffered heavy casualties, we should now pursue them!"
"The looters stationed at the experimental base lack supplies. We only need to surround them on the high ground. At most one week, they will surrender!"
Chu Guang nodded.
"Well, this is indeed a good idea, but the other side also thinks so."
Liu Ding was slightly stunned and did not react for a while.
Chu Guang paused for a moment and then continued.
"The predators stationed at the Zhongzhou Space Ecological Experimental Base are retreating. They are heading towards Tianshui City."
Just half a minute ago, Chu Guang received a report from the Niu Ma Squad.
The predators stationed at the Zhongzhou Experimental Base began to retreat northward.
To be honest, this was also within Chu Guang's expectations, otherwise he would not have sent the Niu Ma Squad to take a look.
In just one day, the two battles in the morning and afternoon directly reduced the number of predators by 20%. Not only did they not grab any supplies, but they also lost an armored pickup truck.
It's a pity that there is no vehicle that can move quickly.
Otherwise, this is a good time to pursue.
Chu Guang secretly said it was a pity.
However, it is worth being happy that this group of predators chose to withdraw, presumably because there are no reinforcements available, and they probably won't come back for a while.
They need to regroup and formulate a new invasion plan.
And on their side, they can also buy some breathing time.
Hearing the manager say that the group of predators had withdrawn, Liu Ding's face was full of surprise, and then a trace of joy appeared.
"They withdrew?! That's great!"
Chu Guang glanced at him.
"Don't be too happy too early, at most we have pulled out a tooth of the jackal, they will come back, and they will definitely come back."
Fighting is to open up space for development.
And the latter is the key to solving all problems.
A large wave of refugees is approaching, and their number is several times that of those stationed outside Changjiu Farm.
Eating, drinking, defecating, urinating, housing and keeping warm for these people will be a big problem.
After the first batch of survivors are settled, the evacuation of the second batch of survivors can begin.
There are still a lot of troubles waiting for Chu Guang to solve.
Especially the most critical thing at the moment is...
His "silver coins" are running out
