46: Who said that being tanky doesn’t have a good point? (Please add to your collection)
"YES! Finally destroyed it!"
Li Xiao excitedly watched the durability in the life pool increase by 50,000 points. This battle vehicle's durability was actually 20,000 points higher than that of an armored personnel carrier.
Looking at the meng hu off-road vehicle's durability, which had been reduced by 80,000 points by the two battle vehicles, Li Xiao felt a pang of heartache.
Fortunately, 50,000 durability points were added in time, so Li Xiao didn't suffer too much of a loss.
"Keep pushing! Destroy the other one too!"
Yan Yizhou, having destroyed one battle vehicle and its five occupants, was directly promoted to the rank of Corporal. The rapid increase in experience made him incredibly excited, and he repeatedly urged Di Yun to charge.
Li Xiao, at this moment, also added another 80,000 durability points to the meng hu off-road vehicle. This battle vehicle's durability limit had now surged to 200,000, and its actual health had recovered to 150,000 points.
"Company Commander! That off-road vehicle is coming back! They still have anti-materiel sniper rifles!"
The communicator inside the escaping battle vehicle reported the situation in a panic, and the Captain had already seen the battle vehicle exploding and catching fire.
At this point, the threat in the forest was very small for them. He quickly recalled the forty-man reconnaissance team that had dismounted earlier to surround the meng hu off-road vehicle.
Immediately, light and heavy machine guns and rockets all targeted Di Yun and his team. A single vehicle attracted the firepower of the entire armored company.
At this time, Leng He no longer cared about the dense gunfire and prioritized firing at the machine gun positions of all armored vehicles to reduce the enemy's output.
And Yan Yizhou continued to mindlessly output damage to the remaining battle vehicle.
However, being outnumbered, even with a lot of durability, the off-road vehicle couldn't withstand the heavy firepower of a company. Its durability quickly dropped below 100,000, and it was still losing thousands of points per second.
Leng He was also targeted, his health dropping to 5,000 points. He could only duck his head and fire blindly, whether he hit or not was entirely up to fate.
Fortunately, Zhao Feipeng and his team finally arrived. Although their rifle bullets caused very little damage to armored vehicles, they had no problem hitting the gunners in the armored vehicle's machine gun positions.
The situation on the battlefield suddenly changed. The enemy machine gunners were suppressed, giving Leng He room to output damage.
At the same time, the mysterious unit that had been suppressed in the forest for a long time also rushed to the roadside. Under the three-sided firepower, it was the two Black Hawk Empire military off-road vehicles that were destroyed first.
Following closely behind was the remaining M3 Cavalry Armored Fighting Vehicle. When that vehicle exploded, Li Xiao added another 50,000 durability points to the off-road vehicle.
The current situation was that over a hundred rifles on the periphery were attacking the remaining seven armored personnel carriers and one command vehicle. The Empire troops' machine gunners, standing on top of the armored vehicles, were hit by dozens of bullets from two directions every second, making it impossible for them to aim and shoot; they could only return fire blindly.
But even if they could hit the scattered soldiers around them, they couldn't suppress the meng hu off-road vehicle. Focusing fire on the meng hu off-road vehicle still couldn't destroy it, and the infantry didn't dare to open the doors and dismount to intercept. Each of their vehicles only had six or seven people left, with a total force of less than two platoons.
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
The Captain reluctantly gave the order to retreat. The primary target, the meng hu off-road vehicle, couldn't be destroyed, and their armored vehicles' health was, on average, consumed to below sixty percent. If they didn't retreat now, they would all be wiped out here.
Li Xiao saw the enemy's command vehicle starting to turn around and quickly shouted into his headset, "Di Yun, charge! Take out the command vehicle first!"
Hearing the order, Di Yun ignored the armored vehicle that was about to explode in front of him, shifted gears, and swerved.
Leng He also heard the order through his headset, and his heavy machine gun rattled, frantically spewing bullets. Yan Yizhou, after destroying two battle vehicles, only had a dozen or so bullets left, and he only opened fire when Di Yun closed in to a distance of tens of meters.
Bang!
12.7mm armor-piercing incendiary rounds continuously struck the rear door, leaving circular cracks. Every bullet sent shivers down one's spine.
The Captain, drenched in sweat, picked up the walkie-talkie and roared, "Quick! Stop that off-road vehicle!"
Two armored personnel carriers, which had just started moving behind the command vehicle, heard the order and quickly blocked both lanes. Di Yun was only two seconds away from overtaking them.
Seeing the command vehicle about to slip away right under their noses, Leng He and Yan Yizhou vented their anger on these two damaged armored vehicles.
Seeing that the vehicles were about to explode, the soldiers inside both vehicles scrambled out through the rear doors.
Before they could run away, two other infantrymen in the vehicle stuck their heads out of the windows and swept with gunfire; not a single one escaped.
At the same time, Zhao Feipeng and the friendly forces in the forest also rushed out.
The remaining armored vehicles almost floored their accelerators, ignoring the flying bullets, and forcefully crashed through the wreckage of two scrapped armored vehicles to escape.
Originally, the off-road vehicle was blocked by the armored vehicles, and its horsepower was too low, leaving Di Yun at a loss. But now, this actually helped him greatly.
With a roar of the engine, the vehicle speed instantly rose to 100 kilometers per hour, and the command vehicle, which hadn't gone far, was caught up to again.
The Captain, who had just relaxed, discovered that the damned off-road vehicle had caught up again, and his composure instantly shattered.
"Block him on the two-way road!"
However, it was easier said than done. Armored vehicles were not as flexible as off-road vehicles. The off-road vehicle weaved left and right, overtook the armored vehicles attempting to block its path, and drove alongside the command vehicle.
The command vehicle, due to carrying a lot of communication equipment, did not have vehicle-mounted weapons on its top, only rifle firing ports on its sides and rear.
But the rifles extended by the two soldiers only caused minor damage to the off-road vehicle, while Leng He, at this moment, loaded his last 500-round ammunition box and fiercely sprayed the command vehicle.
In a matter of tens of seconds, Yan Yizhou fired his last two armor-piercing rounds, and the Captain and his communicator perished with the command vehicle in despair.
The five half-damaged armored personnel carriers behind, seeing the command vehicle explode, immediately panicked and scrambled to escape.
Di Yun did not slow down, maintaining a certain distance from these armored vehicles, but to save their lives, the soldiers inside these five armored vehicles desperately operated their heavy machine guns to exchange fire with Leng He.
Leng He had little health left, and his bullets quickly ran out. Finally, after firing his last bullet, he destroyed one of the armored personnel carriers.
Seeing this situation, Di Yun knew it was impossible to stop the remaining enemies, so he simply floored the accelerator and turned into the dirt road leading to the Transit Yard.
The Black Hawk Unit naturally couldn't pursue Di Yun anymore. They all accelerated, rushed through the intersection, and fled towards Xi City.
Li Xiao stepped onto the curb, looking at the chaotic battlefield and the corpses of the Black Hawk Unit, feeling very happy. This wave was simply a huge profit.
He glanced at the friendly forces at the other end of the road who were cleaning up the battlefield. These people were quite impolite; they had already started looting before he even spoke.
So, he walked over. This suddenly appearing unit numbered about a company, and their uniforms were the combat uniforms of the Tianyu Republic.
Seeing Li Xiao walk over, a dark-skinned, handsome, and tall man also walked out from the crowd of the opposing side.
