Catastrophe

The night was drowsy, and the street lights on the side of the road were already on.

On the street outside the Cross River Bridge in Xicheng District, with the broadcast broadcast on a loop, the residents living near the river began to panic and evacuate to the distance. The traffic flow on the main road was rolling, and the connected lights looked like a long dragon.

"Squeak!"

After several military vehicles parked in the open space at the bridge head, the officers at the grass-roots level began to wave their hands continuously: "Get off! Assemble in line!"

"Load the bullets! Get ready for battle!"

"Reconnaissance class! Go to the bridge!"

"Artillery company, look for positions and prepare to provide fire cover!"

"Smoke car! Where is the smoke car?"

"Swimming troops! Fill rubber boats!"

"Lights out!"

"...!"

For a time, the open space at the bridge head roared one after another, all the military vehicles on the street turned off their lights, and countless figures began to get busy in the falling night.

Five minutes later, the soldiers of the reconnaissance squad who were the first to complete the preparations had already walked onto the bridge and began to walk slowly on the bridge with the cover of the Geely suit, preparing for reconnaissance and explosive demolition missions.

Two kilometers away from the bridge deck, Kang Wannian's tent at the command post had been propped up again, and the big screen was also playing the picture transmitted from the front through the wired probe.

Kang Wannian was staring at the image on the big screen in front of him, with a lit cigarette in his hand, the ash had been burning for a long time.

With the report of the reconnaissance team going to the bridge from the walkie-talkie on the side, Kang Wannian moved his body, and the long soot also broke: "The situation is not right, it's too quiet on this bridge! We have What deployment?"

The combat staff on the edge of the sand table in the back straightened his chest and responded: "The reconnaissance team will go to the bridge first to confirm the condition of the bridge deck. The vanguard battalion is ready to attack. Once it is confirmed that the bridge deck can move forward, it will launch an all-out attack from the bridge to contain it. After the main force of the rebels, the Swimming Troops crossed the river in concealment under the bridge, and used a small group of elite troops to harass the enemy's rear, creating favorable conditions for the general attack."

Kang Wannian shook his head solemnly: "It's too simple, this tactic is too simple! What about logistical support and artillery support?"

The combat staff officer also showed a pessimistic look: "Commander, we moved our troops to non-security areas before, the original intention was to go out of the city to suppress bandits, so we brought all equipment suitable for combat in outer urban areas and desert areas, and heavy firepower was not equipped at all. How much, so the artillery support that can be provided is very limited, there is only one artillery battalion, and one Spitfire battalion, as well as four missile vehicles and twelve ultra-short-range missiles! At present, we have split the artillery battalion into three reinforcements The company was dispatched to the west, south, and east bridges across the river for support."

Kang Wannian threw away the cigarette butt: "Where's the Beicheng Bridge?"

"Our superior force is only enough to form three frontal battlefields. The North City District is equipped with a fire-breathing barracks, which can only be broken through by taking advantage of the number of people." The chief of staff interjected: "This is my decision."

Kang Wannian continued to ask: "What about the armored soldiers? How many did we bring out?"

"Thirty people!" The chief of staff explained: "Full-covered exoskeleton armor, Fort No. 87 has a total of fifty-five sets, some of which were damaged when the revolutionary army attacked the border post, and the rest were in Headquarters and the Gendarmerie Office, I have mobilized all the armored troops, and they are currently distributed around our tent to protect your safety!"

Kang Wannian got up and walked to the edge of the sand table, looked at the topography of the fortress, pointed to the widest part of the moat and said, "No! Don't let them stay here, send all these armored soldiers to the frontal battlefield! Let them avoid the bridge across the river and swim across the river from this spot! The river is the widest here, and the other party will not think that someone will break through from here!"

The chief of staff persuaded: "Master, these soldiers are our most elite combat forces! I think they should still stay by your side! After all, your safety is the most important thing!"

"You have to know that as long as we successfully regain control of the fortress, we are the safest! Or, do you think there is still safety to talk about when I already need the protection of this group of people?"

Kang Wannian waved his hand: "The role of armored soldiers in the frontal battlefield is far greater than you think. Letting them act as guards is a blasphemy and waste of power! Listen to me, send them out! Send the headquarters Find all the satellite phones that are available, equip them, and do your best to keep them connected to the command."

"Understood! I'll do it right away!"

The chief of staff agreed and walked out of the tent. Kang Wannian also turned his attention to the big screen again.

...

On the cross-river bridge on the west side, ten scouts opened the skirmish line and were slowly moving towards the bridge head, using night vision equipment to check the load-bearing parts of the bridge.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a scout was hit by a bullet, and a large hole was opened in his body armor by the bullet, and blood spurted several meters away.

"throat!"

About two seconds later, the sound of the gun sniper came from a distance.

An experienced scout quickly hid behind a bridge pillar and shouted to his companions: "Sniper! Four hundred and fifty meters away! Hidden! Hidden!!"

"Da da da!"

Before the scouts could set off, the gunshots sounded again, and several members of the garrison who were hiding on the bridge and had just been mixed up began to raise their guns and swept towards the scouts on the bridge.

"Counterattack! Counterattack!"

"Boom!"

"Tu Tu Tu!"

"...!"

The gunfire sounded without warning, and the gunfire on the bridge flickered like fireworks.

At the Qiaoxi position, the artillery commander heard the sound of gunfire and roared loudly: "Damn! The rebels are firing! Howitzer No. 1 confirms the secret position on its own! Using the location of the exchange of fire as a marker, plough it one kilometer west! A base!"

"Tom tom tom!"

The commander's voice fell, and there was thick smoke behind a building behind, and countless shells ripped through the air and disappeared into the night sky.

"Boom boom boom!"

After a few seconds ~www.readwn.com~, explosions began to be heard continuously across the river-crossing bridge, and the fire was soaring into the sky.

"brush!"

At the same time as the shelling occurred, the power was cut off throughout the city, and the streets suddenly turned pitch black.

While turning off the lights, the commander turned to take a look, and found that the firing positions were filled with smoke and flashed continuously against the background of the artillery fire. He immediately held the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Cease fire! Cease fire! They are using the light to find our artillery formations! Beware. Counter-artillery operations! Evacuate immediately!"

"Shhhhh-"

Before the No. 1 artillery formation in the rear could execute the order, the air screeched again, and countless rockets and shells dragged tail flames and smoke trails, whizzing toward the opposite bank, like a meteor shower in front of us.

Experienced veterans have begun to look for cover: "Combined fire. Rocket salvo! Run run run!!"

"Boom!!"

Artillery shells like raindrops fell on the other side of the river. Under the continuous bombardment, the No. 1 artillery array was forcibly razed to the ground, and the mushroom cloud rose.
