I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World Chapter 1414 - Power of The Cannon

Chapter 1414: Power of The Cannon

Gunshots persisted above the empty ground in the center of the military base and the flames of explosions bloomed from time to time. The previous full-scale rocket attack turned the entire military base into chaos. Burnt vehicles had tipped over on the side of the road, and from time to time, nuclear fusion cores exploded.

USN soldiers in kinetic skeleton evacuated to the entrance of the West Coast Meteorological Monitoring Center, deployed an aluminum alloy mobile bunker at the entrance of the cave, and fired back as they waited for reinforcements that who knew when would arrive.

“FU*K! How did these monkeys find us!”

“It’s not just monkeys… Fu*k, now we have to face those idiots.” Colonel Ross cursed at the scene of National Guard’s power armors attacking the military base, “Where is the spare communicator?”

“In the headquarters,” McCarthy fired a few shots outside the bunker, glanced at the chaotic military base, then looked at the destroyed building in the center of the base. His eagle-like eyes seemed to show that he was in a dire state. “SH*T! How often is your interval communication?”

“One hour,” After Colonel Ross replaced the burnt chip in the tablet, tapped on the tablet a few times, looked at the rows of icons on the screen with a red cross, then threw a punch against the wall. “FU*K! We lost the drones too!”

While they spoke, a rifle grenade exploded on the bunker. An unprepared soldier was blown upside down, and the blood-stained kinetic skeleton fragments scattered all over the floor. The two hurriedly ducked down and narrowly avoided the explosion debris.

“We can’t hold this place anymore!” After McCarthy emptied his last magazine, he tossed down the rifle in his hand, pulled out the laser pistol from his waist, and fired a few beams outside, then he grabbed Colonel Ross next to him, “Let’s go, we need to get inside!”

The bullet sh.e.l.ls clinked as they fell to the ground.

After he received the clip thrown over by logistic, Zhang Wei skillfully reloaded the rifle and fired at the soldiers hiding behind cover. With a few short bursts, a series of blood spurts appeared on the head of the soldier under the sight as the soldier fell backward and collapsed to the ground.

The combat effectiveness of this group of USN soldiers was not strong. Compared with their powerful mechanical equipment, they could even be described as weak.

Other than the invisible soldiers and the cyborg fighters who were not affected by EMP, which caused a lot of trouble for the NAC and the National Guard when they attacked NAC’s base because of their technical advantages. These USN soldiers in kinetic skeleton or even power armor, under the besieged attack of the NAC and the National Guard, collapsed in a one-sided slaughter.

Not far from Zhang Wei, a National Guard’s power armor swung its power hammer with a full swing and directly landed it on the power armor inscribed with USN. Eerie blue sparks appeared on the surface of the power armor for a brief second. The shock wave of the swing blew away the gravel on the ground and dented the heavy front armor!

The pilot inside couldn’t be more dead…

On the other side, a soldier who wore an optical invisibility combat uniform was suppressed down by the hailstorm of bullets and was finally blown into fragments by a rocket along with the concrete bunker.

The USN soldiers at the entrance of the cave were forced to retreat under the unrelenting firepower of NAC.

“The fishers are retreating!” National Guard Deputy Captain Wade roared; he exchanged the heavy machine gun on his right hand of the power armor into a grenade launcher and pressed down the trigger with force against the closing alloy giant gate, “FU*K! WHERE ARE YOU ROCKETS? WE DON’T HAVE ENOUGH FIREPOWER!”

“Deploying!”

Zhang Wei waved his fist and signaled the anti-tank infantry behind him to attack.

Just as the NAC’s anti-tank troops rushed to position, the National Guard’s rifle grenades had already landed in front of the giant alloy gate. There was a series of loud booms, followed by the flame of explosions that almost swallowed the round gate.

However, as Wade had expected, these high-explosive grenades effective against soft targets did not do any damage against the slowly closing giant alloy gate! They couldn’t even stop it for a brief moment.

USN’s infantry had all retreated into the cave, and the mobile bunker was abandoned. The NAC anti-tank infantry from the rear finally arrived at the battlefield. Under Zhang Wei’s command, they deployed the recoilless cannon onto the ground and fired at the giant gate.

A dozen “Poisonous Python” rockets along with orange tail flames galloped towards the entrance of the cave, then exploded into a series of orange-red fireb.a.l.l.s on the giant alloy panel! The huge door made an overwhelmed buzz, and the dull sound reverberated throughout the hills.

“WE GOT IT!”

However, when the smoke dissipated, Zhang Wei’s pupils suddenly constricted.

The giant circular alloy gate’s flat surface looked like nothing had happened. The dozen of rockets that could blow apart armored vehicles could not even leave a dent on its surface!

A word suddenly appeared in Zhang Wei’s mind.

Memory Alloy!

He had no time to hesitate.

As he watched the alloy gate that was only three-cars-wide before it was fully closed, Zhang Wei made the decisive decision, pressed on his helmet, and executed Plan B.

“Power Armor Squad on my command! ENGINE OUTPUT MAXIMUM. GET INSIDE BEFORE THE DOOR CLOSES!”

Blue flames burst out and thrust the T-3 power armors forward. With the wheels deployed, they charged into the cave.

A dozen USN power armors that had previously retreated into the cave realized NAC’s plan. They resolutely appeared from behind the alloy gate, lifted the alloy s.h.i.+eld on their left air while the tongue of fire reappeared from the heavy machine gun in their other hand.

Bullets re-weaved a net between the two sides. Rockets screamed and were accompanied by the roar of grenades. These warriors who dared to face death were quickly sent by NAC to meet their G.o.d.

But even so, they had accomplished their goal. When the last USN power armor was blasted in the explosion of an anti-armor rocket, the heavy giant alloy door was finally firmly shut and blocked out all the T-3s that just made it to the entrance.

“d.a.m.n IT!”

Zhang Wei slammed his fist against the concrete bunker, then stepped out from behind the bunker carrying his rifle.

The battlefield filled with gunpowder was full of fragmented mechanical wreckage. Without air support, USN soldiers were defeated in a firefight with the NAC, the National Guard, and the Minuteman. However, despite this outcome, they could not proclaim this victory.

Because the West Coast Meteorological Monitoring Center was still under American control…

They had to try their last resort.

Zhang Wei gritted his teeth and took out the tablet from his backpack. He set the attack coordinates on the map and clicked the last item in the “Available Support” list – the electromagnetic mega cannon!

He clicked confirm and took two steps back. While he put away the tablet, he pressed the b.u.t.ton on his helmet.

“… attention all combats units, the electromagnetic mega cannon’s attack is en route. The target is the entrance of the West Coast Meteorological Monitoring Center. Take the necessary avoidance measures.”
