Chapter 121: Offensive and Defensive Battles Outside the Urban Area
With the costly attack of the gargoyles in the sky, a considerable number finally broke through the firepower net of the anti-aircraft turret and rushed towards the targets they discovered, but they were immediately counterattacked by the troops guarding around these anti-aircraft artillery.
For a moment, grenades, rocket launchers and automatic rifles kept hitting the bodies of these gargoyles. Suddenly, explosions of fire suddenly appeared on many high-rise buildings in the city, and many rock fragments would be smashed from time to time in the sky.
Although the soldiers' fired grenades and bazooka did destroy many close gargoyles. However, there were too many enemies and too fast. The body made of rocks had a very strong resistance to the bullets fired by ordinary guns. The rockets and grenades were not equipped by everyone, so the first batch of casualties of the US military immediately appeared in the skyscrapers.
I saw more than a dozen infantry soldiers using their weapons to attack the flying gargoyles. The bullets of the automatic rifle hit the opponent's body, and Mars kept popping up. Although the opponent did not destroy it, they also shot out a large amount of stone debris.
At this moment, a gargoyle holding a two-meter-long giant sword suddenly accelerated and dived in the air, and threw the big sword in his hand out.
The sharp sword, blessed by the acceleration of gravity, directly cut a soldier holding an automatic rifle from top to bottom, and a large amount of blood immediately splashed from the cut body, and now it was splashing around. And the unlucky soldier's internal organs suddenly flowed all over the ground.
After slashing a person, the big sword went down and penetrated deeply into the hard concrete roof of the skyscraper, making a huge sound.
Just as the soldiers around were frightened by the miserable death of their colleagues, several sharp claws suddenly appeared in the sky, and they grabbed a few of them and took them directly into the sky.
These American soldiers who were suddenly lifted up into the air immediately let out a miserable howl. Because the power used by grabbing their gargoyles is not something that human bodies can bear.
The hard stone claws of the gargoyle had directly shattered the collarbones of these American soldiers, and at the same time they were deeply inserted into the **. Blood quickly emerged from the wound, quickly dyeing the clothes on these soldiers into other colors.
After pulling the soldiers to a specific height, these gargoyles immediately relaxed their claws. The ones they caught fell down directly at high speed under the soldiers' desperate screams.
After killing the soldiers guarding the air defense turrets, several gargoyles immediately landed. They immediately formed a group of several groups and began to work together to push the turret directly to the ground. Or use the weapons in their hands to directly kill the turret operators. For a moment, screams continued to appear among the high-rise buildings everywhere, and a large number of air defense turrets were destroyed by the most brutal means.
Soon, most of the anti-aircraft guns in downtown Chicago were destroyed by gargoyles, but the remaining turrets still did not give up and continued to attack these enemies in another world.
Gargoyles who lost the artillery fire immediately began to land towards the city below. They are now going to take on the task of paralyzing the defensive power in this human city.
And just after these gargoyles landed on the ground, these magical creatures with hard skin were immediately attacked by guns from all directions.
At the same time, as some gargoyles were about to gather together to attack the remaining turrets, a large number of rockets suddenly shot out from the sky, attacking at high speed at these flying magic creatures.
Because the speed of the rockets was too fast, a large number of gargoyles gathered together had no time to dodge, and they were shot down or directly bombed to pieces in the air. A large number of sparks appeared in many places over these urban areas one after another. It looked like fireworks suddenly setting off sparks, illuminating the surroundings.
Soon, a dense sound of propellers sounded over Chicago, and a large number of Apache armed helicopters were already carrying a large number of weapons at night and joined the attack on the gargoyles.
The violently stragged machine cannons and the continuously fired rockets made the gargoyles in the air start to move quickly and avoid. The attack power of the Apache armed helicopter made these magic creatures unable to withstand the continuous strikes.
Moreover, the Apache armed helicopters also have the ability to fly, and are even higher than gargoyles in terms of speed, so the other monsters that can fly are very good. Previously, these troops had to take off from the airport next to the city, so they did not arrive until now.
Therefore, at this moment, a large number of gargoyles rushed over under the attack of Apache armed helicopters, but they were futile to take them.
Under the fierce firepower and superb maneuverability of the Apache armed helicopter, most of the gargoyles were completely beaten to pieces and fell from high altitude before they got close.
However, these Apache helicopters soon began to return because there were too many gargoyles in the sky. All the ammunition they carried was consumed in less than ten minutes, and now they must return to the base immediately for replenishment.
After the gargoyle troops in the air discovered that the Apache armed helicopter began to retreat, they immediately divided the parts and followed closely behind and started chasing. But at this moment, dense fires immediately emerged from the city of Chicago below them.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of Fim-92 "Stinger" portable air defense missiles began to roar from below and shot into the sky. These air defense missiles with automatic aiming function almost hit the gargoyles in the sky in the blink of an eye.
This portable air defense missile produced by General Dynamics in the United States is equipped among the three American armies. The original main task was to deal with armed helicopters, but it can also be quite easy to target like gargoyles.
The reason why these fim-92c "Stinger" portable air defense missiles did not join the first round of attack was mainly because the environment in the sky was too dark and the anti-aircraft artillery fire was too dense.
Now a Marine Corps E-3 early warning aircraft in the sky has entered the clouds above Chicago downtown and has begun to cooperate with the ground radar system to provide battlefield intelligence and guidance for weapons such as fim-92c's's stinger'.
The stinger missile's explosion-killing high-explosion ** weighing 1 kilogram can easily destroy the rock bodies of most gargoyles in the sky under huge impact. These magical creatures have no time to avoid these modern missiles at high speed. Often when they discover the incoming stinger, they are already hit hard.
So a series of explosive fireballs burst out over the night of Chicago. The sky flashed and attracted attention.
At this moment, the battle on the ground began to enter the most intense state, the ground legion of the demon army also walked at his feet and began to run towards downtown Chicago at full speed.
Although the US military's m270-plus rocket artillery battalion has already carried out a volley bombardment on the areas where the gargoyles are located. However, these gargoyles are moving at high speed. The m77 anti-armored killer ammunition cannot directly hit the target's body. Otherwise, they cannot destroy the monsters in the rocky bodies with splashing shrapnel, and the shock wave has little impact on them. Although the flames and shock waves generated by the anti-armored killer bullet can tear apart the abyss mages, the lethality of the gargoyles composed of rocks is obviously quite limited.
Therefore, after fully enduring the covered bombardment of rocket launchers, this gargoyle army still maintained 80% of its combat effectiveness and advanced towards Chicago City in front of us.
A scout who was responsible for monitoring the situation ahead suddenly discovered the tall and conspicuous earth element and stone giant. He was immediately startled by the huge monsters in front of him and couldn't help but shout: "My God...what kind of monster is that kind of monster...it's so tall... The chief has found the enemy in front of him...a monster that has never been seen before..."
What's the monster's fuss? Are they all the monsters they are dealing with now? The lieutenant colonel, who is responsible for the outermost defense of the Chicago city, couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with the fuss of his subordinates. But when he saw the enemy, he immediately made the same surprise: "Damn... what kind of thing is it? Rocket launchers seem to be impossible to destroy these huge enemies... Hurry... Connect the command center to me and ask the heavy artillery regiment behind us to use 155mm caliber howitzers and aim at those big guys to use high-explosive grenade bombardment. You must not let that thing rush in front of the road, otherwise we will all be done."
When the lieutenant colonel saw the huge size of the stone giant, he knew that the enemy could never be allowed to come over smoothly. Otherwise, the situation here would be absolutely chaotic, and he would not want to see the situation after the opponent's huge body was pressed over.
The communication soldier immediately sent out the information from this side at the fastest speed. Because he also saw through the surveillance equipment that the huge size of the stone giant and the earth element were approaching. It was simply not an ordinary weapon for the opponent. If he didn't find a way to destroy these things, he would be unlucky next.
...Boom...Boom...Boom...Boom...
The US howitzer regiment, located in downtown Chicago, was equipped with 155mm caliber howitzer. After receiving the order, it immediately began to bombard the target outside the city. The flames and loud sounds spewed out of the muzzle seemed so obvious in downtown Chicago at night. The sound of the surrounding anti-aircraft artillery fire was suppressed.
The artillery is worthy of being the king of war, and howitzers are the representatives. The huge gun flames and deafening roar all remind the warring parties that its powerful existence.
Under the guidance of fire-controlled lightning, the powerful high-explosion grenade began to accurately command the huge and obvious earth elements and stone giants.
Huge explosions began to appear one after another on earth elements and rock giants. Their hard bodies began to appear in a large number of amazing cracks under such continuous high-intensity bombings. Gradually, these war weapons that were quite difficult to deal with in the magic world were obviously about to collapse after thirty minutes of the war.
The first thing that I couldn't stand was the stone giant, although his body quickly became bumpy in the continuous explosion. The rock's body was constantly blown up and cracked, and eventually collapsed and restored to a pile of large stones.
The earth element with self-recovery is obviously slowly beginning to collapse under the attack of high-explosive grenades. Their recovery speed is obviously not as fast as the speed of howitzer attacks and destruction.
As for those ordinary gargoyles, after being bombed by howitzers, they were immediately blown up and splashed into piles of incomplete gravel on the ground. Even if they were not hit by themselves, the shock wave brought by the high-explosive grenade is not something that can be compared with the m77 anti-armor killing sub-complex.
The powerful shock waves generated by these explosions immediately knocked down some of the gargoyles in action, causing this army of magical creatures to suddenly become quite confused.
At this moment, the Gargoyle Legion finally began to turn into a large number of gravel on the ground under the violent bombardment of the 155mm caliber howitzer. However, these magic creatures did not look like they were at least in absent. They still braved the ruthless artillery fire with all their might and began to charge again.
Finally, after suffering serious casualties, some gargoyles on the ground were finally approaching the edge of the city. At this moment, some of the closest guys among them were less than one kilometer away from the city.
At this moment, the originally quiet front suddenly lighted up one after another. Hundreds of m1a2sep main battle tanks that were ready immediately began to launch fierce shooting at these enemies, and one armor-piercing bomb was starting to show its destructive power among the enemy groups in front.
Behind the m1a2sep main battle tank, more than m270 rocket launchers have now launched the "army tactical missiles" in the launching compartment towards the approaching gargoyles army.
Army tactical missiles are an advanced ground-to-ground tactical missiles existing in the US Army. They were equipped with troops in 1991 and were then used in the Gulf War. They respond quickly and can be launched around the clock day and night to strike important long-distance targets.
This missile is 3.9 meters long, has a diameter of 600 mm, weighs 1,660 kilograms, uses a solid engine, and has a maximum range of 150 kilometers. The warhead is equipped with 950 dual-purpose sub-munitions that can kill people and destroy weapons and equipment, which is much more powerful than rockets.
The hard stone made of rocks of the gargoyle was hit by the m829e3 reinforced armor-piercing bombs fired by the m1a2sep main battle tank. It was like soil, and was directly hit by the armor-piercing bombs that were attacked at high speed.
The subsequent army tactical missiles exploded immediately in the gargoyle group. A large number of high-explosive bullets exploded on the heads and bodies of these magical creatures. Immediately, many gargoyle bodies were blown up to a pothole, and some were even directly blown up their heads and fell to the ground and never got up again.
................
Looking at the gargoyle army ahead that was terrified and dyingly attacking the US defense line, the devil's cold face did not fluctuate at all. In his eyes, the only purpose of these cannon fodder troops was to expose the enemy's position and attract firepower. The troops who were really trying to attack the city had quietly sneaked into the shadows and quickly approached the edge of the city ahead.
Suddenly, with a rapid gathering of magic power in front of him, more than a dozen magic scrolls of meteor fire rain were finally completely released within an effective range.
At this moment, at the outermost part of Chicago, a large number of fireballs suddenly appeared in the sky and smashed hard towards the ground. The whistling flame meteor immediately caused serious losses to these US troops outside the city.
Those flame meteors are rich in highly dense fire elements, and the power of the explosion will never be smaller than that of large-caliber grenades. Therefore, those tank troops that had never expected attacks were immediately encountered devastating attacks.
Due to the attack angle, all of the fire meteors directly hit the top of the most fragile turret on the US m1a2sep main battle tank at high speed.
Although the armor of the US m1a2sep main battle tank is extremely hard, there is obviously no way to attack this kind of attack from the dead corners above the head. The flame meteor attacking at high speed directly crashed into the weak armor plate on the top of the tank turret, and a strong explosion occurred in the cab.
In the narrow space inside the tank turret, after a high-temperature flame meteor was penetrated, the temperature inside reached more than one thousand degrees in a moment. The terrifying high temperature immediately killed the tank driver, and the violent flames directly lured the ammunition to explode.
Then a blast sounded, and a fire that soared into the sky suddenly turned the body of the most advanced m1a2sep main battle tank into a pile of burning scrap iron, and the turret rushed directly into the sky by the huge explosion impact.
The m270 rocket launcher, which has weaker defense power than the main battle tank, was destroyed faster. As long as these light armored vehicles were hit by flame meteors, they immediately became burning flame wreckage under high temperature flames and explosions.
Compared with those armored vehicles with obvious targets, most of the soldiers hiding in fortifications were lucky enough to avoid these terrifying magic attacks. Only a few unlucky guys were hit by the hiding fortifications by the flame meteors and went directly to see God.
However, these surviving soldiers were extremely unlucky next. Because taking advantage of the attack of the meteor fire rain, a large number of gargoyles had taken the opportunity to rush into their defense. In the darkness in the distance, the more dangerous abyss demons were also ready to launch an attack.
