American Celestial Master

Chapter 247, Rock Puppet

Although the killing efficiency of the Oerlikon Twin 35 is quite good, relying on sufficient numbers, these stone Jersey Devils are still approaching, and soon they are within the range of the 20mm Vulcan cannon.

However, the number of Jersey Devils that can break through the interception of the Oerlikon Double 35 has been greatly reduced, and many of them have been injured by the Double 35's programmable ammunition. Their wings were beaten like sieves by the steel balls of programmable ammunition. They can still fly now because they are supported by mysterious power. However, the speed and flexibility of flight have been greatly reduced. Therefore, even the fully manual anti-aircraft gun modified from the Vulcan cannon can already effectively target and attack them. As for the one mounted on a flatbed truck with a fully automatic observation If you aim at the Phalanx, the hit rate will be higher. So the remaining Jersey Devils were quickly defeated. No Jersey Devil could rush to the anti-aircraft artillery position, let alone get close to the formation flag standing on the top of the mountain.

Looking at this scene, Odell couldn't help laughing. Deputy Tommy standing next to him asked: "Why is the brigade commander smiling?"

O'Dell replied: "I laugh at those monsters who don't understand military affairs at all and have no tactical awareness at all." If I were to command them, it would definitely be a combination of air and ground attacks. And as soon as I found that the opponent's firepower was too strong to achieve a breakthrough, I would immediately terminate the action and look for other methods. Is there any reason to send it directly like this? It can be seen that the intelligence level of the monsters there is still not high enough. "

"Actually, if you think about it, the guys there are either ancient immigrants from the 17th century or ancient Indian natives. Compared with us, it is normal for them to lack military capabilities." Tommy said.

At this time, this voice came from their earphones: "Attention, the downed Jersey Devil is slowly regrouping. Attention, the ground vibrations are detected, heavy targets are approaching, heavy targets are approaching."

"It should be the large stone puppet that Lin mentioned. Let the artillery and armored units be ready, and let the infantry prepare anti-tank missiles." O'Dell immediately ordered.

At this time, in the restricted area, the fog surged more intensely. Then, some fog groups were separated from the fog and began to advance towards the high ground.

Through night vision binoculars, even an officer without extraordinary abilities like Odell can clearly see that those fog groups are actually a group of stone men about four meters tall, and the blue-black fog is constantly flowing from them. The joints of the body and the openings on the face gushed out. These rock puppets gather together to form a moving black mist.

The artillerymen of the National Guard had already laid out a grid for this area, arranged the firing tables, and prepared test firings, so at this time, their response was extremely fast.

So these rock puppets had just separated from the fog covering the forbidden area, and before they had gone two hundred meters, the whistling sound of artillery shells was heard in the sky. Then the 155mm shells fell like raindrops, but these shells really just fell like raindrops - none of them exploded.

However, this was not beyond Odell's expectation, because they had considered such a situation in their plan. Lin Qiusheng once mentioned when giving them some special spells:

"There are some special spells that can distort certain rules within a certain range. For example, in the East, there are spells that repel water or fire. In the West, there are actually similar things. For example, when Moses parted the Red Sea, essentially A spell that repels water. As for the spell that repels fire, it prohibits oxidation reactions. For example, Miss Lilith, as a ghost, has a talent that can prevent oxidation reactions within a certain range. , are all oxidation reactions, so guns and bombs cannot be used within the area of ​​effect of her spells. Of course, explosions that are not oxidation reactions can occur. "

Obviously, there are similar spells at work around these rock puppets today.

"Turn on the power supply to the maximum and use emergency power." O'Dell first gave this order.

The effect of this command was immediately apparent. In the black mist that followed the rock puppets, more and more lightning began to flash, and the crackling sound of discharges became loud. Amidst the crackling sound of discharge, the fog covering the stone puppets became visibly lighter to the naked eye. Under the low-light night vision device, the color of the stones could even be faintly seen. But more smoke also came out of the rock puppet. Odell made a mental problem of driving the water pipe in and out at the same time. How long would it take to drain the water in the pool? Then he quickly The result is that the pool will not be drained until these stone puppets come in front of him.

"Use special artillery shells. Each cannon fires five rounds. No, fire three rounds quickly!" Odell gritted his teeth and issued such an order according to the plan.

Cannonballs engraved with special runes have a certain destructive effect on various barriers, and can ensure that the basic rules inside the cannonball remain unchanged, thus ensuring that the cannonball explodes normally. It's just that the price of these things is not cheap. Every shell fired out is a goat specially designed for the US military.

Then another string of cannonballs fell, and these shells landed smoothly and exploded. The air waves generated by the explosion suddenly dispersed the fog surrounding the rock puppet. The shrapnel crackled on the bodies of the rock puppets, sending stone fragments flying everywhere. Some of the cannonballs landed closer to these rock puppets, knocking them to the ground.

However, such a blow is not fatal. These rock puppets are much stronger than the gargoyle-shaped Jersey Devils that appeared before. Even if they are overturned by the shock wave of the shell, they can quickly get back up and continue moving forward.

"Use ordinary artillery shells and fire ten rounds rapidly!" O'Dell continued to order.

Because the fog had been dispersed a lot by the shock wave of the previous explosion, Odell felt that ordinary artillery shells should be useful again at this time.

Sure enough, most of the newly dropped shells successfully exploded.

But those stone puppets showed amazing ability to withstand strikes. Odell saw in the telescope that a stone puppet was overturned by a 155mm artillery shell that fell next to it, and even its legs were broken. But in a blink of an eye, it took back the broken leg and reinstalled it. Then he got up again and continued moving forward.

"Let the armored troops shoot with armor-piercing bullets." O'Dell estimated the distance and ordered.

A little further ahead, several M1A2 tanks were lined up. The platoon leader assigns targets to each tank through the on-board data link.

"One armor-piercing round!" the commander shouted.

The Uncle Black automatic loader opened the tail compartment partition, took out a depleted uranium armor-piercing bullet, stuffed it into the gun barrel, closed the gun bolt, and responded: "One armor-piercing bullet has been loaded!"

At this time, the fire control system had already locked onto the target two thousand meters away. Following the commander's order, depleted uranium shelling armor-piercing projectiles were fired towards the rock puppets.
