Collection of Gods

Chapter 823 Cloud Explosion
Compared to the chaos in various EU member states, the border town in Nigeria was silent at this moment. It was late at night, and in this poor and backward town, there was no place for entertainment, and almost everyone had gone to sleep.

Africa, a land full of primitive breath, has an exceptionally beautiful starry sky. The stars that are hard to see in the city today can be seen in full view here. The combination of the starry sky and the wilderness is so beautiful that it looks like a world oil painting.

As the leader of Combat Group 1, Shi Zhiyong will later lead seventy people to launch an attack from the east of the "Holy Land" organization, while Combat Group 2 will launch an attack from the west. After the battle begins, their two groups will become the sharpest knives, rushing straight into the enemy's aorta.

As for the mobile group and the support group, they will become mopping-up forces to clean up those that have slipped through the net and ensure the maximum possible annihilation of the effective forces of the "Holy Land" organization.

"Brother Yong, didn't you say there was heavy firepower support?"

"There are less than five minutes left until the final attack. How come I don't even see the shadow of heavy firepower?"

The middle-aged man lying next to Shi Zhiyong at this time was named Wang Dawei. He was the captain of Team 1 of Combat Group 3. There were a total of 1 combat teams like this in Combat Group 10, with 7 people in each team, which was completely arranged according to the personnel of special operations.

"Heavy firepower support, this is what Director Tang said himself." Shi Zhiyong frowned slightly: "Director Tang always keeps his word. Since Director Tang said there will be heavy firepower support, then there will definitely be."

Everyone at Jinwei Security respects Tang Yuan from the bottom of their hearts, because the benefits Tang Yuan provides them far exceed those of other security companies at home and abroad, and they also show great respect. Especially a few months ago, Tang Yuan provided pensions to the families of those brothers who died in the line of duty, which made everyone feel warm in their hearts.

"Mr. Tang never speaks without thinking, I definitely believe him."

Wang Dawei looked around and muttered, "I'm just a little worried. Maybe the people below made a mistake. We must not run into stupid teammates. If their heavy firepower support arrives after we rush in, we might be in big trouble."

"Don't worry about it. How could such a low-level mistake happen?"

"Whether or not there is heavy firepower support, we must launch the attack on time at 2 a.m. The enemy has been entrenched in the mountains for many years and has very rich experience in counter-encirclement and suppression. The enemy's personnel are very scattered. Even if heavy firepower is sent in, it is likely to be just to boost momentum, and the casualties that can be caused should be very limited."

Shi Zhiyong shook his head. In fact, from the very beginning he did not have any high expectations for the heavy firepower support that Wilson mentioned. In his opinion, the so-called heavy firepower support that Wilson mentioned was at most a few rounds of rocket launchers. For such a vast mountain area in front of them, it was really a drop in the bucket.

Their primary goal this time is to eliminate the leaders and core members of the "Holy Land" organization, and secondly to wipe out all members of the "Holy Land" organization as much as possible. However, Shi Zhiyong and others are very clear that it is simply a fantasy for them to achieve the second goal. To use an old saying, let alone more than 20,000 people, they can't even kill more than 20,000 pigs.

"Five minutes left, each team should do a final check!"

Shi Zhiyong stared at the time on his wrist. When he saw that it was 1:55 in the morning, he immediately gave orders to each team through the headset for final battle preparations.

Following the sounds of bolts being pulled, the scene soon fell into absolute silence again. However, at this moment, a low cry suddenly sounded in the earphones of Shi Zhiyong and others.

"Look at the sky!"

Shi Zhiyong, Wang Dawei and others heard the sound and subconsciously looked up at the sky. When they vaguely saw the shadows of dozens of Xuanyuan cruise missiles with long fire tails, everyone was stunned. "What are those things?"

"Meteor shower?"

Wang Dawei tilted his neck and muttered to himself.

Shi Zhiyong stared at the "meteor shower" in the sky, looking a little surprised: "These...these look like missiles!"

A total of 48 Xuanyuan cruise missiles finally arrived at their destination after crossing the ocean. The powerful guidance function inside them prompted them to turn their warheads and dive down towards the border mountains where the "Holy Land" organization was located.

At the same time, the eight fuel-air explosive warheads carried by each Xuanyuan cruise missile began to fall off the missiles one after another. A total of 8 fuel-air explosive warheads were scattered into the border mountains like flowers from heaven.

When Shi Zhiyong saw this scene, his pupils suddenly shrank, and then he shouted at the top of his voice: "Everyone get down immediately!"

Everyone at the scene was from the special forces, and many of them were once elite soldiers at the level of king of soldiers. Even without Shi Zhiyong's reminder, they all recognized what this thing was.

Meteor shower?
This is clearly a missile swarm!
At Shi Zhiyong's reminder, everyone immediately found cover and crawled down. Then they covered their ears, opened their mouths, and buried their heads in their chests.

Soon, these fuel-air explosive warheads, like flowers scattered from the sky, all fell into the border mountains.

In an instant, the earth shook and mountains collapsed.

"Boom boom boom..."

Countless deafening explosions sounded continuously, and the flames that shot straight into the sky directly illuminated the entire border town into daylight.

Countless shock waves spread out crazily. The big trees that were originally deeply rooted and lush with branches and leaves were like weeds flying around. The members of the "Holy Land" organization who were still asleep did not even have the chance to wake up. They were melted by the huge high temperature generated by the explosion.

Since its birth in the last century, fuel-air bombs have quickly become strategic weapons of many major countries. Many people even give it the evil name of "sub-nuclear weapons". It is different from traditional explosives. Traditional explosives rely entirely on their own oxygen supply when an explosion reaction occurs, while fuel-air bombs make full use of the oxygen in the atmosphere in the explosion zone when they explode, which mixes with the air and causes a violent explosion. People call it cloud explosion.

The destructive effect of cloud explosion on the target mainly relies on the overpressure and temperature field effects generated by the explosion, as well as the scouring effect of high-temperature and high-pressure explosion products. Compared with traditional explosives of the same mass, the killing power of fuel-air bombs is four times that of traditional explosives.

Today, a total of 384 fuel-air bombs have fallen on the head of the "Holy Land" organization, just like thunder from the sky. Just one explosion has caused unparalleled horrific casualties. However, the reason why fuel-air bombs are called "sub-nuclear weapons" is that their lethality is far more than that...
