Kivotos Warlord Development Manual

At this time, the enemy on the opposite side also realized the tactical intentions of the "coalition forces" and quickly strengthened their firepower suppression, trying to prevent them from breaking through.

Boom boom boom——

When fierce exchanges of fire broke out between the two sides, a new round of mortar shells also fell, still covering all directions without distinguishing between friend and foe. However, this round of shelling was of great help to the "coalition" side.

While the joint mercenaries of the "Mechanical Development Department" had to hide behind bunkers to avoid artillery fire, the "coalition" side, led by Naoko, rushed forward without paying any attention to their own losses.

The fierce posture of the vanguard seemed to give a shot of adrenaline to the tired "Allied Forces" girls behind them, and everyone burst into waves of fanatical shouts again.

When Naoko lost nearly one-third of her mobile forces again, the United Mercenaries who had poked their heads out of the opposite position were also exposed to the guns of the "Coalition Forces".

At this time, the "coalition" girls who were hit by shrapnel, sand and rubble and had hideous expressions no longer cared about their own injuries. While rushing forward desperately, they sprayed bullets at all the enemies they could see, and even melted the barrels of some vehicle-mounted machine guns.

Da da da--

Boom boom—boom—

This round of intensive firepower that broke out at close range instantly dealt a heavy blow to the defensive forces blocking the road. However, before Xiaohong and others behind could be happy, Naoko, who was rushing in the front, seemed to have run over an anti-tank mine.

Along with a curtain of flames with flying sparks, thick black smoke quickly enveloped the armored jeep, and a large number of steel parts flew everywhere under the influence of the shock wave.

Then a ZB30 machine gun with a twisted barrel was thrown in front of the stunned Xiaohong...

It seems that it was less than ten minutes before Naoko launched the charge...

This offensive is over so quickly...

Isn't that no problem...

With tears in her eyes, Xiaohong rushed forward with her rifle in hand. She didn't care what happened to the tough guy Naoko. If she didn't hurry over to resist the opponent's counterattack, they would push the front line back...

However, the former Iron Cat Knights at the front didn't seem to care about their boss's situation at all. After Naoko was blown over, they rushed forward along the passage she had opened without stopping, and directly pushed back the joint mercenaries on the opposite side who wanted to take advantage of the situation to counter the "coalition".

Xiaohong, who was running hard in the back, was overjoyed when she saw this, and quickly called on the "coalition" girls around her to attack forward, intending to push the front line forward completely.

Boom boom boom——

Another more intensive round of mortar shells fell, and this round of artillery support once again enveloped both the enemy and our side at the front of the line.

The vanguard troops that plunged into the enemy group were almost devastated, and the nearby United Mercenaries also suffered heavy losses. Even the defenders near the wall showed signs of fleeing.

Seeing that the enemy's artillery error created such a good opportunity for their side, Xiaohong, who felt like her lungs were about to explode, forced herself to speed up her legs and rushed directly to the front of the attacking echelon.

"Everyone, keep up the suppressive fire and the speed of the assault! They can't hold on any longer—"

Puff puff--

A series of silenced gunshots suddenly rang out. Xiaohong, who was waving her arms and shouting, suddenly stopped as if she had hit a wall of air, and then her body tilted and fell into a shallow pit on the side of the road.

When they found that their front-line commander had been knocked down, the girls of the Allied Forces following Xiaohong no longer cared to continue the attack and rushed to the place where she fell.

As a result, before they could rescue Xiaohong, seven or eight machine guns and shotguns hidden in the nearby ruins opened fire at the same time. The exploding rain of bullets instantly caused the second echelon that had broken into the front line to scream in pain.

At the same time, two infantry squads penetrated the battlefield along the left and right sides of the ambush squad and reoccupied the positions previously captured by Naoko and others.

Then, this group of reserve troops poured high-intensity firepower to suppress the "Allied Forces" girls who were rushing to the rear. After that, another round of mortars directly knocked down the mobile troops that crossed the front line. The "Mechanical Development Department" successfully stabilized the gradually collapsing front line again.

Xiaohong, who had just struggled to climb out of the shallow pit, gritted her teeth and tried to raise the MSG90 rifle in her hand to knock down the ambushers who were firing at her companions.

However, before she could pull the trigger, a short-haired girl in work clothes suddenly appeared and kicked the rifle away. Then she pressed the hot silencer on the muzzle of her gun against Xiaohong's face.

"Looking at your arrogant look, you must be from the War Research Department, right?"

"It's so funny. They are the elites of a large academy like Gehenna, but when they fight, they just rush forward like reckless wild boars. Even when they fight in our Hongdong Academy, we don't see such rigid tactics..."

"Ahem... ahem... I admit that I was reckless..."

"But... I just don't want to be complained by you guys who only know how to use human wave tactics..."

While the other party was distracted by her words, Xiaohong directly took out the MK23 pistol from her waist. However, her overly tired right hand lost its strength at the critical moment, and the heavy pistol slipped from her fingertips and fell to the other party's feet.

Da la——

Listening to the collision sound between the metal gun body and the gravel, Xiaohong looked at the other party with embarrassment.

"Um...excuse me...can you help me pick it up..."

The girl in work clothes holding an M16 rifle opposite first looked at Xiaohong, then looked at the big and heavy pistol at her feet, and then asked back in an incredible tone.

"Is this some special Gehenna-style surrender ceremony?"

As she spoke, she slowly pressed the trigger with her cotton-gloved fingertips, as if she was planning to directly deal with this guy who seemed to have a bit of a brain problem. Seeing that she was about to be shot again by the other party, Xiaohong struggled and spoke anxiously.

"Hey! I'm the frontline commander of the southern battlefield! Can you at least take me to see your commander before you take action?!"

"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about? Isn't the commander of the "coalition" Jiang Shangxuefeng? I remember that she didn't look like you?"

"She is the commander-in-chief, I am the front-line commander, and I am her deputy!"

"Ah... So the guy who killed Captain A and Captain D before was you..."

"I'm sorry, I was so rude."

"Commander who was able to kill nearly 500 of us with less than 200 men, we really can't treat you in this way."

After knowing Xiaohong's identity, the short-haired girl's tone changed 180 degrees. She first kindly took the gun away from her face, and then she hit Xiaohong's stomach hard with the butt of the gun.

Xiaohong was caught off guard and felt a sharp pain in her abdomen. She subconsciously hunched her body like a cooked shrimp, covering her stomach with both hands, and cried out in pain in a shallow pit full of mud and gravel.

Then the short-haired girl waved to her companions and asked them to bring a full box of explosives over.

"It's you, a bastard, who caused us to lose all our commissions, and we have to pay a huge amount of medical expenses on top of that!"

"You want to see the commander, right? I, the acting adjutant, am now the most powerful commander on the southern battlefield! See enough before I blow you up!"

"Boss, hasn't the command of the southern battlefield been taken over by Captain B?"

"We can talk about that kind of thing when she comes over. Right now I'm still the boss here... Forget it! I'll just do it myself!"

The hot-tempered short-haired girl jumped up and took the explosives from her companion's arms, then walked towards the unlucky guy who fell into her hands with a menacing look.

However, Xiaohong, who was about to be sent to the sky by the explosives, did not say anything else. She just lay in the shallow pit with her hands on her stomach, and tilted her ears as if she was listening to your bragging. This fearless look made the short-haired girl so angry that she quickened her pace.

However, before she could reach Xiaohong, a series of scorching 7.62mm bullets hit her head on, knocking over all the enemy troops near the shallow pit.

Xiaohong, who had recovered a little now, sat up by supporting herself with the stones in the shallow pit, and looked at the short-haired girl who was still struggling in the mud pit with a puzzled look on her face.

"Um... I'm waiting for my companions to come..."

"What were you waiting for after talking so much just now?"

"you--"

Da da da--

The short-haired girl glared angrily and just uttered a word when she was knocked unconscious by a series of rapidly flying bullets.

Then the gray-haired ball wearing two white sneakers slid down from the edge of the shallow pit and shot down the other opponents who were still able to move with a very quick and clean shot.

When Qianjiang was about to help Xiaohong, who was sitting on the ground, up, she saw that she was seriously pulling the short-haired girl who was knocked unconscious by her to her side.

"Eh? Is that guy someone you know? Sorry I didn't stop..."

"Ah...it's okay..."

"Although she has a bad temper, she is surprisingly easy to get along with. She probably won't mind this kind of accidental injury..."

After struggling to pick up the pistol and rifle that had fallen into the shallow pit, Xiao Hong dragged the explosives from the other person's hand to her side.

It just so happened that the "Coalition" had consumed a lot of anti-armor weapons, and they were worried that there would be no place to replenish them, but they didn't expect the other side to deliver them to their doorstep.

Then Xiaohong looked up at the security tactical team members nearby who were breaking through the positions quickly like tigers descending from the mountains, and a faint smile appeared on the corners of her lips.

The friendly forces behind us finally caught up. Now we just need to deploy explosives and anti-tank mines near the gate of the refinery before the tanks come out, and we can directly destroy their trump card...

Boom boom boom——

Just when Xiaohong breathed a sigh of relief, a series of shrill artillery fire suddenly sounded behind her, and several pieces of dust and explosions rose among the charging "Allied Forces" column.

Five tanks with multiple turrets on their bodies slowly drove out of the refinery gate and sprayed a rain of hot steel bullets at the panicked "Allied" girls.

not good!

The observer on the top of the mountain estimated the tank's speed incorrectly, and the enemy rushed out ahead of time!

"What kind of tank is that?! Why isn't there any mention of it in our tank intelligence?!"

Xiaocha, who had just rushed over, shouted out almost the moment he saw the chariots, and the gray-haired ball next to him also looked towards the direction of the refinery gate with surprise.

"The current moving speed is about 20 to 30 kilometers per hour, and the maximum speed is definitely no more than 40km/h. It is equipped with two 75mm and 37mm guns, as well as a dedicated machine gun turret..."

"This tank has a very strange appearance..."

"Although it is necessary to enhance the firepower, there is no need to make the tank into such an ugly patchwork monster..."

"No, Pandemonium has always liked chariots that look powerful and handsome. This kind of weird and ugly thing doesn't seem to be their taste..."

"This is definitely not an active tank. It's probably some strange product that those guys in the Mechanical Development Department have secretly developed."

Chapter 133 Anti-Armor Tactics

After realizing that the other party might just be a show-off, Xiaohong calmed down a lot. She took a deep breath and turned to look at Qianjiang.

"Huh... I'll hand over the command of the front line to you. Xiaocha and I will try to deal with those tanks."

"Eh? Sister is coming over soon, right? You've been looking forward to the deputy position for a long time, why are you giving it to me now?"

Xiaohong originally wanted to say that she was running out of energy, but she swallowed the words back.

If she told the truth, then let alone letting her risk getting injured to stop the enemy, even if she wanted to find a hidden place to provide support and shooting, she wouldn't be able to do so. Qianjiang would definitely find a few people to escort her to the field hospital behind to rest.

Thinking of this, Xiaohong's eyes flickered slightly and a helpless look appeared on her face.

"After all, you and the Minister have a better understanding of each other, right?"

"The current war situation doesn't give us time to play around. If we don't want others to laugh at us after the war for hiding behind the Minister and fighting a favorable battle, we must use every bit of our strength in the most appropriate place now."

"I just made the most advantageous choice for the battle situation as a commander."

"Haha, you can say nice things too!~"

"Okay, leave the command to me and Xiao Hei, and you and Xiao Cha will take the members of the security tactical team to try out anti-armor warfare."

"But remember, if you find something wrong, come back immediately and don't take any risks. Once my sister and our chariot are in place, those weird-looking guys won't be able to hold on for long!"

The gray-haired ball gave instructions to Xiaohong in a serious manner. Thanks to the recent accumulation of a lot of experience in combat command, and with the support of Yukikaze behind her, Qianjiang was no longer as impulsive and irritable as she was when she fought with Naoko and the others.

Xiaohong, who had obtained permission to act, also nodded, and then seemed to have thought of something and asked her.

"Do you have any more of that bitter chocolate? Let me have another bite."

"No, the last half should be saved for my sister. I'm afraid she will get herself seriously injured next time..."

"Besides, this thing only replenishes your physical strength quickly, it doesn't really restore your physical condition. If your body is too tired, it won't help even if you eat a lot."

"Well, forget it then..."

A little disappointed, Xiaohong rubbed her chest which still ached slightly. Thanks to the other party's use of small-caliber ammunition, the pain from being hit earlier had subsided a lot. Then she moved her increasingly heavy limbs, and after confirming that her ability to move was not affected, she grabbed the box of explosives at hand.

"Let's go Xiaocha, let's get started!"

"Okey!~"

Xiaocha, who was still trying to adjust his breathing rhythm, followed without hesitation after hearing the other party's call. Then the two of them took advantage of the cover from various places and approached the security tactical team in front that was under the tactical suppression of the infantry-tank coordinated tactics.

"Xiao Cha! I need you and the others to cover me as I get closer to those tanks!"

"It's a bit difficult. The machine gun firepower of those tanks is very dense, and they can crossfire with each other. We can't suppress them at all!"

After hearing what her companion said, Xiaohong immediately looked around and found that the other party was currently occupying the open space in front of the south gate of the refinery. There was no obstacle blocking the tank in this area.

The members of the security tactical team did not carry portable anti-armor weapons such as rocket launchers. It was difficult to suppress the reckless tanks with light weapons alone. At the moment, they were trying their best to slow down the infantry behind the tanks with guns and grenades...

After thinking for a moment, Xiaohong took out her cell phone and contacted Chiba who was giving orders in the back.

"Qian-chan, I think we need to move the front line back about 30 to 50 meters! Let those tanks disperse their firepower among the obstacles in the ruins of the position!"

"Your idea is a bit dangerous. If I give up my position, they might just split up and attack from the left and right sides."

"We have no way to retreat to our rear now. If we allow them to build a siege, we will be easily blocked by them in this position. Is this okay?"

"No problem. Our Crusader tanks are still on standby outside the western side. We just need to deliberately retreat to the east. If they dare to divide their forces to outflank us, their flanks will be exposed to our tank artillery!"

"Huh? Are the people from the Riding Department still hanging around? I haven't received any reports from them in a long time!"

"Forget it... If that's the case then I have no objection..."
