Eagle Sauce: The 055 destroyer was launched into the sea just after the founding of the country?
Chapter 629: Street Fighting? What Street Fighting?
After the Russians' vanguard retreated to the city for defense, the Long Kingdom launched several rounds of fire coverage on the city.
Artillery shells whizzed across the sky and exploded all over Dexing City, with deafening explosions one after another.
Thick smoke filled the sky above the city, blocking out the rising sun and shrouding the entire city in darkness.
Buildings collapsed in the bombing, rubble flying and dust rising.
The Bear Squad led by Major Nicholas barely survived the three-hour bombing.
They hid in a half-collapsed office building. The walls were riddled with bullet holes, and the plaster on the ceiling kept peeling off, accumulating a layer of grayish-white powder on the ground.
The major was observing the situation outside through a telescope. His face was covered with dust and sweat, forming streaks of mud, and his lips were chapped due to lack of water.
"It looks like the bombardment is finally over," Nicholas breathed, put down the telescope, and turned to his men, "Get ready for their attack. Using the city's terrain, we can surprise these Dragons."
The soldiers nodded, gripping their weapons tightly, their eyes revealing a desire to fight.
After the defeat in the past few days, they urgently need a victory to restore the dignity of the Russian army.
They quickly set up defensive positions at various windows and stairwells, set up machine guns, and placed grenades, preparing to ambush the Longguo army that was about to enter the city.
An hour passed, two hours passed, and there was still no movement outside.
Silence enveloped the city ravaged by artillery fire, with only the occasional sound of collapsing ruins breaking the eerie tranquility.
“What’s going on? Why aren’t they attacking?”
A young Mao Xiong soldier asked in confusion, with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.
Major Nicholas frowned. "Perhaps they are waiting for reinforcements, or... preparing for a larger bombing."
But he was unsure, because the Dragon Army's mode of action was completely different from what they had learned in previous training, which made it difficult for him to predict the other side's next move.
At this moment, a strange sound came from the corridor on the third floor. It was a familiar Russian folk song "Katyusha". The melody was clear, as if someone was playing it on a radio not far away.
“Who’s there?” Nikolay shouted, his voice filled with anger. “Turn off that damn music immediately! Do you want the Dragon Kingdom’s artillery to accurately locate us?”
There was no response, only the melodious folk song continued to echo in the empty corridor.
Nikolay winked at a corporal.
"Ivan, go see who the idiot is playing this game."
Ivan nodded, picked up his submachine gun, and walked cautiously towards the third-floor corridor.
The rest of the soldiers continued to stare out the window, waiting for possible enemies to appear.
A moment later, Ivan's cry came from the third floor: "Major! Come and see this!" There was a hint of imperceptible fear in his voice.
Nicholas and two other soldiers immediately rushed to the third floor.
When they turned the corner of the stairs, the scene they saw made them freeze in place.
A four-legged machine made entirely of metal stood in the middle of the corridor. Its shape resembled a large dog, but its steel shell and mechanical joints revealed its artificial nature.
What's even more strange is that the song "Katyusha" came from this metal monster.
“What is that?”
A soldier whispered in fear, the rifle in his hand shaking slightly.
The mechanical dog's "head" turned towards them, and its two electronic eyes flashing red locked onto the bear soldiers.
Its mechanical joints hummed softly as it adjusted its posture slowly and precisely, like a predator assessing its prey.
Nicholas instinctively raised his pistol: "Fire!"
However, before they could pull the trigger, two small hatches suddenly popped out from the side of the mechanical dog, and two grenades flew out and landed precisely at their feet.
"Grenade! Get down!"
Nikolay yelled and tried to jump back, but it was too late.
A deafening explosion instantly tore through the air in the corridor, and the powerful shock wave threw three soldiers into the air, with hot shrapnel tearing their bodies mercilessly.
Nicholas felt a sharp pain, followed by a brief deafness, and the world suddenly became quiet and blurry.
He barely raised his head and saw that a big hole had been blown out in the corridor, and the mechanical dog was walking towards him through the thick smoke, its red electronic eyes looking particularly terrifying in the smoke.
“Retreat! Everyone retreat!”
Nicholas shouted into the communicator with difficulty, not knowing whether his order was conveyed.
He tried to get up, but his right leg had been torn by shrapnel and could not support his body weight.
At this moment, more metal collision sounds came from downstairs.
Through the cracks in the blown-open floor, Nicholas saw with horror that at least a dozen similar mechanical dogs had entered the building. They moved flexibly through the rooms and corridors, and some could even easily jump onto the windowsill on the second floor.
Each mechanical dog played a different wooly bear folk song. The strange music mixed with the screams of the soldiers, creating a doomsday scene.
“This is impossible… This is impossible…”
Nicholas muttered to himself, his eyes full of disbelief.
How could the Dragon Kingdom possess such a weapon that is ahead of its time?
These mechanical monsters can not only act autonomously, but can also accurately identify targets and even understand psychological tactics, using familiar folk songs to disrupt the enemy's minds.
There were bursts of explosions and screams coming from downstairs.
Nicholas knew that his troops were being eliminated one by one by these iron hounds.
He tried to contact other teams through the communicator, but only heard a noisy electrical sound - the communication system may have been interfered with or destroyed.
The mechanical dog slowly walked in front of Nicholas, looking down at him with its red electronic eyes.
Nicholas closed his eyes and waited for death to come.
However, unexpectedly, the mechanical dog stopped attacking.
Instead, a small speaker popped out of its side, and a mechanized female voice spoke in fluent Russian.
"Attention, Russian troops! You are surrounded. Lay down your weapons and surrender, and you will be treated humanely."
"Resistance will lead to annihilation. I repeat, lay down your weapons..."
Major Nicholas looked at this iron creation and finally understood why he didn't see any Dragon Nation soldiers.
They don't need to send anyone to die.
From the very beginning, this war was not a contest between people, but a confrontation between people and machines, and the Russian Bear Country was obviously lagging behind by an entire era.
