King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer Chapter 1943 - 1613: Blow Them Up

The trenches of the village have all been captured...

Those Island Nation soldiers were fervent enough, but when they faced the anteater unit, who were accustod to close-range combat, they were like a group of kids.

The anteaters, personally trained by Karman, had instincts and habits like beasts in close-range battles.

Attacking from the shadows and weak side of a building alone was basic; when there were more than three anteaters, they turned into a real wolf pack...

When you think you're in a death struggle with an anteater, there's bound to be another anteater flanking you from the side or even behind, and then you're dead...

The trenches, which were originally intended for defense against armored assaults, beca force multipliers for the anteaters once they stepped into them.

The very mont Joe Ga stepped out of the trench, the attacking anteaters seed to be stimulated by sothing, increasing their attacking power and fire...

However, the remaining people in the village showed imnse determination. They used the dozen or so stone houses in the village center, which had stood for years, to establish fire points and block several key intersections, thwarting the anteaters' attacks.

After two rounds of mortar strikes from the Long Arrow Camp in the rear proved futile, a few young anteaters could not suppress their inner turmoil. They summoned Spearhead Missiles and, under the cover of their comrades, charged rapidly on the muddy ground...

But two were injured midway and forced to retreat behind a one-ter-high low wall.

As the people inside a stone house went crazy with gunfire to try and kill those ghost-like anteaters, two figures suddenly appeared on the roof on the flank...

Dorian and Ronnie, carrying rocket launchers, fired two thermobaric rounds at the windows of the stone house...

The two thermobaric rounds accurately landed inside the house, followed by a muffled bang; the interior of the stone house exploded like a gas blast.

The massive shockwave collapsed all the crude defenses the enemy had set up at the windows and the door...

The violent explosion halted a fire point on the side of the stone house...

Joe Ga used goggles to lock onto the location of that house, kicking the body of a large cyber-cat with his foot...

The cyber-cat sprang forward, accelerating over the muddy ground in just a few strides, and as it neared the house, the three white phosphorus smoke bombs and three gas grenades on its back were launched, with four flying into the windows and detonating...

The pungent white phosphorus smoke not only obscured vision but also inflicted so harm on the human body...

In comparison, the gas grenade was more brutal in its irritation to the respiratory tract.

Even from hundreds of ters away, Joe Ga could hear the screams and cries of the people inside the stone house...

Seeing the anteaters, wearing gas masks, charging without needing orders, Joe Ga watched the wounded soldiers who charged first and slightly shook his head, nudging the dical officer bird beside him, saying: "Take people to gather the wounded up and send them out...

These anteaters have gotten carried away, try to control them a little..."

The dical officer bird thought about those stubborn anteaters and said helplessly, "Boss, they don't listen to at all..."

As he spoke, the dical officer bird rushed to a group of anteaters, selecting a few of the youngest ones as if picking at, then urged them to take out simple stretchers, rushing over to retrieve the wounded...

When Joe Ga saw the dical officer bird make the 'not life-threatening' gesture after inspection, he looked at the remaining seven or eight stone houses and said to Dorian, "Tell all the anteaters to fall back and establish a line of defense, suppress them, and blast them with thermobaric rounds..."

There's no such thing as room-to-room searches...

After grabbing two stone houses, the main road of the village was opened, followed by Talus trailers entering the scene, and then thermobaric bombing...

Joe Ga was not good at commanding, and with the advantage of external resources, he acted extrely straightforward and direct...

The cyber-cat returned for reloading, and after the anteaters completely captured the second stone house, it dashed out again, using white phosphorus smoke bombs to divide the battlefield of several stone houses, cutting off the enemy's situational awareness, and then, it was just a matter of consuming them piece by piece...

anwhile, while Boss Joe and the others were clearing the village, Cobra and Archerfish, piloting an F-14, dropped by and activated weapon usage permissions, then dropped six 500-kilogram cluster bombs on the north side of Lake Loshou where an enemy large-scale landfall was taking place...

Four cluster bombs fell from the sky like four mighty fists, morphing into a giant hand at a hundred ters above the ground before slamming heavily onto it.

A unit that had just completed assembly, consisting of 14 amphibious vehicles and over a hundred Indian soldiers, was trying to attack towards Highway 144...

But before they could even step onto the coastal road, they were firmly smacked on the head by a 'giant hand'...

Following a series of dense explosions, a football-field-sized area rose with thick mist and black smoke.

And then, those soldiers and armored vehicles within were silent...

Dozens of landing craft on the shoreline using heavy machine guns on-board to cover landing forces encountered the sa fate...

A dense formation is an absolute taboo in modern warfare...

Those landing ships, spaced only a few ters apart or even tightly together, faced with a wave of cluster bomb attacks, were like little yellow ducks placed in a bathtub by a mischievous child, instantly paralyzed in the exploding tides, with most starting to capsize and silence.

The duel between P.B. and the Lake Belga Foundation combined high technology from modern warfare with pre-Cold War mass army confrontation styles.

It ford a battle that appeared twisted but was extraordinarily intense.

Now, the Russia-Ukraine war is almost like this...

Ukraine has NATO technical support, and Russia has its high-end strategic forces...

But the frontline clash between both sides remains an armored and manpower combined slaughter; every ti these high-end forces make a move, a command center or logistics depot gets written off...

The strategic strike forces and ground troops are disjointed!

Because a person only has two legs, a tank only has two tracks, and a war vehicle only has a few wheels, they cannot keep up with the pace of air forces or strategic missile strikes.

The battle on Gotland was intense because the battlefield was confined to a limited area...

Even P·B lost the habit of having the air force support ground troops, being constrained by high-end confrontations orchestrated by NATO's Directorate, causing a disconnect between air and ground tactics.

If the area was expanded to a range of millions of square kiloters, this situation would be magnified many tis, even to the point where priorities beco indiscernible.

Expecting ground forces to keep pace with air forces or strategic units is asking the impossible.

Moreover, the gap between ground forces and other units will only widen over ti!

Realistically, the approach should be to have air force and strategic missile units serve the ground forces, delivering strikes or support based on the ground troops' needs...

But how is this possible?

How can the strong accommodate the weak?

In future real major wars, the high-end forces will determine victory, and only when political advantages are achieved will the army step in to settle the situation.

As Cobra and Archerfish dropped cluster bombs and began to pursue those two F117s with reinforcent, the island invasion reached a critical state.

3000 against 9000, completely blocking nearly 5 kiloters of coastline was impossible...

When Indian soldiers served as cannon fodder to attract a lot of firepower, a landing squad made up of Ukrainian 'refugee soldiers' stepped onto the beach...

Compared to the three units using Indian weapons, this rcenary group was evidently much more elite...

They had no amphibious vehicles to rely on, but they had unmanned vehicles similar to Talus trailers fighting alongside...

Each squad of soldiers was accompanied by an unmanned tracked war vehicle equipped with heavy machine guns or automatic grenade launchers...

These vehicles couldn't offer strong protection but could provide strong firepower...

anwhile, a band of Gurkha rcenaries landed from a more northern direction using rubber boats, attempting to launch a raid from the flank of P·B's Warrior Camp, which was holding the 144 Highway...

Next will be a head-on showdown, with the entrenched P·B facing enemies with no retreat...

No landing soldier was willing to wait under seemingly endless shelling and drone bombings, without any channel of communication, when surrender beca a luxury, they could only choose to advance...

The Warrior Camp in defensive positions within a small range, in coordination with the nimble Lion Composite Battalion quickly controlled the situation, steering it toward an overwhelming advantage...

Areas around the 144 Highway parallel to the coastline turned into a real death zone!

.........

When Joe Ga led the team to destroy the fifth stone house, a white flag was raised from the remaining stone houses...

Sakata, with a slight leg injury, ca out with his chest held high waving a white flag, his expression implied he was the victor.

"We surrender, in exchange, we require acceptable treatnt..."

The Anteaters hadn't experienced such a scene, as they looked at each other, Joe Ga pushed Ayu's gun barrel to aim at Sakata...

"Kill them all..."

Ayu pulled the trigger...

The bullets fired from the machine gun grazed Sakata's waist, sweeping several Island Nation soldiers who followed Sakata to surrender off their feet.

Dorian fired a thermobaric bomb into a stone house packed with Island Nation soldiers, the fierce explosion with fire made the majority inside collapse instantly...

A few 'lucky ones' frantically ran out of the fire-engulfed house, rolling frenziedly in mud to extinguish the flas on their bodies...

The Anteaters, perhaps finding these people troubleso, or perhaps feeling a pang of sympathy, blew off the heads of several 'lucky ones' with gas masks, seized the position for attacking the next stone house.

As the Anteaters' offensive progressed, the remaining Island Nation soldiers embarked on a desperate escape, exposing their backs to P·B's gun barrels...

Fear led them to collapse completely...

Strength, spirit, dignity were crushed; fierce battles and tragic deaths caused severe PTSD in so Island Nation soldiers...

There was no need for excessive pursuit; these n themselves shot dead so comrades they considered obstacles.

So even convulsed and fell to the ground while running, becoming soulless bodies.

The sudden high pressure, blood, fear, caused so to completely break down after the frenzy faded!

Just as Joe Ga frowned, urging the Anteaters to continue, a team erged from a stone house...

Leading the group, a fellow raised a white flag and shouted loudly: "I am a mber of the Strike Group, we are not enemies...

We surrender, I have sothing you need..."

Joe Ga raised his gun and looked through a four-tis scope to see Jorgensen, besides the white flag, he held a phone...

He nudged Dorian with his foot, and the perceptive Dorian fired a few shots at Jorgensen's feet, shouting loudly, "Don't move, keep your hands where we can see, and slowly lie down..."
