The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Chapter 3172



This way, the one thousand elites that Zayne had sent over there had already been completely assassinated by the opponent!

They were obviously the ones who were going to launch a surprise attack on the opponent. Moreover, all the elites that he had dispatched today were the most suitable for the decapitation mission. Yet, how did more than half of them end up getting killed and injured from the explosion as soon as they had just landed? How did the enemy strategize and come up with all of these arrangements in advance?!

Just as Zayne was still feeling extreme self-doubt, Hamed's soldiers had already begun attacking in full force!

Hamed had already divided the entire base into five areas according to Charlie's instructions.

Each area was then in turn divided into dozens of different coordinated locations according to the location of the detonation points.

Therefore, the soldiers in each fortification knew which detonation points had exploded according to the coordinates marked on the map, and they instantly had a clear understanding of the enemy's current location. 2

Immediately afterward, Hamed then dispatched eight hundred soldiers from the permanent fortifications and the reverse fortifications to surround the first echelon.

At the same time, the artillerymen in the tunnel on the reverse slope fortifications on the southern wing also immediately launched twenty small mortars, aiming at the detonation points on the northern wing directly from the entrance of the tunnel on the southern wing. They were prepared to launch another round of artillery on the second echelon on the northern wing. 4

The structure of the mortar was very simple. To put it bluntly, it was nothing more than a long and slender barrel fixed onto a tripod. This type of weapon had a short range and low power, and the extent of its damage was insignificant as compared to that of a towed howitzer.

However, this kind of weapon had its advantages too.

The biggest advantage was its high mobility and portability. They could just come and hit, and then hit and run.

The launching and firing process was also very simple. The angle only needed to be adjusted, and the shell should be put through the muzzle, and the mortar could then be instantly fired.

During the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese Army Lieutenant, General Oda Nobuhide, who was famous as a general, was also killed by a single shot from a

mortar that had been fired by a young artilleryman of the opposing party. 2

It was precisely because of these advantages that mortars had not been eliminated from the military for decades.

Hamed's artillerymen knew the location of each of these detonation points in the northern wing. So, they could make the adjustment very quickly before the bombing.

A minute or two later, these twenty mortars then began rounds after rounds of uninterrupted bombardments!

Moreover, these bombs landed with great accuracy and exploded almost directly in the center of the second echelon's assembly point.

These five hundred soldiers in Ten

Thousand Armies from the second echelon were already in a very tragic condition after the explosion, and before they even had any time to make any adjustments at all these dense mortar bombs landed allBelonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

At this point, the northern wing of the mountaintop was equivalent to hell on earth.

After a few rounds of bombing, the death rate of the soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies in the northern wing had already exceeded ny percent.

The remaining people were also on the verge of dying at this time.

"Tommy! Tommy! Hurry up and answer if you can hear me!" Zayne was already on the verge of an emotional breakdown at this point as he shouted the second echelon's commanding officer's name into the intercom communication system. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

But aside from the sound of heavy artillery on the other end of the intercom, how could there possibly be anyone who would be responding to him? Tommy Johnson, the second echelon's commanding officer who was British, had already been killed during the first round of the mortar bombing.

Tears could not stop flowing down Zayne's face as he listened to the continuous sound of mortar bombs exploding over the other end of the intercom system.

He knew that the second echelon

was already powerless and in a completely hopeless situation at this point. So he immediately said to the first echelon's commanding officer, "Onizuka! Don't give up! I'll ask the five thousand government soldiers to Jaunch an assault right now! I'll rescue all of you no matter what it is!" Content belongs to

The commanding officer of the first echelon, Onizuka Kenta, who was Japanese, laughed miserably and said, "Don't bother, Commander... The enemy has already rushed up... Goodbye... Commander..." 7
