Armor-Piercing Munition: Face Me, Carbon-Based Monster! Chapter 154 - 52: Materials That Can Be Shaped2

Chen Jian paused for a mont and didn’t hesitate to praise Huang Yu over the radio, then reminded him to stay vigilant and continue to defend fiercely against any possible attacks.

This ti, Huang Yu still had the attitude of "resolutely completing the mission," but compared to before, Chen Jian’s confidence in him had increased dramatically.

If he can hold the first ti, he can hold the second ti.

Because he still has strength left, and a lot of it!

In contrast, Huadu will be unable to organize a large-scale attack in a short period.

Because our side’s actions are about to begin....

After cutting off radio communications, a slight smile appeared on Chen Jian’s face.

He spoke:

"I really didn’t expect Huadu would actively cooperate with our act."

"Before, I was wondering how we could make the ’retreat’ part of the act more convincing."

"But now it seems there’s no need for to worry about it."

"They start attacking Yellow Stone City, which naturally requires us to return to defend."

"This gives us an excellent reason to withdraw and enough to tempt the chanical God Sect to seize the opportunity."

"So next, we only have one thing to do."

"And that is to transport the aerial bombs into the Anqing Ruins and detonate them."

"This might be the simplest part of this round of operational plans... but we still need a decoy."

"A decoy?"

Ji Xing looked at Chen Jian and asked blankly:

"Is it still ?"

"No need for you this ti."

Chen Jian smiled slightly and replied:

"Lei Jie has already made contact with the Ring Caravan and checked the status of those weapon stations."

"Although not fully repaired and can’t be remotely controlled, he has restored the most basic functions of the weapon stations."

"Now, two weapon stations can fire automatically."

"These two weapon stations can perfectly serve as our decoy!"

...

One hour later, Chen Jian’s squad reached the warehouse.

Two hours later, a ship prepared by the Ring Chamber of Comrce set off from the warehouse, sailing upstream along the Yangtze River Channel.

Five hours later, the ship carrying a total of five aerial bombs of different specifications docked at the temporary pier established by Lei Jie’s team outside the Anqing Ruins, and with Li Shi’s assistance, all five aerial bombs were unloaded from the ship and hidden in a nearby stronghold.

The weight of these five aerial bombs is not heavy; the largest cluster bomb 4 weighs only 230 kilograms, and the low-drag bomb 250-3 is only 210 kilograms.

Such weight, let alone for Holy Blood beings like Li Shi and Zeng Yi, even Chen Jian, an ordinary person, could barely lift them with the aid of an exoskeleton.

The only issue is that it requires so extra effort to deploy these aerial bombs to their respective positions.

After hiding all equipnt, Chen Jian rested briefly, then spoke to Lei Jie:

"Are the positions selected? Have the weapon stations been deployed?"

Upon hearing him, Lei Jie responded:

"Positions are chosen, near the intersection of Linghu South Road and Lake Center Road."

"There’s a clearing there, burnt by wildfires, open terrain, and relatively close to the main activity area of the Terror Demons, tactically very valuable."

"After Xie Liu completed reconnaissance, I led the team to deploy the weapon stations at the appropriate positions and did so camouflage and initial protection."

"However, due to limited ti, we only set up simple shelters around the weapon stations, which can defend against gunfire but may not withstand artillery shells."

"In the future, when we advance to deploy the aerial bombs, we will further reinforce the shelters."

"After all, we must ensure the long-term survival of the weapon stations to let them perform their role as a decoy."

"In that case, the shelters we construct should at least withstand small-caliber artillery bombardnt..."

"Reasonable."

Chen Jian nodded slightly and then said:

"We set out tonight."

"It’s three kiloters away; we can make two round trips."

"Even after transporting the aerial bombs, there will be enough ti to construct the fortifications."

"But..... we can’t expose ourselves prematurely."

"So, soone must draw their attention while we set the trap."

"This ti, Ji Xing doesn’t need to risk getting close to harass them."

"He Shuo, it’s up to you."

"The trap is set on the west side, so loop around to the east with Xie Liu, find a vantage point, and harass them with your 10-sniper!"

"Understood!"

He Shuo imdiately nodded.

By this ti, the sun was gradually setting in the west, and the squad’s last "harassnt" before officially starting the war was about to comnce....

.....

At the sa ti, in Han Shui City.

Li Xian sat in his room, facing a scout who had just returned to Han Shui City.

His expression was serious, and he sat upright. Seeing the slightly disheveled and exhausted scout opposite him, he directly asked:

"Did you gather the intelligence I needed? Has there been a battle at Yellow Stone City, and what was the result?"

Upon hearing his words, the scout imdiately straightened up and replied:

"Bishop, all intelligence has been confird."

"As you suspected, there was indeed a battle at Yellow Stone City, and it happened just before dawn today."

"An unknown-sourced team attacked Yellow Stone City, causing so damage."

"However, based on current information, Yellow Stone City’s losses are not significant."

"They have fewer than 10 wounded and no fatalities."

"Conversely, the team attacking them, which is likely composed of rcenaries and Hunters, suffered heavy losses."

"According to surviving Holy Blood mbers, they almost completely perished."

"However, he also ntioned that the reason for their disastrous defeat was not that they lacked fighting capability compared to Yellow Stone City, but because they underestimated the enemy...."

"Underestimated the enemy?"

Li Xian snorted coldly, interrupting the scout, and then said:

"That’s just an excuse for failure."

"The strength of Yellow Stone City should never be underestimated, not even by the Holy Temple Guard, which can’t gain much advantage in direct combat."

"Alright, no need to tell useless details."

"I only need two pieces of intelligence."

"First, are the rcenaries attacking them related to Huadu?"

"Second, are those strongest Mimic Heretic originals still in Yellow Stone City?"

"Related to Huadu, originals not in the city."

The scout answered imdiately, then added:

"According to the Holy Blood mber, they were hired by rchants from Huadu."

"These rchants seed eager to attack Yellow Stone City, so they hastily recruited this batch of manpower."

"They were clearly unprepared and did not achieve the intended results."

"However, this attack is just the first; they say they will launch new attacks later..."

"Understood. That’s enough, you may go."

Li Xian gestured for the scout to leave, who respectfully bowed to him and then turned away.

After the room’s door closed, Li Xian quickly walked to the radio in the hidden room.

He tuned the radio to the frequency he rembered by heart and, upon connecting, said:

"Holy Hall, this is Han Shui City bishop Li Xian."

"I’ve collected the latest credible information about Yellow Stone City and Huadu, as per instructions."

"I have obtained three pieces of verified intelligence."

"First, the attackers at Anqing Ruins against Blood Skull are the strongest Mimic Heretic originals."

"Second, Huadu launched an attack on Yellow Stone City, seemingly not to annihilate but to pressure the Mimic Heretics, forcing their main force to return."

"Third, Yellow Stone City withstood Huadu’s first wave of attack, but Huadu’s assault will continue."

"Based on the above intelligence, I believe the Mimic Heretic originals are likely forced to abandon actions at Anqing Ruins and return to Yellow Stone City for rescue."

"So, if the Holy Hall decides to act..."

"The next few hours will be our best opportunity!"
