Across the entire plain, in an instant, more than a hundred Spider cha appeared; they burst into the midst of the iron torrent.
"So it was you who hit the hardest just now, wasn't it? Have a taste of this," he said.
Hao Guyu twisted his neck, piloting the Spider cha, and locked onto his hunting target, an M1A2 main battle tank.
"Let the second row follow . We'll contain them here while they look for an opportunity to fire. Aim at the enemy's damaged armor. I refuse to believe the enemy is immortal...," he said.
Blak was commanding the battle, but the sudden appearance of spider chas like bamboo shoots after rain made his heart skip a beat.
"Boss, let's run for it," said the tank crew, gripped by fear and wishing to flee.
"Retreat, retreat," Blak uttered without hesitation. He was here for the money, not to shed blood for Siam.
Seeing such a number of Spider Main Battle cha appear, he had no more desire to fight.
The M1A2 main battle tank he rode in turned hastily, but before the turn was complete, a huge shadow lood ahead.
That tal spider monster they had just been attacking appeared before them, its black cannon barrel aid squarely at them.
"That is..."
As he recognized the barrel as a 203mm cannon, a trendous fear enveloped Blak. He shouted the last four words.
"God save us."
Boom!
The 203mm shell, weighing hundreds of kilograms, struck the tank, causing a massive explosion and sending Blak to et his God.
The dozens of tons of M1A2 main battle tank disintegrated under the cannon fire, with the turret flying twenty-so ters into the air, as if saluting the Spider cha.
Two nearby armored vehicles, too close to the blast, were overturned, their wheels spinning in the air like battered won, pitiful to behold.
The sight of this left the Siase soldiers pale with fright, stunned by the overwhelming power.
The cannon's muzzle was still smoking when inside the Spider cha, Hao Guyu shouted with glee, "Aweso!"
While proclaiming his thrill, Hao Guyu was even more ruthless in his killing, continuously using his machine gun to shoot down any enemies in sight, while rapidly moving around.
With eight tallic legs, a light leap could send it dashing across the battlefield like the wind. When encountering ditches and obstacles, those long legs could easily stride over them, as if walking on flat ground.
Even as it ran, the Spider cha's firepower never ceased.
Tanks had their tops blown off, armored vehicles were pierced by the machine gun, and soldiers had their limbs torn apart by heavy machine gunfire.
Thirty seconds later, the 203mm cannon, having been reloaded, was once again aid by Hao Guyu at a distant target.
The one drawback of the 203mm cannon was its slow loading speed, only managing two rounds per minute.
When the cannon barrel was raised high and a loud sound erupted, a 125kg high-explosive bomb shot out.
The shell, fired at a velocity of almost a kiloter per second, took twenty-five seconds to travel before landing in a Siam Self-propelled Howitzer position 18 kiloters away.
The explosive inside the high-explosive bomb detonated instantly, blooming like an evil red peony, leaving a crater eight or nine ters in diater.
Nearby gunners were directly killed or torn apart, while soldiers farther away were blown into the air, turning into flying n, their dismbered bodies scattered around, so landing as far as seventy or eighty ters away.
The 203mm cannon was originally used on battleships, typically as the main gun on heavy cruisers.
Now used against ground targets, with a firing range of up to 30 kiloters, the effect was unexpectedly exceptional.
Also firing were the other Spider Main Battle cha.
132 Spider cha raised their 203mm heavy cannons high, firing shells toward the Siam artillery positions behind the iron flood.
It wasn't that they feared these guns. Even if the artillery was powerful, with the agility of the Spider cha, it was hard for the indirect fire to hit them.
The First cha Brigade was mainly concerned about the artillery barraging the Steel Camp, as the Biological Armors could not withstand such firepower.
The Siam 1st Heavy Armored Division and the 2nd Cavalry Division had many guns, and at that mont, those self-propelled howitzers and rocket artillery were in big trouble, encountering a barrage from over a hundred 203mm heavy cannons, akin to a full barrage from more than a dozen heavy cruisers, an assault even battleships couldn't withstand, flattening the upper decks, let alone the gunners.
One by one, self-propelled guns and rocket artillery were blasted into scattered parts, with the few surviving gunners crying for their fathers and mothers.
They had never seen such ruthless enemies. Few countries now employed 203mm artillery, and to be unexpectedly bombarded so terrifyingly, with such density, was inhuman.
Even with long-distance artillery's significant deviation, the power and density compensated for all shortcomings.
And the entire battlefield, together with the roar of the 203mm heavy cannons, was like a great hamr striking the death knell of the iron flood troops, while also shocking those around the world who were observing through satellites.
The Spider Main Battle cha that suddenly erged from beneath the plains left every military person who saw them dumbfounded and their scalps tingling.
Satellite surveillance wasn't clear enough but that unparalleled destructiveness exceeded their imagination and understanding.
This novel kind of combat vehicle, much like their ergence, was elusive, shocking the world.
