Chapter 159 A Battle with Hands Restricted

"boom!"

The loitering munition, which was turning, exploded in mid-air, and the entire squad then began a rapid advance, attempting to reach the perimeter of the continuous casting area before the unmanned combat group could react.

"Bang bang bang"

Five airburst grenades exploded in succession on the left side of the squad.

The blast wave threw several small individuals who were not holding on to their feet off the ground.

Following closely behind were dozens of steel nails that flew in from between the continuous casting area and the steelmaking area.

These dozens of steel spikes were aimed directly at the sniper at the back of the line, successfully taking his life.

Unfortunately, the sniper in the middle of the formation quickly lay down to stabilize himself, causing the three unmanned combat vehicles between the continuous casting area and the steelmaking area to lose their target.

At this moment, the unmanned combat group that came to provide support left three unmanned combat vehicles at each entrance and exit to be responsible for defense, while the rest began to move, trying to find a suitable firing angle.

The three unmanned combat vehicles located between the continuous casting area and the steelmaking area were the first to receive support. Subsequently, six Gauss rifles aimed at the leading small and medium-sized individuals and began to concentrate fire.

The leading small and medium-sized individual withstood the firepower of six unmanned combat vehicles, raised the 20mm electromagnetic cannon on its right arm, and began to launch a barrage of attacks in the general direction of the six unmanned combat vehicles.

Although the six unmanned combat vehicles began to maneuver the moment they detected any unusual activity from the other side, this round of attacks still blasted two of the unmanned combat vehicles into pieces.

Sensing the reduced firepower, the leading small and medium-sized individual rose from his knees, maintaining fire coverage with his right hand, and peered out to search for Xuan Tie, who was now using grenades to attack.

But at this moment, Xuan Tie and Luo Yi had already hidden in the L-shaped temporary warehouse. If you accessed their communication channel at this time, you could hear Xuan Tie's complaints.

"If he had been carrying a smart man-portable missile this time, this guy would probably be a piece of rotten flesh by now."

"At the very least, they should be in a state of complete vulnerability right now."

But the battle continued. The leading small and medium-sized individual had not found the location of the black iron, so he prepared to lead the squad back to the steelmaking area for defense.

But at this moment, all the unmanned combat units that came to support were in place and began to unleash firepower on the enemy squad on the transport belt.

Faced with the sudden surge in firepower, small and medium-sized individuals could only lie down on the spot and extend their arms to provide cover fire in the direction of the incoming ammunition.

It rolled forward, searching for a gathering place for unmanned combat units.

The enemy's small-scale actions successfully affected these unmanned combat units, preventing them from continuing their stationary output.

Upon noticing this situation, Tengu immediately made arrangements. He divided the unmanned combat groups that were unleashing fire on the transport belt into several groups according to their location, and had them fire alternately to disrupt the judgment of the smaller enemy units.

Then, the tengu asked the cat where it was.

At the start of the war, the cat was looking for a concealed sniping position with a wide field of vision.

When Guan Gou sent the message asking for information, Maomao had already completed a charged shot and was preparing to move to a different position.

As the cat moved and replied to the tengu, a 60mm kinetic energy bullet flew towards the source of the crimson trajectory, shattering the glass above the continuous casting area and heading straight for the cat's previous location.

The bullet then shattered the glass at the top of the continuous casting area and flew out.

After completing the counter-fire, the small-to-medium-sized individual lay back down on the conveyor belt and had the team start counting off.

「1、2、3、4、5、6、7、9、10"

"No more sniper-type units!"

This small to medium-sized individual was extremely angry, but there was nothing it could do. It could only move more carefully and observe everything around it more closely.

After the cats moved to a new sniper position, the unmanned combat units led by the robotic dogs joined the various groups.

All the mechanical dogs except for the cat had gathered and were hiding in a temporary warehouse discussing their next battle plan.

With the battlefield outside at a stalemate, neither side can find a suitable breakthrough in the short term. Moreover, using airburst grenades to strike this squad again could cause irreversible damage to the transport belt.

So the mechanical dogs decided to personally storm the steel mill and eliminate the remaining enemy units inside.

After discussion, Xuan Tie and Tian Gou stayed on the perimeter, while Luo Yi, Maomao, Qiexue, and Di Ting were responsible for breaking in.

Tengu remained on the perimeter to command the unmanned combat group, while also preparing to receive Roy, Neko, and Kheshig.

The data transmitted back when the Listener is defeated.

Xuan Tie was responsible for using high-explosive grenades to sever the enemy squad's transport belt when the battle situation became irreversible.

Meanwhile, the enemy squad's leader, a small to medium-sized individual, also noticed that the battlefield was at a stalemate.

In an attempt to break the stalemate, it called upon seven special individuals lying in ambush inside the steel mill, preparing them to launch a ground attack to disrupt the formation of the unmanned combat group.

Upon receiving the message, the seven individuals immediately set off, forming three teams from the nearest pedestrian entrances and exits.

As soon as they stepped out, they were met with fire from the unmanned combat team guarding the entrance and exit.

A series of dense steel nails did not severely damage these agile and highly vigilant individuals.

The three teams took evasive action the moment the steel spikes came, and then, braving the blocking fire of an unmanned combat vehicle located to the side of the entrance, returned to the steel mill.

Then the enemy squad and the robotic dogs received the message at the same time.

The mechanical dogs that had arrived at the steel plant to pave the road stopped in their tracks, waiting for the next step from the other side.

Meanwhile, to prevent the enemy from cowering in place, Cat separated from the squad and prepared to search for a ladder to the top of the steel mill in the enemy squad's blind spot.

The leader who received the message was maneuvering on the conveyor belt to avoid the fire of the unmanned combat group, and did not have much energy to command this small team composed of special individuals.

It allocated a small portion of its computing power to briefly calculate the situation the special team was currently facing.

He then divided all the special individuals into two teams. The first team consisted of five special individuals and was responsible for breaking through from the main gate. The second team consisted of the remaining two special individuals and was responsible for supporting the first team from the top of the steel mill.

When the enemy's special units began to carry out the leader's plan, Tengu ordered the combat team on the right half of the steel mill to cease suppression and, while ensuring their firing range, begin to approach the steel mill.
