21: Chapter 21 Gatling Bodhisattva's Flesh and Blood Grinder!
Underground control center.
Holographic screens emitted a ghostly blue light.
On the 3D map of Los Santos, dense red dots representing six divisions of the National Guard had surged into the outer streets like a tide.
Chu Feng leaned back in his leather chair.
Evelyn knelt obediently by his side, holding a glass of freshly decanted red wine.
She tilted her head up and brought the wine glass to Chu Feng's lips.
Chu Feng took a sip from her hand, his gaze fixed on the screen.
"Let them in. Do not open fire on the outskirts."
Chu Feng issued the order.
"Yes, boss."
The Bandit Commander's emotionless voice came through the communication channel.
Los Santos, Sunset Boulevard.
The lead armored battalion of the California National Guard's 40th Infantry Division was advancing cautiously.
The street was terrifyingly quiet.
No civilians, no vehicles.
Just broken glass and newspapers occasionally blown by the wind.
Minutes ago, the sight of the F-22 fleet being instantly annihilated above them was like a nightmare pressing down on every soldier's heart.
Major Williams, the commander, hid inside a Stryker armored vehicle, gripping his assault rifle tightly.
"Sir, the radar hasn't detected any enemy targets. There are no thermal signatures in the buildings on either side of the street," the radioman reported, staring at the screen.
Williams gritted his teeth.
"Continue forward. Occupy the intersection ahead and establish a fire position."
Fifty armored vehicles, covering over a thousand heavily armed infantry, slowly drove into the narrow section of the commercial district lined with high-rise buildings.
Just as the lead troops crossed the intersection...
"Thud! Thud! Thud!"
Heavy, rhythmic metallic clanking suddenly echoed from the shadows of the surrounding buildings.
"What is that sound?!"
Williams suddenly stuck half his body out and raised his binoculars.
In his field of view, the mist and smoke ahead cleared.
Rows of terrifying figures, over 2.2 meters tall, slowly emerged from behind cover on both sides of the street.
They were covered in thick, deep-black exoskeleton power armor.
Cold metallic luster shimmered under the streetlights.
They wore fully enclosed tactical helmets, with scarlet tactical glows shining where the visors were.
The most chilling thing was the weapons in their hands!
It was the M134 six-barrel Gatling gun, which should have been mounted on attack helicopters or heavy armored vehicles.
Huge ammunition boxes were strapped to their backs, with golden ammo belts connected directly to the guns' feed ports.
A full five hundred Mech Bandits completely blocked off the entire Sunset Boulevard!
"Shit! What kind of monsters are those? Terminators?!"
A USA soldier's voice changed pitch in terror.
"Fire! Open fire immediately!"
Williams roared hysterically.
"Rat-tat-tat-tat!!"
Over a thousand infantrymen pulled their triggers simultaneously.
The 12.7mm heavy machine guns on top of the armored vehicles also spat out violent tongues of fire.
A dense rain of bullets instantly covered the five hundred Mech Bandits ahead.
However, a despairing scene unfolded.
5.56mm rifle bullets hit the exoskeleton armor, only producing faint sparks, not even leaving a white mark!
Even the armor-piercing rounds from the heavy machine guns, hitting the bulletproof plates on the Mech Bandits' chests, only made their bodies sway slightly.
The exoskeleton power system instantly compensated for the recoil, keeping them standing firm!
The five hundred Mech Bandits remained expressionless.
They raised the heavy six-barrel Gatling guns in their hands simultaneously.
"Hum—"
The sound of electric motors driving the barrels to rotate merged into one, like the whisper of death!
The next second.
"Hum-hum-hum-hum-hum—!!!"
A firing rate of up to six thousand rounds per minute!
Five hundred Gatling guns fired at the same time!
This wasn't shooting; this was a pure storm of metal pouring down!
Dark red tracer rounds intertwined in mid-air into an impenetrable net of death!
With an overwhelming posture, it ruthlessly smothered the positions of the USA vanguard.
"Puff, puff, puff, puff—!"
The dozens of soldiers charging at the front didn't even have time to scream before their bodies were instantly torn into countless fragments!
Severed limbs mixed with internal organs and blood were beaten into blood mist in mid-air by the violent rain of bullets.
The cars on both sides of the street were riddled with holes, fuel tanks exploded, and flames soared into the sky.
Those soldiers hiding behind the Stryker armored vehicles watched in horror as the side armor of the vehicles was ripped open like paper under the dense sweep of high-explosive armor-piercing rounds from the Gatling guns.
"Retreat! Retreat! Request artillery support!"
Williams was covered in blood.
The adjutant next to him had half his head sheared off.
The Mech Bandits didn't give them any chance to breathe.
They marched forward with heavy metallic steps.
While maintaining fire suppression, they pushed forward steadily.
Micro-grenade launchers on the outside of their left arms were raised.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Hundreds of high-explosive grenades landed precisely behind the USA army's cover.
Amidst the violent explosions.
Countless mutilated corpses were blown into the sky.
A massacre!
A one-sided massacre without any suspense!
This was a dimensionality reduction strike that spanned a generation gap in equipment!
In front of the Mech Bandits, the infantry didn't even qualify to be cannon fodder.
In less than three minutes.
On Sunset Boulevard, the 1,200-man vanguard battalion of the 40th Infantry Division was completely wiped out!
All fifty armored vehicles turned into burning scrap metal!
The street was covered with a thick layer of flesh and blood.
Blood flowed down the sewer grates, dyeing the entire street a glaring scarlet.
Underground control center.
Chu Feng watched the large area of red dots rapidly disappearing on the screen, his expression calm.
He had divided his 10,000 Mech Bandits into twenty squads, firmly blocking all main roads leading to the city center of Los Santos.
This was like the entrance to a giant meat grinder.
No matter how many people the USA sent in, there was only one outcome.
"Master, are they... are they all dead?"
Evelyn looked at the real-time footage from the scene on the side of the screen.
The severed limbs all over the ground assaulted her visual nerves.
Her hands, wrapped around Chu Feng's thighs, hugged tighter.
"This is just the beginning."
Chu Feng reached out and pinched her fair nape.
Evelyn trembled and submissively rested her head on his knees.
Jessica, on the other side, was already pale with fear, kneeling in the corner and trembling.
"Notify the artillery positions."
Chu Feng looked at the large groups of red dots on the map that had stopped at the edge of the city, not daring to enter.
"Since they don't dare to come in, then force them to."
Following Chu Feng's order.
In the square around the Global Financial Center, the turrets of a full hundred M1A2 main battle tanks began to rotate.
A roar sounded.
One hundred 120mm high-explosive shells blasted out of the barrels!
Carrying the whistle of death, they crossed a distance of five kilometers and slammed precisely into the assembly area of the National Guard on the outskirts of Los Santos.
Violent explosion flames soared into the sky at the edge of the city.
In the rear command channel of The Pentagon, the situation exploded instantly!
Various shrill cries for help and curses intertwined!
