120: Hilltop Rabbits suffered heavy casualties
When Pan Han heard Qin Laoda say that, he understood that the ultimate weapon had to be used.
"Lord Pan, you still couldn't hold back." Mo Li's expression was unruffled, but inwardly he was already beginning to gloat.
"Mr. Mo, you flatter me." Pan Han took out another can of sprite from his pocket and popped it open with a bang.
A refreshing lemon scent, mixed with the unique aroma of the beverage, permeated the room.
"Lord Pan, your strength is truly formidable." Mo Li was surprised that he could carry such a luxury item as soda with him.
"Mr. Mo, I can only say that cooperating with me is definitely more suitable than with Z Tower." Pan Han took a sip of sprite and then pushed it towards Mo Li.
Mo Li picked up the sprite, examined it, and then sniffed its aroma, but only smiled and did not answer Pan Han.
"Lord Pan, this is somewhat unexpected. It seems our intelligence is not yet particularly complete." Mo Li did not drink the sprite but instead played tai chi with him.
Just as the two were bickering, the anti-aircraft guns had already begun firing.
The huge launching sound resounded around the base.
"Sixth Brother, you damn well take it easy." Qin Zhong saw that Sixth Brother had pressed the launcher and wouldn't let go, turning his anger into a barrage of firepower.
Upon hearing this, Sixth Brother quickly let go. In that short time, 800 shells had been unleashed.
A long string of shells flashed with fire, heading straight for the Z Tower armored vehicle position, looking exceptionally enchanting in the apocalypse's evening.
Qin Zhong raised his binoculars, staring intently at the fire: "Bullseye! Bullseye! Bullseye!"
The other side also discovered that shells were flying towards them, but they had little time to maneuver and could only try to scatter as much as possible.
However, even with small movements, most of the shells missed. The remaining shells, by chance, all hit the armored vehicles.
These armored vehicles immediately spewed out plumes of smoke.
"Excellent! They hit!" Qin Zhong cheered with raised arms.
"Big Brother, another round? I haven't had enough!" Sixth Brother shouted from behind him.
"Wait!" Qin Zhong noticed something was amiss.
The smoke from the armored vehicles slowly dissipated, and they were all surprisingly intact!
"What the hell is going on!" Qin Zhong was dumbfounded.
"Damn it! They actually installed reactive armor!" It only took him one second to realize.
"Sixth Brother, quickly, another round." Qin Zhong didn't care anymore; reactive armor was limited in quantity and would be gone after exploding. He had to seize this opportunity to quickly follow up.
"Alright!" Sixth Brother pressed the launch button again.
Swish, swish!
Another 800 were fired.
However, with the previous attack, the armored vehicles scattered even more widely this time.
Most of the shells missed, with only two armored vehicles being hit.
But once hit, it was basically a penetration. Anti-aircraft guns firing horizontally were no joke.
These two armored vehicles immediately burst into flames, and the people inside were either shattered or stunned, with no chance to jump out.
Moreover, there was still remaining ammunition in the vehicles, and as soon as the fire spread, it immediately detonated the ammunition. These two armored vehicles performed sympathetic detonations on the spot.
"Oh, wow! They're even using this now. It seems they're digging deep into their reserves." Seeing this scene, Li Qinglong couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
As an Intermediate Evolver, he indeed had some fear of 30mm anti-aircraft guns.
If the armored squadron went first to waste a wave of shells, he would be safer in the end.
"Fire! Let them fire to their heart's content! Hahaha!" Li Qinglong sat in the car, letting out bursts of wild laughter.
...
"Big Brother, the gun barrel is red hot, it needs to cool down." Sixth Brother rushed behind Qin Zhong.
"First, let's see the reaction from the other side. Maybe they'll retreat once they know we have this." Although Qin Zhong was not very satisfied with destroying only two vehicles, it at least showed that he had means of counterattack.
This time, Qin Zhong miscalculated.
The armored vehicle squadron, having received Li Qinglong's orders, instead continued to advance towards Dawn Base.
They fired as they moved, with all their firepower unleashed.
For a time, Dawn Base was under attack again. Many heavy machine gun bullets kicked up clouds of dust around Qin Zhong.
"Big Brother, what should we do? Let's fight to the death." Sixth Brother was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"If we use everything now, what will we do when the Intermediate Evolver arrives later?"
"Big Brother, if we don't use it now, we won't last until the Intermediate Evolver arrives."
Just as the two of them were discussing, the situation changed again.
"Big Brother, look!" Sixth Brother pointed towards the convoy.
"Damn it, that's too cunning." Qin Zhong cursed instantly upon seeing it.
It turned out that the Z Tower convoy was not foolishly charging forward, but instead releasing a large number of smoke grenades.
A smoke screen approximately 3 kilometers long and 1 kilometer wide formed on the battlefield.
This area bordered the base, and once the armored vehicles emerged from the smoke, they could rush into the base within half a minute.
"Big Brother, the radar can't see them anymore. This smoke is very strange." Sixth Brother reported.
"Notify everyone to prepare bayonets." Qin Zhong threw away his binoculars, his gaze slightly dim.
"Sixth Brother, you and Seventh Sister, go take Lord Pan away. Arrange a vehicle for immediate retreat. If he doesn't agree, you can use force." Qin Zhong had already given up hope of survival, but he absolutely could not sacrifice himself in vain.
"Big Brother! I'm not leaving, if we die, we die together!" Sixth Brother instantly burst into tears.
"Execute the order."
"I won't!"
"Sixth Brother! The base must leave a seed so we can get revenge in the future. Go quickly!" Qin Zhong's eyes also welled up with tears as he pushed Sixth Brother away.
Seeing his Big Brother say this, Sixth Brother knew it was useless to say more. He wiped away his tears and ran off, heading straight for Pan Han.
The other Dawn Squad members, upon hearing their boss's command, also knew it was time to fight for their lives.
They had been together for several years, going through countless life-and-death situations, always narrowly escaping danger.
It seemed that today was the time to make a stand.
"Lord Pan, you should still prepare to retreat." Mo Li heard the farewells over the walkie-talkie, looking slightly disappointed.
Compared to resources, strong individuals were more worth investing in.
At this moment, Pan Han was still struggling internally, wondering whether to knock Mo Li out in one go.
If he didn't do it soon, it might all go wrong.
At worst, a huge loss! Pan Han had made up his mind at this point.
He began to check his remaining supplies in space; hundreds of boxes of food, alcohol, and cigarettes, it should still be enough.
Just then, the battlefield suddenly changed again!
Bursts of explosions rang out in front of the base, and balls of fire rose within the smoke.
Qin Zhong looked up sharply!
Sixth Brother turned and stared blankly!
Pan Han stood up straight!
Cheng Xiao came downstairs to look out!
Mo Li felt a surge of doubt!
Everyone in the base was dumbfounded!
"Qin Zhong, what's going on?" Pan Han nervously picked up the walkie-talkie.
"Sir, I can't see clearly. It should be the armored convoy that got blown up."
"Send people to charge in." Pan Han ordered directly.
"Yes!" Qin Zhong immediately took a few slaves with him and rode motorcycles straight into the smoke.
"Chirp, chirp chirp!" Just then, Pan Han's walkie-talkie transmitted the sound of a Mountain Top Rabbit!
That's right! If not Rabbit, then who else could it be?
Pan Han, being overly nervous, had forgotten to pay attention to the Rabbits' actions.
"Chirp chirp chirp! Chirp!" The Mountain Top Rabbit let out a mournful cry.
"Ah?" Pan Han was greatly surprised upon hearing this!
It turned out that after the Rabbits heard Qin Zhong's order to fix bayonets. They quickly gathered together and held an emergency discussion to strategize.
Running away was absolutely not an option!
Rabbits only move forward!
After a brief discussion, 50 Rabbits formed a suicide squad. Two to three Rabbits were assigned to each vehicle for a saturation attack.
The absolute requirement was to wipe out the armored vehicle squadron in one go.
Originally, the Mountain Top Rabbit wanted to lead the team, but the team members forcibly insisted that it stay behind.
Afterward, Pan Han learned that these daring Rabbits had only one request: that the Mountain Top Rabbit watch over the green grasslands of their future for them.
