Accompanied by bursts of gunfire and thick smoke, the originally luxurious palace-style hotel quickly turned into ruins.
Looking at the ruined hotel and the upper floors of the houses across the street, Claire Vaillant's face was extremely gloomy.
If Josie hadn't prepared a safe passage in the hotel in advance, they would really be buried here today.
That's right, safe passage.
Just before, Claire Wayan and his people retreated into the hotel in a panic, trying to join forces with Josie's people to break through the blockade of the attackers and rush out of the hotel.
Qiao Xi, who originally learned that the hotel had been cut off from the outside world by the attackers, suddenly took them all to a warehouse on the ground floor of the hotel. After removing the goods from the warehouse, a secret passage inside was revealed.
The moment he saw this passage, Claire Vaillant suddenly understood why Josie had been able to quietly investigate the reasons for everything without leaving the hotel for more than half a month.
So along this passage, they easily avoided the search of the "attackers" and moved to this private house.
After escaping from the hotel, Wayan was immediately ready to leave to find Nehru.
But Josie stopped her on the grounds that their current whereabouts needed to be kept secret.
As a result, not long after, the hotel was bombarded.
Even being able to do things like bombarding a hotel, Claire Wayan could no longer judge what kind of situation he would face if he went to find Nehru before.
In fact, during the previous attack on the United Nations investigation team, some things that happened during a private visit incognito had already made her not have any good impression of this country.
Ah San, since ancient times, there have been more men than women, so men in many places cannot see women at all.
No, it’s not that women are no longer allowed, but that even female animals may not be spared.
If Wayan hadn't been alert enough as an agent, skilled and armed with weapons, she might have transformed into a female investigator-type hot weapon.
Coupled with the current situation, it can be said that Claire Wayan has hated Nehru and even the country of Asan to the core.
"I really want to thank you this time, Mr. Kahn. If it weren't for you, we would really have died here." Wayang took a long breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and thanked Josie sincerely.
"You're welcome. Now we are comrades-in-arms on the issue of Asan Kingdom. Now, maybe we should discuss how to report to the country after leaving here!" Qiao Xi waved his hand and said with a serious face.
"Yes, Nehru must pay the price for his actions!" Vayan also looked serious after hearing this.
And just as the two were discussing how to deal with Asan and Nehru afterwards, on the roof of a private house on the other side of the street from the hotel, Nehru's expression was not much better than that of Claire Wayan.
When he issued the order, he knew very well what he might face.
But when things got to this point, he had no chance to look back.
So as soon as the smoke cleared, he immediately ordered the army to "rescue" the hotel.
In fact, it is to search for the bodies of the members of the Three Kingdoms Investigation Team and the attackers.
For Nehru now, it would be best if these people died now.
If he's not dead... then quickly make up for it with a few more shots.
Only in this way can he find ways to find reasons to cover up the truth of the matter.
But his idea can only be a fantasy in the end.
It wasn't just Claire Vaillant and Josie who had evacuated the explosive barrel of a hotel early.
Just as the "search and rescue" team approached the ruins of the hotel, soldiers with sensitive ears suddenly heard the dull roar of engines coming from under the ruins of the hotel.
Before these people could react, the huge engine sound instantly became louder.
The next second, accompanied by an explosion, a passage was suddenly blasted out from the interior of the hotel in the corner directly south of the ruins.
Then a ferocious steel giant rushed out from inside.
Some "searchers" standing in front of it who had no time to escape were instantly crushed into piles of rotten flesh.
As the huge roar continued and the smoke gradually dissipated, this terrifying steel behemoth finally revealed its prototype in front of Ah Sanjun.
Two terrifying 125mm 52-caliber guns, four Mengma anti-aircraft missiles, eight twin 14.5mm anti-aircraft machine guns, four wide tracks, 40 meters long, 15 meters wide, and 12 meters high.
The body is made of 16 layers of reinforced steel armor equivalent to 1600 mm equivalent armor.
(No official data from Apocalypse was found, so this data is a combination of the legendary German P-1000 super tank and some settings in Red Alert 2 and 3. It is the product of Dust's own fabrication. Don't take it seriously)
This is a super war machine through and through.
Its name is Apocalypse.
Yes, this is the Apocalypse Tank from the Red Alert World. It is one of the most terrifying land combat overlords in the Red Alert World.
Unlike in the game, you can build a lot of them if you have money.
In the real world of Red Alert, the Apocalypse Tank has never been a conventional weapon, but a proper mobile fortress for ultimate land warfare. In the world of Red Alert, only those important towns and the main frontline troops will be deployed in small quantities.
The peak number of Bear Tanks in the Red Alert World exceeds 100,000, while the number of this Apocalypse Tank is no more than 1,000, because its cost is too expensive.
But the horror is real.
Basically, with sufficient supplies, such a tank is enough to confront an Allied infantry brigade - one equipped with enough heavy artillery and air force support.
And facing the backward Asan Army? Not to mention a brigade, even the entire garrison around New Delhi is not enough to stand in front of it.
"Quick, quick, quick, destroy this tank!" Nehru, who had been standing on the roof of the building directing the overall situation, saw this terrible tank and listened to the roar of the powerful engine, and his head immediately buzzed.
, the hurried opponent issued an attack order.
The surrounding armies were all Guards regiments guarding the capital, and their efficiency was quite good. They reacted immediately, and various large and small artillery pieces began to shoot at the Apocalypse Tank.
It's just that the most powerful weapons owned by the Asan Army now are some six-pound cannons and 5.5-inch 140MM howitzers left behind by the British army before they withdrew.
These two types of artillery are actually very powerful and were important equipment for the British army to attack fortresses and fight against Panther and even Tiger tanks during World War II.
These two kinds of guns were mainly used to bombard hotels before.
But in the face of the terrible Apocalypse, this kind of artillery from the Second World War was of no use at all. Either the shells were directly deflected and fell into the crowd, killing one of our own people, or even the paint on Apocalypse was not scratched off much after the explosion.
This result left these Indian troops stunned.
And Apocalypse has never been one who only takes beatings without fighting back.
The terrifying main gun was not used, but eight secondary 14.5mm anti-aircraft machine guns distributed around the tank body.
This thing is a product of the Bear Country after the 1950s, and the eight units on Apocalypse have been developed for several generations and belong to the level of Qiao Xi's previous world in the 1990s.
Although this thing is an anti-aircraft machine gun, its first generation product was widely used by Woolly Bear soldiers in anti-tank operations during World War II.
Even in the 1990s, it was still powerful enough to deal with armored vehicles and some light bunkers. It was even more of a powerful weapon when used against infantry.
Now place it in Asan Kingdom in 1948...
The first ones to suffer were the Asan tanks on the blockade around the hotel - eight old-fashioned Sherman M4s.
This kind of tank that shone so brightly during World War II was, after all, on the verge of being eliminated in the latter part of World War II. Faced with a 14.5mm anti-aircraft machine gun that was decades old and equipped with armor-piercing bullets, it was like a paper lake and was torn to pieces.
.
As for the soldier Asan who was unfortunately hit by such a bullet, he couldn't even find a slightly larger body, and basically only had his mutilated flesh.
Then came the artillery, a firepower that even infantry tanks could not stop, not to mention the weak protection of these artillery pieces.
Moreover, Ah San's soldiers stacked the shells very close to the artillery. A burst of bullets shot over, causing a direct explosion, and the entire artillery flew into the sky.
This kind of terrifying lethality and this kind of fiery war scene are extremely rare in Asian battlefields. They were so frightened that Ah San's soldiers ran away on the spot, and the officers couldn't even call them back. No, the fact is that the officers ran faster than the soldiers.
No one stopped.
Seeing that Ah San's army was instantly defeated, the Apocalypse tanks did not continue to fire. Just under Nehru's nose, they drove arrogantly towards the north of the city and drove away at a seemingly slow speed.
Wherever it passed, all the houses, vehicles, and high walls were easily crushed, making it impossible to stop it.
"Call the Air Force, be sure to stop that thing for me, and take a photo of it. The Bear Man must give us an explanation!" Nehru looked at the direction in which the Apocalypse Tank was leaving, and headed towards
The trembling secretary lying on the ground next to him shouted filial piety.
Why a furry bear?
Because the body of the Apocalypse tank was emblazoned with the sickle and hammer logo.
Although the sudden appearance of a Bear super tank in New Delhi was very unexpected, Nehru also knew that this was probably a frame-up.
But at this moment he didn't care at all.
This sign gave him enough excuse to blame the matter on the bear.
In his opinion, there is nothing that can be a better bargaining chip than this after the fact.
It's just that Nehru ignored one thing, and that was whether he was really qualified to negotiate with the bear.
Do you really think he is a reasonable person?
Of course, Nehru did not have this qualification, but Joshi still had some qualifications.
"Mr. Kahn, please believe that it is definitely not ours!" On the other side, looking at the Apocalypse Tank flying away in a flamboyant manner, Claire Wayan wiped the cold sweat from his head and spoke nervously.
Josie next to her said.
As Mao Xiong's senior intelligence officer, Claire Wayan is very clear about how much wealth his family has.
Yes, after the IS3 tank, Mao Xiong did have plans for many heavy tanks and even super tanks during this period.
But Wayan can be sure that all those tank plans definitely do not include the tank he is seeing now - although the style of this tank looks very bear-like.
Moreover, all of Mao Xiong’s previous super tank plans have basically been scrapped.
In the previous war between Austria and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, Austria's large-scale equipment of AMX-30 main battle tanks has made the military powers with keen intuition around the world realize that the past concepts of medium and heavy tanks are no longer suitable for the matter.
The concept of battle tanks has officially spread in the military industries of various countries.
Among them, the fastest mover is undoubtedly the United States, Austria’s “big brother”.
With the AMX-30 main battle tank as a template, America's own new main battle tank has entered the prototype testing stage.
Mao Xiong's military experts were not stupid. They immediately stopped the production and research and development of all heavy tanks and began to develop new main battle tanks with more comprehensive functions.
It can be said that because of the influence of Qiao Xi and Austria, the concept of military weapons and equipment in this world is at least twenty years ahead of the original time and space.
but!
Now that this super tank appears on the streets of New Delhi, it has obviously surpassed the military status that the tank should have had.
In Vayan's opinion, the thing that was retreating at this moment should not be called a tank.
A steel castle might be more suitable for it.
And although she is not a technical person, as an intelligence officer, she is not ignorant of technology, so she really can't imagine what kind of engine can drive such a super monster.
But these are not the most important things. The most important thing is why this monster sprays its own mark, Ah Wai!
This is definitely not a good thing.
My country has been constantly besieged by the Western world. If this thing is promoted by the West again...
The consequences of this are simply unimaginable for Wayan.
"As a person who has personally experienced this incident, I naturally believe in Ms. Wayan... But in this situation, Ms. Wayan, you should understand how those people above will make a fuss about this matter, and I am unable to change it.
!" Qiao Xi looked at the Apocalypse tank going away with a serious look on his face, and said with a sad look on his face.
Tsk, the boss's acting skills are getting better and better. If he goes to Hollywood to become an actor, he will definitely win the Best Actor Award.
Vito, who also had a serious face on the side, sighed in his heart when he looked at Josie's lifelike expression.
Needless to say, only Qiao Xi can handle this Apocalypse Tank in this world.
And this was originally the retreat tool that Qiao Xi prepared for the first Jedi team.
Even the United States in this era may not be able to deal with this thing, let alone Asan?
Qiao Xi simply didn't believe that Asan's ability could effectively intercept this thing.
And as long as this thing drives northeast into the mountainous area of Nepal, plus the twenty-four Jedi soldiers who control it, there will be no problem in supporting Qiao Xi to go to the rescue.
When the time comes, Qiao Xi collects it in the system warehouse, perfect!
As for the furry bear logo on it, it’s naturally Josie’s bad taste.
Apocalypse doesn’t have the furry bear symbol, so it’s incomplete, right?
In the end, this farce in New Delhi came to an end with the defeat of the Asan Army and the riots in New Delhi caused by the Apocalypse Tank.
Of course, it was only New Delhi that ended.
For the entire Asan Kingdom, the fun has just begun!
