I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World (Web Novel)
chapter-1156

1156 Battle Outside the Sixth Ring Road “ACHOOO!!”On the deck of AS Order, Jiang Chen, who was just having the moment of his life, suddenly sneezed.

“Do you feel cold?” The little Loli next to him immediately handed him a tissue, then softly said, “Would you like me to go get you a coat?”

“No, no,” Jiang Chen took the tissue in embarrassment and cleaned himself, then tossed the tissue down the ship, “I don’t think a coat is necessary. I am not cold. I guess someone is thinking about me. (1)”

Although Yao Yao was still worried, she nodded in acknowledgment.

That’s probably true since when big brother left, everyone was very sad…

But the thought of big brother belonging to her for the next month made her feel warm inside.

I hope that there will be no twists and turns in this journey.

The girl prayed silently.

Above Yancheng, the steel’s bow peaked out from the clouds like the head of a great white shark. The giant and menacing jaw ripped through the clouds ahead. The vortex engine on the wings on both sides left behind long marks, dividing the sky. Ten airships engraved with the NAC badge followed, led by AS Order, they were arranged into a V-shaped formation above the clouds, advancing toward the north.

The survivors who lingered between the ruins looked up and envied the behemoth as they showed a look of fear and uneasiness. The brutal mutated humans hid, fearful of peeking their heads out of their windows. Even the dull-headed Dead Claw trembled under the power of NAC.

5,000 expeditionary forces; 5,000 high-spirited soldiers.

United under the banner of the General, no one would doubt the victory of this expedition.

Jiang Chen looked at the far north and narrowed his eyes as the cold wind blew onto his face.

The outline of Chuyun Port was looming in the distance and there were only two hundred more kilometers before they leave the province. CCCP tanks already rolled into Badaling, so the survivors of Shangjing probably wouldn’t be able to withstand them for too long. A tough battle awaited the expeditionary army.

The Russians in this world were likely not be as friendly as the Russians in the other world…

However, Jiang Chen would never have thought that a can of beef already made NAC a target for those Russians that just rolled into the Central Plains.

Speaking of which, indicating the origin on the can was something he proposed. As for the purpose, it was meant to “gain investments” and “attract immigrants”. The historical data also proved that many inland survivors immigrated to Wanghai after they saw the origin on the can.

The capability to produce food and trade food meant strength in the wasteland.

As for the troubles associated with the idea…

They never mattered. Too many people targeted NAC, and NAC never worried about having another enemy. Even without the words on the can, being such a large force, NAC would never be able to hide. Also, due to being such a large force Jiang Chen never feared.

Soon, he would let those Russians know who the real target is.

…

The steel fleet rolled on the city road. Five tanks and five infantry vehicles were divided into two front and rear echelons, quietly moving in the direction of Sixth Ring Road north of Changping.

They did not encounter any resistance along the away.

As early as the fall of the Badaling Military Outpost, the survivors of the northern suburbs were evacuated to the Haidian area as they dragged their families into larger survivor settlements. Other than two Dead Claws who asked for their own deaths, they did not see a single soul.

Sedov, with the captain’s helmet, sat inside the tank. He scanned the surrounding streets emotionlessly through a digital wide-angle screen.

When he passed a derelict supermarket, he suddenly sneered.

He raised his hand and ordered.

“Stop!”

The tanks and vehicles stopped.

The street was deathly silent, just as if a storm was forming.

Soon, two of the infantry vehicles opened its hatch and released a half-human-tall spider robot.

Eight steel mechanical legs moved rapidly, and soon the spider robot rushed to the intersection of the street a hundred meters ahead. It stopped next to a toppled garbage can and then two robotic arms popped out before reaching inside the tank.

Just as the robotic arms touched the plastic bag inside, an explosion suddenly swallowed the robot, sending half of the street ablaze.

“Three o’clock, high explosive munition. Fire!”

The muzzles of the five tanks aimed at the supermarket on the side of the road.

Without the slightest sign, five explosions detonated.

With a loud bang, the entire supermarket seemed to be ravaged by a storm and almost collapsed The survivors hiding in the supermarket screamed and fled, but they were quickly hit by the second round of shells. The already rundown supermarket was destroyed and collapsed in ruins.

“Damn it!”

In the building five hundred meters away, a man in a winter jacket smashed his fist against the table.

Based on this plan, when those Russian tanks passed by the roadside bomb, they would detonate the bomb. Then the soldiers ambushing in the supermarket would use rocket launchers to take out the infantry vehicles in the back.

However, the plan failed before it even got executed.

“Where is the problem,” gritting his teeth, the man looked at the battlefield two streets away with gloom in his eyes.

The ambush failed, so the only option is to stop them with bodies.

DADADADADA-

The infantry vehicles dispersed, and a dozen soldiers wearing kinetic skeletons jumped out of the hatch and searched for strategic locations.

The heavy machine guns spat out its furry, sweeping across the collapsed walls. They tore the concrete bunkers and the flesh of Shangjing survivors together.

“Their firepower is too strong!” With their backs against the wall, the survivors with “Iron Hammer” rocket launcher were all horrified. They roared into the radio on their shoulder, “WE NEED BACKUP! If we don’t see reinforcements in three minutes, you fight this yourself!”

They were not soldiers, they were just experienced hunters.

However, what was in front of them was not prey but fully armored predators.

“…reinforcement is on its way.”

“DAMMIT!” The soldier spat out and opened the safety for the rocket launcher. He was just about to poke out his head out when he was immediately forced down by a few bullets.

These border guards knew how to use the least number of bullets to maximize the suppression capability. Through a single exchange, the skill gap between the two sides were exposed.

However, at this time, dozens of plate-sized drones suddenly emerged from the shadows and surrounded the CCCP infantry vehicles from all directions.

“Activate the EMP Defense Module”

“Roger that.”

Soldiers in kinetic skeletons hid behind the vehicle and prepared for EMP defense. In loud and deafening static noises, the EMP weapon instantly deactivated the drones rushing to the armored vehicles.

But it was futile!

The deactivated drones continued to maintain their momentum, slamming against the armored vehicles. At first, the Russians didn’t seem to be bothered, but when the drones hit the steel armor, their expressions changed.

The incendiary bombs under the drones exploded, spilling vicious fuel all over the armored vehicle. The armored vehicle was instantly swallowed by flames and turned into a giant fireball. The two soldiers hiding behind the armored vehicles were unfortunately splashed by the fuel, as they screamed in agony.

These survivors didn’t use control fuzes, but the most primitive trigger fuzes!

The burning armored vehicle quickly reversed and crashed into a house on the side of the road. The fuel quickly entered the vent and burned into the interior of the armored vehicle. The driver pushed the door open and rushed out of the armored car, frantically rolling on the ground, as he desperately tried to pull the clothes off of his body.

However, his dying struggle was not successful even after he turned into charcoal…

Through the wide-angle screen, looking at the flame still burning, Sedov’s eyes were emotionless.

Just as he was about to order the next attack, the voice of the advisor sounded in his ear.

“That’s enough, come back.”

“But…”

“Retreat, this is the order.”

Sminov didn’t deal with any nonsense. After he issued the order, he shut off the radio.

[Retreat]

Gloom was written all over Sedov’s face as he looked at the red line flashing on the screen.

It was the first time he lost an armored vehicle since their journey down south.

Although he desperately wanted to crush these bugs with his tracks, an order was absolute for the Eastern Siberian Border Guards.

Sedov’s fist slammed against the wall as he gritted his teeth.

“Retreat!”

After they received the order to retreat, the infantries moved closer to the armored vehicles, returned inside, and began to withdraw…
