Chapter 581 Siege
In the conference room, Director Yingwei's voice seemed to echo, but no one spoke for a while, as if they had not yet recovered from the extremely shocking scene.
Director Yingwei waited for a while, then stood up with the help of his crutches, looked at everyone, and said in a heavy tone:
"Gentlemen, the Central City government has sent armed forces to surround us. It's obvious that they want to wipe out our Ferris Wheel Company. But we can't back down. We must let the Central City government know our determination to stop at no cost!"
He said loudly, "I propose that we activate Wu Qi, the active consciousness. If they want to destroy us, then they must be prepared to pay the price of destroying the entire Yinglu District."
The director presiding over the meeting frowned at him and said, "Director Yingwei, you are too extreme."
Director Yingwei said sternly, "Do we have any better solution at this point?"
The director shook his head and said, "It hasn't come to that yet."
He looked at all the directors present and said in a deep voice, "Gentlemen, the Central City armed forces are so eager to attack us, even at the moment when the Mother Clan splits. They must have been acting circumventing the Municipal Council. We can try to establish a secret line of communication with the Council and ask them to stop the Central City armed forces' attack."
The directors present were still immersed in the news of the fleet's defeat, and then suddenly saw the arrival of government troops. They were unable to think rationally at all. Now, after receiving his reminder, they slowly regained their composure.
After thinking about it, everyone felt that this was a good way to deal with it.
Although the Central City Council will certainly take the opportunity to demand more benefits from them, compared to the survival of the company, these are nothing. As long as they can keep the company, they still have a chance.
If they can use it for one decade, then they can use it for another decade.
Director Yingwei shook his head and said, "Perhaps it was possible before, but it's too late now. Everyone, the government troops are now at our doorstep, and the airspace above us has been blocked by airships. They will definitely block all information fields and all in and out routes, and will not allow us to pass on any information."
One director couldn't help but retort, "How will we know if we don't try?"
Director Yingwei didn't insist. He said, "Let's try it, but while we're waiting, we can't be defeated by the government troops. We need to arm all our company personnel and hold out until the message gets out."
No one objected to this, and the board of directors immediately reached a consensus and issued an order to Guan Shangjing, opening up most of his security permissions. At the same time, they began to try to circumvent the information blockade and contact people from the municipal council.
After receiving instructions from the company's top management, Guan Shangjing immediately mobilized and organized personnel.
However, in order to seize the split body, they had sent out a security team of about a thousand people, which almost drained the main force of the Ferris Wheel Company.
There are less than 200 formal armed security personnel left now, and even if other employees are armed, the number is not enough. As a result, many of the fortifications and firepower points outside the company cannot be activated and stationed, and they can only be guarded in some key positions.
While he was making arrangements, the attack from the opposite side had already begun. First, an airship hanging high in the sky flew over. After arriving above the periphery of the company building, the hatch below opened and high-explosive bombs were dropped.
Although there are long-range machine guns installed above the Ferris Wheel Company building, they can hardly pose any threat to the airships flying higher, and they can only watch everything happen.
As violent explosions rang out, some fortifications and firing points outside the company, as well as the outer walls and even the isolation power grids above were quickly cleared.
This round of bombing lasted for more than half an hour. When the airship withdrew, only billowing smoke was left.
Xu Chan stood on the roof and observed the situation before giving the second order to the people below.
After a while, dense biological combat weapons began to fly or jump from their positions and rush towards the Ferris wheel building.
In order to cope with this split of the mantis mother, the Government Affairs Department specially purchased a large number of fighting mantises from the Compound Eyes Company, and the practical effect was very good.
However, this type of combat weapon is not only expensive in itself, but its dedicated high-energy nutrient is also very expensive, so most of them are modified combat organisms developed by Dashun itself.
Gunshots were immediately heard on the Ferris Wheel Company Building. Even some hidden firepower points had to open fire, because these things were small in size, fast in speed, had very strong attack power, were omnipresent, and came in an endless number. Once they invaded, ordinary combatants would have almost no way to deal with them.
Especially those fighting mantises, which are extremely fast and have strong destructive power. They cannot be stopped by anyone other than a fighter.
The company also released the remaining biological weapons, and the two sides continued to collide and fight in mid-air and on the ground, rolling and fighting.
Just as a fierce battle was going on in the front, there was a gurgling sound on the sea surface behind the Ferris Wheel Company, and many creatures that looked like lizards and fish, with four legs and tail fins, emerged.
They quickly climbed up the sloping dam wall, passed through the areas at the rear that were originally covered by electric fences and fire points, ignored the complex terrain and obstacles, and climbed up the walls of the company building. Once they found gaps and entrances, they would drill in.
This is an amphibious combat organism developed by the Mosasaur Corporation. During combat, it can climb onto ships from underwater and attack combatants. The combined fleet also brought these things with them during this naval battle. However, due to the rapid retreat of the Ferris Wheel Company's fleet, they were not able to be used in the end. However, this time, they have an opportunity to verify their effectiveness.
With the advent of biological weapons and personnel armed with implants, the war situation is no longer what it used to be. Old-style armies that are smaller than a certain size are basically useless.
However, the status of fighters on the battlefield is still very important. Even an army model like the old imperial family, which looks very classical on the surface, still has extremely strong combat effectiveness because of the participation of a sufficient number of fighters.
Xu Chan was standing at the back watching the battle. As a fighter, he did not rush forward immediately, but took conventional tactical steps.
Bomb with airships, clear fire points, and attack with modified creatures. If frustrated, continue bombing and blasting, continue to clear fire points, and then send out modified creatures. In short, use superior forces to push forward.
If the enemy had fighters, they also had fighters serving as long-range shooters. While such personnel might be scarce elsewhere, the Defense Department could mobilize a significant number. Under such threats, the fighters within the Ferris Wheel Company couldn't even show up outside.
This attack lasted less than an hour, and the Ferris Wheel Company's outer wall defenses were breached, and a large number of modified creatures began to infiltrate into the interior of the building.
There was a biological device in front of Xu Chan at this time, with a fan-shaped light projecting from the bottom up, which showed the current internal situation of the Ferris Wheel Company.
Among these modified creatures, in addition to those specifically responsible for combat, there are also those responsible for transmitting field information, which allows them to see the situation inside at any time and adjust tactics according to the specific conditions on the scene.
There is no need to worry about not being able to recover these expenses. Once the Ferris Wheel Company collapses, its assets on various islands will be taken over by the Dashun government and state-owned enterprises, which will be enough to make up for the expenses.
At this moment, at the bottom of the Ferris Wheel Building, most of the company's directors have moved to a submarine and are watching the images transmitted back from the front.
If things go wrong, they will try to leave here first.
However, they still had some concerns about this, because the Mosasaur Company had long been on guard against them and would definitely deploy underwater modified creatures in the offshore areas. If they went out like this, even if they could not sink them, they might be tracked and harassed, and they would not be able to go far.
However, the situation was not yet at the end of the road. They had already sent an underwater team to swim out along the coastline. As long as they could take a detour out of the shielding range of the information field and then enter the city and try to contact the municipal council, they could stop all this.
Inside the building, Guan Shangjing was leading a group of armed personnel from the company to deal with the combat creatures that kept rushing in from all around.
Fortunately, he still has the last batch of internal guards. These people were built by the company at a huge cost. They have the most advanced implants and wear heavy protective armor. Each of them is proficient in firearms and cold weapons, and can deal with these almost endless combat creatures with ease.
However, after only a short while, the situation changed. The modified creatures that came in from behind carried explosives, and once they got close, they exploded violently, resulting in many casualties among these elite members.
Guan Shangjing had no choice but to retreat towards the underground entrance. Up to this point, he hadn't seen any enemy fighters break in; they were all attacking with modified organisms, clearly indicating a very steady leader.
Although this tactic is very consuming and costly, the casualties are minimal and it does not give them any room to counterattack.
He felt that he wouldn't be able to hold out for long, so he called a security captain and asked him to take command in his place. He then quickly went to an empty training hall at the back and bowed to a tall and strong figure with his back to him.
"Tie Chengjun, the situation is critical. We can only ask you for help. I hope you can keep your promise!"
The man was more than two meters tall just sitting there, with a broad and fat body, almost as big as a small mountain. He was stuffing nutritional paste into his mouth continuously. After hearing what he said, he paused.
At this moment, there seemed to be a burst of impact spreading out from the Ferris wheel building. All the creatures fighting in the building were like being hit by a hammer. They first froze and then fell down in unison.
Not only this place, but also the combat creatures within dozens of meters outside the building were affected. Anyone who got close either fell to the ground or fell from the sky and the walls of the building. In an instant, the circle around the outer edge of the building almost became an open space.
