The laser cannon charged up and quickly aimed at the soldiers surrounding the courtyard gate. Because the people surrounding the gate were scattered and maintained a certain distance from each other,
Therefore, the damage caused by a single laser cannon is limited, with only a violent explosion within a five-meter radius.
The intense light seemed to illuminate the morning sky even brighter; a fleeting flash of blinding light shook the entire settlement.
Anyone walking on the street could see a beam of intense light shooting out from Wei Lun's courtyard, accompanied by a deafening roar outside.
Three soldiers surrounding the courtyard were immediately seriously wounded and four died. The original 50-man force, now scattered and encircling the area, quickly developed a gap.
Seeing this, Gu Zun broke out in a cold sweat. Laser weapons were rare even in settlements; Wei Lun not only possessed laser weapons, but also laser cannons.
"Stand apart, don't let them concentrate their attack from inside."
As Gu Zun gave the orders, he grew increasingly tense. In his eyes, Wei Lun and his few men, regardless of their weapons, couldn't possibly defeat 50 men.
But now, looking at the situation, it's unexpected that Wei Lun has managed to bring in a laser cannon from outside in such a short time. This has created a tricky situation.
"Soldiers at the front, immediately break through the gate, rush in, and capture every single bandit inside!"
Gu Zun gave the order. He knew the power of the laser cannons inside, but as long as they stood in front of the gate, the area below the courtyard wall would not be attacked. As long as the people were relatively dispersed, the laser cannons would not be effective.
The soldiers began rushing towards the gate, relentlessly attacking the gates of Weilun's compound.
Zeng Guangtian, Lei Long, Zhu Guanjun, and Qin Mutong all carried weapons, ready to defend the area if the door were breached. They checked the time; the guards still hadn't arrived and would need some more time.
The soldiers at the encampment quickly formed a small squad and arrived at the gate of the compound.
First, a portable lock pick was used to forcibly disable the smart security system of the gate, and then the gate was violently rammed.
Collapse, collapse, collapse
The gate started to shake. Although the intelligent protection system had been compromised, the gate was originally closed and needed to be opened from the inside. If someone tried to force their way in from the outside, they would have to brute force the gate open.
Wei Lun pulled out a laser gun and glanced at the door with utter disdain.
"Everyone, take cover. As soon as they break through the gate, we'll fight back immediately."
Weren gave the order, glanced at the laser cannon, and decided to temporarily abandon its use. After all, unless there was a large crowd, the laser gun was more accurate and lethal.
Zeng Guangtian, Lei Long, Zhu Guanjun, and Qin Mutong, following instructions, all stood behind walls or large sculptures.
Everyone's guns were pointed at the door; it wouldn't be so easy for Gu Zun to rush in.
At this moment, the gate, under the onslaught of the soldiers from the encampment, finally gave way and was about to break through.
Gu Zun saw that the time was almost right.
"Everyone, some of you guard the gate and attack from both sides, while others go get ladders, climb the walls, and annihilate the enemy!"
Gu Zun wasn't a fool; he wouldn't risk failure by sending his soldiers charging in headfirst.
He knew very well that there were more than a dozen people inside, and each of them was a formidable marksman. In this post-apocalyptic world, one couldn't have achieved such a high position without considerable skill.
The gate collapsed with a crash.
Clearly, Gu Zun's orders enabled the soldiers in the entire settlement to launch a highly tactical attack.
Although the marksmen inside were very accurate and the laser guns were very powerful, the soldiers outside the gate were all ordered to take cover on both sides and fire blindly into the building.
Moreover, Wei Lun, Zeng Guangtian, and others originally thought it was safe,
Suddenly, a large number of soldiers appeared on the courtyard wall and launched an attack inside.
This is troublesome.
Soldiers began firing into the courtyard from the main gate and the walls.
The ten men led by Wei Lun were simply not up to the task; with such a small force, defending the area was extremely difficult.
Therefore, Wei Lun could only divide his men into two groups to guard the courtyard wall, and another group to guard the main gate, thus beginning a stalemate.
Seeing that the attack was stalled, Gu Zun was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, pacing back and forth. After all, Cai Zhenshao should have already received news of the attack on Wei Lun's compound.
Cai Zhenshao was not a fool. Gu Zun dared not guess what decision he would make under these circumstances. At least Gu Zun was certain that the sooner the battle was resolved, the sooner the victory would be achieved. Dragging it out would ultimately be disadvantageous.
Wei Lun was very careful inside; a message came through his dimensional communication headset.
"Boss, we're currently at the outer checkpoint of the Sixth Settlement. We're stuck outside. Should we launch an attack directly, or wait for them to contact their superiors?"
Through the earpiece, Qin Jiayou spoke, and he also gathered information about the situation at the headquarters compound. You know, the boss and his daughter are inside. At this moment, every second must be seized, because no one knows who will sacrifice themselves next.
Upon hearing the conversation inside, Wei Lun urged Qin Jiayou to get up.
"There's no need to wait any longer. With over a hundred of you here, the gathering place definitely won't let you in. Just fight your way in. I'll be waiting for you in the compound."
Weren said into the headset, "All members of the guard on the entire channel have received this."
Fu Xixi, Qin Jiayou, and Du Kun immediately led a 220-man guard to begin a brutal and inhumane suppression of the checkpoint.
Rows of laser guns and automatic rifle bullets rained down on the checkpoint at the settlement.
The soldiers at the checkpoint had never seen anything like it before. In the blink of an eye, the guards were routed and retreated in disarray.
They ran towards the settlement, crying and shouting, hoping for help; their phone lines had been blown up.
Fu Xixi, Qin Jiayou, and Du Kun completely overturned the obstacle, breaking through it in just one minute, exceeding everyone's expectations.
Each level was manned by at least three patrol teams, each with 50 members, totaling 150 members. They were routed in a single encounter.
Perhaps due to the early morning shift change, there were only a few dozen soldiers actually at the checkpoint, less than a hundred.
"Reporting to the boss, we have entered the settlement area and are now heading to the headquarters compound. Please hold on for another 5 minutes."
Qin Jiayou reported through the time-space communication headset, and trucks began to quickly shuttle through the roads of the settlement. Anyone who tried to block the way was shot dead without mercy by the guards.
Gu Zun was still pacing anxiously outside. After so long, he still hadn't been able to get in, and he was starting to get impatient.
"Everyone, launch a simultaneous attack inside in 10 seconds. Charge through the gate and wipe them out in one fell swoop."
Gu Zun began issuing combat orders to the forty or fifty soldiers. It seemed this was the final attack, given that there were only a few dozen men inside.
