Chapter 1204: Chapter 19: The Perfect Ambush (Part 2)

The wave-like mechas surged toward the hillside.

The mecha running on the far left of the formation kept falling and exploding under the attacker’s artillery fire. However, more mechas broke through the ambusher’s fire blockade, charged up the hillside, and quickly turned to flank the position behind!

The congested formation finally stretched out as the troops circled upwards. In just a few minutes, the Jiepeng Armored Battalion in the narrow road got sparse both front and back.

Once the two hundred plus mechas gained maneuvering space, they were no longer passively taking hits. They began to close ranks systematically, covering each other and firing back, while the mecha group charging up the hillside and flanking from the rear quickly approached the attacker’s 3rd echelon, rapidly forming a partial encirclement.

Although they didn’t know the attacker’s specific identity, the Chuckna officers and soldiers in the command room simultaneously sighed.

This was a sudden and nerve-wracking ambush. Comparing the attackers and defenders, psychologically, everyone leaned toward the ambushers with their red markings different from the regular Jiepeng mechas.

These guys dared to attack a fully-staffed armored battalion with a company’s strength, and brazenly attempt to annihilate it completely, already fiercely audacious. What was most admirable was that from the attack’s onset until now, nearly half their opponents had fallen, yet they still hadn’t suffered any casualties. The few mechas hit by the counter-fire only had their energy shields collapsed and attachments damaged.

However, there was now a flaw in their originally perfect and classic ambush, which was why everyone sighed. It was almost foreseeable that in the upcoming battle, those seventy or so mechas charging up the right-wing hillside of the armored camp would quickly attack the ambusher’s 3rd echelon.

Once the thirty-five Spirit Cat mechas deeply embedded in the armored camp’s rear are surrounded by the firmly rooted tail formation and flanking mechas, the attackers, already at a disadvantage in force, will suffer a severe blow.

At this point, wanting to annihilate the opponent has become an impossible task. The ambush formation that had been suppressing opponents so far also greatly diminished in power. It won’t be surprising if only a few minutes are needed for opponents to reverse their passive position, cause huge casualties to the attackers, or even win against them.

It’s really a pity. If the ambushing armored company’s mechas were just a bit more, they would win a victory worthy of being entered into textbooks without question!

On the screen, the Jiepeng Armored Battalion charging up the hillside began to shift, and the road’s chaotic tail formation started to approach the hillside. The thirty-five Spirit Cats that had thrust into the opponent’s formation seemed to sink even deeper.

Just as everyone felt a bit disinterested, suddenly a military officer shouted loudly.

”Look! Look!”

Following the shout, three Jiepeng Spirit Cat mechas with red markings appeared on the screen. They were like ghosts emerging from the jungle, and in the next second, they had already rushed into the enemy tail formation, as if stepping across the void. The speed was fast enough that even drones struggled to capture it.

The stabilized tail formation of the armored camp suddenly turned chaotic.

Under the fierce and domineering attack of these three Spirit Cats, the Jiepeng mechas flew up, shattered, exploded, bloomed like a waterfall of fireworks, spun like a tornado, fell into chaos.

The originally smooth screen images suddenly seemed flawed. People could see the flowing images of Jiepeng mechas but couldn’t see the coherent movements of the three Spirit Cats.

They either punched, kicked, leaped, or leaned forward... like a movie with key frames cut. What stayed on everyone’s retinas were flashes of stunning imagery frozen in time! This frozen imagery was exceptionally eerie amidst the fireballs formed from the continuous explosions of Jiepeng mechas!

Three Spirit Cats, three Reapers!

They recklessly wandered through the mecha group, wantonly harvesting lives. As they flickered away, when they appeared elsewhere, only a string of fireballs and countless fragments shooting in all directions were left behind!

Before everyone could recover from the shock, three identical Spirit Cats shot into the screen’s upper right corner.

Same speed, same ruthless and unrestrained slaughter, same upward reaching fireballs... The only difference was, they were cutting into the group of Jiepeng mechas flanking on the right hillside!

At once, everyone in the command room felt their hands and feet turn cold. Even breathing seemed to halt. Watching these three mechas felt like seeing ghosts.

Six War God-level mecha warriors... God, who holds such a luxurious lineup?!

The only Level 9 Mecha Warrior in the 13th Armored Division looked like a child compared to the operators of these six Spirit Cats.

A Fushan crazily stepped forward for a straight kick, aiming its mechanical leg at a red-marked Spirit Cat’s belly. Beside it, a medium War Elephant’s three energy cannons fired recklessly.

Fushan’s straight kick missed, and the three energy bullets fired by War Elephant also missed.

When the shells exploded into a mist of smashed leaves and soil on the hillside, that ghostly Spirit Cat had already punched down Fushan, appearing beside War Elephant.

It struck with a punch, air dust burst from the impact, radiating a round wave outward. The heavy body of the stricken War Elephant just trembled, then was swept horizontally by the subsequent whip-leg kick on its belly. That kick, borrowing the punch’s force, directly sent War Elephant flying.

The next second, two small craters and spreading shockwaves appeared on the ground. That Spirit Cat had flashed before the flying War Elephant, striking it again in close succession.

This kick was devastating!

Even Chuckna officers kilometers away couldn’t help but twitch in response. After the echoing bang, the 112-ton War Elephant shattered into pieces. Several dozen remnants, like cannonballs, crashed into the surrounding Jiepeng mechas. Amidst the violent collisions, the Spirit Cat thrust deeper into the mecha group.

It followed the flying wreckage closely. A straight-kick shattered a Spirit Cat cockpit into a bloody crater, then hooked a foot onto a Fushan head to the right rear, leveraging for a Thomas spin kick onto another Fushan’s chest. It then leveraged up, body like a giant hammer whipped out forcefully, rolling to punch down an Evil Dragon Heavy Mecha’s head!

The huge and solid head of the Evil Dragon burst like a watermelon. In a blink, four Jiepeng mechas turned into scrap metal on the ground!

Six figures, six death lines filled with wreckage and fireballs interweaved in the Jiepeng mecha group.

Is this a fight by an Advanced Mecha Warrior? Is this the destructive power of a War God-level Mecha Warrior?! Before the screens, everyone’s mind went blank. Now they understood why the ambushers’ Commander had given up the comfortable position on the right hill, and why the 3rd echelon plunged further despite a front-rear pincer by enemy forces!

With these six War God-like Spirit Cats around, any resistance from Jiepeng Armored Battalion would be futile!

If, during the pursuit, these six mechas had led at the front, what position could the 13th Armored Division and 51st Infantry Division hold?

If there were two more such mechas, would this attacked Jiepeng Armored Battalion collapse immediately?

In the silence, four Spirit Cat silhouettes appeared in the forest on the screen’s right.

When these four Spirit Cats crashed with similarly terrifying moves into the Jiepeng Armored Battalion’s mecha group, the command room had even lost the sound of breathing.

Perfect ambush!

.This Chapter took two days to write. I repeatedly pondered which perspective to use. Yesterday was written from Fatty’s main perspective, not thrilling enough, then changed to a perspective combined with drone reconnaissance. Found it messy, changed to an independent perspective today again. I tried my best. Please vote for a monthly and recommendation ticket!!!
