Zhang Tian's forehead was covered in a fine sheen of sweat, his hands gripping the control stick so tightly that the veins on the back of his hands were clearly visible.
Perhaps the tank's machine gunner was unfamiliar with the controls, as the helicopter safely reached its position above the tank.
Fang Er decisively issued an order.
"Shelling!"
Ge Luoyang and the others inside the cabin quickly screwed impact fuses onto the mortar shells and then threw them from the open door towards the tank below.
Motorola, worried that the helicopter above might have a way to deal with tanks, cleverly hid inside an Iveco RV.
At this moment, the system in his mind spoke up.
"Sand Sculpture Emperor, there's a traverser in the sky just like you!"
Hearing this, Motorola was completely dumbfounded!
He had always thought he was unique, but he never expected another traverser to exist, and one from the mysterious East!
"On that aircraft, this Emperor commands the tanks to concentrate fire and shoot it down!"
Motorola asked the system, his teeth almost gritted.
Even if three tanks were turned into scrap metal, he had to get rid of the enemy above, otherwise, with that person here, his chances of completing the mission would be almost zero.
"No wonder they can build helicopters in this era. So the Great Tang has produced a traverser!"
System: "There's only an approximate range, the precise location cannot be locked."
"Ding! Mission triggered: Defeat the other traverser and seize their system~"
Motorola: "........."
This was as good as saying nothing.
He turned to Jack Sparrow, who was driving him, "You, go inform them that they must shoot down the aircraft in the sky at all costs!"
Jack Sparrow nearly wet himself upon hearing this. He had clearly seen the firepower when the helicopter attacked the cavalry earlier. Could he even reach the tank alive?
Just as he was about to say something, he saw Motorola pull out a Desert Eagle and point it at his own head. He quickly swallowed his words.
Trembling with fear, he pushed open the car door, got out, and ran towards the tanks.
After only a few steps, he saw the helicopter above acting like it was laying eggs, with countless black dots being thrown down from it, targeting one of the three tanks.
He didn't know what those black dots being thrown down were, but they were certainly not gifts!
Subconsciously, he turned around and ran back to the car.
"Fuck! Who told you to come back!"
Motorola became instantly enraged when he saw Jack Sparrow return.
"Emperor! Look up! What is that!"
Jack Sparrow pointed fearfully at the black dots rapidly descending above the tank.
Motorola followed his finger and in the next moment, all his hair stood on end. He quickly shouted to Jack Sparrow.
"Quick, drive, retreat, retreat further away! Enough, enough!"
Who knew what model of bombs they were dropping from up there~~
"Damn system, after completing so many missions, you haven't even given me binoculars."
Although, even if he had them, he wouldn't be able to understand them. He just wanted to complain.
The RV had not retreated far when the mortar shells completed their freefall and detonated around the targeted tank.
Boom, boom, boom~
Clang, clang, clang~
Countless fragments struck the tank, making it clang, and the rising smoke of the explosions enveloped the entire tank!
Both Fang Er above and Motorola below waited for the smoke to clear, wanting to know the result of this round of bombardment.
In fact, they didn't have to wait long. A gust of wind blew away the smoke surrounding the tank, revealing the smoke-blackened T-90.
Upon seeing the tank's appearance clearly, Fang Er's heart sank into the abyss. The armor of the T-90 was too monstrous!
After dropping so many mortar shells, it wasn't damaged?
Motorola, on the other hand, was almost laughing his head off. As expected of a main battle tank!
Fang Er helplessly picked up the walkie-talkie and called out to Li Shimin, "Your Majesty, we can't damage this steel shell at the moment. We have to wait for the hovercraft to arrive and bombard it with rockets!"
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment before finally issuing the order to retreat.
Soon, seven helicopters formed a formation and returned towards Suiye City.
Shortly after they left, Li Xiuning and Qin Liangyu, who had gone out to forage for their mounts, returned to the main army together.
Seeing the chaotic scene, the two generals, one old and one young, were greatly surprised.
Ever since they were summoned here, the army before them had been invincible. When had they ever been in such disarray?
Nearly half of the twenty thousand cavalrymen were lost, and the infantry also suffered significant casualties.
They didn't care about these foreign people, they were just curious as to who could inflict such heavy damage on this army.
Therefore, after finding Xiang Yu and the others, they immediately asked what had happened.
When they heard that the Great Tang had deployed eight flying objects that circled above the army for a long time before launching an attack, Li Xiuning couldn't help but feel regret.
It was still over a hundred miles to Suiye, so even a patrol wouldn't venture this far out.
Since it wasn't a patrol, it meant they had actively engaged. This indicated that Suiye City had already received the letter from Aldashir. The fact that they had circled above for so long was likely them searching for their whereabouts.
Completely unaware that Fang Er and the others had returned to the army, they had already landed outside Suiye City.
As soon as Cheng Yaojin disembarked, he started cursing.
"Damn it, where did this bastard come from, and that vehicle with a chicken on its head is too damn tough!"
Even Qin Qiong's expression was somewhat dejected. "Exactly, even cannon shells couldn't damage it at all. How can we fight this war?"
Chai Shao, who had returned first, waved his hand dismissively. "Heh heh, that's because you haven't seen the power of hovercraft. Just wait, it'll only take a day or two for the ships to arrive, and then I'll show you what suppression by firepower means!"
The two of them immediately turned to Fang Er, "Kid, did you come up with something new again?"
Li Shimin waved his hand. "You'll know when we get there. Let's head back to the city first."
He also believed that once the hovercraft arrived, they would definitely be able to take down those three so-called tanks.
He still vividly remembered the scene of the rocket barrage, which was like the sky collapsing and the earth cracking.
After seeing the helicopters leave, Motorola stepped out of the Iveco RV. He ignored the dead and wounded scattered across the army and walked directly towards the tank that had been bombarded.
He cared least about armies. His system warehouse had a large supply of food, and he could recruit people by simply taking out some.
Jack Sparrow and Cleopatra followed him on either side. When they reached the tank, no matter how much he knocked, there was no response from inside.
Upon opening the hatch on top, he discovered that the tank crew inside were all lying there, bleeding from all seven orifices.
These guys were literally shaken to death!
