Chapter 492 Demonstration
Zhou Qingfeng served as a fake governor in Merida, not only to deal with Lula's threat, but also to win over bureaucrats from all sides. He also collected information about the city's defense system. Relevant information was sent back to the General Staff in Havana, and the conclusion was that Merida's defense was full of loopholes.
Now that Zhou Qingfeng is facing obstacles in the battle for military and political power in the city, he wants to use these loopholes to give his opponent some color. Given the lack of solid barricades and fortifications in the city, the entire attack was led by heavy armored vehicles.
The task force originally wanted to get tanks to launch an impact, but... there were no tanks.
Mexico is an extremely weak country in national defense, and basically has no heavy equipment. Is the reason... It is a bunch of small countries in the south, and you can win without heavy equipment. The United States in the north, and you can't win even if you have heavy equipment.
When the task force was operating in the wilderness, it found many abandoned equipment, including two French-made "Boncat" armored vehicles with 90 mm cannons, which are Mexico's strongest army weapon.
The "bobcats" that only require three people to control are easy to fiddle with. The soldiers in China's teaching are very high-quality. They are generally graduated from college and have no problem driving a car. Now these two "bobcats" with certain armor act as attack arrows and entered the city of Merida.
Zhou Qingfeng planned this operation to demonstrate, quickly go in and out, not stay too much, just to show his deterrence. Rather than making some unhappy Lula, it is better to let the bureaucrats in the city understand that Lula is nothing to be scary, and the power of "Governor General" is not small. So this is destined to be a rushing assault.
As the commander of this operation, Qin Weidong had the city defense map of Merida provided by Zhou Qingfeng. He rushed through the posts outside the city with more than 30 combat vehicles, not for the purpose of killing people, but just to create a fire show that would be "leave as you say".
Half an hour before the operation was launched, a fire squad with mortars launched a feint attack on the port of Progreso. After attracting the enemy's attention, the real attack began.
As soon as the entire assault convoy entered the city, it immediately opened fire like a loud gong and drum. Traces of tracer bullets shot into the sky. A string of light from the projectiles cut through the sky, shocking the whole city with the sound of gunfire.
Lula was also closely monitoring the attacks in the port direction in the military police camp. He had just sent a rescue team of about a thousand people to set off, but Qin Weidong's men came in. The moment he received the report, gunshots were already sounding in the city.
"Sir, the guard report of Yucatan University, someone fired at them and needed rescue in urgent need of rescue." The sound of gunfire was naturally a report of help calling out for heaven and earth, which was heard from the radio.
"Are you all pigs?" Lula was shocked and angry, and cursed loudly: "The guards on the outside are dead? I was killed in the city center before I came to report."
Yucatan University is one of the few large buildings in Merida. Naturally, there are no teachers and students in the university. It has long been regarded as a residential site by armed immigrants from "Incred". Now that it is suddenly attacked, several radio stations in the residential site immediately occupied the communication channel.
Listening to the various crying and shouting sounds on the radio, Gesar, who was already full of confidence, became nervous. Now he had to stand up and ask for battle in a deep voice: "Sir, I will lead the team to destroy this invading team immediately. Their number will definitely not be large. As long as you surround them, you will win."
"Go quickly, act resolutely and decisively, you can only succeed but not fail." Lula understood at the first time. This is what "Governor Alfonso" is embarrassing him. All he has to do is suppress him immediately, otherwise he will not have the final say in the city in the future.
Just as Gesar turned around and was about to leave, there was a loud bang at the gate of the military police barracks, and followed the explosion of air waves toward the surroundings. The glass in the monitoring communication room where Lula was located shaking, and then it all broke and flew.
When the explosion sounded, Gesar immediately threw Lula to the ground, and the flying glass fragments fell on the two of them. The staff on duty in charge of surveillance screamed, and the lights on the ceiling kept shaking, and a lot of them fell down with crackling sounds.
"It's shelling, we were shelled! Sir, we must hide in the underground bunker." After all, Gesar was a mercenary with combat experience. He pulled Lula out of the ground in the dark and hurriedly pulled him into the underground bunker in the military camp.
In just two or three minutes, more than a dozen shells continued to fall towards the military police camp. These were powerful shells with a caliber of 120 mm, and each of them could explode a killing distance of more than ten meters.
At this moment, on the roof of the Governor's Mansion, Zhou Qingfeng was holding a telescope to personally launch a shelling mission. His order was transmitted from an encrypted radio station, making the artillery fire of the contingents entering the city more and more accurate.
Beside Zhou Qingfeng, there are the old butler Martin and the errand running younger brother Rubin. Compared to the calm and calm commander of the Legion, these two people are much happier.
Looking at the fire and rumbling explosions two or three kilometers away, the old and the young were happy to clap and shake their feet, laughing and laughing, almost falling from the roof.
"That's great, it's great. The people in the military police are being bombed, so they should blow up those bastards."
"It would be better to blow Lula that executioner to charcoal. If you don't blow it to death, it would scare him to death, so that he can also taste the feeling of being bullied."
The rumbling explosion was so loud that it was spread far in the night, and everyone in the city was awakened by the sound of cannons. After Lula issued the ban, the bureaucrats in the city were watching how the "Governor General" would respond? Most of the ideas they could think of were "appealing to their superiors", "continue to win over in the officialdom", "small fights outside", etc.
No one expected that the reaction of "Governor Alfonso" was so explosive, it was really "explosive"! An army actually rushed into the city and openly shot Lula's nest. Many people climbed up the roofs of each house and looked at the attacked place with shocked eyes.
"It is the military camp of the military police and the base of the Black Claws."
"Oh my God, it turns out that Governor Alfonso is so powerful! He can actually mobilize a unit and turn against each other openly."
"How do you know that this is the Governor's man who is taking action?"
"Is it necessary to find evidence? During the day, Lula just issued a ban and was attacked at night. Don't tell me it's just a coincidence."
Just as a bunch of fence-headed grass was changing their minds, the shelling did not last long and stopped in two or three minutes. But the impact of the attack was extremely wide, and no matter how much they said, it was not as good as the rumbling of cannons.
