Artillery Fire on All Sides, the Miserable Choi Tae-won

The group of Challengers on armored motorcycles scattered, hoping to use their mobility to shake off the five Armata main battle tanks.

But escaping for your life is never that simple.

Running away headlong is tantamount to handing their backs to the enemy, and the Armata T-14's artillery fire will not let them off easily.

In an instant, the five tanks locked onto the location of the Choi family Challengers.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Flames spewed from the cannons, and shells rained down on the crowd.

The Russian Bear's highest-level smoothbore cannons were now invincible weapons of death, each explosion claiming the lives of a large number of people.

Ignoring the lives of his men, Choi Tae-won gripped the handlebars tightly, twisted the throttle hard, and the speeding motorcycle shot towards Uvs Lake like an arrow!

But just then, the scene that plunged him into despair unfolded.

Everywhere his gaze fell, in every direction, the slow-moving figures of tanks appeared without exception.

These Iron Behemoths seemed to have descended from the sky, completely blocking all paths.

The surrounding air was filled with the sound of tank tracks crushing the grass, a sound like the prelude to death that nearly killed half of Choi Tae-won's heart.

"How..."

"How can there be so many!"

"When did these tanks appear?!"

He was so focused on those five Armata that he completely failed to notice that there were actually many more tanks approaching him.

At this moment, hundreds of tanks were advancing in perfect unison from every direction. They were arranged in dense formations, like a sea of steel, spreading out in a dark, overwhelming mass.

Completely block off all escape routes.

Moreover, they were all Armata T-14 tanks, numbering at least several thousand.

Each one was heavily armored, each one resembling a colossal beast with its jaws wide open.

The Challengers have over 10,000 Kim 7V Tanks, which is more than the Armata in front of us.

But it completely lacks the imposing presence of Russian Bear tank.

The feeling was like Mount Tai pressing down on you; with every step forward, it felt like the land was being crushed!

Like a raging tide, it swept away everything in its path.

Rugged, mobile, intelligent, and powerful—all these characteristics are embodied in these tanks.

A word kept popping into Choi Tae-won's mind:

Steel Torrent!

Compared to this, Kim Geun-seok's Kim 7V Tank is utterly insignificant, like a toy car.

Damn it!

At this point, Choi Tae-won's mind actually became much clearer.

At that moment, he had only one thought in his mind: if the 50,000- Goryeo Russian Bear army were to really fight against the Russian tanks, they would surely suffer a terrible fate.

Even landmines and anti-tank guns couldn't harm them in the slightest.

The machine gun fire from the trenches would be like scratching an itch, completely ineffective.

If war really breaks out, we'll just be used as live targets.

If we want to win, we must change our tactics; at the very least, trench warfare is absolutely not going to work.

Choi Tae-won picked up his cell phone, ready to tell Kim Geun-seok everything that was happening.

The phone call was connected very quickly.

"Young Master Kim, this is Choi Tae-won. We've been attacked by Russian Bear tanks..."

"We... we..."

Before Choi Tae-won could finish speaking, thousands of Armata T-14 tanks had already begun their attack.

Thousands of artillery pieces opened fire simultaneously, and the overwhelming firepower completely covered all the armored motorized units.

Choi Tae-won was instantly tumbled around in the explosion, his body blown to pieces.

Amidst the intense pain, a large "death" character appeared before his eyes.

A notification sounded in the Firmament immediately.

[Firmament Notification: You have been killed by the "Armata" T-14 tank from the Bear Country. The Winter Is Coming Instance mission has failed. This was your first time entering the Instance, so the Winter's Wrath effect is not available. You will be teleported out of the Instance after deducting 800 points...]

In the military camp at Uvs Lake.

Kim Geun-seok had just received a communication notification from Choi Tae-won on the channel.

But before Choi Tae-won could say two words, a series of cracking sounds rang out.

"Mr. Cui! What's the situation up ahead?"

How many enemy troops are there?! How many tanks do they have?

"Boom!"

Then came a tremendous roar, so loud that the entire Uvs Lake trembled slightly.

Kim Geun-seok quickly looked in the direction from which the sound came and found that about ten kilometers away, flames were already shooting into the sky.

"Hiss..."

"Sizzle..."

All that remained in the communication channel was the piercing electrical current echoing, constantly stimulating his eardrums.

Kim Geun-seok exclaimed that things were in trouble.

The explosion just now must have meant that fighting had broken out ahead, and the fact that Choi Tae-won's phone call suddenly went dead most likely means that he has already died on the battlefield.

As the Instance commander, Kim Geun-seok quickly went to the Instance Backend to check and found that there were only 40,000 people left in the Instance!

This means that Choi Tae-won and his armored motorcycle unit have been completely wiped out, with not a single one remaining.

Kim Geun-seok stumbled, knocking over the hot tea on the table, which splashed all over him and scalded him, making him shiver.

How could Choi Tae-won and his motorcycle army have been wiped out so quickly?!

That's outrageous! That's the most agile Motorcycle Corps ever!

In Kim Geun-seok's understanding, such a highly mobile unit, coupled with the pre-laid minefields, should not be so easily annihilated, even if it could not destroy the enemy's forces.

Moreover, the Choi family not only had armored motorcycles, but also a lot of anti-tank guns! Those were powerful weapons against tanks.

How could they lose? Kim Geun-seok simply couldn't understand it.

"Young Master Kim, what happened? What's going on?"

"Why has Mr. Cui suddenly stopped talking? Wasn't that explosion Mr. Cui's doing?"

Lee Jae-yong and Park Jeong-yong were still pressing for answers on the channel.

They were still naively convinced that the explosion was the result of Choi Tae-won's ambush with landmines.

"President Cui... has already sacrificed himself."

"He and his troops have been completely wiped out."

That's all Kim Geun-seok could say.

"What! Sacrificed?"

"How did he fight like that? Ten thousand people were wiped out in such a short time?"

Lee Jae-yong and Park Jeong-yong were completely stunned and panicked for a moment.

"Gentlemen! We don't have time to discuss this now. We can leave the battle recap for after we leave the Instance. Right now, the Russian Bear army is closing in on us!"

We must be prepared for defense.

"So what if General Cui is dead? His motorcycle unit was originally for reconnaissance; trench warfare is the key to our victory!"

"President Park, immediately have everyone in the trenches on standby!"

"General Li, get the Howitzer Vehicle units in position, a major battle is about to begin!"

After saying that, Kim Geun-seok ran out of the tent and jumped into his command vehicle without stopping.
