Time: October 4, 2018.

Baghdad Local time: 13:56.

As the capital of Iraq, Baghdad straddles both sides of the Tigris River and is only thirty kilometers away from the Euphrates River.

According to the perception of the ordinary world, Baghdad can be regarded as one of the important towns of early human civilization.

With beautiful scenery and more unsolved historical mysteries, this city is full of ancient and mysterious veils.

Unfortunately, on March 20, 2003, the United States bypassed United Nations and unilaterally launched a military attack on Iraq on the grounds that Iraq owned Weapons of Mass Destruction.

While the people of this country have suffered from more than ten years of war, the US military has also destroyed a large number of historical relics and cultural relics, and this beautiful city has been devastated by artillery fire.

Of course, the reason why the US military invaded the war was not at all "destructive weapons", nor was it for democracy and freedom.

Moreover, Iraq War caused 100,000 deaths and displaced tens of millions of people. It was really for 'democracy and freedom'~.

The real reason is to ensure the status of the 'US dollar'.

Even Iraq's President Afoud Masum signed the UNSC and also signed Umbrella's Confidentiality Agreement, giving Iraq more financial and technical support.

But the president does not represent everything in such a war-torn country, especially the warlords who control real power and the oil tycoons who have resources.

Due to wars and national hatred among ordinary people, coupled with the deliberate misleading of warlords and tycoons, the UNSC did not have much control over the Middle East.

(Except countries such as Israel, Egypt, Saudi Arabia.)

At this time, Baghdad's city streets were filled with a large number of new tanks, armored vehicles and other heavy equipment, as well as soldiers wearing khaki combat uniforms and wearing Umbrella Mechanical Skeleton.

More than half of the firearms in the hands of soldiers are Pulse Series, as well as conventional firearms produced by Umbrella in its early stages.

Arriving at the Baghdad city center, which is also the Underground Facility entrance that Umbrella Agent people reported, the armed defense force is even more advanced.

For example, the Scorpion main battle tank, which the UNSC ordered from Umbrella and has just been put into use, has a 150mm electrothermal chemical smoothbore cannon.

There are also several MS units numbered Zaku Type 2, Gauss Autocannon equipped with small diameter, and Beam Tomahawk, etc.

As for the soldiers stationed here, their individual soldier systems are no longer just Mechanical Skeleton, but actually have AAES Series Power Armor owned by UNSC Special Operations Command.

Their coatings are also all earthy yellow decorated by Rebels, which is used to distinguish the dark green of the UNSC.

Civilians on the street wantonly burned Stars and Stripes with the American logo on the street, and some even drank with friends on the street. Even if they used Arabic, it was not difficult to guess that they were cursing the United States.

It can be seen how much the people here are against the United States, and they are also against the UNSC, with the United States as the main force.

14:00.

"Boom~--! Boom! Boom--!"

When the time came to two o'clock in the afternoon, Baghdad heard the roar of missiles before they fell, followed by a steady stream of bombings.

"Ah!!"

"Yala Yala!"

The moment the explosion sounded, the people on the street seemed to have been used to it. After a brief panic, they began to run back to their houses in an orderly manner.

After all, this place has been in war for more than ten years and has no experience. How can it deserve the title of 'refugee'?

The Rebelss stationed here were not as calm as the civilians, and they all hid under nearby bunkers.

The faces of some officers were full of confusion and fear. They obviously didn't understand why the UNSC, which had "friendly" discussions with the Rebelss yesterday, suddenly launched an attack today.

The expression of Colonel Grade Officers is more like: Isn't the UNSC afraid that we will drop 'World-Ending Weapon' and we will die together?

"Boom--! Boom! Boom!"

Just when Rebels fell into brief chaos, there was another missile-like roar, but it was not as violent an explosion as imagined.

I saw densely packed Drop Pod falling on the streets, squares, and Rebels military camps in Baghdad.

The impact generated when it fell had already caused damage to Rebels, which was unable to react.

"Click~! Click~!"

Not to mention that as the warehouse door popped open, a group of fully armed Umbrella soldier jumped out and fired at Rebels indiscriminately.

Most of the soldiers who jumped out from Drop Pod were UBCS equipped with serious AAES3, and they were also UBCS affiliated with Andre.

The fighting style of this group of UBSC is unrestrained, and more than half of the members are also "maozi".

The weapons in their hands are not the standard Pulse or Gauss models. Instead, their appearance is more similar to that of the AK series, but it is extremely easy for them to use.

The veteran general took advantage of his authority to customize weapons from the arsenal near Troy, which could better bring out the strength of Containment Unit.

Heavy Soldier equipped with CMC Power Armor also emerges from the large Drop Pod, using the anti-tank missiles carried on its shoulders to launch surprise attacks on various main battle tanks and armored vehicles of Rebels.

The originally peaceful urban area of Baghdad fell into war in just two minutes. As more and more large landing craft landed, the war began to intensify.

14:03.

Two kilometers north of Baghdad city center.

A group of Drop Pod attacked towards the crossroads, and the two old-fashioned infantry vehicles stationed here were destroyed by Drop Pod before they could fight back.

"Ta-ta!"

The Rebelss holding Pulse Rifle were not as slow to react as the infantry vehicles. Instead, they immediately launched an attack on the five Drop Pods.

"Boom-! Boom-!"

After Caseless Explosive Rounds hit the outer wall of Drop Pod, a violent explosion occurred.

However, when Drop Pod's warehouse door bounced open and the soldiers inside jumped to the ground, the situation completely turned into a one-sided situation.

Only five Spartan-II wearing PIA Power Armor were seen. Relying on the Gauss Rifle in their hands, coupled with Superman's reaction and vision, more than half of the Rebels were eliminated in an instant.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

The second phase warrior who rushed at the front suffered a fierce blow from the remaining Rebels, but was offset by a layer of emerald green light from AT Energy Shield.

In less than ten seconds, nearly a platoon of thirty Rebels were massacred by five second-phase soldiers.

These Phase II PIA shoulder pads have an image of an olive branch from the ancient Roman period and the words 'NOBLE'.

These five people were exactly Noble Team, whom William valued at the beginning, and were led by Carter, who was already a lieutenant.

After confirming that there was no more Rebels at this intersection, Carter used the damaged armored vehicle as a bunker and quietly ordered in the communication:

"Everyone, we will go to Underground Facility with other teams to execute all those generals and officials who openly rebelled.

Also, for the anomalies with unknown properties in Underground Facility, the power of AT Shield was adjusted to the highest level.

Proceed with caution and set off."

"Yes."
