Four o'clock in the afternoon.

The piercing alarm blared throughout the entire Coyote Camp.

The men in the camp all tensed up and gripped their rifles tightly.

These people are not soldiers; they have not undergone systematic training, and some have only just learned how to fire a gun.

But now, they all have to go to the Battlefield.

Li Yu looked at them and said, "This is our home."

"Our only home now."

"If we can't hold out, we'll all die."

"Whether you want to follow or not is your choice."

"You don't have to fight, but you have to leave."

After saying that, Li Yu walked out of the camp.

Men, you look at each other.

A bearded man tightened his grip on his rifle. "Fight them!"

"Let's fight them!"

In the end, the men followed Li Yu.

Just as Li Yu said.

Coyote Camp is their home.

Especially after Cheng Baisen's death, Li Yu treated the camp residents very kindly, and the residents were unwilling to abandon Li Yu and the camp at this time.

Besides, even if they left the camp, there was no guarantee they would survive.

Without the protection of the camp, the men might be alright, but the women, children, and the elderly probably wouldn't last even a week.

Whatever their reasons, Li Yu now has at least a hundred militiamen at his disposal.

He went up to the camp wall and looked out of the camp.

Outside the camp, on the distant horizon of the wilderness.

The sun was shining brightly at four o'clock in the afternoon, and the visibility was excellent, even without a telescope.

Li Yu could also see a troop appearing on the horizon, slowly making its way towards the camp.

Yang Tao and the others who were sent out to scout ahead of time have already reported the composition of this convoy.

The convoy consisted of eight tanks, twelve off-road vehicles, and one Wheeled Armored Command Vehicle.

The number of soldiers should exceed three hundred.

Such a combination is enough to sweep through a large number of camps in the wilderness.

Li Yu gave the signal, and several anti-aircraft machine guns were set up around the camp.

They were all controlled by powerful gunners, and now, long belts of ammunition were already loaded onto the machine guns.

Beside them, there were boxes of ammunition ready to be laid out.

In the distance, the Iron Horse mercenaries had already taken cover in their ambush positions, armed with Rocket launcher and other Battlefield weapons.

Even with some preparation, the Rocket launcher launcher still lacked sufficient ammunition.

Moreover, this time, the main force of the 'Yellow Springs' attack was clearly quite cautious.

On the horizon, as they advanced, their vehicles and troops began to disperse.

The eight tanks spread out like eight arrows, pointing in different directions from the camp.

Among them, the two tanks on the left and right flanks showed a tendency to bypass the main Battlefield and attack the camp from the flanks or even the rear.

The twelve SUV equipped with anti-aircraft machine guns were also dispersed, lagging far behind the tanks, clearly positioned as the second echelon.

These highly mobile vehicles, equipped with heavy firepower, pose a significant threat in such small-scale localized Battlefield.

They will use their mobility to target the enemy's vulnerable points, while the anti-aircraft machine guns on the vehicles will provide sufficient firepower to take out some firing positions.

Finally, a large number of soldiers dispersed, relying on armored vehicles or tanks, forming a combat unit of three to four people, and three combat units constituted a team.

In this way, the commander of 'Yellow Springs' can flexibly command according to the needs of the Battlefield.

At the same time, the dispersed soldiers prevented weapons like Rocket launcher from achieving their maximum effectiveness.

this time.

No warning was given.

There is no threat.

The 'Yellow Springs' appeared.

They then began their attack.

As the tanks advanced, they began bombarding the fortifications at the Coyote Camp.

The long cannon barrels were pointed at the camp and opened fire one after another.

Rumble!

The sound of cannons continued.

Shells rained down on the fortifications built in front of the Coyote Camp, creating one explosion after another.

Faced with the preemptive strike of tank warriors, Coyote Camp had virtually no good countermeasures and could only temporarily avoid the onslaught.

Everyone should try to stay hidden and avoid being exposed.

The militiamen hiding in the trenches hugged their helmets and pressed themselves against the side of the trench, not daring to show their heads at all.

Under such shelling, within minutes the front line of the Coyote Camp was filled with smoke and flames.

Finally, the tank drove into the minefield.

A Tank vehicle, positioned at the center of the Battlefield, drove straight in, leading the way.

A sudden explosion of flames erupted from the bottom, causing the entire chariot to shake, but it continued forward. Flames and thick smoke billowed from the bottom of the chariot.

Next, the other tanks detonated the mines one after another, causing all eight tanks to shake violently.

One of the vehicles was particularly unlucky; it had just entered the minefield when one of its tracks was blown off, forcing it to stop.

Wheeled Armored Command Vehicle, the androgynous-looking Luo Zi exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, there's even a minefield!"

"These guys are really well-prepared."

The commander in the vehicle picked up the communicator and calmly said, "Clear the minefield."

Immediately, soldiers opened fire with machine guns, occasionally detonating landmines.

Rumble! Rumble!

In the minefield, landmines kept exploding, sending dust flying everywhere.

but.

Demining is a task that cannot be completed in a short period of time.

At the same time, because of the need to clear mines.

The forces of 'Yellow Springs' were forced to remain outside the minefield.

At this moment, Li Yu issued an order.

Coyote Camp is located in a town, but the camp occupies only a small part of the town.

Therefore, the area outside the camp was an abandoned town, and most of the buildings outside the camp were removed simply to facilitate travel.

This resulted in a flat, open landscape.

but.

This only cleared the buildings on the surface; the town's underground tunnel system was preserved.

At Li Yu's command, a specialist detonated the explosives that had been planted in the underground tunnel beforehand.

When setting up the minefield, Li Yu had considered what would happen if the enemy had mine-clearing capabilities and the entire army couldn't enter the minefield.

To address this problem, he planted explosives in an underground tunnel outside the minefield.

Once the explosives detonate, they will cause most of the ground outside the minefield to collapse, thus causing some interference and impact on enemy forces on the ground.

Now, as the explosives in the underground tunnel were detonated, the ground shook violently.

Immediately, huge cracks appeared, followed by a loud rumble as a large area of the ground suddenly collapsed, causing the 'Yellow Springs' soldiers above to fall down.

They didn't even have time to react before they were crushed and flattened by the rubble.

Because the 'Yellow Springs' soldiers were positioned far apart, only a few of them sank with the ground.

This truly shocked Luo Zi, who was in the car.

"Hey, these rats are pretty tenacious," Luo Zi snorted, looking at the commander. "You can't even handle a few rats, can you?"
