Warlords: Rising from the Northwest Border and Sweeping Across the Powers

Chapter 487: The Terrifying V2 Rockets at the Missile Launch Base

After the meeting, Hu Xiu walked out of the headquarters dejectedly, like a deflated ball. He was filled with disappointment and reluctance. He had thought he could make a big splash in this battle, but he didn't expect Chen Tong to have other plans.

At this time, Yu Hang rushed up from behind. He gently patted Hu Xiu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Hey, you must remember that you must pay for both the wine and the banquet that you promised me."

Hu Xiu turned around and looked at Yu Hang, frowning and saying with some dissatisfaction: "Get lost, didn't you hear what the commander said? It's not our 29th Army's turn to fight this battle."

Yu Hang didn't care. He shrugged and said with a smile, "I don't care. Anyway, I have already followed the agreement and will not fight with you. I even helped you fight for this battle in front of the commander. You agreed to my conditions, don't try to deny it, otherwise, I will cut you down no matter what I say!"

When Hu Xiu heard this, he immediately flew into a rage. He rolled up his sleeves and shouted, "Come on, let's have a fight. I don't believe that a weakling like you can be my opponent."

The two men stood there, confronting each other, neither willing to give in. The surrounding officers were also accustomed to the fight between the two and did not come forward to stop them.

At this time, Chen Tong came over with a smile. He saw the tense atmosphere between Hu Xiu and Yu Hang, but he was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "Hey, what are you two doing? In public, are you two lieutenant generals going to stage a naked fight?"

When Hu Xiu and Yu Hang saw Chen Tong coming, they quickly calmed down and stood up straight. Hu Xiu touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Commander, we are just joking."

Yu Hang also quickly explained: "Yes, Commander, we were just joking."

Chen Tong said in a slightly teasing tone, "Old Hu, I heard the conditions you promised General Yu. As a man, you must keep your word. When the time comes, remember to ask me to share your three jars of girl's red wine."

Yu Hang looked at Hu Xiu, who looked like a defeated rooster, with pride and said, "Big Head Hu, did you hear that? The commander has spoken. You can't escape from the wine and the banquet."

Hu Xiu forced out a smile that was uglier than crying and said, "Since the commander has spoken, I, Old Hu, will take out those three jars of wine and let's have some fun together."

Seeing Hu Xiu's weird expression, Chen Tong and Yu Hang looked at each other and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"You two must be dissatisfied with my arrangement. If I don't explain it to you today, you might keep it to yourself. Come with me. I will show you what I have prepared to deal with the so-called Devil Division."

Yu Hang and Hu Xiu looked at each other, with a hint of surprise and expectation in their eyes. Although they were full of curiosity, Chen Tong did not give a direct answer, but deliberately kept it a secret, which made them want to know what would happen next.

The three of them got on Chen Tong's command vehicle, and the atmosphere inside the vehicle seemed somewhat mysterious and tense. Hu Xiu couldn't help but break the silence and asked Chen Tong, "Commander, I think we are heading towards Cuizhu County. What exactly are you up to? Can you tell me, Old Hu? I'm itching to do something."

After hearing this, Chen Tong's mouth curled up into a mysterious smile. He did not directly answer Hu Xiu's question, but smiled without saying anything. This made Hu Xiu even more anxious, but he also understood that Chen Tong must have his own intentions in doing so.

Along the way, the command vehicle passed through the bumpy mountain road, the scenery outside the window kept changing, and finally arrived at the V2 rocket base located outside Cuizhu County. It was a wide flat land surrounded by dense bamboo forests, which looked both mysterious and spectacular.

The commander of the 716th Division, Wang Jinlin, appeared in front of the gate of the V2 rocket base. He had been notified in advance and was waiting here specifically for the arrival of Chen Tong and others.

"Commander Chen!" Wang Jinlin, wearing a gray military uniform, walked forward and saluted Chen Tong in a standard military salute. He then greeted Hu Xiu and Yu Hang and said, "Hello, Commander Hu, Commander Yu."

"Please follow me!" The three followed Wang Jinlin into the rocket base. They saw a large number of buildings inside the rocket base. The soldiers of the missile unit were busy preparing for various tasks before the rocket launch.

Then, Wang Jinlin led Chen Tong, Hu Xiu and Yu Hang into the ammunition warehouse. The interior of the warehouse was spacious and tall, with cold steel frames crisscrossing and supporting the entire space. In this wide space, eight huge V2 rockets stood quietly, like sleeping giants, waiting for the moment to be awakened.

Each of these V2 rockets is about 14 meters long, like a huge iron pillar, reaching into the sky. They are nearly two meters in diameter, thick and strong, and coated with heat-resistant and anti-corrosion coatings, showing a deep metallic luster. At the tail of the rocket is a dense nozzle.

The warhead of the rocket is even more delicate, with various instruments and lines on it, like a complex work of art. The outer shell of the warhead has been specially reinforced and protected to withstand the huge pressure and high temperature generated during high-speed flight.

Hu Xiu and Yu Hang stood in front of these huge objects, their eyes full of shock and curiosity. They had never seen such a huge rocket before, and it was as if they were in a scene from a science fiction movie. They couldn't help but reach out and touch the surface of the rocket, feeling the cold metal texture.

Wang Jinlin smiled and introduced: "These are the V2 rockets we are about to put into use. Although they are huge in size, they have extremely high precision and reliability. These rockets use single-stage liquid propulsion technology, with a maximum range of 320 kilometers and an altitude of an astonishing 96 kilometers. In addition, the V2 rockets are equipped with advanced program and gyro dual control systems to ensure the stability and accuracy of the rockets during flight."

Wang Jinlin continued to introduce in detail the detailed parameters and power of the V2 missile. His voice echoed in the air, stirring up endless waves in the hearts of the three people.

"The V2 missile has a range of 320 kilometers, which means our attack range will be greatly expanded, giving the enemy a greater deterrent. Its maximum speed is 5300 kilometers per hour, which is enough to cause heavy damage to the enemy without them noticing."

Wang Jinlin walked over to a V2 missile, and gently slid his fingers across its cold metal surface. He continued, "In addition to using gyroscope inertial guidance, the V2 missile also incorporates a revolutionary method of jet trajectory correction. This innovative technology greatly improves the accuracy of the missile, allowing us to strike the enemy more accurately."

He turned around, his eyes swept over the three people, his voice revealing an extremely infectious excitement: "And the high explosives weighing about one ton carried in the rocket will be our deadly weapon. Once the missile hits the target accurately, any enemy and building within a radius of 500 meters will be completely destroyed, and its impact will absolutely be devastating."

Listening to Wang Jinlin's introduction, the three were deeply shocked. They imagined the horrific scene, where V2 missiles streaked across the sky like meteors, accurately hitting the enemy's area, instantly bursting out with destructive force, and completely destroying the enemy.
