Chapter 390, I’ve Brought Down Guanshan
After Ren Xiaosu pushed his motorcycle away, Zhang Xiaoman led the entire sharp knife company to frantically dig trenches.
After all, Ren Xiaosu didn’t have much military knowledge, and the gullies on the ground did save many steps in digging the trench, so if he wanted to make this trench really useful, he had to process it again.
On the one hand is to pick the most suitable location, on the other hand is to build fire point.
It would take Ren Xiaosu an hour to go up the mountain, and it would probably be about an hour for Dingyuan Mountain to support them, so there was not much time left for Zhang Xiaoman and the others.
Jiao Xiao Chen took the lead while building the trenches and muttered, “I thought the commander had sent a weak boy, but it turns out that he sent an overwhelmingly fierce man.”
“Have you guys ever felt as if he has a grudge against these bandits,” someone queried, “It always feels as if he wants to fight this group of bandits and Zongs and get each other all killed.”
“I can feel it,” Zhang Xiaoman sighed, “This kid has a ruthlessness in his bones, he kills people without saying a word or blinking, just now, before we could react, he killed that bandit.”
“Just now when he pushed the motorcycle up the hill, I felt a killing gas from behind him ……”
“You’ve been listening to too many commentary books, and you can still fucking feel a murderous aura, get lost!”
At this time, Zhang Xiaoman sat in the trench pit, he counted the time: “Is the mortar ready?”
“Company Commander, the range of our mortars is only three kilometers, so we definitely can’t hit them,” Jiao Xiao Chen said as he wiped off his sweat, “Why don’t we get a little closer? This will also cover him for a bit, right now this shell is estimated to be some distance away from the bandit’s nest in Na Guan Mountain.”
“No,” Zhang Xiaoman shook his head, “Our most important thing now is to annihilate the bandits coming from Dingyuan Mountain, it’s not that I don’t want to cover him, but the mission has to be accomplished, and we can only talk about other things if we accomplish the mission first.”
“In case he ……”
“There is no such thing as an eventuality,” Zhang Xiaoman denied, “It’s an honor for a soldier to die on the battlefield, since he decided to go, he must have the ability to save his life, don’t underestimate a Transcendent, have you forgotten how raw Old Xu is with that ability, maybe he’s more raw than Old Xu? ”
Transcendentals, nowadays are a kind of variable on the battlefield, like a sharp knife, as long as you stab the right position, you can make the enemy die immediately.
The time had come, Zhang Xiaoman ordered Jiao Xiao Chen to immediately fire mortars to create a sound, after the sound of the cannons, fierce gunfire suddenly came from halfway up the mountainside.
Someone said, “It looks like the Guanshan bandit den is fighting, are we really not going to help him?”
“Why do I still seem to hear the whine of a train, is it just me?”
“He can’t handle it alone, even the most powerful Transcendent is afraid of random gunfire, why don’t we go to Guanshan first?”
Zhang Xiaoman said in a cold voice, “All of you, be on guard, your current enemies are the bandits of Dingyuan Mountain, not this side of Guanshan!”
However, right at this moment, the gunfire on the mountainside gradually stopped, Zhang Xiaoman frowned, “How did the gunfire stop so quickly, did he withdraw or was he sacrificed?”
“The probability is that he was sacrificed.”
According to last year’s intelligence, there were at least seven hundred bandits gathered on this Guan Mountain, even if Ren Xiaosu was more powerful, it would be impossible for him to end this nest of bandits by himself.
Moreover, if Ren Xiaosu had fled down the mountain, there should have been the sound of gunshots in pursuit, but now nothing could be heard, indicating that the battle on the mountain had ended completely.
So the most reasonable explanation was that Ren Xiaosu had overestimated his own strength, saying that he wanted to hold back the bandits on Guanshan Mountain, but ended up being taken down by the bandits on the mountain.
“But if we end the battle so quickly, Ding Yuan Mountain won’t support this side, and our plan will be null and void,” Jiao Xiao Chen sighed, “What are we going to do now, pull back for a bit first.”
“Wait a little longer,” Zhang Xiaoman said, “In case the bandits from Dingyuan Mountain come, we can fight as many as we can, if we want to withdraw at this time, the other side has motorcycles and can travel freely in this river valley area, we are retreating on foot, and we will soon be caught up by the enemy. Instead of that, it’s better to hold this position and fight a counterattack.”
The soldiers of the Sharp Knife Company leaned against the side of the trench and hugged their guns, “The Commander is also really unlucky, a total of two candidates were chosen, and both of them ended up dead.”
“There’s nothing to be sorry about,” Zhang Xiaoman calmly said, “On the battlefield, you simply don’t know which second you’ll die.”
However, the Sharp Knives Company waited in the trenches under the mountain for nearly an hour, and neither saw any bandit reinforcements from Dingyuan Mountain, nor did they see any bandits rushing down from Guanshan Mountain to chase them.
“It’s a bit strange,” Zhang Xiaoman said, “We exposed our position when we fired the mortar just now, how can the bandits above Guanshan Mountain hold back and not come down to fight us? It’s not a problem if the bandits from Dingyuan Mountain don’t come, why don’t the ones from Guanshan Mountain come down too?”
As a result, just at this moment, someone poked his head out and suddenly saw that someone on the mountain road was slowly walking this way, and in the world of yellow soil, that figure was covered in blood, which looked extraordinarily eye-catching.
“Isn’t that Ren Xiaosu? He’s still alive?!” Jiao Xiao Chen exclaimed in shock.
They had guessed at a number of possibilities, but they only didn’t think that Ren Xiaosu would be able to walk down the mountain alive!
As soon as Zhang Xiaoman, who was calm just now, heard Ren Xiaosu’s name, he immediately rolled out of the trench and rushed towards Ren Xiaosu, he circled around Ren Xiaosu for a long time, “Where are you hurt? How did you escape? Medic! Medic hurry over here!”
Ren Xiaosu was silent and suddenly said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t fulfill my mission.”
Zhang Xiaoman laughed cheerfully when he looked at him as if he was fine, “It’s good to be down alive, I told you that you were too generous, can you hold back the bandits in Guanshan by going up the mountain alone? Hurry up and get into the trench with me, when the Guanshan bandits come down, we should fight a hard battle!”
Ren Xiaosu said, “No, what I mean is that the killing was too fast, they didn’t have time to call for help from Dingyuan Mountain before they were all dead.”
Everyone in the Sharp Knives Company fucking froze, is it appropriate for you to say such harsh words with such a regretful and sorrowful expression?
Zhang Xiaoman said in shock, “You’re not kidding, right?”
Ren Xiaosu said, “Last month, the Guanshan bandits almost came out in full force and were killed, nowadays there are only a hundred or so bandits on top of Guanshan, it’s not as strong as you guys think.”
“So that’s how it is!” Zhang Xiaoman froze for a moment, “But how did you know about this?”
Ren Xiaosu did not say anything, he suddenly missed Six Yuan a little.
At this time, Zhang Xiaoman and the others still felt that something was a bit off, even if there were only a hundred or so people up there on the fucking top, you’re ending this battle too quickly, right? In other words, Ren Xiaosu alone exterminated more than a hundred bandits on the mountain?
“Are you sure the bandits on the mountain are all dead?” Zhang Xiaoman confirmed, “There are no lies in the army!”
Ren Xiaosu said, “There are still several heavy machine guns and quite a bit of ammunition on the mountain, I think we should go up and take them down, after all, we don’t really have enough ammunition either.”
“This is not what I asked ……” Zhang Xiaoman was a bit speechless.
An hour later, Zhang Xiaoman looked at the corpses all over the ground in the Guanshan bandit nest and suddenly said to the correspondent, “Hurry up and connect me to Battalion Commander Zhou’s side, I want to report on this situation.”
The correspondent carried a portable radio over, Zhang Xiaoman took the microphone, only to hear Zhou Yinglong’s loud voice yell: “What are you looking for me for? You don’t think you can’t defeat Dingyuan Mountain, so you want to give up, right? Let me tell you, you have made a military order, you have to fight even if you can’t defeat it!”
Zhang Xiaoman said breathlessly, “Battalion Commander, we have brought down Guanshan, tomorrow we will go to fight Dingyuan Mountain ……”
