Chapter 397, The Might of the Sharp Knife Company

After a big battle, there must be a harvest, tonight it was only a few short rounds of shelling, Zhang Xiaoman and the others had cleaned out the mortar shells, but it didn’t matter, the bandits of Dingyuan Mountain were even richer than imagined.

They weren’t worth anything to a consortium like Zong’s.

The bullets were also almost finished, the Northwest now commonly used 7.62mm caliber bullets, and there were just as many of them in the bandits’ dens.

How many bullets would be consumed in a battle? This number is difficult to estimate, in a battle, if you count the training bullets, it is likely that several thousand or even tens of thousands of bullets to kill a person.

This was calculated purely from statistics, and most of the time, the percentage of wasted bullets used for fire suppression was probably very high.

Zhang Xiaoman and the others carried out all the bullets from the Dingyuan Mountain bandit nest, and one by one, they went to pick up the magazines that they had thrown away during the battle, and pressed the bullets back into the magazines.

Zhang Xiaoman lamented, “It’s great to fight a hill independently, and all the loot belongs to us, wait, how come there are no grenades here?”

Hearing the company commander say this, we realized, “It seems to be, some of the bandits found some, the whole box of grenades have not really seen.”

“The bandits of Dingyuan Mountain aren’t poor either, why can’t we even see a whole box of grenades!”

Next to Ren Xiaosu heard this weakly did not say anything, the whole box of grenades is there, and there are as many as ten boxes, a box of twenty, all in his storage space.

Right at this moment, the palace suddenly said, “Mission complete, reward 5 attribute points, can be freely distributed.”

Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment, it was true that difficult quests that were calculated by percentage progress would also have higher rewards!

Only his previous mission of helping his comrades to reduce their burden had only been completed to 90 ah, how did it jump to 100 all of a sudden?

Wait, was it because of the ten boxes of grenades? He had put ten boxes of grenades into the storage space, so it was sort of a disguised way of helping his teammates reduce their burdens?

Rao Ren Xiaosu, who liked to drill holes in the palace, was stunned …… This was also possible?

Previously, he also stuffed six boxes, but because there was no reminder of completing the task, so he didn’t notice, if he noticed at that time, it is estimated that the task was directly completed at that time.

Ren Xiaosu was happy to help his comrade complete this kind of load reduction!

He allocated his attribute points to three points for strength and two points for agility, and with a balanced distribution, his strength had now reached 13.5, while his agility was 12.1.

From the data alone, Ren Xiaosu’s physical quality today was already more than four times that of a normal adult male.

However, what Ren Xiaosu was more looking forward to was what new abilities would appear when his attributes broke through the double 20.

For example, Destroy City, a skill that lasted for thirty seconds, was created when the Attributes double broke through 10.

Perhaps every time a hurdle was passed, a qualitative change would arise.

……

When they descended the mountain, everyone in the sharp knife company was fully loaded, and if they weren’t unable to pull the two artillery guns, I’m afraid that Zhang Xiaoman would have to pull them all to the forward base.

Before leaving, Zhang Xiaoman used TNT to blow off the front end of the barrels of the two artillery pieces, this was to prevent any Zong’s people from activating them again.

Normally, when encountering such offensive facilities with large movement costs on the battlefield, one would choose to directly destroy them instead of going through the trouble of taking them away.

On the way down the mountain, suddenly a comrade said thank you as he passed by Ren Xiaosu, and then continued on his way as if nothing had happened.

Immediately after that, more and more comrades said thank you as they passed by Ren Xiaosu.

This was to thank Ren Xiaosu for helping them carry most of the pressure, if not for Ren Xiaosu being a lone wolf, I’m afraid that half of them would have died in this battle.

Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment, this time he hadn’t even asked everyone to say thank you, but the thanks from each of his comrades was sincere.

With just this, Ren Xiaosu had harvested over a hundred thanks, and the thank you coins had instantly turned into over four hundred.

However, after a battle, what Ren Xiaosu had harvested was by no means just ten boxes of grenades, five attribute points, and more than a hundred thanks, but also the trust of his comrades.

Zhang Xiaoman had once said that on the battlefield, the only things you could trust were the guns and bullets in your hands, as well as the comrade in the trench who could cover for you.

Ren Xiaosu looked at his comrades who were descending the mountain in front of him in silence.

Then specifically slowed down his pace and waited a moment for those comrades behind him who had yet to say thank you.

Moving all the way to the northwest, Zhou Yinglong ordered the Sharp Knife Company to first go to the forward base to meet up with the forward battalion, wait for the rear troops to finish assembling at the forward base, and then decide where to go based on Commander Zhang’s next battle plan.

The barriers governed by Zong’s barriers were all on the northeastern side of the Forward Base, and more than two hundred kilometers directly north of the Forward Base was the vast Gobi and desert.

When Pointed Sword Company trekked more than eighty kilometers to enter the forward base, all the soldiers of Pointed Sword Company were as tired as a dog, and a dog was not as tired as them!

The main reason was that they were carrying too many things!

However, the moment they entered the forward base, Zhang Xiaoman and the others all held their heads high and glowing, and Fu Rao and Lin Pingan even carried the captured RPGs on their shoulders, looking as imposing as they could be.

Then they walked all the way to the command tent, accepting the salute from all the comrades of the group’s advance troops.

Ren Xiaosu curiously said: “Company commander, there is a need to be so …….”

Zhang Xiaoman was not happy: “You don’t understand, our sharp knife company won the battle, more than a hundred people to eliminate the two hills, now the whole group army probably heard about this, we have to support up, let them see our sharp knife company’s prestige!”

Ren Xiaosu was in tears, obviously he was still shouting that he was exhausted before marching into the battalion.

However, when he looked around at the other friendly soldiers, they were all looking at the Company of the Pointed Sword with admiration, and the soldiers who were pitching their tents in the barracks also stopped their work and muttered something in a low voice.

Right at this moment, Zhou Yinglong’s loud voice rang out, “Put the damn RPG aside, I thought you guys came to attack the old battalion headquarters.”

Saying that, Zhou Yinglong circled around the sharp knife company, when he saw the seven wounded on the stretcher he roared, “Where’s the hygienist, come and carry the wounded away.”

“No, no,” the wounded in the Pointed Sword Company hurriedly said, “Our wounds will be fine right away, Ren Xiaosu put medicine on us.”

“Will that damn local medicine work?” Zhou Yinglong was not happy: “Treat your wounds if you have them, cut the crap!”

Ren Xiaosu realized that although Zhou Yinglong yelled a lot, his first reaction when he saw the Pointed Sword Company was to look at the company’s casualties first, and then treat the wounded.

The wounded of the Pointed Sword Company were anxious: “Ren Xiaosu, explain to the battalion commander, we’re really fine.”

If this is carried away, the next battle will be nothing for them, the brothers are fighting on the front line, they are lying in the health center, what is this called?

Ren Xiaosu looked at Zhou Yinglong and said, “My medicine, Commander Zhang has also seen it, it is indeed a local recipe, but all external wounds can be healed in three days, there are many very magical herbs in the wild now.”
