Chapter 878, Familiar Feeling
In the command headquarters, P5092 silently watched the images and sounds transmitted back in real time on the screen, he asked his adjutant, “You’ve been watching the images transmitted back from the camera as well, have you found the brute?”
The adjutant shook his head, “No discovery, and I don’t know how this kid did it. When I was carpet searching in the Boulder Mountain before, I also fought with the brutes and it was very overwhelming. But now how come it feels like these barbarians suddenly got hung up and fought when they got in front of this kid.”
“Do you have a familiar feeling?” P5092 asked.
This feeling was just like when they were in the Boulder Mountain, where Fire Seed’s main force conducted carpet searches, but the barbarians were always hiding unexpectedly in all kinds of terrain, like cheetahs on the hunt.
However, after Ren Xiaosu appeared, the cheetah that was hunting suddenly became the prey, as if a real hunter had arrived.
No matter how Ren Xiaosu did it, he was always one step faster than the brute.
At this moment, deep in the forest there were a few barbarians sitting at the entrance of a tent that was made of animal skins and looked unusually rugged.
Suddenly, one of the barbarians came out from the forest and said to him, “Officer Valengin, there is an enemy situation in the direction of our right flank.”
The barbarian named Valengin glanced at him, “How many people?”
“The number has yet to be determined, the other side met up with our soldiers on the lurking line and erupted into a huge fire, but the other side has not been in head-on contact with our main force,” the barbarian who had come over to report the situation said.
Valengin looked at the fire pit built with stones in front of him, the flames inside kept swaying, he said, “The pretense of the Central Plains troops, now the main force of the Fire Seed is always at the edge of our attack range on the front, I’m afraid that the enemy that appeared on the right flank is a bait, wanting to entice us to split up our troops, and then come back to snatch the corpses of their Central Plains companions. ”
In Valengin’s opinion, the other side might not be able to stand the corpses of their compatriots being hung on stakes this time, so they came to snatch the corpses.
Several times before, Fire Seed had attacked, trying to quickly close in on those corpses.
But the barbarian wasn’t stupid, he said to his subordinate at the side, “It’s better to send an elite team to check out the situation on the right flank, if the enemy isn’t too many in number, we’ll just eat this bait, if the enemy is many in number, then we’ll send a main force over to encircle them, the wilderness, it’s our home turf!”
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu was leading the reconnaissance company to lie down in the woods and shrubs on a small hill, the terrain here was flat, even the hill was not much higher.
Apart from Ren Xiaosu, everyone else was wearing camouflage combat uniforms and had black and green greasepaint on their faces, and when they were lying motionless on the ground, it would be difficult for the enemy to discover that there was someone here from afar.
T40219 said doubtfully, “Sir, this forest has already been occupied by the barbarians, it’s not too good for us to ambush someone in their occupied area, right? Something will happen.”
Ren Xiaosu glanced at him, “This is the ambush site I carefully chose, and no one in this battle has stipulated that only the barbarians can ambush us, but we are not allowed to ambush the barbarians. What’s wrong with their occupied areas, it’s about hitting them in the occupied areas, a battle is all about surprise in order to gain the upper hand.”
T40219 hesitated for half a day, and finally couldn’t help but say, “But the direction we’re facing is also not right ah, the barbarian main force is behind us ……”
The reconnaissance company entered the battlefield from the west side of the forest, and the firefight between the main force and the barbarians took place on the east side, and that side was the defense line where the barbarians were entrenched.
So to be reasonable, even if the barbarians sent someone else, they should have come from the east, but Ren Xiaosu insisted on facing west on guard.
Ren Xiaosu didn’t bother to explain so much: “Wait and see.”
The reason why he chose the facing direction was entirely based on the terrain, just now he led the reconnaissance company in a big circle in the forest before deciding to set up an ambush here.
There was the wind direction factor, the terrain factor, and more importantly, it was out of the hunter’s judgment.
Felines liked to sneak up from behind, and likewise, so did hunters.
However, Ren Xiaosu felt that it was too troublesome to explain this to T40219, so he might as well use the results to speak.
And in case he explained a whole lot of seemingly scientific reasoning, and the brute didn t come as a result, wouldn t that be …… embarrassing?
Therefore, it is still necessary to maintain a certain sense of mystery.
T40219 couldn t say anything for half a day, but it turned out that 20 minutes later, he really saw a silhouette swaying in the woods to the west, and it was slowly approaching.
Everyone, including all the combat staff and officers in the command headquarters were surprised, they didn’t expect enemies to really appear from behind here, and they didn’t know where exactly these enemies had come around from.
It was just that the thing that made them even more amazed was how that teenager’s judgment could be so accurate.
P5092 thought to himself, if he didn’t know that Ren Xiaosu’s ability was to materialize the Black Pill, he would almost have thought that the teenager’s ability was unforeseen!
Ren Xiaosu lowered his voice and conveyed his orders over the communication channel, “Still the exact same fire positions as just now, look at the direction of my finger, three people will hit the 1 o’clock direction, three people will hit the 3 o’clock direction, and after that follow me to reap the rewards, there aren’t many of them!”
After saying that, he began to wait patiently, those barbarians were traveling very fast, it seemed like they didn’t think that someone would ambush them in reverse!
Ren Xiaosu counted down in his heart, 10, 9, 8 ……
The moment the count reached 1: “Fire.”
The grenade launcher emitted a muffled sound, Ren Xiaosu almost leapt out together with the grenade, the barbarians raised their giant axes when they saw someone suddenly come out, but before they could throw the axes in their hands at Ren Xiaosu, the grenade had already exploded around them.
The reconnaissance company followed Ren Xiaosu and started to harvest the battlefield, some barbarians shouted in pain through the smoke, their words were long, as if they were calling for reinforcements.
T40219’s reaction was quick, he immediately sent two combat squads to complete the line of fire on both flanks to prevent the sudden appearance of barbarian reinforcements.
However, he waited for a long time, but did not see the arrival of the barbarian reinforcements.
In the forest in the distance, Lao Xu was standing next to a field of corpses, the black knife in his hand still dripping blood.
Waiting for the battle to end, or to be precise, waiting for Ren Xiaosu to finish harvesting, a soldier of the scout company whispered, “No wonder the chief sent him to lead the battle, before we thought that the chief ……”
T40219 was anxious, this communication channel is transmitted back to the command headquarters in real time, isn’t this clearly questioning the officer’s decision, he hurriedly said, “All combat units maintain communication silence!”
But it was still too late, the soldier’s words were transmitted back to the command.
However, P5092 didn’t get angry, instead, he showed a hint of a smile on his face, if an expert like Ren Xiaosu was successfully turned by himself, it would give himself wings in the war against the barbarians ah!
