The First Order

Ren Xiaosu stared at hundreds of grenades in front of him. For a moment, he didn’t know what to say. Xu Haichen, the second company commander, looked at Zhang Xiaoman and said, "You remember me, I gave you all the grenades. To reduce the casualties of our 2nd and 3rd companies, don’t take the Grenade alone, or even if your sharp knives continue to do great work, I will go to the commander to tell you."

In the end, Zhang Xiaoman impressed the second company commander Xu Haichen with the reason of reducing casualties. When he raided Shichuan Town last night, more than 10 people were laid off from the company. They were all good brothers who trained together and lived together day after day. No human life is important, this is the consensus of the 178 stronghold officers.

Fight hard battles when you should, but if there is a better choice, they will definitely give priority to preserving the vitality of their troops.

"Relax," Zhang Xiaoman said with a smile: "We are all siblings, how can we do that kind of thing, come here, Ren Xiaosu quickly put away these grenades, we will continue to move forward as soon as it gets dark ."

Ren Xiaosu silently watched Zhang Xiaoman negotiate with Erlian and Sanlian. A group of soldiers were smoking and chatting next to each other. Some people took off their shoes. There was a strange smell of foot odor and smoke in the whole building, but This cigarette is different from the cigarettes smoked by private forces. Soldiers put their guns in their arms even when chatting.

Old Xu told him before that the 178 strongholds were different. At that time, Ren Xiaosu thought that they were all barriers. How much can barriers differ from barriers to barriers?

But now he realized that it was really different.

Ren Xiaosu asked Zhang Xiaoman while holding the grenade: "I think the next step is to be more careful. The terrain of Shichuan Town is complicated. Zongshi has built some new buildings. If I can't keep it, I will leave behind. I always feel that this time It's too simple to play Shichuan Town."

For Ren Xiaosu, what is too simple can always make him a little uneasy.

Zhang Xiaoman was a little crying and laughing at the moment: "This is simple? If it were not for your ability to accurately project bombs, how many people would have to die in Shichuan Town? Do you not know that Zhou Yingchang originally planned to put the entire striker The battalion is consumed by this."

Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment: "So serious? Do you need to consume the entire forward camp to fight such a street battle?"

"Yeah," Zhang Xiaoman sighed: "Only by destroying this Shichuan town and clearing the long-range artillery that may be hidden here, the rear troops can rest assured to enter the forward base for repairs and then proceed to the next combat plan."

Jiao Xiaochen added beside him: "Now is the war of modern thermal weapons. The role of our forward battalion is to remove obstacles in the early stage. In the later stage, it can only be used as a scout and infiltrate the investigation. We are basically out of our stage."

"Then are we being sent as cannon fodder now?" Ren Xiaosu frowned, how it sounded no different from cannon fodder.

As a result, Zhang Xiaoman heard this and immediately denied it. He seriously said: "We are not cannon fodder. Fortress 178 never needs a role like cannon fodder to win the war. It is just that the division of labor in the combat sequence is different. Our sacrifice today is to It will allow the rear troops to achieve a full victory. This is why all candidates for the 178 stronghold commander must come from the sharp knife company. Only those who have fought, are eligible to let others work for him."

Ren Xiaosu said nothing, and Jiao Xiaochen happily patted him on the shoulder: "Commander Zhang came out from the sharp knife. If we are really cannon fodder, then the commander can be used as cannon fodder. Why can't we be unfair?"

Ren Xiaosu suddenly understood at this moment that perhaps because all the commanders were willing to take the lead, the 178 fortress had the cohesion of today.

So when I said that I wanted to come to the most dangerous place, Zhang Jinglin arranged himself to the Jiandao Company. What exactly did it mean?

"Where are we going to fight this war?" Ren Xiaosu asked.

"Of course, the Zong clan was completely destroyed. He hit the northeast all the way to Pingluo Mountain," said Zhang Xiaoman. "If a hyena like Zong clan does not endure the future, there will be no tranquility in the northwest."

...

That night, just after the sun went down, Jian Dao took the lead to attack again in the hinterland of Shichuan Town.

During the daytime, the enemies in Shichuan Town seem to be ordered to recapture the lost ground, but the street fighting has always suffered from the offensive side, and the route the enemy chose to break through is exactly where the second and third companies are stationed.

The two company commanders themselves were in a anger. The more they wanted to be Zhang Xiao, the more uncomfortable they felt. As a result, the enemy came to the door now.

Before the breakthrough, there were heavy machine guns and ammunition in the machine gun positions that were destroyed. Zhang Xiaoman did not take them because they had enough weight to carry them and could not take them anymore.

And all the dropped weapons and ammunition were in the hands of Erlian and Sanlian. This time, the machine gun bullets could not help but splash like rain, and the walls collapsed on several sides.

Xu Haichen has been roaring behind the machine gun position, hitting him?

The defenders on Shichuan Town rushed for several waves, unable to break through the defense lines of the second and third companies, and had to retreat.

After the raid battle ended the next day, the Jiandao Company had led the follow-up troops to Shichuan Town for 5 kilometers, and looked at only a small part of the Zong's defenders who were still stubborn in the northern buildings.

The Shichuan Town Guards fought in this battle were very stubborn. They thought they had enough firepower. On the entire street battle field, they had dozens of firepower. There were countless soldiers hiding cold guns in the building.

But after two days of fighting, they suddenly felt that their defensive positions on the side were like mud, and they could not effectively block the 178 fortress soldiers.

Sometimes even without people seeing, the firepower was destroyed by the grenade!

It's too suffocating!

According to the original plan, they would consume the entire forward battalion of the 178 stronghold in Shichuan Township, but the forward battalion came with only three companies, and they passed through Shichuan Town.

In fact, if it weren't for street fighting, the grenade's killing effect on the ground is not necessarily really good.

And now, the black holes in the houses, which were originally the defense barriers of the defenders, have now become Ren Xiaosu's targets.

The following night, when Zhang Xiaoman reported the battle to Zhou Yinglong, the commander, Zhou Yinglong felt a bit numb. Before that, he told Zhang Jinglin, please ask the commander to give him more time, so that he could beat Shichuan Town safely and steadily. Down.

The rear armored brigade therefore delayed the advancement plan. As a result, as soon as time was available, Zhang Xiaoman on the front line told him that tomorrow, Shichuan Town might be knocked down...
