Chapter 99, Tactical Interlude

In battle, the consequences of having your butt picked out are disastrous.

Behind those mobs, they were attacked from two directions by two infantry platoons led by Cody, and there was basically no effective resistance.

If the people from the 3rd Battalion on the front weren't quite sure what was happening behind them, and their top priority was to prepare for the grain trucks, so they didn't have time to cooperate and launched an attack from the front at the same time, those thugs would have collapsed even faster.

Some.

But even if it doesn't, it's not a big problem.

Objectively speaking, Cody feels that the military skill level of the team he is leading now is still far behind that of his old army. But it is better than that mob and has stronger weapons and equipment.

At least it's not a steel barrel rifle anymore.

At the same time, after realizing that among the enemies, the cultists who could release storm bombs were the biggest threat, he focused on those two enemies.

He found some of his soldiers who had the most advanced ideas and were able to fight tough battles, and then he personally led them to specifically select those cultists to fight.

Tough battles must be fought using this method.

And when he led his men to kill the two warlocks, there was no suspense in the battle.

The remaining thugs were either killed or escaped.

Cody did not lead anyone to pursue him, but led his team to approach the grain transport team.

The soldiers responsible for the escort were still very cautious and did not let them get close. It wasn't until Cody showed up and the soldiers on the opposite side found someone familiar that they lowered their guard.

After speaking with the secret message, Cody left a platoon behind, together with the seventeen people who were still alive in the original escort team, took the wounded, and headed for the No. 2 distribution center they were responsible for.

By ensuring that this food can be delivered first, we can ensure the normal operation of the dozen or so food distribution points corresponding to the No. 2 distribution center.

Then, there are two platoons over there, as well as the team responsible for escorting, to ensure safety as much as possible.

As for Cody himself...

He pulled up the brim of his hat and listened to the fierce gunshots coming from the distance.

His fight is not over yet.

"Let's keep going! There are more comrades who need our support!"

"Yes!" The soldiers had just won a victory and their morale was high.

…

Coady quickly led the troops to a new battlefield.

The battle situation here has many more problems than the one he just solved.

This place should be on the transportation line of Distribution Center No. 3. A group of thugs have occupied the convoy. The number of this group of thugs is larger than those encountered before, probably as many as two hundred people; and some of them are evil.

The proportion of believers was also greater. Caudy took a quick look and saw five.

He knew how troublesome it was to deal with such a guy who could release sorcery. When a bullet hit their storm shield, it would take at least three magazines to be emptied before it could penetrate; and as soon as the opponent fired a wind bullet, it would hit them.

Like a grenade. What's more, there are a considerable number of armed thugs around it to provide protection.

Looking at it this way, the infantry platoon responsible for escorting the food was probably doomed. Whether all members were wiped out or some were defeated and turned into deserters, there was no hope for it.

There were also two infantry platoons coming from Distribution Center No. 3 for support. The person leading the team, Cody also knew, was also a "red hat" political commissar.

But the enemy they faced was too strong, and they couldn't defeat it at all.

All they can do is maintain the front line and ensure that the enemy cannot break out.

But the numbers are not superior, the other side has the help of magicians, and our own side has used rat weapons. Even if we have a few mortars, we don't dare to attack them, for fear of destroying the food.

In this case, their front is somewhat in danger.

Cody immediately led his troops and pushed forward.

He and the dozens of fresh troops he brought with him arrived at the scene and alleviated the situation to a great extent.

Cody found another red hat during the battle.

"Tardius! Thaddeus!"

"Coady?"

The red hat turned his head, somewhat surprised.

Cody didn't have time to reminisce about old times, so he immediately stated his purpose: "We can't fight like this, our cannons have to be used!"

"But those grain trucks..."

"Don't worry so much! Win the battle first and then talk about the food!" Cody said, pointing outwards, "Look over there! Someone is pouring fuel, and they want to burn the food! We can't let them succeed!"

After that, he fired a bunch of bullets in that direction, killing the person who threw the fuel, and then quickly retracted his head.

"Okay!" The political commissar named Thaddeus also made up his mind. He crouched, retreated, and began to issue orders.

Soon, the three platoon mortar teams were in position.

The firepower suddenly became much stronger.

After Thaddeus returned, Cody continued: "It's not enough, we have to find a way to deal with those warlocks."

"Do you have any idea?"

Cody grinned: "I'm not particularly good, I'm just trying my best. Do you dare?"

Thaddeus was stunned for a moment.

Cody patted his red armband and asked, "What's wrong? You are a political commissar, why are you still hesitant?"

"Fuck!" Thaddeus gritted his teeth.

"This is so decent!"

The two quickly formed a small team.

A total of seventeen people formed two vanguard squads.

They each led a team, divided into two ends, and weaved in and out from the outside.

Ten minutes later, Cody and his team were already in place.

He estimated that there were still two minutes left before the agreed time to launch the attack together.

He strictly ordered the soldiers not to show their heads and wait patiently.

The enemies seemed to feel that the frontal firepower seemed to be weakening. They were ready to move, and sent out their men to launch a tentative counterattack.

Seeing this scene, Cody was a little worried about whether there would be problems after the frontal defense lost almost one-fifth of its manpower.

But fortunately, I managed to withstand it for two minutes.

When the time came, the multiple mortars fired at the same time; the team's machine guns, which had changed their positions and had been silent for a while, also fired fiercely at the same time.

The soldiers also raised their heads vigorously and began to suppress the shooting with all their strength.

In this instant, the entire unit's firepower projection increased several times.

The armed thugs who occupied the convoy were suppressed for a moment. Even the many magicians did not dare to show up casually. Otherwise, even if they were supported by the storm shield, they were just some blue robes and their level was not up to the level.

If you reach the level of Gray Robe or even God Envoy, your shield will be shattered if you are hit by too many bullets.

And at this moment, Cody yelled: "Up, up, up! It's our turn! Don't waste the opportunities created by other comrades for us!"

After saying that, he was the first to rush out.
