At eight o'clock in the morning, the deputy captain disassembled the machine gun and abandoned the moving body, leaving only the gun body for easy portability. He placed the gun on the ridge, and the ring fortification was declared completed.

The situation is much better than expected, and they may be able to overcome this difficulty easily.

When the soldiers were nervous, they would look to the top of the mountain from time to time. Although they could not see clearly what was going on above, everything that happened there would give them a sense of peace of mind.

The tired soldiers did not dare to sleep now, and some comforted themselves in their hearts, closing their eyelids that were almost unable to open, and telling themselves to squint for a while.

In the middle of the night, the scholar sneaked up the mountain with the new recruits. They had a very important mission, and they had to stop the scouts at the top of the mountain before they could report.

Their bodies were pressed against the cold stone, their abdomens were very uncomfortable, and their stomachs were growling.

After a night of squatting, they still hadn't discovered the location of Taihui's scouts, but they could vaguely sense that those scouts were here.

The top of the mountain is bare without any vegetation, and a few stones are the only coverings left. There are countless such miscellaneous stones, and a human body may be hidden anywhere.

The two took turns to rest. The recruit opened his eyes at the moment the sun rose. They could no longer sleep. The heavy bags under their eyes were slightly curved and they stared with their eyes.

They always have doubts about whether Taihui's scouts are not here at all, or not on the top of this mountain.

But Ben could keep the two of them calm. On such an important day, it was impossible for Taihui not to send someone here to observe.

Time passed again. The scholar looked at the height of the sun. It should be ten o'clock now. At this time, someone on the other side of the mountain yawned.

This yawn alerted the two people who were hiding. Their expressions immediately focused and their fingers unconsciously placed on the trigger.

After a collision, the Taihui scout wearing a steel helmet appeared in their sight. The distance between the two sides was fifteen meters. Fortunately, there was this distance, otherwise they would have been discovered that night.

The scout spoke a lot of bird language that Chili Guala couldn't understand, and with a wave of his hand, three more people dressed in the same dress came out.

They were all hidden in the cracks in the rocks, forming a semicircle with each other.

These people continued to talk in their own language. Two of them found a place to drain the accumulated water in their bodies, another stood on a relatively high stone to be on guard, and the last one walked leisurely to a place where he could have an overview of the battle.

When the scout reached the appropriate position, his voice suddenly became excited, and he shouted while grabbing the telescope hanging around his neck to look.

If nothing else, he has discovered something suspicious.

The recruit's gun was pointed at the man, and the scholar gently shook his palm to indicate waiting.

Then, the scouts who had finished draining the water and the scouts who were on alert ran over there at the same time. They were talking to each other, and the binoculars were passed between everyone's hands.

The scholar said softly: "I will deal with the two on the left and leave the rest to you."

The recruit nodded, and in order to avoid the sound, he slowly pulled the bolt of the gun. For this mission, Posen equipped them with captured weapons.

A scout pulled out a flare gun from his waist and loaded an extra-large flare in his hand. Just as he was about to load it, two gunshots, one after the other, directly interrupted his movements. He and another comrade-in-arms

Slowly curled up.

The remaining two reacted quickly and spread their legs to find a place to hide. The scholar and the recruit fired the second shot very quickly.

At such a close distance, they fell before they could find a bunker.

The scholar stood up slowly, followed closely by the recruits. They came to their respective target positions and determined the killing status. They were all killed in one blow.

The scholar put his rifle on his back and said to the recruit with a smile: "I bet that if I give you a little more time, you will be the next sharpshooter in our team."

The recruit also put his rifle on his back and responded: "This is too simple. I think we can spend the rest of the time easily."

"Maybe, you can't be proud, but I feel like the captain will praise us this time."

"Has the captain ever praised anyone?"

"Yes, it's in his love letter."

The scholar smiled, then walked towards the scout he killed first, and took the flare gun from that guy's hand. He happily raised the gun and faced the recruits: "Look what I found?"

The recruit also started laughing. He showed a smile just now, but it froze the next moment.

Before the scholar finished speaking, a hole opened in the hat on his head, and the back of his head suddenly exploded, and some strange things spewed out.

The scholar fell to the top of the mountain along with what was sprayed from the back of his head.

The recruit had no time to grieve, so he leaned against a stone and hid himself. As soon as he lowered his head, a bullet flew over his head.

If it were a few tenths of a second later, the recruit would be shot coldly.

His eyes were bloodshot and his brain was running wildly. The place where the gunshot came was less than twenty meters away. There were three stones in that direction, and the gunman was on one of them.

After calculating the factors of shooting in two different directions, the target should be between two rocks that are relatively close to each other.

He glanced at the place where the scholar fell. A second ago, the two were joking, but now they were far apart. He painfully realized that he would never see this person again, forever.

He hated so much why he was so careless. He should have carefully observed his surroundings. He even wished that he could turn back time and go back to a few minutes ago. However, this was destined to be impossible.

At this moment, he must try his best to kill the enemy and prevent the flare from being fired.

An accident also happened at this time. The ambushed enemy also had a signal gun in his hand. After the scream, a green light ball burned in the sky.

At the ridge, the deputy captain was also paying attention to the movements on the top of the mountain. He saw a small black dot fall from the fishing rod of the fisherman and smashed into a pulp five hundred meters away from him.

He couldn't tell whether the thing was friend or foe until a green ball of light appeared in the sky.

The ball of light announced everything, and the vice-captain was dejected. The plan had failed, and two of his men announced their sacrifices.

Pusen was also attracted by the green. He sighed and went back into the cat's ear hole, waiting for the coming storm.

Ten minutes later, the platoon leader who remained on the defensive line ran into Maoerdong.

"Company commander, they are coming."

Pusen braced himself and rushed to the trench, leaning on the excavated steps to step out step by step. When he reached the wide flat ground, he could already clearly see a straight line a thousand meters away.

The Taihui Army is marching.

Pusen shouted to the messenger: "Ask about the ridge position."

The messenger jogged a few steps to a place where he could stretch out his arms and waved the flag.

The ridge position on the south side echoed the trenches on the north side. The messenger reported the reply he received to his company commander: "Report, visual inspection of the enemy's strength is two battalions, and they are in a marching formation."

"March? They are marching?"

Pusen observed again with confusion. The marching Taihui army held their heads high and strolled leisurely as if they were undergoing a review, which was extremely abnormal.

"Order everyone to prepare for battle."

Taihui marched extremely calmly, and their formation was not chaotic at all. This made Pusen even more confused. According to his understanding, their enemies were of high fighting quality and should not have such a formation.

To be cautious, he decided to take another look.

When Taihui's army marched to 500 meters, the formation still did not change.

When they were three hundred meters away, the soldiers in the front row made a noise.

When Pusen saw this, he understood. Taihui's army didn't seem to realize that there would be an ambush here. They didn't realize what was going on here until they got closer.

Posen was not going to miss this opportunity and ordered the soldiers to shoot.

The soldiers waited for a long time on the steps of the excavation. Everyone came out of the trench and greeted them with rifles and machine guns at the same time.

Since Taihui's army was marching towards the middle line of defense, they were within the fire coverage of the two positions. Dozens of rifles and four machine guns burst out with intense firepower, causing Taihui's soldiers to fall in rows.

The men of the two battalions suffered heavy losses without any precautions. Their neat formation was simpler than shooting at a target, and the ferocious firepower forced them to flee backwards.

"Ceasefire!"

Looking at the fleeing enemy, Pu Sen was surprised. Is this still the same enemy? This fight was too simple.

The gunfire on the defense line stopped, and the fleeing figure of the Taihui Army made the party who felt victorious cheer together, and taunts came one after another.

Posen jumped down from the trench, pointed at his soldiers and shouted: "Take down the machine guns and prepare to avoid the cannons."

The soldiers were still unsatisfied and withdrew from Maoerdong following the order.

In just a few minutes, the artillery shells fell above the position, and the soldiers in the cave experienced what they had been experiencing these days.

Artillery shells fell one after another, and debris and rocks flew all over the sky. The position that had been bombed countless times was plowed again.

The scholar's mansion was repeatedly hit with rocks and earth, and finally collapsed under the load.

The artillery fire was not as intensive as before, which was expected, and Taihui's reserves were not much.

After the shelling ended, Pusen rushed out immediately. He walked up the steps. Some of the steps were damaged by the bombing, so it was a bit difficult to walk.

Looking into the distance, the enemy did not rush to attack, but it was certain that the next round of offensive would come soon, because the previous attack had already exposed its firepower and numbers.

Pusen breathed a sigh of relief. He suddenly understood the problem. It was all caused by the . Green may represent safety.

But Pusen didn't understand why Taihui's scouts sent such a signal.

Arranging people to stay and observe, Pusen walked to the mansion built by the scholar and rescued the eaves from the dust.
Chapter completed!
