He is two meters and five centimeters tall. Who made him a soldier?

They could hold on, but the opponent's combat capability was indeed superior to theirs.

This also resulted in the fact that they would lose some of their men in almost every round of attack by the enemy.

Later on, because the enemy's attacks were too frequent, Hill No. 2 was gradually lost.

As a last resort, they finally retreated to Hill No. 1.

"What's going on, Old Xue! Qinglong!"

"How many enemies have you eliminated so far? How many are left? There is only Hill No. 1 left. The pressure is really huge!"

On Hill No. 1, Ji Baichang took over Lu Qinglong and Xue Daochao who had retreated from Hill No. 2.

Behind the two men, there were only five veterans left in the third row; the rest had all been eliminated in the brutal positional battle just now.

The opponent's commander was very flexible and ruthless in his control over personnel deployment.

To give the simplest example, after being pelted with several rounds of grenades by Lu Qinglong, the other side either discovered that the explosives were grenades, or discovered that Lu Qinglong was the main cause of their casualties.

So they immediately covered Lu Qinglong with firepower and immediately dispersed the personnel. In short, it was very tricky and forced Lu Qinglong to dodge.

Then, in order to eliminate Lu Qinglong, the other side specially sent a squad of members to keep a close eye on Lu Qinglong. As soon as Lu Qinglong showed up, they suppressed him with firepower.

Then other people at this time
This is also the reason why Hill No. 2 was captured.

If the enemy had not pinned down Lu Qinglong, Hill No. 2 would basically not have been captured.

But the opponent was really cunning. In order to cover the retreat of Lu Qinglong and Xue Daochao, the veterans in the third row were forced to eliminate several of them.

"Not good. I feel like the enemy probably has about two platoons of soldiers left, maybe less than that, maybe five squads at most."

Lu Qinglong thought for a moment and then responded to Ji Baichang's words.

Since the other side dares to launch wave after wave of attacks, it means that they have an absolute advantage in numbers and are confident.

If it were him, he would never dare to mobilize all the troops he could at once.

There is a bit of gambler's nature in it.

Therefore, Lu Qinglong was certain that the other side should still have a lot of troops left.

"Sigh~"

"Then it's up to us at Hill No. 1 now?"

"Don't worry, Old Xue! They will never be able to attack our No. 1 Hill."

"I'm not setting a flag or anything. Lu Qinglong and I have already anticipated what might happen, so we built three bunkers in the direction of your No. 2 Highland."

"Anyway, it's unrealistic that the enemy will definitely come up from Hill No. 2. This is all within my expectations!"

Ji Baichang said with a proud tone in his voice.

It was just to be on the safe side. After all, the capture of Hill No. 2 seemed impossible to Ji Baichang at first. But now this impossible thing has actually been done by the enemy.

"I hope so. I'm out of bullets. Ji Baichang, give me two magazines. I won't stay with you on Hill No. 1 anymore. I'm going to sneak into the jungle to disgust them."

Xue Daochao extended his hand towards Ji Baichang.

"Huh? Are you going to harass them?"

"Okay, then remember to report their number and so on."

"understood."

After Xue Daochao took the three magazines, he immediately went into the woods nearby.

Now their communications have basically been cut off. If they want to understand the enemy's movements, they can only rely on manpower, such as Xue Daochao.

Xue Daochao is very competent for this job, and no one else can do it like him.

Lu Qinglong is too big and can be easily discovered during reconnaissance. Ji Baichang needs to command the five classes on Hill No. 1.

The military quality of the other veterans on Hill No. 1 is also inferior to Xue Daochao, so Xue Daochao is the only one who can carry out the task.

At this time, the commander of the airborne company that captured Hill No. 2 counted the number of remaining personnel.

The result made him couldn't help but shake his head.

In order to capture Hill No. 2, they only had one last platoon left.

The others were all shot down and eliminated in the previous battles for the two high grounds.

The casualty rate was far beyond what he had expected.

One of the most important points is that there seems to be a monster-like guy among the opposing blue team.

This man was so huge that when I first saw him, I thought I saw a ghost!

The key point is that this guy is terrifyingly strong. If he hadn't been discovered by the drone, he would really think that some evil supernatural incident had occurred in the company.

How can one person throw a grenade more than a hundred meters!

Is this still a normal person? He wanted to ask.

This guy alone caused him to lose at least an entire platoon of soldiers.

Otherwise, attacking Hill No. 2 would not have been so difficult. At most, we would have lost a squad. How could it be like now, where one and a half platoons went in and there was not a single splash?

"Captain, our losses seem to be frighteningly large."

A squad leader standing in front of the company commander couldn't help but speak.

Before they parachuted in, they did not take the enemy seriously at all, thinking that it was just an attack on a few ordinary hills as usual.

Even before the exercise began, they thought they would only have to lose one platoon at most to take over all the hills, but the result was beyond everyone's expectations.

Now there is only one platoon left standing here, the other three platoons have been wiped out.

"I know, what do you think of the remaining Hill No. 1?"

"Or who among you is sure to take Hill No. 1?"

The company commander asked, looking at his men.

The other men looked at each other, and no one dared to answer the company commander for a while.

Almost half a minute had passed before a corporal reported:

"Captain, I think our only option is to attack upwards from Hill No. 2, right?"

"The enemy was very cunning! They must have expected us to attack from the rear, so they cut down all the trees and other shelters in the rear."

"Then they built bunkers on both sides and waited for us to take the bait."

"So we definitely can't attack from the rear."

"We can launch a feint attack from the front, but actually launch the general attack from Hill No. 2."

"I just don't believe it. Can they set up defenses near the friendly forces on Hill No. 2?"

The corporal's tone was very firm, and it seemed to make sense.

Even the squad leader's eyes lit up after hearing this and he praised the corporal for his good idea.

"What you said is quite good, but there is a loophole in the middle. What if the enemy has set up defenses on Hill No. 2?" "We need to think about this issue carefully. I think the plan of feinting from the front is advisable. As for the rest, let me think about it again."

The company commander held his forehead and thought for a moment, then looked at the map in his hand. After thinking for half a minute, he said:
"So, squad five, you guys will make a feint attack from the front, and squad seven and squad eight, each of you will select two people to go from the direction of Hill No. 2 and provide fire coverage to Hill No. 1."

"The rest of you can go around from the back. I still feel that the enemy's number of people guarding Hill No. 1 is not that large."

"We can take advantage of the fact that the enemy mistakenly thinks we are attacking the front and Hill No. 2, and strike them from behind with a fatal blow."

"As long as we can capture the fortress, we can rely on it to slowly nibble our way up."

The opposing company commander's plan was very good. As an old company commander who had been in the special operations brigade for more than four years, his mind worked very quickly. After all, for commanders like them, in this type of combat mode, what they had to compete with was strategy and brains.

Whoever can think quickly and use tricks beyond the book will win.

After all, in an offensive and defensive battle, the defending side always has a natural advantage. If he cannot capture the No. 1 high ground with this trick, then he will accept the loss.

"Copy that, Captain!"

The remaining platoon of soldiers arrived at their positions in batches as their company commander had instructed, and waited quietly for his orders.

"Old Xue? Old Xue, what's going on over there?"

"Have you seen any enemies? If you have, please report it quickly. Why is there no sound? Could it be that they have been eliminated?"

Ji Bai called out to Xue Daochao.

It took Xue Daochao ten seconds before he answered:

"Stop making noise. I saw a group of about nine enemies advancing towards the front of Hill No. 1."

"Ji Baichang, pay attention to the front of Hill No. 1. Don't miss it. Let everyone cheer up."

"I see they have split into three groups. I'm going to follow the group with the largest number of people. The headset needs to be muted. Don't call me again. This is a one-way communication now."

After Xue Daochao said these words to Ji Baichang, he disappeared.

"Pay attention to the front of Hill No. 1. Be alert to the three bunkers in front. The enemy will soon launch an attack from the front!"

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Ji Baichang had just finished speaking when a burst of rapid gunfire was heard from the direction of Hill No. 2 on the right towards Hill No. 1.

"Platoon leader! We are also under attack from the east!"

"Don't worry, you are all in the bunker anyway! They can't hit you, just shoot when you see someone, don't blame anyone else!"

Ji Baichang replied.

But just as he said this, Ji Baichang paused and said into the headset:
"Everyone, pay attention! Stay at your posts and do not leave the bunker without my order!"

"There's a trap! There may be three waves of enemies!"

Ji Baichang figured it out!
Xue Daochao just said that there are three waves of enemies, but the largest number of enemies don’t seem to be attacking them directly!
That very likely means that the current frontal attack and the enemy on Hill No. 2 are all feints! The enemy's main attack is likely to be somewhere else!

"Are we going to attack from the rear? That shouldn't be the case, right?"

Ji Baichang muttered to himself, feeling an inexplicable urge in his heart.

He felt as if he had seen through all of the other party's schemes and tricks!

"Bai Chang, let me go to the rear to take a look, in case they attack from the rear and we are unable to react."

"If it's positive, I'll leave it to you."

Lu Qinglong patted Ji Baichang's shoulder, picked up a thick tree trunk on the ground, held the trunk in one hand and a light machine gun in the other and walked forward.

"Why are you all leaving? Okay, okay, then I'll be the one commanding alone."

To be honest, Ji Baichang still felt a lot of pressure.

In particular, firing was already underway in the direction of Hill No. 2 on the right and in the front.

Under such circumstances, the pressure on him as a commander was very great.

"Captain! We are being followed!"

"I feel like someone is following us."

A fourth-term non-commissioned officer paused, then quickly walked over to the company commander and whispered in his ear.

"Hmm? Are you sure?"

"Sure, I'm sure we're being followed. How about I take two people with me and take care of the tail behind us?"

"Okay, then squad leader Li, please pay attention."

"Okay company commander."

The old sergeant demonstrated his skills to two of his veteran soldiers who were good at fighting.

The three of them quietly hid themselves from the end of the team, crawled in the jungle, and waited quietly for the pursuer behind them.

About a minute later, a pursuer dressed in blue army uniform appeared behind them.

But they were still a little surprised that the pursuer was actually a second lieutenant.

"A platoon leader who just graduated from the military academy?"

"They dared to chase us directly, didn't you notice it?"

The old sergeant looked at the two new sergeants beside him and asked.

The two new NCOs shook their heads.

If their old squad leader hadn't asked them to stay where they were, they would never have noticed that there was a second lieutenant of the Blue Army following them.

"Get ready. Listen to my command and get ready to act."

The old sergeant stared at the figure in front of him and started counting down.

"three."

"two."

"Boom!"

Xue Daochao, who was originally following forward, suddenly turned around, aimed at the jungle in front of him and pulled the trigger.

"hidden!"

The old sergeant pushed away the new sergeant closest to him, then rolled away from the spot.

The two sides immediately exchanged fire.

None of Xue Daochao's bullets hit the three opponents. After a brief exchange of fire, while they were changing bullets, he was suppressed by the three opponents' firepower.

"Damn it, which one of you two was exposed? How come this guy can shoot faster than us! And he knows our location?"

It was the first time that the old sergeant encountered such a weird thing.

Logically speaking, they should be hiding well, right?
But why was it discovered?
The enemy's military quality is very strong. Even if three people suppress him alone with firepower, he feels that he can't suppress the enemy for long. (End of this chapter)
