We promised to develop a game called Candy Crush, what the hell is the Third Reich?

Chapter 199 [Skillful Crossing of the Jinsha River] A One in Ten Thousand Possibility Shocks the Blue Star (5k)

boom--!
boom--!
The shells tore through the air and whistled as they landed on the position.

The dense barrage of shells shook the earth, and dirt and gravel rained down like a storm, pelting the soldiers in the trenches.

But no one was afraid.

All eyes were fixed on the enemy troops surging in from afar like a tidal wave.

Under the suppression of artillery fire.

The enemy gradually advanced, getting closer and closer: 500 meters, 300 meters, 200 meters.
"beat!!!"

With a loud shout.

boom!boom!
Tu tu tu tu——!
Deafening gunfire erupted from the trenches, firing at the enemy troops on the opposite side, who in turn turned to engage.

Bullets flew everywhere.

boom!
"one!"

boom!
boom!
boom!
"two"

Chi Feng pulled back the bolt of his gun and had just killed the second enemy soldier when he suddenly heard a shrill whistle.

He instinctively shrank into the trench.

boom--! ! !
A shell hit the trench next to them directly, and three soldiers were instantly blown to pieces. Chi Feng was also numb from the shockwave and rolled away uncontrollably.

thump!
A severed arm fell in front of Chi Feng, startling him so much that he instinctively moved backward.

After a few seconds of surprise and uncertainty, I realized it was a game.

Many of the viewers in the live stream were new players and were startled by this sudden scene.

Fortunately, it was just watching a live stream.

At this moment, the battle situation in the game did not give Chi Feng any time to rest.

Gunshots rang incessantly in my ears.

Chi Feng shook his head, raised his numb hands, picked up the rifle, and began firing directly from inside the trench.

The enemy troops charged under their commander's orders, and fell in droves like wheat being harvested.

But more enemies continued their charge, stepping over the corpses of their comrades.

The 34th Red Army Division was mainly armed with light weapons, including rifles, pistols, and even a small number of light machine guns, all of which were captured. They were facing the enemy's human wave tactics.

Gradually, their strength became insufficient.

After all, a rifle can only fire one shot at a time, so the limited number of light machine guns wouldn't be of much use either.

Soon the enemy troops advanced to within tens of meters of the forward trenches.

far away.

The company commander of Chi Feng's unit shouted in a hoarse voice:

"Grenades ready!!"

Hear the order.

Chi Feng put down his rifle, picked up a wooden-handled grenade, unscrewed the back cover, and pulled out the fuse.

After taking a deep breath, I silently counted to three.

He suddenly stood up and threw it with all his might!

However, due to his lack of skill in throwing, the grenade only flew about twenty or thirty meters in an arc through the air before the enemy's charge was already close.

boom--! ! !
Several enemy soldiers were blown to the ground.

However, the enemy, relying on its numerical advantage, advanced regardless of casualties.

After throwing all his grenades, Chi Feng picked up his rifle and fired mechanically. Enemy soldiers fell one after another, but his comrades around him also fell one after another.

boom!
A soldier firing nearby was hit in the head.

Chi Feng collapsed.

The corpse crashed into Chi Feng, who turned his head and gasped for breath.

It's Li Erwa.

That boy was only 17 years old.

He had been shot between the eyebrows and had already stopped breathing.

During the day, he was saying that he was only 17 years old, an age when he would still be in school on Earth.

He just collapsed right here.

But the battlefield doesn't give him time to think.

Because after that round of artillery fire.

The enemy troops have already stormed the position, and the company commander in the distance shouted loudly:

"Fix bayonets!!!"

After shouting, he picked up a rifle with a bayonet and charged towards the enemy.

One, two, three. Until he killed the fifth enemy soldier, he was grabbed by two enemy soldiers who rushed up to him, and the three of them fought.

boom--!
The shells falling from the sky hit the front line squarely.

Not only the company commander, but the enemy also spared their own men. A barrage of artillery fire wiped out all the enemy troops and soldiers of the 34th Red Army Division in front of them.

Chi Feng also fixed bayonets and charged out from the side of the trench.

He stabbed an enemy soldier in the abdomen, then pulled out the knife and charged left and right through the chaotic battlefield, instilling fear in many enemy soldiers for a time.

At this time.

Chi Feng suddenly saw his old squad leader being surrounded by three enemy soldiers to his left front, and without thinking, he went to support him.

However, a grenade suddenly flew over.

It landed next to Chi Feng.

Before Chi Feng could even lie down, Boom—!!!
The shockwave from the explosion spread rapidly.

Chi Feng felt dizzy and his ears were filled with a buzzing sound. He could no longer control his body and felt as if he had been thrown into the air and then crashed into something.

The viewpoint was completely dark.

However, since it didn't return to the main menu, it's clearly still alive.

Chi Feng and the viewers in the live stream breathed a sigh of relief.

Two minutes later.

boom!
Suddenly, a loud explosion came from the live broadcast room. Chi Feng slowly regained control of his body, opened his eyes, got up, and looked at the scene in front of him.

The battle continues
Compared to before he fell unconscious, there were now three more layers of corpses in front of the position, piled up into a slope.

The enemy troops were still firmly held back outside the position.

Chi Feng staggered to his feet, picked up his bayonet, and prepared to continue the fight.

I had only walked about ten meters.

Snapped!
Suddenly his ankle was grabbed, and Chi Feng turned around abruptly with his bayonet in hand, only to find that it was his old squad leader.

At this moment, the old squad leader was lying on the ground covered in blood, with two enemy soldiers beside him, their blood flowing everywhere. They watched as the old squad leader clung tightly to them.

Chi Feng quickly squatted down, wanting to help the old squad leader up.

The old sergeant, however, was already delirious, clutching tightly to the ankle in front of him, as if the gray military uniform on that ankle was the most obvious identifier. His voice was weak and intermittent as he spoke:

"Main force!"

"Pass"

"Pass"

Hearing the old squad leader's words, Chi Feng felt a pang of pain in his heart.

Looking into the old squad leader's cloudy eyes, a final glimmer of determination flickered within them.

Enemy troops were still attacking from all sides.

Chi Feng's eyes welled up with tears, and his throat felt like it was blocked by a burning coal. He clenched his teeth and leaned down to whisper in the old squad leader's ear:

"We've crossed the river!"

"The main force has crossed the river!!!"

Chi Feng's words were like a shot of adrenaline.

The old squad leader's unfocused pupils suddenly brightened for a moment, and the corners of his mouth seemed to tremble slightly, as if he had put down some immense burden.

Chi Feng felt his ankle loosen, and the large, iron-like hand completely lost its strength.

Chi Feng could move his foot again, but his old squad leader and his comrades were gone forever. Chi Feng carefully pulled his foot out.

Looking at the enemy troops attacking the position in the distance, he gripped his rifle tightly.

He charged toward the place where the enemy was launching a fierce attack, bayonet in hand.

The "Bloody Battle of Xiangjiang" storyline triggered by the Blue Star players took everyone by surprise.

As a soldier of the 34th Red Army Division, and the first streamer to trigger the "Battle of Xiangjiang" storyline, he persisted for only half a day.

The identity he controlled died on the battlefield.

Whether the main force crossed the river or where they got there, the players on Earth had no idea.

The only streamer who triggered the plot has survived on the battlefield for half a day.

The various events in the "Battle of Xiangjiang" storyline have also sparked discussions on player forums.

Whether it's the old sergeant's past, the stories told by the young soldiers, or the villagers who came to see off the Red Army at the corner of the mountain, it all makes you feel that this is more than just a game.

This has given Blue Star players more to think about.

the other side.

The streamer who triggered the 'Fourth Encirclement/Counter-Encirclement' and 'Fifth Encirclement/Counter-Encirclement'.

The plot is now halfway through.

The fourth counter-encirclement campaign was successful, but during the fifth counter-encirclement campaign, many players on Blue Star already sensed something was wrong.

The two storylines were triggered around the same time.

Therefore, the two live streams were almost simultaneous.

And when watching simultaneously.

The combat styles in the live streams of the fourth and fifth counter-encirclement campaigns were significantly different.

However, netizens on Earth are also unclear about what happened.

We can only continue watching the plot unfold.

According to the timeline, after the Battle of Xiangjiang, came the Four Crossings of the Chishui River.

Blue Star players are still waiting for someone to trigger the "Four Crossings of the Chishui River".

Surprisingly, someone triggered the storyline following the "Four Crossings of the Chishui River" event first.

at this time.

Inside the live stream room of host Liu Chen on the Tiansha live streaming platform.

The streamer also chose 1931 from the game's launch and kept skipping the storyline in an attempt to trigger the "Four Crossings of the Chishui River" event.

However, they haven't encountered any Red forces yet.

As more and more information was revealed, Liu Chen rushed to the Soviet area, only to overestimate the transportation capacity of the "Republic of China" at that time.

They kept skipping over obstacles until they reached the Soviet area.

The red team's forces are already surrounded by the blue team and cannot get in at all.

We could only wait outside.

As a result, they only encountered the red faction that had emerged after the "Four Crossings of the Chishui River".

He was then introduced to the local people and joined the Red Army.

Then we headed west.

Upon entering Liu Chen's live stream, the viewpoint is that of a military march.

A map was also displayed in the live stream room, and Liu Chen explained: "Currently, the red team has completed the 'Four Crossings of the Chishui River' and has broken out from the Guiyang direction."

"We're almost there, near Kunming."

"It's just that we're turning again, preparing to cross the river."

In the live stream, Liu Chen marked the routes taken by the various red factions after leaving Guiyang.

can be seen.

After breaking out of the Guiyang area, they headed west.

They had now arrived near Kunming.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Chen began marking the surrounding enemy forces on the map.

This bid is not important.

The hundreds of thousands of viewers in the live stream were completely mesmerized.

So, even after breaking through the enemy lines during the "Four Crossings of the Chishui River," there were still so many enemy troops?

It wasn't just the enemy's pursuit.

The surrounding blue-marked cities also have local troops assisting in the pursuit.

Inside the live stream, Liu Chen spoke as he traveled:

"I am currently in the core team."

"Preparing to head to Jiaopingdu."

"The Jinsha River lies ahead."

"On the Polestar website's preview page, there's a timeline for 'Skillfully Crossing the Jinsha River'."

"It should trigger once it's ready."

"But the blue team definitely won't leave us any boats or bridges. Since it's called Jiang, it probably won't be easy to cross, right?"

"How exactly should we cross the river?"

As Liu Chen spoke, the netizens on Blue Star were also pondering.

indeed.

Looking at the current map, even if we break out of Guiyang, we will be surrounded by enemy troops.

They were densely packed together, and there were even several enemy divisions on the opposite bank of the river.

under such circumstances.

How could the blue team possibly leave ships and bridges for the red team?

A clever crossing?

How coincidental could it be that this army only numbered twenty or thirty thousand?
What clever way is there to get across this?

Aside from defying physics, how else can we get through this?
For a while, the players on Earth were speculating, but they couldn't figure it out no matter how hard they tried.

Some players even used the Photon supercomputer to calculate various methods.

With an army of 20,000 to 30,000, and the enemy right behind them, how could they cross the river with almost no boats or bridges?

However, almost all of the answers were no.

Only a few answers can get you through, but those answers seem almost impossible for Blue Star players to complete.

The answer is that we can get through it.
With a certain number of ships, how many people are transported each time, and how many times is this process repeated?

There was no chaos at all, so that a small number of boats could be used to ferry twenty to thirty thousand people across.

Simply calculate the result.

They completely disregarded any practical considerations.

Blue Star players don't believe this calculation result is likely to be successful.

After all, I've been playing games for so long.

I've basically played with the forces of all the various factions on 'Earth'.

Even the empire's most elite troops couldn't remain completely undisturbed under such circumstances, with tens of thousands of men present.

however.

The irony came quickly.

As the Red Army marched forward, many Blue Star netizens tuned in to watch the live stream after learning that Liu Chen's live stream was about to trigger the "Skillful Crossing of the Jinsha River" event.

I'd like to see the plot of this "Skillful Crossing of the Jinsha River".

I also want to know how to "skillfully cross" the river.

As time passed, Liu Chen's unit was about to reach the Jinsha River.

Some viewers in the live stream chat mentioned that the Polaris website had updated its CG.

However, most people stayed in the live stream room, since the infighting in the live stream room was about to begin. They had been waiting for so long, and they would watch the CG later.

at this time.

A long line has formed along the Jinsha River.

Liu Chen, who was at the back of the group, had no idea what was going on ahead. He could only wait for the orders from the front along with the viewers in the live stream.

Not long after.

The previous orders were passed to Liu Chen in sequence.

But this order.

This caused Liu Chen and the viewers in the live stream to widen their eyes, because this was one of the tens of thousands of results generated by the Photon supercomputer.

The few possible routes to successfully cross the river were those that they considered impossible.

It's somewhat different from the results predicted by the photon supercomputer.

The red team at this point.

It has only 7 boats, the large ones can carry 30 people and the small ones can carry 11 people.

Before Liu Chen even reached the riverbank, he was informed of the "River Crossing Rules" issued from the front lines.

Cross the river in the designated order; pushing and shoving are strictly prohibited.

Horseplay and roughhousing are prohibited on the boat. Please maintain order.

Each vessel must have a designated captain responsible for command and safety.

Clearly define the allocation of personnel and resources.

As the "Rules for Crossing the River" were relayed, all the viewers on Blue Star in the live broadcast room, including Liu Chen, were stunned.

Tens of thousands of people crossed the river without fighting or grabbing, relying solely on a few boats?
is it possible?

no one knows.

However, as the order was given, all the troops followed it and hid in an orderly manner, waiting for their turn to cross the river.

Liu Chen sat in the corner, seemingly lost in thought, but was actually discussing something with his viewers in the live stream.

Two or three thousand people, seven boats.

Excluding the boatmen and the river crossing commander, each time they could probably ferry about a hundred people.

How many trips would that take?

Even without any mistakes, it would take hundreds of attempts to succeed.

And how long does it take to cross the river each time?

Although Liu Chen and the viewers in the live stream didn't know this, it certainly wouldn't be short.

After all, it's 'Jiang'.

They waded across every small river.

The viewers in the live stream followed Liu Chen's perspective, waiting to see when a disturbance would occur.

Some viewers went outside to watch the CG.

Liu Chen wanted to watch the CG several times, but considering his involvement, he managed to resist the urge to.

The viewers who saw the CG were simply amazed.

Time passed slowly, day and night cycled in the game, and enemy planes would occasionally scout overhead.

A blink of an eye.

Six days have passed in the game.

And through bullet comments.

Liu Chen also learned of the successful river crossing, but like the netizens on Blue Star who had been watching, he still found it hard to believe.

Especially those who are personally involved.

I've witnessed it firsthand; six days have passed within the storyline, and there hasn't been a single disturbance.

The team moved forward in perfect unison, without making a sound.

And it's his turn now.

Liu Chen followed the group and walked to the riverbank under the cover of night.

On the turbulent Jinsha River, several wooden boats swayed and rocked in the waves, making Liu Chen and the viewers in the live broadcast room feel momentarily disoriented.

They relied on just these few wooden boats and extremely strict discipline.

They managed to turn the impossible into the possible.

Liu Chen followed the group ahead, boarded the ship, and found his position according to the number he had been notified in advance.

The entire team remained completely silent throughout the entire process.

Only after the boat was full did the boatman speak:

"Sit tight."

They then maneuvered the boat and slowly moved away from the shore.

The sound of rushing river water filled the air, but what shocked the viewers in the live stream was far more than just a little.

The solution that was derived as the 'optimal solution' in the photonic supercomputer was considered by them to be the least likely to succeed.

At this point, the Red Army succeeded due to their absolute discipline.

Until dawn.

The wooden boat, which can only hold 11 people, docked.

As Liu Chen walked ashore, he looked back at the Jinsha River and felt a moment of disorientation.

Did they really make it through?
Inside the live stream, the chat exploded after Liu Chen finally arrived.

Is this level of discipline even achievable by a human?

[What we see in CG is still conservative; this is even more outrageous than a science fiction movie!]

Are the enemy reconnaissance planes blind? How could they not detect this?!

[The enemy troops in front aren't blind; the Red Army's discipline is just too strong!]

[We suggest investigating whether these soldiers are robots; how can tens of thousands of them maintain such discipline!]

[Photon Supercomputing: Haters, speak up! Is my optimal solution acceptable?]

[Hilarious! Okay, that's great! Apologize to the Photon supercomputer!]

Bugle calls could be heard in the distance.

Liu Chen snapped out of his daze and caught up with the troops ahead. The troops that had successfully crossed the river were now assembling.

Beyond the Jinsha River should be the Luding Bridge.

As Liu Chen pondered this, he also pulled up the CG of "Crossing the Jinsha River Cleverly," which he hadn't watched yet.

In the live broadcast room.

A golden barrage of comments slowly drifted by:

Now I know why they won that final victory.

Miracles never fall from the sky.
