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

Chapter 200 [A Day and a Night of 240-Li Forced March] Iron Chains Across the River

As the storyline and CG of "Skillfully Crossing the Jinsha River" are triggered.

All the viewers on Blue Star were gathered in Liu Chen's live stream room.

We await the next move by the Red Army.

The latest map is displayed in Liu Chen's live stream room.

At this point, they had been crossing the river for seven days and seven nights.

With absolute discipline that was unbelievable to the people of Earth, they successfully completed the photon supercomputing simulation.

Of the tens of thousands of possibilities, only a few will lead to a successful crossing of the river.

In the live broadcast room.

Liu Chen was panting heavily as he followed the team over mountains and valleys.

Wow!

He lost his footing, and the loose stones beside him tumbled down the mountain path with a crash, but fortunately, his comrades behind him caught him.

Liu Chen thanked his comrades behind him, then continued forward without delay, panting heavily as he whispered:
"We've now crossed the fifth mountain."

Liu Chen held his breath, took a few quick steps, and finally reached the top of the slope, letting out a long sigh of relief.

"call--"

The downhill speed was much lighter.

Moreover, the downhill section was easier to walk, so Liu Chen freed up his attention to bring up the map of the live stream and showed it to the viewers in the live stream.

Different colored lines are used on the map to represent different rivers.

Liu Chen looked at the golden lines on the ground and said:

"This is the Jinsha River."

"We've just crossed over here, and our current goal is to reach the Dadu River."

"That is, the blue line at the top of the map."

"According to the orders from above, we must reach Luding Bridge within three days."

"Judging from the distance on the map..."

"A forced march of more than 160 kilometers in three days is simply unimaginable."

"And this is under the condition that everyone is carrying a lot of burdens."

talking.

From Liu Chen's perspective, the soldiers advancing ahead were each carrying various loads of equipment.

Weapons, ammunition, and even the cook carrying an iron pot on his back—the pots and pans combined looked like they weighed no less than thirty or forty pounds.

They even jogged along the way.

And the entire team is in the same situation.

Each soldier was wearing a thin military uniform, and most of them wore straw sandals. How many pairs of straw sandals must have worn out on a 160-kilometer journey?

Netizens on Earth don't dare to calculate it.

Because in those scenes, many soldiers' straw sandals were already tattered and worn out.

With just these resources, how could they possibly undertake a forced march of over 160 kilometers?
This is unacceptable.
The netizens on Earth were about to raise questions, but they suddenly stopped themselves.

Because this team always manages to create miracles.

Netizens on Earth are ready to continue watching.

Anyway, what takes three days of forced marching in the game, according to the game's fast-forwarding and time ratio, is only a day in reality on Earth.

With a forced march.

Netizens on Earth soon discovered that it was not as simple as a forced march.

On the first day of the raid.

Liu Chen's Red Army unit experienced several small battles before continuing its rapid advance towards Luding Bridge.

There were still quite a few such small groups of enemies along the marching route.

A morning has passed in the real world of Earth.

The red team in the game also finished their first day of marching.

Liu Chen and the netizens in the live broadcast room calculated using the map that they had marched about 45 kilometers in one day and one night.

At this pace, we only need to speed things up a little more over the next two days.

Maybe it really can be done.

Liu Chen himself could hardly believe the result.

Netizens on Earth were also somewhat confused.

It turns out that many things are simply beyond their experience, not incapable of being done.

Each soldier on the Red Army was carrying so much weight, and as a result, they only managed to march about 45 kilometers in a day. Wouldn't they have been able to do it even faster if they hadn't been carrying any weight?

Perhaps walking 160 kilometers in three days is not a problem at all.

Just the next day.

The new order truly left netizens on Earth completely bewildered.

The original three-day plan was shortened to two days.

And because a day has already passed.

So now we only have one day left to reach Luding Bridge.

At this point, Luding Bridge was still a full 120 kilometers away.

crazy.

Absolutely crazy!

The marching speed on the first day has already been measured at 45 kilometers per hour.

This nearly tripled the distance.

Doesn't that mean we need to march three times faster than yesterday to reach Luding Bridge?
This is impossible!

This has already surpassed the limits of human understanding on Earth.

It simply cannot be done.

No matter how many miracles they create, it's impossible for them to accomplish it!

Even after the game's storyline was revealed.

It caused an uproar on the game forums, and even the Federal Headlines, which hadn't been online for a long time, rushed to comment.

The reason for this is that running 120 kilometers in one day and one night was too much of a challenge.

Many students and experts in similar fields have expressed their doubts, feeling that it was indeed a bit excessive, even if the intention was to design some shocking plots.

That should be based on common sense.

It is not advisable to continue creating illogical situations solely for the sake of a dramatic plot.

And this is just a march.

After reaching Luding Bridge, another battle will take place.

After a forced march of 120 kilometers, can they still fight?

The online discussion was extremely heated.

Meanwhile, all the troops in the Great Xia Federation, whether generals or soldiers, couldn't help but open Liu Chen's live stream while watching the headlines.

I want to see the process of the Red Army's capture of Luding Bridge before the establishment of the Republic. It's different from what ordinary players and netizens do.

Basically, all the soldiers of the Great Xia Federation have experienced the exclusive hidden dungeon, "Bloody Battle of San Suoli".

A forced march of 72.5 kilometers in 14 hours.

It has tempered the will of countless soldiers of the Great Xia Federation.

This is the plot of "Seizing the Luding Bridge".

A forced march of 120 kilometers in a day and a night is a longer distance than the Battle of Sansuoli. It's just a question of whether Liu Chen can keep up.

As for whether the Red Army can complete the task?

Having experienced the hidden storylines of the Republic in later generations, the soldiers of the Great Xia Federation never doubted the Red Army's forces.

The events that unfolded after the founding of the Republic are enough to demonstrate the strength of this force.

At this moment, both generals and soldiers of the Great Xia Federation were waiting for the battle at Luding Bridge.

And in the game.

The unit where the anchor Liu Chen was stationed, taking advantage of the early morning fog, annihilated an enemy battalion and continued their rapid march towards Luding Bridge.

They eliminated small groups of enemies along the way.

But this is only the beginning of the difficulties.

After a day of marching, Liu Chen was too exhausted to speak.

The only way to maintain one's own state is to adjust the touch sensitivity, pain sensitivity, etc., in the settings.

The sky has darkened.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, and a torrential downpour began.

The already rugged mountain road turned into a mud pit.

Every step required immense physical exertion, and many soldiers had lost their straw sandals, their whereabouts unknown, and they walked barefoot on the muddy mountain path.

The rain gradually stopped late at night.

But the team did not stop.

At this point, they were only a few dozen miles away from Luding Bridge.

At this time.

The line suddenly stopped.

On the opposite bank, a long dragon made of torches appeared, also moving towards the Luding Bridge.

It was clearly an enemy reinforcement force.

Fortunately, the red team was in the shadows at this time, and the enemy troops on the opposite bank holding torches did not notice them.

Seeing this, the viewers in the live stream also felt a pang of anxiety.

But soon.

The order came from the front, and the red team quickly raised their torches and caught up with the enemy on the opposite bank.

Because they were separated by a river, neither side could see the other side clearly.

However, the enemy troops who dared to openly carry torches naturally regarded the red team as friendly forces.

They inquired about the unit's designation across the river.

Meanwhile, the commander on the red side informed the enemy of their numbers, which they had defeated during the day, and continued to advance at a faster pace.

The enemy forces on the other side also wanted to speed up, not wanting anyone to steal the credit.

But seeing the torches on the opposite bank moving faster and faster, and the soldiers behind them already complaining, they could only stop cursing.

Rest where you are.

After all, an order is an order, but your life is your own.

Moreover, after it had broken away from the sphere of influence of Nanjing.

The warlords in Yunnan and Sichuan, who were content to rule as local tyrants, would hardly be willing to sacrifice themselves for a single order from Nanjing. They might be willing to work, but whether they would actually contribute their labor was another matter entirely.
The enemy troops on the opposite bank stopped to rest, but the troops on the red side did not.

Liu Chen, who was in the middle of the group, kept broadcasting the situation on both sides until the enemy troops on the opposite bank stopped after following them for more than 10 miles.

Only then did the viewers in the live stream breathe a sigh of relief.

And at this time.

It's just two turns away from Luding Bridge, a journey of only a few kilometers.

Although there are brief cutscenes to skip in the game.

However, all along the way, the viewers in the live stream have been watching Liu Chen follow the team from the moment he received the order until now.

Even if the journey might feel shorter due to skipping parts of the story.

However, the situation of the team, as well as Liu Chen's situation, shows that this is not an impossible task.

But when Liu Chen looked back at the team...

Many people were found to be missing, but the line did not stop.

A day and a night of marching 120 kilometers, all of which were earned with their lives.

It continued until dawn.

The iron chain bridge spanning the river in the distance had already come into view of the Red Army soldiers.

But when you get close enough to touch it...

The joy of arriving at Luding Bridge was completely shattered.

It is indeed an iron chain spanning the river.

But those 13 cold iron chains were completely bare; all the wooden planks had been removed.

If you want to cross the bridge.

The only way to cross was by climbing over the iron chains, but the machine gun positions on the other side of the bridge were clearly visible, with the dark muzzles of several machine guns pointed directly at the 13 iron chains.

The roar of the Dadu River echoed in their ears, and everyone's hearts sank.

How do we get across?

In an instant.

Once the barrage of comments falls silent, a torrent of comments will erupt:
[Rough! Rough! Rough! (of a plant)]

I literally suffocated.

[After a 120-kilometer forced march, they rushed here at all costs, only to be met with this?! Damn it!!!]

The phrase "seizing the Luding Bridge" encapsulates this desperate situation.

[The enemy machine guns are all set up, how are we supposed to get past them?!]

Liu Chen's gaze shifted to the company commander and battalion commander in the ranks.

But seeing the despair in their eyes, I fell silent.

The crowd was silent.

With no other option, they could only wait for orders in place. Taking advantage of the early dawn before the enemy discovered them, they quickly hid and rested.

And the outside world.

On the Polestar website's preview page.

As Liu Chen's vanguard unit in the game arrived at Luding Bridge.

The CG for "Seizing Luding Bridge" has also been quietly lit up.

(That's all for today. Let's summarize the plot and try to move forward steadily.)
