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

Chapter 238 [Encirclement and Annihilation in Xue Mali? 1 Encirclement of 63?] (4.3k)

The positions where the initial contact with the United States Federation was made were disappearing one by one from the 'real-time map' in the eyes of the soldiers of the Great Xia Federation on Blue Star.

Perhaps you don't feel it when you're far away, but as the vast color of the United States on the map gradually approaches...

And after they swallowed up the positions of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army one by one.

These warriors of the Great Xia Federation finally understood what the Great Xia Federation soldiers in front of them had gone through.

That was a fierce battle that abruptly ended; those green dots representing life on the map, silently extinguished and then swallowed up by swathes of black.

That was the pain of watching one's comrades die before one's eyes, yet being unable to move.

It was a torture that stretched out the time, every second stained with the roars of comrades at the front and the flying blood.

What was even more painful was the situation on the command post at the center.

Qu Guang and Shen Yan looked ashen-faced as they watched the battle in the distance through binoculars.

The map next to it was covered with a dense array of markers.

Those were battlegrounds.

Each marker represented a position, and as the US federal forces advanced, one position after another was marked with an X on the map.

The sound of artillery fire could be heard in the distance.

The earth trembled with each hammer blow, until the artillery fire ceased.

The soldier next to the map laboriously drew an X at the spot he had just marked:

"Position No. 7"

Didn't go on.

But everyone knows what happened.

A combat team of 30 people.

Qu Guang even saw through his binoculars the makeshift trenches that were being mercilessly crushed by US federal tanks as they blocked the US federal mechanized armored forces.

Amidst the raging flames, scattered limbs and tank parts were found.

Qu Guang and Shen Yan, officers and soldiers of the Blue Star Great Xia Federation experiencing the storyline, watched their comrades fall one by one while they could only watch, their hearts breaking.

At this moment, I finally understood what Zhao Ming meant by tempering one's will.

Such rigorous training.

It truly breaks my heart.

Compared to them.

The volunteers suffered even more.

Because we can neither retreat nor advance.

They could only stay where they were, watching their comrades sacrifice one by one, waiting for the arrival of the main force of the US federal army, and then giving them a head-on blow, even if it was like moths flying into a flame, or like eggs hitting rocks.

But they had to do it.

If we cannot hold out for these three days, the main force in the rear will not have enough time to build defensive fortifications, and Tieyuan, this crucial logistical hub, will fall.

Once Tieyuan falls, the Chinese People's Volunteer Army at the front will be in dire straits. With ammunition exhausted and food supplies cut off, they will have no choice but to retreat north of the Yalu River.

The flames of war will once again reach the borders of the Republic.

The republic that had just stood up after more than forty years of war would be forcibly pushed back into the quagmire.

This terrified them more than death.

That is why, even knowing that death was imminent, no one backed down.

The sky over Tieyuan stretches from sunrise to sunset.

The blood-red sunset on the horizon seemed to be telling a story of what was happening here.

They fought from day to night.

The artillery fire and flares at night illuminated the entire land as if it were daytime.

Every time the artillery fire stopped and then restarted, 30 lives were lost, and one by one the positions on the 'real-time map' were extinguished.

More than 30 positions were lost by the Chinese People's Volunteer Army.

Even within just one day.

The main force of the US federal government unleashed 4500 tons of artillery shells on the positions of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army.

But it didn't work.

The marching speed of the US federal forces was greatly delayed.

now.

The soldiers who experienced it finally understood how the Chinese People's Volunteer Army created 'miracles'.

This is not a contest between steel and flesh.

It was not a contest of wills.

The US federal government thought it was destroying positions one by one, but it was completely unaware that the Chinese People's Volunteer Army had already carved the words "No Retreat" into every inch of scorched earth.

Even if only a broken body remains, a defensive line must be built.

The standard of victory is no longer how many high grounds are captured, but who can hold out until the very last moment.

This is a test of will.

At this time, troops are being deployed throughout the Great Xia Federation.

the other side.

While experiencing the 'Iron Plains Blockade Battle' ahead of time on the Great Xia Federation side.

For the players on Earth outside, the fastest progress was finally on April 22nd, the day the fifth battle began.

In Yu Feng’s live broadcast room.

at this time.

Yu Feng was following the team, watching the Imjin River flow by under the shade of a tree.

This is a high ground on the south bank of the Imjin River.

From here, you can see the winding and turbulent river, and you can also keep an eye on the movements on the opposite bank.

It's not visible to the naked eye.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken a break under the shade of the trees during their patrol. Although they couldn't see anything with the naked eye, Yu Feng's 'real-time map' showed a large area of ​​Chinese People's Volunteer Army troops on the other side.

Bang!Bang!
A muffled sound came from afar.

The people under the shade of the tree did not pay any attention.

Since the Chinese People's Volunteer Army adopted a strategy of gradual resistance during their retreat, these occasional shelling and firefights became the norm. The sounds were heard from a great distance, so no one was worried.

Yu Feng looked at the 'real-time map' and then looked up at the opposite bank.

It was already close to dusk.

Meanwhile, the opposing team on the 'real-time map' is moving rapidly, clearly preparing to attack.

However, the US federal government here is completely unaware of this.

next to.

Squad leader Wilson, who was leading the team, was smoking a cigarette.
"I heard that the troops from the Republic are gathering in the rear."

"I don't know how many people there are."

The scout Thompson standing nearby spoke up:

"Those intelligence agencies are never reliable."

"Damn it."

"Last month they said there was only one company of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army guarding that area."

"As a result, they almost managed to break through with an entire regiment."

Squad leader Wilson shrugged and said with a smile:

"Those guys deserve a good kick in the ass."

After saying that, he shook his head, looked at the surface of the Imjin River, and asked with some curiosity:

"This river must be at least a hundred meters wide, right?"

"A few firing positions are perfect places to commit massacres."

"How did those puppet troops from the south lose this place in just over 10 minutes?"

"Could it be that they dropped their gun and ran away without even seeing him?"

"Could they really be a bunch of pigs?"

I didn't know that before, but now that I've arrived at the Imjin River.

I saw the terrain and landforms here with my own eyes.

Many U.S. soldiers found it hard to understand how the puppet troops to the south could have lost such a treacherous place in just over 10 minutes.
The scout Thompson standing nearby also shook his head:

"Who knows, them?"

"and many more!"

"Is something moving over there?!"

Thompson, who was speaking, suddenly narrowed his eyes and pointed to a certain spot on the opposite bank.

There really seemed to be something moving in the woods on the opposite bank.

"Something's not right. This doesn't seem like a small group of enemies."

Bang!
A muffled sound!
Then came a series of muffled thuds, and the whistling of shells echoed above the crowd.

Boom boom boom boom——

It landed on the US federal position on this side of the Imjin River.

"What the hell!"

"Are they crazy?"

"They really fought back?"

I thought it was fake intelligence, but it turned out to be true. Those guys actually amassed a large force and fought back.

Looking across the Imjin River, large numbers of Chinese People's Volunteer Army soldiers emerged from the woods and, under the cover of artillery fire, quickly organized a river crossing.

The US federal base here also organized a counterattack immediately.

The group quickly ran towards the camp.

Yu Feng was running at the back, broadcasting the battle live.

On the 'real-time map' in the live stream room.

The tactics of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army can be clearly seen.

Originally gathered together in a large area of ​​color, they now spread out like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, splitting into countless small teams rushing towards the Imjin River.

In the live stream, many netizens on Earth were astonished:
[Wow—, you can cross a river like that?]

[6666, that's amazing! It perfectly solves the problem of the overwhelming firepower of the US federal government.]

[That's amazing! You can do that?!]

The U.S. federal forces are going to be in a real bind.

Discussions and comments floated through the live stream chat.

Yu Feng was live-streaming the situation on the river, and indeed, as the comments said, the US federal government was in a real mess.

This area is defended by Commonwealth and US forces.

There are some issues with coordination and cooperation.

Meanwhile, the Chinese People's Volunteer Army on the opposite bank of the Imjin River appeared chaotic and full of weaknesses, but upon closer inspection, it became clear that all the squads had only one objective.

Crossing the river.

There are many US federal strongholds and heavy weapons on the Imjin River side.

But
The river-crossing squad on the other side had several times more firepower than the US federal forces on the other side.

The machine gun swept across a small team of Chinese People's Volunteer Army soldiers crossing the river.

The other river-crossing teams around them had already rushed into the icy river water, managing to conquer one area, but not all of them.

The Imjin River is about 100 meters wide and waist-deep, with a rapid current. Under normal circumstances, it can only be crossed by boat, and only in some areas can infantry forcibly cross the river.

This is it.

The entire river surface was almost entirely filled with Chinese People's Volunteer Army soldiers who were crossing the Imjin River.

In addition, they also had fire support.

Soon, a group of volunteer soldiers crossed the Imjin River, which was about 100 meters wide, and without stopping for a moment, they quickly launched a battle to seize the river bridge.

The fierce battle lasted for nearly an hour.

The battle ended with the Chinese People's Volunteer Army seizing the river bridge and erecting a pontoon bridge, allowing more and more soldiers to cross the river.

The U.S. federal troops began to withdraw and reduce their forces.

In Yu Feng’s live broadcast room.

The surrounding U.S. federal soldiers, many of them, looked dazed, their expressions bordering on absurd.

Among them was Wilson, the former class monitor.

Just an hour ago, I was complaining that those puppet troops to the south lost their position in just over 10 minutes while holding such a strategic location. They were simply idiots.

As a result, the U.S. federal troops, now with even greater firepower, held out for only an hour before being forced to retreat due to the large-scale crossing of the Yangtze River by the Chinese People's Volunteer Army.

No one can accept this fact.

How did the war turn out like this?

In fact, it's not just here.

The Chinese People's Volunteer Army launched a full-scale offensive. Returning to the main interface of the Tiansha live streaming platform, you can see that almost all the live streaming rooms are engaged in battle.

Such a battle situation meant that many players on Earth were destined to have a sleepless night.

The next day.

early morning.

In Yu Feng’s live broadcast room.

The swaying truck finally stopped, and the evacuating US federal troops arrived at the rear defense line.

Two days of fighting, a full-scale counterattack.

The US federal government was caught off guard.

Unable to mount an effective counterattack.

soon.

The US federal government then issued a defense order.

The tactics of the two sides were almost completely reversed.

General Ridgway, the U.S. federal commander-in-chief, ordered the U.S. federal forces on the western front to use their mechanized advantages to launch a counterattack in an echelon formation.

After this order was given, the defenses did indeed become more solid.

After all, the tiered defensive lines of fully mechanized troops are much harder to breach than positions composed of infantry.

Yu Feng was watching the battle lines and explaining to the Blue Star viewers in the live stream, while also browsing the official Polar Star forum to see what was happening in other places.

Although some things can be analyzed from the battle lines.

But more often than not, the news breaks faster on forums.

However, some issues were discovered.

For example, after adjusting his defenses, Ridgway deliberately exposed weaknesses in some of the puppet army's defenses on the southern part of the eastern front, in an attempt to lure the Chinese People's Volunteer Army deeper into the territory.

this.
The netizens on Blue Star in the live broadcast room watched the post revealing the information with Yu Feng.

His expression turned strange.

Is there no work left at the US federal level?

Although the fourth campaign pushed back.

But up until now.

This is the fifth campaign, and Ridgway's side is still using the same few tactics over and over again.

The only change was that the 'magnetic tactic' was expanded from an initial 20 kilometers to a 30-kilometer retreat distance.

Everything else remains largely unchanged.

Overall, the main focus is still on firepower coverage.

At this time.

A post suddenly went viral and was pinned to the top of the forum.

[Outrageous!!!]

The title has only two words, and the rest are exclamation marks.

Yu Feng clicked on it.

It was a post by a player, containing only one sentence and a video.

[It's hard to explain, just watch it first!!!]

Yu Feng and the viewers in the live stream became curious after seeing the title and the words, and then clicked on the video.

The scene that came into view made Yu Feng's eyes widen:
"What the hell?!"

The video recording started abruptly amidst shock.

So viewers didn't know the cause and effect, but the first second of the video shocked the viewers.

Boom——!
A deafening sound came from the video, showing the chaotic scene of the explosion involving British Commonwealth troops.

In the video, a Chinese People's Volunteer Army soldier, taking advantage of the chaos caused by the explosion, charged alone towards nearly a hundred British Commonwealth troops and suppressed them with a submachine gun.

He also waved his arms, making it appear as if he were commanding a large force.

The British Commonwealth soldiers, already in a sorry state from being pursued by the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, assumed they had encountered a large force of the Volunteer Army when they saw the soldier acting this way.

One by one, they laid down their weapons and surrendered with their hands raised.

The player who filmed the video was completely dumbfounded by what they saw.

The live stream chat was filled with comments:
Holy crap? This is way too fake!

[It seems like they're throwing even faster than France.]

[Commonwealth Forces: Oh no, we're surrounded by a man!]

[One person captured dozens of people?!]

The viewers in the live stream were dumbfounded; the plot was just too outrageous.

Scroll down on Yu Feng's page; there's also a description below the video:
"Bros."

"This scene takes place in Xue Mali. The brave volunteer soldier who captured 63 people was named Liu Guangzi. I recorded this part in a hurry, so the first half is incomplete."

"Nobody expected him to be so fierce."

"If you have any recordings, please upload them!"

It's a pity that the player who posted this didn't record the beginning, so they posted this in the hope that someone could find a complete view.

After all, the 'Battle of Xue Mali' on the front lines has ended.

However, some of the battlefields that opened later were only just beginning their 'Fifth Campaign,' while others were still in their 'Fourth Campaign,' and there were so many players.

You should be able to find the full video of the snow mongoose.

This player's video also drew the attention of Blue Star players to the live streams set up in Snowy Mali.

The troops stationed here are the 29th Brigade of the British Commonwealth, and also the elite Gloucester Regiment of the British Commonwealth ("Royal Army Double Badge Regiment").

Elite troops?

hiss--

Elite units of general joint forces rarely fared well when they encountered the Chinese People's Volunteer Army.
