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

Chapter 241 [International Public Opinion, the Commonwealth's Fear of Defeat] (4k)

The scene on Shen Yan's side went completely dark.

Having withdrawn from World War II, the training pod opened, and Shen Yan sat up inside.

However, he still had a toothache expression on his face.

It's too cruel.

Call in artillery support to cover our positions.

This was something that had never happened before, so Shen Yan hadn't expected it either.

The image of the volunteer soldier yelling "Fire at me!" at the equipment kept echoing in Shen Yan's mind. He was completely convinced and got up from the training cabin.

Shen Yan glanced at the scene; Qu Guang had already left.

He then walked out of the training room.

The sentry standing guard at the gate rushed over.

After a while.

Inside the brigade headquarters.

Shen Yan walked into the room. Qu Guang was writing something on the projector. Shen Yan walked over and asked curiously:
"How come you got out here so quickly?"

Qu Guang looked over and said:
"He got shot in the head."

"That's absolutely outrageous."

"A few hundred meters away, he headshot me with a Mosin-Nagant without a scope."

Shen Yan's eyes widened:
"you sure?"

To know.

Let's calculate it as 400 meters.

A person 400 meters away is only the size of a grain of rice. To headshot an object the size of a grain of rice, it's easier if you have a scope to magnify it.

There is no sight.
hiss--

This is also why Shen Yan was shocked.

Qu Guang nodded and said:
"That was my expression too."

"I didn't believe it even when I saw it through the sniper scope."

"But it was almost instantaneous."

"The screen went black."

"Where are you?"

What kind of storyline starts with you?

Shen Yan came to his senses and then gave a wry smile:
"Don't mention it."

"The plot of the attack."

"But finally, under the fire of the US federal government, they stormed the Chinese People's Volunteer Army's position."

"The remaining volunteer soldiers called for artillery support to bombard their own positions."

"Who would have thought?"

There's no need to say more; Qu Guang already understood.

perish together.

Qu Guang thought for a moment and then said:
"Bring all the soldiers in for training tomorrow."

"This kind of sniper and cannon-like plot is a good opportunity to hone tracking skills."

Although they knew they might not be able to catch up with the volunteer army snipers.

After all, even Qu Guang himself only realized it when he was about to die, and then he was shot and taken away.

But under that kind of pressure.

The soldiers must have made rapid progress as well.

More importantly, this is random.

It can train soldiers to react quickly in different battlefield situations.

Shen Yan had no objections, and then spoke up:

"When do you plan to start the Battle of Shangganling?"

"Some of them should already be in training."

Shen Yan had been in meetings lately, and Qu Guang was handling all the affairs of the brigade. Upon hearing Shen Yan's words, Qu Guang spoke up:
"Let's train for a while on the sniper and cannon shooting scenarios first."

"There aren't any events going on lately, let's proceed in order."

Shen Yan nodded:
"Row."

"Let's do it your way."

a few days later.

TianSha Live Streaming Platform.

As the battles on the peninsula progressed, the first battlefields to begin included the Battle of Tieyuan.

In Yu Feng’s live broadcast room.

Yu Feng and Fang Ming teamed up and randomly arrived at the Volunteer Army's position.

As soon as you enter the live broadcast room.

There was only the roar of artillery fire, but no actual fighting.

The only scene shows Yu Feng and Fang Ming hiding in the trenches, covering their heads, resisting the impact of the explosion.

After nearly 20 minutes of bombardment.

Almost deafened by the shock, the two men immediately got up, picked up their rifles, and began firing at the charging U.S. federal soldiers and tanks.

The firefight lasted less than 10 minutes.

boom--! !

boom--! !

The two figures were plunged into darkness in the shell-covered position.

I was ejected from the battlefield and returned to the main interface.

Fang Ming's live stream chat was filled with comments mocking the two for their lack of stamina, while Fang Ming helplessly rubbed his face and let out a long sigh.

"Outrageous."

"That's outrageous."

"I've played World War II for so long, and I've never fought such an outrageous battle."

"Do U.S. federal taxpayers know that U.S. federal troops are causing such havoc?"

"Holy crap?"

"That little hill, only a few dozen meters high, was bombarded with artillery shells for 20 minutes?"

"This doesn't even include doing this on one position."

"In the past two days, I've been identified as a member of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army three times, and I've been killed by bombs every time."

"Difficult, extremely difficult."

Fang Ming sighed.

Compared to the exclusive storyline of the Great Xia Federation forces, the soldiers who were separated from their units felt heart-wrenching pain as they watched their comrades die one by one on the front lines.

Ordinary Blue Star players can only experience the game solo or in a team.

Therefore, one can only sense the difficulty of the Tieyuan blocking battle.

It's outrageous.

A group of Blue Star players discussed and researched for a long time, but they still couldn't figure out how to defend Tieyuan.

Now we have the answer.

Can you hold it?

Based on the current situation, there shouldn't be any problems.

It was just too tragic.

Yu Feng asked during the live stream:
"Are you coming or not?"

Fang Ming glanced at the time and said:
"not coming."

"I've been playing all day."

"My ears were about to be deafened."

Yu Feng smiled and said:

"You're just hallucinating."

In the game, I was almost deafened by the explosions, but that was just a virtual sensation; it disappeared when I exited the game.

Fang Ming shook his head, leaned back, and stretched.
"Let's rest for a while."

"I'm going to browse the forums."

Seeing this, Yu Feng didn't continue playing. He had been playing all afternoon and it was time for him to take a break.

However, Yu Feng returned to his own [Single-player Story] mode, starting to use his identity as the newspaper's protagonist to gather game information and skip story segments, trying to catch up with the timeline of the [Battle Against the US Federal Army].

Fortunately, although I didn't play the single-player story mode often and hardly went anywhere, the time difference was only about 20 days.

Yu Feng quickly gathered intelligence, and after standing still for a while, the "Switch" button appeared directly.

In less than two hours, the timeline had been caught up with the latest timeline in the [battlefield against the United States Federation], which is the ongoing Battle of Tieyuan.

at this time.

Yu Feng had also collected a stack of documents.

Among them was the current state of public opinion in the United States. After glancing at it a few times, Yu Feng smiled and waved the intelligence report in his hand at the live stream, saying:
"Bros."

"Things aren't calming down in the US either."

Seeing the many curious comments on the screen, Yu Feng flipped through the intelligence and said:

"Before the start of the Fifth Campaign."

"The domestic public opinion in the US federal government has been temporarily suppressed due to a series of counterattacks."

"But with the start of the Fifth Campaign..."

"The large-scale counter-offensive of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army exacerbated the casualties of the US federal soldiers."

"All major newspapers have begun to call for peace negotiations."

"After all, the cost of military victory is too high. The Fifth Campaign has only been going on for a few days, and more than 1 American soldiers have already died."

"And then there's the British Commonwealth."

"Just two days after the start of the Fifth Campaign, the 29th Brigade of the British Commonwealth was defeated and the elite Gloucester Regiment of the British Commonwealth was annihilated."

"Anti-war demonstrations have already taken place within the British Commonwealth."

"Even senior officials in the British Commonwealth are more inclined to negotiate."

"The Prime Ministers of the British Commonwealth and the French Commonwealth have submitted a ceasefire proposal to the United States, but there has been no response from Washington."

"Now it all depends on the Battle of Tieyuan."

"The importance of the Tieyuan blocking battle has been analyzed before."

"The current situation is that the US federal government still wants to hold on a little longer."

"If we break through Tieyuan, then it will be a victory for the United States, and we can ignore those dissenting voices."

"But if there is no breakthrough, then we have to consider the consequences."

"Because if we can't break through, it means we can't destroy the supply lines of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, which means this war of attrition will have to continue."

"Then we have to consider public opinion."

"After all, the current situation is that there is opposition both domestically and internationally."

"The key point is still in Tieyuan."

"If the Chinese People's Volunteer Army holds the line, the U.S. federal government will have no choice but to negotiate a ceasefire."

"Because we can't afford to wait any longer."

"Actually, ever since the Chinese People's Volunteer Army entered the war."

"The first three battles had already extinguished the war propaganda within the United States."

"From that time on, there has been discussion about whether or not to make peace."

"The US federal government leadership just wants to try again, but doesn't want to go too far."

"They replaced MacArthur, who was always threatening nuclear bombing, with Ridgway."

"Then the fourth campaign pushed back some of the enemy forces."

"But now, with the Chinese People's Volunteer Army launching a counterattack, public opinion in the United States is also becoming restless."

"It's okay to gain an advantage, but it's painful to lose even a little bit."

"They think about stopping the fight and resolving the issue as soon as they lose a little, without ever thinking about how domineering they were before."

As Yu Feng spoke, he looked at the intelligence report in his hand and suddenly laughed:

"Actually, it was the British Commonwealth and the French Commonwealth that couldn't hold on any longer."

"Who on Earth is most afraid of the United States losing right now?"

"It's not the Soviet Union as an opponent, nor the Republic as an opponent, but the British Commonwealth and the French Commonwealth as allies."

"Because if the United States loses the Fifth War."

"The Soviets will inevitably take drastic action and target the entire European continent."

"At that time, the British Commonwealth and the French Commonwealth will be powerless to resist."

"The European continent is flat and open, enough for the Soviet Federation to fight from east to west without any obstacles."

"And the only empire in Europe that could rival the Soviet Union has now been crippled, and it's not even allowed to have an army."

"Therefore, as long as the Soviet Union exists, the British Commonwealth and the French Commonwealth will have to rely on the United States Commonwealth."

"If the United States' aura is shattered, the Soviets will definitely take action."

"Therefore, the British Commonwealth and the French Commonwealth want the United States to start peace talks as soon as possible, because as long as it does not completely fail, the United States' aura will not be shattered."

"The Soviet Federation will not act rashly."

"Judging from the current situation, Tieyuan can be held, so now it depends on whether the countries continue to exert pressure to prompt the start of peace talks."

As Yu Feng explained the current situation, the Blue Star players in the live stream watched with great interest as they read the intelligence report in Yu Feng's hand.

the other side.

The training for the "Cold Gun and Cold Cannon" scenario has been going on for several days now.

Basically, every soldier of the Great Xia Federation has experienced various forms of torture, such as being shot in the head by volunteer snipers, being killed in hand-to-hand combat, or even dying together with the position.

The soldiers of the Great Xia Federation were suffering terribly.

Some were so confident that they wanted to compete with the snipers of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army in sniping skills, but without exception, they were all killed instead.

Especially when some soldiers of the Great Xia Federation saw the situation on the other side through their sniper scopes.

The Chinese People's Volunteer Army snipers, without sights, once again reaped a wave of shock.

at this time.

With training nearly complete, the 7th Special Operations Brigade of the Great Xia Federation began organizing its soldiers to enter the Battle of Shangganling.

In the training room.

The soldiers of the First and Second Special Battalions had already lay down in the training pods, where Shen Yan and Qu Guang were explaining things:

"This Battle of Shangganling is different from the previous training."

"Previously, the training only covered the storyline of [Hu Xiudao], but this time it's the entire Battle of Shangganling."

"According to what Polaris said."

"The difficulty of the battle is extraordinary, even surpassing previous battles. It may even require a gamble. Once inside, the battle location will be randomly assigned."

"Let's get everything ready."

After Shen Yan finished speaking, the soldiers of Special Battalion 1 and Special Battalion 2 lay down in the training pods to begin.

Qu Guang and Shen Yan also lay down inside.

In the past few days, they have been chatting with some military academy comrades in the group about this battle, and without exception, they all said it was extremely difficult.

I haven't experienced it myself yet.

As Qu Guang and Shen Yan lay down in the training pod, Shen Yan entered the key to start the game.

The scene before my eyes flashed by.

He suddenly appeared on the battlefield within the storyline.

Shen Yan looked around and saw only a few soldiers from the 1st Company of the 1st Special Battalion nearby.

boom--!
Shells fell.

Shen Yan and several other soldiers from the Great Xia Federation crouched down in the trench, just like the other volunteer soldiers, waiting for the shelling to end.

Because the US federal government would never just bombard it once.

What Shen Yan didn't expect was that this bombardment would last a bit longer!
30 minute 50 minutes 70 minutes
Shen Yan felt as if his internal organs had shifted, but the shells whistling down from the sky never stopped. Based on his experience, Shen Yan calculated that the shell density was more than 6 shells per second.

More than that.

On the 'real-time map' in front of us, the area of ​​this part of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army's position is a little over 3 square kilometers.

But there were planes overhead.

They have flown at least 300 aircraft and dropped countless bombs.

Every breath felt like being in a scorching hell, with the pungent smell of gunpowder and waves of heat filling the nostrils.

I heard it would be difficult before it started.

However, this level of difficulty also shocked Shen Yan and the soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Brigade.

It's practically free!

It was only the first day of the Battle of Shangganling, and the US federal government was already bombing it. I can't imagine how difficult things will be later, especially since Shen Yan's position is still a defensive position.

Shen Yan estimated that all these positions combined would be bombarded in this way.

The US federal government fires at least 30 artillery shells a day, and the number of aircraft sorties is at least 3000.
