Chapter 82 [The Battle of Songgu Peak (To be unlocked)] (3k)

As the orders were relayed from afar.

Shen Yan, Liu Feng, and the others felt their brains buzz as if they had exploded.

Wrong, all wrong.

When I first watched the CG, and during this period of training...

Everyone thought the key to the "Battle of Sansuoli" was the line at the end of the CG: "Take five minutes ahead of the enemy and capture Sansuoli!"

However, the meaning of the word "bloody battle" is beyond doubt.

The title says it all.

The troops, who had just experienced a battle in Tokugawa, immediately marched more than 70 kilometers of mountain roads through the night without stopping, and then had to start fighting again after less than five minutes of rest.

Shen Yan and his men thought that being able to reach this point meant they were the pinnacle of infantry in the Republic.

However, the Republic's most elite infantry has once again refreshed Shen Yan and others' understanding.

The main force quickly sprang into action.

Shen Yan's Special Battalion also ambushed the main force on the hillside.

Looking back.

The vanguard of the mechanized forces of the United States Free Federation was slowly moving along the main road, the tank turrets slowly rotating, and the machine gunners on them observing their surroundings.

The mechanized forces below are getting closer.

Shen Yan held his breath, his eyes fixed on the mechanized troops below, his gun pointed at the machine gunner on one of the tanks.

bang bang bang-

After a series of muffled mortar shots, a roar rang in everyone's ears:

"beat!!!"

The People's Volunteer Army soldiers and Shen Yan, who were lying in ambush, immediately opened fire on the American Free Federation soldiers below. The sudden attack threw the American Free Federation army into chaos.

However, it relies on the impenetrable fortress of tank armor.

A counterattack was quickly organized. Tanks turned their cannons toward the hillside and fired shells, which exploded into the sky, in conjunction with the suppressive fire of the tank machine guns.

The situation on the battlefield changed in an instant.

Shen Yan lay prone on one side, concentrating and calming himself.

boom--

One shot took out a tank machine gunner, but the cannon muzzle quickly turned around, and Shen Yan rolled backward.

boom! ! !
The shell blasted a large crater in the ground, but it did not harm Shen Yan.

Shen Yan quickly got up and directed his Special Battalion to start firing at the tank machine gunners below the canyon.

Having been tormented for so long by Simo Häyhä from "The White Death," the members of the 7th Special Forces Brigade are practically all sharpshooters.

They quickly took down one tank machine gunner after another, while the People's Volunteer Army organized squads of Molotov cocktails to throw at the tanks below.

The flames from the Molotov cocktails exploded on the American tanks, but they couldn't stop the tanks from advancing.

The mortars on the mountain kept bombarding the center of the canyon. After a long battle, the American tanks finally stopped in the middle of the canyon.

However, the American tanks following closely behind forcefully pushed aside the tanks in front, intending to charge straight through.

boom--!
boom--!
At this time.

Three soldiers from the People's Volunteer Army of the Republic suddenly leaped out, covered in flames.

Two people used entrenching tools to wedge the tank tracks, while a third person aimed a Molotov cocktail at the exhaust port and inserted it. In an instant, a towering wave of flames spread outwards.

As Molotov cocktails were thrown, along with reckless blasts of explosives, tank after tank began to explode.

The road through the canyon was successfully blocked.

Unwilling to give up, the vanguard of the US 9th Army continued to use tanks to ram the tanks piled up in front of the canyon, but as more and more tanks piled up, they could not be moved at all.

After several hours of fierce fighting, they were forced to retreat.

Gunpowder smoke filled the battlefield, tanks burned in the canyon below, the pungent smell filled the nostrils, and mutilated corpses were everywhere in sight.

Shen Yan watched the American mechanized troops slowly depart and then climbed up from behind his bunker.

After hours of fighting, with shells falling at close range, my ears were ringing and it took me a long time to recover. All I could do was shout:

"Liu Feng! Liu Feng!"

I called out several times, but there was no response.

Shen Yan felt his arm being tugged a few times, and turned around to look.

It was a soldier from the First Special Battalion who asked loudly:

"Where's your battalion commander?"

The soldiers of the Special Battalion pointed to the distance, where there were only densely packed shell craters and charred corpses lying all around.

Seeing this, Shen Yan felt a lump in his throat and turned to look.

One, two, thirty-seven.

The Special Battalion started with 300 men, but now only 17 remain.

But the battle is not over yet.

Seeing that they could not break through here, the vanguard of the US 9th Army partially turned west and advanced towards Longyuanli.

The battle had already begun there.

Without time to clean up the battlefield, Shen Yan, having received orders, led the remaining seventeen men, along with a contingent of the People's Volunteer Army, to Longyuanli without stopping.

The 337th Regiment of the 113th Division is located in Longyuanli.

They had been holding off the US armored forces in Longyuanli for several hours. Two hours later.

reality.

Daxia Federation, North.

Songol Glacier.

The 7th Special Operations Brigade, after waking up in the virtual reality pod.

Shen Yan summoned the men of the First Special Battalion to the conference room, along with the officers of the Special Operations Brigade.

In the battle at Longyuan, he and the remaining seventeen people ultimately failed to hold out until the end, and were taken away by bombers from the American Free Federation.

However, we have also gained some experience.

With everyone present, Shen Yan turned to the chief of staff and said:

"Old Qu, have you finished analyzing the photon supercomputing cluster?"

“Didn’t we say it was an impossible mission before? But this time, 67 of our people made it to the Third Institute.”

"This shows that we are capable of completing the mission."

"Leaving aside the subsequent battles, just considering the raid on Sansuoli, where are we inferior to the People's Volunteer Army in the Battle of Sansuoli?"

Chief of Staff Qu Guang nodded and said:

"The supercomputer compared the real-time data of the 113th Division provided by Zhao Ming. Their average heart rate was maintained above 160 for 14 hours, and they continued to march even when their blood oxygen saturation was as low as 82%."

"The activity level of their brainwave maps is 2.3 times that of ours, which means that if these data are from real people, then they were forcibly rewriting their physical limits with their consciousness during this run."

"We can't do that."

"Because we cannot embody the beliefs of the Republic's Volunteer Army in the Battle of San Suoli, if the background were changed to the Great Xia Federation, our soldiers' success rate would be somewhat higher."

Shen Yan pondered for a moment:
"Is it just a slight improvement?"

"The non-combat casualty rate is too high, nearly four-fifths."

Chief of Staff Qu Guang gave a wry smile:
No one can become fat in one bite.

"If we want to reach the standard of the People's Volunteer Army in the Battle of Sansuoli, we still need to undergo certain training."

"I don't know what the People's Volunteer Army in the Battle of Sansuoli went through to forge such a force."

"But this is the first time our brigade's soldiers have ever done such an intense forced march. They haven't trained at this intensity before, so many of them couldn't keep going."

"The calculations performed by the photon supercomputing cluster in the past were also performed while preserving maximum combat power, so the success rate was very low."

"However, our soldiers have better physical data."

"Therefore, as long as we hone our willpower, we can naturally reduce the proportion of non-combat casualties."

This is true.

Compared to the People's Volunteer Army, the soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Brigade were all in excellent physical condition, but it was precisely because of this that they couldn't persevere, which was shameful.

Physically, there's nothing wrong with him; his willpower is far inferior to others.

Shen Yan nodded and said:

"First, bring all the battalions in and have them walk through the entire area."

"After that, report the list of all the people who persisted to the Third Institute. The Battle of the Third Institute is not just about the Third Institute; there are also events in Longyuan and Songgu Peak later on."

talking.

Shen Yan pressed a button, and the projection on his wristwatch appeared.

A card and its description appeared.

[The 38th Army of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army (To be unlocked)]

[Title: Long Live Army, Pinnacle of Light Infantry]

[Introduction: The army's lineage began in Pingjiang in 1928; the core force of the field army that liberated the country through "three campaigns south of the Yangtze River and four battles at Siping"; the "Battle of Sansuoli" set a world record in the history of infantry marches.]

[Traditional Tactics: Flanking Maneuvers + Frontal Assault (To be Unlocked)]

[Note: Randomly assigned as an operations staff officer in the 38th Army, you can learn the Eastern Blitzkrieg tactics of flanking maneuvers combined with frontal assaults.]

[Inherited Skills: Snowfield Ambush, Night Raid, Close Combat (To be unlocked).]

[Note: During the Battle of Longyuanli, holding out for 24 hours will unlock the 'Light Infantry Peak' storyline, allowing you to learn skills such as snowfield infiltration and night raids from soldiers of the People's Volunteer Army.]

Key Battles: The Battle of Sansuoli and the Battle of Songgufeng

[Note: In the second campaign, following the 113th Division, complete a 145-mile forced march through the snow within 14 hours, break through enemy air blockade and terrain obstacles, seize the Sansuoli ambush point and hold it until the main force encircles you. Surviving for more than 48 hours will unlock the [Songgufeng Ambush].]

[Conditions for achieving this: 145/145 (distance traveled to three locations) 8/48 (hours of perseverance)]

Upon seeing the card's description, everyone gasped.

After the Battle of San Suo Li, there is the Battle of Long Yuan Li, and after that, there is the Battle of Song Gu Feng.
Shen Yan glanced at everyone and said:
"For the condition of rushing to the three institutes, we first screened out those who could persevere, and then formed teams to complete the second condition: stay in the three institutes for 48 hours."

"Unlock the Battle of Songgu Peak".

"Passing on tactics, passing on skills—let's do it one by one."

Snowfield infiltration and night raids are skills that the soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Brigade possess, but they are clearly not the same as those used in the "Bloody Battle of San Suoli".

Shen Yan was also very envious.

The fact that we cleared the "White Reaper" Simon Haye dungeon so many times significantly improved the overall stealth and shooting skills of the 7th Special Operations Brigade.

If you learn the snowfield infiltration, night raid, and other techniques described in the "Battle of Sansuoli" as the 'pinnacle of light infantry,' and hone your willpower by rushing to Sansuoli.

The guys under him are probably all going to turn into Simon Häyhä.

That picture.
