Three Hundred and Ninety-One, that Copper Bell

Zhou Yinglong confirmed repeatedly on the phone before he believed that Guan Shan had really been shot down.

The original plan of the Qianfeng Battalion was to let the Sharp Knife Company go to fight some Dingyuan Mountain bandits first, and then the Sharp Knife Company would turn around and join the Er Company to fight the more difficult Guanshan Mountain.

As a result, not long after the sharp knife company set off, Guan Shan was gone...

Zhang Xiaoman asked on the phone: "Battalion Commander, is this also our credit?"

"Do the math," Zhou Yinglong responded, "How about the casualties of your sharp knife company? If the casualties are relatively large, you can rest for a while and wait for support."

"There were no casualties," Zhang Xiaoman felt a bit of a toothache when he spoke, and he no longer kept it a secret: "There are only more than a hundred bandits on this Guanshan Mountain, and Ren Xiaosu went up and beat them down alone, don't say you scared them Jump, I was also taken aback, our previous plan was to let him restrain the bandits in Guanshan, but as a result of this restraint, the bandits in Guanshan were restrained..."

Then Zhang Xiaoman could hear Zhou Yinglong gasping for air on the phone of the communication station: "So fierce?!"

At this time, Ren Xiaosu wiped off the blood on his body by a stream behind Guanshan, and put on the battle uniform of the Sharp Knife Company again.

Not far away, Jiao Xiaochen and others who were collecting ammunition and supplies looked at Ren Xiaosu's appearance: "Did you see that killing more than a hundred people is like being okay, it's too peaceful."

"I don't know what he was doing before he came to Fortress 178..."

"I've heard people say that he was also a refugee before, that he was a student of Commander Zhang, and that he was a well-known ruthless person in the market town, as Old Xu said."

Ren Xiaosu put on a clean military uniform with sharp knives and stood by the creek. This was just the beginning of revenge, and he would fight more battles in the future.

At this time, Zhang Xiaoman had already reported to Zhou Yinglong, he asked Jiao Xiaochen: "Take an inventory of the harvest."

"Two 12.7mm heavy machine guns, with shields and wheels, 31 boxes of ammunition, and two mortars," Jiao Xiaochen reported. "There are many other automatic rifles, but they are useless to us."

The more guns the better, they have to be used by someone, so automatic rifles are not much different from scrap iron to them.

"Mortars and mortar shells, heavy machine guns without shields and wheels, and heavy machine gun bullets," Zhang Xiaoman said: "Machine gun shields are more useful on the plains. It’s inconvenient to move around with this thing, no, don’t you have grenades?”

Jiao Xiaochen shook his head: "No,

Not a single grenade was found. "

"This group of Guanshan bandits are too poor, they can't even afford grenades?" Zhang Xiaoman asked doubtfully.

It's not that the bandits in Guanshan are poor, but that Ren Xiaosu put all seven boxes of grenades into his space before going down the mountain.

Before Burst Poker had no bombs with numbers above 6, Ren Xiaosu felt that grenades could be used instead. As for the power of bombs with numbers above 6, he himself could not estimate.

Zhang Xiaoman's eyes glowed as he looked at a pile of ordnance, even the sharp knives were equipped in general, without heavy firepower.

So what you can grab on the battlefield depends entirely on your own ability.

At this time, Jiao Xiaochen was carrying a machine gun: "This thing belongs to me!"

As soon as the words fell, Jiao Xiaochen let go of his hand, and the machine gun had already reached Ren Xiaosu's hand. Jiao Xiaochen was stunned for a while, only to hear Ren Xiaosu say: "Squad leader, let me hold it for you."

Jiao Xiaochen was moved, able to fight and united and friendly, what kind of fairy comrades are he!

"Thank you, Ren Xiaosu," Jiao Xiaochen said.

"Thanks from Jiao Xiaochen, +1!"

Ren Xiaosu suddenly discovered that in Fort 178, thank you coins are quite easy to collect.

Seeing that his task is almost completed now, Ren Xiaosu thought, can he continue to earn thank you coins after completing the task?

"Company Commander," Ren Xiaosu looked at Zhang Xiaoman: "What shall we do next?"

"Siege of Dingyuan Mountain," Zhang Xiaoman replied, "The Vanguard Battalion and Engineer Battalion are about to reach the north of us. They want to establish an advance base there. At this time, the bandits in the rear cannot be allowed to make trouble."

"Is the advance base important?" Ren Xiaosu asked. He didn't question it, but asked humbly: "What is the function of the advance base?"

In Ren Xiaosu's impression, the advance base is a place where you can eat...

Zhang Xiaoman patiently explained: "Using the forward base can greatly reduce the time spent by the army on the way from the rear to the forward position, and can extend the supply line to a place close enough to the enemy's stronghold. For example, before the armored brigade continues to complete the deep route, Must be resupplied at forward base."

Ren Xiaosu nodded, expressing that he understood: "Then how to fight Dingyuan Mountain?"

"Battle Commander Zhou said that there is no need to attack by force, as long as they are besieged on Dingyuan Mountain and cannot move," Zhang Xiaoman said: "After the battle of Guanshan, the plan has changed, so our task is not too difficult. Reduce casualties. After the forward base is built, new troops will come to provide fire support, and it will be much easier at that time."

That night, everyone was resting on Guanshan Mountain for a short time. When the comrades took off their shoes and sat by the campfire to warm up, Ren Xiaosu walked away silently.

Looking at Ren Xiaosu's lonely figure standing on the edge of the cliff, Zhang Xiaoman suddenly said to the other soldiers, "I always feel that he has something on his mind."

"Company commander, it's just that our feet stink..."

Zhang Xiaoman scolded with a smile: "Don't you think he is very worried?"

"is a bit."

Zhang Xiaoman looked back at Ren Xiaosu's back, he always felt that Ren Xiaosu had experienced much more than they imagined.

He walked up to Ren Xiaosu with a freshly warmed vegetable soup: "Here, let's eat something."

"Well, thank you, company commander," Ren Xiaosu said.

As a result, Zhang Xiaoman did not leave after delivering the soup, but suddenly asked: "I heard that you have just arrived in Fort 178, why did you choose to come to Fort 178, which is such a miserable place?"

Ren Xiaosu glanced at Zhang Xiaoman: "I didn't plan to go, but because I have important things to do, I have common interests with Fort 178."

"I see," Zhang Xiaoman nodded and said.

"Company commander, why do you want to serve as soldiers in Fort 178?" Ren Xiaosu asked.

"I was born in Fortress 178 since I was a child," Zhang Xiaoman said with a smile, "When the young people in the fortress are over 16 years old, the first thing they do is to go for a medical examination to see if they are qualified to be a soldier. At that time, I almost hanged myself because of my flat feet.”

"Why?" Ren Xiaosu asked in surprise.

Zhang Xiaoman looked northwest, as if he could see Fort 178, he said with a smile: "In order to have a chance to prove that I am a man when the bronze bell in the center of the fort rings."
