We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

In a corner out of the bear's sight, Pete, an elite American sniper lying prone on a tank, had already locked onto the bear without anyone noticing.

After several battles, the bears, being too conspicuous on the battlefield and using close-range anti-tank grenades to destroy multiple tanks, have become formidable.

You should know that ordinary new army soldiers, in order to ensure a sufficient hit rate, all aim to become members of the suicide squad.

Bears, on the other hand, are completely different. With their superior strength, they can accurately hit their targets from a trench dozens of meters away.

Therefore, the bear was, without exception, placed on America's wanted list.

However, as time ticked by, and even after the bear threw out its second anti-tank grenade, Pete still didn't pull the trigger.

And even the sniper rifle in his hand, which had been as steady as a rock, began to tremble slightly at this moment.

It was as if they had witnessed a scene that was simply unbelievable.

Pete was 100% certain that there was nothing wrong with his eyes; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to achieve the feat of killing a hundred people in this battle.

There absolutely cannot be a problem.

"Pete, fuck you! What the hell are you dawdling for? Why haven't you fired yet?" Hines' hysterical roar suddenly came through the earpiece, as if he wanted to deafen Pete.

Hines was actually not far from Hines, but because he was afraid of dying, he hid himself in the torrent of steel.

Of course, apart from China's new army and the Russian army, almost no other country's commanders would take the lead and rush to the front line of battle.

In fact, according to common sense, it was only a matter of time before America won this battle, because many past facts have proven that all so-called hymns of human courage turn into painful wails in the face of artillery.

However, in this Korean War, America's seemingly invincible army was held back for so long by an army whose ammunition levels were still at the level of World War I.

They suffered repeated defeats.

There were even rumors within America's army that the opposing Chinese New Army had received God's blessing and was aided by God's legacy.

This was a statement that Hines could not accept. Looking at the second broken-down steel behemoth, his already irritable mood, which had been blocked for two days and two nights, became even more depressed and irritable.

"If you don't fire, I'll have you court-martialed!" Enraged, Hines gave Pete a death order, continuing:

"Even if you miss, you'd better restrict his movements, or we'll see you in a military court!"

At the same time, he directly commanded several tanks nearby to prepare to surround and kill the bear. Even if it meant shelling his own troops, it would be completely worth it as long as they could defeat that cunning rat.

Many tank crew members were initially bewildered by this almost insane order, but upon hearing Hines' furious voice, all other thoughts vanished in an instant.

A soldier's duty is to obey orders.

Moreover, the importance of this battle is known even to a mere soldier in America's army. As long as the logistics of the Chinese New Army can be destroyed, the outcome of the battle can be decided in one fell swoop.

This also means they can go home for Christmas.

Although this was a promise made by five-star general MacArthur a long time ago, as time has passed, the words have become a joke, but for most soldiers, they have long become an obsession.

A single, unwavering belief sustained them as they fought against that group of fearless "devils."

buzz~
The heavy cannons on the steel behemoth began to rotate, albeit slowly. Even an armored vehicle only had one chance to make a mistake before those man-eating cannons.

What's more, it's a human being?
If they manage to hit the target even once out of dozens of shots, the enemy will be utterly destroyed. These tank crews have plenty of confidence in the steel behemoths they are driving.

After all, this is currently the most powerful mechanized army on Earth, bar none.

when!
Like a resounding bell suddenly exploding in his mind, the moment Pete heard the news of the military court, he instantly snapped out of his daze.

After rubbing his eyes and cursing under his breath, he roughly calculated the bullet's drop distance using the crosshairs in the optical sight based on the distance and wind speed, and then aimed at the massive bear.

The entire process was extremely smooth and took only a few seconds.

As expected of an elite marksman selected from America's army and trained with tens of thousands of bullets.

……

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

With a violent burst of air, even with its indestructible humanoid shield, the bear had to slow down.

He weaved through a hail of bullets, bullets occasionally striking the humanoid shield, their kinetic energy completely dissipating due to some inexplicable force.

But suddenly.

Suddenly, the bear felt a tightness and swelling in his forehead, as if it had been pierced by a sharp weapon. He was terrified and followed his instincts, dodging at high speed.

"Hey!"

With a soft sound, the bear suddenly felt a burning sensation in his temple. A terrifying gust of air grazed past his ear, leaving a charred mark. His burnt hair emitted a burnt smell.

boom!
The next moment, the bear, like a black bear, suddenly charged into a trench that had not yet been leveled.

"Damn it, it's that guy again! He's like a persistent ghost..."

At this moment, the bear's eyes were as sharp as swords. He crouched down and stared coldly along the edge of the trench towards a mirror, while his heart pounded violently.

Although he didn't know who the other person was, the identical shooting technique and the familiar feeling told him that it must be his old rival.

This can be considered a talent that the bear acquired by spending many years in the mountains and forests. It is also one of his trump cards that enabled him to charge into battle and become the vanguard of the new army.

Wild animal senses.

Just a moment ago, the bear was sniped by a sharpshooter, and the timing and location were perfect. If it weren't for his animal senses, which allowed him to move into the trench beforehand, and the presence of the humanoid shield in front of him, he would have been much better off.

So it's not just a matter of being grazed.

Instead, it pierced directly through his skull.

“Boom! Boom! Boom—!”

The constant roar of artillery fire echoed in the bear's ears, and coupled with the deafening roar of the steel behemoth's engine, his heart began to pound faster and faster.

This is a disaster!

This was the bear's first thought. His original plan was to destroy one or two tanks and then stop, but after experiencing the convenience of the shield in his hand, he inadvertently got carried away.

Of course, the bear knew this was also his flaw—that he wasn't meticulous enough—but he couldn't change it.

If things could be changed, he would be more than just a bodyguard now.

The bear paused for a moment, and after its heart rate had decreased slightly, it began to move again. But before it could charge again, several more cold bullets were fired.

After several attempts, there were still no results, and the trenches disappeared in the distance.

It is a real plain.

If they charged straight onto the plains, with so many steel behemoths and America's shrewd archer lurking in the shadows, it would be tantamount to suicide. "Luckily, you're here." The bear glanced silently at the unfamiliar human in its hands, a sense of relief washing over it.

Fortunately, on a whim, he subconsciously brought it along to the battlefield.

They would probably be dead by now.

If it weren't for the human-shaped shield in his hand, those bullets probably wouldn't have just grazed him, but would have directly caused wounds that would have affected his movement.

It could even pierce through the skull.

While animal perception is important, it is not 100% accurate.

"In your Chinese terms, this is what you'd call a cornered beast's struggle." Hines raised his binoculars, brought them close to his eyes, and looked at the bear that had stopped moving in the distance. A smug smile appeared on his lips.

If you ask why, after using so much firepower, they haven't annihilated the enemy, and why they can still show a smug smile.

the reason is simple.

Because of the contrast with a bunch of incompetent teammates.

The steel behemoths forced to stop by the bears are not just the two tanks we have now; as of now, there are at least eight tanks.

Three of them were even scrapped.

Then, Hines continued to give orders to sniper Pete and several tank crewmen around him to continue tightening the encirclement.

If possible, he also wanted to capture the other party alive to see who he was, whether he had three heads and six arms, and whether he was so capable.

Of course, after the interrogation, they can be sent to the rear.

In addition to being America's current officer, Hines also has several human laboratories under his command, conducting some kind of shady research.

He had an extremely high interest in these special humans with "superpowers".

Moreover, this was a perfectly legitimate act. As long as the report to superiors stated that the other party refused to comply and ultimately chose to bite off his tongue and commit suicide, the superiors would not pursue the matter further.

After all, among the new army of China, such stubborn people who were determined to resist to the death were, if not the majority, then countless.

……

"Cover! Cover fire!" Zhang Weishan became increasingly anxious as he saw the bear being driven to the brink of despair, and shouted loudly.

The scholar, the skinny monkey, and others raised their guns and fired, with the silent man hitting his target every time.

But this was of no use to the bear, who was already cornered; he was far too close to America's army.

And this distance is constantly closing as time goes by.

And what about the weapons they possess?
Besides rifles and submachine guns, there are machine guns. Although the latter are like harvesting wheat when facing ordinary infantry, machine guns are different when facing tanks.

It's like an ant facing an elephant; it doesn't even have the chance to break through.

Let alone trying to stop the other side from attacking the bear.

"Calm down, calm down, Battalion Commander, you must calm down..." The scholar saw Zhang Weishan's teeth clenched and immediately guessed that the other party was about to lose his temper again, so he grabbed him.

Zhang Weishan had done this kind of thing before, acting out of anger for his brothers.

Towards the end of the war against Japanese pirates, in order to persuade a mountain stronghold leader to surrender, Zhang Weishan's troops paid a heavy price in persuasion and offered many conditions within the rules.

However, to their surprise, the other side showed no martial ethics and directly killed one of the new soldiers.

A sixteen-year-old boy who had just joined.

Enraged, Zhang Weishan led a small force to massacre Black Wind Stronghold. Although he left the enemy with intact corpses, the incident still infuriated his superiors.

If it weren't for someone protecting him, and the fact that Black Wind Stronghold's actions had angered many soldiers, Zhang Weishan's situation would likely have been far more serious than simply feeding the horses.

This is not even the biggest "black mark" in Zhang Weishan's resume.

However, even though he had become a qualified veteran, how could a scholar like him possibly hold back Zhang Weishan, who had been through countless battles?

"Silent fellow, aren't you going to help?" The scholar quickly looked at the silent fellow beside him. As for the skinny monkey, he had no expectation that the other party could help.

It's not that Skinny Monkey liked watching the excitement, but rather that he was truly a qualified soldier.

Subconsciously obeying orders from superiors.

This habit, while not necessarily a flaw, was a weakness for the new army. What they needed were thoughtful people, not just weapons.

"Calm down? How do you expect me to calm down!" Zhang Weishan turned his head, his eyes meeting the scholar's. The constant roar of artillery fire filled his ears, and his eyes were bloodshot.

All of a sudden.

The scholar and the taciturn man were speechless, but a determined light shone in the scholar's eyes. No matter what, Zhang Weishan could not lose his composure.

however.

call out!call out!call out!
As a sharp explosion resounded through the sky, in a corner unnoticed by Zhang Weishan and the others, several dark cannon barrels had already located the hiding place of the bear.

The shells were fired without hesitation.

Almost at the same moment the shell was fired, the bear suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He sensed danger, extreme danger, danger that could threaten his life.

At this moment, he had long since become a caged beast.

Subsequently.

without hesitation.

"sorry."

The bear lay prone in the trench, then covered himself with the human-shaped shield in his hand, silently praying that the shield's effectiveness would once again exceed his expectations.

next moment.

The target area was engulfed in a blinding flash of light, explosions rang out one after another, and dust and smoke mingled into a chaotic mass, completely shrouding the area.

The shockwave created layers of air currents, uprooting the surrounding vegetation and causing the ground to tremble as if struck by a giant hammer.

"What a pity." Hines sighed almost imperceptibly as he looked at the scene in the distance through his binoculars.

In the end, he changed his mind because his superiors were urging him to break through the new army's defenses as soon as possible so he could go home for Christmas.

however.

"Ah~" Suddenly, a silent sigh resounded in everyone's hearts, including the soldiers of the Chinese New Army and America's army. (End of Chapter)
