Armor-piercing bullets don't believe in carbon-based monsters

Chapter 141 Improvisation

"Two Holy Bloods have appeared ahead! Very fast! They have already approached the machine gun position within 100 meters, deal with them quickly!"

"Artillerymen of the Mechanicus Skitarii appeared on the left. They used two heavy artillery pieces to bombard our positions. The 50-meter range of the explosion is a kill zone. Everyone take cover!"

"The Holy Blood rushed into our position under the cover of artillery shells! Huang Qi and Huang Yue have been killed. Put down your weapons and deal with the others quickly!"

"The enemy's firing phalanx has closed in and has broken our first line of defense. All the combatants on the first line of defense have been killed. The rest of the troops must quickly consolidate the line of defense!"

"The defense line is running low on ammunition. Logistics personnel, hurry up and bring the ammunition up!"

In Huangshi City, Huang Yu gave orders in an orderly manner.

Following his orders, all the combatants kept running, changing weapons, and making "bang bang" sounds of firing with their mouths, simulating a battle in which they could not see the enemy at all.

The scene was so interesting that even the young children watching on the side couldn't help but join in. They followed the adults' footsteps and moved back and forth between the bunkers, transporting ammunition and transferring the wounded for them according to simple instructions.
-
But the problem is that such "fun" is only for bystanders.

But for those fighters who really devoted themselves to this impromptu exercise, it was not "fun" at all.

The consumption of physical strength is actually a small matter. After all, during this period of time, the food supply has increased sharply, and the physical fitness of each of them is recovering rapidly.

What really made them miserable was the extreme exercise conditions set by Huang Yu.

During dinner time and halftime, everyone gathered around Huang Yu and vented their doubts and dissatisfaction to him.

The man with the loudest voice first gulped down a large bucket of water, then shouted to the yellow croaker:

"Captain, an exercise is an exercise, but the goal of your exercise should at least be reasonable, right?"

"What the hell, they have heavy artillery? Last time, the Templar Guards Brigade only had two artillery pieces. Could they send a whole Guards Brigade this time?"

"Yup!"

As soon as the man finished speaking, others immediately echoed:
"It's ridiculous that the Holy Blood suddenly appeared 100 meters in front of the machine gun position. Can they be invisible? Or can they just crawl out of the ground?"

"Although we don't have the equipment that the captains have, we are not blind!"

"Doesn't this entire lake exist? How did the Holy Blood Ones get close without us noticing?"

"This is so unfair! This kind of situation would never happen in a real battle!"

"Yes! And your conditions are too harsh. I just picked up the gun and you told me that I was killed by a heavy artillery, as if the shells were aimed at me."

"At least you have to tell us where the shells will fall so we can react accordingly, right?"

"I don't know anything now. Isn't it just luck?"

"That's right, this exercise is too sloppy. It's all based on what one thinks. What's the point of this exercise?"

The crowd was clearly agitated, and it was obvious that they had been hit by the yellow croaker in the exercise just now.

Because in the exercise just now, the final result of the yellow croaker was that the defenders of Huangshi City were completely wiped out.

But how can people easily accept such a result?
Putting aside other things, your judging standards are not reasonable at all!
My goodness, in a real battle, when I was fighting with the captains, I was able to kill one or two Holy Blood People in close combat. But now you tell me that as long as a Holy Blood People get within 30 meters, I will be dead?
How could there be such a Saint Blood in this world? No matter how strong they are, they can't be this strong, right?

Everyone believed that the reason why the exercise turned out like this was purely because Huang Yu did not understand the enemy and the battlefield.

Total annihilation of the army is not the real ending, it is just the ending that Huang Yu wants.

As a result, there were voices in the crowd asking Huang Yu to stop directing the next performance and let someone with more combat experience take over.

But yellow croaker turned a deaf ear to such voices.

He just raised his hand, signaling everyone to shut up, and said calmly:

"The commander has told all of us that we should be prepared for the enemy's leniency."

"What we did in this exercise was to anticipate the enemy's leniency."

"Think carefully about the unreasonable points you mentioned. Are they really that unreasonable?"

"You said you could fight the Holy Blood, but can you really survive within 30 meters?"

"Also, why should I tell you where the shells will land? If the Adeptus Mechanicus really attacks, will they tell you where they will land?"

After the words fell, everyone fell silent.

After a long time, someone spoke again:
"But this kind of exercise is still unreasonable. We didn't practice anything at all. We didn't have time to do anything. We just listened to you calling out our names."

After saying this, a mysterious smile appeared on Huang Yu's face.

He coughed and then said:

"Don't worry, you die first in this round, and I promise that Huang Ze will die first in the next round."

"There are only 40 of us. Don't I know to let you all practice?"

"Depend on!"

A man named Huang Ze not far away cursed helplessly, but it was obvious that he had no way to deal with the yellow croaker.

They have made up their minds to play it this way, what can you do?
With a powerful enemy at hand, it is better to rehearse than not to rehearse.

At worst, after the game, I can find an open place to practice again.
As a result, the turmoil caused by dissatisfaction with the exercise was quickly quelled.

After everyone had dinner and took a short rest, Huang Yu ordered all the lights in Yellowstone City to be turned off and continued with his planned "night combat exercise."

Obviously, without sufficient light sources, the difficulty of combat increases by more than double.

Almost no one was really fighting effectively; the only thing they were doing was running between cover, trying to remember their route in the dark.

This made everyone feel that the exercise was meaningless, and they suggested more than once whether they should fire two of the flares that were still in the warehouse and try to conduct the exercise in a lit environment.

But this request was also rejected by Huang Yu, but this time it was not because he had any special purpose.

I simply can't bear to waste such precious equipment.

It was not until nearly 12 o'clock that the exercise was declared over.

After a day of training, everyone sat together, looking a little tired, listening to Huang Yu's summary. Although their faces were covered with dust, it could not be seen that their physical strength had not been squeezed to the limit.

After all, their daily work is quite hard, and their endurance has long been trained.

Looking at everyone whose eyes were still clear, Huang Yu nodded with satisfaction.

He had no intention of increasing the intensity of the exercise from the beginning. After all, a fight could happen at any time, so it was better to stop at the right time.

Of course, this is one of the reasons why he set the exercise conditions so harsh.
After briefly summarizing the results of the exercise, Huang Yu arranged the guard posts. But just when he wanted to disband the team and let everyone go back to rest, a black spot suddenly appeared in his sight.

Huang Yu turned to the black spot in confusion, and then he saw that under the dim starlight, on the reflective lake surface, something was approaching rapidly.

In an instant, the yellow croaker's hair stood on end.

The next second, he shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Enemy attack!!"

"The Holy Blood One has approached within 500 meters!"

"Everyone prepare to fight!"

“This time it’s real!!”

His voice echoed throughout the city of Yellowstone, and then a gunshot suddenly rang out from the lake.

"boom!"

The gunshot completely woke up everyone who was still in a daze, and then everyone stood up from the bunker.

There was no need for any additional commands, as the muscle memory formed during the exercise still controlled their actions.

Some people quickly ran to the anti-aircraft machine gun position deployed at the highest point, some picked up the rockets at hand, and more people held their rifles tightly in their hands and groped their way towards their battle positions.

Huang Yu pulled out the flare he carried with him from behind, and after briefly recalling how He Shuo taught him to use it, he pulled the trigger without any hesitation.

"boom!"

After a slight sound, a shining star rose in the sky.

The area around Yellowstone City was immediately illuminated, and only then could everyone see the surrounding environment clearly.

The enemy! The enemy is swimming!

There are at least over a hundred of them, and the closest and fastest Holy Blood One has approached within 300 meters and is about to land!

The situation was extremely critical, but fortunately, at this time, gunshots finally rang out from Yellowstone City.

"Bang bang bang bang -"

At least five 5 rifles were fired at the Holy Blood Man on the raft. The bullets formed a dense fire net. In just a moment, the Holy Blood Man was forced to jump into the water!
And then, someone fired a rocket towards the lake where the Holy Blood Man fell into the water.

"boom!"

A huge explosion sounded, and when the splashing water fell, the Holy Blood also floated to the surface.

What greeted him were even more dense bullets!
"Bang bang bang bang-"

"Bang bang bang bang -"

There was a burst of gunfire, and the body of the Holy Blood floating on the water was torn into pieces.

After making sure that he could no longer pose any threat, the defenders of Yellowstone City turned their guns away and continued to search for closer targets.

Apparently, the yellow croaker's surprise exercise was useful.

It was impossible for him to make these people learn any profound tactics in such a short time, but he did help them form two most critical concepts.

First, if you don’t want to be killed by the Holy Blood, kill him from a hundred meters away.

Second, take the initiative to find the target instead of waiting for the target to find you!

Guided by these two concepts, everyone began to fight with great enthusiasm.

The anti-aircraft machine gun at the highest point spewed out flames, and the tracer bullets drew a long track on the lake.

The man operating the anti-aircraft machine gun was obviously not familiar with the gun. Even between two short bursts of fire, he paused for an unusually long time.

But this is not a fatal flaw.

He had learned how to aim and fire at the most crowded areas.

He has understood one thing:
This gun is not meant to kill, it is meant to suppress!

Under the continuous alternation of short and long bursts of fire, the enemy's speed of approaching Yellowstone City slowed down instantly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Huang Yu quickly found the direction where the enemy's forces were weakest, and shouted out new orders:

"There are only a dozen people in the east! There are no Holy Bloods! Just leave 5 people to guard it!"

"Everyone else, hurry up and reinforce the defense line on the west side! Throw grenades!"

"The enemy on the east side has landed! Open fire!"

"Don't let them line up! Don't let them shoot!"

There was a hint of hysteria in his voice, and in fact, everyone in Yellowstone City felt the same way.

They were scared, they were nervous, but they were also incredibly excited.

The real battle has begun.

This time, without the assistance of the team leaders, they have to fight on their own!

Explosions continued to sound, and Huang Yu suddenly saw a strong burst of fire erupting from the bushes in the distance.

"Bombardment! To the north!"

"hidden!"

In an instant, everyone lowered their heads.

When the shells landed in Yellowstone City and exploded, the gunfire that had just stopped for a moment continued.

"Bang bang bang bang -"

The anti-aircraft machine gun was aimed at the flashing fire in the bushes on the other side of the lake in the north. A torrent of bullets flew in that direction, instantly tearing the bushes used as cover into pieces.

The shooter operating the anti-aircraft machine gun didn't know whether he hit anything or not. After all, the distance of more than one kilometer was too far.

So, for the sake of caution, he kept firing short bursts in that direction while providing cover and suppression until there was no more artillery fire, then he turned his gun to aim at the enemy who had already landed.

At this time, the enemies' marching speed had increased.

The fastest ones among them have already rushed to within a hundred meters.

It's the Holy Blood!
An extremely clear thought flashed through everyone's mind.

Don't let them get within 30 meters.

If you get within 30 meters, I will definitely die!
In an instant, more than 10 rifles turned their muzzles and pointed at the target they considered most important.

The Holy Blood One is indeed very fast.

But no matter how fast they are, they can't survive in such a dense barrage of bullets.

What's more, in order to delay the actions of these Holy Bloods, more than 10 grenades had already been thrown.

The explosion blocked the Holy Blood's advance route, and when they were forced to pause and change direction, the fire line like a poisonous snake had already bitten them!

"Bang bang bang bang -"

Dozens of bullets were fired at the same small area. Even if it was blinded, several bullets could be blocked!
The two Holy Blood Men who were in the front fell to the ground instantly, and the other one retreated decisively after hesitating for a moment. At this time, the enemy who had successfully landed by taking advantage of the Holy Blood Men to attract firepower finally organized the first round of effective attack.
-
Or maybe it would be more appropriate to call it a counterattack.

The sound of single-shot rifles mixed with automatic rifles came from the river bank, and bullets flew over the heads and sides of the Chinese soldiers.

But they were not intimidated. Instead, they huddled in the shelters that had been built long ago and pulled the trigger nervously but steadily.

The two lines of defense opened fire at the same time, and the enemy's gunfire was instantly suppressed.

And this time, the casualties they suffered were no small number!

They were too close.

And the terrain they were in was too open.

Even in terms of height difference, they don't have an advantage!
The grenades thrown by the enemies were often blocked by the built-up bunkers, but the grenades thrown by the Chinese army could easily explode among them!
This raid did not play the role it should have, and when the muzzle of the 022 machine gun pointed at the enemy landing on the beach, the outcome of this battle seemed to be doomed.
Half an hour later.

The last enemy who had not had time to escape was captured and brought to Huang Yu.

Huang Yu looked at him coldly, pointed a gun at his head and asked:

"How many more of you are there?"

"Where is your main force?"

"Large army?"

The man with blood all over his face coughed, shook his head and said:

"There is no main force. This is all we have. All the hunter mercenaries I belong to are dead. Where is the main force?"

"impossible."

Huang Yu frowned and said:
"This is obviously just a test, and you are just cannon fodder."

"Tell me where the large force behind us is, tell me their plan, and I can let you live!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man's emotions suddenly collapsed.

Then he shouted hysterically:
"Damn it! I already told you! There's no more large forces!"

"What a damn artillery! What a damn test!"

"We tried our damnedest!"
