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

Chapter 263 Earthshaking
On the sixth day after arriving at Base 011, Jin Zhong finally received the task assigned to him.

The monster at Shijiu Lake has landed, not one, but two.

Two huge level 4 monsters.

Not only that, these monsters were also followed by a large number of blood skeleton demons and a small number of water ghosts, with the number no less than one hundred.

Chen Jian issued an order, requiring him to lead 80 trained soldiers of the Guards Brigade to Taiping City to intercept and destroy the monsters.

The first thought that flashed through Jin Zhong’s mind when he received the order was “reject”.

After all, in his opinion, it was too much to rely on the mere 80 soldiers of the Guards Brigade to wipe out so many monsters.

Without even any heavy weapons, they only rely on rifles and a small number of rocket launchers and grenade launchers?

If only monsters could be destroyed so easily!

Even if we can win, this will most likely be a one-way mission.

The expected casualties will be at least 80%, and whether the monsters can be eliminated depends on luck.
Along the way, Jin Zhong's expression was serious and heavy, as if water could be squeezed out of it.

The soldiers of the Guards Brigade around him were also equally uneasy.

".Do we really want to go? We are just partners with them. If it is a mission that cannot be completed, we can actually refuse, right?"

Someone whispered, and the soldier opposite him shook his head and replied:

"We have to go. They saved us in Jingkou. Even if it's just to repay them, we have to go."

"Those injured brothers are still in Jinling New City. If we run away, they will die."

"No matter what we abandon, we cannot abandon our brothers."

"I know, I know. I just feel that such a mission is no different from sending oneself to death."

A bleak light flashed in the eyes of the warrior who spoke. After a pause, he continued:

"If there is only one level 4 monster, I am fully confident that I can destroy it."

"If there are two level four monsters, but they don't appear at the same time and are not in the same direction, we still have a chance."

"But now there are two level 4 monsters attacking from the same direction in a coordinated manner, accompanied by an unknown number of horror demons and water ghosts."

"I don't know how to fight this kind of battle. Do they really know?"

"Those Chinese soldiers, they..."

"Of course they know how to fight!"

The person opposite interrupted his complaints.

"They have fought more than once. Even in Hanshui City, when they were at their weakest, they fought more than once."

"Stop complaining. Instead of complaining, think about what you have learned in the past few days!"

"No matter what their stance is, what they teach must be useful, otherwise, they wouldn't have come this far!"

"Shut up and get ready!"

After he finished speaking, the soldier from the Guards Brigade who spoke first let out a long sigh.

He whispered:
"I'm just afraid this is their conspiracy."

"They would not resort to such underhanded and shady methods."

Jin Zhong stood up suddenly and suppressed all the discussions with one sentence.

At this time, the truck had also braked to a stop.

He grabbed the grenade launcher that Chen Jian had specially handed to him, and then said:

"Everyone get out of the car."

"According to what you have learned, set up the formation."

"The enemy will arrive in half an hour, we must stop them."

"This battle concerns the honor of the Temple Guards Brigade. Victory belongs to us!"

After saying that, Jin Zhong jumped off the truck and quickly directed everyone to disperse.

A slightly cold electronic voice kept coming from his radio headset, reporting to him the location of the monster all the time.

He was also constantly adjusting the formation of the Guards Brigade, and according to Chen Jian's specific instructions, he arranged the team into a trapezoidal shape facing the monster's "front line" that was completely different from any conventional formation.

".The individual combat capability of your team is not weak, and their spirit of sacrifice is even stronger, but your tactics can be described as ridiculous."

"This time, when you go to intercept the monster, don't use your usual triangle formation or straight line formation."

"Listen to me, try the trapezoidal formation and play the diagonal tactics."

"This will produce unexpected results, especially when facing a mixed combat method of large and small monsters. The effect will be more obvious."

Chen Jian's simple warnings echoed in Jin Zhong's mind. He didn't yet understand whether such a tactical arrangement could produce the intended effect, but he was willing to give it a try.

In the distance, the rumbling sound of the monster hitting the ground as it moved gradually sounded, and every loud noise seemed to hit Jin Zhong's heart heavily.

He held the compass in his hand to identify the direction, and at the same time referred to the information coming from the radio. He grabbed the rifle and fired a tracer bullet, while giving the order:

"Squad One, turn 30 degrees to the right and face the direction indicated by the tracer bullet!"

"Squad two, squad three, follow the turn!"

"Class 50, Class , move forward meters!"

"Squads six, seven, and eight move to the flank of squad five and line up in a loose formation of two people!"

"The monster is already two kilometers away, it won't turn around anymore!"

"This is our first and last position!"

"Light the fire! Throw the grenade! Attract the monster's attention!"

"Get ready! The battle could start at any time!"

"Fight for the Most Holy Trinity!"

"Fight for the Most Holy Trinity!"

Roars came from all directions. Jin Zhong took a deep breath and suppressed the violent beating of his heart.

In the woods, smoke and dust gradually rose.

But the first ones to appear in front of everyone were not the two level four monsters.

It's a terrifying demon.

Holding various weapons and covered in blood, the terrifying demons rushed out of the woods, as if they wanted to tear through the defense line of the Guards Brigade with a single attack.

This is the experience they have gained from countless battles with the Crusaders.

There is no use shrinking back, and there is no point trying to circumvent or fight.

If you can rush directly into the ranks of the Crusaders after paying a certain price, the opponent will collapse instantly out of fear.

This is the only way to defeat them!

The leading demon leader waved the single-shot rifle in his hand and fired bullets at the loose line in front. He had already discovered that those standing opposite him could not be the heavily armored Guards Brigade.

They are just ordinary crusaders.

This gave it even more confidence, and it couldn't wait to rush to the front, wanting to taste the first mouthful of blood and tear off the first head to offer to the Blood God.
-
But, the moment it was exposed.

A series of violent bullets suddenly tore its body apart.

It watched two bullets pass through its shoulders, and then its right arm left its body and fell to the ground.

It looked blankly at the wound that was bleeding profusely, and subconsciously wanted to pick up its arm, but suddenly found that it had lost all ability to move.

The wound that penetrated its abdomen caused its muscle tissue, which was no different from that of a human, to contract violently, and it fell to the ground in a violent spasm.

Blood flowed into his eyes, dyeing his vision scarlet.

In the last moment before it completely lost consciousness, the last scene it saw was those "skirtarchs" jumping out from behind the bunkers and moving quickly through the jungle in a way that it could not understand at all.
"Bazooka! Get within 200 meters!"

"Fire with all your strength! Fire with all your strength!"

"Reload!"

"Squads six, seven, and eight, begin to shrink towards squad one! Clear out the bloody skeletons along the way! Strengthen the flank firepower!"

Jin Zhong kept shouting and giving orders. At this moment, he finally realized the power of the "diagonal attack" that Chen Jian mentioned.

That’s right, this is the best way to deal with densely packed monsters like Terrors when the number of combatants is insufficient!

The first, second and third squads, which had the densest formation and heaviest firepower, quickly cleared out the charging demons in front of them, and then moved forward in groups of three, quickly completing the cutting of the demon's front line.

Immediately afterwards, the other teams moved forward steadily and cooperated with the forwards to launch an attack.

Almost all of their attacks came from the flanks, and those blood skeletons couldn't find the real direction to attack. Bullets seemed to be coming from all directions. If they turned in one direction, the bullets from behind and from the flanks would still tear them apart!

With the powerful firepower of the Type 75 rifle, the first phase of the battle was as easy as strolling in the garden.

Jin Zhong’s confidence increased greatly, but he also knew very well that this was only the first stage!

Two level four monsters have appeared before our eyes.

It is impossible to kill them with the rifle in hand.——
No, it's not impossible!
Jin Zhong stood there in amazement, looking at the incredible scene in the distance.

Ten three-man combat teams from three squads were scattered in various directions. They did not have many "powerful" weapons in their hands, and even the soldiers holding rocket launchers and disposable grenade launchers had not yet approached the effective distance.

But, relying on more than 20 rifles, these team members successfully restrained the monster!

The dense firing of bullets never stopped. The soldier who had used up the bullets in the magazine shouted orders to his brothers, then quickly squatted down and loaded bullets into the magazine with a magazine.

Just seconds later, gunshots rang out again.

"Bang bang bang bang-"

There are no breaks and no need to rest.

The bullets sprayed with water may not cause substantial damage to the thick-skinned monsters, nor can they achieve the effect of killing with one shot.

However, faced with bullets coming from all directions, the monster fell into a state of confusion and didn't know what to do.

It just stood there fuming, waving its claws to try to catch the annoying "flies" that attacked it, but to no avail.
Jin Zhong vaguely felt that he seemed to have grasped some essence.

But at this moment, he didn't have time to think too much.

Boltgun raised.

Aim and inspire.

"boom!"

"boom!"

It wasn't a huge explosion, it exploded on the monster's head.

Next came the second shot, the third party.

The scales were torn apart and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

Jin Zhong shouted and ordered:
"Leave this to me!"

"Assault team, go attack the other side!"

"Yes!"

A reply sounded, and then the rocket exploded in the chest of the second level 4 monster.

"boom!"

"boom!"

The explosion was deafening. Looking at the fallen monster, Jin Zhong raised the grenade launcher again.

But this time, he didn't know which target to aim at.

Looking around with his gun in hand, he felt an unprecedented loss.
Three hours later, 011 base.

Jin Zhong stood in front of Chen Jian, with the victorious Guards Brigade behind him, full of heroic spirit.

He still hasn't figured out how the battle was won.

It was as if he had simply led his team there, fired a few shots and launched a few rockets, and the monsters fell down naturally and logically.

To be honest, he had experienced similar "crushing" battles before.

With the heavy artillery cover of the Guards Brigade, he even once killed a level 1 monster in just one minute.

But that victory seemed so insignificant compared to the victory he had just achieved.

There is a huge difference between the two.

The difference between knowing what you are doing and just going with the flow.

And obviously, the soldiers of the Guards Brigade thought the same as he did.

In the past, after every great victory, the first thing they did was to celebrate, party, brag to each other about their bravery, and boast about their loyalty to the Holy Trinity.

But now, the situation is completely different.

They are still excited and still proud of their heroic performance.

But what they were discussing was not the "future" but the "past".

They were reviewing the battle, discussing "what should have been done originally" to get a better result, "how different are training and actual combat", and "whether the same effect can be achieved with worse equipment".

From their focused expressions, Jin Zhong could even sense that they were not just “reviewing the game”.

They are reminiscing
It was as if what I just experienced was a feast for gluttony.

Jin Zhong let out a long breath, then he turned to Chen Jian again, bowed deeply, and said:
"Thank you, my lord."

"You let me let these warriors see a different world."

"nothing."

Chen Jian waved his hand casually and replied:

"I've said it before, your individual combat capability is not bad."

"It's so weak only because something was done wrong."

"I corrected some of your mistakes, so you became stronger."

"But to be honest, you are still far from being a real Chinese army."

"I see."

Jin Zhong nodded seriously, then said:
"We will continue to learn and continue to receive your training."

"No matter what, we will take on the responsibility of destroying the monsters and will also share the worries for you and your Chinese Army."

"very nice."

Chen Jian smiled and asked jokingly:
“But what if one day you discover that what you are doing conflicts with your beliefs?”

After he finished speaking, Jin Zhong suddenly froze in place.

It's not that he hasn't thought about this problem, he's just avoiding it.

But, this is a problem that must be faced.
After a long silence, he looked up at Chen Jian.

But just before he was about to speak, Chen Jian suddenly spoke again:

"It's okay, you don't have to answer me now."

"You'll figure it out later."

"Now, lead the team to rest."

"Your battle is not over yet. Next, you must continue westward."

"Going to Hanshui?"

Jin Zhong suddenly asked:

"We just received a call for help from Hanshui an hour ago. The situation there doesn't seem to be good."

"Maybe we should go over and help them."

"You don't need to worry about this."

Chen Jian shook his head and said:

"We are ready."

"That level three monster will arrive at Hanshui City in three hours."

"But don't worry."

"It'll never get there."

"Can't make it?"

Jin Zhong looked at Chen Jian in surprise.

"why?"

Chen Jian did not answer, but raised his hand and pointed to the open space in the distance.

There, a Mosquito bomber carrying two 250kg bombs was taxiing slowly.

Ten seconds later, when the plane took off, Jin Zhong's question was immediately answered.
