The arrogance started from Chinatown

Chapter 400 Beheading Operation
The black soldier's words came like a bolt from the blue.

"What?" Sherman's expression finally changed.

"They were ambushed... Everyone except us... died..." The black soldier's face was full of tears.

"Tell me, what happened?" Sherman demanded.

"At first, our cavalry regiment spread out and launched attacks on all the streets, and then we encountered an ambush... Although the enemy's troops were small, their firepower was fierce! We lost a lot of people!"

This was pretty much what Sherman had expected. Sherman had guessed that the other side would set up an ambush to guard against his cavalry.

"Then there were more people ambushing in several streets, but they were using the same rifles as us. The commander thought that was the enemy's weak point, so he gathered his forces to attack there..."

"We were left behind to attract their attention... and then we heard heavy gunfire erupting from the direction of the city center!"

"I found an alley, walked through it carefully, and then I saw bodies all over the ground... all dead... they were all dead..."

"I saw the Chinese were firing more shots... I didn't dare to make a sound, so I ran back and delivered the news!"

Bang!

Sherman turned and looked out the window, and because of his big movement, he accidentally knocked the cup on the table to the ground.

This was almost impossible to happen before.

This shows how he feels now.

Sherman had learned from the soldiers what had happened.

The Chinese man guessed that he would use cavalry to attack, so he ambushed a large number of soldiers in the rear, at least several hundred people.

However, the infantry regiment fighting head-on also encountered fierce resistance from the enemy, which had at least six or seven hundred people!
There is no way you could be wrong about this.

The commander of the infantry regiment on the front line even suspected that there were thousands of people on the opposite side... otherwise they would not have suffered such heavy casualties and their several attacks were beaten back.

So either my intelligence was wrong, or... that Chinese guy had reinforcements coming?

Sherman couldn't understand it.

Sherman signaled to the soldiers that they could leave first, and frowned as he looked at the map. What should he do next?
He suddenly realized that he didn't even know how many people there were on the other side.

There was only one thing he was sure of: the other party didn't have many bullets left.

The enemy's bullets were used on ambushing cavalry units.

"so……"

"Intensify the attack. The 10th Infantry Regiment will be ready after reorganization and ready to join the battle again at any time!"

"We must not give them a chance to rest!"

"No matter how many people they have, they are limited! They have resisted for so long, and now it has reached the critical point. The line may break at any time!"

Sherman shouted.

Even if the other side has reinforcements, after today's battle, the casualties are not small, and the number will not exceed one thousand. If they want to maintain the current line of defense, they have no chance to rest.

Even the most elite soldiers cannot withstand the pressure brought by such high-intensity combat.

Sherman's eyes focused on a certain point on the map, and his mind became clearer and clearer.

Although the cavalry regiment is gone...it's not all bad.

What the other side was guarding against was the cavalry in their hands. Now that the cavalry was almost wiped out, the other side put all the ambush troops into the front line of defense to stabilize the defense line.

He still had two cavalry companies and half an infantry regiment left.

So I should send troops to attack again, as there are gaps behind the enemy now.

That Chinese man was indeed unexpected; perhaps he really was a military genius.

But even if he thought of this, there was nothing he could do.

We have more soldiers than they do.

Their only choice is to continue to shrink their defense!

……

"Brother Wei, are you okay?" Aaron looked at Chen Zhengwei with concern.

"Fuck, I'm so tired! It's more tiring than beating eight people in one night!" Chen Zhengwei threw his coat aside, glanced around, and ordered his men: "Go find me a chair!"

Although shooting was not tiring, he walked back and forth on this front line several times that day, and he had to concentrate highly all the time. Not only did he have to participate in the battle, but he also had to keep an eye on the situation on the battlefield, analyze the opponent's offensive focus in his mind, and mobilize his men to defend.

He was exhausted after the day.

"Brother Wei, we are here now, why don't you go back and have a rest?" Aaron asked.

"Bullshit rest!" Chen Zhengwei said unhappily.

"How many bullets do you have left?" Chen Zhengwei asked directly.

"Each person has less than one magazine left..." Aaron said.

He brought 300 people this time, which means he only had 3000 submachine gun bullets left.

"3000 rounds are useless. They can be wiped out in one wave!" Chen Zhengwei lit a cigar and sat in a chair to rest, his mind racing.

"The cavalry regiment was crippled, which solved a big problem. But the enemy still has at least two infantry regiments!"

"Given Sherman's bold command style, he would definitely not fight a positional battle with us in a rigid manner. He would definitely send troops to advance and attack from the side and rear."

"We will definitely not be able to defend it if we continue like this!"

"Brother Wei, what should we do?" Aaron asked from the side.

"Behead!" Chen Zhengwei said without thinking.

"They will continue to attack and not give us a chance to rest, keeping our nerves tense! Then they will split up and launch surprise attacks at night..." Chen Zhengwei had to admit that if the other party fought like this, there was a great chance of success.

After all, the people under his command are not iron men.

"What we have to do is to gradually shrink the defense line, lure them out, leave a gap, and then send a team to raid and decapitate them!" Chen Zhengwei stretched and sneered.

"I want to have a midnight snack with Sherman tonight! This will probably be his last midnight snack. He'll have to eat dog food starting tomorrow!"

"You take your men to guard here! And retreat gradually, fighting with them street by street, and retreat to the third line of defense at eight o'clock in the evening!" Chen Zhengwei instructed. The third line of defense is only one street away from the hotel, and it is also the last line of defense. The other side can even directly shell the hotel.

At the same time, have someone pass the order to the entire line of defense.

"Pick twenty of them for me! I will personally lead the beheading tonight!"

Only he can do this.

If the bullets had not been delivered yet, there would be no need for him to do it himself, let alone support the entire line of defense by himself, and he would have held on for so long.

There is nothing we can do about it.

I can only lead people personally to launch a surprise attack and decapitation, general against general!
Fortunately, as long as we finish this battle, the next one will be easy. When the bullets and reinforcements arrive, we can take them to Washington.

"Then I'll have people gather the bullets!" Aaron said immediately. He also knew that Chen Zhengwei's skills and marksmanship were amazing, almost like a god.

This is also what he admires most.

So he did not try to persuade Chen Zhengwei, but instead wanted to gather all the remaining smokeless bullets and give them to Chen Zhengwei.

"Gather the bullets, but don't give them to me!" said Chen Zhengwei.

"They're going to have a raid tonight! Use it against them!"

After a day of fighting, he didn't have many bullets left, only about a hundred.

But it was enough for him.

There are also a large number of revolvers and rifles in his system space, the kind that use black powder bullets.

If he really encounters danger, he can just change the gun without changing the bullets.

"You guys stay here, I'm going to go back and rest for a while!" After Chen Zhengwei made the arrangements, he stood up and walked out.

"Brother Wei, I'll have someone take you back!"

"Are they protecting me, or am I protecting them?" Chen Zhengwei sneered and left without looking back.

Walking in the alleys of Chicago, the iron soles of leather shoes stepped on the stone slabs, making a metallic collision sound.

Smelling the smell of gunpowder and blood in the air, Chen Zhengwei's eyes no longer looked tired, but brighter instead.

He likes the taste.

It made him feel relaxed and happy.

This is the taste of freedom and the taste of rights!
Chen Zhengwei swayed his body, opened his arms slightly, and laughed out loud, his face full of joy.

In the box he passed by, several people secretly looked out from the window. When they saw Chen Zhengwei's figure, they were slightly stunned, then looked at each other in surprise and whispered, "It's that Chinese man!"

"It must be him. He's very tall. I saw him from a distance last time!"

These guys were just regular people in Chicago, and they knew that this Chinese guy was fighting the Army lately.

I didn't expect that he would show up here by himself.

As long as we can catch him, we can definitely make a lot of money and become rich overnight.

Several people were immediately excited, picked up their guns, quietly opened the door, and then quickly followed.

However, just as he reached the entrance of the alley, he was kicked back. Chen Zhengwei was pointing a revolver at a man's head.

boom!
Accompanied by several gunshots, Chen Zhengwei spat on the ground and turned away.

He thought he might catch some fish, but it turned out to be just a few shrimps.

He could tell at a glance that these people were just ordinary people.

A moment later, Chen Zhengwei returned to the hotel.

Anna had been looking out the window in the hotel cafe. Here, she could see Chen Zhengwei as soon as he came back.

There were gunshots outside all day long, and her heart was always in her throat.

Therefore, when Anna saw the figure who was walking unsteadily and looked like he didn't recognize anyone, she was surprised at first. She quickly stood up and trotted out, not even caring that her shoes had fallen off.

Then he flew directly towards Chen Zhengwei.

"Are you OK?"

"What can I do? Bring me some food, I'm fucking hungry!"

Anna felt relieved when she heard Chen Zhengwei's disdainful words.

Chen Zhengwei's attitude of not caring about anything and not taking anything to heart always makes people feel at ease.

When she was with him, Anna felt that she was not afraid of anything.

Soon, half an hour later, the food was served, and Chen Zhengwei even had the leisure to drink a glass of red wine while eating.

Anna stared at him intently for a long time before asking, "Can you win?"

"I plan to have a midnight snack with Sherman tonight! Of course, he will be a prisoner!" Chen Zhengwei said with a smile.

"He is the most famous general in the United States!" Anna covered her mouth with her hand, a little surprised, her eyes moving around, full of admiration.

"The one I fought was the most famous general!" Chen Zhengwei laughed.
