Chapter 41: Change

Plans can never catch up with changes, and the form of the battlefield is ever-changing. Sometimes a small factor can make the difference in the outcome of a war.

β€”The Autobiography of Terry, Vol. 31

The Fifth Mountain Division is indeed a very special division, and the reason why I say this is because the Fifth Mountain Division is a division with mottled blood.

After the former "Invincible Iron Wolf Division" was incorporated into the Fifth Division, after so many years of blood exchange, in fact, only one pioneer battalion was left that really had the inheritance.

This pioneer battalion still retains the bloodthirsty style of the "invincible iron wolf division", whenever a war breaks out, most of the soldiers of the brother troops are afraid of being sent to the battlefield, but this pioneer battalion is the opposite, every time it rushes to the front like a hungry wolf that smells blood, and this time is no exception.

By the time the sky was white, the pioneer battalion was less than two kilometers away.

"Kids, rest on the spot for fifteen minutes and get your gear in order. Remember, our goal is to kill all the enemies who dare to stand in our way, and as for the orders from above, we will wait until we have had a good time. ”

The officer, wearing the five-pointed star badge with a wolf's head, gave an order and took his deputy to the front to guard it himself.

And these officers and soldiers under him, after listening to the order, none of them spoke, just stopped and silently sorted out the equipment on their bodies, and then sat down to rest nearby, regardless of the cold snow.

Although all the soldiers were serious and silent, there was a murderous look in everyone's determined eyes, as if they were a vicious wolf ready to choose people to devour.

The so-called ready to go, this officer let everyone rest at this time, this is the truth, of course, he didn't know that it was because of this short fifteen minutes, but it changed the outcome of this war.

Fifteen minutes is really short, that is, the time for ordinary people to eat a meal, but these 15 minutes just allowed the major general who got the news to send a supply team.

Although Terry didn't know that the Empire's vanguard was faster than he expected, it still only took him 20 minutes to reach Mingguang Castle.

Because Terry had changed into a regular soldier's uniform, it was easy to meet Major General Oprah as he returned to the barracks.

Major General Oprah was not surprised to see Terry, not that Major General was unpredictable, but he knew very well that Terry must have something very important when he took such a risk to meet him.

When Major General listened to Terry's information, Major General Oprah was equally taken aback.

Although Major General Oprah was very surprised at this time, Major General did not panic, just thought for a few seconds, gathered the officers in the barracks, and began to issue orders in an orderly manner.

Soon, a supply team of logistics first rushed to the preset ambush position, and the remaining officers also gathered their respective troops and began to deploy along the defensive positions on the periphery of Mingguang Fort.

Of course, due to the lack of Sean and their team, the defensive formation was a little weak, so they had to reluctantly abandon the two trenches in front.

However, as long as Sean and the others can arrive at the scheduled time, the current defense should be able to withstand it.

"Major General, I have to rush over too, take care."

Seeing that the Major General had finished giving the order and all the officers had left the conference room, Terry immediately came to Major General Oprah and reported.

"Well, Sean is indeed the one who knows you best, and with you, the odds will increase a lot this time, but my child, you also have to pay attention to your own safety."

"Yes, Major General. Thank you, Major General. ”

"Come back alive. No matter what happens, remember that your life is the most important thing, even if all of us are sacrificed, but you can't. ”

Seeing that Terry's face had changed a lot, Major General Oprah suddenly said a pun, and then waved his hand to let Terry leave.

There was another layer of meaning implied in Major General Oprah's words, of course Terry didn't understand at this time, but the heartfelt concern in Major General's words made Terry's eyes red.

Of course, Terry didn't say anything more! Seeing the major general waving his hand, he immediately turned around and strode out of the barracks, but the sense of responsibility in his heart was a little heavier.

"Bang!"

A shot from Miller's rifle pierced the silent jungle near Fort Bright Light!

At this time, the morning light has already reflected the sky red, if it were not for this gunshot, such a morning light indicates that a heavy snow is about to come, then this dense forest will fall into silence for several days, but this gunshot, but this gunshot, but all this no longer exists.

This gunshot, like a drop of rain before a storm, in the fiery morning light, the tracer light of the 7.9mm bullet rubbing the air continued to intertwine in the still dark forest, and the explosion of the Miller rifle was sparse at the beginning, and basically mixed in the back.

With the defenders prepared, this open field in front of Mingguang Fort can definitely turn the attacking side into a purgatory of death. Therefore, the vanguard battalion of the 5th Mountain Division, which was discovered, did not rush out of the forest, but leaned on the thick trees and began to shoot at the defenders.

"Kids, slow down the shooting, aim and shoot. We have a limited number of bullets. ”

The commander of the pioneer battalion was very surprised, but he did not expect that the other party had already prepared in advance.

Although I don't know when my whereabouts were revealed, since I lost my suddenness, the meaning of the sneak attack no longer exists. But if you want to attack strongly, no matter how powerful your people are, it will be difficult to capture the well-defended fortress.

The bigger problem was that in order to advance lightly, the pioneer battalion did not carry too much ammunition, so the commander of the pioneer battalion gave the order while thinking about how to change the combat plan.

"Lieutenant Colonel Horay! Since the other side is prepared, we might as well surround the other party first to prevent them from escaping, and wait for our follow-up troops to arrive, as long as there is artillery, it will be much easier. ”

A glasses officer next to the commander expressed his opinion, and from the words of this glasses officer, it can be seen how confident this team is, and they want to surround this place with this manpower, you must know that they do not know that the defenders of Mingguang Fort have been divided into two parts.

"That's it."

"Children, listen to my orders, a defensive group of three people, disperse around the fortress. Keep my eyes open and staring at it, I don't want anyone to run out of it. ”

The Lieutenant Colonel Horay took the advice of the glasses officer and gave a unique order. The reason why this order is unique is that in the Empire's military combat regulations, independent combat teams must be formed in teams of at least six people.

However, after Major Horley's order was conveyed, the soldiers of the pioneer battalion did not hesitate, as if all this had become a habit, and immediately quickly divided into countless groups of three and scattered into the forest.

As the Pioneer Battalion moved, the gunfire slowly thinned out. Seeing that there was no figure in the forest again, the soldiers of the defending army also breathed a sigh of relief, due to the defense of the fortifications, not many people were killed on both sides of this wave of fire.

The guards were relieved, but Terry was in trouble, for he had just reached the trench at the front of the fortifications when the battle began.

Since this trench was not connected to the trench behind it, Terry couldn't get up and go around in any other direction in the rain of bullets flying in the sky.

"It looks like the other side has stopped attacking, and now is an opportunity."

When the gunfire stopped, Terry couldn't wait any longer, and was ready to go back to the camp and then find another way to leave.

With his decision in mind, Terry immediately found a place with a relatively high shield and climbed out of the trench and ran in the direction of the camp.

"Bang!"

But Terry had barely reached the front of the trench in the rear, and was already in the silence of the woods, when suddenly the sound of Miller's rifle was heard.

"Poof!"

The opponent's marksmanship was very accurate, and the timing was very good, and when Terry had just straightened up and was about to climb into the trench, the bullet hit Terry's back accurately. Terry, who was shot in the back, lunged forward and fell into the second trench.
