Chapter 10: The Garand Rifle

The law of the jungle, whether it is a highly developed civilized society or a remote and backward barbarian tribe, cannot escape the law of this law, but one is barbarism in the cloak of civilization, and the other is undisguised human nature.

β€”The Autobiography of Terry, Vol. 12

The night in the Igan Plateau is particularly cold, and the wind blows in the open grassland.

In the gloomy night sky, there was not a single light in sight, there was no insect chirping, only the terrible howl of wild wolves in the distance.

The campfire was still hunting, and the others had fallen asleep, and Terry, who had volunteered to stay behind for the night's vigil, added dead grass to the campfire.

The bonfire swaying in the wind flickered on and off, and Terry, who was sitting quietly by the bonfire, looked at the bonfire stupidly, his thoughts drifting to his hometown that he didn't know how far away.

The fields of my hometown, the rolling waves of wheat, the simple villagers, and the lively market are in stark contrast to the desolate grassland.

The mother's smile, the brother's intimacy, and Darcilia's beauty floated through the glittering bonfire.

The frolic of friends, the smiles of loved ones, the joys and sorrows of the past are so far away at this moment.

"When will I see you again?"

"You're all right, I wonder if my affairs will affect you?"

"You must not have anything, I must live, I will not let you have anything."

Thinking of his hometown and relatives, and worrying about whether his own affairs would affect them, Terry couldn't help but arouse indignation and worry in his heart.

However, he already knew that he had inherited the inheritance of prehistoric civilization, and Terry's heart, which was not confident before, had slowly been infused with a strong desire; His cowardly personality has slowly turned into a vision for the future.

"Brother Terry, are you homesick?"

Ensign Sean's voice whispered behind Terry's back.

"Hmmm! What about you, ensign? ”

Terry didn't look back, still staring blankly at the campfire.

"Like you, although my relatives are estimated to have ......"

Ensign Sean moved to Terry's side, picked up a handful of dry grass, and threw a portion of it into the campfire, answering with a heavy heart.

"I'm sorry, second lieutenant!"

Although the second lieutenant didn't finish, Terry also knew that Second Lieutenant Sean's family was afraid of bad luck.

"It's okay, I was already mentally prepared when I decided to follow the major general, and the major general was right, everything was for the sake of the ideal."

Ensign Sean patted Terry on the shoulder, smiled wryly, and said in a relaxed manner.

Sean's bitter smile looked in Terry's eyes, although he didn't know why these rebels rebelled against the empire! I don't know that Sean knows that doing this will harm his family, but he still unswervingly walks on this road!

But Terry knows that whether it is Major General Oprah or Sean in front of him, the reason for embarking on the path of rebellion must be different from his own.

"Maybe they're for some lofty ideal!"

Looking at Ensign Sean's face that looked particularly resolute in the campfire, Terry thought silently in his heart.

"Rustle..."

Terry, who had been transformed by the Yanhuang system, became extremely sensitive in hearing, and suddenly a small sound came from the grass in the distance, which immediately reached his ears clearly.

"Ensign, there's a situation."

Terry reached for the rifle beside him and easily warned Ensign Sean beside him.

"Well, get ready for battle and follow my orders before acting."

Hearing Terry's warning, Second Lieutenant Sean did not rush to extinguish the campfire, and gave Terry a soft command, and then stood up as if nothing had happened.

"Ensign, at seven o'clock, there should be quite a few people."

Of course, Terry understood what Lieutenant Sean meant, so he didn't turn his head, but looking at his constantly shaking ears, he knew that his attention was completely focused on hearing at the moment. Soon, Terry had a rough guess about the direction and number of people coming from the noise.

"Let's get moving, I'll wake you up, you be on guard."

Ensign Sean, who was pretending to stretch his waist, suddenly kicked the campfire away, turned around and quickly explained to Terry, and blew the whistle on his neck.

"Beep..."

A long and sharp whistle woke up everyone who was resting, although everyone was sleeping soundly at the moment, but the long-term military training still made everyone wake up immediately.

"All of them, seven o'clock direction, ready for battle."

Spit out the whistle, Ensign Sean pulled the bolt of the gun and rolled on the spot, while loudly alerting the soldiers who had woken up.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang..."

As soon as Ensign Sean's voice fell, a chaotic rifle sound sounded in the direction of seven o'clock, and it could be known from the gunfire that the other party should not be a regular army, because there were the rough sound of Miller's rifles, as well as the sound of various rifles produced by other countries, and even a few dull gunshots, which should have been issued by old-fashioned gunpowder guns.

Bullets whizzed past everyone's heads, because of Terry's early warning, so the enemy and everyone still have a certain distance, in this dark environment, such a chaotic shooting, it is impossible to have an accurate head.

"At seven o'clock, the muzzle is lowered by two degrees, the platoon shoots, ready ... Put. ”

"Bang Bang"

Unlike the chaotic gunfire of the enemy, in the 2 seconds when the enemy fired the first bullet and pulled the bolt, everyone was ready and immediately pulled the trigger in unison according to Ensign Sean's order.

"Ahh

"Ahh I got shot, damn it! ”

"Help... Mom... I don't want to die! ”

"Aizatu, he... Why... Sala Drum Tower (Immortal Heaven) Mother... Come and save me)"

After the neat row of guns, the effect was immediate, and the second time the opponent's gunfire was much sparse, but there were a lot more wails and muffled snorts.

"Let's go! Walk! Walk! Go fast, the idea is hard. ”

"Zha Hebu, you dog, what are you talking about fat sheep, if you don't die, Lao Tzu will kill you alive."

The gunfire gradually thinned out, and in the midst of the wails, Terry, who had a keen sense of hearing, vaguely heard a burst of angry scolding in the distance.

"Tom tom... Bite! ”

Unlike the gruff sound of the "thump" of Miller's rifle, a continuous muffled sound of gunfire rang out, which only stopped after a ding.

"Ah, the boss was killed."

"We surrender, we surrender, don't shoot."

When the strange gunfire of the continuous was over, the battlefield fell silent.

The enemy, presumably because the leader had been killed, threw away their rifles and wailed and forged forgiveness.

Second Lieutenant Sean and his comrades, on the other hand, were stunned by the high rate of fire of the Garand rifle, and although they knew they couldn't see anything, they still looked at where Terry was.

Terry didn't know that it was because of himself that he ended the battle early, and when he saw that the enemy had surrendered, he didn't continue to shoot despite pressing the magazine into the magazine, but turned off the safety in front of the trigger guard.

"Kill a leader of the murderous bandits and get 20 gold coins."

"Due to the notoriety of the bandit leader, gain 80 reputation points."

"The reputation exchange system is on."

"Congratulations to the inheritor, you have gained prestige for the first time, and the system will reward you with a random prestige package."

"Congratulations to the Inheritor for opening the Fame Pack and getting a Tank Instructor."

Terry lay there quietly waiting for Captain Sean's orders as he listened to the prompts coming from the system.

"All of them, search forward."

Although everyone was curious about Terry's rifle, the battle was not over at this time, and everyone was only stunned for two seconds, and under the order of Ensign Sean, they bent over and slowly approached the attacking enemy.
