Chapter 68: Counterattack

7:22 p.m. It was completely dark.

But the people on the ground didn't know exactly what was going on in a certain passage, and they didn't know what they actually released after paying several lives to turn on the force field limiting device.

For now, at least, the Imperial Army still has the upper hand—roughly three times as many as the rebels, more light weapons, and a morale that hasn't yet collapsed.

It was a monster that walked through the crowd, but the monster had also lost its sharp claws. While no one could hurt him, the Imperial soldiers had learned to avoid him from afar, trading the lives of some of their unlucky comrades for their time to kill other ordinary people.

But with the exception of Resolute, almost no one noticed that just a minute after the lieutenant colonel jumped into that entrance, some imperceptible change had taken place on the battlefield.

In the midst of this group of "ordinary people", death has struck.

An Imperial soldier stumbles upon a figure. The figure appeared to be on a vague footing, staggering three steps before disappearing behind a broken wall. Although he wears an empire-style body armor, the rest of his outfit is civilian clothes.

Without hesitation, the soldier fired a burst shot to the left side of the broken wall, suppressing his escape route, and then quickly changing a magazine to save time pulling the bolt after the last bullet had been filled into the chamber.

Then, he rolled on the spot to dodge two stray bullets and appeared on the right side of the wall, his automatic weapon firing without hesitation, raining six bullets into the hiding place of the enemy he remembered.

The whole process takes less than two seconds. It is as invulnerable as flowing water, and can almost be included in the infantry drill code as a demonstration example.

But the problem was that the infantry code he was using was the one who revised it seventeen years ago. When the flames were gone, the soldiers noticed that the man had disappeared from behind the wall.

Then he heard a "jingle bell" on his right side - the sound of a grenade rolling as it hit a stone on the ground. He immediately glanced to the right and subconsciously jumped to the left. But the message that came back at that glance told him that it wasn't a grenade, but the sound of a rusty key pulling and hitting the ground.

The alarm came to his mind, and the soldier turned his head to the left.

Then I saw blood gushing high from the cut in my neck.

Dai Bingcheng took advantage of the momentum of the soldier's landing to regain his balance, and used the headless corpse to block three bullets aimed at him, snatched the automatic rifle from the corpse's hand at the moment when the corpse landed and stirred up a cloud of smoke and dust, and randomly fired a point into the distance and kicked the corpse.

So the gunfire there stopped abruptly. Dai Bing rolled triumphantly, hiding in another rubble before a real grenade thrown on his right exploded. Three more bullets were sent into the attacker's head.

It was only then that the corpse on the ground stopped shaking - the grenade that it had crushed under it detonated, but it only shook the corpse again, and a cloud of smoke was raised.

In five seconds. Three soldiers lost their lives. Although this is considered the periphery of the battlefield. But the Imperial soldiers who still had the formation had noticed something strange here - there were three corpses of their comrades on the ground. However, there were no corpses of the enemy.

A squad leader with soldiers under his command who was still in formation waved his hand to this side, signaling the five soldiers around him to outflank him.

The squad leader realized that the enemy was difficult to entangle, and was very good at ambushing him—he wanted to surround that man with his numerical superiority. Forced him to fight his six men head-on.

"Force him to take the lead!" The squad leader said in the communication channel, "Don't let him hide like a mouse!" Let him be exposed! ”

As soon as his words fell, his wish was granted.

An automatic rifle with empty magazines was thrown from behind a low wall ten meters away and smashed directly into his face. He didn't even have time to see what it was, and his entire facial bone was completely dented, and the whole person fell straight to the ground like a stake.

The frontal battle he wanted came—but not in the way he had hoped.

This stabbed the hornet's nest, and the bullets from the five soldiers' assault rifles immediately poured into that corner. But the figure had already jumped out before the first bullet hit the ground, or rather, before they could pull the trigger, stepping on the splinters on the ground, stumbling a few times, skillfully avoiding the bullet, and lunging at a corporal.

The corporal felt as if he was cursed - the other party was less than two meters away from him, and he had strong arms and fingers that didn't tremble, but he just couldn't hit that guy!

When he could see Dai Bingcheng's expressionless face, he finally couldn't help but retreat, but he tripped over the ordinary broken bricks and lost his balance.

Dai Bingcheng rushed behind him at an unbelievable speed and held him up very kindly. However, before the corporal had time to say "thank you" or "die", he had already severed the other man's spine with a vibrating knife, and then grabbed the corporal's arm - and wiped out his magazine in one go.

A frontal battle that got what it wanted. The six-man squad was wiped out.

Dai Bingcheng held on to the corpse and slowly sat on the ground to catch his breath. Then he groped around the corpse and pulled out a blood-stained bar of nutrition. The thing had been pierced by bullets, and blood and minced flesh had seeped into the package. It took him a few seconds to tear the package open with his slightly trembling fingers, look at the bloody layer on the brown surface, and still shove it into his mouth and chew it croakingly.

In fact, he could run away now—few people could stop him.

But the reason why he still lingered on the edge of the battlefield was because of those people who should be brought with him. Originally, Dai Bingcheng had no bad feelings towards the "organization", but he didn't have any "good feelings" - his attitude was neutral. However, he later learned that Ying was definitely the person in charge of the "organization".

In any case, he had a very good impression of Ying Jie - this was a loyal old subordinate, his right-hand man. Dai Bingcheng is not surprised that Ying Ying will definitely come to this point, but he is only slightly puzzled if it is the people of the "organization" who wake him up, why did he not transfer himself away in the first place, but to make trouble to this point?

But this little doubt didn't stop him from seeing what the rebels had done tonight—they had done enough to save themselves.

He realized that if he needed to use the strength of this organization in the future, then he could not escape alone tonight - he had to persevere, gain praise and even admiration.

On the other hand, the area was covered by a force field limiting device - once he escaped from the field and encountered a powerful person who came to intercept him, the situation would become quite dangerous. Because his body was already very weak.

So he sat on the ground and covered himself with a corpse, earning dozens of seconds of respite.

There were about 150 people left in the Imperial Army, and only 60 or so rebels. They fought in the area, and some tried to retreat, but were held back by the enemy. Even Ying Ran encountered great resistance when he tried to get closer to Dai Bingcheng. It was as if the soldiers of the Imperial Army, who did not know what they were dying, had hindered Ying Ran's pace at the cost of their lives, and it was extremely difficult to walk from one end of the battlefield to the other end of the battlefield in just a few hundred meters from Dai Bingcheng's position.

The Reich is waiting for the arrival of the second missile. If the force field restraint device had been destroyed, he could easily clear the area in five minutes. But the problem is that before that, Dai Bingcheng had already been killed by the power.

So the situation became a little weird, and he could only hope for the old general—that he was as fierce and unstoppable as before.

Nine of the more than one hundred and fifty men had suddenly lost contact within a minute, and it wasn't because of necessity—the same thing that struck the highest-ranking captain on the scene, who had taken over command temporarily.

He realized that it might be Dai Bingcheng - he was out of trouble.

The second lieutenant was surprised by the strength of the other party, but it was only surprised. After all, the current capable people have become ordinary people, and as a veteran among veterans, Dai Bingcheng should have this kind of strength.

So he diverted a ten-man squad from Ying Ran's side and ordered them to take out Dai Bingcheng as quickly as possible, their original goal.

In between battles, ten men replenished ammunition and changed equipment, and slaughtered the other side of the battlefield with great vigour.

The Captain Commander continued to receive reports from them—clearing the obstacles, killing enemy soldiers who had left the line, confirming the whereabouts of the nine fighters who had previously disappeared, and finally locking on to the target.

The second lieutenant temporarily diverted his attention and directed the remnants of the force to continue to deliver fire to the enemy camp, and at great cost dragged back the decisive footsteps.

A few pieces of the scale armor on Ying Decei's body had been knocked off, and one eye was completely covered in blood. But he still dismantled the ranks of the Imperial soldiers with a terrifying efficiency of harvesting a human head every few seconds.

A minute later, the captain, who was able to catch his breath for the time being, re-entered the channel of the team he had sent out.

However, no one responded to him, and he only heard a rustling sound.

The second lieutenant looked stunned for a few seconds, then turned to ask one of the ensigns next to him who was hiding his body behind the rubble, "...... What's going on? ”

The second lieutenant gave him a blank look, then turned his face to concentrate on shooting at Ying Ran.

The second lieutenant asked himself again - what was going on?

Then he made a decision that he regretted countless times in the days to come—he sent a team of fifteen people to the area where Dai Bingcheng was.

This time, he didn't divert his attention, tracking the mission information of the assault team all the way.

For three minutes, he heard a series of screams and gunfire from the soldiers, and finally the group's communication channel fell silent.

Today, I don't know what's going on in Lu Dao, and I'm confused when I write these heads. I'll go watch a movie and write later...... (To be continued......)
