Chapter 6: Z3 Highlands
The cook who was carried back was extremely wounded, the forearm of the giant beetle pierced his chest and abdomen, and a large mouthful of blood continued to gush out of his mouth, and the wound on his chest and abdomen had begun to glow with pale green mucus.
It was the toxin of the giant beetle, a very powerful neurotoxin, in the case of not being treated in time, it was difficult for ordinary people to survive for half an hour, and it was extremely painful when they died, Qin Hao had already seen too many of his companions die under this toxin.
"Rest in peace, brother!" Qin Hao directly took out the pistol and shot it at the forehead of this cooking soldier!
"Bang!" With the sound of a gunshot, the cook closed his eyes as if relieved.
"Are you crazy? The fourth child is not dead, why did you kill him? Another cook shouted excitedly, he had a good relationship with the dead cook, and he couldn't understand it for a while as he watched his friend die at the hands of his comrades.
"If you have an incurable injury, I will help you out! If it were me, I would like you to do the same! Qin Hao glanced at the cook soldier coldly, and then continued to rush towards the Z3 Heights without looking back.
"What are we going to do?" The recruits looked at each other, they didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse to follow this cold-blooded veteran.
"Fourth ......" Several cooks gathered around the dead fourth and tried to leave with his body.
"Shhh...... Squeak......" With a scream, another team of giant beetles rushed up!
"Let's go!" The first to react were the recruits, although they had never experienced the battlefield, but after all, they were trained combatants, so they still had some ability to judge the battle situation, they knew that they had a few pounds and a few taels, and in the absence of that veteran, they might not even be able to handle a single bug, let alone the giant beetle of this squad.
So these recruits immediately followed Qin Hao's footsteps and rushed towards the Z3 Heights, followed by a few cooks who also ran behind them, leaving only three cooks who were the best with the fourth, dragging the corpse of the fourth, moving with difficulty step by step.
Because they had to drag the corpse of the fourth child, the speed of the three cooking soldiers slowed down all of a sudden, coupled with the strong smell of blood on the fourth child, the small group of giant beetles was immediately attracted to it.
"Ahh One of the cooks screamed in fright, then leaned and kicked his foot.
"What a bunch!" Qin Hao, who had already rushed far away, went and returned, although reason told him that these cooking soldiers were a burden, but Qin Hao was not a completely cold-blooded war machine after all, although he had known these cooking soldiers for a short time, it was impossible to watch them die here.
"Da da da......" Qin Hao's electromagnetic rifle swallowed tongues of fire and shot out an accurate line of fire, although this scattered bullet could not kill any giant beetle, but the impact of the bullet and the pain after being injured still suppressed the giant beetles of this small team, making them unable to move forward.
"Da ......" Several recruits behind Qin Hao also ran back, and the electromagnetic rifles in their hands were also firing fiercely.
It is easy to be infected by emotions on the battlefield, seeing Qin Hao desperately turning around to save his companions, these recruits who also have weapons in their hands also followed back without hesitation!
"You guys get out of here!" Qin Hao shouted at the few cooking soldiers who were carrying the corpses.
"Yes!" These people also knew that time was pressing, so the three of them worked together to set up the body of the fourth child, and then ran towards the front.
"Alternate cover!" Qin Hao let out a loud shout, then withdrew from the battlefield first, and after running more than ten meters at a rapid speed, he turned around and fired at the giant beetle swarm again.
When retreating, flee in one go, it will be covered by someone's buttocks, and none of them may survive at that time, after all, a two-legged living person can't outrun a six-legged worm, so someone must cover.
But if you leave someone behind, it is equivalent to sending people to death, so alternate cover has become a habitual means of retreating on the battlefield, although a few recruits have not been on the battlefield much, but after professional military training, so this tactical action is nothing to them.
After Qin Hao reopened fire, these recruits also ceased fire one after another, and then retreated backwards, and after opening up a distance, their firepower began again, covering Qin Hao's retreat.
In this way, Qin Hao and the recruits covered each other, moving closer to the Z3 highland little by little, and those cooking soldiers also supported each other, and climbed all the way to the Z3 highland with the body of the fourth child.
"Little bunnies, you don't have any less?" The strong bear-like second company commander Ralph had already arrived at the Z3 heights at this time, but the soldiers under his command were not as lucky as him, the second company had a total of more than 100 people, and at this time there were less than 50 people who arrived at the Z3 heights to complete the assembly, even if some soldiers were still on the way, it is estimated that the battle loss rate of the second company at the time of landing was more than 30%!
According to federal regulations, a combat unit that loses more than 30 percent of its combat strength will be defined as disabled, and if it loses 50 percent of its combat strength, it can be called a loss of combat effectiveness.
But for the beach-grabbing landing, as much as you can gather, you have to rush up, this kind of battle itself is to fill in with human lives, so the losses of the various units that parachuted into the Alpha Star are very heavy, so Ralph was very surprised to see that Qin Hao, the cooking squad, actually arrived at the Z3 Heights (although the fourth was killed, he also arrived at the Z3 Heights after all), he was still very surprised.
"You guys, return to the team immediately!" Ralph shouted to the recruits, these people were combatants after all, and Qin Hao and the others were just cooks.
"Company commander, what about us?" A cook asked.
"Find a place to squint, don't bother me!" Ralph roared, and then went to assemble his troops, for Qin Hao and the other cooking soldiers, he didn't bother to look at them at all, unless it was time to eat, who could think of them?
"Boom!" With a heavy sound, a Gauss cannon was airdropped on the Z3 heights, and then one after another heavy weapons were in place, and the 106th Mechanized Infantry Division began to arrange defensive positions and stabilize the battle line.
"Twelve o'clock! Enemy attack! With a terrible scream, a large number of insect swarms appeared on the north side of the Z3 Heights, and in addition to the most basic giant beetles, there were even quite a few plasma bugs!
"Boom!" I saw a plasma worm in the distance with its back to Z3 Heights, its huge belly glowing blue with a violent contraction, followed by a cloud of plasma spraying out of its tail, heading straight for the defenders on the high ground.
