Warlords: Rise of the System

The bandits' attack will begin again soon.

Fang Yunpeng and his generals were about to leave when a scout from the National Salvation Army was led over.

After seeing Wang Dazhu and the others, the scout said hurriedly, "Platoon Leader Wang, Platoon Leader Zhao, Platoon Leader Guo, I finally found you."

Wang Dazhu said, "Could it be that the division headquarters has assigned us some tasks?"

The scout said, "Yes, the bandit troops below are already within the attack range of our troops."

The scout looked at his watch and continued, "At ten o'clock in the morning, in seven or eight minutes, our artillery will bombard the bandit troops below.

The mission assigned to you by the division is to assist the friendly forces here and prevent the bandits from escaping from your area."

Wang Dazhu, Zhao Changshuan and Guo Erzhuang all perked up when they heard this. It seemed that the division headquarters did not want to punish them for coming to reinforce the warlord's troops.

After the scout conveyed the order, he left quickly.

The three platoon leaders all looked at the watches on their wrists. There were less than seven minutes left until ten o'clock.

Fang Yunpeng and a group of generals who were about to leave discovered at this time that the three platoon leaders of the militia team all wore watches on their wrists, and the scout just now also had a watch on his wrist.

Watches were considered a luxury item at that time, yet they appeared in the hands of an ordinary scout.

They could accept scouts wearing watches. After all, scouts were carrying out special missions, and wearing watches would help them keep a sense of time.

What was most difficult for these officers to accept was that each of the three militia platoon leaders had a watch.

The adjutant couldn't help but ask, "Are the watches you guys wearing issued to you by your troops?"

Wang Dazhu smiled naively and said, "Yes, anyone who holds the position of squad leader or above in the army is issued a watch.

Every scout is issued a watch. In our militia, the squad leader does not have a watch. Only platoon leaders like us have watches.

The purpose of these watches issued to us by the army is to help us keep a sense of time so that we can carry out the tasks assigned to us.”

Fang Yunpeng and a group of generals were filled with jealousy and envy. They had not expected that the National Salvation Army was so arrogant that watches were even distributed to squad leaders.

None of these warlord officers, including the brigade commander Fang Yunpeng, were given watches, let alone other officials under him.

Many of Fang Yunpeng's generals had the idea of ​​joining the National Salvation Army as a squad leader and getting a watch to wear first.

After learning that the bandit troops below had been targeted by the National Salvation Army.

Fang Yunpeng and his generals had no plans to leave Hill 373. They wanted to see firsthand the combat effectiveness of the National Salvation Army here.

Time passed quickly, and the bandit troops below were preparing to launch another attack on the positions garrisoned by the warlord troops.

The National Salvation Army's bombardment began.

There was a loud bang, and a cannonball whizzed across the sky and hit the bandit troops.

Soon after, more artillery shells arrived, falling on the bandits' positions as densely as raindrops.

The huge impact force generated by the explosion of the shell overturned everything around it to the ground.

Mud, rocks and corpses were blown everywhere, creating a smoke-filled scene.

The bandits screamed in terror and tried to escape from this hellish scene, but there was nowhere to escape.

Some bandits were directly hit by artillery shells and turned into meat paste in an instant.

Other bandits were torn into pieces by shrapnel and shock waves, and blood splattered everywhere.

Although some bandits were lucky enough to avoid direct hits from the shells, they were still knocked to the ground by the powerful gusts of air and suffered serious injuries.

The entire battlefield became chaotic and the bandits fell into extreme panic.

They struggled desperately to escape from this land of death, but every step was fraught with danger.

At this time, the gunners of the National Salvation Army were busy loading shells and continuing to attack the bandits.

Their precise shooting ensured that every shell hit the target accurately, causing greater casualties to the bandits.

The bandit troops never dreamed that they would be bombarded by artillery fire, and it was intensive bombardment.

Thick gunfire and smoke filled the entire area of ​​the bandit troops, and the sounds of crying and screaming in pain were mixed together.

The bombardment did not stop and continued to bombard the area where the bandits were.

Leng Yunpeng and his group, as well as Wang Dazhu and his group who were watching from the mountain, were shocked by the overwhelming artillery fire.

They were high above and saw it all clearly.

The bandits' troops below were under such intensive artillery bombardment that they could already imagine that there would be few survivors.

The bombing lasted for 20 minutes before the National Salvation Army stopped the shelling.

The area where the bandit troops below were located was completely shrouded in smoke, and the thick smoke did not dissipate for a long time.

A light breeze blew by, and the smoke slowly dissipated. Some blurry scenes could be vaguely seen in the bombed area.

As more smoke cleared, the bombed area revealed its true appearance.

The originally peaceful earth has become unrecognizable.

A huge bomb crater was blown out on the ground, the soil was rolling and emitting a pungent smell of gunpowder.

The battlefield was filled with a strong smell of blood and burning, which made people feel suffocated.

The bodies of the bandits lay scattered on the ground, some were incomplete, and some had faces that were unrecognizable.

The blood dyed the land red, forming dark red puddles of blood.

Fang Yunpeng stared at the tragic scene below and secretly felt lucky that he did not participate in this battle.

He realized that the National Salvation Army was much stronger than he had expected and was well-equipped.

As the smoke gradually dissipated, Fang Yunpeng decided to send a team down the mountain to investigate the situation.

Before he could give the order to send troops, the roar of machines was heard from the foot of the mountain.

More than 200 tanks and armored vehicles, followed by a large number of infantry, rushed straight towards the bombed area.

Wang Dazhu, Zhao Changshuan and Guo Erzhuang shouted excitedly, "These are the armored regiment and mechanized infantry regiment of our Third Division. They are here to clean up the battlefield."

In the area where the bandit troops were bombed, many bandit soldiers were seriously injured but not dead. They kept screaming there.

The National Salvation Army troops who were cleaning up the battlefield directly fired additional shots, giving the seriously injured but not dead bandits a very quick death.

Looking at the National Salvation Army troops who were constantly firing at the bandits below, Fang Yunpeng and a group of generals felt heartbroken.

Fang Yunpeng and his men could understand using rifles to shoot these seriously injured bandits again. The worst that could happen was a waste of a bullet.

Many machine gunners on tanks and armored vehicles fired at the seriously injured bandits.

This made Fang Yunpeng and the others feel uncomfortable. Isn't this a complete waste of bullets?

The battlefield was cleaned up quickly.

The system's voice also sounded in Lu Tianhao's mind.
