Warlords: Rise of the System

Lu Tianhao has become accustomed to the late arrival of the system.

"Ding! Killed one enemy company commander, two platoon leaders, one deputy platoon leader, seven squad leaders, and 83 soldiers. A total of 1170 points were obtained."

The battlefield was cleaned up quickly, and the injured and bandaged enemies were left there. Lu Tianhao and his troops left quickly.

This time, fifty or sixty rifles and thousands of bullets were seized, and Lu Tianhao stored them all into the system space.

Lu Tianhao's points returned to more than 4000 points.

Less than half an hour after Lu Tianhao and his team left, a large number of enemy troops arrived at the checkpoint.

There were four to five hundred people who came this time. When they saw the wounded soldiers at the checkpoint and the destroyed fortifications, they knew they were too late.

The officer in charge walked up to a wounded man and asked loudly, "What on earth is going on?"

The wounded soldier cried, "Captain, the enemy we are blocking has artillery.

After a round of bombardment, more than half of our company was killed or wounded. Apart from some brothers who escaped, we were the only ones left."

The regiment commander looked at the wounded soldiers. They were all those who could survive, but there was not a single seriously injured one.

"Who bandaged your wounds? Why didn't you see any seriously injured people?"

The wounded soldier said timidly, "Our wounds were bandaged by the enemies who attacked us.

All the seriously wounded were shot dead by them.

Their superiors said that these seriously injured soldiers could not be saved, so it would be better to give them a quick death instead of suffering.

The team leader had a gloomy face and didn't say another word.

The enemy they were trying to stop were vicious and cruel, but they also bandaged the wounded. What kind of army were they?

The staff officer asked, "How many people are there in this group? What are their weapons and equipment?"

The wounded soldier replied, "I didn't count them carefully, but there should be three or four hundred people. They are well-equipped. Everyone carries a new gun, and there are also quite a few light machine guns."

The regiment commander and the staff officer both nodded. They already knew about the weapons and equipment of this group of enemies, and it was just a matter of confirmation.

The staff officer turned to the regiment commander and said, "Commander, this group of enemies is not easy to deal with. We have only found out that they are well-equipped with weapons and have many machine guns.

However, we did not find out that they had any artillery. Judging from the bombing of our fortifications, the other side had quite a few artillery.

There are only four or five hundred people left in our regiment, and we don’t even have all the guns we are equipped with.

If we were to intercept three or four hundred well-equipped troops with artillery, we would be sending ourselves to our deaths."

The head of the regiment sighed, "Is this an order directly issued by the Marshal's Office, asking us to hold the enemy back at all costs?

If we disobey orders, we will be punished."

The staff officer said slowly, "Captain, this is all we have left. Once we use it up, will the Marshal leave us a position without soldiers?"

The team leader was in a dilemma. It would be wrong to pursue now, and it would also be wrong not to pursue now.

The staff officer spoke again, "Captain, we just need to follow them slowly.

As long as they stay in our sight, we can leave the attack on this group of enemies to them once reinforcements arrive."

The team leader thought about it and decided that this was the most appropriate method now.

The regiment commander immediately gave orders, asking the scouts to quickly catch up with the group in front. He told the scouts to follow them from a distance and not to reveal their whereabouts.

The regiment commander left some people behind and asked them to send the wounded back. He and the staff officer led the team and slowly followed the direction in which Lu Tianhao and the others left.

Lu Tianhao led the team on a quick march, hoping to find a secret place before dark, set up camp and rest for a night.

All the soldiers have been trained and are very strong in terms of physical fitness.

This time they marched for fifty or sixty miles, and it was not until it was completely dark that they found a small flat hill.

The area of ​​this small hill is about ten acres. The reason why Lu Tianhao chose to set up camp here is because this small hill is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

For dinner, we had food exchanged from the system.

After the tents were set up, patrol teams and sentries were arranged, and the others quickly went into the tents to rest.

During the night, except for some minor noises during the changing of guards, the whole night was peaceful.

Lu Tianhao slept soundly and slept until dawn.

By the time Lu Tianhao walked out of the tent, the others had already tidied up their tents and were waiting for him to take them away.

Just then, Atsuko and Gousheng ran over.

Seeing how anxious they both were, Lu Tianhao felt something was wrong.

Dunzi spoke first, "Captain, we are surrounded by the enemy."

Lu Tianhao quickly came to the edge of the high ground and looked around, but found no enemies.

Gousheng spoke up, "Captain, don't look at it anymore. The fortifications they built are a bit far from us and cannot be seen from here.

If they had built fortifications near us, we would have discovered them long ago, and they wouldn't have waited until daybreak for our scouts to discover them."

Lu Tianhao asked, "Have you found out how many troops they have?"

Gou Sheng replied, "We haven't found out the exact number, but there are several hundred people at each defense point. They definitely outnumber us."

Lu Tianhao also felt a little angry. Marshal Luo was forcing him to kill his troops.

Since there was no choice, Lu Tianhao did not make any choice and prepared to fight all the way to let Marshal Luo broaden his horizons.

How could the fortifications built in one night withstand the bombardment of artillery shells?

It seems that this time, we have to give them a hard blow and let them experience what intensive bombardment feels like.

No matter what, the soldiers had to fill their stomachs first. A large number of hot meat buns and soy milk were exchanged so that the soldiers could have a full meal.

After eating and drinking, Lu Tianhao continued to lead the team towards his hometown.

Zhang Cheng's company was at the end, and a number of scouts were sent out from the rear. If the enemy pursued them, the company would act as the rearguard and block them.

The team quickly arrived at the enemy's defensive position in front.

Lu Tianhao did not launch an attack on the enemy's position immediately.

In order to get back to his hometown as soon as possible, Lu Tianhao decided to have a good talk with the other party first. It would be best if the issue could be resolved peacefully.
