Alien Arms Empire

Chapter 420 Chapter 420
"That's how many of you are left?" Cao Fei asked the little boy in front of the team again.

The boy who led the way was called Liu Zhu, and his nickname was naturally Zhuzi, a tacky and common Zheng Guo name that was everywhere.

The boy pushed aside a leaf, skillfully grabbed a small snake by the neck, threw it aside, and said without looking back: "My father and several uncles were all killed by the mirage people. My uncles and elder brothers have all gone to the mountains... I heard from grandpa that there must always be some incense."

"We're here, so you don't have to hide in the mountains."

"There are only a few of you. There are so many soldiers from the Phantom Kingdom... Our Zheng Kingdom's army has been beaten and fled everywhere..." The boy still didn't believe what Cao Fei said, and retorted contemptuously.

Cao Fei didn't say much, just smiled and followed the boy.

"To be honest, I have no plan to go back when I come out with you this time! I want to avenge my father..." The child stubbornly pushed aside the grass in front of him, and then looked back at Cao Fei: "How? Can't let me..."

"No! What kind of war does a child like you fight? In the future, you will have to go to school, learn to write, learn to count, learn to shoot a gun, learn to fight, and learn science... There are so many things to learn." Cao Fei waved his hands. Rubbing Liu Zhu's hair, he smiled peacefully.

He has already seen many scenery, which is a beautiful scenery that he has never seen in Zheng Guo.

In Bunas, he has seen the streets under neon lights, the glass windows full of candies, the buildings taller than the mountains, and the beautiful women who make people drool.

He once watched a 280mm heavy artillery roar during a drill, leveling a mound with one shot.The huge explosion made the ground tremble, and from that moment on he felt that he had nothing to fear.

The giant ship he rode on this journey was all made of steel, several times bigger than the biggest sailboat he had ever seen in his life!Standing on the side of the boat and looking at the sea, he can even touch the wings of seagulls!

Liu Zhu didn't know, but he did. He knew that there were too many things in this world worth seeing and waiting.

So, while rubbing Liu Zhu's head, he continued, "We're here, you won't be bullied anymore..."

"Cut..." Liu Zhu, who didn't believe Cao Fei's words at all, continued to walk forward. For him, these promises were worthless.

Instead of comforting him like this, you might as well hand him a Cyric flintlock, load him with a round, and let him go fight those dwarf goblins to his death.

"There's a roadbed ahead! Go south and you'll find Fengshun City, and go north...you'll find those mirage soldiers." Liu Zhu, who had been hiding not far away after fighting the battle all morning, naturally knew the specifics of those mirage people. Location.

Cao Fei pushed aside the bushes in front of him, and he saw some rough roadbeds. He carefully climbed to the side of the road, looked at the sides, and gestured behind him.

The hunter in camouflage, bent over with a weapon in hand, crossed the road at the fastest speed, and disappeared on the other side of the road in less than a few seconds.

"Please, give me a gun, I want revenge..." Liu Zhu continued to beg, because this might be his only chance for revenge.

"I promised your grandpa that I will bring you back safely! Just follow me obediently! I promise to help you kill a few more Mirage people, how about that?" Cao Fei was not willing to let his child go to the battlefield, and with this little The guide discussed.

As he spoke, most of the soldiers in 1st Platoon had crossed the road.The shooter carrying the heavy machine gun and the deputy shooter holding the tripod crossed the road one by one.

Liu Zhu was a little dazed, obviously he had never seen such a fighting army.He thought that these people would come around and form an formation along the road, and then beat drums and rush towards the camp of the Mirage people from behind.

Who knew that this group of so-called soldiers looked like a group of cowards—they just tried their best to hide in the woods, just like civilians like them.

Seeing this, Liu Zhu was very disappointed. He felt that Cao Fei was lying to him. These people were just stragglers, routs and chaotic troops. They didn't come to fight at all, but came to block the way and rob.

He actually guessed half right!
The 2nd Battalion intends to block the road and rob, and wipe out the mirage army that is about to be defeated and return to Fengshun City in the wild, not letting a single one go.

For the 2nd Battalion, this tactic has the least loss, is the simplest, and has the best effect—as long as these mirage field troops can't retreat back to Fengshun City, then the subsequent capture of Fengshun City will be much easier.

Although they didn't carry heavy weapons, if there were not many defenders left, wouldn't they not need heavy firepower to attack the city?

Well, logically at least it's self-consistent, isn't it?
When Liu Zhu was disappointed, the battalion commander of the 2nd Battalion had already ordered the communication soldiers of the battalion headquarters to shake the handle and charge the telegraph.

With these communication devices that can be contacted at any time, Datang Group's tactical flexibility is naturally much higher than that of its opponents.

A few minutes later, the preparations were ready, and the 2st Battalion, who was waiting for the 1nd Battalion to be in place, began the general offensive that had been prepared for a long time.

It is not an exaggeration at all, the firepower assigned by the regiment headquarters, plus the artillery left by the 2nd Battalion, and the 1st Battalion's own artillery, dozens of cannons of various models and calibers, poured shells on the mirage army in an instant. on the head.

Mianwu Baisui was stunned... It was the first time he had seen such fierce artillery fire, and he couldn't even speak for a while.

Mian Wuyuan standing next to him has seen similar artillery fire, so he is calmer than Mian Wu Baisui, but he is actually not much stronger.

When Yan Wuyuan regained his strength, succeeded Mian Wu Baisui, and commanded the troops to regroup, he found that he seemed to have lost control of the army.

The artillery fire all over the sky caused his troops to hide in the east and west, and none of the signal soldiers sent out came back to report.

He wanted to find out what happened to his troops, but when Mirage returned to his soul at the age of [-], he hadn't investigated it yet.

In fact, he didn't need to investigate clearly, Mirage Centenary had dispatched 3 legions from Fengshun City, with 4500 people and 30 artillery pieces...

In the first and second attack, about 500 people were lost, and then they stood by and waited until now.

There are about 4000 soldiers left who can be used. After this round of artillery shooting, there are at most about 3000 left.

However, this only refers to the troops that can be assembled and found, not to say that these troops can continue to fight.They were all frightened silly by the terrifying artillery fire, and they no longer had the will to continue fighting.

Therefore, Mirage Baisui, who came back to his senses, immediately made a decision to retreat—the enemy's artillery fire was so fierce, he had better retreat quickly.

As long as they retreat to Fengshun City, there will be tens of thousands of civilians serving as human shields, and there will be two garrisons defending the city to replenish their troops. At least they can try to defend it.Facing such artillery fire in the wild, he must not have much confidence.

Ever since, leaving the wounded in place regardless, Mirage's troops from Fengshun City began to retreat.Mirage Wu didn't look back at the age of [-], and handed over the command to Mirage Wuyuan. With dozens of cavalry, he rushed to Fengshun City first, much faster than when he led the troops out.

On the other side, Liu Zhu was once again a little confused about the situation when he heard the muffled gunfire in the distance that made his heart palpitate.

It's not that he has never seen a battle formation. Zheng Guo's troops and Mirage troops have also fought several battles on Dongwan Island, but those battles between square formations are obviously completely different from the battle in front of him.

Liu Zhu didn't even know what kind of battle was a real battle: Could it be that the bloody battlefield he saw before was all wrong?
Before he could figure out these problems, Cao Fei gently nudged Liu Zhu with his elbow: "Here it is! You fired my shot, you can see clearly! The second one on the left!"

Cao Fei has always been the second one on the left in the hunting army. This is a tactical arrangement, which has been agreed a long time ago.

I saw him leaning his K3 rifle against a horizontal tree root, aiming at the cavalry running in the distance, gently pressed his finger on the trigger guard, and then gently placed it on the trigger.

Two seconds later, Cao Fei, who had adjusted his breathing, pulled the trigger, and the K3 rifle backed slightly, and a bullet flew out of the barrel.

Accompanied by crackling gunshots, one-third of the dozens of galloping knights fell off their horses.

Liu Zhu's eyes widened. He had never seen such a neat way of killing people. Just as he was in a daze, Cao Fei had already pulled the bolt of the gun and loaded the bullet back into the barrel.

"Thug chug!" The Maxim heavy machine gun fired, the horse neighed and slowed down, and the goblins on horseback immediately turned on their backs.

Before these goblins figured out what happened, they were sieved by the bullets flying towards them.

Mirage Baisui pulled the reins, and the soldiers guarding him were shot and fell down one after another.He widened his eyes and couldn't see clearly where the bullets came from.

Even if they are to surround and block them, shouldn't they be lined up on the road to block them?He subconsciously guessed the thoughts of the Datang Group troops according to his familiar tactics.

He didn't think about it carefully, didn't the 1st Battalion that blocked his advance also put the line of defense in the middle of the road?
Unfortunately, before he could understand all this, he saw a sudden cold light flash on the mountainside a hundred meters away.

A bullet flew towards Mirage Wu's centenary eyebrow.He leaned back, and before he could let go of the hand holding the horse, he pulled the rein and the horse neighed and raised its front legs.

Mirage Wusui rolled off his horse, and soldiers rushed up to try to help his general.As a result, the soldiers who came forward soon discovered that this mirage was a hundred years old and seemed to be hopeless.

Although his father hoped that he could live to be a hundred years old without disease and disaster when he named him, but now it is obviously impossible-it is a little far away, and it is more than half...

These mirage soldiers didn't have time to retreat, and were soon knocked down by the bullets that swept over them, screaming and following their centenary master.
