Tonight's first watch was Su Yuesong and Zuo Ming, after Su Yuesong gave a two-hour political lesson to Zuo Ming, the two went back to sleep. The second watch, Shao Hui and Zhou Yan, sang against each other for two hours before leaving. The third watch, Wang Jianbin and Wu Yan, put down their guns and parted ways happily. The fourth watch, namely Liu Junhao and Li Jinping's watch, something big happened.
An unpolluted starry sky is especially enchanting, the bright stars in the sky easily bring back memories of Andersen's fairy tales from childhood.
Liu Junhao and Li Jinping were sitting in the bunker, chatting and observing the outside. Occasionally, they would lift their heads to gaze at the starry sky. The view tonight was extremely broad, with the snow reflecting the moonlight and illuminating the open area around the base. Wu Yan took a pair of binoculars and carefully examined the surroundings for a while, but didn't find anything suspicious. He then handed over the cigarette Liu Junhao had given him to light up. Just as he was about to do so, a local guard next to them stretched out his hand, also wanting a cigarette. Liu Junhao tossed one to him, and the employee smiled and lit it up before standing up. Wu Yan immediately grabbed his pant leg and made him crouch down. The employee was taken aback but quickly obeyed and squatted down. At that moment, Liu Junhao heard an extremely familiar sonic boom flash by, and as the employee's body ducked into the bunker, his head had already disappeared. A burst of red and white blood rained down on the two of them, covering everything in a bloody mess. The area around them was instantly filled with a strong smell of blood. The two were stunned, and at that moment, Wu Yan's hand was still clutching the employee's pant leg.
"Curved knife, curved knife, District 1-285, 285!" Liu Junhao hid in the blood pool and shouted to the radio in a low voice. District 1 refers to the direction of the main gate, and 285 is the password set by the squad, which means emergency dispatch.
"Damn it!" Wu Yan cursed, quickly turning around with his binoculars to take another look at the distance, but all he saw was still a vast expanse of white snow. "It's the Ghost Shadow Troop! The local organization doesn't have this level of skill!" Wu Yan made this judgment based on the opponent's concealment technology and that one shot just now.
"Hmm...” The two heard a strange noise nearby, and looking in the direction of the sound, they saw a guard who had been frightened by what he had just seen, leaning against a bunker, panting heavily. The two didn't have time to pay attention to him, and Wu Yan raised his binoculars again, trying to find some clues about the enemy.
In the distance, a black gun barrel was patiently searching for signs of people on the city wall. In the empty space between him and the city wall, there were many piles of snow slowly crawling. Although the visibility was relatively good now, it was still night, and Wu Yan's telescope couldn't see these subtle marks at all.
"It was just a 12.7mm sniper rifle shot." Liu Junhao said, lying beside Wu Yan. Wu Yan nodded in agreement. The sound of small-caliber and large-caliber rifle bullets is different, the former is more delicate, while the latter sounds like tearing coarse cloth in front of oneself, with an air of trying to see who dares to block it. Moreover, only a 12.7mm sniper rifle can smash a person's head into powder. This kind of gun has created a terrifying record of sniping people at a distance of 1,200 meters, the target was instantly torn apart, and is still the top of the food chain in the sniping world. The city wall cover is not worth mentioning in front of such a weapon, if the sniper is relatively far away, he can easily pick off the curved knife team members one by one, playing with the battlefield at his fingertips.
The wall cover is now just a thin layer of paper, which can be pierced by flying sniper bullets at any time. Liu Junhao and Wu Yan are currently very insecure, not because of the sniper, but because they can't find the location of the other party, which is also the most frightening place in all wars. The two men gritted their teeth and concentrated on searching, when Liu Junhao suddenly thought of something and asked in a low voice: "The opponent's sniper rifle is so accurate, why not shoot at the cover? He should know that there must be someone inside." "Afraid to expose his position," Wu Yan replied simply with binoculars. Liu Junhao shook his head: "It's not that simple, well-equipped and technically skilled, hiding the muzzle flash is very easy for him, I'm afraid he's suppressing us, drawing our attention!" These words were like a thunderbolt on a sunny day to Wu Yan, who immediately lowered his binoculars, and what he saw made him extremely surprised. There were many snow piles on the familiar ground nearby that had appeared out of nowhere, very close to the city wall. Wu Yan immediately picked up his rifle and aimed at one of the piles from a higher position, while Liu Junhao gestured for him to wait, crouching and running to a shooting hole in the distance to aim at another pile.
"Bang! Bang!" The two of them simultaneously fired a shot and rolled over to change positions. At the same time, an discordant sound appeared in the air, "Boom!" A loud noise shook Wu Yan's shooting. If someone was still there, they might not have just lost their head. At this moment, the corner of the city wall had become a blood-stained ruin, with two people stabilizing their bodies and lifting their heads to check the situation. Suddenly, they heard "Dong! Dong!" Two muffled sounds, Wu Yan quickly pressed down Liu Junhao, "Boom!" Two strong explosions erupted beside them, Liu Junhao was shocked, his rifle fell to the ground, he coughed a few times, and grabbed his rifle to shoot again. The snow piles from earlier had disappeared, replaced by a group of people running towards the base, with several already rushing inside. Liu Junhao leaned against the cover, firing at the people behind him, orange-yellow shell casings fell to the ground, one person fell down, Wu Yan quickly pushed him down, and in an instant, their cover was hit again by large-caliber sniper bullets, large pieces of stone fell on them, the two shook their heads, brushing off dust and stones, covered in blood. "They've broken in!" Liu Junhao shouted loudly.
"Huh?" Wu Yan hadn't heard clearly, the several loud explosions just now had affected his hearing.
Liu Junhao didn't have time to respond, gritting his teeth as he ran to the wall on the opposite side and looked inside. "Bang bang bang!" Several bullets pinned him down, making it impossible for him to lift his head. "Damn your ancestors!" He cursed as he changed positions to prepare for a counterattack. Just then, gunfire erupted in the courtyard, with the Bent Blade Squad and Ghost Shadow Squad already exchanging fire. Wu Yan pressed down on the radio transmitter and shouted: "There are rocket launchers and 0.8 caliber snipers outside! We can't lift our heads up here!"
"The enemy's firepower is too strong, we can't get up for the time being, you must hold on to the top! Don't let the opponent's sniper take it away!" Zhao Zhenghao's voice came from the radio immediately.
"Liu Junhao, you hold the stairs! I'll keep watch downstairs!" Wu Yan put down the radio and said to Liu Junhao. Now they were surrounded on both sides, and if either side faltered, they would face disaster.
Shao Hui was crouched in a corner of the wall, only exposing his eyes and the muzzle of his gun, firing fiercely. The shell casings were ejected like a waterfall, melting the snow around him. The enemy was momentarily stunned, dropping several bodies before hastily seeking cover.
Shao Hui's gun fell silent after firing two clips, and Li Jinpeng, who had just arrived nearby, quickly took over. Shao Hui swiftly replaced the clip with a new one, and at that moment, he saw several black objects flying towards him. "Withdraw!" he yelled, jumping up and running to the back. "Boom!" Several hand grenades exploded behind him, and the massive blast sent a large amount of mud flying towards him. Shao Hui stumbled, covering his radio to report: "The enemy's firepower is too strong! Zone 2 has been lost, I'm withdrawing to Zone 4! Repeat, Zone 2 has been lost!"
At this moment, the situation of Zone 3, which was guarded by Zhao Zhenghao and others, was also very difficult. Zone 3 had important offices and most of the dormitories. The troops were fighting while retreating, and many team members eventually concentrated here to desperately resist. The enemy had more people and possessed heavy machine guns and hand grenades. Bullets swept back and forth in Zone 3 like a snowstorm, shooting through walls and wooden corridors, with debris flying everywhere like snowflakes. With a loud "crack", a load-bearing pillar was hit by several bullets and shattered, the corridor creaked painfully and shook violently. Zhao Zhenghao and others were pinned to the trembling ground, unable to lift their heads, unable to retreat or fight back.
"Kong Huangtian, go and inform all personnel to retreat! We can't hold on for much longer!" Su Yuesong shouted loudly.
Kong Huangtian put away his rifle and left this place with difficulty, rushing to the back to inform personnel to evacuate.
Wu Yan carefully observed through the shooting hole, the courtyard had been fighting fiercely, but outside was still quiet, he never found the hidden ghost shadow killers. Liu Junhao aimed his gun at the stairs, and for a long time, there was no movement, the city wall seemed to be a forgotten corner in this war. He listened to the sound of gunfire below, and couldn't help but move to the inner cover to look down. His position was one of the commanding heights, where he could overlook the entire courtyard scene, he slowly pulled the trigger, and immediately, a gun muzzle below him fell silent, he aimed at another position, just then, a string of bullets came from nowhere and pierced through his cover, grazing his body and flying over, Liu Junhao stumbled backward several steps and fell to the ground, Wu Yan immediately ran over to support him: "How are you?" Liu Junhao spat out the dust in his mouth: "The opponent is not simple, all positions have been locked by them, we won't get through tonight." He squatted down and took a few deep breaths. Just then, he heard several terrifying sounds, "Get down!" Liu Junhao shouted hoarsely and quickly pushed Wu Yan to the side, in an instant, two mortar shells hit the city wall, the huge shockwave pushed the two men far away, Liu Junhao spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and fainted. Wu Yan struggled to open his eyes and saw this scene, thinking of getting up to counterattack with his gun, he moved his body, but found it was no longer listening to him. "Ah!" He let out a long, mournful cry, two tears slowly flowing down.
