Operation Autumn Harvest 2

  "Commander, is it necessary to mobilize so many people?" The guard was puzzled as to why the villagers were being relocated now.

  "It's all because of you that we don't need to fight this chapter, let's just surrender directly." Gao Jiancheng helped up an old lady beside him, "Last time when we first arrived on the first day, we were secretly approached by Takagi, I had already set up a scout at Shan Ying's mouth."

  "Hurry up, let's hurry up and transfer all the folks. Hurry up!" Gao Jiancheng supported a big aunt while walking and beckoned to the crowd behind, "Auntie be careful."

  "Report! Company Commander, the enemy's vanguard is just five kilometers away and will enter firing range soon." The guard reported.

  "How much longer will it take for fellow villagers to be relocated to a safe area?"

  "It was all transferred in just half an hour."

  "Alright." Gao Jiancheng thought for a moment, "You guys go ahead and move the villagers first, I'll go scout ahead. Remember to get the villagers to safety, don't come back until you receive news that the enemy has retreated, got it?"

  "Yes."

  "Go." Gao Jian set off immediately for Xiao Wangzhuang's position.

  "What's going on?" Gao Jiancheng lay in the trench and picked up his binoculars to look towards the position, asking Liu Jun beside him.

  "Our scouts have returned and reported that in another kilometer, the troops led by Gao Mu will enter our line of sight." Liu Jun replied.

  "Hmm, it seems that Takagi has also started to use blitzkrieg tactics." Gao Jiancheng put down his binoculars and looked at Liu Jun, "You're a veteran soldier and from the Special Task Force, what's your take on Takagi's move this time?"

  Liu Jun thought for a moment and said, "As for Gao Mu's visit this time, I think there is one thing that can be confirmed, which is to probe. After all, this place is also a strategic location where you can advance or retreat."

  "The entire front line is in a stalemate, and any movement by either side will cause fluctuations across the entire front line. Therefore, we can consider this an attack that both sides tacitly agreed to. Whoever wins will have benefits."

  "Hmm, you've analyzed it well. Let me see if Takagi has made any progress." Kōji looked far away at the opponent they would be facing soon, their old rival and first enemy.

  "Guo Dong ge, I'm nervous." Dog Wa's face was covered in sweat.

  "I am too." Zhao Guotang took a deep breath, and the air was filled with tension.

  "There's nothing to be nervous about. Learn from me." Bao Cheng tilted his head, looking at the two of them with a stalk of grass in his mouth.

  Zhao Guodong and Gouwa also had a scholarly look, with a blade of grass in their mouths, the people around them were all looking at these two new recruits who had never been on the battlefield, no one laughed, including Shi Jinbao.

  "The enemy is coming up, be careful! Don't fire without my order." Gao Jiancheng took out his pistol and aimed at the front, shouting in a low voice.

  "Get ready." Gao Jiancheng gave a low command, his eyes fixed intently on the approaching Gaomu army.

  "What's going on?" Everyone was tense, waiting for the dead to approach, so they could vent their emotions. As a result, Takagi's squad just stopped at the edge of their shooting range, neither advancing nor retreating.

  "What is Takagi Junichiro trying to do?" Gao Jiancheng was also puzzled.

  "Commander, what should we do? This dead tree doesn't attack or retreat, it's really uncomfortable to look at."

  "Don't mind them, I just need to stare at them to death." Gao Jiancheng had no other choice but to do so.

  The scorching sun was overhead, and the entire Little Wang Village had fallen into silence.

  The high wooden team on the other side has been there all along, without any movement, no advance or retreat. The opposite is unclear, and Gao Jiancheng can only lead his own team to confront them, just in case.

  "Commander, this won't work if we keep going like this." The guard ran over to say, "Many soldiers are unable to focus because of the heat and lack of shade."

  At this time, Gao Jiancheng didn't know what kind of idea Gao Muzi had in mind, or else he would be a fool.

  "You go and arrange it, divide the whole team into two shifts, switch every fifteen minutes, I want to see what kind of tricks Takagi is up to."

  Before you know it, it's already gone from noon to afternoon. The two armies are still at a stalemate, with neither side launching an attack first.

  "They're coming." Zhao Guo's gaze was fixed intently on the horizon as more and more heads emerged from the ground, an endless stream.

  "What's going on?" Dogwa was still dazed there.

  "There are so many people." Zhao Guotang was already a bit stunned.

  "Get ready for battle, listen to my command." "Rustle rustle" were all the sounds of pulling rifle bolts.

  The enemy was getting closer and closer, Zhao Guo's palms were sweating, constantly adjusting his shooting direction. Gouwa on the other side looked foolishly at the crowd rushing up, without even pulling the trigger.

  "Hey." Bao Cheng nudged Dawei with his elbow, nodded slightly towards the gun bolt and said in a low voice, "Nothing to be nervous about."

  "Oh." Gouwa's hands began to tremble and he pulled several times before finally getting the gun bolt into the correct position.

  "Fire." Gao Jiancheng fired the first shot.

  Zhao Guodong subconsciously followed his training, aiming at the enemy's head in a three-point line. "Bang" The bullet pierced through his brow from the back of his brain.

  That soldier, staring blankly ahead, his eyes filled with confusion, numbness, and fear. The fresh blood from his brow slowly flowed out, sliding down to his nose, then to his lips. His hand, tightly gripping the gun, began to relax, gradually releasing its hold on the weapon, letting it fall to the ground.

  I've killed someone! Zhao Guotang felt at a loss, the gunfire on the battlefield kept striking his ears, but he didn't hear any sound. His mind was filled with the expression of that soldier after being shot by him - confusion, silence, and fear.

  "What are you doing?" A pair of hands pressed Zhao Guo's head firmly against the back of the fortification, and the dust splashed up by the bullets immediately covered him.

  "Do you want to die?" Liu Jun slapped Zhao Guotang's face fiercely, "Wake up, this is a battlefield, where people always die."

  His face burning with pain, Zhao Guo Dong was slightly startled awake from his daze and stared blankly at the class monitor. "Class monitor, I've killed someone."

  "Remember this from now on. All you have to do is aim and design. Everyone who rushes up in front of you is your target." Another burst of bullets hit the fortification in front, splashing up a cloud of dust. "Get up!" Liu Jun fiercely pushed Zhao Guotang behind the cover.

  The sun sets in the west, and the small squad of tall trees retreats. The new recruit, Egg, who had just killed for the first time, starts vomiting there. Zhao Guotang sits alone with his gun, crouching in the trench, his eyes dull and expressionless.

  Liu Jun walked over and patted Zhao Guozhu's shoulder, "Feeling better?"

  "Monitor, I've killed someone." Zhao Guotang lifted his head and looked at Liu Jun, his eyes unfocused.

  "This is a battlefield, either he dies or you die."
