Area C, Highland 212.
Thump thump.
Gao Cheng walked along the trenches dug by the engineering company and checked the layout of the various places.
"Captain, that thing is here again.”
Shi Jin raised his hand and pointed at the sky in the three o'clock direction.
A small black dot appeared there and was rapidly flying towards Hill 212. It looked like an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft.
"It's like a fly. It's so annoying. Shoot it down for me.”
Gao Cheng snorted.
"Company commander, we don't have anti-air missiles, how can we fight?”Shi Jin was helpless.
Gao Cheng pointed at the 85 sniper rifle in the hands of a soldier next to him and said," Don't you have that?”
Shi Jin's mouth twitched." Captain, you must be joking. That thing isn't big and it flies fast. How can you shoot it down with a sniper rifle?"”
"I remember someone shot it down. It seemed to be someone from the Iron Fist Regiment of the Southeast Military Region.”Gao Cheng muttered.
"Then he must have stepped on dog shit."
Shi Jin replied, then asked," Company commander, it's flying like this. Our arrangements have been seen. It'll be difficult to fight later."”
"Isn't it just an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft? They have high technology, but we also have our own methods.”
Gao Cheng snorted." Go, pick up some branches and weeds to start a fire. Use the smoke to block their reconnaissance and also disrupt their snipers. Then, have everyone wear gas masks.”
It was a pity that there were no smokescreens. Otherwise, no matter whether it was an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft or a manned reconnaissance aircraft, it would be useless even if it was a satellite.
"In this case, our vision will be affected. Those guys will be able to close the distance very quickly.”Shi Jin was a little worried. Gas masks were standard, but the problem was that the smoke would also block their own vision.
"Don't tell me you think that we can fight them head-on with our marksmanship from a long distance.”
Gao Cheng said as he lit a cigarette.
"..."
It made sense. There was no way to refute it.
The previous battle had already shown that their marksmanship was far inferior to those guys, especially their snipers, who could be said to be god-like.
And the closer the distance, the smaller the gap would be, because it would be more accurate. It was like hitting a three-hundred-meter target and a hundred-meter target. The difficulty was completely different.
"Hurry up and do it." Gao Cheng handed Shi Jin a cigarette.
"Thank you, Company Commander."
After taking it happily, Shi Jin turned around and led his men to decorate.
"You guys, dig deeper over there.”
"Yes."
"Set up the machine guns outside."
"Yes."
Gao Cheng continued to inspect the layout of the engineering company, making some changes from time to time.
This Earthwork Technique was the Fire Country's signature magic weapon.
It wasn't like what many people thought, where they just needed to dig a trench. They also needed to coordinate with the troop-hiding hole, observation post, shooting port, anti-slope position, tunnels that connected various places, and so on.
If it was a large-scale fortification, they would have to dig toilets, health centers, and so on.
Just like how the Fire Country had fought against those foreign devils, their weapons and equipment were not good enough. In the face of the enemy's superior firepower, fortifications played a huge role.
When the foreigners were firing their artillery shells, they would stay in the Armament Cave and wait for the people to rush over. The effect was without a doubt because the Fire Country had won.
Normal officers would not be able to come into contact with the truly profound layout of a battle formation. In his previous life, Gao Cheng was a genius commander and had learned it when he was studying in the military academy.
A few minutes later.
Shi Jin led Xu Sanduo from Class 3 and the rest of the group to start fires all over the camp. They spread some dried grass and leaves on the ground, and the smoke suddenly curled up.
"Hey, cook, did you bring any potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn cobs, and so on? Put some into the fire to fill your stomach.”Gao Cheng called out.
Everyone from the Seventh Company was speechless.
This was a war. Those who didn't know better would think that they were out for a picnic.
However, when they heard this, the tension in their hearts eased a lot. Gao Cheng's company commander was so calm and still thought about eating. He was confident.
"Captain, those guys are coming.”
The first squad leader came to report.
"Alright."
Gao Cheng nodded and quickly returned to the main camp.
After the previous battle, the 7th Company had lost some of their members, and there were less than 100 people left. The engineer company had other missions and had already left.
Clearing his throat, Gao Cheng swept his gaze across everyone present and said," Look at all of you. Isn't it just a war? What's there to be nervous about? If you survive, you'll make a contribution and bring honor to your ancestors. If you die, you'll be a hero. You'll be the center of the ancestral hall. You'll definitely earn and not lose."”
"Ahem."
Hong Xingguo, who was standing next to him, choked. Shouldn't he say something to boost morale at this time?
"The captain is right."
"At that time, we can even burn a few more beauties.”
"Yes."
Shi Jin and the others all laughed, and the tense atmosphere was instantly swept away.
This was the effect that Gao Cheng wanted.
Steel Seven Company's bloodlust had long been integrated into his bones, so he didn't need to say anything. On the battlefield, the most important thing was to relax, especially for new recruits.
"Now, put on your gas masks and set up your observation posts.”Gao Cheng began to give orders.
"Yes."
Everyone immediately took action.
"Shi Jin."
"Yes."
Hearing the voice, Shi Jin quickly turned around.
"Come closer."
Gao Cheng waved his hand.
"Yes."
Shi Jin went up to Gao Cheng.
Gao Cheng whispered into Shi Jin's ear and quickly gave a few instructions.
"Captain, this..."
Shi Jin's expression changed.
"What this, how can there be no deaths in war? The situation has already become like this. Only by winning will the sacrifices and efforts not be in vain.”Gao Cheng patted Shi Jin's shoulder.
"Yes."
Shi Jin responded, but he looked troubled.
"Go ahead."
"Yes."
After saluting, Shi Jin turned around and left quickly.
"Company commander, your gas mask."
"Alright."
Gao Cheng also put on the gas mask handed over by the messenger next to him. Then, he lay down on an observation spot. He had to keep an eye on it personally.
。。。
On the other side, Old A's 1st Squadron quickly rushed over. When they saw the smoky scene, they were immediately dumbfounded.
"F * ck, what are they doing? Barbecue?”
"I can't see anything clearly in such a big smoke.”
A few officers muttered.
"Barbecue my ass. This is a drill. If you mess around, you'll be court-martialed.”
Squadron Leader Zhao Ke snorted and then analyzed," Their company commander is also a capable person. He actually thought of using this method to deal with our unmanned reconnaissance aircraft and snipers.”
This was something he had not expected.
However, the effect was very good. Highland 212 was only so big, and the fire and smoke did affect their reconnaissance.
"From the previous reconnaissance, they have built quite a number of fortifications.”the officer said.
"It seems that he wants to have a duel with us in a crude way."
Zhao Ke shook his head and said," Unfortunately, it's useless. Without the tanks, what's the difference between staying in the camp and a toothless tiger? At most, it'll be a little troublesome."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and looked at his watch." Everyone, put on your gas masks. We'll attack on time in five minutes. We'll fight for a wave and end this drill at night. We'll go back and eat roasted whole sheep.”
"Yes."
Everyone responded and began to prepare for the final attack.
Time ticked by, and five minutes soon passed.
"Yes."
Zhao Ke gave the order to attack on time.
A battle that was destined to shake the entire army began.
