402. As long as people are still there

In fact, Zhang Xiaoman's suspicion was correct. The machine gun position itself was taken away by Ren Xiaosu's shadow. When he set out, he always let his shadow explore the way ahead to avoid being ambushed.

After experiencing some mistakes, Ren Xiaosu learned how to be more careful and cautious.

But this is not something to be particularly happy about, because someone taught him this with blood.

The degree of a person's enlightenment is exactly equal to the depth of his suffering.

The positions of the second company and the third company are a bit far away. The distance between the three companies is always about two kilometers, and the control range of Ren Xiaosu's shadow is only one kilometer, so he can't Help other companies.

At this time, Zhang Xiaoman suddenly said: "Keep going, we are still one day away from Shichuan Town. Don't relax, we may be ambushed again at any time."

The Zong family put refugees and private troops at the forefront. A heavy machine gun could cause heavy losses to the frontline troops of Fortress 178. This is the strangeness of war in the era of thermal weapons.

As Zhang Xiaoman walked, he asked Ren Xiaosu, "I've been quite curious. You don't seem to be too interested in promotion?"

"Well," Ren Xiaosu said, " After this battle, I may go to the Central Plains."

"Wait a minute," Zhang Xiaoman suddenly felt something was wrong: "You said you were leaving Fortress 178 and going to the Central Plains after the battle?"

"Yes," Ren Xiaosu said: "Looking for my family, when you wrote the suicide note the day before yesterday, there was still someone to write to, but now I don't even have anyone to write the suicide note to."< /p>

"Did Zong do it?" Zhang Xiaoman said.

"Yes," Ren Xiaosu said calmly.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaoman suddenly realized that no wonder Ren Xiaosu was so cruel to the Zong family and took the initiative to take on the main attack task. It turned out that he had hatred.

Although Ren Xiaosu did not show any pain at ordinary times, everyone clearly felt Ren Xiaosu's loneliness.

For example, when everyone is sitting around a campfire, Ren Xiaosu will sit alone and look at the stars.

For example, everyone would laugh and chat after eating, but Ren Xiaosu was still leaning against the big tree and looking into the distance alone, not knowing what he was thinking.

The day Ren Xiaosu came down from Guanshan, he looked like a bloody man, and Zhang Xiaoman clearly sensed the dissipating anger in him.

"Did you kill the bandits in Guanshan?" Zhang Xiaoman was talking about the main force of Guanshan that disappeared.

"No," Ren Xiaosu shook his head: "My brother killed him."

Zhang Xiaoman choked for a moment. Ren Xiaosu was already so fierce, and there was someone who could destroy Guanshan in one group. The bandit's brother? What kind of family is this...

Of course, Ren Xiaosu didn't explain too much.

"But if you leave, wouldn't it be in vain that the commander arranges for you to come to the Sharp Knife Company?" Zhang Xiaoman asked doubtfully.

"What's the purpose of the Commander arranging for me to come to the Sharp Knife Company? I requested to come to the most dangerous place myself," Ren Xiaosu asked doubtfully.

"Uh, it's okay," Zhang Xiaoman said. He felt that everyone might have misunderstood. How could a person who was about to leave Fortress 178 after the war become the commander of the fortress?

Or maybe Commander Zhang has other ideas?

A total of three ambush positions were passed along the way, but without exception, all of these machine gun positions were occupied.

Ren Xiaosu suddenly asked: "Zhang Jinglin can't fight, why do you all listen to him?"

This has always been a doubt in Ren Xiaosu's heart, and this group of rough guys in the northwest admires him the most. Although Zhang Jinglin has performed great feats in saving lives, he is not strong enough to lead this group of killers, right?

Zhang Xiaoman shook his head: "I don't understand either, but some people have said that the commander should not have sword energy in him. Killing is what we should do. What the commander has to do is to tell us who to kill. How to kill?"

When Zhang Xiaoman reported to Zhou Yinglong via the communication radio that they had arrived at the target rendezvous point, Zhou Yinglong was shocked: "The Second Company and the Third Company were still blocked on the road, how did you arrive? Didn't you encounter any ambush on the way?"

"The ambush we encountered was eliminated by the mysterious extraordinary person," Zhang Xiaoman said truthfully: "We don't know who did it."

“Isn’t it Ren Xiaosu?” Zhou Yinglong asked.

"We also suspect that he did it, but he has always been by our side," Zhang Xiaoman said: "Batalion Commander, do we have the ability to support the second and third companies?"

"You should first familiarize yourself with the terrain and be prepared to conquer Shichuan Town. When the Second Company and the Third Company join you, other combat orders of the Forward Battalion will also arrive the day after tomorrow," Zhou Yinglong said and hung up the communication. .

Zhang Xiaoman commanded: "The first, second and third squads will rest first. The fourth, fifth and sixth squads will work with me to build simple defenses to prevent the enemies from Shichuan Town from sneak attacks."

It has to be said that no matter how Zhang Xiaoman eats and drinks at the forward base on weekdays and asks for ordnance, on the battlefield he is a qualified company commander, and there is no ambiguity at all about what to do in wartime.

Ren Xiaosu looked at Shichuan Town in the distance through the dense forest, and saw that the abandoned high-rise buildings in the town had collapsed long ago, and all that remained were dilapidated two-story buildings.

Zhang Xiaoman said from the side: "The reinforced concrete that human beings rely on for survival cannot withstand the invasion of time. As long as it is not renovated and rebuilt, the high-rise buildings will collapse within two hundred years, and there will be no more buildings here in five hundred years." There are no buildings, and human cities are far less sturdy than imagined."

"As long as people are still there," Ren Xiaosu said suddenly.road.

Zhang Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "That's right, as long as the people are still there."

Because it is close to Shichuan Town, there can't be a bonfire. Otherwise, he would be used as a target by the artillery in Shichuan Town.

After hearing this reason, Ren Xiaosu expressed his understanding. Then in the middle of the night, when he had nothing to do, he ran far away and lit several bonfires. Sure enough, as soon as the fire started to grow, the shells in Shichuan Town They locked on those piles of bonfires and carried out a round of crazy bombardment.

Zhang Xiaoman and others were sitting behind the bunker, listening to the sound of gunfire and looking confused. They didn't know who the enemy in Shichuan Town was attacking.

After Ren Xiaosu came back slowly, Zhang Xiaoman asked curiously: "What did you do?"

"Oh," Ren Xiaosu explained: "Didn't you say that lighting a bonfire would attract artillery fire?" Well, I went to light a bonfire. I thought it would be good to waste them on artillery shells. The army in Shichuan Town is alone and there must be no ammunition to replenish it. Maybe it can reduce some casualties?"

While Zhang Xiaoman was thinking about it, he didn’t know how Ren Xiaosu’s brain circuit developed.
