Chapter 57 Airport(1/2)
Under the pressure of space, what we pursue is strength, speed and power, and we will kill humans who are also contractors at every turn, let alone those flesh-and-blood plot characters. What we get in exchange is the chance of survival and cold weapons.
Equipment, spar! We do the same job as killers, and we are becoming a cold and ruthless killing machine all year round!"
She turned to Sledge: "The reason why I like Eugene is because his eyes are full of compassion and humanity. Now Sledge is an experienced and qualified soldier, but he is not the young man I like.
."
"Pity and humanity?" Kirk did not rush to retort: "For us, they are indeed very luxurious things."
Wang Han shed tears: "Forgive me for being rude. But after doing the killing job for a long time, sometimes you really lose yourself. We, the contractors controlled by space, although our strength has been tempered through constant adventures and deaths, from the senior ones,
From reincarnations to domain experts, there are also conquerors and immortals below; although our power is getting stronger and stronger, and we can even fight against an army or a fleet, I am becoming more and more envious of office workers in the secular world.
, student family. Although they have no power, they are not in danger. They work and go to class during the day, and at night they can open potato chips, watch movies, and play games. I had such a life before, but I just found it boring and never thought of cherishing it. Now we
Isn't the ultimate goal of struggling hard to live a safe and comfortable life like this? No matter how hard Sledge and the others fight and go through hell, one day they will return to their home, their own manor, and live a safe life again.
A comfortable life and we can never go back!"
She was immediately embraced by a strong arm and held into a warm embrace!
Wang Han's heart seemed to have entered the sunshine from an ice cellar, and he immediately calmed down.
Kirk has such an ability that always allows her to find a safe harbor.
At this moment, suddenly fierce gunfire sounded in the sky!
"Japanese troops are attacking! Get down!" the company commander shouted.
Countless artillery shells exploded next to the advancing American company. Smoke instantly enveloped the battlefield!
Broken limbs, human bodies, and shrapnel were flying in the air, blood was splashed everywhere, death spread rapidly, and the bodies of American soldiers who died tragically were everywhere.
"Quick! Charge forward!" The company commander pointed to a broken wall in the distance: "It's safe there! Take cover!"
His company began to charge.
After the bombardment started, Wang Han tried to rescue Sledge, but was hugged tightly by Kirk.
"Sledge is in danger, he doesn't have the aura of a protagonist," Wang Han struggled.
Kirk shook his head: "You just have to watch."
As the U.S. troops fled, the Japanese artillery fire continued to spread, killing and injuring the U.S. troops.
The location of Sledge's 1st Division of the US Army was near the airport, which had just descended from the mountain. On the ruins of the command platform, the commanding heights of the airport, the Japanese army used infantry artillery and mortars to build a solid defensive position, constantly attacking the fleeing people.
The U.S. military conducts mobile artillery strikes.
Sledge followed the American soldiers and rushed towards the broken wall. The buildings on the island were all reinforced concrete structures and could not be broken by artillery shells. He hid behind the broken wall and was temporarily safe.
Amidst the roar of artillery fire, from time to time, Sledge's comrades were blown away by the artillery fire, losing their limbs or simply losing their lives.
Suddenly, a 110 mm caliber infantry gun exploded less than 20 meters away from Sledge and Snuff, and a huge shock wave knocked Snuff to the ground.
Many American soldiers rushed past Schnauf without looking sideways. Under the intensive bombardment of the Japanese army, if they stayed in this damn place for one more second, they were dancing with the god of death.
After the brutal war, many soldiers were forced to develop a cold heart. When they saw their teammates injured, they would call them "medics" at most and then continue running away. Almost all the warm-hearted soldiers who were willing to stop to rescue the wounded were killed by Japanese snipers and mortars.
Killed them all.
The so-called natural selection, survival of the fittest. Saving people on the battlefield is not helping an old lady cross the street. The most likely possibility is not to gain a friendship, but to be used as a living target by the enemy's snipers and artillery, killing two birds with one stone.
Killed in seconds.
Sledge stopped, showing hesitation.
Snuff used to always bully him in the training camp, and he was a ruffian. But in the tempering of the war, other friends of Sledge, such as Ryder and others, died in the battle one after another. Snuff became a
A partner who talks about everything.
To save or not to save?
Sledge rushed back resolutely and helped Snuff up.
Fortunately, Snuff didn't lose his arms or legs, but he was slightly dazed by the shell. He was supported by Sledge and limped to safety.
Wang Han, who was watching the battle from a high place on the rock, let out a sigh of relief.
Kirk smiled: "It is indeed as you said, we contractors are the most unlucky and pitiful group of people. Although we travel the world and have unlimited scenery, what we actually pursue is the safety and peace enjoyed by ordinary people! In our hands
Stained with blood, including enemies in the plot, contractors, and even my own friends, I have done many things that violate my values and my true heart. I have faced endless tests and dangers, and all I have gained is a moment of peace and elegance.
.but"
He stared at Wang Han: "No matter how digitized our bodies are, no matter how we are forced to change ourselves, as long as our hearts are still this beating fire, just like Sledge turned around in the gunfire, just like I was in
The time you risked your life after you were captured by the conquerors is just like every time our team faces a changing situation in the face of danger, we are still ourselves! We are not lost or disappear. Our adventure will not have an end. Our ultimate goal is to return.
Home!"
He held Wang Han's tearful little face and kissed it: "Believe me, I will take you back home and let you live a peaceful and happy life again! It's better to live like a pig!"
Wang Han nodded vigorously.
"Hey, brother and sister-in-law," Xiaopang's helpless voice came from under the rock: "You can show off your affection, but can't you do it on the rocks on the road where the U.S. military is advancing, in front of tens of thousands of American soldiers and hard-working people like us*
*Silk face, kissing each other?"
Wang Han looked at the countless American soldiers passing under the rock. Seeing the envy, jealousy and hatred in the eyes of the couple, his face suddenly turned red.
Fortunately, Kirk is thick-skinned. He waved his hand and made a head-of-state gesture: "Soldiers! Your girlfriends and wives are waiting for you at home. After passing the airport, you can take today's morning flight home!"
The American soldiers laughed heartily.
In the distance, as long queues of American troops arrived, the battle at the airport became intense.
The Japanese army is determined to defend the airport at all costs. Once the airport is controlled by the US military, the island will fall into the hands of the US military. Although the Japanese army can still rely on mountains and bunkers to compete with the US military, it is just a grasshopper in the autumn.
.
The Japanese commander, General Nakagawa Shu, had more than 60 artillery pieces and dozens of machine guns deployed on the ruins of the command platform, the commanding heights of the airport, and continuously launched salvo attacks on the U.S. military.
Xiaopang looked at the Japanese army's crazy artillery fire and strafing, and murmured: "The US military is really stubborn, won't they go around the airport in a roundabout way? Sledge and Leckie must cross the airport?"
"The plot stipulates" Wu Yue said helplessly: "Do you think these American soldiers are willing to cross the airport and act as living targets in the Japanese artillery fire and machine gun fire? The Japanese army has built a complete defense line. If the US military does not pass through the airport,
Don't even think about occupying this island. If it gets into a tug-of-war, the U.S. military doesn't know how much time it will take. William is under great pressure, and he is determined to rush down the Japanese-controlled airport as soon as possible at all costs. Bombers were deployed first, which would have a negative impact on the headquarters.
Let’s explain later.”
"One general's success can lead to thousands of deaths!" Wang Han said: "For their personal political ambitions, these American soldiers have to risk their lives and cross the airport to occupy the opposite flank position."
Kirk and the others braved artillery fire and rushed to the front line. They heard the commander of Sledge Company deploying the mission: "We must rush through this airport runway that is more than a thousand meters long and attack the Japanese flank. Don't worry! Air Force boys and large-caliber
The naval guns will support us!"
"Damn the large-caliber naval guns!" a soldier shouted: "They are too far away from the airport. Besides, the accidental damage rate is high, so we can't count on it."
"Okay, Leon, you will lead this charge." The company commander said expressionlessly, "Do you have any other questions?"
"What should we do after we charge to the position opposite the airport?" a soldier asked.
"After occupying the Japanese flank positions, open the mortar ports and double the damage they inflicted on us. The other infantry only need to hold on there." The company commander was rather quick. It seems that the US military has already studied this.
"Okay, How Company (H Company), come with me!" The company commander called to the unlucky Leon: "You come with me."
At this time, the sound of a bomber's motor sounded in the air.
More than 30 US bombers began to bombard Japanese positions indiscriminately, covering the main force to break through the airport defense line.
"Will the forester team seize this opportunity to snipe us and the US military in the plot?" Xiaopang asked.
"What do you think?" Wang Han said.
Xiaopang said feebly: "I guess they won't miss this good opportunity. These American troops running over from the airport are simply giving them merit points!"
"And us." Lynn smiled bitterly: "We have to follow."
"Are we going to charge up too?" Xiaopang exclaimed: "This is a senseless suicide charge! The Forester team will definitely not let go of this great opportunity to kill us. Besides, the main mission does not have this item at all, so we don't have to do it at all.
Go and die!"
"The two protagonists of the plot, Leckie and Sledge, were ordered to rush forward." Kirk said: "As the protagonists of the plot, they must not disobey military orders. If we don't protect them, they will definitely die under the sniper fire of the Forester team. You
Are you willing to fail the main mission?"
"Can you use the medal to prevent these two fools from dying?" Xiaopang was unwilling to give in: "In the original plot, there were really not many of the thousands of American troops who could rush to the opposite side of the airport."
Everyone was silent. In the "Pacific War", Peleliu Island was the battle with the most heavy casualties for the US military. In the battle for this island, the airport was the top priority and was the area where the most US military casualties occurred.
But this is the plot arrangement. It is impossible for the two protagonists to disobey military orders. As their protectors, Kirk's team and the Neptune Regiment will inevitably rush forward together to ensure that at least one of the protagonists of the plot survives.
"Charge!" Before Kirk's team could make a final decision, Sledge's 1st Army Division and Leckie's 1st Marine Division launched a charge at the same time. Thousands of U.S. soldiers formed a battle formation and poured out crazily.
Cover the bunker. Swarm towards the opposite side of the airport.
Bombers ravaged Japanese positions, sending shrapnel flying and smoke filling the air.
But after the bombers ran out of bombs, they finally flew away helplessly.
The Japanese army's position was completely silent.
"Were all those Japanese devils killed?" Xiaopang said excitedly as he ran and rushed in front of Sledge.
