All Time Marksman - Chapter 219
The armored tiger tanks moved with minimal speed, heading towards the location of the Black Armored Knight’s forward operating base.
[Radio: Tank Commander,The entire group is in your hands. Are you sure we are going to strike them when the night falls? Over]
[Radio: Don’t question my strategy. Our orders is to attack and make an opening that will pierce that enemy line. That is the plan, and that is what we are going to do. And if we die by their hands, then that means we lack experience and strategy. And we will seek revenge to die in the hands of the enemy that don’t know our worth.]
[Radio: Copy that Tank commander, therefore we want to follow you all the way]
[Eastern Northern border sector]
“So we have captured 5 Lion Pride soldier, and 5 rebel cell minions that were hiding at that building,” Jin said as he was looking at the kneeling enemies that were up against the wall. “What shall we do with them, sir?”
Li Ye asked as he was in front of the squad leader. Jin looked at the support machine gunner of the Red Blood armored Knight and given a nod signal. For a moment Jin said a word and the Red Blood armored support machine gunner aimed his machine gun at the kneeling prisoners. And pulled the trigger in a spray of bullets. Each of the prisoners received 10-20 bullets per body. It splashed the stain of the blood at the wall. The other candidates then saw how vicious a war is.
“We are a group that is walking on a path to fight in this no mercy kind of war. We have sacrificed enough to do that kind of thing. With no hesitation, with no remorse,” Fang Shirong spouted as he saw some candidates feared their squad leader.
Cai Dinxiang smiled and said, “therefore I am still willing to follow the squad leader whenever he goes. I will go. With no questions, I am not blind following, but from him I know I can learn the reality and the true face of war. With no sugarcoating that is being placed.”
But for Li Ye, and the rest, they were doubting the capabilities of the squad leader in terms of killing those who have surrendered. Qi Meili approached Jin, who was far ahead of the group.
“Sir, I don’t see the reason for executing those prisoners.” Jin looked back and stare at Qi Meili’s eyes.
“Remember, we are in a war that those people can kill us back if they have the guns and weapon necessary. We are not making mercy a key for them to get us back and kill us. Those people they are also merciless. Looked at the people we freed. You see how they starve to death. Those people who do research on people are not good people. And they don’t earn my respect and that’s why I let them be killed.”
Qi Meili stare blankly at what she had heard from Jin. It was. Different, it was new. She can’t reply nor speak words from her mouth.
It was like zipping because of a slap of reality in front of her face. The words were not for her, but it was an explanation with a heart with feelings. The feeling of care for their group, and if the candidates did not see, there are still few who believes in the squad leader decisions and those are the first one who followed.
Han Zian walked towards the bodies and prayed over the bodies, and it burned.
“Alright, we need to move. We are returning to the Black Armored Knight forward operating base. We are going to coordinate with them and also to assist them for now.”
Jin paused and looked at the detonator he was holding and then looked back up and stare at Qi Meili and said, “If I am correct, we are under the General Directorate. Qi Meili, how was the contact with the General Directorate do they give our mission objective?”
“Sir, the general Directorate did not give us any mission objective. Their last order was for us to stay vigilant and don’t regroup with the Black Armored Knights that are stationed in the western sector.” Qi Meili responded to Jin’s questions.
“Okay, for now we are going to cancel the regroup because we have the orders from the General Directorate. For now, we are going to move north and check if there are few buildings that we can make as a garrison.”
After that speech, Jin pushed the button. A massive explosion erupted and the whole underground that was far from them created a sink hole. Jin looked back as the explosion created light in the night. “I guess we have their attention now. Let’s move!” Jin and the others quickly runs far from the site of the explosion.
[Old Purple Armored Knight forward operating Base]
“What is that explosion, officer?” the hooded figure was seated at the end of the table said. “Sir, there is an explosion where the communication command of the entire force is located. And from what we are concluding is that the one that exploded was our communication command at the same time the facility where we produced the code name RAVENOUS.” The hooded figure clenched his fist and his gaze became different.
Half of the room suddenly became cold. And the hooded figure’s breath could were creating a fog of smoke. But then the hooded figure could hold out his temper.
“Contact the armored tiger tanks, tell them that they resumed their attack tomorrow morning, just positioned themselves near the compound of the enemy and don’t attack. I don’t like the feeling that they are going to attack by tonight.”
“It will be done, sir. I will relay that to the communication officers,” the Lion pride officer saluted before leaving the room. And when the Lion pride officer left the room, the hooded figure slammed his hand on the table.
“Dammit, who the hell destroyed my plans? That will be the secret weapon that the guild master wants. Now I am out of choices. I need to report this to the vice guild leader to help me and lend more support to this fight.” The hooded figure stood up and in the dark corner of the room, a silhouette appeared.
“You asked of me, My Lord” a deep voice of a man echoed throughout the room. The hooded figure turns around. “I never thought you can play with the dark, my shadow user subordinate”
“That is what I am tasked for, my Lord, and that is what I shall do,” the Shadow user replied to what the hooded figure, have asked of him.
“I want you to find the people who destroyed the facility and after that you need to contact the vice guild leader and tell the vice guild leader that we need more people on the ground. The forces that the guild gave me were all dead and almost half of the forces we had also got killed. Tell him we need more to capture this crappy city.”
The hooded figure smiled and turns around as he saw eyes that were blazing red.
“It will be done according to your liking my lord” and from that the shadow user vanished into the air.
[General Directorate office of operation]
“General, we suggest that we send in more troops after their attack on the Black Armored Knight FOB. We are going to attack them tomorrow. We can have our forces dropping from the sun and we can see clearly what is happening on the ground. I can assure you, General, those rebel cells are now conscious because they were held back by our main forces.” One of the staff officer of the general trying to explain what is the importance of a delayed attack.
After the explanation, the head communication officer stood beside the General. The General looked at the Head of communication officers.
“Sir, I am here to report that the SQUAD have destroyed the communication command of the rebel cell forces on Jelkala, as they have infiltrated and destroyed it when they are still under the command of the tower. Because it was the tower, the SQUAD had become a single entity that was not under either the Purple or the Black Armored Knight commanders. And because of that, their squad leader. Named Ru Jin moved his forces towards their last location, which is the Eastern and Northern Sector of Jelkala and there they have found a tunnel heading towards the communication command of the rebel cell minions. As of now, sir, their orders were not to regroup and not to attack any forces as of the moment.”
“So, all in all, they did well. They made an enormous impact on the enemy, communication which now we can say that the enemy has no plans o attacking the Black Armored Knight forward operating base because their communication is hard to reach the other scattered forces. We can attribute this to the old trick divide and conquer,” the General said as the other staff officer were looking at the General.
“The old trick of the book General are we using the SQUAD as the sword that will help us defeat the other small size forces scattered across the whole city?”
The left staff officer of the General suggested as while looking at the hologram that was in front of them. The head communication officer saluted at the General and turns around, going back to his position.
[North-Eastern sector]
All of them entered the APC once again and headed north to check if there are buildings that can suffice their group for shelter and defense. And while they were travelling, Li Xiaosheng peeked through the small hole window of the APC.
“The buildings are all high. There is no kind of building here that is like in the western sector. Are all people here in the Eastern and Northern Sector like this, its like full of condos and there are not much of a defensive building we can use”
Li Xiaosheng said as he raised his sword and put it on his shoulder while the group was inside of the APC.
