When night fell, Jin Lan and the others each took two cornbread buns and hid behind the crude fortifications. These cornbread buns were made by the refugees to stave off their hunger.
Ren Xiaosu told them that the northern bandits might not necessarily come tonight, but everyone had to be prepared. Half of them would sleep in the first half of the night, and the other half would take turns sleeping in the second half of the night. If there were any signs of the enemy, everyone would have to quickly join the battle.
By the time Ren Xiaosu finished briefing them, he could no longer find Yang Xiaojin. "Did y 'all see … ahem, did y' all see your sister-in-law?"
"No," Jin Lan said.
"I saw her heading into the wilderness," Xu Jinyuan said.
Ren Xiaosu nodded. It looked like Yang Xiaojin had gone to familiarize herself with the terrain in advance.
A good sniper on a real battlefield would never cling to a high vantage point. If they were exposed, they would have to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, they would be shot to death by the enemy.
Therefore, snipers had to fight while moving.
Fortunately, Xu Jinyuan said there were no snipers among the northern bandits. In that case, the danger level for Yang Xiaojin would be greatly reduced.
Moreover, Yang Xiaojin had her own advantages.
A sniper rifle was very heavy. If a typical sniper used a large-caliber weapon, the sniper rifle would definitely become a very heavy burden on her as she moved forward.
Some sniper rifles even weighed 20.9 kilograms, which was equivalent to carrying two bags of rice while running in the wilderness. Even an adult man would find it a little difficult to carry that weight.
But Yang Xiaojin was different. She could totally put away her sniper rifle when she retreated. Moreover, supernatural beings had extraordinary stamina and could move very quickly.
If a supernatural being became a top-notch sniper, she would definitely be the most terrifying existence on the battlefield to the enemy.
After eating two cornbread buns, Ren Xiaosu closed his eyes and rested behind the fortifications. To be honest, he also wanted to go into the wilderness as it would be more suitable for him to display his skills there.
But before the bandits on their side experienced a real battle, they could only be regarded as a disorganized mob. If there was no one to stabilize the morale of the troops, perhaps half of them would run away before the battle even started.
Jin Lan went up to Ren Xiaosu and asked softly, "Bro, Sister-in-law's superpower is a sniper rifle, so what's your superpower?"
To this day, Ren Xiaosu was only using pure physical strength to deal with them. There was no need for him to use his superpower at all. Therefore, Jin Lan and the others were guessing what Ren Xiaosu's superpower was.
Ren Xiaosu glanced at them and said, "When the northern bandits come, you will know. Bring that box of grenades to me."
The bandits at the side were stunned. Weren't they talking about superpowers? Why did they suddenly talk about grenades? Was this ability related to grenades?
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu suddenly said, "They're coming! Prepare for battle! The enemy is in the Northwest, not the North! "
Xu Jinyuan glanced at the wilderness. "Bro, where are they?"
The wilderness ahead was clearly pitch-black, so where could the enemy have come from? No one knew how Ren Xiaosu had discovered the enemy.
In fact, Ren Xiaosu had already released his shadow clone at night. As they did not have a scout, Ren Xiaosu could only use his shadow clone as a scout.
So the moment his shadow clone encountered the enemy, Ren Xiaosu knew it was coming. However, he did not expose his shadow clone and waited for the enemy to get closer.
Then Xu Jinyuan saw Ren Xiaosu grab a grenade with his right hand and remove the safety pin. Then he reached his hand into a dark shadow.
The shadow was like a door. When he reached his hand into it, it felt like he had traveled to another time and space.
Meanwhile, Jin Lan, Xu Jinyuan, and the others watched this scene in a daze. They did not know what Ren Xiaosu was trying to do.
In the distance, the bandits were advancing quietly. In order to move stealthily, they even took a detour and changed their route. Then they abandoned their motorcycles and advanced on foot.
As they walked in the dark, the bandit in the front row suddenly saw a hand reach out of thin air in front of him. Then a grenade was thrown at his feet.
The bandit was stunned for a moment. When he realized what was going on, he only had the time to curse out loud.
Right after, Xu Jinyuan and the others heard the sound of a grenade exploding nearly a kilometer away.
Everyone looked at Ren Xiaosu in shock. What kind of power was this? Was he throwing a grenade from afar?!
They were not the only ones shocked. Even the enemy was shocked. The group of advancing bandits did not understand what was going on. They even thought they had stepped on a landmine!
But how could there be a landmine in this valley?!
In fact, the farthest a grenade thrower could throw in was just over 100 meters. For example, the Yang Clan's best record was only 102 meters.
But now, Ren Xiaosu was actually throwing a grenade from a kilometer away?
There was no bunker that could not be blown up in the face of this power, right? But why did this power feel so strange?
At this moment, the enemies in the distance did not know who was attacking them, nor could they see where the attack was coming from. They did not even have a target to fight back against.
All of a sudden, the sound of a sniper rifle shot reverberated through the sky like a thunderclap, like rolling thunder behind thick dark clouds.
The sound of that large-caliber sniper rifle shot could even travel several kilometers!
Ren Xiaosu's grenade had pointed Yang Xiaojin in the right direction, and the grenade's light illuminated her field of vision!
Xu Jinyuan and the others understood. Their sister-in-law had already made her move, but they did not see where Yang Xiaojin was.
Jin Lan and the others roared excitedly. Everyone gripped their automatic rifles tightly. But after waiting for a long time, they did not see any enemies charging at them.
In Jin Lan's mind, the battle should be them waiting for the enemies to come to them. Then everyone would shoot at them, causing blood to splatter and gunfire to fill the air.
After the enemy crumbled, Jin Lan could still roar and chase after them.
It was exciting just thinking about it.
But the reality was that the sound of the sniper rifle kept ringing and the grenades kept exploding. Meanwhile, they were like a group of teammates who only knew how to cheer. After firing for a long time, they did not even see a shadow of the enemy.
As Ren Xiaosu threw the grenades, he used his shadow clone to observe from the side. However, he found it a little strange. There was something wrong with the number of bandits here.
Didn't they say there were more than 600 of them? Why were there only around 200 of them here?!
That wasn't right! Ren Xiaosu whispered to Zhang Yiheng, "Be careful northeast. The enemy might have split up into two groups!"
When Zhang Yiheng and the others heard that, they immediately looked northeast. There were ravines in the valley. If the enemy came from there, they could hide in the ravines and advance, catching them off guard!
As they spoke, Ren Xiaosu had already sent his shadow clone into the battlefield. He saw the shadow clone wielding a black saber rapidly reaping lives in the dark of the night. He had to finish off the enemies in this direction as soon as possible because the enemies from other directions might be arriving soon!
