Zhang Xiaoman was looking at Ren Xiaosu like he was looking at a piece of treasure.
He was a man who had fought in battles, so it only took him a moment to understand how important the ability to accurately drop a grenade within a kilometer was for overcoming a difficult situation.
He could attack the machine gun positions, street battles, and even pillboxes on high ground without any fear. The enemy's land defenses were as fragile as a piece of paper in front of Ren Xiaosu!
Zhang Xiaoman said excitedly to Ren Xiaosu, "From now on, if anyone tries to snatch a grenade from you, they'll be taking my life as well!"
Ren Xiaosu was stunned. "That's not a good idea, is it?"
As he said that, he stuffed a second grenade behind a dark window. The Soong Clan soldiers who were preparing to fire their machine guns were blown out of the window by the grenade.
Zhang Xiaoman asked, "Xiaosu, where do you keep all these grenades? I don't see you carrying any with you. Does this count as one or two superpowers?"
Ren Xiaosu explained in a serious tone, "I only have one superpower, and it's to open up a black spatial door. Behind the door, I can even open up a small space to store things."
To be honest, Ren Xiaosu felt this explanation was very unreasonable. After all, the Shadow Door did not have the ability to open up a spatial door.
However, supernatural beings might not even understand what superpowers were. No matter how unreliable it was to fool normal people, they would still believe it.
After all, there was no need for logic when it came to superpowers.
Zhang Xiaoman was stunned by this explanation. He called to the second and third platoon commanders and said, "Remove all the grenades you're carrying and give the TNT grenades to Ren Xiaosu. We'll move towards the artillery. Ren Xiaosu, blow up those artillery pieces!"
Ren Xiaosu had already accumulated more than a dozen boxes of grenades from the bandit lair, with each box containing 20 grenades. Meanwhile, the soldiers of the Razor Sharp Company were only allowed to carry a standard three grenades per person, which were distributed by the Supply Department of Fortress 178.
There were 184 people in the Razor Sharp Company. Excluding the platoon that remained at the rear, there were still 154 people at the front line, and they had several hundred grenades.
Therefore, they were all gathered around Ren Xiaosu. Ren Xiaosu took a look at the storage space and felt his scalp go numb.
The Razor Sharp Company sneakily advanced through the ruins. Whenever they encountered a place where the enemy might be hiding, Zhang Xiaoman would remind Ren Xiaosu to blow it up from afar.
Second Company and Third Company, who were also infiltrating Shichuan Village, could only watch helplessly as the Razor Sharp Company left them in the dust.
Second Company and Third Company's mission was to provide cover for the Razor Sharp Company's flanks. But seeing how the Razor Sharp Company did not seem like they needed any cover at all, and the entire village of Shichuan Village was filled with the sound of grenades, what was surprising was that the Razor Sharp Company did not even encounter a single decent enemy!
What was going on?!
The entire village of Shichuan Village had a depth of six kilometers, but the Razor Sharp Company had only used half an hour to advance 500 meters!
The original plan was to take down Shichuan Village in half a month. But now, the Razor Sharp Company would probably be able to break through it in just two or three days!
However, Zhang Xiaoman was not greedy and rash. The enemy on both flanks were still there. If Second Company and Third Company could not keep up with their progress, they might very well get surrounded by the enemy in Shichuan Village.
But the problem was that they did not know if there were any snipers in Shichuan Village, nor did they know if there were any traps hidden underground.
Therefore, it was better for them to rendezvous with the other two companies before they could continue advancing.
Zhang Xiaoman raised his arms and gave a call. He suddenly changed his route and headed towards Second Company to provide support. Ren Xiaosu was in charge of blowing up the enemy, while they were responsible for providing cover fire for Ren Xiaosu. They also had to ensure that all the enemies in the buildings they passed through were killed.
Although some of the enemies had been blown up by the grenades, they were still determined to fight to the death with the Razor Sharp Company. If they got ambushed by the enemy at this time, that would be truly disgusting.
What was disgusting was not how many people would die in a tough battle, but how their own carelessness would cause the deaths of their comrades.
The former was unavoidable, while the latter was a matter of attitude.
Second Company was still worrying about the machine guns hidden behind a window at an intersection. Suddenly, the inside of the window exploded, and the enemy and the machine gun were blown out of the window together.
When the commander of Second Company looked up, he saw Zhang Xiaoman waving at them. "Keep up, keep up! We're going to reinforce Third Company again!"
The soldiers of Second Company muttered, "What does he think urban warfare is? How can he come and go as he pleases?!"
In the wee hours of the morning, the Razor Sharp Company, Second Company, and Third Company finally met up in an empty building. The soldiers of the Razor Sharp Company had set up their heavy machine guns upstairs and were on guard. Downstairs, Zhang Xiaoman was having a meeting with the commanders of Second Company and Third Company. "Hand over the remaining TNT and grenades you have to us."
The commander of Second Company immediately became unhappy. "Hand them over to you? Then why the hell are we still fighting?! "
Meanwhile, the commander of Third Company was worried. "We're all hiding in this building's facade. What if the enemy fires at us? Won't we all be wiped out?"
"Don't worry." Zhang Xiaoman said calmly, "Our Razor Sharp Company has already destroyed all the artillery in Shichuan Village!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The commander of Second Company said with a dark expression, "The artillery positions were at least 700 meters away from here. Tell me, how did you manage to destroy them?"
"It's a military secret. How can I tell you?" Zhang Xiaoman said with a smile, "I didn't gather y 'all here for any other reason. Y' all should've seen how fierce our Razor Sharp Company is. Grenades are divine weapons in our hands, so it's a waste to leave them in your hands!"
The commander of Second Company thought to himself, 'It wasn't easy for Zhang Xiaoman to gather all of us together. So it's only because he wanted us to ask for our weapons.'
At this moment, they had already advanced about two kilometers into Shichuan Village. There were still a lot of enemies to the north, and there would be a lot of tough battles to fight. Therefore, Zhang Xiaoman got Ren Xiaosu to calculate the number of grenades they had and realized it was still not enough.
The commander of Third Company rolled his eyes and suddenly said, "Zhang Xiaoman, tell me honestly, what do you want these grenades for? I saw that the enemy's machine gun had already been destroyed before your people even arrived. What the hell was that all about? "
Zhang Xiaoman turned around and looked at Ren Xiaosu. When he saw Ren Xiaosu nod, Zhang Xiaoman said, "Ren Xiaosu's superpower allows him to throw a grenade anywhere within a kilometer, and the error won't be more than a meter! Y 'all get it, right? Give us the grenades and let our Razor Sharp Company lead the way. When the time comes, we'll all share the credit! "
The commander of Second Company was still unwilling. "If we give you all the grenades, how are we supposed to —"
Zhang Xiaoman suddenly interrupted, "Xu Haichen, you better think this through. We're in a war now, and the machine gun bullets on the battlefield don't have eyes. Is Second Company's mission more important, or the lives of your soldiers more important? Besides, if you give us the grenades and let our Razor Sharp Company lead the way, we can still complete our mission of taking Shichuan Village! "
The commander of Second Company, Xu Haichen, was conflicted for a long time. In the end, he sighed and said, "Alright, we'll give it all to you! We won't share the credit with you. Whatever the truth is, that's what it is. Our Second Company isn't going to eat leftovers like that. "
Zhang Xiaoman chuckled and gave him a thumbs up. "Good, Second Company is very strong-willed."
After that, Zhang Xiaoman turned to look at the commander of Third Company. "Is Third Company also so strong-willed?"
The commander of Third Company felt like choking. "Zhang Xiaoman, don't fucking take it for granted!"
