In modern warfare, there were too many uses for gasoline and diesel. Without gasoline and diesel, mechanized equipment like tanks, trucks, and off-road vehicles would not be able to function. How were the tanks supposed to move? Were they supposed to be pushed around by the soldiers of the armored brigade?
So when this suggestion was made, the eyes of everyone in the Razor Sharp Company lit up. Jiao Xiaochen said, "I'm guessing that the Soong Clan's attention has already been drawn to us. It won't be easy for them to attack Stronghold 144, but since we can move around at high speed, we can definitely move to other locations quickly."
Zhang Xiaoman felt like he could already see the light at the end of the tunnel. "That's right. If we cripple the Soong Clan's mechanized troops, I won't accept it even if that old bastard Commander Zhang doesn't award me the Nebula Medal!"
Everyone looked at the arrogant Zhang Xiaoman in silence. Zhang Xiaoman touched his face and said, "Ahem, I'm getting too arrogant."
Zhang Xiaoman was a typical hooligan in the army. Ren Xiaosu said, "We haven't destroyed the oil transmission line yet. But since we're leaving, we'll have to bring some food with us. Who knows if it's easy to find food in the north? After that, we'll look for the oil refineries in the north and destroy them!"
The next day, the Razor Sharp Company set off. Since they had already used the steam locomotive, Ren Xiaosu did not need to hide it anymore.
In this war, Ren Xiaosu was no longer holding anything back. Instead, he was thinking of ways to make the best use of all his abilities so that he could live up to his determination for revenge.
In the morning, the Razor Sharp Company, who had driven the steam locomotive early in the morning to ambush the convoys, were bored out of their minds. But before the convoys could arrive, they heard the sound of tracks rolling on the ground.
The sound rumbled from afar like heavy armor galloping on the ground. Ren Xiaosu wondered, "What's that sound?"
"That's fucking tanks." Zhang Xiaoman was shocked. He picked up his binoculars and looked carefully at the troops that had just appeared on the horizon. "Why are there mechanized troops here? Don't they need to fight at Mt. Wuchuan? Or is it that our information is too outdated? Did something happen on the battlefield? "
Fu Rao muttered, "Could it be that we've already been defeated?"
The Razor Sharp Company fell silent for a moment. This speculation actually made a lot of sense. After all, if the war had not ended yet, how could this armored brigade suddenly appear at the rear?
From the looks of it, the armored brigade's strength was well preserved.
"That's impossible." Zhang Xiaoman flatly denied it. "No matter how powerful the Soong Clan is, we have so many people at Fortress 178. How could they have been defeated so quickly? They're here to attack us! "
Puff!
Ren Xiaosu, who was drinking water from a military canteen, couldn't help but spit it all over Zhang Xiaoman's face. Zhang Xiaoman wiped his face and said unhappily, "What's wrong?"
"An armored brigade fighting against an infantry company?" Ren Xiaosu was shocked, but he could not figure out why this armored brigade would appear here. "Has the Soong Clan gone mad?"
Their Razor Sharp Company had only defeated several companies of the Soong Clan, a convoy, and several low-ranking officers. They had even eluded the recon battalion for two days.
'Alright, even though it's a little overboard, surely you don't have to bring an armored brigade here to attack us, right?
Is this necessary? Huh? Is this necessary? Are you afraid of us?! '
"What should we do now?" Zhang Xiaoman looked at Ren Xiaosu.
"What's there to fight?" Ren Xiaosu said. If a tank shell were to hit a steam locomotive, who knew how painful it would be? He did not even know if he could withstand it.
"Retreat, retreat. If this armored brigade is really here to attack us, it'll be a great achievement for us if we can lure them away from the main battlefield." Zhang Xiaoman did not panic. Instead, he got a little excited. "Let's head north and attack the oil refineries!"
…
The Soong Clan's headquarters had just come up with their next battle plan. The previous plan had to be changed because Fortress 178's troops had suddenly gone crazy and started attacking them relentlessly. This put a lot of pressure on them.
What was supposed to be a probing period between the two sides turned out to be as intense as a final battle.
This was Fortress 178's way of buying time for the Razor Sharp Company so that the Soong Clan would not deploy more troops to the rear to deal with them.
And they really succeeded. The Soong Clan's frontline commander, Zong Ying, called Zong Wu three times a day to ask Zong Wu to bring the armored brigade back. In the end, Zong Wu ignored him. Zong Ying was so angry that he pissed himself!
He was furious!
He wished he could tell Zong Wu, "I'll make up for all the gold you lost. Hurry up and bring the armored brigade back!"
At this moment, the generals at the Soong Clan's headquarters knew that Zong Wu would probably leave the Soong Clan after capturing the person who stole his gold. Or, he would form a new consortium after splitting his territory.
After all, Zong Wu had an army under his command. That was the only way he could survive in this chaotic world.
But would the Soong Clan let him off just like that? Zong Ying had sent two supernatural beings to hunt down the Razor Sharp Company. However, those two supernatural beings had another mission, and that was to kill Zong Wu immediately after the mission was completed in case he took the armored brigade away with him.
Moreover, if Zong Wu was not killed, how was Zong Ying going to establish his authority in the future? How was he going to answer to the big shots of the Board?
"Zong Wu definitely won't be returning to Mt. Wuchuan. We'll have to think of another way," Zong Ying said with a dark expression.
But at this moment, a staff officer reported, "The troops from Fortress 178 at the rear suddenly destroyed three oil refineries in a day!"
Zong Ying jumped to his feet. "Destroyed what?"
"Oil refineries … But there's no need to worry, Commander. Those were all canola and edible oil factories," the staff officer quickly explained.
Zong Ying heaved a sigh of relief. "Why the fuck did Fortress 178 destroy those factories? So that we wouldn't have to eat any oil? Or do they have another motive? "
One of the generals hesitated for a moment before asking, "Could it be that they wanted to destroy our crude oil refineries but bombed the wrong ones?"
"That's impossible." Zong Ying denied coldly, "Why would such an elite unit make such a low-level mistake? They must have some other motive. Tell our men to study the connection between these oil refineries! "
"Then what if they really wanted to destroy our crude oil refineries?" the general asked.
Zong Ying paused for a moment before saying, "Inform the oil refineries to step up their security! Raise the alert level of the garrison! "
Oil refineries like these were all garrisoned by troops. Since Ren Xiaosu and the others knew the importance of energy, how could the Soong Clan not know about it?
At this moment, Jiao Xiaochen was complaining to Zhang Xiaoman on the train, "Captain, if we find the wrong place again, let's just give up. The Soong Clan will definitely be on guard …."
Zhang Xiaoman shouted at the top of his lungs, "How can you blame me for this? Huh? When we asked the refugees where the oil refineries were, they told us right away. None of you questioned it at that time, so why are you blaming me now?! "
"It's not your fault, it's not your fault …."
As Ren Xiaosu listened to the ruckus, the back of his head started hurting.
