At the very least, Black Robe was certain of one thing. In such a high-intensity battle, the expeditionary army's relentless attacks would indeed quickly deplete the 6th Combat Brigade's ammunition.
It would not take too long. Ten hours would be enough. If the attacks were more intense, it could even take eight hours.
A combat brigade could only carry a limited amount of ammunition. Furthermore, each army had strict rules for carrying ammunition, commonly known as a base ammunition.
If it was a little more detailed, it would basically be 60 rounds of pistol ammunition, 200 rounds of automatic rifle ammunition, 500 rounds of squad machine gun ammunition, 1500 rounds of tank machine gun ammunition, and 120 rounds of battalion 82mm mortar ammunition.
The amount of ammunition one carried was related to the endurance of the battle and also the weight the soldiers could carry. It was a very particular subject, and one could not carry too much or too little.
But this time, it was fortunate that the 6th Combat Brigade had brought more ammunition with them when they set off. The Wang Clan had also sent over a batch of heavy machine guns and heavy machine gun ammunition. Otherwise, they might not even be able to last for eight hours.
The battle had reached a point where one side would not rest until the other side was dead. Victory or defeat would be decided within these eight hours.
The Wang Clan also knew what was happening at Zuoyun Mount from Mt. Daniu. If Zuoyun Mount fell, the Wang Clan would have to bear the pressure of the remaining expeditionary army troops. This was also something they did not want to see happen.
So when the expeditionary army attacked Zuoyun Mount, the Wang Clan also launched a full-scale counterattack. They no longer tried to stall for time and were determined to fight to the death.
And this series of chain reactions was only because Ren Xiaosu had wiped out the barbarians' supply transportation troops.
At this moment, Wang Yun said to P5092, "I've gone to the various positions and checked them out. Based on the current ammunition consumption, we'll be out of ammunition after eight hours and 41 minutes at most. Of course, this is only the theoretical average. Young Marshal's side will also get tired. If we continue fighting for eight hours, her shooting accuracy will definitely drop. At that time, the suppressive firepower of the sniper rifle won't be as strong, and the ammunition consumption at the positions will also increase."
P5092 nodded. "Got it."
After that, P5092 turned to look at Xun Yeyu and pointed to a geographical location on the sand table. "If there are more than 10,000 expeditionary army troops gathered at this location, you must inform me immediately."
Then P5092 said to Ji Zi 'ang, "At that time, push down Peak 6 to delay the expeditionary army's attack. Right now, our situation is not optimistic. Fortunately, we don't only have firearms and explosives as our trump cards. We still have everyone here. Alright, everyone, go back to your duties. Officer Zhang Husheng, I'll have to trouble you to guard the second position. Once Heavy Armor Warriors appear there, you must kill them all. "
Big Bluff chuckled and said, "Don't worry, as long as I have the strength, they won't be able to come up to the second position."
With that, everyone left. Before Zhang Xiaoman left, he glared at Big Bluff. "You old man, we'll settle the score for taking advantage of me later. Let's finish this war first."
Big Bluff chuckled as he walked away. "You make it sound like you can beat me. Besides, you weren't even born when I met your father, so what's wrong with taking advantage of you a little? Besides, how do you know I'm not your biological father …. "
Zhang Xiaoman's eyes nearly exploded with anger when he heard this. This old, perverted bastard was not done taking advantage of others. He was too sarcastic!
Zhang Xiaoman cursed, "Can't I scold you even if I can't beat you? Just you wait, I'll scold you until you vomit blood after the war is over! "
P5092 walked to the defensive position and looked at the expeditionary army that was still charging outside. Next to him, Wang Yun suddenly said, "Actually, you don't think the situation is optimistic, do you? Although I can't tell from your expression, I've summed it up. When you're relaxed, you blink 16 times a minute. But when you're nervous, you only blink nine times a minute."
P5092 smiled. "It's really hard to hide anything when I have a comrade like you."
"The Young Marshal and Mrs. Young Marshal have clearly displayed great strength, and everyone is putting in all their effort for this battle. Why are you getting more and more worried when the expeditionary army's numbers are dwindling?" Wang Yun asked.
"Because we're isolated and helpless." P5092 sighed and said, "Xun Yeyu just said that another group of troops has appeared in the Northwest. There aren't many of them, only about 2,000 of them. They're currently 80 kilometers away from us. Based on their speed, they'll arrive at the battlefield in two hours. "
Wang Yun was taken aback. "That can't be right. Why would the barbarians be coming from the Northwest? Didn't they come from the north? Could they be from our hometown in the Northwest?"
At this moment, Wang Yun's words had changed when he mentioned the Northwest.
P5092 said, "You also know that Xun Yeyu can observe other people's vital signs. According to him, other than the Young Marshal, as long as anyone else appears in his perception, he can judge their strength based on the intensity of their 'flames.'"
Wang Yun immediately understood. "Did Xun Yeyu tell you that these 2,000 people are very powerful?"
"Yes." P5092 nodded and said, "Their flames are even stronger than the normal barbarians'."
Wang Yun was also shocked. It was impossible for there to be so many powerful supernatural beings in the Northwest. If there were, it would be impossible for Big Bluff and Ren Xiaosu not to know about it.
Therefore, the sudden appearance of 2,000 experts in the Northwest had to be the barbarians' reinforcements. After all, no one knew how many barbarians there were in the North and how many troops they had, so it would be normal for them to show up.
So it turned out that P5092 was not optimistic because Xun Yeyu had discovered the enemy's reinforcements.
With that, Wang Yun could no longer be optimistic.
…
At the same time, a group of troops were advancing quickly on the mountain roads in the Northwest. They were traveling along the highway leading to the Central Plains in the Northwest. Then they left the highway 310 kilometers away from Mount Zuoyun because the highway did not lead to Mount Zuoyun.
The 2,000 troops were not careless at all as they crossed the mountains. When they could see Mount Zuoyun in the distance, Luo Lan, who was leading them, suddenly stopped and looked at the map. "We're heading in the right direction. Mount Zuoyun is just up ahead. All fighting forces, take note. We'll arrive at the periphery of Mount Zuoyun in an hour. After that, we'll take a short break there before heading straight for the barbarians to beat the shit out of them. Understood?"
The responses of the various fighting forces' officers came over the radio. "Roger that."
"Roger that."
"Roger that."
Luo Lan was wearing an oversized combat uniform. When he looked at the map, it looked like he was ordering food from a restaurant. He muttered, "I wonder if Xiaosu and the others can hold out until we get there. They should be able to. After all, they should be able to chop up the barbarians like they're chopping melons."
Behind Luo Lan was an entire reinforced platoon of nanosoldiers. Each of the nanosoldiers had silver tattoos on their faces, and silver blood flowed through their veins. They looked like 2,000 celestial soldiers and generals.
