Strongest Soldier King

The battle fully erupted. Everywhere on the hills near the mountain entrance were Gai Wafu's men, with many ambushed along the mountain slopes on both sides of the valley, firing simultaneously. The scene was horrific, with the bullet flashes under the moonlight feeling like Death God's deadly posts, engulfing the warlords on the dirt road with the aura of death.

The trucks at the front were blown up by land mines, paralyzing the convoy and rendering them immobile. The troops retaliated from beneath the trucks, but there were bullets everywhere, leaving no place to hide. More people hid under the trucks. With only about ten trucks, how could they conceal hundreds of people? The officers contacted the rear, requesting a retreat, but the rear responded with orders for a total attack, urging everyone to continue charging forward and carve a bloody path. The officers rejoiced and immediately commanded the troops to charge fiercely forward.

"Boom boom boom!" More land mines were detonated, the intense explosions seemingly shaking the ground. Those at the front were blown to pieces on the spot, with blood and flesh flying everywhere. Those who hadn't died instantly let out horrifying cries of agony, rolling around, appearing particularly terrifying under the moonlight.

The path forward was blocked, and the officers of this unit had no choice but to contact the rear again, eager to organize an immediate retreat. However, a death order came from the rear, insisting that they hold the ground to buy time for a total attack. Thus, all the officers realized they had been abandoned, becoming cannon fodder to attract enemy fire.

Orders were as solid as a mountain, and retreating also meant death. The remaining officers, seeing the continuous casualties around them, turned pale and hurriedly commanded their subordinates to take cover. At this time, Gai Wafu's reserve forces charged up, throwing many grenades from the mountaintop. The grenades exploded immediately upon landing.

The sound of explosions and screams rang out continuously, but were quickly swallowed by the red light and smoke from the blasts. The hundreds-strong attacking force suffered heavy losses and was powerless to strike back. Some clever individuals used the corpses of their companions as shields and played dead on the ground. Faced with the intense firepower, no one could escape on the narrow dirt road.

Luo Zheng calmly observed all this, greatly admiring Lan Xue's command. Suddenly, he noticed Siya Fa's forces launching a total attack. The trucks led the way, covering the charging soldiers. It seemed they were desperate. Seeing this, Luo Zheng did not panic. Instead, his determined face displayed a cold smile.

"The enemy has divided their forces. What should we do?" Gai Wafu asked urgently, yet with no panic. The battle was going well, having eliminated many enemies, which greatly reassured Gai Wafu and filled him with excitement and respect for Luo Zheng.

"About a thousand or so on both sides, with another two thousand in the middle. It seems the enemy is moving with their entire force." Sarazi said excitedly, thinking about Siya Fa's all-out move and the possibility of their base being breached by their own forces, surging with intense excitement.

"The enemy seems willing to go all out. Gai Wafu, you know the terrain well. Is there any terrain behind us we can use as a defense?" Luo Zheng calmly observed the surroundings, asking with an unwavering face and a hidden hint of excitement in his eyes, speaking loudly.

"Yes, about twenty miles back along the dirt road there's a gorge. The terrain is steep, and the gorge is narrow, hard to pass through." Gai Wafu replied excitedly.

"Have the remaining two hundred reserves go ahead, set up defenses, and prepare to support our retreat." Luo Zheng ordered sternly while setting up his sniper rifle. Gai Wafu agreed and went to pass on the order. Sarazi looked at Luo Zheng, a trace of worry flashing across his face, but he swallowed the words he was about to say. As if seeing through Sarazi's thoughts, Luo Zheng continued, "Don't worry, let's see how it goes. It's good to have a retreat plan."

Sarazi nodded in understanding, and Luo Zheng had already locked onto a Sam Country Special Forces member, hiding behind a large truck. His exposed foot in the line of sight brought Luo Zheng joy, and he unhesitatingly pulled the trigger. Amidst all the surrounding gunfire, the sniper bullet was almost undetectable. In the sniper scope, Luo Zheng saw a blood arrow spurting from the target's thigh as the body leaned forward and fell.

"Whoosh!" Luo Zheng, well-prepared, quickly pulled the trigger. The sniper bullet whistled away like a light-speed train, carrying an unstoppable force, crashing into the target, sending it flying. A charming snowy flower erupted in the void, appearing especially eerie in the firelight.

After taking down a Sam Country Special Forces member, Luo Zheng felt great and quickly searched for other targets. But with so many people and the moonlight dim, it wasn't easy to spot anyone. At this moment, Sarazi hurriedly reminded him, "They've already charged up. The vanguard's almost wiped out. What's the next move?"

"Don't worry," Luo Zheng said coldly, continuing in Huaxia language through his earpiece, "Xue Er, have the troops on both sides of the mountain entrance attack outward to slow the enemy's entry speed and buy time to wipe out the vanguard."

"Understood," Lan Xue responded.

After a while, Gai Wafu's elite troops, ambushed on both sides of the mountain entrance, turned their guns to aim at the advancing forces. Leading with the wind and high morale, fierce bullets immediately swept toward the charging troops outside, slowing the main force's attack speed.

After arranging matters for the reserves, Gai Wafu returned, nodding to Luo Zheng. Luo Zheng quickly said, "Organize fifty to sixty people to charge down and clear the enemy on the dirt road, while the others come up and block the total enemy offensive." Luo Zheng shouted loudly, eyes fixed on the sniper scope, constantly moving to find targets.

"Yes," Gai Wafu agreed without hesitation and left.

Suddenly, gunfire erupted from both sides. It turned out the enemy had attacked upwards, with over a thousand on one side, launching a ferocious feint attack, relentlessly charging up the mountainside, attempting a swift assault to capture the hill. Once capturing both sides of the hill, attacking the middle would guarantee victory.

However, Luo Zheng had long foreseen this move. On both sides, tunnels were dug, and Ghost Hand along with Mountain Eagle, two special forces experts, commanded on the front lines, allowing some enemies in to strike, relying on tunnels, and foxholes, suppressing the enemy's offensive forcefully. Both sides fought fiercely, the battle reached a fevered pitch.

One side with superior numbers, the other with geographical advantage, each held its strengths. Seeing the situation deadlocked, Luo Zheng realized it now came down to willpower, tactical skills, and logistics. Whichever side couldn't handle the losses would lose first, causing concern in Luo Zheng's heart. If this turned into a war of attrition, it wouldn't bode well for anyone. Gai Wafu could grow suspicious, and even the Sam Country Special Forces might directly attack Siya Fa's warlord, which would be troublesome.

"We must solve this stalemate quickly," Luo Zheng pondered, his eyes becoming sharp.

"Rat-tat-tat, boom boom boom!" A plethora of gunshots and grenade explosions erupted one after another, presenting an exceptionally chaotic scene. Numerous Siya Fa armed personnel charged toward the mountain entrance, while considering the cost of losing, Gai Wafu's men frantically retaliated, plunging the battle into a fever pitch.
