Chapter 1397: You definitely did it on purpose
In the middle of the night, the success of a particular military operation depended 30% on luck and 70% on cover. In the moonlight, visibility was too poor, and at a distance of 50 meters and beyond, nothing could be seen at all.
A sniper rifle with night vision goggles was the ultimate weapon on the night battlefield.
— It's already two hours and twenty-one minutes, " the assistant said in Su Xiao's ear. A couple of minutes ago, a shell exploded twenty meters away from her, causing her to be concussed.
— Too close, " Su Xiao replied calmly. That explosion barely affected him.
Apparently due to the fact that she couldn't hear well now due to the concussion, she thought that everyone around her couldn't hear her well either, which was why she was speaking much louder than usual.
Su Xiao didn't dislike this girl. She was actually very good at measuring distance and could accurately determine the position with her naked eye.
Furthermore, Su Xiao's first partner, Hyde, was also a talker. She didn't talk much compared to Hyde.
— It's two hours and twenty-two minutes, " she shouted again, moving even closer to him. She was different from ordinary girls. She didn't smell good, oh no, she smelled like gunpowder and dirt.
— I know, " Su Xiao replied in a slightly raised tone.
— What'll we do? "What is it?" she asked.
— To wait.
She was so alarmed because they had received an order from above that they were to repel the enemy's panzer division before 12 o'clock. If they can't open it, they'll be in big trouble.
So Su Xiao needed to cover up the three members of the sweep team so that they could enter the forest and enter the enemy's rear.
They will have to manage to get there before 30 minutes, because according to the usual schedule, the enemy launched flares to illuminate the space at exactly thirty minutes.
— They decided to eliminate us, " the assistant shouted and immediately ducked down.
A bullet whizzed past her head, almost blowing her head off.
Su Xiao picked up the bloody helmet from the ground and threw it up.
*Pum-pum-pum…*
It immediately turned into a sieve, and the ground around Su Xiao's trench began to fly in all directions.
The enemy discovered his position. Snipers were hated on any battlefield, and the elimination of such priority targets would not have spared both people and serious weapons..
— Changing positions, " Su Xiao said, grabbing his assistant by the scruff of the neck and jumping out of the trench.
*Whew-whew...*
Bullets began to fly past him, causing Su Xiao to throw out a stun grenade.
*Bang!*
In the darkness of the night, a bright white flash suddenly appeared, allowing Su Xiao to reach the abandoned tank. This tank was overturned with a half charred corpse hanging from its muzzle.
Assistant Su Xiao rubbed her eyes, and her gaze clearly wanted to say, " Where am I? How did I get here?»
After putting it on the ground, Su Xiao took out a heat pump and attached it to the tank's chassis. Red figures immediately began to appear on his tablet.
Among the many red figures, there were three purple shadows that were the three members of the sweep team.
— What's it? The assistant asked, obviously she had never seen such equipment before.
— The result of science and technology, " Su Xiao replied as he watched the three men's actions. He wasn't just going to stick his head out right now, it just didn't make sense.
— It looks cool, " the assistant said, and touched the tablet. Su Xiao glanced at her, and she just smirked.
— Twenty-seven meters…
After hesitating for a moment, Su Xiao leaned out from behind the tank.
*Boom!*
The bullet pierced the torso of an enemy soldier 780 meters away.
*Fi-yu-yu~*
A sharp whistle pierced the air.
The projectile was falling directly on Su Xiao.
Almost immediately, the assistant removed the heat pack from the tank's chassis. She roughly understood how valuable this item was.
Just as she was about to rush to the nearest trench, she was surprised to find that the 48-ton tank had moved.
*Crack-crack-crack...*
The steel began to twist.
Su Xiao picked up a part of the tank with one hand and threw it straight up.
*Boom!*
A bright flash appeared in the air, after which the assistant felt a strong push.
With a crash, it fell into the pit. When she regained her senses, Su Xiao had already set up a sniper rifle beside her.
— Location.
— South, one hundred and seventy-three, six hundred and seventy, three and two meters, " she answered immediately in a second. All Su Xiao needed to know was the distance.
Su Xiao pulled the trigger, and the target that was 50 meters away from the Tracker Dog was shot in the head.
The dog, along with 2 of his companions, were able to safely enter the forest.
Su Xiao looked around and after confirming that there were no opponents around, he bent down and rushed towards the nearest trench.
Compared to the pit that was created due to the shell bursting, the trench was many times safer.
His assistant lay down on the ground and quickly crawled forward. 20 seconds after Su Xiao jumped into the trench, his assistant crawled into it as well.
Under the roar of artillery shells and the whistle of bullets, she lay in the trench and breathed deeply.
— The little assistant stood up with a somersault, her movements beautiful and graceful, but in the next instant, Su Xiao knocked her down.
*Whew*
Several bullets whizzed over the trench.
— It hurts~... I calculated the altitude, the bullets wouldn't have hit me, " she muttered, covering her stomach with her hand.
— Really? It was my mistake then, " Su Xiao replied as he lit a cigarette. His mission was accomplished. Now he also needed to get behind enemy lines.
— I'll get my revenge, that's for sure, " she muttered, sitting down and taking out some pressed cookies.
There was a rumble behind them and a vibration began to reach their trench.
The tanks were closing in on them one by one, at least a hundred of them.
A friendly panzer division arrived for backup.
The friction of the tracks made a rumbling sound, but hundreds of tanks were moving quickly side by side.
The trenches were more than a meter wide, so all the tanks easily overcame them.
Su Xiao jumped out of the trench and followed the tank, while his assistant followed him.
*BOOM!*
An anti-tank shell hit the side of the tank. Sparks flew in all directions. The projectile ricocheted and bounced away. The steel plate that was hit by the projectile turned red and white steam began to rise from it.
— Wow~ ... " the assistant mumbled and lowered her head with a smile on her face.
*BOOM-BOOM-BOOM!*
Tanks opened fire on enemy trenches.
A white rocket shot up into the sky and immediately broke apart.
The entire battlefield suddenly became light, as if it was day.
Thick white smoke began to rise from the enemy's trenches, and soon an inhuman howl began to be heard from it.
White phosphorus shells were very effective at destroying infantry.
— Ah-ah-ah! An enemy soldier covered in white spots leaped out of the trench with a yell, and in the next instant, he was immediately torn to pieces.
The alliance infantry also began to leave the trenches and stand in rows behind friendly tanks. From time to time stray bullets would hit the soldiers and they would drop dead to the ground.
Su Xiao walked right behind the tank and kept an eye on the enemy trenches. He was a bit baffled by the fact that the enemy tanks had never entered the battle.
The advance of the tanks was unstoppable. In just a couple of minutes, the tanks were already only 80 meters from the enemy trenches.
The main guns and heavy machine guns of the tanks began to concentrate firepower on the trenches, thanks to which in less than ten minutes the enemy trenches were blown to splinters.
— Infantry! The panzer division commander shouted into his radio, and all the infantry behind the tanks immediately rushed forward.
This is how war worked in this world: the side that used tanks had an absolute advantage.
Su Xiao jumped on top of the tank and knocked on the hatch.
The tanker opened the hatch doubtfully.
— What do you want?" "What is it?" he asked.
— Make room.
Su Xiao and his assistant climbed into the tank, but the assistant was completely hidden behind the steel armor, while Su Xiao's upper body was sticking out of the hatch.
After a quick dialogue, the tank continued to move forward.
What happened in this sector of the front exceeded all the best expectations. The enemy's advanced detachments were so fragile that they were knocked out of their positions in just fifteen minutes.
The enemy did not even have time to use their tanks.
