Yue Zhong quickly caught up with Su Dongming’s Third Battalion, they were currently engaged in an intense firefight with the survivors that Yue Zhong gathered in SY County led by Chen Shitou.
The majority of the soldiers in the Third Battalion of Su Dongming were new soldiers. Only a few seasoned veterans were among the ranks, so their fighting capability was low.
Yue Zhong on the other hand, had gathered a battalion’s worth of new soldiers, and similarly had a few season warriors leading them. However, the party on defence usually had a slight advantage.
Su Dongming’s Third Battalion had been trying relentlessly to break past Chen Shitou’s point, but was always pushed back. In fact they left behind many corpses and soon it was turning into a firefight with no results.
The 2 sides were constantly firing from behind cover, ammunition was expended like crazy, and yet both sides’ losses did not amount to much.
Right at this time, Yue Zhong had directly charged into the command post of the Third Battalion and fired wildly for a while. This led to the deaths of all the commanders within the Third Battalion.
With a ‘hong’, Su Dongming’s Third Battalion command post was directly destroyed by the grenade Yue Zhong threw.
“We’ve lost!! We’ve lost!! Our commanders have all perished!! Everyone let’s escape!! If we still stay on, we’re going to get trapped here!!”
Yue Zhong had blown apart the command post of the Third Battalion. Afterwards he used his .05 submachine gun to fire continuously and killed people, as he hollered at the top of his voice.
When the soldiers saw their own commanders blasted to smithereens, they were all shaken. Some even threw their weapons down and began fleeing wildly, while some others continued to put up a resistance.
The entire Third Battalion was thrown into chaos, with sounds of crying, shouting and calling out ringing out everywhere.
Chen Shitou took advantage of this time, and selected a company worth of soldiers to rush in. The attackers swiftly killed those soldiers who were devastated. The soldiers of Chen Shitou were also new soldiers and weren’t up to standard in terms of warfare. If the enemy decided to counter and if they were successful, he would have lost control of this battalion. Therefore, he only dared to send in a company’s worth of soldiers to complement Yue Zhong’s assault.
