Chapter 457: Chapter 457
As the soldiers of the U.S. Cavalry 8th Regiment have already crossed the bridge and withdrawn, the soldiers of the British Allied Army 27th Brigade also breathe a sigh of relief. The main force has retreated, and it will soon be their turn.
Zhou Hao, however, is not feeling sleepy.
Because NPCs don’t have a ’real-time map’, but here on his ’real-time map’.
The color representing the Volunteer Army has already approached the neighboring United States artillery camp.
But the soldiers of the British Allied Army 27th Brigade have not yet noticed.
Guess the fighting will start soon.
Zhou Hao and the Blue Star viewers in the live-stream are waiting. If the battle really starts, it probably won’t come down to the Australian Camp where he is.
Because it’s a secret ace, they’ve always been treated like treasures.
They won’t be deployed unless absolutely necessary.
This gives Zhou Hao a chance to live-stream the battle situation.
As time slowly passes.
Watching the ’real-time map’, the Volunteer Army’s color gets closer and closer to the United States artillery camp.
Bang bang bang bang—!
Suddenly, dense gunfire is heard from outside.
Then there are panicked shouts and the sound of submachine gun fire, creating a somewhat chaotic mix.
Everyone in Zhou Hao’s camp wakes up, and the firelight from explosions flickers on the canvas:
"Damn it, how is this possible!"
"How did they suddenly appear? Get up quickly!"
The soldiers in the Australian Camp quickly dress and grab their weapons as they rush out of the tent.
Zhou Hao follows everyone and rushes out.
In the distance. For origınal chapters go to 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭⚫𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦⚫𝘯𝘦𝘵
The United States artillery camp is engulfed in flames, with continuous explosions echoing.
Fortunately, it’s quite far from the Australian Camp.
Seeing the United States artillery camp under attack, many soldiers in the Australian Camp breathe a sigh of relief, then discuss with amused expressions:
"Aren’t those Americans always bragging about their impenetrable defenses?"
"In the end, they didn’t even get a warning and got hit right on the face?"
"Judging by the noise, at least a company of enemies has snuck in."
"The combat capabilities of the U.S. soldiers are pretty overrated, huh? That 8th Regiment of the so-called ’Steel Torrent’ was beaten up like that during the day, now a surprise attack."
"Serves them right! Who told them to set the artillery camp so far forward?"
The British Allied Army 27th Brigade is a mixed unit, composed not only of the British Commonwealth but also of the United States, Australia, and other national forces.
If they were outside, the soldiers of the Australian Camp naturally wouldn’t dare to be too arrogant.
But during the day, the U.S. Cavalry 8th Regiment was beaten like that, their mythology shattered.
Their words naturally become indifferent.
Now the one under attack is the artillery camp from the United States side.
The soldiers in the Australian Camp all have a posture of observing the excitement.
Zhou Hao’s side hears this and his lips move slightly, while the Blue Star viewers in the live-stream are speechless.
These Australian Camp guys are the ones really floating, right?
Bringing the U.S. Cavalry 8th Regiment over, just this one-thousand-eight-hundred men from the Australian Camp, and one wave of firepower bombardment, they’d be gone.
They’ve probably been held too high, after all. Under the propaganda of the British Allied Army 27th Brigade.
Even the Australian Camp has silently accepted it; they are the hidden ace, naturally seeing no one in their eyes.
But they can’t just sit and watch.
Soon, the upper echelons issue an order to prepare for battle.
Soldiers in the Australian Camp confidently wait to strike, ready to sweep away everything.
After the initial chaos, the United States artillery camp quickly organizes a counterattack.
Simultaneously calling for nearby and aerial support.
In less than half an hour, other camps within the British Allied Army 27th Brigade encircle the area, and intense crossfire ensues.
And Zhou Hao and the Blue Star viewers in the live-stream, observing the ’real-time map’.
As other camps of the British Allied Army 27th Brigade reinforce, the Volunteer Army also deploys about two companies of troops into the battle.
The outer positions of the United States artillery camp become the focus of a tug-of-war between the two sides.
The battle continues until just before dawn.
Although the Volunteer Army soldiers make multiple advances, they are too few in number, causing the situation to become tense.
Zhou Hao separates from the Australian Camp’s troops and keeps watching the action over there.
Behind Qingchuan River Bridge, an explosion suddenly rings out.
Thick smoke billows at the bridge location.
This astonishes the soldiers of the British Allied Army 27th Brigade.
When did so many enemies sneak over again?
Moreover.... a bridge bombing?!
Once the bridge blows up, the retreat route will be completely cut off.
The soldiers of the British Allied Army 27th Brigade no longer care about the positions at the United States artillery camp and urgently return to assist at the bridge.
Compared to the artillery camp positions.
Qingchuan River Bridge is crucial. If destroyed, none of the British Allied Army 27th Brigade will escape, and everyone will be held accountable.
Even those in the Australian Camp who were just watching the fun are ready to enter the fight.
The battlefield focus suddenly shifts from the artillery camp to Qingchuan River Bridge’s battle for control.
At Qingchuan River Bridge, the British Commonwealth has long built defense structures.
But the Volunteer Army’s attack is so sudden that they’ve failed to react, and now, relying on solid defenses plus machine-gun points on the ridge behind.
They sweep towards the Volunteer Army trying to bomb the bridge, and both sides are at a standoff.
The British Allied Army 27th Brigade has ample firepower, sweeping continuously, leaving the Volunteer Army’s side better unable to move forward.
Many Volunteer Army soldiers even crawl through gunfire and throw explosive packs to bomb the bridge.
