Chapter 109: [Battle of Moscow] That Can Be Settled in Advance, Exclusive Plot Photos (3.1k)

Seeing this, Duan Yu couldn't help but speak out:

"Hey, let go of that child."

As he spoke, he shook the stick in his hand.

The dagger at the top of the stick looked very dazzling under the reflection of the snow.

The big man opposite frowned when he saw this and looked down at the boy who had pounced on his thigh.

!

He kicked him away with force again, then looked at Duan Yu:

"Kid, don't meddle in other people's business."

"These two damn things are thieves."

As he spoke, he took two steps forward, walked to the boy who had been kicked to the corner and was struggling to get up, and fumbled.

Soon he fumbled out a pile of change and a wallet.

Picking up the wallet, the big man couldn't help but raise his hand again.

Slap!

"You dare to steal my money?"

He slapped him a few more times, then the big man looked up at Duan Yu and couldn't help but sneer:

"Kid, don't use your kindness in the wrong place."

After speaking, he let go of the child he was holding, took his wallet, and left while cursing. Duan Yu frowned, also feeling it was troublesome.

But since he had already saved them, there was no other way. Watching the big man leave.

Duan Yu slowly relaxed the action in his hand, put down the stick with the dagger tied to it, and looked at the two children:

"Are you okay?"

The two saved children didn't speak, their eyes filled with fear, and they shook their heads repeatedly.

Seeing this, Duan Yu didn't continue to speak, but turned and returned to the alley, sat back in the shed, put the stick back inside, and said to the barrage in the live broadcast room:

"Doing this much is enough."

"Things like this happen every day, it's good enough to protect yourself."

"Leningrad is getting more and more chaotic now."

"The army can no longer control it. It's considered lucky that this child wasn't beaten to death."

Just as he was speaking, footsteps came from behind.

Duan Yu picked up the stick he had put away again, turned and looked.

It was the two children. Duan Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as he was about to put the stick down, the little boy he had just saved suddenly rushed up, and before Duan Yu could react, snatched the hard bread placed next to the fire.

Then he pulled the other child and ran directly.

Duan Yu hurriedly stood up, but because he had no strength, his vision went black and he swayed, failing to chase them out.

The live broadcast room was also stunned at this time.

The friends who were just egging Duan Yu on to save the two children felt their faces being slapped hard.

Duan Yu supported himself against the wall with one hand to alleviate the symptoms of hypoglycemia:

"Damn!"

He couldn't catch up even if he chased.

He could only sit down and say:

"Sigh... in the current situation in Leningrad, it's good enough to protect yourself."

He was used to this kind of situation; he had only taken a look because of the friends' egging on, and he hadn't taken the two children to heart.

As a result, they did this as soon as they turned around. Sighing, Duan Yu continued to huddle in the shed:

"Forget it, let's sleep, and wait until the afternoon to get the bread."

"I hope they distribute it today."

No one knew.

The predicament of Leningrad had just begun...

The battle situation in the game was still advancing.

Two days later.

On the Moscow battlefield, the Empire troops still hadn't captured the last few kilometers to Moscow, but were instead pushed back by the Soviet Federation's continuous reinforcements.

At this time.

The reinforcement team where Xu Jie was had already suffered more than half casualties.

Not only did the workers and students in the militia phalanx die, but many of the regular troops who assisted also died.

And the machine gunner Kirill, whom Xu Jie assisted.

A few days ago, he was still saying that the Soviet Union could hold on, but he might not. Now it was indeed the case.

Only a cold corpse remained lying in the trench.

He was shot in the head by an Empire sniper.

Before Kirill died, he struggled a few times, only to take out a pocket watch from his pocket, and a box of cigarettes fell to the ground.

He seemed to want to tell Xu Jie something.

But he didn't have time to say it before he was gone.

Xu Jie was also helpless.

This thing was useless to him; it was as if he could live until the end.

He opened the pocket watch and looked at it. Inside was a photo of a girl. As for who the girl in the photo was, it was obviously unnecessary to say...

This photo made Xu Jie's teeth ache. This plot was too classic.

He put away the pocket watch and tucked the box of cigarettes into his pocket.

Then Xu Jie simply covered Kirill's corpse with snow and mud, and took over his position as a machine gunner, having followed the main force to block the Empire's attack for two days.

But now it was also tough.

Boom—!

Boom—!

The sound of artillery outside the trench roared continuously, and the earth trembled.

The fake fortifications laid out before had tricked the Empire out of many shells, but with the attacks over the past few days, the Empire had gradually figured out the location of the position and some trench locations.

The artillery strikes were becoming more and more accurate. Many people had been blown to death in the trenches over the past few days.

But there was no other way.

In this frozen land, digging a trench was already the limit.

Coupled with heavy personnel losses, there was no ability to dig a second trench.

He could only pray not to be blown up by shells.

Boom—!!!

A layer of snow and soil hit his face, directly burying Xu Jie in the trench hole for the most part. Xu Jie waved the soil on his body, his eyes revealing despair:

"Damn?!"

"Can you be more accurate?!"

Not far away, the machine gun was hit squarely by a shell.

It directly vanished along with the sandbags beside it.

Now it's good.

The only weapon is gone too.

Xu Jie's mouth twitched. He looked into the trench; the only things left that could fight were the two bottles of "heavy weapons" brought from the village at that time, but Xu Jie very much doubted the power of this thing.

Can it really kill a tank?

Boom!

The shelling continued until an hour later.

It slowly stopped.

Xu Jie crawled out of the trench hole, looked at the machine gun that had been blown to pieces on the right and the big pit, forget it...

He picked up the two bottles of "heavy weapons" not far away and held them in his arms.

He took out the box of cigarettes Kirill left behind, took out a match and lit it, and took a deep breath:

Hooo— The roar of the tank engine not far away approached gradually.

Xu Jie took one puff after another, and the friends in the live broadcast room were all question marks.

Asking if the streamer was crazy, why didn't he run?

In fact, only Xu Jie himself knew that there was nowhere to run at all, whether looking at the entire front line.

Or looking at the battlefield where he was.

What's more, empty-handed, where could he run?

Xu Jie listened to the roar of the tank engine coming from above the trench and the trembling of the earth, took the last puff of the cigarette, and lit the two bottles in his hand.

Then, grabbing one in each hand, he rushed out of the trench and instantly discovered the tank in front.

And the tank opposite and the Empire soldiers behind also discovered him. Xu Jie threw the bottle in his right hand forcefully toward the tank:

"I ni..."

Bang!

A burst of gunfire hit Xu Jie's neck squarely.

His whole body couldn't help but retreat a few steps.

And then the machine gun on the tank shot over mercilessly, "Click"!

The burning bottle in his left hand was suddenly shattered.

The flames instantly spread around Xu Jie, engulfing Xu Jie, and the bottle thrown by his right hand, in Xu Jie's last gaze, only fell to the ground in front of the tank, which made Xu Jie couldn't help but curse:

"Damn..."

Pfft!

The corpse fell to the ground.

The screen on Xu Jie's side went pitch black, returning to the game's main interface.

He hadn't recovered yet.

Until a moment later, he rubbed his face and let out a long breath, saying with a smile:

"Brothers, how was it?"

"Was my last wave handsome? Heroic sacrifice."

Looking at the barrage, Xu Jie said with a bitter smile:

"Run?"

"There was nowhere to run."

"Behind is Moscow, and if you really participate in it, watching the people around you being shot to death by Empire soldiers one by one, you won't want to run either."

"You'll only think about taking a few as cushions."

"It's a pity I didn't throw it on the tank at the end. I'll practice grenade throwing when I start a new game."

"If this thing is thrown well, it feels as useful as a shell."

Saying this.

Xu Jie was about to click [Battle of Moscow] again, but a prompt popped up.

[Settle now?]

[Yes] [No]

Looking at the two options below, Xu Jie was a bit surprised:

"What's the situation?"

While looking at the barrage, he opened the Polar Star official website. The Battle of Moscow hasn't ended yet, what to settle?

Suddenly, Xu Jie remembered:

"Oh, right."

"Today is the last day of the 'Morning Star Day' seven-day holiday, right?"

"Could it be because of this?"

Entering the official website, there was indeed an announcement.

The friends in the live broadcast room didn't pay attention to this, and hurriedly followed to read it.

Inside the live broadcast room.

Xu Jie read while looking at the announcement:

"Due to the upcoming end of the 'Morning Star Day' holiday, but the [Battle of Moscow] is still continuing, after comprehensive consideration, an early settlement function is now launched."

"Players can choose to settle by themselves, and then continue to play the game."

"Long-term online players or streamers can choose [No] to wait for the [Battle of Moscow] to end before settling uniformly."

"Settlement rewards include 'Earth' IP series products and exclusive plot photos."

"Note: Settlement does not hinder players from continuing to challenge the [Moscow Order of the Patriotic War] mission. This medal is one of the conditions for players to be selected into the Hall of Fame."

After reading this, Xu Jie understood and said to the live broadcast room:

"Understood."

"The general meaning is that office worker players can't play all the time because the holiday is over, so they can settle early, and playing sporadically later won't be hindered."

"And long-term online players can wait until the [Battle of Moscow] ends before settling. The rewards are all 'Earth' IP series products."

"But maybe long-term players will have more rewards when settling. I don't know when this [Battle of Moscow] will be fought until."

"Then there is the [Moscow Order of the Patriotic War] mission. That mission is simply not meant for humans. I'll go see how the situation is in other live broadcast rooms in a moment."

"I heard that many streamers who challenged it failed."

"Should I settle?"

Xu Jie was a bit conflicted, while the friends egged him on to settle directly. Looking at the full-screen barrage, Xu Jie gritted his teeth and said:

"Alright!"

"Settle now."

"Brothers, follow me, wait for my unboxing live broadcast after I get the rewards, and see what the rewards are and what's going on with that exclusive plot photo?"

Saying this, Xu Jie clicked the settlement button.
