Chapter 274: 【Wagner's 'Human Wave' Tactics】(4k)

At this time.

The troops with the Free Star Cluster number floating above their heads were guarding Bakhmut here.

And the Russian Federation's mercenary group opposite was using the broken walls to engage in a firefight with the Free Star Cluster Federation troops.

The location of the firefight was an abandoned factory.

Looking down from the high-altitude perspective.

Those mercenaries wearing mixed uniforms, without any heavy firepower cover, gathered at a collapsed wall gap, waiting for orders.

And as the personnel arrived.

The mercenary leader opposite waved his hand, and a group of mercenaries quickly spread out from the wall gap, covering each other and leaping forward, rushing toward the opposite side in a fearless charging state.

Surrounding a five-story building held by the Free Star Cluster Federation soldiers opposite.

The firefight between the two sides was extremely intense.

It could be seen that the mercenaries of the Russian Federation's organization named 'Wagner' were falling on the road of charging every second, but no one retreated.

They relied on piling up numbers to advance to the bottom of that five-story building.

This scene.

The Free Star Cluster special operations brigade officers who had just come in gasped:

"Hiss—"

""

"These guys, aren't they afraid of death?"

"Are these people brainwashed?"

"A bit outrageous, completely using lives to pile up."

Other officers discussed.

Looking at those mercenaries who were not afraid of death, everyone was a bit puzzled.

Because according to their understanding.

Mercenaries must be for money, since they are for money, they must be more afraid of death than professionals.

As a result, these mercenaries were actually filling the front line with their lives.

Since when were mercenaries so selfless?

And chief of staff Carlson flipped through the discussion records in the comment area on the side of the plot stream, and soon Carlson began to speak:

"Those mercenaries are not ordinary mercenaries."

Hearing this.

Others were a bit confused.

Are there special mercenaries?

Carlson looked at the discussion records in the comment area and said:

"The members of the Russian Federation's mercenary organization are all vicious criminals selected from various local prisons."

"'"

"According to normal laws, they would be locked up until they die."

"But if they are trained a little and participate in front-line combat, as long as they hold on for half a year, they can be released without guilt."

Other Free Star Cluster officers in the conference room were a bit confused.

Can it still be like this?

But some people also found something wrong:

"That's not right."

"Chief of staff, according to this, these people should be more afraid of death."

"After all, holding on for half a year will be released."

Carlson shook his head, looking at the fierce battle in the picture:

"Do you think that according to this intensity, how many can live for half a year?"

"And do you really think the Russian Federation hasn't prepared?"

"If these criminals don't execute orders, but are afraid of death, the outcome waiting for them will be even more cruel."

"'"

"So even if an order is given here to let them charge without weapons."

"These criminals wouldn't dare to disobey."

"This situation is too difficult."

Speaking to the end, Carlson looked at the Free Star Cluster squad that had already been surrounded. Under the fearless charging of the mercenary group opposite, this five-story building had been surrounded, and the death of the squad inside was just a matter of time.

The Russian Federation is too ruthless.

Using the lives of criminals to exchange for the regular army here.

The key is that the regular army feels heartache when they die, but most of the people in the mercenary group here are criminals who were brought in, who were going to die anyway, so it doesn't matter if they die or not.

They don't feel heartache at all, and even use this human wave tactic that is not afraid of sacrifice to continuously compress the living space of the Free Star Cluster Federation soldiers in Bakhmut.

Carlson thought for a while, his brows furrowed.

This method is truly shameless.

But it is also truly unsolvable.

The Free Star Cluster Federation troops here are now replacing the identity of the Ukraine Federation soldiers, but according to the tactics on the Blue Star side, there is no way to deal with this consumption.

Why.

The opposite side is not afraid of consumption.

They are all criminals.

To put it bluntly, if there were no war, these criminals would have to be locked up until they die.

Belonging to the kind that wastes air even if they are alive.

But now they are pulled out to consume, even if it takes a hundred criminals to exchange for the occupation of a house, it is worth it.

Because those criminals themselves have no value.

Using things that have no value to exchange for houses with strategic significance is simply a no-cost business.

And among these criminals.

Those who can be sentenced to life imprisonment can imagine how serious the crime is.

Among them are many thugs.

A regular soldier of the Free Star Cluster might not fall behind when facing two or three thugs, but if a group of thugs pushes over without fear of death, it won't work if the number is small.

And even if there are many people, fighting them is a loss.

Using the lives of a group of thugs to exchange for a group of regular troops, which side loses is obvious.

The battle in the plot is still continuing.

Carlson slid the perspective.

The Free Star Cluster Federation troops on the edge of Bakhmut and the mercenary group opposite have already reached the white-hot stage, almost everywhere is engaging in a firefight.

And the 'human wave' tactic opposite is also playing a role.

Those soldiers of the mercenary group pop out from everywhere, the formation doesn't have any tactical discipline at all.

But there are so many that the Free Star Cluster Federation soldiers can't take care of every battlefield.

A little carelessness.

And they will be sniped by mercenaries popping out from the corners.

Inside the fourth floor of a building.

A Free Star Cluster soldier who was using a heavy machine gun to sweep the mercenaries opposite suddenly stumbled, the heavy machine gun in his hand stopped firing instantly, Carlson looked at the sound of the gun.

A mercenary hiding under the building didn't know when he aimed at the machine gunner just now.

One shot to the head.

Such situations are everywhere.

Watching, the Free Star Cluster special operations brigade officers in the conference room also became solemn.

For no other reason.

These mercenary group soldiers are too ruthless.

Every charge, the casualty rate is at least a quarter.

But soon someone will be replenished from the rear, and the attack is not left with intervals, this oppressive tactic brings pressure to the Free Star Cluster Federation soldiers.

And what the Free Star Cluster Federation high-level officials see outside is the ruthlessness of this move.

Who would care about the lives of these prisoners?

Their appearance here has already exerted the greatest tactical value, which is to use the lives of a group of death row prisoners to consume and fight against the regular troops of the Ukraine Federation.

And under such consumption regardless of cost.

The edge of Bakhmut has gradually been controlled by the Russian Federation's troops here.

The effect has already appeared.

The Ukraine Federation is gradually losing this place.

Below.

The commander of the 3rd Armored Brigade of the Free Star Cluster Federation's A Group Army, Myers, is commanding the remaining soldiers.

Conducting the battle to defend the suburbs of Bakhmut.

The original 2,000-person armored brigade, after more than half a month of firefights, only has less than 300 people left.

Myers is here with people, guarding an area where only bridge piers are left.

Originally there was a railway here, but with the shelling from the Russian side, the railway was also destroyed.

Fighting to this extent, what kind of transportation hub is it.

Everything that can be blown up has been blown up.

Capturing this place now is no longer of strategic significance.

But neither side wants to lose.

Because they have already consumed so much, if they don't fight at this time, then the previous consumption would have been in vain.

Myers suddenly heard some sound, and then suddenly shouted:

"Cover!!!"

As the voice fell.

He himself was the first to find a pit and hide in it, then pulled over a few wooden boards to block it on top.

In the sky.

Artillery shells fell densely with tearing whistling sounds.

Precisely covering the buildings in the guard area of Myers here.

Boom boom boom boom—

Limbs and building ruins spread and collapsed in the violent shock wave, smashing everywhere.

Soon.

The second round, the third round...

The salvo of artillery shells followed one after another, smashing onto the entire position like a rainstorm, those who were unlucky were torn apart directly by the shells; just this wave of artillery washing the ground.

Beat the remaining 300-plus people of the Free Star Cluster Federation's 3rd Armored Brigade down to only 200-plus people.

A few minutes later.

As soon as the artillery sound stopped.

The 3rd Armored Mobile Corps Commander Myers inspected and integrated the remaining personnel, abandoned this place, and transferred backward.

The mercenary group opposite had already killed over.

If they don't withdraw, they will all die here.

Half a day later.

These remaining soldiers of the 3rd Armored Brigade retreated to an open space, and there was a Ukraine Federation NPC squad here, but the two sides didn't have much communication.

There were only six or seven people there, looking quite wary of them.

Here.

The Free Star Cluster soldiers, looking at the distant Ukraine Federation NPCs, some were holding phones, seemingly calling their families.

Getting up and wanting to go over to stop them, after all, this would expose the target.

But as soon as he got up, he was stopped by Mobile Corps Commander Myers:

"Alright."

"Don't worry about it."

"Fighting to this extent, death is a matter of time."

"Besides, they are just a group of NPCs."

""

Seeing this.

The Free Star Cluster Federation soldiers didn't say anything either.

It's true.

They were too invested; this is a training plot, a few NPCs, fight if you want, anyway, fighting to now, they have no hope of winning, let it be.

Just don't know if they can kill a few more mercenaries opposite before dying.

And.

Fighting to this extent, the Ukraine Federation side couldn't possibly issue an order to withdraw; their only ending is to be consumed here, just a day earlier or later.

Just looking at those two Ukraine Federation NPCs calling.

A Free Star Cluster soldier couldn't help but whisper:

"Do NPCs also have moms?"

"Is this a plot designed by Polaris on purpose?"

Hearing this.

The soldier next to him looked at the Ukraine Federation soldiers calling in the distance and said:

"No matter what, it's also the human world."

"Even if it's an NPC setting, there will be fathers and mothers."

"Isn't it normal to call home?"

"Even if you're dying, can't you think of your mom?"

"And..."

""

"The universe is so big."

"Maybe such a thing is happening somewhere."

The soldier next to him shook his head:

"How is that possible."

"'Earth' is fictional; if there really is such a world, what a huge probability of coincidence."

"To be able to give birth to a place called 'Earth', and the humans on it develop exactly the same as the plot in the game."

Others thought it was also true.

After all, it's just a game plot, can't take it too seriously.

However...

That Free Star Cluster Federation soldier who asked the most, looking at the Ukraine Federation soldiers in the distance, supported his chin and said:

"If all this is true."

"We are about to die in battle."

""

"Who would you want to call?"

The Free Star Cluster soldier next to him thought for a while and said:

"It would be my mom."

"But I'm not sure if I would cry."

Looking at the Ukraine Federation soldiers in the distance, don't know who they were calling, but they were always looking up, obviously not wanting their tears to flow out.

This scene.

Made everyone's heart tremble slightly.

Others also spoke one after another:

"My sister, if it's really the time of death, I definitely wouldn't dare to call my dad and mom."

"My dad, because I can't let my mom be sad."

""

"You kid, then you let your dad be sad?"

"No way, I'm an only child, either mom or dad, my dad's endurance is stronger."

"Why are they all relatives? Doesn't anyone want to call their wife or goddess?"

"Please? Dying and still thinking about women?"

"If possible... definitely wouldn't want this day to come."

"Fortunately, this is just a training plot."

Talking and talking, everyone eased out of the heavy atmosphere.

That's right.

This is just a plot after all.

There is no 'Earth' in the universe, there is only their 'Blue Star'.

There is also no so-called 【2022】, their Blue Star is still peaceful, this is just a training plot, it's cruel, but it's all fake.

Rested for a short while.

Mobile Corps Commander Myers organized everyone to continue the transfer.

Because it's not very safe here either.

Just organized the team to get up, the sharp artillery shells in the sky whistled and struck again.

Mobile Corps Commander Myers' face changed, and he cursed:

"Hell!"

"Endless!"

"Cover!"

The whole team dispersed instantly, everyone was looking for cover.

And in the situation where some soldiers hadn't found cover, the shells had already fallen densely.

Boom boom boom boom—

That soldier who wanted to stop the Ukraine Federation NPC from calling the most, after jumping into the pit, subconsciously looked at the Ukraine Federation NPC squad.

But just happened to see two shells fall.

Boom—!

The Ukraine Federation soldiers who were still calling just now were instantly torn apart.

One could even see the black square object clutched in the arm flying into mid-air, which was exactly the phone used by the Ukraine Federation NPC.

The Free Star Cluster Federation soldier who saw this scene had a blank brain.

Until several shells fell, the continuous explosions startled him back to his senses, and he hurriedly lowered his body, but still couldn't help looking up in that direction.

But there was no NPC squad there anymore.

Only limbs and broken arms on the ground and collapsed building walls.

For a time.

The throat of this Free Star Cluster Federation soldier seemed to be blocked by something, don't know what to say, just looking at the ruins and limbs, and cursed in the roar of artillery:

"Damn the war."

Then lowered his head, praying that the artillery fire wouldn't hit him here...
