416 Double kill (1/2)

Since his opponent had called for two guerrilla companies as backup, he had to kill them all!

But Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt that something didn't seem right. Because he had been fucking pursuing a single sniper, he ended up killing two guerrilla companies instead?

How did he end up as the person behind the massacre of the guerrilla companies when he was just trying to kill the sniper?

If he continued hunting the sniper, would it mean that all the guerrillas in the entire mountain range were going to get wiped out?

But the problem was that if he did not get rid of the sniper, the Razor Sharp Company behind him could not risk trekking through this mountain range.

In fact, Ren Xiaosu knew it wasn't that the Razor Sharp Company could not do anything about the sniper. If they really decided to risk it all, how could a single sniper wipe out 180 people who were determined to charge forward? The sniper probably did not even have enough ammunition on him to achieve that.

But it was just that this time, Ren Xiaosu was hoping that everyone from the Razor Sharp Company could return to the fortress alive. That was why he was so persistent in hunting down the sniper who was a threat.

He even wiped out two entire companies of guerrillas in the process.

As he continued moving east, Ren Xiaosu got a day's march ahead of the Razor Sharp Company behind him. But that did not really matter since he could slowly make his way back and find the Razor Sharp Company after he had killed the sniper. He was no longer particularly worried about that sniper anymore. The mental state of a soldier on the battlefield was not unbreakable.

After the sniper had twice witnessed his comrades getting killed by the enormous Brambles, he was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

It was fortunate that he was a sniper, as having a strong mentality was always one of the key areas of training. As such, he could still keep his cool and continue fleeing.

If a normal soldier had witnessed such a terrifying scene, they would be terrified.

Many people who have not been in battle before would think there was no reason to be afraid of death. Even if their comrades were all dead, they would still fight to the bitter end.

But in fact, when they saw their comrades dying one after another next to them, the fear of an unknown death approaching would suddenly envelop them and devour all of those heroic words. They would not even have the ability to think properly.

This was what war was all about.

So the mental fortitude of recruits was completely different from that of veterans who had been in battle before.

Ren Xiaosu carefully followed the sniper. Even though he knew well that the sniper had already lost his will to resist, he was definitely not the only enemy hiding in this mountain range.

After rolling down the slope, the sniper did not even care to check for cuts or fractures and just fled to the eastern base as quickly as he could. The sniper rifle he was carrying in his hands felt particularly heavy as well.

The Zong Consortium sniper kept thinking about how to resolve his current predicament. He would definitely get summoned to a court martial after he returned.

He was the one who had called for reinforcements, and headquarters sent him two companies of guerrillas as requested. However, the guerrilla companies both encountered ambushes one after the other while he escaped alive.

The military police would probably take him away to be interrogated once he returned to the military base to see if he might be a spy.

To be honest, not even some spies could achieve what he did on the battlefield to such great effect.

Even if the military police ended up discharging suspicions of him being a spy, he would still end up a target for criticism for dereliction of duty. His bright future was definitely gone. It was all over the moment he opened fire on that shadow.

The sniper froze. While he was thinking about his situation, he seemed to have wandered into a clearing. This was a sniper's taboo!

Even though the clearing only measured a short five meters in size!
