Chapter 641 The first stage task (for Xufeng 1/15)
When the sound representing the first phase of the system's mission and the official announcement rang in the heads of the Zhongzhou team members.
It was obviously July weather, and at a time close to noon, a bright sun hung above their heads, causing the temperature to reach thirty-six or seven degrees.
But at this moment, the hearts of everyone in the Zhongzhou Team were filled with a chill.
The kind that makes their whole body shiver from head to toe.
Because the difficulty and punishment of the tasks in this system are unprecedentedly cruel, and they are completely designed to drive everyone in the Central Continent team to death.
In the tasks of the first link of the system, the specific content is as follows:
"Dear Commander Hu Biao, and all members of the Zhongzhou Team, please pay attention to the first phase of this system mission, which is officially released.
First, completely capture the position on the north side of Songzi Mountain before 2 o'clock at noon on July 4, 2044; by then, the number of surviving members of the Zhongzhou team will not be less than 15.
If there are less than 15 people, the mission at this stage will be considered a failure.
As punishment, the system will randomly kill 10 people.
Second, Wu Wenting, the leader of the supplementary regiment of the Honorary First Division, cannot die in this battle; if Wu Wenting dies in battle, it will also be considered a mission failure at this stage.
At that time, 10 people from the Central Continent team will also be randomly killed.
Third, during the first phase of the mission, all members of the Zhongzhou team are not allowed to leave the Songshan Fortress area, within 10 kilometers.
Any member of the Central Continent team who violates this rule will be directly eliminated by the system.
And even after this mission is completed, it cannot be resurrected in the system.
Fourth, based on the fact that in this mission, the system has made certain adjustments in relevant details, and the results of such adjustments will increase the difficulty and punishment of this mission.
In line with the operating rule that the system task difficulty is equal to the reward standard, the rewards for the Zhongzhou Team after completing this mission will also be doubled.
It will be distributed uniformly after the completion of this task.
The above situation is the content of the changes in this system mission. Please inform the commander. Finally, I wish the commander and all members of the Central Continent team immediate success..."
After listening to the above information about the first phase of the system's task, Hu Biao instinctively raised the wrist of his right hand.
I glanced at my wrist and saw the current specific time on the watch that I almost took out for pork.
As a result, I saw the time above, which was already 11:32 am.
That is to say, I understood that the first phase of this mission ended in less than 2 and a half hours. Immediately, cold sweat broke out on Hu Biao's forehead, knowing that this time he was in big trouble.
You must know that the current preparations of the Central Continent team are not only seriously lacking in weapons.
Even because about a dozen members of the fishing and hunting team have not returned yet, the team company is only down to three-quarters of its strength.
But even so, Hu Biao knew that he had to take action immediately, and it was impossible to continue.
There is less than two and a half hours of mission countdown left, which means they may only have one or two opportunities to launch an attack, and any more time will not be enough.
A more critical reason is that who knows how Wu Tuanzuo is doing now, and whether they will be killed by the Japanese if they go later?
If this were the case, the first phase of the mission would immediately be considered a failure.
So after Hu Biao took a deep breath, Hu Biao immediately shouted:
"Attention everyone, gather immediately, then carry weapons in battle formation, run towards the battlefield on the north side of Songzi Mountain, and quickly reinforce Wu Tuanzuo and the others."
Under such an order, there were various reactions on the scene.
Lao Yang, who has always been responsible for checking for leaks and filling in vacancies, or in other words wiping Hu Biao's butt, immediately asked a series of questions about the current team:
"Damn it! There's going to be a war soon.
But what should we do if we don’t have all the weapons? There are also the fishing and hunting teams, they haven’t come back yet, why don’t we just wait for them?”
After hearing Hu Biao's order, many child soldiers immediately picked up shovels, hoes and other tools in their hands and planned to set off together with Captain Hu and Brother Hu to fight the Japanese.
The reason why they are carrying shovels and hoes is that these child soldiers in the baggage regiment basically don't even have a gun in their hands.
Faced with these scenes, Hu Biao immediately made arrangements quickly.
First, he made arrangements like this to Lao Yang in a voice that only two people could hear: "Ignore the fishing and hunting teams.
They will also hear the system prompts and will immediately rush to the battlefield to join us. We will go there first and see the specific situation.
You secretly notify us about the weapons, let everyone use their private money to exchange them, and the team will reimburse them afterwards."
After hearing such a statement, Lao Yang immediately became excited after thinking of some bold operation.
It's a pity that Hu Biao also thought of a key question after a blink of an eye, and immediately added:
"By the way, don't forget to emphasize to everyone that if the total amount of redemption exceeds 100 points of equipment, I will not reimburse you. Please tell those guys to take it easy for me."
After hearing such a statement, Lao Yang couldn't help but sigh.
Knowing that I wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to exchange for some equipment that I had always been coveted, my plan to kill two birds with one stone in combat and collection was completely shattered.
Then, with a flash of inspiration, Hu Biao solved the team's bankruptcy crisis in terms of points.
After turning his head again, he stared at those child soldiers and cursed angrily:
"You don't even have a gun. Why are you following me to your death? Just stay here. As I said, as long as we old men don't die, you young men don't have to go up and fight."
After saying that, he took the fifty or so people present from the 7th Company and began to take action.
Specifically, it was a group of old birds holding tattered rifles who gathered around each other and blocked the sight of others.
They all exchanged their pocket money for weapons from the system mall.
Because Hu Biao was threatened with no reimbursement after he exceeded 100 points, and there was also the consideration of easier replenishment of subsequent bullets. Basically, what they exchanged were some World War II-era soldier equipment.
Hu Biao himself, in addition to exchanging himself for an M1918A2 light machine gun.
They also exchanged for two bazooka rocket launchers, an M18 recoilless rifle, a flamethrower, an 80 mm mortar and some projectiles, as well as some 5 kilograms of explosive bags.
It can be regarded as exchanging some of the most basic offensive equipment for the Central Continent team.
In the past, the Jin-made Thompson submachine guns and Czech-style light machine guns that I had managed to obtain were traded to horse herders and veterans for use.
As for the tattered rifles they were given, after they exchanged them for new weapons, they naturally threw them away as soon as possible and threw them on the ground.
In the end, it took Hu Biao up to 3 minutes to complete the outfit change for the entire 7th company.
Then he led the 56 people behind him and began to jog, approaching the destination.
But after seeing this scene and understanding the situation through Zhou's translator's explanation, war correspondent Ross did not follow him in the end.
Because he knew that going to the front line of the battle was too dangerous and there was no need for him to do so.
So the only thing he did was to pick up the camera in his hand and capture the figures of these people as they set off; at the same time, he muttered in his heart:
