Chapter 978 Imminent



Chapter 978 Imminent

The transport team had already received news from the Qingchi Kingdom that a large number of orc soldiers had appeared near the village where Oliver was located.

But the transport team had no other choice.

This transport team is a logistics transport company.

Originally, this company was responsible for providing logistical supplies to a regiment.

Because only the regiment level will be equipped with company-level logistics supply teams.

But today this company has to provide logistical supplies to a battalion-level unit.

It’s not that this battalion is very powerful.

It’s because they are currently facing a situation where they are out of ammunition and food.

The battalion fought four or five good battles during the advance.

Directly tore apart Bachmut's third line of defense.

And the position now occupied by this battalion is a salient.

It greatly tied down the military forces of the surrounding Orc Empire.

So this is why the division commander asked a logistics transport company to directly supply a battalion.

At present, the tank battalion is in a situation of lack of ammunition and fuel.

The Orc Empire on the opposite side also knew the situation of this camp.

So a large number of troops were assembled to prepare for a counterattack.

This salient must be taken down, otherwise this battalion will pose a serious threat to them in the subsequent battle.

The transport company hesitated for a moment after learning that Olivier's village was under attack, and then continued to march to the front line without hesitation.

Because the friendly troops ahead are still waiting for their supplies, I hope Oliver can hold them off...

The commander of the Guards Division also learned of Olivier's predicament, so he immediately contacted the air force base and asked them to send fighter jets for support as soon as possible.

If Olivet's village falls, the transport company will be seriously threatened.

So Olivier's division commander gave Olivier a death order, asking him to defend the village at all costs.

Olivier also wanted to defend, but how could he do so with the few men he had?

The division commander said that he had already mobilized reinforcements from nearby and they would arrive soon.

Olivier could only express helplessness about this.

How fast do you mean?

Oliver didn't know how fast, but he knew the orcs must be faster than them...

The orc commander urged the army in the southeast to launch an attack, while ordering the reinforcements on the way to speed up their march.

Because it's already three o'clock in the morning.

If nothing unexpected happens, the orcs' reinforcements will arrive soon.

If the Orc commander is not a fool, reinforcements will surely arrive at dawn.

The orc commander's brain has begun to work rapidly.

How should he take over the position in front of him?

On the other side, despite the suppression of MG42, more than 200 orcs still rushed into the trenches.

And Oliver and his group only had about twenty people.

At first, Oliver and his men were able to repel the orcs' attack.

But soon, the orcs' numerical advantage made Oliver and his men suffer.

Olivier had called for as much support as possible.

It is obvious now that no one can get any response from crying out to heaven or earth.

Olivier knew that he could only rely on himself now.

Relying on its numerical advantage, the Orc Empire quickly killed all of the 20 or so orcs brought by Oliver.

The third platoon also sent more than 40 soldiers to join the hand-to-hand combat.

With the weapons in their hands, they inflicted great damage to the orcs.

But soon, as the battle progressed, Oliver and his men fell into a disadvantage.

The soldiers in the third row also suffered heavy casualties.

Oliver acted decisively and ordered his soldiers to abandon their position.

If the fighting continues, the entire company will be killed here!

It would be better to evacuate now and retreat into the village to fight a street battle with the enemy.

As long as the village is not lost, they still have the strength to fight!

But if the village is lost, what awaits them will be endless slaughter...

Olivier also notified the first and second rows and asked them to evacuate quickly.

The straight-line distance between the village and the position is no more than 200 meters.

Evacuating now is not a wise option, but it is the only choice...

Oliver decisively chose to give up the outer position, which surprised the orc commander.

But the orc commander did not reveal much expression.

He thought Olivier would hold out, but retreat was indeed an option.

Olivier led his soldiers and retreated into the village.

But the village is not peaceful at the moment.

Because the village chief's grandson has returned to the village and informed all the orcs that the orc army has arrived nearby.

They will soon be able to return to the embrace of the Orc Empire!

Under the instigation of the village chief's grandson, almost all orcs were full of hope for the arrival of the orc army.

Most of the orcs were awake and were watching the two sides fighting in the distance from the village.

Especially when they saw the orcs attacking the position, they all cheered instantly.

But soon they stopped laughing because Olivier was heading towards the village with the remaining soldiers.

The villagers panicked instantly.

Olivier is going to turn the village into a battlefield!

The village chief's grandson acted promptly and clapped his hands, and more than 40 orc soldiers suddenly appeared behind him.

Then he looked at the villagers and said seriously.

"Do you think they will let us go? They are clearly trying to turn this place into a battlefield!

We shouldn’t give up! We must fight them to the end!”

Looking at the orc soldiers behind the village chief's grandson, these orcs instantly felt ambitious and courageous.

What are you afraid of? The Orc Empire soldiers are in the village.

We can catch these orcs in a trap soon.

Isn't it just a hundred orc soldiers?

Olivier brought his soldiers to the entrance of the village and was assigning tasks to them.

At this time, the second platoon leader found Olivier and explained to him the officer's abstract operation just now.

When Olivier heard this, he became furious.

Damn it, I was fighting hard in the front and I was wondering why the second row didn’t come?

I didn't expect that I would be delayed by you, a bastard!

Olivier was furious.

This is a typical case of using chicken feathers as a token of authority and thinking oneself to be very powerful.

After finding out the whole story, Olivier caught the officer and beat him up.

At this time, the soldiers who were sent to the village to search for the battlefield also returned.

The soldiers reported to Oliver that there was no trace of orcs in the entire village.

It was as if all the orcs had disappeared.

When Olivier heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

Something bad is going to happen!

Olivier didn't care about the officer he kicked to the ground, and immediately ordered the soldiers to disperse.

But it was too late, more than 40 guns were pointed at Olivier and his men.

They had already aimed at their respective goals...

(Good afternoon, I seem to have the flu (>﹏<))
