Anti-War Game: Starting from Normandy Campaign-Chapter 550 - 263: The Hundred Regiments Offensive and the Strategic Importance of Jingxing Coal Mine
At this moment.
It wasn’t just the Japanese officer at the end of the footage who was in disbelief.
Many Blue Star netizens watching the CGI fell silent too, as though they’ve seen many live streams, some even eating bark and roots.
But the direct experience here was extraordinarily shocking.
Yet the most shocking was Commander Yang Jingyu’s heroic sacrifice before his death.
A single line, "I am sufficient," surpasses a thousand words.
The impact it brings far exceeds other CGI.
Fang Ming took quite a while to react, never expecting Commander Yang Jingyu to sacrifice himself so heroically. He paused before speaking:
"No, I have to kill those traitors."
"I can’t let this anger inside me go."
Although he knew that everyone’s storyline was independent, Fang Ming truly couldn’t sleep without killing those traitors in his own plot.
The more he thought, the angrier he got.
He directly exited the campaign library, once again choosing to start, selecting the Northeast Region to see if he could find an opportunity to eliminate those traitors.
....
On the other side.
In Yu Feng’s live stream.
He temporarily switched back from the [Cold War Clouds] DLC version to play the main World War II.
Although he played through it completely last year.
He was familiar with the major events and battles on ’Earth,’ but this time he returned to play the ’Republic faction.’
Experiencing the storyline from 1940.
At this moment.
In the [Single Player Story Mode], Yu Feng joined the Red Side’s team and received orders to scout ahead.
However, compared to other live streams.
Yu Feng knew quite a lot of intelligence, and through personal analysis, he figured out some things.
He watched the trains moving below, carrying carloads of coal, yet completely unnoticed while disguised, Yu Feng just watched the heavily guarded Japanese trains leave.
Then he took out paper and pen to record and continued to stake out.
However, he didn’t stop talking, chatting with the live stream’s fans about the current war situation on ’Earth’:
"..."
"..."
"Europe has stopped aid to the Republic now."
"This period can already be considered the darkest hour."
"The Imperial has just blitzed France, and is now sending planes to bomb London, while the Republic has the puppet government supported by Japan and the Wang puppet Nationalist government."
"We can say if we don’t know the subsequent plot, assuming the perspective of people in this era."
"Both domestic and abroad, despair is overwhelming."
"On the Blue Side, surrender talks are frequent; in short, the current situation is not optimistic."
Yu Feng spoke while looking at his drawn map and recorded information, feeling troubled:
"The Japanese patrol train never stops."
"Every few kilometers there is a fortress, spreading across thousands of kilometers of railway lines, scattering the Red Side’s bases."
"A large-scale action by the Red Side is easily exposed."
"Avoiding detection requires capturing dozens or even hundreds of miles, bypassing through mountains and forests."
"The Japanese policy here is even more extreme."
"Villages are separated, with dedicated soldiers patrolling."
"Some villagers try to send some supplies to the Red Side, but often get spotted just outside the village, and the consequences... needless to say."
"Implementing the scorched earth policy against areas with Red Side presence."
"Just in the first half of this year, they’ve conducted five sweeps, almost once a month."
"The situation is dire."
"Japan seems to have noticed something, and has significantly increased patrols."
Yu Feng continued speaking while lying motionlessly in disguise.
Compared to the soon-to-be-opened [Hundred Regiments Battle] scenario, Blue Star player’s single mode storyline, although cannot be played online.
They can experience the upcoming Hundred Regiments Battle in other aspects.
For instance, now he’s working as a scout, exploring the Japanese’s defenses, layouts, fortress positions, etc.
Once everything is meticulously documented, it will prepare for the imminent battle within the storyline.
Yet in the [Single Player Story] mode, it’s solely reliant on individual skill.
After all, some streamers due to carelessness or accidentally during reconnaissance got discovered by the Japanese, resulting in restarting and randomizing to a new location.
All previous efforts were wasted.
Thus, missions must be handled with great caution.
Also to avoid detection by the Japanese.
Yu Feng lay there until dark.
Until the moon rose.
Using the faint moonlight to begin retreating.
Only arriving back to find his troop’s village by dawn.
At this moment.
Seeing Yu Feng return.
The sentry joyously greeted while maintaining vigilance of surroundings, quickly letting Yu Feng in, then hiding again.
Inside the village.
A secluded courtyard.
Still rustling with some sounds.
Luckily, this was at the innermost part of the village.
Even if there were incidents outside, they were prepared to avoid being discovered.
Within the courtyard.
Were soldiers of the Red Side, rough-clothed guerrillas, and civilians, all preparing for the imminent battle.
Everyone worked in an orderly fashion.
Some sharpening swords, spears, others cautiously crafting simple landmines.
This scene.
Made many Blue Star netizens feel dazed.
Indeed.... it’s too difficult.
Watching the spears and landmines in the imagery, compared to Yu Feng’s side scouting a bit, the Japanese’s roaring patrol cars with rifles, machine guns.
