Boom! Boom boom!
The booby traps and mines that Zhuoyue had set up on the perimeter went off immediately. The first few soldiers from the Second Battalion who charged forward exploded in clusters of blue paint at their feet, instantly turning them into "dead men".
"Damn it! There's an ambush!"
"Lie down! Lie down!"
The Second Battalion's originally unstoppable offensive momentum was abruptly halted by this sudden "minefield," and their formation instantly fell into chaos.
Jiang Yan saw this scene from the command platform and felt somewhat relieved.
Su An's plan worked.
Although these traps are not very lethal, they are enough to slow down the enemy's attack, disrupt their rhythm, and buy precious defensive time for the main camp.
"Hold on! All units, take note: fire only when the enemy is within range! Conserve ammunition!" Jiang Yan grabbed the walkie-talkie and loudly issued the order. Everything seemed to be developing in an orderly manner according to the script written by Su An.
However, crises always appear in the most unexpected places.
"Reporting to Commander-in-Chief!" A soldier responsible for the No. 3 firing point on the west side scrambled over, his face full of panic. "We...we haven't received our ammunition...the ammunition hasn't been delivered!"
Jiang Yan's heart sank: "Explain clearly! What ammunition hasn't been delivered? Didn't I assign Qiao Lin to be in charge of ammunition supplies for your area?"
"Qiao Lin... Qiao Lin is missing!" The soldier's voice was choked with sobs. "We've been waiting for ages, and we haven't seen a single ammunition box! Our firing position is about to be cut off! The enemy... the enemy seems to have noticed our firepower has weakened, and two groups of them are sneaking towards us!"
What? !
Jiang Yan's mind went blank. He grabbed the binoculars and looked to the west.
Sure enough, a clear area of sparse fire appeared on the defensive fan-shaped area of firing point number three. Battalion number two, like sharks smelling blood, immediately deployed two combat teams, each about seven or eight men, using this opening in a combat formation, taking turns providing cover as they rapidly infiltrated!
Once that position is breached, the enemy can directly penetrate into the heart of the defensive line from the flank, and the entire base's defense system will collapse instantly!
Jiang Yan's blood almost froze at that moment, and an uncontrollable rage surged from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
Just before Su An led the surprise attack team away, after handing over all the plans, the girl suddenly turned back as she was leaving, looked at him with her clear, all-seeing eyes, and calmly said:
"Jiang Yan, be careful of what's inside your own ranks. Sometimes, your own people are more dangerous than your enemies."
At the time, he took it as just a casual reminder.
He never imagined that this prophecy would come true so quickly and so fatally.
Fortunately, he listened to what was said.
Qiao Lin and the soldiers were quickly tied up and taken back to the temporary command post by Zhuo Yue.
All four of them were covered in bright blue paint—they hadn't even had a chance to break through the defense line before Zhuoyue and his men pulled them out and "eliminated" them on the spot.
