173: Chapter 173 The Planner Became a Human?

Wang Ye watched the tank get taken out by two shells and immediately didn't dare to continue charging.

At first, he thought this tank could hold out for quite a while.

He didn't expect it to only last about ten minutes.

He had wasted his trust in this tank; it was truly like feeding it to the dogs.

Fortunately, at this moment, quite a few tanks behind them had shaken off the restrictions of the volcanic ash and were driving towards the mountain.

Seeing these tanks, hope was rekindled in Wang Ye's heart.

But the very next moment, the sound of artillery fire rang out continuously from the mountain, and these tanks had barely advanced a dozen meters before they were struck by anti-tank shells.

Wang Ye didn't know what to say anymore.

It seemed he couldn't count on these tanks.

"Liu Yang, forget it, let's charge. Staying here is as good as death."

After saying this, Wang Ye crawled up from this small pit and crept towards the Little Devils' fortifications ahead.

The battle at the beachhead landing was extremely intense.

However, because the amphibious landing vehicles and tanks were congested together at the beachhead, these vehicles couldn't provide timely support to the US Marines on the front lines.

Wang Ye and Liu Yang caught up with a squad.

Unexpectedly, just as they blended in, they were discovered.

"Which squad are you from? How did you end up here?" The squad leader immediately walked up to the two of them.

"We got separated from our own squad, so we had no choice but to follow you," Wang Ye quickly explained.

Fortunately, this squad leader didn't say anything else and let them follow.

Now, on this entire island, besides the Little Devils, there were only their Marine Corps soldiers.

Their squad had lost quite a few men just now while preparing to charge up the hillside.

On such a chaotic battlefield, it was very common for soldiers to get separated.

The Little Devils' firepower on the mountain was too intense.

They had never felt that this beachhead battle would be so difficult.

Under such fierce firepower, they had just charged to the foot of the mountain when they were beaten back.

Quite a few had charged onto the hillside, but without exception, they had all been wiped out.

The squad leader of this unit took a look at Wang Ye and the other one.

"You two are really lucky. God bless you for being able to survive until you got here."

Hearing the squad leader's words, Wang Ye didn't say anything.

Luck was certainly important, but their own cautious actions were also a very important reason.

Otherwise, if they had just blindly charged forward like those large troops, they would have been dead long ago.

At this moment, he looked towards the beachhead.

The corpses covering the beachhead made Wang Ye's heart jump with fear.

Was that rushing a charge? That was rushing to their deaths.

The Allied Forces' equipment was good, but this landing battle was being fought so difficultly that Wang Ye didn't know how to evaluate it.

If it weren't for his caution, the game would have ended long ago.

"You two keep close to us, don't get left behind again, and watch out for the Little Devils' attacks."

After the squad leader gave the instruction, he waved his hand, signaling everyone to follow.

Wang Ye and Liu Yang followed them forward.

However, the further they walked, the more Wang Ye felt something was wrong.

Why were they still heading up the mountain? Wasn't this just going to their deaths?

Wang Ye suddenly felt some regret about following this unit; they seemed very brave.

Didn't they see the soldiers behind them hiding on the beachhead?

At this moment, the squad leader continued to charge forward; he didn't believe that if they couldn't take it once, they wouldn't succeed the second time.

Just as they reached the foot of the mountain, it seemed some Little Devils on the mountain noticed them.

Wang Ye looked up and saw a dark opening in a bunker aimed in their direction.

Alarm bells rang out in Wang Ye's heart, and he quickly pulled Liu Yang to run to the side.

Liu Yang was pulled along, looking completely confused.

Before he could react, the sound of guns and artillery rang out from the mountain.

Inside the bunker, which was only forty or fifty meters away, the Little Devils' machine gunner was pouring firepower onto Wang Ye and the others below.

He had deliberately let these Americans come over; at such a close distance, let's see where they could run.

Wang Ye pulled Liu Yang to dodge here and there, but their dodging speed was no match for the bullets.

In the end, a few bullets struck his back.

A wave of pain swept through his entire body.

Wang Ye felt numb; he knew he shouldn't have followed them in the charge—the faster they charged, the faster they died.

Just when Wang Ye thought the game was over, he discovered that he hadn't died yet.

He lay on the ground, and the Little Devils didn't seem to be continuing to strafe in his direction.

Beside him, Liu Yang was already lying on the ground, motionless.

Seeing this, Wang Ye thought Liu Yang had kicked the bucket.

Unexpectedly, the next second, Liu Yang rolled his head over and looked at him.

"Brother Wang, are you okay?"

"I'm not okay, my back hurts a bit," Wang Ye said, his brows furrowed.

He had been shot in the back; although he didn't know where he was hit, it hurt a bit.

"Damn, Brother Wang, your back is bleeding so much, I feel like you're a goner," Liu Yang said, staring wide-eyed at Wang Ye's back as blood gushed out.

With that amount of bleeding, if they didn't stop it quickly, he was definitely done for.

"Really?" Wang Ye couldn't feel the bleeding at the moment, but he could feel that he was getting a bit weak.

"Really, I'm not lying to you, Brother Wang."

As Liu Yang said this, he flipped over and rolled towards Wang Ye.

Soon, he arrived beside Wang Ye.

He pulled out bandages and hemostatic medicine from his person, but he didn't know how to use them.

Just when he was at a loss, a simplified operation procedure suddenly appeared before him.

Liu Yang followed the simplified process, and the next moment, the medicine and bandages were applied.

Not only that, but the blood on Wang Ye's back also stopped quickly.

"You can play like this?"

Liu Yang was a bit surprised, and the audience in the livestream room was equally shocked when they saw this scene.

"What's the situation? Can this operation be automatically simplified?"

"Good grief, the last game was so hardcore, this game has started to simplify."

"This simplification is good; it's impossible to play if it's too hardcore."

"That's right, if the online mode is done like this, it's fun. You can even heal; finally, you don't just croak when you get injured."

At this time, Wang Ye felt that he could move.

He was pleasantly surprised; he thought this game was over for him, but he didn't expect Liu Yang to actually save him.

"Liu Yang, man, you know how to use these things?" Wang Ye asked, looking at Liu Yang in surprise.

"No, Brother Wang, I don't know how to use them, but a moment ago a simplified operation diagram appeared in front of me. I followed the diagram, and I didn't expect it to actually work," Liu Yang quickly explained.

"Is that so? Did the developers finally act human?"

At this moment, the audience in the livestream room all burst out laughing upon hearing Wang Ye's words.

"It really is, the developers finally acted human."

"Brother Wang is as humorous and funny as ever."

"Isn't that right? The developers of the last game didn't act human—it was all tragedy and hardcore. Has this second installment finally seen a change of heart?"

Liu Yang was also amused by Wang Ye's words.

At this moment, Wang Ye looked not far away.

The squad leader who had just been leading them in the charge was now lying on the ground, covered in blood and filth.

At this moment, the Little Devils' machine gunner's attention was no longer on their side.

Seeing this, Wang Ye took a deep breath.
