Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon!-Chapter 413 - 284: The Village
East Qin State.
With the deployment of Jieke Group forces, a massive military contingent of eighty thousand entered the northern forests, engaging in battle with six warlord factions.
Bang!
In the forest, Jiasa Mountain calmly pulled the trigger of his rifle. A bullet pierced the forehead of a warlord soldier hidden in the bushes, planning an ambush.
Bang! Bang!
He fired again, and two warlord soldiers ambushing from a tree fell headlong.
The next moment, Jiasa Mountain rolled swiftly; several bullets hit the spot where he had just stood.
Jiasa Mountain returned fire, his bullets sweeping accurately across, accompanied by screams, and a hand grenade flew past, eventually bringing everything back to silence amidst the smoke.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Jiasa Mountain replaced his magazine and picked up his radio to report, "Cleared thirteen warlord soldiers, please report on the remaining enemy movements."
After a few seconds, a voice came through the radio.
"Jiasa Mountain, eight kilometers ahead to your right, there is another battle erupting; support there,"
"Understood."
Jiasa Mountain collected a few magazines from the ground, swallowed a Strengthening Pill, then quickly ran toward the position mentioned over the radio.
As a second-class Super Soldier, he had been sweeping missions in the Northern Border Mountains for three days.
It first started when six warlord factions from the Northern Territory infiltrated the mountains of East Qin State, but after the decision by Jieke Group to dispatch forces, within just two days, not only were the invaders driven out of East Qin State, but the troops also pushed into areas like Ke Qin, Guogan, and Wa Bang in the Northern Territory, turning the tide of the battle.
Swiftly rushing to the target area, as he neared, Jiasa Mountain heard intense gunfire.
There, a First-class Super Soldier clad in Alloy Battle Armor, wielding a Gatling gun, was striding forward. The warlord soldiers in his path were being shattered, their limbs detached, their viscera scattered.
Behind this First-class Super Soldier were several second-class and third-class Super Soldiers providing support, along with a platoon of infantry.
The over one hundred warlord soldiers facing them had completely collapsed. Their attempt at guerrilla warfare was a joke in front of the Super Soldiers’ heightened senses and sharpshooting.
Not to mention the presence of a First-class Super Soldier, a level of combat power that had once been the trump card of Steel Camp.
"Run, we can’t fight, we simply can’t."
"It’s a First-class Super Soldier, how can such a being be here?"
"My leg’s broken, hurry and drag me with you, don’t leave me behind! Don’t kill me, please don’t kill me, I’m willing to surrender."
The warlord soldiers scattered in terror, accustomed to guerrilla fighting in the forests, carrying few Heavy Weapons and relying mainly on lighter arms.
Who would have expected to encounter a First-class Super Soldier? Their Alloy Battle Armor was virtually impervious to ordinary rifles.
The few rocket launchers and heavy machine guns they carried were quickly neutralized by the Super Soldiers, leaving them with no means to penetrate the enemy defenses.
The already frail combat will of the warlord soldiers crumbled after a dozen casualties; the remaining soldiers either surrendered on the spot or turned and ran.
Seeing this, Jiasa Mountain joined in the pursuit of the fleeing soldiers.

Half an hour later, in the forest, Jiasa Mountain returned carrying his rifle, with several captives bound hands in tow—sixty-some had been captured.
The combat will of these warlord soldiers was poor; with casualties reaching just ten percent, they either surrendered or broke ranks.
After all, they were an army bred from various illegal and criminal activities, suited only to low-intensity guerrilla wars.
Facing Super Soldiers, their casualty rate soared; they simply couldn’t handle a tough fight.
Similar situations occurred sporadically throughout the Northern Territory: eighty thousand soldiers from the Jieke Group, along with Super Soldiers, engaged in guerrilla warfare around the forests.
The warlord soldiers, once confident in their guerrilla warfare, were harshly disciplined. One after another, their positions and territories were overtaken and garrisons removed, incorporated under the rule of Jieke Group.
Jieke Group’s advance was incredibly smooth, fighting in the vast mountains, in the rapid inland rivers, near numerous villages.
Just the eighty thousand Jieke Security personnel, not to mention the Super Soldiers, alone in terms of personal skill and equipment, far surpassed the numerous warlord soldiers.
Those warlord soldiers, despite all their talk, were raised primarily through various illegal means of extortion, mainly through the profits from Opium.
This earned money firstly satisfied the personal lives and material pleasures of the warlords.
The army was a secondary concern; being equipped with a rifle and a military uniform was considered sufficient for a soldier.
After all, the Chan Country Government Army they were up against was of similar standard, just with more Heavy Weapons, which were also unnecessary in guerrilla warfare in the forests.
Meanwhile, Jieke Group’s soldiers were trained by highly paid, retired military instructors. With Jieke Group’s annual revenue of hundreds of billions of US Dollars, it was nothing to outfit an infantry troop.
An example would be one of Jieke Group’s mechanized infantry squads, where every soldier was equipped with a bulletproof vest and tactical helmet. Each also had an individual communication system.
A squad of ten soldiers possessed an Infantry Fighting Vehicle, eight assault rifles, one light machine gun, and one precision marksman rifle.
Additionally, two soldiers carried gun-mounted grenade launchers, and there were up to three multipurpose single-use rocket launchers and one cloud bomb rocket launcher, which were disposable and thrown away after use. The team was also equipped with corresponding drones.
