"Boom, boom, boom!" Countless explosions erupted on the mountainside, resembling gigantic fireworks blooming in the night sky. The red glow, amidst the white snow, appeared eerie and terrifying, as if the entire night had been awakened by the blasts, the whole sky shattered, and even the earth below seed to tremble.
The resounding explosions thrilled Luo Zheng and the others who were retreating at high speed. Their steps beca even stronger, fearing the avalanche might reach them. But for the enemies within the explosion zone, it was a different story. Their faces turned pale. The gunfire may not trigger an avalanche, but certainly, the explosions on the cliffs above would.
The enemies couldn't comprehend how their adversaries acquired so many bombs. Could just over thirty people carry so many grenades? The denial of this fact was impossible, but the reality was harsh. The enemy officer watched the explosions on the cliffs with a pale face and closed his eyes in agony. In front of nature, human power is so insignificant, utterly negligible.
The explosions created a powerful shockwave, forming a long snow trench on the cliff. The surrounding snow layers began to loosen, and soon the snow above started sliding downwards. Realizing the avalanche was imminent, the enemies in the valley were filled with panic, quickly turning and running, without bothering to pursue anymore.
Thus, those who reacted slowly were knocked down and trampled to death; those who ran slower were pushed aside. The ones rushing forward believed there was no turning back. With gritted teeth, they sprinted desperately ahead, only to be t with countless precise bullet shots.
Panic, endless panic spread over the valley, carrying despair and screams, along with the wails of those trampled to the ground. In this mont, the enemy forces, who were brimming with high spirits and murderous intent, beca completely demoralized and collapsed. When chunks of snow started falling above their heads, the panic erupted fully, and everyone desperately rushed out of the valley, causing even more chaos as people crowded each other, slowing the escape.
"Rumble!" A significant number of snow layers began collapsing, forming a montum. This montum combined into a thundering rush, like thousands of horses galloping. Enormous waves of snow and ice fell down, hitting people hard on their heads, burying them instantly.
More snow and ice rolled down in massive waves, roaring like a furious sea. The snowstorm's sound was sharp and deafening, bewildering the mind and making people feel nauseated. So already terrified by the detonations squatted down, covering their heads and bleeding from their orifices.
Soon, it seed as if the entire night sky was shrouded in ice and snow. People in the valley looked up, seeing nothing but snow crashing down, unable to see the sky. It felt as if a prehistoric beast had opened its massive mouth, with a devouring montum. Everyone filled with despair, shouting sothing, but their voices drowned by the avalanche's sonic booms.
Massive snow blocks crashed down fiercely, like monstrous waves crashing on the bodies of the enemies in the valley, stirring up countless flying snowflakes, yet no trace of the enemies remained. The broad and long valley was overnight buried under ice and snow, with a thick layer reaching dozens of ters high.
Snowflakes danced wildly in the sky, covering everything, while the enemies vanished without a trace. On the other side of the valley, Luo Zheng and the others watched in stunned silence, their faces full of shock, unable to speak. In the face of nature, even being ard to the teeth seed so insignificant.
After a while, everyone reacted, looking at Luo Zheng with admiration. Wu Jin excitedly shouted, "Well done, brothers, well done." He then looked at Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng knew what Wu Jin wanted to ask and, after so thought, said, "The Mountain Division's average troops likely won't survive. Snow Bear's n, familiar with snow combat, should have ways to escape, but they can't stay hidden too long, or they'll suffocate. Even if they survive this powerful avalanche, they'll be in a sorry state. They are probably hidden under the snow, trying to find a way out. We should rush in and capture prisoners."
"Right, brothers, get the ropes ready. Catch whoever cos out." Wu Jin shouted excitedly.
"Yes." Everyone answered excitedly and charged forward. The enemies who had chased them all over the mountains were now buried in snow, just thinking about it was exhilarating.
Luo Zheng didn't have to worry about capturing prisoners. Ghost Hand, Snow Leopard, and Mountain Eagle led their n up, which was enough. Wu Jin approached with a grin, patted Luo Zheng on the shoulder, and gave a thumbs up, sincerely praising, "Well done, this move is enough to make the Russians spit blood."
"Precise calculation, steady progress, I'm convinced," Snow Fox said sincerely.
"You're familiar with snow battles, how many do you think could survive?" Luo Zheng asked Snow Fox.
"An avalanche causes two types of injuries. One is the sonic boom, which can make those nearby bleed from the orifices, and those a bit further can be stunned. We barely managed from hundreds of ters away, let alone those below. Another is suffocation; buried under snow, there's not enough oxygen to breathe," Snow Fox explained.
"Can Snow Bear avoid it?" Wu Jin curiously asked.
"Snow Bear is trained to resist avalanches. They know how to use surrounding conditions to avoid them. For example, the sonic boom—they can block their ears and scream loudly to ease the pressure, reducing the sonic damage. When buried, they'll hold their breath, dodge, or even use comrade's bodies for protection from the direct crushing blow. They'll then dig out using military knives. However, severe injuries are inevitable."
"So many tricks, you must explain them to later. If I encounter it next ti, I'll know how to escape," Luo Zheng exclaid in surprise and curiosity.
"Sure, as long as you value my skills, I won't hold anything back," Snow Fox responded earnestly.
"Then I'll thank you on behalf of the brothers in the Fourth Squadron," Luo Zheng replied gratefully with a smile.
Soon, indeed, soone erged from the snow layer. Everyone rushed forward, capturing them and tying them with ropes. More people crawled out of the snow, and everyone excitedly seized the prisoners—crucial assets for rescuing their brothers. The more they captured, the better. The victory filled them with newfound hope, and everyone was ecstatic.
Watching this scene, Wu Jin breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Surviving this avalanche is no small feat. They'll beco bargaining chips in future negotiations. Well done."
"This avalanche isn't particularly large, just enough to cover this group. There are even more terrifying ones, falling from over a thousand-ter-high peaks. The sonic boom alone can knock down people, and the snow's impact can crush soone to death," Snow Fox reminded.
"So powerful? Best avoid encountering such situations in the future. We've captured over thirty prisoners now; if no more co out in a few minutes, then there's likely no one left," Luo Zheng said, looking at the prisoners seriously.
