CHAPTER 137: CHAPTER 119 GIVE ’EARTHLINGS’ A TASTE OF THEIR OWN MEDICINE! (3.8K)

Looking at the interaction in the live stream, Fang Ming pulled up the introduction of the [Moscow Defenders Medal].

[Moscow Defenders Medal]

[This was a war concerning the survival of the Soviet Union, and also the Imperial’s first defeat.....]

[....]

[Post-war statistics show that the casualties on both sides reached around 1.5 million (Imperial casualties around 500,000, Soviet Union casualties around 1 million)]

[Note: In the Battle of Moscow, leading a squad in a guerrilla war, persevering for 15 days, breaking through the encirclement of the Imperial armored forces.]

[Achievement conditions: 15/15 (days)]

[Note: We must stop the Imperial army, we have nowhere to retreat! For behind us.... is our Moscow.]

[This medal is one of the three necessary for a player to enter the Hall of Fame.]

Fang Ming couldn’t help but smile, but his tone also carried some anguish:

"Brothers!"

"15 days, do you know what these 15 days were like?!"

"Finally completed it!!!"

Looking at the introduction of the war with over 1.5 million casualties on the medal, Fang Ming didn’t have much concept, but these 15 days of guerrilla warfare were really tough.

Halfway through, it snowed heavily, with temperatures below minus twenty or thirty degrees, entangled with the Imperial troops for so many days. Luckily, the prompt of completion arrived on the last day.

However, in this current state, it was apparently impossible to escape.

Fang Ming tried to move his body, but his lower half had lost sensation, and the bullet holes on his legs were bleeding, staining the surrounding snow red.

In the distance.

The sounds of the Imperial soldiers’ search and barking of military dogs closed in. Fang Ming reached into his pocket with a trembling hand and took out a box of cigarettes.

Fang Ming took one out and put it in his mouth, his other hand reaching for the matches:

"Yesterday I watched a video, saw a guy charge at a tank, looked pretty cool, remember to record this from multiple angles for me, that feeling of calmly facing death...."

Bang——!

With a gunshot, Fang Ming’s movements stopped.

A bloody hole appeared on his neck, his throat involuntarily made a ’ho-ho’ sound, then his body fell to the right, completely lifeless.

Live stream.

Fang Ming’s vision went black, returning to the main interface.

The cold, numb feeling in the game instantly vanished, restoring to a normal state:

"Damn?!"

"What the hell happened to the calm death?!"

"These Imperial soldiers have no sense of honor."

"Why did they shoot me without hesitation?"

Barrage in the live stream floated by.

[Dying of laughter, did you think you were filming a movie? You don’t get time to show off.]

[Be grateful, getting shot and killed was merciful. With the few people you led, those Imperial soldiers would have beaten you to pulp if caught.]

[Exactly, if I was the searching Imperial soldier, catching you would mean beating you eight times a day.]

[The guy who smoked and charged a tank was hiding in a trench, the Imperial soldiers didn’t see him. You’re smoking right in front of them, of course they’ll shoot you.]

Reading the barrage, Fang Ming could only sigh:

"Movies lie to you."

There’s no mutual respect on the battlefield, when you meet, it’s a bullet to end it.

In hindsight.

Spending half a month exhausting the Imperial forces, if he were searching for such an enemy, he’d probably shoot first upon meeting.

Fang Ming shook his head, then opened the [Medal Library].

Several medals were already lit up inside, all settled during this period in the game, including the [Battle of Kiev] and [Battle of Britain].

But they were just small badges, the focus was on the [Normandy Landing Medal] and the [Moscow Defenders Medal].

Once he obtained the [Stalingrad Medal], he could enter the [Hall of Fame] and be listed with the World War II celebrities.

Looking at the already activated two badges, Fang Ming spoke:

"I wonder what difficulty the challenge for the last [Stalingrad Medal] will be."

As he spoke, Fang Ming clicked on the unactivated [Stalingrad Medal].

[Stalingrad Medal]

[This is in the history of World War II... unprecedented brutal street fighting earned it the nickname ’World War II Meat Grinder’.]

[....]

[....]

[Note: In the Battle of Stalingrad, lead a 50-man assault team, utilizing the terrain of the ruins to conduct brutal street fighting against the Imperial forces, delaying their advance, surviving for more than 10 days.]

[Achievement conditions: 0/10 (days)]

[Note: Hurray! For Stalin! For the Motherland!]

[This medal is one of the three necessary for a player to enter the Hall of Fame.]

Looking at the introduction of the medal, Fang Ming clicked his tongue:

"The casualties here are higher than in the Battle of Moscow, and the ’Meat Grinder’ nickname is pretty terrifying. But the challenge duration is reduced by a third, just 10 days needed."

"And can lead a 50-man assault team."

"If these assault team members are veterans, then surviving 10 days shouldn’t be much of a problem, after all, it’s equivalent to a reinforced platoon."

"It’s definitely easier than in Moscow, leading a dozen people while being chased by the Imperial armored forces."

Fang Ming analyzed with his streaming friends.

[Normandy Landing Medal] requires dying dozens of times, eventually finding good teammates to complete.

But [Moscow Defenders Medal] had so many challenges across the internet, yet few had succeeded so far, and Fang Ming was one of those who challenged early.

Half of the time there wasn’t snow, not the minus twenty or thirty-degree environment.

And now, new players challenging it would directly face the freezing minus twenty or thirty degrees, hunted by Imperial armored units and soldiers, with military dogs searching.
