Chapter 45: Chapter 41 Flaming Sky

```

While Wang Zhong commanded Tank 422 to move towards the village, the combat engineer squad had just cleared a house with a flamethrower.

Wang Zhong, while playing Company of Heroes 2, liked to use flamethrowers, yet the game's flamethrowers, although powerful, were not invincible.

The Company of Heroes series of games featured a retreat mechanism: Press the T key, and your troops would sprint away (the latest third installment seemed to have changed the key). If confronted with a flamethrower, pressing T fast enough could save the burning troops and allow them to retreat back to base engulfed in flames.

But reality was not so forgiving; in real life, those hit by a flamethrower would lose their combat effectiveness instantly, left to roll on the ground unable to do anything else.

Only those with extremely tenacious willpower could continue to fight while engulfed in flames.
