Bab 57: Chapter 51 Peripheral Defense

Wang Zhong had hoped the wildfire would blaze through and blow away the Prosen people.

But he soon discovered the enemy had used bulldozers to clear a firebreak, and any scattered flames were quickly extinguished with hand grenades.

As a child, Wang Zhong watched "The Little Soldier Zhang Ga," where the guerrillas set the enemy's watchtower on fire, only to have the enemy put out the fire with hand grenades. Initially, he thought it was an over-the-top anti-Japanese drama, but later he heard from old veterans that it was actually true.

It turned out that even children's films back then could have veterans who had real combat experience as military consultants, unlike the later anti-Japanese dramas.

It seemed that this wildfire strategy wasn't so easy to use after all.

The fire kept burning until four o'clock in the afternoon.
