Chapter 855: The Path of Retreat (2)
“Are you stupid or stupid? We still need to walk dozens of miles. If we turn on the lights now, how long do you think we can last?”
He Chenguang shouted sternly.
A soldier who didn’t know his place and spoke up at the wrong time was simply a tumor in the team.
The soldier clearly had a deep resentment.
” We’re a regular army, yet we’re in such a sorry state here. What a joke!”
As he said that, the soldier started to laugh.
This person was probably driven crazy by the current environment.
Qin Yuan thought to himself.
He slowly stopped and put down the old man on his back.
He slowly walked up to this person and looked at him with a sharp gaze.
The soldier looked at Qin Yuan in front of him with a panicked expression.
The scene just now was just him expressing his dissatisfaction with the current environment. He could not help but vent his emotions. He did not want to provoke the leader of the team. He did not expect Qin Yuan to hear it.
He quickly apologized,
“I’m sorry! Captain Qin! I was too impulsive! I shouldn’t have said such negative words to disrupt the morale of the army! It was my fault!
I’m sorry!”
He hurriedly apologized.
Qin Yuan had no intention of forgiving him.
If apologizing was useful, would they still be walking dozens of kilometers here?
“What did you just say?”
Qin Yuan narrowed his eyes and asked.
“I… I didn’t say anything…”
The soldier’s tone was obviously very low.
“I heard it clearly. Who did you say was in a sorry state? I’ll give you one minute to organize your words and say it again.”
“I’m sorry! I was wrong!”
The soldier almost cried.
He immediately knelt on the ground and apologized to Qin Yuan.
Qin Yuan knew the other party’s regret, but such a person who disturbed the morale of the army had to be punished. Otherwise, it would be difficult to calm the morale of the army.
“First of all, you spouted nonsense without permission. This is the first crime. Second, you contradicted your superior. This is the second crime.”
“Since you want to admit your mistake, I won’t make things difficult for you. You can use your running speed to be a scout at the front and check the road ahead for us.”
Qin Yuan said in a low voice.
“Ah! Yes!”
Although the soldier was very sad, he agreed without hesitation.
Qin Yuan understood that although he had made a mistake, in the current situation, he could not use physical punishment here. He could use the punishment in a more accurate way. It just so happened that the team was maintaining a slow marching speed. Now that they had this scout, they could at least guarantee that they would be safer than before.
“Go! Report to me the road condition of one kilometer ahead in five minutes.”
Qin Yuan said coldly.
“Yes, sir!”
The soldier ran forward dejectedly.
Just like that, with the addition of a Scout in front of them, everyone returned to their previous silence. They marched silently for more than ten minutes, and they did not encounter any obstacles or difficulties along the way.
“How rare! I didn’t encounter any problems even after walking such a long distance.”
He Chenguang walked to Qin Yuan’s side and said to him.
“I’m also a little surprised. I don’t think I’m used to being so safe.”
Qin Yuan said with a frown.
The old man on his back had been cultivating with his eyes closed.
Now that she had woken up and heard the conversation between Qin Yuan and He Chenguang, she interrupted,
“In my opinion, this is also abnormal.”
“Sir, you’re awake?”
He Chenguang exclaimed.
“Yes, I was indeed tired just now, so I took a nap.”
” Although they were also severely injured, in my opinion, they definitely won’t let it go. Dong Zhejun isn’t that kind of open-minded person.”
the old man said with a frown.
“Do you think he will pursue us?”
He Chenguang asked.
” Definitely. Moreover, they’ve probably already sent out their troops and will catch up to us soon.”
“It was definitely them who destroyed our car just now. They were just some scouts who didn’t dare to act rashly against us. He will definitely catch up to us.”
The old man frowned and looked worried.
“This… We have to be prepared for battle.”
He Chenguang turned to look at Qin Yuan.
Qin Yuan also frowned.
He was already mentally prepared for this. It was only a matter of time before the other party caught up to him.
After all, there were many injured people on his side. No matter what, the other party would not let go of this excellent opportunity.
“How is our combat strength now?”
Qin Yuan turned to ask He Chenguang.
“We did a rough check just now. Our combat power is only about 70% of what it was when we came. If the other party comes here to start a battle, there’s a high chance that they won’t be able to defeat him.”
He Chenguang confessed.
Qin Yuan frowned.
“Call Green Snake over.”
He Chenguang went to the front and called Green Snake over. He was playing with the white wolf just now.
“Green Snake, do you know that the pursuers behind us are about to arrive?”
“Of course, I had a premonition just now. Do you think I’m that stupid?”
Green Snake said unhappily.
“Then why are you having so much fun with your little friend?”
“What can I do?”
“I’m still waiting for you to make the decision! I’m not the leader of the logistics company!”
Green Snake retorted.
Qin Yuan raised his eyebrows and did not say anything else.
“Now is not the time to argue. I called you over to discuss our next move.”
“Do you have any good suggestions or solutions?”
Qin Yuan looked at Green Snake.
Qin Yuan asked this because Green Snake had subdued this white wolf. Perhaps it could create another miracle.
“Like I said just now, I’m also at an absolute disadvantage like you. What can I do? Besides, I’m not a person who relies on my brain.”
Green Snake spread his hands and said.
Qin Yuan saw that he still did not understand what he meant, so he turned his head to look in the direction of the white wolf.
When Green Snake saw Qin Yuan’s actions, it immediately understood what he meant.
” You’re saying that the white wolf might be able to do it?”
“Yes, you know that we are currently heavily injured. If we really want to fight, it can be said that our chances of winning are not very high. However, with its help, we might be able to turn the rotten into the miraculous…”
As he spoke, Qin Yuan’s eyes revealed a look of hope.
Green Snake’s heart trembled. He really did not expect the white wolf to have such a magical effect.
However, on second thought, it was also because he had not thought it through. That white wolf had huge tactical value.
“Can’t you communicate with him? Can you discuss any good ideas with him?”
Qin Yuan suggested.
“That’s right! Just now, it was also a wolf that led the way and opened up a bloody path for us. I believe that this time, it will definitely bring us good luck!”
He Chenguang echoed.
Green Snake looked at their eager eyes and felt embarrassed to refuse.
“Alright, I’ll go over and see if it has any reaction. If it’s possible, let it come up with an idea!”
After saying that, Green Snake turned around and left. It returned to the front of the team and discussed with the white wolf.
“This time, I believe it will definitely help us!”
Qin Yuan smiled.
” Now, I suggest we turn off all the lights and wait here for them to fall into our trap.”
The old man behind Qin Yuan said.
” Because, rather than struggling in front of us, it’s better to be fully prepared here and wait for the arrival of the great battle.”
When everyone heard this, they were all stunned.
That’s right, before the other party arrived, they would not be able to escape no matter what. If they took too much risk and advanced, it would only put them in an even more dangerous situation!
” All troops, settle down on the spot. Turn off all the lights and prepare for the battle!”
Qin Yuan made a prompt decision and ordered.
After He Chenguang and Geng Hu received the order, they immediately gave the order to their subordinates. Immediately, the entire army stopped in place and entered an emergency preparation state.
“They should be here soon.”
The old man closed his eyes and said in a deep voice.
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard the sound of a horn coming from behind him.
They all knew in their hearts that the great enemy was approaching.
