“And the situation of the Qiu brothers.”
Qin Yuan asked solemnly.
“Yes, I’ll tell you the whole story now while my father is here.”
Vivian said seriously.
“Weren’t we all recuperating in the hospital before?”
“Originally, they went with you, right? Then, they came back.”
Qin Yuan nodded to confirm.
The Qiu brothers had indeed left the group because of an accident and drove Qin Yuan, Green Snake, and the others.
Qin Yuan remembered that they had said that they would look for Qin Yuan and the others after their injuries recovered. After that, he did not contact them anymore.
He did not expect them to be related to Vivian.
“They told me that there’s a situation on your side and they need us to go over and support them immediately.”
” Long Xiaoyun and I don’t have your contact information either. We’ve been in contact with them before and have a good impression of them. We didn’t doubt their words. But later, it turned out that we were too naive.”
Vivian sighed.
“Are they also Xiao Yan’s men?”
“Yes.”
Vivian nodded.
” I don’t know when, but they have already colluded with Xiaoyan.”
“They led us to a desolate place and wanted to capture us alive.”
“Fortunately, Sister Xiaoyun was prepared. She brought weapons and ammunition with her. She used the smoke bomb as a cover and successfully escaped.”
At this point, Qin Yuan could see traces of lingering fear in Weiwei’s eyes.
“Why did they betray us! Weren’t we all working together before?”
Vivian was confused.
“Sometimes, people are like this. There are even situations where they can’t help themselves.”
Qin Yuan pouted.
” I don’t have any good intentions towards them. If I see them, I will definitely take revenge!”
“Yes, our current situation is not optimistic at all.”
Qin Yuan lowered his head and analyzed seriously.
They had thought that they had destroyed three of the enemy’s troops and gained a certain advantage. They did not expect that in the end, there would only be gains and losses. They had even lost some troops. Not only did they not manage to save Geng Hu, but there was even a traitor among them.
How could Qin Yuan be at ease in such a situation?
“We hope that someone will be able to end this war in the future.”
The old man at the side interrupted at this time.
Qin Yuan smiled.
“I remember what I said to you before. I will definitely do it.”
The old man also responded to Qin Yuan with a kind smile.
” I’ve always believed in you, and this time is no exception. Since my daughter has come here, I can’t protect her with my current ability. Now, I solemnly ask you to protect her.”
“In return, I will do my best to repay you.”
the old man said earnestly.
“Thank you for your affirmation. I promise you that I will definitely protect your daughter well.”
Qin Yuan said seriously.
“An old man like me can’t help much. I can only stand behind you and cheer you on.”
“It’s fine. It’s already my greatest honor that you can trust me.”
Qin Yuan said with a smile.
“Alright, now that we’ve agreed, it’s up to you to perform.”
Qin Yuan bid farewell to the old master and Weiwei and returned to the camp.
He Chenguang was gathering all the soldiers and checking their conditions and items, trying to find the traitor hiding in the camp.
Qin Yuan did not disturb him. Instead, he came to the side and watched quietly.
Soon, he had checked all the soldiers.
Qin Yuan walked over and greeted him.
“How was it? Did you find anything?”
Qin Yuan asked.
He Chenguang shook his head helplessly.
“Nothing.”
He Chenguang stuck out his tongue.
“As I expected.”
If they could be exposed so easily, they would not have fallen for the other party’s trick so easily.
“Next, I plan to continue searching for Geng Hu’s whereabouts.”
“Why did you do that?”
He Chenguang asked.
“It’s very likely that we’re being monitored by the other party. If we do this, we’ll be in danger of being schemed against again.”
Qin Yuan shook his head and explained.
” It’s precisely because the other party thinks so that I have to beat him at his own game and make such a decision.”
“It’s to do something unexpected.”
“And this time, I’ve decided to act alone. I won’t make any noise.”
He Chenguang looked worried.
He smiled bitterly and said,
“This is the fourth time you’ve said that.”
“Why? Do you think my plan won’t work?”
“No, I’m just lamenting that the logistics company is relying on you alone.”
He Chenguang voiced his worries.
“Now we have no way out. Success or failure depends on your operation this time.”
” I went to check on our food reserves just now and found out that they were destroyed by the enemy’s spies. In other words, we don’t have any food reserves left.”
Qin Yuan’s eyes twitched for a moment before returning to normal.
“Yes, I understand.”
“Please hold on a little longer. I will definitely bring them back.”
” This is really a desperate battle. The enemy has supply vehicles, and behind us is a cliff.”
“Oh right, Green Snake robbed the other party’s grain carriage previously. We can use this batch of military rations to last for a while.”
He Chenguang said.
“Okay, I’ll go meet up with Green Snake first. I’ll contact you when I arrive. During this period of time, I’ll leave it to you to guard the camp.”
Qin Yuan said.
“Sure, no problem.”
“Oh, right, I couldn’t contact you with the walkie-talkie earlier. What happened?”
Qin Yuan suddenly thought of this and asked.
“Ah, that’s because I lost my walkie-talkie.”
He Chenguang said.
“Lost? When?”
“About half a day ago, when the other party attacked, I lost it while fighting them.”
“Now I’ve changed to a new one.”
As he spoke, He Chenguang took out a new walkie-talkie from his pocket and showed it to Qin Yuan.
Qin Yuan nodded and re-entered his number into his walkie-talkie.
“Remember to keep it well this time. We must keep in close contact in the future.”
“Okay, I got it. You be careful too.”
“How much combat power do we have left?”
Qin Yuan asked before he left.
” After this last round of battle, our combat strength has been reduced from the original three hundred people to around two hundred people.”
“There are still some that have not been counted by Green Snake.”
He Chenguang said truthfully.
Qin Yuan held his chin with his hand and lowered his head slightly to think for a while.
” We’ve been exposed. We have to move.”
“Retreat to five kilometers behind us immediately. Bring all our brothers and abandon this place.”
“I think so too, but according to our current situation, if we evacuate, I’m afraid it will take a lot of time.”
” Because they have a lot of injuries and Old Mr. Yang, they are not good at this kind of operation.”
He Chenguang said worriedly.
“Of course I know, but it’s better than staying here. Do your best to help them. We have to take action immediately.”
” Leave the front to me, and you will be in charge of the rear. You are the last hope of our logistics company.”
Qin Yuan said seriously.
“Mm, I understand. Now we are brothers in need. Success or failure depends on this move! Good luck!”
The two of them shook hands and hugged each other. In the end, Qin Yuan left.
According to the information provided by He Chenguang, Green Snake was fighting with Xiao Yan’s team on the battlefield about two kilometers west of here. If it weren’t for him supporting them there, it was estimated that the logistics company would not only be facing Captain Jin’s team.
Qin Yuan was very surprised. He did not expect Green Snake to lead a team of dozens of people and be able to fight against the other party’s main force, Zhou Xuan, for so long. It was really shocking.
Qin Yuan sped up and arrived at the scene in more than ten minutes.
As expected, thick smoke billowed from the open space in the distance. From time to time, shouts and intense gunfire could be heard.
