” Captain He, we didn’t complete the mission on time. How are we going to explain to our brothers in the logistics company when we go back?”
The soldier beside him was very worried for him.
“We haven’t failed yet. We were just caught off guard.”
He Chenguang said in a deep voice.
“Now, we still have time to adjust our tactics and carry out the next step.”
“How many brothers have we lost?”
He Chenguang asked.
” Captain, there were about 30 brothers guarding the front line!”
The people below immediately said.
He Chenguang frowned.
This amount was something he found hard to accept.
In this assault, they had lost one-third of their forces. Although it was not a serious injury, it was still a heavy loss.
What should he do?
Their original plan was to trap Daybreak’s men here. They only needed to wait outside. They did not expect the other party to be so resolute and choose a suicidal attack.
As a result, both sides paid a heavy price and could only retreat in the end.
Therefore, things were in a deadlock.
If both sides did not move, then they would continue to confront each other.
If they entered to delay the time, then there was no doubt that the logistics company would gain a huge advantage. After all, Qin Yuan had analyzed the reason in detail before.
Therefore, they did not need to do anything now. They just needed to ensure their own safety.
” Everyone, retreat and defend. Return to our own camp and gather together. Look after your comrades. As long as we can withstand this wave, victory will be ours.”
He Chenguang whispered to everyone.
“Yes, sir! Captain!”
Immediately, the people from the logistics company followed He Chenguang’s instructions and gathered together. They shrank into a hidden spot in the forest and secretly observed the movements of the Daybreak Organization.
After receiving Di Daozhang’s order, Daybreak had also entered a state of alert. Everyone gathered there and began to adjust their ranks.
“Captain! Should we send a distress signal to the organization and ask them to send someone to save us?”
a soldier suggested.
Di Daozhang pondered for a moment.
” No need. First of all, it’s easy for us to leave a gap for the other party. Moreover, it will also make the organization suspicious of us. How can we be sure that this distress signal was sent by us?”
” Let’s rest here for ten minutes. We’ll immediately start moving towards the battlefield ahead.”
Di Daozhang said solemnly.
“Yes, sir!”
Di Daozhang had made up his mind. Although they had obtained a moment of peace, there were still hidden enemies nearby. If he did not deal with them, there would always be a huge rock pressing down on his heart.
Therefore, even if he was leading some of the remaining soldiers and generals, he had to kill his way out.
Soon, ten minutes passed, and they had a short period of peace.
” Have you all rested? Let’s set off for the battlefield ahead immediately.”
Di Daozhang ordered.
“Yes, sir! Captain!”
His subordinates all received the order.
They immediately adjusted their ranks and began to slowly move forward.
Originally, they were only a few dozen meters away from the exit. Now, they sped up and successfully left the Forest of Death.
They arrived at the place where the second team had fought.
As time passed, the fire here had gradually extinguished.
There were only some leaves left on the ground and something indescribable.
There was not a single living being left.
Even warriors who had experienced many things would start to feel nauseous after coming here.
“Damn it! How tragic!”
“This second team is really unlucky! They were all wiped out in such a place! The people of the logistics company are really tragic!”
The soldiers began to discuss.
“Let’s not talk so much. Start checking the surroundings to see if there are any survivors and investigate what happened here.”
Di Daozhang said in a deep voice.
He roughly knew that there had been an intense battle here, but he had to know the details before he could report it to the organization.
Moreover, they had to find out if there were still enemies hiding here.
Although they only had less than 200 men, they had just escaped death and were no longer afraid of death. Moreover, the fifth team had set off at almost the same time as them, so they should be arriving soon.
Soon after, Daybreak’s troops began to search the area carefully.
“Did you find any survivors?”
“No, I’ve searched several places, but I didn’t find a single one!”
“We can investigate the battle here! It was also caused by the explosion!”
The soldiers reported to Di Daozhang.
Di Daozhang nodded slightly.
It was just as he had expected.
It was also because of the carelessness of the second team that they were caught by the other party and were eventually wiped out.
These stupid good-for-nothings!
Di Daozhang cursed inwardly.
Then, Di Daozhang summoned all the soldiers and told them to stop investigating.
“Everyone, come back. We don’t need to continue searching.”
Di Daozhang said loudly to the troops.
“Captain Di! There are survivors here!”
Di Daozhang was about to turn around and leave when he heard a voice from afar.
Di Daozhang frowned. If there were survivors, they might know some information about the other party.
Di Daozhang immediately rushed over without saying anything.
A few minutes later, they arrived at the location of the sound.
As expected, he saw a Daybreak soldier lying on the ground, his lower body charred and on the verge of death.
This person was almost unable to hold on any longer and was only emitting some weak aura.
“Drink some water! You’ll be fine!”
Di Daozhang said loudly as he approached the other party.
Then, he handed the water to the other party and let him drink it.
“Quickly bandage his wound!”
With that, Di Daozhang took the lead and took out bandages to bandage the other party’s wounds.
Some of the charred body tissues in his lower body were emitting a foul smell.
This person was already helpless.
Di Daozhang frowned. He knew that the other party did not have much time left, but he had to get some useful information from him.
He lowered his head to the soldier’s mouth and whispered,”
“Comrade, can you hear me? We will definitely get you out of here.”
“What happened just now? Can you tell me? This is very important to us.”
The soldier coughed a few times and answered with a hoarse and weak voice,”
“Is this Captain Di Daozhang? I’m from the second team…”
“We encountered an ambush…Our brothers have all sacrificed themselves…”
“The other party is the team led by Qin Yuan…”
“How many people are there?”
Di Daozhang asked in astonishment.
The other party wanted to continue, but he kept coughing and his body trembled uncontrollably. A few seconds later, he died.
Di Daozhang closed his eyes and slowly put her down.
“Carry him nearby and bury him.”
Di Daozhang walked back slowly.
He closed his eyes and his thoughts spun rapidly in his mind.
Qin Yuan, Logistics Company.
These two words kept repeating in his mind.
The team that had fought with them just now was obviously not Qin Yuan. This was because the team just now was not considered strong, and this second team had been destroyed in a short period of time. The opponent just now clearly did not have such ability.
It seemed like his enemy was not just a small team.
Di Daozhang took a deep breath.
“Have you found any traces of the enemy nearby?”
Di Daozhang asked.
“Sir, no!”
The soldier beside him immediately replied.
Di Daozhang calmed down and was about to order them to return the way they came.
Suddenly, she heard rustling footsteps coming from all around her.
A voice sounded,”
“Aren’t you underestimating us?”
