Chapter 457 Huge Pressure

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After a big battle, smoke was still rising from the position until dawn.  There was charred land and scattered corpses everywhere, including those of members of the secret society and soldiers of the Mawo army, as well as a considerable number of unidentified body parts.

    There is a depressing and sad mood permeating the battlefield.

    Lin Rui leaned against the earthen barrier of the trench and lit a cigarette. He suddenly felt that his hands were shaking.  He had never seen so many bodies, ever.  In the distance, the black soldiers of Mawo were praying with their ancient and traditional rituals. Their voices gradually trembled as he read out the names of the fallen, and finally broke down in tears.

    Lin Rui turned his head to the side.  Jason snatched Lin Rui's cigarette from the corner of his mouth, took a puff himself, and then handed it back to him.

    Lin Rui took the cigarette silently and looked at him, "How is the situation?"

    "The loss is over a hundred." Jason said sadly, "More than half of the troops deployed in this defense zone."

    "That is to say, our total strength plus the reserve team is less than 500 people." Lin Rui was silent for a while and said, "We have only blocked them for three days."

    "But such a result is already very good. The members of the secret society are all real experts, and what we have is just a group of rabble. If we hadn't fought hard to maintain it, this group of people might have dispersed long ago." Jason said lowly  He said, "And no matter what, the loss of the secret society is obviously higher than ours. They only have 500 people at most."

    "This is because we are on defense, and it is the maximum passive defense. Otherwise we would have been finished." Lin Rui spit out the cigarette butt in the corner of his mouth and turned on the communicator, "Jiang An, I need to know the situation in other defense areas.  .¡±

    "There are no problems in other defense areas. It's just that you suffered a lot of losses there, so I had to replenish the reserve team." Jiang An said in a deep voice, "But I estimate that after this battle, it is unlikely that the secret society will use a force attack again.  . They are likely to take some unconventional offensive."

    "What do you mean by unconventional offensive?" Lin Rui frowned.

    "If I had known, I wouldn't have said this was unconventional. According to the satellite information provided remotely by Cobain, the Secret Society's troops suddenly withdrew five kilometers away across the board after the war. At present, we don't know that they did this.  Reason." Jiang An replied.

    "Is the news accurate? When did it happen?" Lin Rui was slightly startled.

    "Just after the battle, they suddenly retreated under the cover of night. We don't know the specific reason. The news was provided to us by Cobain through the satellite network, and it should be true." Shogan replied.

    "But I don't understand why they suddenly retreated? Although they suffered a lot of losses yesterday, they still have at least nearly 500 troops, and they are well-equipped and well-trained. Why did this happen suddenly?" Lin Rui was a little confused.  Frowning.

    "I also want to know." Jiang An said slowly.

    Lin Rui¡¯s expression changed and he whispered, ¡°Can you contact Black Panther Gu Lei? I need to know the battle situation in the Southeast Province.¡±

    "You and I want to go together, and I'm contacting him." Jiang An replied, "When will you come over?"

    "Right away." Lin Rui stood up, patted Jason beside him and said, "I'll leave this to you."

    "You can trust me." Jason shrugged.

    Lin Rui nodded, turned around and walked back.  Along the way, besides corpses, there were wounded Mawo soldiers.

    Lin Rui passed by a maimed Ma Wo soldier and stopped.  He had seen this man before. This was the Mawo soldier who stopped him at the headquarters last time.  But now he was covered in blood and bandaged randomly.  He was still moving around excitedly, "They are coming, they are already here." Apparently his mind was a little unclear.

    Lin Rui lowered his head and looked at him and said, "How are you? The enemy has withdrawn! Where are the medical soldiers? Why not send him to the hospital?"

    The Mawo soldier raised his hand full of red blood and grabbed Lin Rui and said, "I am I going to die?"

    "No, you will be fine, I promise, medic! Where is the medic?!" Lin Rui turned around and shouted to the medic, but was grabbed by the collar by the soldier.

    "I remember you, you are the commander, give it to my wife" The soldier slowly took out a letter stained with blood.

    Lin Rui took the hopeful letter from the Mawo soldiers with a serious expression.

    The soldier raised the corners of his mouth slightly and put on a smile: "Thank you, sir" Then he closed his eyes.

    Lin Rui looked at this young soldier who had been on the front line from the beginning of the battle, looking at this young Mawo soldier like an ordinary person looking at a hero.

      Lin Rui slowly put him down, took off the military badge from his neck and put it together with the envelope. As he walked, he conveyed the order to the communications soldier next to him: "Give this letter to Lieutenant Colonel Woods and ask him to handle it.  Immediately contact all available troops and make every effort to repair the defense gaps in this line!" After saying this, he strode back.

    Back at the headquarters, Lin Rui and Jiang An met.  Jiang An frowned and looked at Lin Rui and said, "You look like you came back from hell."

    Lin Rui looked at the blood, sweat and dust on his body, shook his head and said, "That place has long been turned into hell. It would be good to come back. Have you contacted Gu Lei? What did he say?"

    "The situation there is much stronger than ours. Delia's armed forces could not withstand the joint attack of Gulei and Mawo warlords. They were advancing with great success, and within three days, they successively captured several important towns in the eastern province.  . Those local warlords who were just like grass on the wall saw that the situation was not good and began to defect. Delia is now under their attack and is running to the southwest." Jiang An said slowly.

    "That means they are probably coming to Nalan'er soon." Lin Rui said with a slight surprise.

    "Yes." Jiang An smiled bitterly, "Now, do you feel a little bit about the secret society's sudden retreat?"

    "Maybe they are meeting up with Delia's people." Lin Rui took a deep breath and said, "This is not good news for us."

    "Yes, once they join forces and attack Nalan'er together. Delia has five thousand people, our defensive pressure will double. The ancient city of Nalan'er will be really shaken." Jiang Anxuan  Slowly.

    "Where is Gu Lei's current location?" Lin Rui frowned.

    Shogan unfolded the map and said, "They are at this location. Although Gulei was already chasing with all his strength, Delia left blocking troops along the way. This caused Gulei's pursuit to be severely hindered. If he is currently at this location  , at least there are still two days until Nalaner."

    Lin Rui's face changed suddenly, "This means that we have to block the enemy forces ten times our size from Nalan'er for two whole days. Until Gulei's people arrive."

    Jiang An nodded.  "Yes."
