He really couldn’t afford to lose.
Qin Yuan was silent.
He sorted out his emotions, looked at the time, and stood up.
He shouted at the surrounding soldiers,
“Time’s up! Let’s go! There must be no rest along the way! We must return to the logistics company as soon as possible!”
Qin Yuan ordered loudly.
“Yes, sir!”
The soldiers below answered in unison.
Although there weren’t many people, only about thirty of them, they were exceptionally loud.
They had already rested well and were full of energy. Their voices were also a lot louder.
Then, the entire army officially set off in the direction He Chenguang had given them.
Under Qin Yuan’s command, the speed was very fast. It did not take long for them to walk more than a kilometer.
It was already noon, and the sun was high in the sky. The atmosphere was hot, and the surrounding environment was unbearably hot.
“Damn it! It’s really hard on us in such a hot temperature!”
“There’s still more than half of the way back. It won’t be easy like this!”
“I wonder if we have enough water! You have to drink it sparingly!”
The soldiers all looked distressed.
Qin Yuan, who was at the side, also saw all of this.
He did not consider this factor. At noon, the hot weather would have a significant impact on the entire army’s operations.
It might even directly affect their progress.
However, there was no good solution. Their water source was very precious and limited. Under such circumstances, they could only save resources and distribute them on the way.
This was because there were mountains, rivers, and stone walls nearby, and there were few rivers and water sources. This was something that could not be helped.
Fortunately, the journey was not too far. It was about three kilometers. Even if they were not in their best condition, they would only need more than ten minutes to reach it.
And that was indeed the case. They did not encounter any enemies along the way. The obstacles they encountered were all natural external factors.
The hot weather and the lack of water resources made them spend about twice as much time as before.
When they arrived at the logistics company’s new camp, it was already about 20 minutes later.
He Chenguang saw Qin Yuan and the green snake from afar and shouted happily,
“Qin Yuan! Green Snake!”
When Qin Yuan and the green snake saw this, they smiled and waved back at him.
“Yes, we’re back.”
Qin Yuan said with a smile.
“We weren’t in a hurry!”
Vivian also rushed out.
“I almost thought I would never see you again!”
she said excitedly.
Then, the old man followed him out.
“You guys really didn’t make us worry.”
the old man said calmly.
“Trouble?”
Qin Yuan was a little puzzled.
“Didn’t we agree to wait for us to come back?”
“What happened?”
Qin Yuan began to realize that something had happened.
” Daybreak attacked us again when you were out.”
He Chenguang said.
Qin Yuan frowned.
“What is it? What was going on? Didn’t we already chase them away?”
Green Snake said in surprise.
” I don’t know the details, but their attack this time wasn’t as fierce. It was just a probing attack.”
He Chenguang said with some doubt.
“That’s strange. We’ve clearly repelled them. Why are there still survivors?”
“Not to mention that their camp is far away from us, the most unbelievable thing is that they actually know our location!”
Speaking up to this point, He Chenguang’s face immediately revealed a surprised expression.
“The other party must have a reason. They wouldn’t do such a thing for no reason.”
Qin Yuan lowered his head and pondered.
“However, we have no way to discuss it here.”
“Let’s go back and reorganize the troops first and discuss our next move.”
“Yes.”
After that, the few of them returned to the camp.
“How about it? How do we decide our next move this time?”
After returning to the camp, He Chenguang could not wait to tell Qin Yuan about this.
“Do you think they have their eyes on us now?”
Qin Yuan asked.
” That’s for sure. No matter where we run to, we won’t be able to escape. I don’t think so.”
He Chenguang confessed.
“There’s nothing we can do about it. We can’t escape their pursuit now.”
Qin Yuan lowered his head and said indifferently.
” Because we have a lot of wounded soldiers now, and the weather is hot, which is not good for long journeys.”
Qin Yuan told the truth.
“In my opinion, we can only fight head-on with the other party now. Both sides are at the end of their rope. It depends on whose knife is sharper.”
He Chenguang also lowered his head and thought hard.
“You’re right. We have no way out now.”
” But I’m not ready to tell them about it yet.”
Qin Yuan said frankly.
” The old man is old, and Wei Wei is young and inexperienced. The soldiers of the logistics company are not a problem. In the face of danger, they will also burst out with their last strength.”
“Then just say it.”
He Chenguang answered directly.
“They will stand on your side no matter what. We will definitely support you.”
“I know.”
Qin Yuan said helplessly.
“I know your intentions.”
“But support is support, but I promised them that I would protect their safety.”
“I don’t want to drag them into this battle.”
Qin Yuan voiced his worries.
“Since they have already fallen into the center of this storm, how can they be spared?”
