A few minutes later, several individual armoured guns that had caught up behind lowered their muzzles and fired indiscriminately into the river.

There was a hysterical roar from the cockpit, and a strong reluctance could be heard.

Bang bang bang...... Another random shot. As if he wanted to vent his unwillingness and anger through the muzzle. The surface of the river exploded with waves.

In the distance, several infantry vehicles and armored vehicles stopped one after another, and a dozen or so people jumped out of the cars and quickly ran to the cliff to look down.

The surface of the river is five or six hundred meters wide, the water is turbid, and you can see whirlpools one by one.

"He won't live." Someone said with red eyes.

"There are only a few of us left, how can we explain to the above?" It's not so much how to explain it, but what to do next.

The person who spoke was full of worry, loneliness and despair, his face was pale, and his dejected expression could not be concealed in any way. His legs were weak, and he sat on his knees with dull eyes.

The other people's expressions were not good-looking.

The base was bombed, and only these people survived. But it doesn't last long.

Death is death, and life is punished for dereliction of duty. The empire's laws and regulations are harsh, and the military regulations are strict, and being shot is the only end.

The atmosphere was calm, and after a long time, a lieutenant with thin cheeks said: "I only ask you, do you want to die or live?" ”

They glanced at everyone, but they all bowed their heads and said nothing, and no one said anything. He added: "It's very simple to want to die, wait." ”

Wait for the people sent from above to investigate, and wait for the gun.

"Want to live? What are your good ideas? An ensign looked up at him and asked in a harsh voice.

The lieutenant's eyes flashed with cruelty, and he gritted his teeth and said, "If everyone doesn't want to die, then we have to find a way to fight for ourselves." ”

Everyone looked up at each other in astonishment, and the lieutenant beckoned, gathered everyone together, and formed a small circle, with a dozen heads together. Listen to the lieutenant whisper his thoughts.

As soon as the lieutenant finished speaking, someone immediately objected loudly and said excitedly: "No, we are dignified imperial soldiers, how can we be pirates." No, absolutely not. ”

Someone laughed at him, "Being a pirate may be able to fight for a way to survive for yourself, so what do you say if you don't become a pirate?" Surrender to the Union forces? ”

Before this person's voice fell, someone next to him said in a voice that said: "Whoever dares to say the word surrender again, I will collapse him immediately." ”

Three or four of them had slightly changed their complexions, exchanged glances with each other quickly, and then bowed their heads and remained silent.

A young soldier who looked to be in his early twenties, with a pale face, asked weakly, "Lieutenant, how can we leave even if we are pirates?" On the other side of the Don was the Union Army, and two hundred kilometers behind us were stationed three Imperial divisions. On the left is an Imperial Division and three regiments of army aviation. On the right is the vast sea of a thousand shales, and overhead are the space fleets of the Empire and the Alliance facing each other. We are surrounded by a nowhere to go? ”

A stout man with rough black skin and a fierce personality slammed his fist on the ground, his skin was broken and bleeding, and his eyes snorted coldly: "The left and right are dead, it is better to push directly across the river and die in the hands of the alliance army, which can be regarded as sacrificing his life for the empire." ”

"Well, the courage is commendable." A sturdy man with short hair next to him sneered: "There are no sappers to build bridges, individual armor and vehicles can't pass, you want to use your strong body to fight against the artillery fire of the Alliance Army?" ”

"Lao Tzu doesn't want to kill the enemy, can't he die in order to send him away?" The stout man roared loudly as he stared at a pair of red bull's eyes.

"Okay, of course, I won't stop you, and no one will stop you, please!"

There was a faint roar in the air, and two Imperial "X" shaped fighters flew quickly through the clouds.

The lieutenant's face changed, and he said, "There is no time, everyone must make a decision immediately." Go, or stay? Do you want to live or wait to die? ”

The hand crept behind his waist. Individually armoured drivers have no other defensive weapons, but they always carry a handgun with them.

Not to kill the enemy, but to kill himself.

The lieutenant's eyes flickered, waiting for everyone to make a decision.

Most of them struggled with their eyes and finally nodded helplessly. The lieutenant secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the three or four people who didn't nod, "What about you?" ”

The people looked at each other a few times, and a man in his thirties with a blue stubble on his chin said: "We are not pirates, and we will not join the enemy, we want to quit the army and fend for ourselves." ”

The lieutenant's eyes narrowed slightly, the hand holding the gun behind his back tightened, and said with a smile: "Want to be a deserter? ”

The stubble man sneered and laughed at himself: "There is no point in talking about this now, everyone is here to survive." Be pirates. A few of us blended into the local community as small people. Everyone goes their own way and does not interfere with each other. ”

"It's decided?"

The stubble man turned his head to look at the other three companions, his eyes flickered quickly a few times, and then he looked back at the lieutenant with a calm expression, "Yes, it's decided." ”

The lieutenant smiled slightly, and said, "It's okay, then I won't force you to ......" His eyes suddenly turned sharp, and he was about to make a move. I heard a cold cry ringing in my ears, "Don't move!" ”

The lieutenant's pupils shrank suddenly, and four black holes appeared in front of him. The lieutenant's expression froze instantly, his movements froze there, and his eyes were fierce, "What do you mean?" ”

"Don't pretend to be confused, what do you want to do, I understand, everyone understands people, and no one is stupid than anyone else."

The stubble man and his three companions pointed their guns at everyone, slowly stood up and stepped back.

The stubble man sneered at the lieutenant, whose face was gradually turning blue: "I pulled out my gun and loaded it, and the whole process only took 0.3 seconds." No one in the base can shoot faster than me. My companion has often won the first few shooting competitions at the base. Lieutenant, in front of us, you don't have a chance. Put your mind right, don't play tricks. If you want to play tricks, you don't have to be my opponent. If you don't want to get an extra hole in your head, just stay still...... The same goes for you. Don't move. Whoever moves me will abolish whom. A few of you, colleagues, don't force me to kill you. ”

Not long ago, they were comrades-in-arms who fought side by side, and in the blink of an eye, they drew their guns and faced each other.

The stubble man instructed one of his companions, "Go and push those individual armor into the river......

"Stop, you can't ......" The stout man with a black face was in a hurry, and was just about to stand up to stop it, when a gunshot rang out, and a smoking hole was punched in front of his foot, which smelled of burnt paste. Under the threat of gunpoint, the black-faced man could only stare at each other with hatred.

Plop, plop, plop...... Plopped, and a huge splash of water splattered.

One of the four multi-legged individual armorers was activated, and after pushing the three from the top of the cliff into the river in turn, the remaining one was turned into automatic control. The person came out of the cockpit, and after two or three seconds, it also automatically jumped into the river to "commit suicide".

Individual armor is equipped with a satellite positioning system. To disappear, they must be destroyed.

The stubble man and the other four people did a great job, and after disposing of the individual armor, they blew up all those armored vehicles.

Only one infantry motor vehicle was left for the lieutenant's men, but the high-powered machine gun mounted on the roof of the vehicle was removed.

They also drove away in the remaining infantry motor.

The lieutenant and the others had ugly faces, but there was no way, the situation was stronger than people, and they fell behind.

At the same time, I have to thank the stubble man for not killing them, and even left them a car.

It's better to have a car than not to have one. Hide for the time being, so that the people who come up to investigate think that everyone in the base has been killed, and they will find another chance to leave the planet.

……

All gone. Calm had returned to the cliff, with only gusts of morning breeze passing by. With a hint of coolness.

Silence around, a minute, two minutes......

Suddenly, a hand appeared on the edge of the cliff. Chubby and meaty. There are dark brown blood spots on the fingertips and between the fingers.

A weak voice seemed to come from outside the void, "...... These bastards, if they don't hurry up, they have to play a drama of infighting. Really, I don't know if it's hard to hang a person below? It's so immoral, there are really no good people in the Imperial Army. ”

Another fat hand, which was also dirty, climbed up, and two chubby hands strained and an elbow came up. Harder, revealing a round head, with a snap, another elbow seemed to be heavy on the rock of the cliff face.

The fat man gritted his teeth, his face was swollen red, and he used all his strength to climb up his upper body, and he was still hanging outside from the waist down, and he was lying there panting heavily, no, he really had no strength.

He was just hanging against the cliff wall below, with nothing to step on under his feet, and all the weight of his body was hanging on his hands. I can't support it for a long time. It's all about breath and will.

Mentally paralyzed, falling into self-hypnosis, constantly reminding himself to persevere, just hold on for a while, just like that, he has persevered until now.

The body seemed to be folded at a ninety degree right angle, and the upper body lay there motionless, and the legs hung in the air, and it took more than twenty minutes for him to climb up with difficulty. Turning over, he stretched his arms and legs and lay on his back facing the sky, looking at the sky with his eyes, as if he was in a different world.

His mind went blank right now, and he didn't think about anything. I just want to lie down like this, lie down on him in the dark, the earth is desolate.

This soldier is really not in vain, it's so exciting, it's just exciting!

If the military career is still so exciting in the future, he doesn't know how long he can last. Maybe one day he will be killed as a deserter.

The strength of his body was gradually recovering, and he began to reflect on whether it was right to join the army.

He felt that he was not the material for being a soldier at all. I don't like to be restrained, but the barracks rules are very harsh and ruthless.

He also understands that a country's military must be disciplined. Military discipline and national law are greater than the sky.

But he thinks that it can be in the short term, such as a year and a half. But if it takes a long time, he doesn't have the confidence to survive.

But this war is destined to be a long-term war. It's not surprising that it's been ten or eight years.

For a moment, he thought of running away. Anyway, now everyone thinks he's dead.
