"Da Da Da!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Boom, boom!"

"Shoot!" With Xie Haotian's order, the muzzles of the guns in the hands of the two hundred soldiers spat out long tongues of fire, hitting the bodies of the surrounding fierce beasts, tearing open the fur of the fierce beasts, and splashing blood flowers.

The fierce beasts didn't know what they were afraid of, one by one the fierce beasts were not afraid of death and charged forward, the fierce beasts in front of them just fell, and the fierce beasts behind them stepped on the corpses of the fierce beasts in front of them and continued to move forward, one by one, and the black pressure covered the surrounding sand dunes.

In just seven or eight minutes, the front of the position was full of the corpses of the fierce beasts, and the fierce beasts in front of them did not die meaninglessly, but because of their fall, the originally soft sand became smooth and smooth.

One by one, the beasts jumped on the corpses on the ground and pounced on the soldiers on the .......

"Why can't you hold it soon?"

Xie Haotian didn't expect the attack of the fierce beast to be so ferocious, although he had been prepared in his heart, but after experiencing it himself, he found that he still underestimated the combat effectiveness of the beast herd.

"Slowly retreat, don't fight!"

Xie Haotian had just gone back dozens of meters, and the first line of position was occupied by the fierce beast, opening his bloody mouth to tear the corpse of the soldier on the ground, completely ignoring the bullets fired from the opposite side.

"Don't panic, the herd doesn't move fast in the desert......

Even if the first line of positions could be held, Xie Haotian didn't dare to stay longer, because the number of beasts was too much, and if he hesitated, he might be surrounded by the beasts in the middle.

Xie Haotian fought and retreated, and each position did not dare to stay for more than twenty minutes.

Of course, this is the ideal time for planning, in fact, a position of Xie Haotian's defense can't even hold for ten minutes, and it would be good to be able to hold on for ten minutes.

"It's over so soon, you're really a victorious general," Luo Jianda teased as he saw that Haotian had retreated to his defensive position.

Xie Haotian's three temporary positions, which were only 100 meters apart, collapsed in less than half an hour, which was a little discouraged, but after seeing the steady stream of beasts appearing on the surrounding sand dunes, any irritability seemed ridiculous.

At this time, Xie Haotian didn't have time to vomit with Luo Jianda, and carefully reminded: "The speed of the beast herd can't be fast in the sand, but don't take it lightly, there are many fierce beasts advancing from both sides of us, it seems that they want to surround us in the middle, don't fall in love!" ”

Luo Jianda put away his laughing expression, and said with a straight face: "You retreat with the wounded soldiers, I'll buy you an hour?" ”

Seeing that Luo Jianda didn't listen to his words at all, Xie Haotian knew that Luo Jianda would not accept the reality if he didn't suffer a loss, so he left the soldiers in his hands who could still fight to help him hold his position.

Seeing the constipated expression on Jian Haotian's face, Luo Jianda pointed to the surrounding sand and said: "I have been preparing for a little longer than you, and I have laid a lot of mines and fire oil under the surrounding sand, if the time of holding on is shorter than yours, I will follow you behind your ass in the future." ”

Hearing Luo Jianda's explanation, Xie Haotian also found that there was something different around him, especially on both sides of the road, digging a lot of criss-crossing ravines, and there was a pungent smell coming out of it, and he remembered that there seemed to be no such thing as fire oil in the army.

Seeing the puzzled and puzzled expression of Jian Haotian, Luo Jianda said even more proudly: "It was discovered by Zuo Gangchen on the Gobi, where there is an abandoned oil well, which can produce a lot of crude oil, and our task now is to delay time and let Zuo Gangchen produce more crude oil from the oil well." ”

Xie Haotian found that he didn't even know about this matter, crude oil is rarely used, but it is precisely the abundance of crude oil here, Xie Haotian was a little annoyed, why didn't he think of using the crude oil here before?

This is the reason why although Zuo Gangchen's military rank is lower than that of Xie Haotian and Pang Gongwei, Xie Haotian and several people are willing to let Zuo Gangchen lead this army.

When Xie Haotian took dozens of wounded soldiers through the defense line set up by Pang Gongwei and came to Zuo Gangchen's position behind, he found that this place had become a different scene.

"It's only been a night, and the hen here has become a phoenix, tsk, I knew this earlier, and I wouldn't be working hard in front!"

Zuo Gangchen commanded a group of soldiers to dig deep trenches in the Gobi, and the excavated sand and gravel were piled up to form deeper gullies, and viscous crude oil was poured into the gullies.

Xie Haotian followed Zuo Gangchen all the way, and found that there were staggered ravines everywhere along the way, which were also covered with crude oil.

"There are still eight hours before we can retreat, do you think we can hold out here for so long?"

Zuo Gangchen used the crude oil in the abandoned oil well to drag the beast herd here for eight hours, Xie Haotian thought that this was difficult, because the battle line that a thousand people could defend was too narrow, unless he never thought about the possibility of retreating, otherwise the back road would be easily cut off by the beast herd.

"Do you have any other plans?"

Zuo Gangchen nodded, then shook his head and said, "Let me ask you first, do you think we can return to Huaxia like this?" You've always thought in your hearts that those people didn't have any good intentions in leaving us behind for them, but have you ever thought about it, even if we keep coming, how far can we escape, and in the end we are not caught up by the beasts, compared to them, what is the difference between dying early and dying late? ”

Oh, yes!

Nearly 10,000 remnants of the army were defeated, and in the absence of weapons and ammunition and no means of transportation, perishing was only a sooner or later result.

After thinking about this, Xie Haotian will not be entangled in the question of who will break off, "It turns out that you have already thought about it, so we don't have a trace of vitality?" ”

"Now I want to understand what Lu Tianyu said when he rescued us from the underground fortifications, this is a war with no chance of winning, we don't know who we are fighting against, and we don't know how strong the other party is, so we rushed forward desperately, and our defeat was already doomed at that moment."

Xie Haotian was a little unclear, and he didn't know why Zuo Gangchen wanted to mention these things, but what Zuo Gangchen said was indeed the truth.

When Lu Tianyu rescued several of them from the underground fortifications, they didn't realize that the human race had completely lost in this battle, and still fantasized that the Federation could send troops to turn defeat into victory, and even Lu Tianyu's kindness to send them back to Jinling also refused.

If they had listened to Lu Tianyu and had not stayed, they would not have been in today's predicament.

Xie Haotian said a little gloomily: "I left a message to Lu Tianyu in the ability network system, hoping that he could see it in time, but there are wormholes on all continents, I believe Lu Tianyu must be very busy now, and I don't know when he will be able to see my message." ”

"That's fate!"

Now that Xie Haotian and the others are in the desert, they can only contact Lu Tianyu through the virtual real mirror, Xie Haotian regrets a little why he didn't contact Lu Tianyu earlier.

"I feel that Lu Tianyu has a lot of things to say to us?" Xie Haotian was a little dissatisfied.

Zuo Gangchen ignored Xie Haotian's complaints, "What should have been said has been said, but we didn't listen to it, sometimes calm down and think about it, and find that many of the words Lu Tianyu said before have deep meanings, we listen to it as a joke, who can we blame?" ”

"Lu Tianyu finally gave us a chance, and now I kind of want to understand that the flying machine is actually the best proof, but we ignored it. If you had one more chance, what would you choose? ”

Some things can only be understood after the fact, Xie Haotian couldn't refute Zuo Gangchen's words, and thought for a while: "If there is another chance, what will you choose?" ”

"Me?"

Zuo Gangchen has also thought about this question in his heart, and has thought about it many times, but he has never had an answer.

Perhaps, as the subconscious thinks, the Federation will not lose, and cannot lose. Once you don't have faith, can you expect others to be like you?

Everyone has their own concerns, and Xie Haotian is the same, the reason why he chose to stay like Zuo Gangchen and the others is that he also doesn't want to see this day.

But now, the confidence of several people has begun to waver, and Lu Tianyu's words have been confirmed again and again, maybe Lu Tianyu is right.

"Isn't your heart the same as I think?"

Xie Haotian had bitterness on his face, even now, he was still unwilling to give up, and he didn't know how long this obsession could last.

The two Earth Awakened on the Gobi struggled to gather the sand and stones together to form bunkers in the shape of beacon towers, and the Wood Awakened fixed these beacon towers without any reinforcement with branches and vines, and did not want to be very strong, as long as they could block the attack of the beast herd.

Thick black smoke had risen over the depths of the desert, and a dense burst of gunfire could still be heard, as if to signal that the battle was approaching and getting closer.

"Stop what you're doing and take an hour's rest ......."

Zuo Gangchen ignored Haotian's inquiring gaze and asked the soldiers around him to stop building their positions and prepare for the next battle.

Xie Haotian felt a little bored, compared with himself, Zuo Gangchen is more like a soldier, Pang Gongwei is very similar to Zuo Gangchen in this regard, and he and Luo Jianda are like outliers mixed in the army.

"Tell me your battle plan, I'm so mentally prepared?"

"It's easy to hold out here until the evening, and as for the battle plan, do you think it's necessary?"

Xie Haotian jumped up and said: "You don't even have a battle plan, then how can we retreat, do you want us to be chased by the beasts and retreat, and the whole army will be wiped out!" ”

"Then what good plans do you have, it's too late to say it now!"

"This ......", Xie Haotian was speechless, and he had nothing to say for a while, but when he thought that when he retreated, he was followed by a group of fierce beasts on his buttocks, and he felt that every pore of his body was in a cold sweat.

"Are you going to send more than a thousand of us to death?"

After Zuo Gangchen accepted the order of the broken queen, he already knew the result, he didn't mention it to anyone, he didn't want to, he couldn't, once more than a thousand soldiers knew about this plan, they collapsed before they encountered the beasts.

Zuo Gangchen thought it up to his own people, but if he didn't do it himself, others had to do it too, otherwise not a single person in the nearly 10,000-strong army would survive.

"So you knew it in your heart, that's why you didn't tell us, right?"

Zuo Gangchen nodded painfully, there was no need to hide it at this time, even if Xie Haotian was unwilling to accept such a result, it was impossible to escape alone.

Xie Haotian waved his fist and hit Zuo Gangchen in the face, Zuo Gangchen did not dodge or dodge, and he was punched by Xie Haotian, and a trace of blood flowed down the corner of his mouth.

Xie Haotian's second punch stayed in front of Zuo Gangchen's door, and he didn't know what to do!

"Why don't you hide!"

"If this relieves you, why should I hide!"

Xie Hao naively wanted to beat Zuo Gangchen hard, but Zuo Gangchen was right, someone had to do it, either his own people, or some other people, if he didn't want to be wiped out, then someone had to stay behind and ...... with the determination to die.

Venting the anger in his heart, Xie Haotian calmed down a little and said, "You won't really watch us die, right?" ”

"Of course not, after Pang Gongwei and them retreat in a while, you will leave with the wounded soldiers first, and those people should not embarrass you again!"

"Isn't there any other way?"

Zuo Gangchen looked up to the south and saw that Luo Jianda had already appeared with wounded soldiers, which indicated that Luo Jianda's defense line had also been lost.

"If you don't want us all to die here, then I can only hope that Lu Tianyu will see your message!"

"In seven or eight hours, we won't die!"

Xie Haotian greeted Luo Jianda in the direction of him, and saw that Luo Jianda was being carried by two soldiers, and a wound on his chest ran from his left shoulder to his waist, and if it was deeper, he could see the internal organs of his abdomen.

"Doesn't that make you be careful?"

Luo Jianda was lying on the stretcher, his face was bloodless, but his eyes were still bright, "I can't die, cough cough!" A little flesh wound is just ....... ”

Zuo Gangchen looked at Luo Jianda's injury, there was no expression on his face, as long as the person did not die, it was indeed no big deal.

Xie Haotian persisted for more than ten minutes, and Luo Jianda persisted for more than twenty minutes, and the situation was very unoptimistic.

More than twenty minutes later, Pang Gongwei and the soldiers also retreated, followed by Pang Gongwei and the black pressed beasts, just looking at it will make people's scalp numb.

"Prepare for battle!"

"Ignition!"

"All soldiers go into combat positions, shoot!"

The herd of beasts did not give people a chance to breathe, and the herd of beasts that followed Pang Gongwei launched an attack at the first time.

Zuo Gangchen asked the soldiers to ignite the crude oil in the trench in front, and the flames rose into the sky with thick smoke, forming a separation belt between the beasts and the soldiers.

But the flames can only stop the beasts for a while, especially after the beasts are already familiar with the flames, the fear of the flames is no longer fear, but to find the weak point of the flames to break through, use their claws to tear apart the humans hiding behind the flames, and turn these humans into a delicacy in the mouths of the fierce beasts!
