Chapter 4: Striking the Grass and Startling the Snake
The enemy is approaching.
It all happened too suddenly.
Neither Vega nor Bakken had ever imagined that a wild boar would emerge from the woods, and that the boar would not die in their direction.
His whereabouts have been revealed.
Vega forced himself to keep his composure, he began to analyze the current situation, first of all, it must be impossible to escape, the distance between the two sides is less than 200 meters, once he escapes, he will definitely be shot into a hedgehog by a crossbow.
Is there any other way but to escape?
Although the United Kingdom's army is more than one percent weaker than the empire, the most powerful thing in the United Kingdom is their special reconnaissance force, and their intelligence network is unparalleled in the Jialan Continent.
That is, the reconnaissance unit is the trump card of the United Kingdom.
This squad of ten people, armed with crossbows and short knives, made a secret signal that Vega could not understand, and slowly approached in an impeccable formation, showing extremely excellent special operations capabilities.
No flaws could be found at all.
In this case, Vega can only pin his hopes on Captain Bakken: "Captain, what do we do now?"
"Vega Superior Soldier, the glory of the Empire is with you!"
Bakken saluted Vega, his eyes full of sorrow and bloodlust, the look of a desperate hungry wolf ready to fight to the death. Vega was all too familiar with the look, and he had shown the same look to a stray dog for a garbage can last winter.
Win or die.
Vega understood Bakken's order, and in the case of being embattled, without reinforcements, and the retreat route was blocked, there was no choice but to kill one without losing money, and dying with two sure choices.
"For the glory of the Empire. ”
A tear slipped from the corner of Vega's eye, and it was a tear that flowed out of intense unwillingness.
Overcoming the fear of crossing, surviving the hungry and cold winter, completing the recruit training with the determination to die, and seeing that he was about to get a smooth sailing life, he didn't expect to die here in the end.
Why is that?
Anger made Vega forget the fear of death, and the killing skills trained by the recruits came to mind clearly, and there was only one word left in his mind - kill.
Win or die.
He...... I don't want to die yet.
Bakken moved, and Vega moved.
Instead of retreating, Bakken descended the mountain like a fierce tiger and rushed towards the ten-man squad with a short blade in his hand.
Woooo
The United Kingdom's special operations array was a short knife soldier charging in front, crossbowmen covering in the back, and one arrow after another came first, instantly shooting Bakken into a hedgehog, and the first and last five short knife soldiers stabbed him in the heart.
Bakken collapsed before he could even do it for one person.
Now it seems that the huge gap in numbers and special operations methods is simply a joke to try to defeat two against ten.
However, Bakken's sacrifice was not without effect, the reloading of the crossbow was more troublesome, and it was impossible to carry out a second salvo in a short time, and the five shortsword soldiers who charged had not yet noticed Vega, who was covered by thatch.
For the first time, Vega was sincerely grateful for his height.
The target has come to attack range.
Without the threat of a crossbowman, Vega was like a nimble viper, and he suddenly burst out of the thatch, a short blade in his hand that had already cut through the carotid artery of the first shortswordr, and blood sprayed his face down the blood groove of the blade.
Despite being the first killing, Vega didn't have time to fear.
After killing one person, he is like a nimble monkey, diving back into the thatch, continuing to hide his body and preparing to attack the second prey, this flexible killing method is the magic weapon that he can defeat the adults in the boot camp.
Plop pounce.
One after another, the enemy killed one person and injured another, and the whole process took less than 2 minutes.
And every time a soldier from the United Kingdom died, Vega felt a hot current gather in his heart, which not only relieved him of the fatigue of high-intensity confrontation, but also made him more calm and energetic.
It's completely different from training.
In recruit training, a short period of high-intensity confrontation will quickly drain his physical strength and energy, and limited by the child's body, he usually loses his combat effectiveness after defeating one or two opponents, but this is not the case now.
Could it be that he was born a murderer?
There was no time to laugh at himself, Vega had already seen the crossbowmen in the back row reload their arrows.
He knew that it was impossible to kill people again now, and that a short knife soldier with the cover of a crossbowman and a short knife soldier without the cover of a crossbowman were two kinds of combat power.
Having strong coverage means they don't need to care about defending, they just need to focus on attacking.
Under the single-minded attack, it is impossible for Vega to kill anyone in the front row with a sneak attack, and the best case scenario is to exchange lives for lives, kill one person and be shot as a hedgehog.
Keep lurking and look for opportunities.
Vega calmly lurked in the lush thatch, revealing one eye to observe the other's every move.
You have a good plan, I have a wall ladder.
Vega's abacus clanged, but the enemy was clearly not stupid.
Led by a shortsword soldier who made a gesture that Vega couldn't understand, the shortsword soldier who had been wounded in his left hand took out a metal igniter, looking like he was about to set fire to the mountain.
"Not good. ”
Vega's heart was shocked, it was late autumn, the thatch was dry, the land was dry, if this igniter ignited the thatch, then in less than ten minutes he would be engulfed by the fire, and there would be no slag left.
Vega moved.
He didn't care about continuing to lurk, and directly exposed his body and killed the soldier with the ignition.
The British soldiers smiled sinisterly.
He put away the igniter as expected, and drew a short knife in his right hand.
Vega, who rushed in front of the soldier, saw this hideous and bloodthirsty smile.
"Fooled. ”
Vega's heart chuckled, and his face turned pale.
He didn't realize that this was 4,000 meters within the imperial border, and the people of the United Kingdom did not dare to set fire to it at all, and once the wolf smoke was set on fire, it would inevitably attract nearby Imperial soldiers, and they would not want to return to the United Kingdom safely.
This move is completely a ploy to surprise the snake.
Vega finally realized the gap between himself and the real elite troops, the real elite soldiers must not only have strong combat ability and killer skills, but also have superior intelligence, and the other party obviously took advantage of his mentality of jumping off the wall.
Looks like it's going to end here.
When Vega, who was exposed, realized that there was no chance of survival, he continued to castrate with the idea of exchanging his life for a life, dodging the short knife of the wounded soldier in his left hand and stabbing the blade in his hand into the opponent's heart.
Woooo
Although he succeeded in killing one person, five arrows were already whizzing, and it was a certain death.
