"Commander, you're awake." Bao Tong's happy voice came from the darkness.

"Where is this?"

"In Ayu's nursery bag."

Meng Qingxiao: ......

"I'm asking outside."

"Oh, I don't know."

Meng Qingxiao: ......

"Hehe, there's no way, even if you ask Section Chief Zhang now, she won't necessarily know, there are grasslands everywhere, you can't see the edge at a glance, and there are no landmarks for us to identify."

"But we didn't get lost." Bao Tong said with a smile, "We will go south as soon as we have the opportunity, anyway, our home is in the south, and we will be able to go one day sooner or later." ”

"Yes, no matter how far you go, sooner or later you can get there."

"Commander, you're not sleeping anymore?"

"I don't sleep, I want to go out and breathe."

"Okay, commander, you don't have to move, just let Ayou send you down." Bao Tong immediately patted the kangaroo's belly and shouted, "Ayou, put me and the military commander on the ground." ”

This kangaroo is getting more and more familiar with humans, and the strength of its hands is very well controlled, its two "small" paws put Meng Qingxiao and Bao Tong on the ground one by one, and then it sits on the grass with big eyes blinking at the two.

This was the eighth day they had wiped out the beast legion from the Atlas.

Since yesterday afternoon, a large number of drones, armored vehicles and armored beasts have suddenly appeared on the grassland, and they have been searching for something day and night, making Meng Qingxiao and them no longer as easy as before.

Meng Qingxiao's position has always been at the back of their entire team, and the purpose of doing so has also been mentioned earlier, in addition to him being the object of protection, he also needs Beximo's eyes.

However, just the morning before yesterday, Beximo's eyes were powerless for the first time, he spotted the enemy in advance, but their enemies also discovered them, it was a dozen drones flying at high speed, their mission was to reconnoiter the ground, and Meng Qingxiao and they were easily discovered.

Not only the team led by Meng Qingxiao, but also several teams under him were discovered by these drones, no matter how fast they ran on the ground, they did not have an advantage over the drones in the sky.

Meng Qingxiao's brows furrowed, they didn't have a good way to deal with the threat from the sky now.

They have missiles, but they need launch pads, and they used to use large trucks to transport them, but now the big trucks have long been discarded, because they are too big to fit into the dimensional space of kangaroos.

Many of their mutated beasts are spacious enough to put down the launch pad, but they don't have the enemy's beast cloak, and they can't hold it on the beast's back at all.

Now that the enemy has discovered it, there is nothing to scruple about, just rush forward.

Meng Qingxiao immediately ordered, went south with all his strength, and sprinted and ran.

Their battalion was the slowest runner and now had to exert a little more effort.

After running for two hours, everyone's mounts were a little out of breath, and just about to take a temporary break, Besimo said quietly: "Why don't you keep running, there are a large number of planes chasing in front, and they look very much like fighter planes, the kind piloted by human pilots." ”

Audrey asked, "How long will it take to catch up?" ”

Besimo silently calculated, "If we sit still here, we will catch up in about 20 minutes." ”

"It's too late to run now," Meng Qingxiao shouted, "everyone quickly disperse, and the more scattered you stand, the better, so that one of the enemy's shells can only deal with us alone, and then run with all your strength when they are about to approach us." ”

Someone muttered, "Why don't you just run and wait here for them?" ”

Someone next to him immediately scolded: "Idiot, I want to leave you 15 minutes to catch your breath, then you can run faster, you continue to run now, and then you are tired and become a dog, how can you have the strength to sprint?" ”

This is a strong Han soldier scolding another Etru civilian, they are super protective of their chief, especially Meng Qingxiao, and they can't tolerate outsiders saying that Meng Qingxiao is not.

That's what Meng Qingxiao meant, since no matter how they run, they can't outrun each other, and their own mounts will feel tired, but the enemy's plane will not be tired, so it's better to wait for work and take a breath first.

Most of their mounts had been running all the way from Europa, and after a long workout, they only needed a short fifteen-minute break to regain a lot of strength.

Soon, although everyone had not seen the plane, they could already hear a deafening roar, which was so shocking that it was hard to imagine how many planes were flying at the same time in the sky.

After another three minutes, even Meng Qingxiao could see the plane, although he couldn't see far, but for things moving at high speed within his line of sight, he could see more clearly than Beximo, because Beximo's dynamic vision capture ability was not as good as his.

Approaching a hundred fighters, covering the sky and the sun, Meng Qingxiao was speechless, there were only more than 400 of them in total, if they only dealt with them, it would be too big and useless, right? It's also too much to take fighter jets seriously.

Meng Qingxiao saw the pilot on a certain plane at a glance, and to his surprise, it was an Asian face, which made him suddenly wake up to the fact that those so-called otherworldly legions, they are actually the same as his second sister, and they are probably also from the Qianghan country, but they are the strong Han country in their world.

Meng Qingxiao smiled bitterly in his heart, such a simple truth, he didn't fully react until now, it seems that there are some things that he has not been willing to accept in his heart.

He did not throw away the body of the red-haired Meng Yuxin or bury it in Europa, but froze in the kangaroo space, even if she was dead, Meng Qingxiao still hoped that she could go home with him.

Meng Qingxiao saw the faces of the enemy, and their hideous expressions, they seemed to be cursing, obviously thinking that they were standing too far apart, causing their bombs to be greatly reduced, and they were hesitating whether to continue to drop bombs.

Dozens of fighters flew over their heads, ignoring them, but when there were only 15 left, these 15 fighters did not leave, and they dropped a large number of bombs like a hanging mother laying eggs.

"Run, spread out in three directions." Meng Qingxiao shouted and reminded, and at the same time urged his snow bear to run wildly.

Soon, the explosion came from behind them, and although the snow bear dodged the bomb, its fur was scorched, and it roared in anger, and couldn't help but speed up again.

Meng Qingxiao stood high enough, but he was not affected too much, and he didn't care whether it was useful or not, holding a submachine gun and desperately shooting at the plane in the sky.

Bao Tong is the fastest, his kangaroo jumps twenty or thirty meters, and he is much more agile for fighters with difficult steering.

Seeing his comrades-in-arms being bullied, Bao Tong felt very unhappy, he lay on the door of the nursery bag, put his arms on the outside, stared at the plane in the sky and cursed for a while, and then suddenly had an idea, and shouted: "Ayou, stone them to death." ”

"Oh-" The kangaroo screamed, and after really understanding, he stretched out his paws and pulled out a large stone heavier than Bao Tong from his nursery bag, aimed it at one of the fighters, and smashed it at it.

"Oops, I didn't hit it, Ayou, come again."

The kangaroo roared again, took out a big rock and smashed it, this time it finally hit, there was a plane that couldn't dodge, the tail was hit, suddenly lost its balance, and fell into the distance, and it didn't take long for an explosion to be heard, the plane crashed, and 30 seconds before the plane crashed, there was a pilot from being bounced into the sky.

"Haha, good Ayou, let's continue." Bao Tong was as happy as a child and kept clapping his hands.

At this moment, the roar of machine guns came, and the crash of a plane made the dozen planes in the sky angry, and their bombs could not catch up with Bao Tong, so they all opened fire on Bao Tong.

"Oh-" the kangaroo let out a scream, blood splattered from its body, and it was injured.

"Damn, armor-piercing bullets, Ayou, run away." Bao Tong shouted anxiously.

"Damn, what a luxury, using armor-piercing shells on an airborne multi-barreled machine gun."

Bao Tong cursed as he ran away, and at the same time instructed the kangaroo to avoid some evasive actions from time to time, and they cooperated quite tacitly with one person and one beast.

The kangaroo's dodge was so effective that the planes could no longer attack it, and they took their anger out on the others.

Compared to the agility of kangaroos, the grizzly bears or brown bears of the other warriors were very clumsy, and because of their large size, it was difficult to dodge, and it didn't take long for casualties to occur.

Meng Qingxiao and Audrey's snow bear was the most conspicuous, and they also received special care, and they were both injured soon, but fortunately both of them were fine.

Seeing that Meng Qingxiao was attacked, Bao Tong suddenly became angry, and once again commanded the kangaroo to attack, and after smashing down the second plane, the enemy actually retreated.

There was no need for Meng Qingxiao's orders, someone would count the casualty data, Meng Qingxiao got off the snow bear and rescued the wounded with other soldiers, while constantly thinking about it.

Passive beating is not his style, Bao Tong's fighting style just now made his eyes shine, there is only grass on the ground nearby, and there are no stones to be found, otherwise he will let his snow bear throw a few stones to try.

It's not just humans who know how to use tools, but many animals use them too, including bears, especially polar bears.

When a hungry polar bear encounters a fat walrus, it will slam the walrus on the head with stones or ice if it cannot kill the opponent with its own physical strength or if the distance between the two sides is a little too far away.

The snow bear is a branch variant of the polar bear, and it's certainly no problem.

Meng Qingxiao raised his head to look for Bao Tong's figure, swept around but didn't find the big kangaroo, and couldn't help but ask the soldiers around him: "Where is Bao Tong?" ”

One of the fighters said: "I just accidentally glanced at it, Chief of Staff Bao seems to have gone over there, he may have gone to arrest those two pilots." ”

"Oh."

Without waiting for Bao Tong to come back, the statistics officer came back first and reported the number of casualties to Meng Qingxiao.

"Commander, 38 people were sacrificed, of whom 3 were soldiers of our strong Han kingdom and 35 were Etrus; 76 people were wounded, 55 of them were soldiers of our strong Han country, and they were all wounded to cover their Etru comrades. ”

Meng Qingxiao nodded and didn't say anything, and Audrey next to him also opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she couldn't help but say nothing.

"And the casualties of our mounts," the warrior continued, "our mounts suffered heavy losses, 79 bears died, the rest of the mounts were more or less wounded, and a dozen more were seriously injured and could no longer walk. ”

The warrior continued to smile bitterly: "The enemy's shells didn't hurt any of us, but their armor-piercing shells were so powerful that our mounts were too big to dodge. ”

"It's hard work, you go down and rest." Meng Qingxiao asked him to leave.

"In our current situation, maybe it's a good thing that we don't have a mount." Audrey suddenly said, "Although you can walk a lot slower, you are not easy to be detected by the enemy. ”

"The enemy won't care about us for the time being." Meng Qingxiao sighed, "I'm worried about the brothers who walked ahead of us, those thousands of fighters have not returned yet." ”
