Chapter 27: The Enemy's Assassination and Li Xiaoguo's Death

Although the number of mounts has been greatly reduced, their total number has magically maintained a full army when they first entered Etru, but how much combat strength there is, it can only be hehe.

Now they have at least three people on each mount, which doesn't matter, because each of them has seven or eight people on their mounts, even if they are the smallest.

From now on, these civilians of Etru have officially joined the Alien Suppression Army, and Meng Qingxiao is not prepared to give them any more preferential treatment, not to mention that they are full of fear of the kangaroo space, even if they want to re-enter, it is impossible.

Meng Qingxiao specially held an all-staff mobilization meeting.

"I don't want to say anything alarmist, but that's the way it is, our bullets can hardly do damage to the enemy, and our enemy is already fully armed with armor-piercing shells."

"The most powerful bomb we have now is a grenade, and our enemy, at every turn, is to throw us a few bombs weighing several tons."

"The only advantage we have over them is that we have extremely fast mounts, but that advantage is gradually disappearing as our enemies are also domesticating high-speed mounts at a rapid pace."

"The only advantage we have over them is that our driving skills have been honed and they can't catch us without some special means."

"That's where we are, I want to ask you, are you scared?"

"Don't be afraid!" Only some people shouted, and many more bowed their heads and fell silent.

Meng Qingxiao could see clearly, and those who were not afraid of shouting were all those strong Han soldiers who had been following him, and almost no one shouted out from Etru.

Meng Qingxiao was not surprised, it was strange that they were not afraid, so he continued: "It's normal to be afraid, I'm also scared, I'm afraid that I won't be able to go back to see my parents, wife and children alive, my child has just been born, and I haven't even seen him yet." ”

"You can be afraid, but you can't be afraid, fear can arouse your desire to live, but fear can make you lose your fighting spirit."

"The stronger the desire to survive, the easier it is to stimulate their potential, and the less likely they are to die."

"Once you are afraid, then you are not far from death, you will lose the most basic judgment, you will be scared to the point that your hands and legs will be weak, and at that time, even if there is a chance to escape, you will miss it in vain."

"But there's one thing I have to emphasize!" Meng Qingxiao suddenly became stern, "Who the hell wants to ignore the safety of his comrades-in-arms for his own escape, or even frame his comrades-in-arms, I catch one, I shoot one, and I will never listen to any explanation, I don't care who he is, I can't save him when the king of heaven comes." ”

"Do you understand?"

"Understood."

"Be louder, I'll see who hasn't heard yet."

"Understood!"

"Good." Meng Qingxiao smiled, "Your voice has successfully alarmed the enemy, so let's start our journey." ”

They didn't know where they were now, but since they had already passed Ulan City, they were less than 1,000 kilometers from their homeland, and with the speed of their mounts, plus the time to rest, it would only take three or four hours to get there.

Of course, this is ideal, and now their enemies have laid a wide net, and a large number of beasts armed to the teeth are patrolling everywhere, and they will open fire as soon as they encounter them, and there is no nonsense at all.

Casualties are unavoidable, Meng Qingxiao's current strategy is to put the strongest defensive beast in the front and rush forward, and at the same time, with the help of the little bees of the technical group, always pay attention to the movement in the distance, if it is a small group of enemies, they will rely on the numerical advantage to crush all the way over, if it is a large group of enemies, they will try to detour.

Their speed is still superior, and although the enemy has formed a large number of beast legions, they have no time to train at all, and they are inferior to them in terms of running.

It was in this situation that the traps, traps and mines that they had been imagining for a long time were finally used by the enemy.

This time, the enemy deliberately wanted them to run into the trap, and deliberately put a pocket to surround them from all sides, but there was only a gap in the direction of the south, which was a super large decoy.

Meng Qingxiao was vigilant in his heart, but there were enemies all around, and they were already ready to shoot, so they could only rush forward.

"There are likely to be traps ahead, everyone must be vigilant!" Meng Qingxiao was caught in the middle of everyone, and he shouted loudly.

It should be noted here that they are still using walkie-talkies, and in the case of thousands of horses galloping, it is impossible for the people around them to hear by shouting, Zhang Ying and they are also painstakingly trying to avoid the enemy's surveillance.

Meng Qingxiao's reminder was commendable, and although they still inevitably stepped on the trap, they minimized their losses.

There were hundreds of mines planted by the enemy in front of them, and these mines were not very powerful, but they were just enough to blow up the legs of the mounts, and the enemy also planted them in a hurry, so there were not many of them.

When the cavalry army is running at high speed, once the mount in front of them stumbles, the cavalry on them is almost certain to die, even if they do not fall to their death, they will be trampled to death or kicked to death by the mounts that cannot be dodged behind.

However, there are also some lucky ones who are not dead, they will be quickly rescued by the fighters behind, and then continue to run forward.

At this time, the ladder to the sky that Zhao Xuchen had taught was used by everyone, and those mounts that could no longer run would be trampled under the feet of the mounts in the rear, and they would jump high to remind the cavalry in the rear, and then everyone would separate to the left and right and continue to move around some distance.

And so it was another day, and they barely made it to more than 100 kilometers of the road, and at the same time lost hundreds of people.

This is war, those who can't adapt will be gradually eliminated, and those who have adapted need to learn to die on the other side, no one knows if the next person to die is themselves, you must be ready to sacrifice at any time.

After dodging the minefield, they were given a short rest, and the enemy did not chase them, although Meng Qingxiao felt strange in his heart, he still ordered everyone to hurry up and rest.

Dinner has already been prepared, and it is the cooks who breathe oxygen to make it for everyone in the kangaroo space, and the magic is that the kangaroo space can actually make a fire, which makes everyone realize that the reason why they have difficulty breathing in this space may not be that the oxygen is too low, but that there are too many other gases.

There are still a lot of them, so it is still very troublesome to eat, and in order to avoid this trouble, they basically eat barbecue, and the large pieces of animal legs are grilled on the fire, and the parts that they don't want to eat or are inconvenient to roast are thrown to the mounts to eat raw.

The roasted legs are frantically thrown out by the kangaroo's two little paws, and then the warriors come and pick them up in an orderly manner.

Drinking water is also solved from the kangaroo space, all the warriors have marching kettles, and when they are resting, they will tie all the marching kettles into a string and throw them into its dimensional space by the kangaroos, and the cooks inside will help them fill up the water.

The water in it is not polluted, and the purity is very high, so you don't have to worry about diarrhea when you drink it.

There is a tradition among the soldiers of the Qiang Han Kingdom, every officer has a small notebook, which records the names of all the soldiers of his unit, and if any soldier dies, he will draw a stroke on the notebook and tick off the name of that soldier.

At this moment, Meng Qingxiao looked at his list of fighters, his heart was very heavy, the first name under his name was Min Keyong, and now it had been ticked off by him with a red pen, he still had some resentment towards Min Houde, but at this moment he felt that he had no face to face the old man.

Just when Meng Qingxiao was looking at his notebook and was stunned, a soldier walked towards him, holding a marching kettle in his hand, as if he wanted to ask the army commander if he wanted to drink water.

Audrey, who had been sitting next to him, suddenly burst out at this moment, grabbed his right arm, slammed it back, broke and dislocated him, and then smashed the kettle smashed by the other party with a palm knife, and at the same time hit his knee hard, hitting his lower body, easily restraining him.

Meng Qingxiao woke up, sat up quickly, and just wanted to question Audrey what was going on, when he saw a weapon fall out of the warrior who was restrained by Audrey.

A pistol that is not from their world, Meng Qingxiao has been fighting with enemies in the other world for so many days, and he is still very familiar with this gun.

Meng Qingxiao bent down to pick it up and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Audrey said, "You ask him yourself." ”

The warrior bowed his head and said, "I picked up this gun." ”

Meng Qingxiao suddenly understood, he sneered and said, "I didn't ask you about the gun, why are you in such a hurry to explain?" ”

The soldier lay on the ground and shouted: "Commander, I just wanted to come and ask you if you drink water, I don't know why she attacked me." ”

His shout immediately alarmed many people, and several division-level cadres who were resting on the side also came to check on the situation.

Bao Tong's big voice had already shouted out in advance: "What's the matter, commander, is someone sneaking up on you, will there be an enemy who will blend into our team?" ”

Meng Qingxiao suddenly frowned, and said in his heart, you idiot, do you want to prepare a big horn for you, are you afraid that others won't know, right?

Meng Qingxiao hadn't said anything yet, and Yu Rucheng, who also came over, had already begun to be displeased: "Shut up, you, no one will treat you as a dumb person if you don't speak." ”

Bao Tong finally came to his senses, knowing that he was reckless, he slapped himself and said, "I'm sorry commander, I'm making a mistake again." ”

Before he finished speaking, Li Xiaoguo's exclamation sounded again: "Be careful! ”

Just when Bao Tong was stunned, Li Xiaoguo had already knocked him down, and at the same time, the gunshots rang out.

Someone attacked Bao Tong, but was blocked by Li Xiaoguo at an emergency moment, and Yu Rucheng on the side hurriedly rescued and killed the soldier who sneaked attack.

"Xiaoguo!" Bao Tong shouted and hurriedly picked up Li Xiaoguo.

A large amount of blood gushed out of Li Xiaoguo's mouth, but he still insisted on saying a word: "I finally gave your life back." ”

He died laughing.

"Medical cabin, Ayou, take out the medical cabin!" Bao Tong shouted.

Wan Qiyan touched the artery in Li Xiaoguo's neck, shook her head lightly and said, "It's useless, he's dead." ”

A bullet hit Li Xiaoguo's heart, if he wasn't an evolutionary, he wouldn't be able to die without even saying a word.

Even an evolutionary cannot have the strength to speak after his heart is shot through, he must have a strong obsession to hold on to it until he utters that sentence before he dies.

Bao Tong thought of the first time they participated in the military training of the joint team, when he forgave Li Xiaoguo for being betrayed, Li Xiaoguo said: "Bao Tong, I owe you a life." ”

"You don't owe me anything, brother! How can you be so stupid, my good brother! Bao Tong wept bitterly and was hoarse.

When you are so strong that the enemy cannot defeat you from the outside, then he will definitely find a way to crush you from the inside.

Meng Qingxiao's hands and feet were cold, and he suddenly realized this, but the price he paid was so great.

"How did you find out he was going to attack me?" Meng Qingxiao still chose to ask Audrey.

Audrey replied lightly: "His kettle is used by Min Ke, and you have been staring at Min Ke's name in a daze tonight, so I am impressed." ”

She could recognize it as Mink's kettle, because each kettle had the names of the warriors on the bottom of the kettle, and the names were written on their own, so the font was varied.

Min Keyong only wrote one word "use", which is the most unsimilar word, but it is also the most special word, which is impressive.

However, if you don't know the inside story, you will turn a blind eye, which is why the enemy shows his flaws.

Min Keyong had already been sacrificed, his body had been left behind, and Meng Qingxiao didn't even have the ability to go back to look for it, which was the most painful point for him.

But now, his enemies are attacking him with the relics Min Ke used.

"Go and take him down for interrogation, and get all the information out of his mouth." Meng Qingxiao ordered physically and mentally exhausted, "Also, immediately investigate our team thoroughly and find out all the lurkers." ”

At this moment, Fei Junding and Yue Zuze were both protecting Meng Qingxiao's side, and several of his guards also ran over, surrounding him three layers inside and three layers outside.
