Fu Jingyuan frowned, and his only free right hand unconsciously touched the woman's pale face.

“Ajiu…”

He called out softly, then suddenly tightened his grip on the woman's neck and back.

He coldly ordered, "Get ready. We'll break out in twenty minutes!"

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines, and instinctively wanted to object.

But when his gaze swept over the woman in his arms, the words he was about to say suddenly stopped.

The group exchanged glances, then simultaneously lowered their heads: "Yes."

Su Jiu gave birth on October 12th, and today is November 14th. That is to say, the day before yesterday, when she left Tiandu, was the day she finished her postpartum confinement.

She experienced mild postpartum hemorrhage during childbirth, but Qin Sheng arrived in time and stopped the bleeding with acupuncture. She then received acupuncture for more than half a month and took medicine for a month before the lochia finally stopped.

It's also because she has a good constitution that she recovered so quickly.

But no matter how good the medicine she used or how good her constitution was, she couldn't withstand such back-and-forth torment right after giving birth.

First, they traveled thousands of miles to the west. At that time, their team had been forced close to the Devil City. They had been hiding and fleeing haphazardly for a long time, and they themselves no longer knew where they were.

She didn't know how she did it, but she found them in just one day, right when they were surrounded and struggling to move.

Through deception and enticement, he lured away half of the enemy's forces and even later killed more than ten of them, creating an opportunity for them to break through the encirclement single-handedly.

Fu Jingyuan seized the opportunity and used the weapon he had hidden in his wheelchair to kill several people. He then led the remaining men to break through the enemy's encirclement and followed the marks left by Su Jiu. Finally, they found Su Jiu unconscious in this hidden cave.

Another day of being stuck.

Hunger, drowsiness, exhaustion, and cold—they suffered a double blow, both psychologically and physically.

Even these grown men were finding it hard to bear, so it's easy to imagine that Su Jiu, a woman who had just finished her postpartum period, was enduring even more than they were.

Although most of the remaining members of their group are likely to be killed or even wiped out during this breakout, if they continue to wait, Su Jiu might not survive until tomorrow.

They, too, could not escape death.

Since that's the case, why not take advantage of the remaining strength and make a final push? Perhaps there's still a glimmer of hope.

Even if all else fails, we must find a way to get the eldest young master and his wife out first.

Thinking this way, everyone's tense nerves gradually relaxed, and they picked up the weapons at hand to prepare for a breakout.

Twenty minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

As soon as the beep sounded, everyone who had been resting with their eyes closed immediately opened them and stood up from their positions.

Fu Jingyuan glanced at them, his usual calm and peaceful demeanor gone, replaced by a cold and ruthless expression.

He commanded in a deep voice, "Action!"

The fourteen men immediately gripped their weapons and crouched low to the wall as they headed out.

There wasn't a single sound from beginning to end.

Fu Jingyuan lagged behind the others by two steps. Only after they had traveled a distance did he press the forward button on his wheelchair.

The wheelchair started rolling, making a soft "gurgling" sound.

And the speed is constantly increasing.

*

Halik and his group were the ones surrounding them, which gave them a natural advantage. So after deciding to wait another half day, they all rested peacefully.

After a long journey, although they carried much more supplies than Fu Jingheng, everyone was really exhausted after four days.

However, within a short time, many people gradually fell asleep.

Only a few guards remained standing firm on both sides, but their heads were gradually falling off.

Just then, several dark figures flashed past from the cave.

The guards were startled and looked up abruptly. When they saw who it was, they immediately opened their mouths to warn them.

But before they could utter a sound, they felt a chill on their necks.

In an instant, blood splattered!

Several figures fell silently to the ground.

They never dreamed that while they were still hesitating about whether to go in and get the people, the other side would dare to charge out first despite being outnumbered.

One mistake cost the lives of more than ten of his companions.

The Shadow Guards, having caught the enemy off guard, eliminated all twelve of them in a single encounter.

There are 74 people left.

Although I tried my best to keep quiet, I couldn't stop the splattering blood.

As the cool drops of blood poured down, the sleeping people awoke with a start, and in the next moment shouted, "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"

Everyone opened their eyes in an extremely short time and scrambled to their feet.

When they saw the scene before them, Halik and the others' eyes widened instantly.

Eyes bulging with rage!

These people have some nerve!

Without bothering to delve into the reasons or devise a strategy, Halik simply said one word: "Kill!"

"Kill them!"

"Kill these arrogant and domineering wealthy men from the East!"

"The West belongs to us!"

Amidst shouts of battle, the two sides clashed instantly.

After four days of intense fighting, both sides had long since exhausted their weapons and ammunition, and any further combat would now rely primarily on pure physical combat.

Most of the remaining members of Fu Jingyuan's side were shadow guards, who were very strong in combat.

Therefore, even when they are exhausted, they cannot be defeated by a group of temporarily assembled anti-China personnel.

They're just taking advantage of the difference in numbers.

Five surrounded one, then six surrounded another, and that's how they trapped the person inside.

Little did they know, this was exactly the result the shadow guards wanted.

Amidst the fierce battle, Fu Jingyuan appeared on the outskirts of the two sides, carrying Su Jiu in his arms, his brown eyes gleaming with a cold light.

A gun appeared in his free right hand without him even aiming; he raised his hand and fired a shot, then another, and yet another.

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

Amidst the almost seamless gunfire, Harik's men fell one after another, taking care of eight men in the blink of an eye, slightly relieving the pressure on the Shadow Guards.

But at the same time, it also attracted the other party's attention.

Halik was the first to notice Fu Jingyuan's appearance. His eyes flashed, and he immediately broke free from the encirclement, shouting, "Take down the one surnamed Fu first!"

To catch the thief, first catch the king.

Once we capture Fu Jingyuan, no matter how strong his men are, we'll have no choice but to let them do whatever they want!

Immediately, nearly ten people jumped out from the encirclement and pounced on Fu Jingyuan!

The shadow guards were startled and tried to stop them, but the enemy outnumbered them far too much. If they only wanted to entangle the enemy, they had no way to break free!

He could only watch helplessly as the enemy pounced on Fu Jingyuan.
