Chapter 597 Living Like Them
"No... Misaki!"
Wen Ni's expression turned to shock.
Seeing this, her companions behind her grabbed Wen Ni with tears in their eyes and forcibly dragged her backward!
Beautiful Vortex, beautiful Vortex!
Wen Ni's throat was sore.
Seeing Meixuan's frail body sway as she stood up at the entrance of the narrow alley, Meixuan smiled at her, two lines of tears streaming down her cheeks. She turned around and, without hesitation, threw two grenades at the charging Burmese soldiers!
With a loud "boom!"
The bomb knocked down a row of soldiers.
In return, they were met with a barrage of gunfire!
Countless bullets struck Miu's body, causing it to tremble uncontrollably before she knelt on the ground, motionless.
The Burmese soldiers roared fiercely as they charged toward Mei Xuan's corpse.
"Misaki! Misaki!!!"
Tears and snot streamed down Wen Ni's face, blurring her vision beyond recognition. She felt herself drifting further and further away from Mei Xuan...
Just as the group of soldiers rushed to Miu's side
The woman, whom they thought was already dead, suddenly raised her head and used all her strength to pull away the grenade she was tightly holding in her arms!
Everyone stared wide-eyed in fear.
There was another loud "boom".
Meixuan's body shattered completely and dissipated in the wind, taking countless Burmese soldiers with her.
The burning flames blocked the entrance to the alley, buying Wen Ni and her group time to escape and hide!
Wen Ni witnessed this scene firsthand.
She fiercely wiped away the tears on her face, resolutely turned her head, suppressed the bloodshot tears welling up in her eyes, hugged the child in her arms tightly, and led the rest of the people to escape!
Please tell my husband and children that his wife, their mother, sacrificed herself in a heroic battle against the enemy. My death was worthwhile, and I will never regret it. The only people I have wronged are them. I hope they can forgive me for not being able to spend the rest of my days with them…
Yes, I will.
There was no time for Wen Ni to experience heart-wrenching sorrow!
Their lives, the lives of those who survived, were bought with the blood of countless soldiers. They had to live, and they could only live!
They fled and killed numbly.
Until another dark night fell.
Everything around returned to its usual calm. If it weren't for being in the ruins, standing on corpses and blood, such a day would seem no different from any other day.
In a corner of the ruined building, Wen Ni leaned against the wall, holding a gun in her arms, staring blankly at the swirling fog in the sky for a long while.
She didn't think about anything, she just stood there stunned!
If a person is in pain to a certain degree, the brain may indeed trigger a protective mechanism, causing the body to fall into a dazed state, barely supporting itself and preventing it from collapsing.
Reaching into her bosom, she pulled out a somewhat tattered red silk cloth.
This is a corner of the Chinese flag that she found in a pile of rubble during the retreat.
I placed it on the windowsill, holding a leaky pen, wanting to write something on it, but as soon as I put pen to paper, the black ink stained the originally intact crimson!
She frowned and threw down the pen.
He simply bit his index finger and used his own blood to write name after name on that equally bright red flag...
Li Yongmin, Cen Mengen, Song Yanfeng, Mei Xuan...
There are so many more, every name that sacrificed their lives in our memories, including that little soldier who handed her a family photo in the trench.
She remembers everything clearly.
The name was written all over the corner!
She carefully folded it up and placed it back against her chest. It was as if, in this way, she could take them with her and fight alongside them!
The days I spent in the special forces, occasionally going on missions, flashed before my eyes. Things that used to seem difficult and painful were nothing compared to this moment!
This is the real battlefield.
She lowered her eyelashes and gently placed her palm on her heart.
"girl……"
A trembling call made Wen Ni raise her head.
Before me was a Burmese woman in her fifties.
The woman clenched her hands tightly, followed by several other Burmese people. Their expressions were sad, their eyes darting away, avoiding direct eye contact with Winnie.
"What's wrong?"
“Girl, why don’t you take those two soldiers with you and leave us alone? Don’t worry about us. Taking us with you will only be a burden… You’re so kind, we can’t let you die… From now on, let us walk this path on our own, whether we live or die…”
"Don't say such nonsense." Wen Ni stood up, propping herself up with her gun. A dirty bandage was tightly wrapped around her left arm to temporarily stop the bleeding. "You've seen what happened on the way we fled. Leaving you here would only mean certain death."
"But……"
“Your lives were bought with the lives of my comrades. Even if I die, I will get you out of here safely.” Wen Ni lowered her head again, her hair obscuring her eyes. Her tone was cold and indifferent as she brushed past them. “Go back to sleep. It’s safe here for now. We need to travel south before dawn.”
"Yes, yes..."
They sensed Wen Ni's low spirits and dared not say anything more, only repeatedly responding with "yes, yes, yes."
Even if Wen Ni resents them, they won't say anything.
The Chinese people have done more than enough for them!
The night was deep, and the sky was beginning to lighten.
Several groups of men cautiously approached the southern checkpoint from different directions.
"Brigade Commander Liang."
"Are all three teams here?"
"Wen Ni's team hasn't arrived yet."
How could that be?
Liang He frowned.
Qin Yuan, who was standing next to him, also looked up suddenly, a hint of unease on her face!
Their journey here was also dangerous, with casualties, but most survived and reached the rendezvous point. But why hasn't Wen Ni arrived yet? That can't be right, unless something even more difficult has happened…
"Brigadier Liang, time is of the essence, we cannot wait any longer."
"Yes, if we wait any longer, the Burmese will probably find us!"
The officers beside him urged him on.
Qin Yuan bit her lip, "But, Wen Ni and the others..."
"The rest of you go first, I'll stay and wait for Wen Ni!" Liang He made the decision, his brows sharp and unyielding. "When we break out later, one team will lead the escaping civilians this way, the second team will hold off the gunfire in front, and the third team will provide cover from the rear!"
"good!"
No one said much, just waited for action.
This is their only and last chance!
Once Liang He gave the order, they broke through the encirclement according to their original plan.
But as soon as it appeared
A huge light, bright enough to illuminate the entire sky, suddenly shone down on us!
They stood there dumbfounded.
Behind the headlights, a dark mass of soldiers could be seen!
In the center of that armored human wall stood several people: the brigade commanders of the two brigades in southern Myanmar, and the military governor sent by Li Shiyan: Ban Gou.
How...how could this be?
Liang He suddenly realized that they had been exposed.
It turns out that the enemy's main force had been lying in wait to the south, waiting for them to walk right into their trap!
