Chapter 586 Tragic
"Ah-so that's what you wanted to ask about."
Wen Ni gave a self-deprecating laugh.
She turned around, her hands, covered in scars and grime, gently pressing against the ruined window sill.
“I love someone. He’s from China, from a military family. His parents and grandfather destroyed a transnational criminal organization, and Li Shiyan was the only surviving child from that organization.” Wen Ni recounted her story calmly, her fingers tightening slightly. “He wants revenge on us, to make us taste the bitterness of losing our loved ones, just like he did! He kidnapped me to torture the person I love… What so-called fiancée? Ridiculous, just a means for his revenge!”
"So that's how it is..." Hearing the truth with his own ears, Liang He couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He pondered for a moment and then asked, "This time, are you really not planning to leave with the Chief of Staff? If you really want to know, you're not part of our army group, much less our brigade. There's no need for you to stay and put yourself in danger..."
“I’m not from your army group, nor from your brigade, but I am a soldier of China.” Wen Ni’s words pierced Liang He’s heart. “We came all the way from Mandegan, we went through life and death and desperate situations together. I, Wen Ni, am not the kind of person who would abandon my brothers to live alone!”
"brother……"
Liang He never imagined that the woman beside him would be so strong, resilient, loyal, and devoted!
He never imagined that the frail woman covered in blood when they first met in the prisoner-of-war camp would be standing here, side by side with him!
Liang He let out a long breath, his tone relaxed and relieved. "Tell me, what's the name of the person you like? I'll have the chief of staff and the others find a way to contact him after they leave."
"he……"
Wen Ni only said one word, paused several times, and finally shook her head with a faint smile.
"There's no need for that. What good would it do to tell him? If we fail to break through or wait for reinforcements, and I die here, letting him know would only cause him more grief. It's better for him to know nothing at all, to simply disappear from his life as if I had never existed. That would be better..."
Of course!
"If I really survive, I will definitely go back to him in person! Because we still have a promise we haven't had time to fulfill..."
After speaking, a barely perceptible tenderness flashed across Wen Ni's face. She turned to Liang He, "Brigadier, what about you? Are there any family members you care about?"
"Me? Me... well, I do have a girl I like." Liang He was taken aback at first, then blushed slightly with embarrassment. This demeanor was quite different from the fierce and valiant man he was when commanding troops in battle. "This war came so suddenly, I didn't even have time to confess to her before I left. I thought that if I made it back alive this time, I would definitely tell her in person that I like her!"
"Hopefully, we can all get back alive."
Although the hope is slim.
However, it is precisely because they have expectations that they are desperate to survive!
"Brigade Commander Liang! Everything is ready, we can set off!"
"Okay, let's go!"
They turned around together, their steps firm.
No one knew whether the road ahead would lead to life or death, but they still went forward without hesitation!
The grenades strung together exploded in sequence!
The bursts of light from the explosions were like bright firecrackers, so eye-catching and so flamboyant!
"There they are! Chinese soldiers!"
"Go! Capture them!"
The Burmese soldiers charged toward the firelight, which was exactly what Wen Ni wanted.
She led a column of soldiers, weaving out from behind, firing bursts of bullets to quickly eliminate a wave of enemies. Then she turned and vaulted over the ruined wall, landing on one knee and boldly appearing in front of another patrol!
"They're Chinese soldiers! Open fire!"
"What bad luck that you guys found me."
Wen Ni supported herself with one hand on the ground, slightly raising her head, her wisps of hair fluttering in the wind. She curled her lips into a smile, simultaneously straightening up and raising her hands in a gesture of surrender. Yet, her expression showed no trace of panic or disbelief at being discovered…
"Is it a woman?"
"Capture her alive!"
The Burmese soldiers were about to step forward.
Wen Ni suddenly clenched her fist, her eyes cold and aloof. "You think you can capture me alive? That's unlikely. Because I'm sending you down to meet the King of Hell!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he pressed the button in his palm.
The ground beneath the Burmese soldiers' feet suddenly exploded, bursting into flames and blasting them to pieces, limbs flying everywhere! They didn't even have time to utter a scream.
Looking at Wen Ni again, he resolutely turned around.
Let the blood flow like a river behind you, the smell of burning filling the air...
Her mission
The goal is to draw enemy fire and buy time!
At this time, all the Burmese soldiers at the western gate had been killed. Their reinforcements had not yet arrived.
"Leave here and head west! The Burmese barbarians won't catch up so quickly! Don't look back, just keep heading towards Yancheng! The commander and the others are there!"
"brigadier!!"
"Don't look back! Run!!"
Upon receiving the message, the Burmese reinforcements rushed over. Liang He grabbed his gun and led his soldiers to meet them head-on!
The chief of staff, having shed all his tears, gritted his teeth and led Bai Chong and the others straight into the mountains, never looking back; their only goal was ahead!
This battle lasted from dawn to dusk. Of the more than 100-strong breakout team of the Fifth Brigade of China, only 20 or 30 remained!
Row after row of their bodies fell, riddled with wounds, yet clinging to their last breath, they used their bodies to block the Burmese barbarians' artillery fire, preventing them from getting any closer!
"Brigade Commander, we've held out for so long, the Chief of Staff and the others should be safe by now! We can retreat!" Company Commander Zhang Ming, covered in blood, rushed behind the bunker, grabbed Liang He's sleeve, and exclaimed in surprise, "Brigade Commander! Your...where's your left arm?"
"Don't worry about me, you guys get out of here!!"
Liang He still had one hand resting on the machine gun.
The other hand was empty inside the sleeve, tied with a rope to stop the bleeding, but the blood was still dripping uncontrollably, sinking into the soil!
"No! Commander, we must go together!"
"I told you to leave me alone, hurry up and go!!"
They are pulling
A large searchlight shone from ahead.
"Want to leave? Not so easy!"
They were enemy troops, and they had reinforced their ranks with new men.
Some of them were even pushing a scooter...
"That's not a single-board cart!"
"It's a mortar!"
Wen Ni had just killed a Burmese soldier when he turned around and saw the guy. He yelled, "Watch out!!! Find cover!"
"boom!"
A shell flew in.
A cloud of dust and sand was raised.
"Damn it... their supplies have arrived..." Ignoring the dizziness from the explosion, Wen Ni scrambled to her feet and ran towards the trenches. "Retreat, retreat quickly!"
But as she pulled up one person after another, they were all covered in blood and had no breath!
"No...no..."
"Is anyone still alive? Is anyone still alive?!"
She frantically searched through the pile of corpses.
"Miss Wen... Miss Wen Ni..."
The extremely faint sound was masked by the buzzing in Wen Ni's ears; she couldn't hear it at all. But out of the corner of her eye, she saw that trembling finger, which made her stop in her tracks.
Qin Yuan...
It's Qin Yuan!
He's still alive!
