Zhao Lihan picked up Wang Xiaolan's backpack and said, "Wife, from now on, we have to march quickly. If you are not physically fit, please tell me."
Wang Xiaolan smiled and said, "Don't worry! I'm fine. Besides, I still have space and space abilities."
Zhao Lihan said, "I know you have special abilities. You can't just disappear in front of everyone! That's why I split them up."
Wang Xiaolan said, "Husband, you're so thoughtful. Don't worry, everything will be fine. I can bear this little hardship. By the way, I hope Huang Yong and the others are safe when they go there!"
Zhao Lihan said, "There will be danger, but they have carried out missions with me more than once or twice, and I know their capabilities. We will meet at the designated location before dawn."
As he spoke, Zhao Lihan looked at the surrounding environment and said, "Wife, let's go this way."
Wang Xiaolan heard this and without a word, she started walking into the mountain. Zhao Lihan was quick to grab her and signal her to stop.
Wang Xiaolan looked at Zhao Lihan, puzzled. He looked serious, his eyes revealing a hint of worry. Zhao Lihan leaned close to Wang Xiaolan's ear and whispered, "There's a minefield ahead. It's very dangerous. You must not run around. You must follow my steps closely. I will guide you through safely."
Wang Xiaolan's heart tightened, her relaxed mood instantly replaced by nervousness. Although she knew that she had a spaceship that could protect her in the event of danger, the thought of the deadly landmines hidden ahead made her heart beat faster.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, then nodded to show that she understood what Zhao Lihan meant. Zhao Lihan saw that she understood what he meant, so he carefully let go of her hand, turned around and walked forward.
Wang Xiaolan followed Zhao Lihan closely, not daring to relax for a moment. Her eyes were fixed on Zhao Lihan's every step, fearing that she would accidentally step on a landmine.
He finally walked out of the minefield and continued to climb to the top of the mountain. They had just climbed to Hill 104 and had no time to catch their breath when they suddenly heard a burst of artillery fire, followed by a rain of bullets flying over their heads. Wang Xiaolan was so scared that she hid in Zhao Lihan's arms.
Zhao Lihan looked at his wife, patted her back gently, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, they are still far away from us."
When Wang Xiaolan heard this, she stood up from his arms and said, "That's still far away. The bullets are flying over our heads."
Zhao Lihan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a relaxed smile, and said slowly: "This is on the front line. A distance like this is indeed quite far under normal circumstances. Wife, how about you hide in your space first? I will call you out after we reach our destination. What do you think?"
However, Wang Xiaolan shook her head firmly. Her eyes were as sharp as torches, revealing a sense of determination. She said, "Aren't you asking me to cheat? I didn't have the chance to personally participate in this battle in my previous life, but I can't leave any regrets in this life."
As they continued forward, suddenly, a fierce burst of gunfire rang out from the mountain ahead. The sound was like thunder and deafening. Then, there was a burst of rapid sprinting sounds, as if countless people were running desperately.
Not long after, a mass of dark figures rushed down the mountain like a surging tide, heading straight towards the mountain where Zhao Lihan and Wang Xiaolan were...
In this pitch-black mountain, where one cannot see one's hand in front of one's face, it is impossible to tell whether these people are friends or enemies. Countless thoughts flashed through Zhao Lihan's mind, but the first thing he thought of was to protect Wang Xiaolan's safety.
Without hesitation, he reached out and grabbed Wang Xiaolan, and quickly hid in the bushes nearby. The bushes were dense and deep, just enough to completely conceal the figures of both of them.
Zhao Lihan nervously held his breath, crouching quietly in the grass, not daring to move. As time passed, his heartbeat grew faster and faster, and a thin layer of sweat gradually seeped out of his forehead.
Finally, a group of people and horses galloped past them not far away. The sound of horse hooves was like thunder and deafening. Zhao Lihan held Wang Xiaolan's hand tightly and kept his ears alert, not missing any sound.
Then came the sound of rustling leaves, and the footsteps became clearer and clearer, coming from far away and getting closer. Zhao Lihan's nerves became increasingly tense. He held Wang Xiaolan's hand tightly, and he could feel her hand trembling slightly. He subconsciously tightened it, signaling her not to be afraid.
Suddenly, a burst of curses rang out, the sound particularly abrupt in the silent woods. Zhao Lihan's heart tightened. The curses made him alert, but at the same time, he was relieved. With his years of combat experience, he could tell that these people were not enemies, but his own people.
He couldn't help but feel puzzled, finding this matter rather strange. After all, our soldiers have always been known to charge forward without flinching. How could they retreat so easily? This was completely inconsistent with their usual style! Could it be that they had encountered a particularly dire situation, forcing them to make such a decision? Or was there something else going on?
At this moment, a burst of curses suddenly rang out: "Damn it, these ungrateful bastards don't look very smart. How could they have built such a solid fortification? This bunker is actually hidden in a cave, how cunning! Damn it, who came up with such a sinister and vicious plan? It really stumped our attack..."
Then, someone else chimed in, "Exactly. This kind of underground fortification wouldn't be repaired without three to five years. Could it be that they planned all this long ago?"
Someone else cursed, "Damn it! How have we helped them all these years? They're actually plotting this behind our backs..."
Zhao Lihan whispered, "These are our troops. They may have encountered difficulties that are difficult to overcome."
He held Wang Xiaolan's hand tightly and said, "No, I have to go find out what's going on. Wife, just stay here and don't come out. I'll be back soon."
Wang Xiaolan looked at Zhao Lihan and nodded, saying, "Go! I will take care of myself."
After Zhao Lihan left, an important piece of information suddenly flashed through Wang Xiaolan's mind. Her thoughts seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, and she recalled a report she had seen in the future.
The report described the situation in detail: Our troops encountered unprecedented difficulties and challenges when attacking Hill 405. The enemy had built strong fortifications on the hill and their firepower was extremely fierce, causing heavy casualties to the attacking troops.
Because the big mountain in front looks covered with green grass, but in fact the inside of the mountain is empty.
When Wang Xiaolan thought of this, she felt a strong sense of worry in her heart. It was not that our soldiers were not brave, but that they had no way to find a way in.
