To deal with a surprise attack by 100 people, Tang You's side already had heavy firepower.
The trade-off for heavy firepower is that each garrison has to carry seven guns, which is quite a burden.
When the vanguard arrived, they ran into several A City garrison soldiers covered in blood.
They were being chased by Chen Hu's men, blocking their path while leading them on a run across the mountains and fields.
They just won't go to the supply depot in City B.
Upon seeing Tang You approach, the leading garrison commander from City A was carrying a baby in a swaddle.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother, let's go save him! Our Captain Liu is in Chen Hu's hands."
After saying that, he fell backward, but Tang You caught him.
Hua Mi originally wanted to go to the vanguard team, but Tang You received Gong Yi's order and refused to let Hua Mi go.
Gong Yi personally ordered that Hua Mi be placed in the logistics and rescue team.
A pregnant woman wanting to draw her gun? That's impossible. Even if Gong Yi chopped off his own head, he wouldn't let Hua Mi bring his two daughters into the vanguard team.
So by the time Hua Mi saw the garrison in City A, those garrison soldiers were almost dead.
Tang You led the vanguard to deal with the group of raiders. Hua Mi also learned from the logistics team that the raiders were Chen Hu's men.
Chen Hu originally planned to send garrison troops to seize the supply depot in City B, but the garrison troops in City A were mobilized by Gong Yi, and only a few dozen men under Liu Shengyuan's command were left to flee.
Therefore, these dozens of garrison troops were also dispatched by Chen Hu, in the name of the garrison commander of City A, to rob the supply depot of City B.
At this point, Chen Hu was only skeptical about the loyalty of the garrison under Liu Shengyuan's control.
He was using the mission of "seizing the supply depot in City B" to test Liu Shengyuan and his group. If the mission was successful, then Liu Shengyuan and the dozens of garrison troops could continue to be used.
Conversely, it wouldn't be unreasonable to let Liu Shengyuan and the others die at Gong Yi's hands.
Liu Shengyuan originally thought that would be the end of it; Chen Hu had his plans, and so did he.
Liu Shengyuan planned to send dozens of garrison troops to the outside of the B City supply depot. After surrendering, he had no intention of seizing the B City supply depot.
However, just before his departure, a secret order suddenly came from the "Commander of the Garrison in City A," instructing Liu Shengyuan to take charge of other matters with the garrison under his command.
There were only a few garrison troops and a hundred of Chen Hu's henchmen, who were carrying out the robbery mission again.
From that moment on, Liu Shengyuan knew that his plans needed to be changed.
In order to protect the B City supply depot, Liu Shengyuan decided to turn the tables on them. He sent the few garrison soldiers he had been assigned to carry out the mission of "seizing the B City supply depot" to defect midway, in order to remind Tang You of the B City supply depot.
Someone is coming to rob us, quickly defend yourself.
Liu Shengyuan, along with several dozen other garrison troops, launched an attack on Chen Hu.
After listening to the logistics team's words, Hua Mi lowered her head and rubbed her temples.
"This Liu Shengyuan is really stupid. Chen Hu clearly already suspects him, yet he still led dozens of garrison soldiers to their deaths. Why would he do that?"
A garrison officer from City A, pulling a bloodied infant from a cloth sling in his arms, said weakly...
"Because Captain Liu wanted to rescue our commander with minimal sacrifice, while simultaneously weakening Chen Hu's power for Commander Gong."
This is what garrisoning is all about. Actually, there's no need to go into detail about this plan; any garrison would make the same choice.
With the sacrifice of dozens of garrison soldiers, including Liu Shengyuan, it became much easier for Gong Yi to deal with Chen Hu.
Hua Mi looked at the few members of the garrison rescue team in front of her, then at the baby in the arms of the garrison in City A across the street.
The A City garrison, responsible for betraying Tang You and reminding him, only had one bulletproof vest in total. They didn't know where they got it from, so they used it to wrap the baby's body.
Hua Mi reached out and took the baby. Looking down, she saw that the baby was alright. The blood on his tiny body was from the garrison in City A.
"Hang in there, brother!"
The B-city garrison in charge of medical care was carrying a medical kit and applying hemostatic gel to the A-city garrison member who had already been shot.
However, the garrison commander in City A was clearly at his limit; his life force was rapidly fading away.
The medical garrison gave the bloodied man another painkiller.
But there was no other way; his injuries were far too severe. The only reason he had managed to hold on until now was to get the baby in his arms to a safe place.
Once he was certain the baby was safe, he used all his remaining strength.
Hua Mi looked at the A City garrison soldier who was being urgently resuscitated but could not be saved. She sighed and hugged the baby boy who was crying loudly in her arms.
She didn't know whose child this was, or why the garrison was risking their lives to bring this baby boy to the B City supply depot. She asked the medics beside her who were treating him.
"how's it going?"
The medical garrison at the B City supply depot shook its head.
"He did his best, and so did we."
There was no way to save him. No matter how miraculous Hua Mi's medical supplies were, for someone whose life force was almost gone, even the most miraculous medicine would be useless.
Hua Mi's heart suddenly felt heavy. She suddenly remembered the trillions of [energy orbs] in her level 17 storage.
She already knew that this [energy orb] could be used by ordinary people.
Once ordinary people use the energy orb, they will not need to eat, drink, or sleep, and will still be full of energy.
So, if we apply this to the dying garrison of City A, would it work the same way?
As Hua Mi spoke, she held a ball of energy light in her hand, and threw it directly at the bloodied A City garrison while holding the baby boy.
"Oh~!"
The A City garrison, who had been venting their frustrations, shouted.
The surrounding medical personnel immediately swarmed around him, some frantically attaching a stethoscope to his ear.
"Quick, he seems to have some strength left, quick."
It was only a slight increase in vitality, still very weak.
Hua Mi thought for a moment, then stood behind the medical garrison and threw several more [energy orbs] at the A City garrison.
"Oh, oh, ah, ah, ooh ooh ooh, oh ooh ooh, ah ah ah~~"
On the ground, the garrison of City A, with its bloodied and mangled face, opened its bright and alert eyes.
He suddenly struggled to his feet from the ground.
"I'm going to rescue Captain Liu. I can still do it."
The surrounding medical garrison was shocked. What a medical miracle! A person who was about to die was able to suddenly get up, grab a weapon, and go to fight.
Everyone realized what was happening and rushed forward to press down on the hands and feet of the injured person.
"You can't move right now. Calm down. The bullets haven't been removed from your body yet."
"Let me go, let me go! I'm full of strength now, I'm going to save our Captain Liu!"
Their Captain Liu has probably already made his move. With dozens of garrison troops, the chances of a successful raid on Chen Hu's villa complex are slim.
It's the last day of the month, please vote for me! Please vote for me!
