Like arrows shot from a bow, Gu Changmu and Li Dali dashed forward with all their might. Their figures streaked across the empty plain, raising a cloud of dust in their wake. Behind them, Gu Haoran and his men pursued them relentlessly. Fierce gunfire echoed in the air, resonating like thunder.
The brothers following Gu Changmu and Li Dali were also running hard, but due to the flat terrain and lack of cover, they were all injured to varying degrees. They were like living targets exposed to the enemy's guns as they ran forward, and their situation was extremely dangerous.
"Everyone, hold on! We must hold on! We're almost there. Once we get there, we'll be able to find cover and hide to fight the enemy. If we rashly counterattack here, we'll only become an even more obvious target!"
Gu Changmu panted heavily while shouting to encourage everyone. His voice seemed a little weak amid the whistling wind and dense gunfire, but it was like a stream of clear water that injected into the exhausted hearts of the people and rekindled their fire of hope.
Hearing Gu Changmu's cry, everyone gritted their teeth, exerted their last bit of strength, and desperately sprinted towards the woods. Time passed by minute by minute, and every step was full of hardship and danger, but they never gave up.
Finally, after a difficult trek, they successfully reached the edge of the woods. The dense trees formed a natural barrier, tightly enclosing them. Now, they finally had shelter they could rely on, where they could catch their breath and begin planning their counterattack.
Gu Changmu and Li Dali quickly hid behind a tree trunk, raised their weapons, and aimed at the enemy gradually approaching from a distance. The situation suddenly reversed. They had been on the defensive, but now they occupied a favorable position. It was easy for them to attack the enemy. Every shot hit the target accurately, as if it was a fixed target.
However, the long and tense battle was ultimately unbearable. Although Gu Changmu remained highly alert and accurate with his marksmanship, Li Dali, who was standing beside him, accidentally exposed a flaw and was shot by the enemy, seriously wounding him.
Gu Haoran was overjoyed at this sight. He had always been a key figure in the opposing team, and his injury undoubtedly significantly weakened their strength. Seeing this, Gu Haoran immediately raised his arms and shouted, "Brothers, charge! Their leader has been shot. Let's wipe them out in one fell swoop!" Before he had even finished his words, his men surged into the woods like a tide, their shouts and cries deafening.
However, after that thrilling charge, the subordinates led by Gu Haoran had suffered heavy casualties, and more than half of them fell in a pool of blood.
But at this critical moment, the gun in Gu Changmu's hand suddenly jammed! At first, he mistakenly thought that the gun had malfunctioned, but after a careful inspection, he realized that it was because the bullets were exhausted.
At the critical moment, Li Dali, who was standing by, quickly threw the bag full of bullets from his waist to Gu Changmu. Gu Changmu quickly caught it as if he had found a treasure and began to reload the ammunition.
Then, he pulled the trigger again without hesitation, and dense gunfire rang out again.
In an instant, a large number of Gu Haoran's men were shot and fell. As time passed, both sides gradually ran out of bullets, and it eventually turned into a brutal close-quarters hand-to-hand combat.
Gu Changmu was agile and his moves were fierce. His unique fighting style was like a street fight between thugs, disorganized but highly lethal.
Relying on the experience and skills accumulated from years of wandering the world, he acted decisively and ruthlessly, knocking many enemies to the ground before they even had time to react.
At the same time, although Li Dali's arm was injured and bleeding profusely, he still gritted his teeth and continued to fight, without reducing his skills at all.
He and Gu Changmu cooperated tacitly, one taking the main attack and the other providing support, making it difficult for the enemy on the opposite side to resist and forcing them to retreat continuously.
Meanwhile, Gu Haoran, the pampered son of a wealthy family, was a completely frail scholar, unsuited to such intense combat. It wasn't long before he was captured by the numerous masters.
After a long and fierce battle in the middle of the night, Gu Changmu led Li Dali and others, and finally won the final victory in this life-and-death battle with their tenacious fighting spirit, fearless courage and exquisite tactical arrangements!
At the same time, Yue Yue and the leader had successfully boarded the train back to Beijing. As the train slowly started, the leader's tense nerves finally relaxed a little.
There were ten people traveling together, including Yue Yue. No one dared to slack off at all. They always stayed closely around the leader and focused on protecting his safety.
Time ticked by, and after a long day and night of trekking, the leader finally returned to the familiar land of Beijing after years. Upon hearing the news, his competitors felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, for they realized that with the leader's safe return, the situation had fundamentally shifted, and all their previous efforts were likely to be wasted.
When the leader walked out of the station, his friends who had been waiting for a long time came forward to express their warm welcome and sincere greetings to him; and his subordinates were even more excited, gathering around him and asking about his well-being.
Facing everyone's concern, the leader responded with a smile, but he had not forgotten the thrilling experiences he had encountered during the trip. So he quickly called his superior and reported in detail what had happened along the way.
