Chapter 218 The Other Side of Victory



"Report! Ready!"

Ying Mingcheng and Captain Huang looked at each other and gave the order to attack.

It was a dark and windy night, with the wind blowing from the southeast. The soldiers who were secretly marching were facing the wind, and their footsteps and smell were obscured by the sound of the wind, and not a single word was transmitted to the guards upwind.

They were like ghosts in the dark night, appearing silently behind the enemy sentries, quieting the guards with a little help and twisting, and occupying the high ground.

There were two high points near the heavily guarded valley. Ying Mingcheng and Captain Huang chose the southeast high point. However, when they crossed the sentry post and reached the high point, the wind direction suddenly changed to southwest.

"Could it be that he can really tell the future?" Captain Huang glanced at Ying Mingcheng who was measuring the wind speed and muttered to himself.

Ying Mingcheng really didn't have this ability. He only knew the most basic skills of observing the sky. At first, he could only look at the clouds and guess the weather. But Mu Huaixi went up the mountain every morning, so he quietly developed the habit of observing the mountain wind, clouds and sea, and gradually gained experience.

Moreover, Xiao Xi saw that he was interested in this matter, and found an article "Asking the Clouds" from the scroll left by the ancestors of the Mu family.

The record given to him was about the strange clouds and winds in the mountains. He thought it was feng shui superstition at first, but after hiding it and reading it, he found that it was the experience of the doctors of the Mu family in past generations who went up the mountain to collect herbs and go out to see patients.

Of course, he is not as accurate as satellites and instruments, but he can still control the wind direction in the valley.

The high point we now occupy overlooks most of the valley. The group of container houses in the center of the valley looks quiet, but the quietness itself is particularly unusual in the heavily guarded valley.

"Three o'clock, ten o'clock, and a quarter to seven," the observer reported. Just looking down from the high point, there were three ambushes.

Captain Huang looked at Ying Mingcheng and gestured to indicate whether to send people to dive as previously discussed. Ying Mingcheng frowned and did not answer.

He always felt something was wrong and started looking around.

He quickly found a mirror on the body of the silenced sentry, but before he could figure out its purpose, he felt himself being dodged.

Ying Mingcheng squinted his eyes and looked across. The flashes on the opposite side flashed rhythmically a few times and then disappeared. The direction was not the opposite hilltop, but the center of the cliff in the valley. It turned out that there was a sentry post on the cliff.

Captain Huang cursed silently. Who would have thought that these people were like monkeys and could set up guard posts on the steep wall? If they dived like they did before, I'm afraid no one would reach the ground alive!

Ying Mingcheng made a throwing motion.

A row of smoke balls mixed with poisonous grass were ignited and quickly thrown down the cliff. Soon, misty smoke rose from below. Under the hazy moonlight, it looked like mountain mist or miasma.

It was not until white smoke rose and became as thick as solidified egg white that the enemies below reacted and rushed over to check.

From where Ying Mingcheng was standing, he could only see groups of small black dots coming from all directions, and then being engulfed in smoke. The smoke they cast was like a big mouth, swallowing all those people.

Even though Ying Mingcheng didn't let Mu Huaixi use the poison ball before, he told me after he returned.

The smoke balls were also thrown farther away, and the rising smoke confused the enemy. Soldiers holding antidote pills descended from the sky along the vines tied to the sentry post, and a small-scale battle soon broke out.

There were more enemies in the valley than expected, and their weapons were more advanced than those encountered on the front line. Even though the infiltration team took the initiative, they were temporarily suppressed by the powerful firepower.

Ying Mingcheng had sharp ears and vaguely heard angry shouts from the other side amid the sound of gunfire, which made him feel something in his heart.

This voice did not sound like that of an enemy that he always dealt with. Thinking of what the mountain spider had said before, he was afraid that there might be big fish in this valley.

Ying Mingcheng and his team began their attack, and the large force outside also began its offensive.

Unlike the previous defeat where they were dissuaded by the poisonous miasma, this time every warrior took the newly prepared barrier-avoidance pill in advance - the quantity was not large but quite effective - and broke through the miasma barrier and engaged in close combat with the defensive body inside.

The battle lasted until dawn, and the morning light was soaked in blood, but the victory was obviously justice, it was ours!

Mu Huaixi stayed awake all night. Listening to the cheers outside, she picked up the medicine box and exchanged glances with the medical soldiers who were ready to go beside her. Now it was time for them to start working.

The sun rose, and the land at the entrance of the valley was soaked with blood. The wounded were groaning on the spot, and soldiers were walking back and forth not far away to finish off the wounded.

Mu Huaixi took a quick look at the situation and said, "The four of you stay here. Xiao Liu, come with me."

The valley entrance was the most difficult place to attack, but the most serious injuries occurred as they advanced in close combat. Xiao Liu, whom she had called upon, was agile and had cooperated with her many times.

As soon as Mu Huaixi came in, he met a man whose belly was cut by a knife. The man had lost consciousness, and his hands were still covering his stomach, and he couldn't pull them down at all.

Xiao Liu tried it and shook his head at Mu Huaixi.

Mu Huaixi directly took out the golden needle and pierced his wrist and hand socket. It was as if he had found the key. The wounded man's hand immediately slipped down weakly, revealing a bloody wound.

Such an injury was nothing to Mu Huaixi and Xiao Liu now. The debridement, stuffing, suture and dressing were done in one go. Mu Huaixi tied a piece of cloth around his wrist and went to deal with the next person.

The cloth strips are for logistics personnel to see. The ones with bow ties are those that have been processed, the ones with single-ear ties are those that have undergone preliminary processing, and the only black cloth strip is for those who are confirmed dead.

Mu Huaixi tied a black cloth strip around the wrist of a young soldier, and then wiped his face clean with a handkerchief, then stood up solemnly and observed a moment of silence.

He does look very young, but his eyes have dark circles that a young man shouldn't have. He has been constantly traveling, fighting, and circumventing battles. Everyone is walking on the edge of a knife along the way, just to become a sharp knife that pierces the enemy's heart.

Even though we have won the battle, some people will never see the sun tomorrow.

"Rest," Mu Huaixi stroked his face with her hand and closed his eyes. This land will remember the heroes who sacrificed their lives, and so will she.

Life and death are no trivial matters.

Even if he has seen countless deaths, Mu Huaixi will never become numb to death.

She will transform her hatred of death into a pursuit of medical skills and strive for excellence in treatment methods. As long as she moves fast enough and has enough methods, she can challenge the King of Hell and snatch people from the God of Death.

Mu Huaixi once again sped up the process of treating the wounded until he stepped into the container house in the center of the valley and met up with Ying Mingcheng.

A fierce battle also took place here. Her feet were already stained with blood, and when she came in, she almost sprained her waist due to the slippery blood.

"careful."

Ying Mingcheng directly carried her in and placed her next to the wounded before discussing the next step with Captain Huang.
