Victory was just around the corner, but these people ruined it all, and all the effort and energy we had put in was wasted.
Dong Ge and his men had no choice. When it comes to making decisions, Dong Ge is the most decisive. He immediately turned around and wanted to leave with his men.
After being reminded by Wu Tianxiang, Si Cheng and his group realized that the people in front of them were Dong Ge's gang.
After searching for so long, we finally found them, how could we let them leave?
Si Cheng led the people of Pinghe Village to give chase immediately, even taking out guns that they rarely used.
Now they no longer hesitated to use their bullets, aiming whenever they had the chance, and Ma Tao and his men began to fight back.
Dong Ge and his men just wanted to leave as quickly as possible, without even caring whether their brothers were keeping up.
It wasn't until they heard the gunshots that they realized things were going to get bad. They dared to launch such a large-scale attack because they knew the army wouldn't easily point guns at civilians, and they had gathered so many ordinary civilians to use as cannon fodder in front of them.
But the group that joined later didn't seem to have this concern. They kept chasing and beating them, and the number of their brothers behind them was decreasing.
Old Fang glanced back at the small number of people and gritted his teeth as he asked Dong Ge, "Boss, this can't go on. We can't outrun bullets."
Dong Ge: "We have to run even if we can't outrun them. Only if we get to Lao Si's side will we have a chance to escape."
Old Fang thought about the escape route they had discussed earlier, and knew that this was the only way. He could only grit his teeth and not look back at the brothers who were falling one after another.
Although Si Cheng and his men were doing their best to catch up, those who had been shot and wounded in front of them were still determined to hinder their progress and try to create opportunities for Dong Ge and his men to escape.
They were slowly widening the gap between them, and if they escaped, it would be even more troublesome to find them again later.
Si Cheng no longer concealed his strength. He put away his gun and used a machete in one hand and a hammer in the other, forcefully knocking away anyone who approached or tried to stop him.
Anyone hit by his hammer or the back of his knife would be sent flying, completely unable to resist.
He was like a human-shaped weapon, clearing a path in front of him.
This stunned Ma Tao and the others who were seeing his strength for the first time. "This is too amazing."
But they only hesitated for a moment before immediately taking their weapons and following them, knowing that they couldn't let them leave at this point.
Although the road had been slightly repaired, it was still not very smooth, making it difficult to run, and gradually Medi couldn't keep up.
Seeing that she was about to fall behind, Dong Ge went up and took her hand to run together, which slowed down their pace.
"Dong-ge, don't worry about me. With me dragging everyone down, we won't be able to get away." Mei-di shook off his hand. She was already very grateful that Dong-ge was still willing to drag her forward at this time.
She always knew that Dong Ge wasn't a good person, but he had always been very good to her, especially now that he didn't want to abandon her and would regret his previous decision.
Dong Ge grabbed her arm and continued running forward, saying, "Instead of wasting your energy talking, you should put in more effort. As long as we get to Lao Si, we'll have a chance."
It was only then that Meidi realized that Liu Zheng, the fourth brother, was not there. Remembering how the brothers had always been secretly discussing things, she guessed that Liu Zheng's place must be their escape route.
When a person has something to look forward to, their explosive power is astonishing. Meidi was instantly filled with hope again, and her speed increased accordingly.
But this time their luck wasn't so good. Si Cheng and his men were getting closer and closer to them, and there were fewer and fewer people behind them who could shield them from bullets.
Dong Ge and his men also drew their guns and fired back as they ran. Si Cheng's hearing and eyesight had improved a lot compared to before, and he had already reminded his companions to be careful while they were firing back.
Once within firing range, Sicheng aimed directly at the direction of the leader without hesitation.
As Lao Fang's left foot struck the target, he immediately collapsed to the ground. Knowing he couldn't escape, he shouted to Dong Ge, "Boss, I'll hold them off, you guys get out of here!"
After saying that, he turned around and, with a death wish, fired at Sicheng and his men.
Yun Zhixin was caught off guard and was shot in the arm by Lao Fang. The gun in his hand fell to the ground as he felt the pain.
Wu Shan, who had been standing next to him, raised his hand and struck Lao Fang between the eyebrows, then quickly helped him up.
"How's it going, Captain Yun?"
"I'm fine, but the rest is up to you." Yun Zhixin supported his arm and shook his head to reassure the clansmen surrounding him.
Si Cheng glanced back and, seeing that the wound wasn't fatal, turned and continued the chase.
Meidi turned around and saw the other person getting closer, then shoved Dong Ge, "Let's go!"
After saying that, he turned around and fired several shots at Sicheng. Dong Ge took a few steps back and pulled her forward.
Seeing that she was still struggling, Dong Ge grabbed her hand tightly and said, "Don't cause trouble, we're almost there."
Dong Ge wasn't saying this to comfort her; rather, it meant that those who stayed behind had already begun providing support.
Si Cheng and his men hadn't expected this backup plan. They were almost hit by their bullets and had to stop to find cover to fight back.
Dong Ge and his group successfully reunited with Lao Si Liu Zheng, who had stayed behind. "This time we failed, we have to get out of here quickly."
Seeing them run all the way here, Liu Zheng knew the outcome. "Where's Second Brother?"
"He didn't escape. He was shot in the leg, and we don't know how he is now. There was no way to stop and check on him in that situation." Dong Ge felt a little guilty when he said this, after all, Lao Fang had tried to buy him some time in the end.
“We’re dawdling here, we need to get going,” the third brother urged them, seeing that they hadn’t gotten to the point yet. “We can’t hold out much longer, if we don’t leave now, none of us will be able to leave.”
Dong Ge was aware of the situation, so he carried all the things he had prepared for this trip on his back and said, "Pass down the word, make the final arrangements, and then we'll leave."
Meidi didn't say a word from beginning to end. It's impossible for her not to have any reservations. Dong Ge had made so many arrangements beforehand, but he didn't reveal a word to her. This shows that he doesn't really trust her.
But when I thought about how I had never abandoned her, I felt a little better.
Looking around at the pitch black, I wonder where Ah Kun is now? Has he cleverly hidden himself away?
She knew that if Dong Ge managed to escape this time, he would definitely leave this area, and there might not be a chance to meet him again. She could only silently pray that A Kun would be safe and well in the future.
"What are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and grab these things, we need to get out of here right away." Dong Ge handed her a backpack, which looked like it had been prepared in advance.
Without a word, Meidi took it and carried it on her back. Only then did Dong Ge turn around with satisfaction to arrange the next steps.
