Chapter 327 Battle, Imminent
"You mean we should change our route and shake them off first?" Han Shizhong asked, following her train of thought.
Su Jin nodded. "Yes."
Han Shizhong looked at the map again, and after a few seconds shook his head, rejecting the suggestion.
"But this would mean we would have to travel nearly a hundred kilometers more, which would take too long."
Su Jin pointed to a spot on the map. "What if we go from here?"
Han Shizhong's expression changed. The route she pointed to was indeed much faster, but it was a "dead end".
"There's a river here, and we can't get around it."
Su Jin said, "If we can't get around it, we'll swim across. If we're lucky, the river will be frozen over, and we can walk across directly."
The conversation between the two attracted the attention of Ding Zhu and the others, who all gathered around.
Han Shizhong frowned deeply, his gaze shifting constantly as he looked at her.
Is she crazy?
They actually thought of swimming across the river in such freezing weather?
This is already a desperate effort!
"The probability of such a wide river freezing over is too low. Swimming across would require too much physical fitness. We might be able to manage, but you and Meng Jiayi probably wouldn't be able to."
Su Jin's expression was resolute. "But this is the best option. As long as we cross this river, Hill 111 is just ahead. Moreover, we don't know the specific situation of Hill 111. If there are ambushes on it, this is also the best direction to infiltrate."
Han Shizhong finally fell silent, knowing that her analysis was correct.
But the risk of doing this is too high. This is just an exercise. Is it really necessary to go to such lengths?
Su Jin had said everything she needed to say, and then patiently waited for him to make his final decision.
"Let's vote." Han Shizhong was clearly wavering, but as the team leader, he needed to consider everyone's situation.
Without a second's hesitation, Wu Mang said, "I agree with Sister Jin's plan."
He would obey Su Jin's wishes unconditionally.
Ding Zhu and Liu Lin exchanged a glance, hesitated for a few seconds, and then gave an affirmative answer.
"We have no objection."
There's no reason why they would choose to back down when Su Jin, a girl, was able to cross the river.
Moreover, after carefully examining the map, this route is indeed feasible, and the key is that it can also catch people off guard.
If the minority submits to the majority, the result is already known, but Han Shizhong still looked at Meng Jiayi and Zhao Niuniu.
Meng Jiayi said confidently, "I can!"
Zhao Niuniu finally nodded.
Han Shizhong looked at Su Jin again, "I agree too!"
The entire team voted unanimously in favor.
Meanwhile, figures pursuing them could be faintly seen in the distance.
"Captain, shall we set off?"
Everyone was on high alert.
Han Shizhong's gaze sharpened. "They're sticking so tight, they really think we're easy prey! We need to deal with this wave first before we can shake them off completely!"
If it weren't for the safety of Su Jin and the other two recruits, he wouldn't have chosen to keep avoiding them.
Since we can't avoid it now, we should face it head-on!
"Prepare for battle!"
Upon hearing these four words, Su Jin's breath hitched, as if some kind of feeling had suddenly been awakened.
I felt nervous, but even more so, I felt an indescribable excitement.
Almost reflexively, he gripped the gun tightly.
The others did the same, spontaneously spreading out to find the most suitable cover.
Battle is imminent.
