Chapter 393: The Angry Warlords of the Republic of China vs. the Educated and Well-mannered Overseas Daughter
Xue Cheng was clear about this, and Si Jinnian, as the leader, naturally understood it even more clearly.
The man sitting in the back seat looked calm. He held Quan Jiu's head with one hand to prevent her from hitting it in the bumpy car. With the other hand, he pressed the intercom and began to instruct the vehicles in front and behind to divert at the next intersection.
They had a total of ten cars, each with exactly the same body, with no visible difference in appearance. The anti-peeping glass successfully blocked out prying eyes from outside the window, making it difficult for the enemy to determine their location.
Si Jinnian: "The last five cars will continue to drive towards Jincheng. Xue Cheng, you and the other four cars will drive in the opposite direction."
Xue Cheng frowned: "Third Master?"
At this time, shouldn't we hurry to Jincheng and meet up with the reinforcements?
Si Jinnian's tone was indifferent, yet contained a chilling chill:
"The Fan family won't let us get close to Jincheng alive."
Therefore, the five cars traveling along the original route will become the main targets of attack. Instead of being blown to pieces, it is better to drive in the opposite direction and see if they can get a chance of survival.
Xue Cheng's expression became even more serious. If it wasn't for the last resort, the Third Master would never choose this step.
"This place is still 40 kilometers away from Jincheng. It will take our people an hour to get here. As long as we can hold on for an hour, there's a chance we can be rescued."
Quan Jiu is not as optimistic as him.
Since the Fan family dared to choose this place to attack, it meant that they were aware of the one-hour time difference and that the reinforcements would not have a smooth journey.
Quan Jiu shook his head: "It's better to rely on yourself than on others."
Xue Cheng frowned and looked at her disapprovingly.
A head-on confrontation is absolutely impossible, but there are deep mountains and forests outside the car. Once they get off the car, there is a high possibility that they will lose contact.
Wild beasts and poisonous snakes, temperature differences between day and night, imbalanced body temperatures, lack of water and food, each of these is a fatal factor. Compared to facing the enemy head-on, the survival rate of getting out of the car and escaping in such an environment is not much higher.
Si Jinnian didn't say anything, obviously thinking.
When they reached the next intersection, the five cars behind them drove towards Jincheng without looking back. Quan Jiu noticed that more enemy vehicles chose to follow those five cars.
Her heart sank slightly.
Everyone knows that the survival rate of the people in these five cars is... almost zero.
She withdrew her gaze and, based on the number of vehicles behind her, roughly estimated that the number of people following her was around 120.
15 to 120, there is still a huge gap.
"After passing the hill ahead, pull over." Si Jinnian suddenly said.
Xue Cheng gripped the steering wheel tightly: "Third Master!"
Si Jinnian remained unmoved and calmly ordered:
"Speed up, increase the distance between the cars, and then hurry up and plant a few bombs on the car."
Xue Cheng stepped on the accelerator and said, "I understand."
He always obeys his orders.
…
When Si Jinnian was holding Quan Jiu's hand and walking in the grass where insects and ants were flying, five explosions suddenly came from behind them.
She looked back and saw several small mushroom clouds exploding in the darkness. In the vast darkness, the weapon that reaped lives became the only source of light at this moment.
Si Jinnian held her hand tightly: "Are you scared?"
Ordinary people have never experienced such a situation, so it is natural for them to be afraid.
Quan Jiu shook his head:
"The Big Dipper is on the left, twenty kilometers north of Jincheng. I remember there's a small town there. We can head towards that place."
Xue Cheng held his gun and looked around cautiously. When he heard Quan Jiu's words, he looked at her in surprise. His first reaction was -
Did the Third Master tell her about their plan?
Si Jinnian's gaze fell steadily on Quan Jiu's face through the remaining faint firelight.
She was so calm that she didn't seem like a spoiled lady at all.
There were snipers again, and late-night racing. Just now, dozens of lives turned into wisps of smoke. Not to mention ordinary women, even ordinary men would be temporarily panicked when encountering such things. But she was not afraid or panicked. Instead, she came up with the best solution in just two minutes.
Si Jinnian pursed his lips.
He felt like he had picked up a great treasure.
Si Jinnian held her hand and continued walking forward:
"How do you know there's a small town twenty miles north of Jincheng?"
This town is so small that it may not even be marked on the map.
When Quan Jiu heard this question, he staggered for a rare moment.
Si Jinnian hurriedly grabbed her: "What's wrong?"
Quan Jiu touched his nose and lowered his voice: "Ahem...it was that time in your study last time...you didn't put the map away."
study?
map?
Si Jinnian thought carefully for a long time before he suddenly remembered the scene from that night...
He pinched her lower back and pushed her against the table. It seemed as if there was indeed a map on the desk in the study...
At some point, her curled and tightened fingers suddenly exerted force and wrinkled a corner of the map.
Si Jinnian didn't know whether to be angry or laugh.
At that time, she still had the time to figure out the location of the town in the east, south, west or north direction? How many kilometers away was it from Jincheng?
The corners of his mouth twitched: "It seems that I haven't worked hard enough."
Quan Jiu's back suddenly tightened, and she realized where his anger lay, and she immediately began to put out the fire.
"No... The only reason I remember it is because you made me lie on the desk for an hour."
She stared at the map for more than an hour. How could she not remember it?
Si Jinnian's lips curled slightly: "Why are you so nervous? I didn't say I was going to punish you."
Quan Jiu breathed a sigh of relief.
Just don't be angry.
"Since you have such a good memory, I'll reward you by memorizing the entire map's terrain."
Quan Jiu: “???”
She widened her eyes and looked at Si Jinnian's jawline in disbelief.
The entire map is densely packed with tens of thousands of routes. Even if her memory is extraordinary, it would take her a week to memorize them all, right?
This is the result of not eating, drinking or sleeping.
Si Jinnian held her hand. Of course, he didn't want to carry her on his back for so long. He just wanted to have fun and scare the girl occasionally.
"I have to check after you finish reciting it. You are not allowed to just do it half-heartedly."
Quan Jiu: “…”
She felt like the sky was falling.
…
The pursuers behind them were coming very quickly, and Quan Jiu and Si Jinnian had no time to rest at all, so they could only keep moving forward.
It had just rained yesterday, and the mountain road was muddy and rugged. Everyone's shoes were already covered in mud, which was a terrible sight.
At midnight, the temperature in the mountains dropped suddenly and remained at three or four degrees. From time to time, a cold wind carrying icy rain blew, blowing on the body and freezing people to the bone.
Even though the two of them kept holding hands, the temperature in their palms did not rise.
Si Jinnian took off his military coat and wrapped it around Quan Jiu.
Quan Jiu looked at him, who was only wearing a thin shirt, and said disapprovingly:
"You should wear it."
——Dividing line——
Jiuye: "I'm sorry, Xiaojinzi, I'm going to open it big."
