There was already a thick layer of snow on my body.
Qu Dongbo lay on the ground, and the white camouflage clothes he was wearing blended into the snow.
From his perspective, the surroundings were quiet and there seemed to be nothing unusual.
But he knew that in this wilderness, under this snow, there were thousands of burning hearts buried.
Tonight is probably the final battle.
Although his joints were frozen stiff, Qu Dongbo didn't dare to move at all.
He knew that Liu He was in the city.
Tonight is the battle between them.
After more than three months of absence, the situation in Rongcheng became increasingly chaotic, and the 756 troops he led carried out some roaming and harassment on the flanks.
Although Liu He was very troubled by his actions, he was currently fighting fiercely with Cao Yulei and could not relax, nor could he spare any troops to fight against him. Therefore, the 756th Unit was like a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, stuck between the two of them.
As long as one side withdraws troops to deal with Qu Dongbo, the other side will discover it and take the opportunity to counterattack.
This is a losing deal that neither party wants to make, so no one can do anything good to Qu Dongbo.
But just half a month ago, a large-scale fight finally broke out between the two sides.
Qu Dongbo knew that this was the best time to attack.
His main force was only one regiment, which could not be compared with the forces of Liu He and Cao Yulei.
However, due to the six-month-long fight, both sides must have suffered losses. Coupled with the negative impact of the war on both sides on the people, Rongcheng is actually in danger.
Liu He was unwilling to accept this, and so was Cao Yulei.
No one is willing to give up such a big piece of fat meat to the enemy. If they fail, they will fall completely from the clouds.
Only Qu Dongbo was resolute, as he knew that both sides were at the end of their strength.
…
It was late at night.
The sounds of fighting in Rongcheng gradually faded away.
The war that broke out half a month ago left both sides severely weakened.
Qu Dongbo had a sudden idea. If he could launch a sudden attack when both sides were at a truce and raid Rongcheng at night, he might get unexpected results.
So he organized a battalion of troops and planned to launch a night attack tonight.
The rest of the battalions were waiting in the rear, and if the outpost was successful, they would provide support as quickly as possible.
This is a risky move.
If it fails, the 956th Unit will not be able to withstand such a big storm and may be excluded from this cake early.
Time passed minute by minute, and it was already early morning.
This is the moment when humans are most relaxed, but it is also the moment when Qu Dongbo and his team are most focused.
They had been buried in the snow for nearly three hours.
When the sound of fighting in Rongcheng gradually disappeared, Qu Dongbo took the lead and emerged from the snow.
Thanks to the current failure of various machines, the lack of infrared detectors allowed them to rot in the snow for so long. Stretch his stiff joints, he looked at his men rising from the snow one by one, their faces filled with the resolute determination to die.
Qu Dongbo nodded in satisfaction without saying much.
A night attack was a risky move and must not cause too much noise. They marched silently towards Rongcheng, just as if they had rehearsed it a thousand times.
"Bang--"
"boom--"
A huge explosion sounded from inside Rongcheng, followed by the sound of fighting.
Breaking the silence of the night sky.
In the distance, the sun, a rare sight during the haze season, is rising slowly from the east.
The light shines through the thick clouds, stirring up different fireworks colors.
…
Antu County.
Lu Qin suddenly shuddered and woke up from his sleep.
She found herself still hunched over the desk in her office.
Only the candle burning on the table was dimmed. It turned out that she had accidentally fallen asleep while reading documents.
She had probably slept for a long time, and the sudden drop in temperature in the middle of the night made her shiver unconsciously.
It turned out to be just a dream.
Lu Qin let out a long sigh. She had just had a nightmare. In the dream, Qu Dongbo was covered in blood and said to her: I'm sorry, Xiaoqin... I can't protect you anymore.
Lu Qin was suddenly awakened, and found that he was sore all over. After calming down, Lu Qin comforted himself that dreams are usually the opposite of reality.
.
But she couldn't fall asleep, so she simply lit another candle and continued to review the documents.
She didn't know how Qu Dongbo was doing recently, and the only thing she could do was to protect the entire Antu County for him and herself.
…
"Sister Lu!"
One day in November.
Lu Qin was meeting with Antu County staff to discuss the resettlement plan for disaster victims next year, but he heard Xiao Song's anxious shouting outside the door, with a hint of joy in his voice.
Lu Qin frowned. Xiao Song came to see her while she was in a meeting, so she figured something serious must have happened. She apologetically gestured to everyone in the meeting to leave.
When she opened the door, she saw Xiao Song reporting to her with a beaming smile, "Sister Lu! Adjutant Zhang is back and said we won!"
What what won?
Lu Qin didn't react for a moment. Xiao Song, feeling a little disappointed, repeated her words again: "Sister Lu, are you so happy you've lost your mind? Captain Qu won! We've taken Rongcheng! We are the final winners!"
A huge feeling of joy surged in Lu Qin's heart, and she felt that all the blood in her limbs had filled her head, making her feel a little dizzy.
"Are they back?"
She didn't know how to describe it. At this moment, the only thing she wanted to do was to see him come back!
Come back safely!
"Don't worry, Adjutant Zhang said that there are too many things going on in Rongcheng, and the regiment commander stayed in the city to deal with things. He came back to report the news."
Lu Qindu's mind was already racing. She didn't care about the people who were still in the meeting and ran straight towards the entrance of Antu County.
Leaving Xiao Song helplessly shouting: "Sister Lu, we are wrong, we are going in the wrong direction, Adjutant Zhang is waiting for you at the border post!"
