Having hidden and settled Chu Qianqian, Qin Fang was now fighting a lone battle.
However, just like the Eighth Route Army of the past, although conditions were harsh, he could create his own advantages to defeat the enemy.
The equipnt of the Remnant Wolf rcenary Corps was quite impressive; basically, every mber was equipped with a set of individual combat gear. Perhaps it wasn't on par with the U.S. Military's, but it was still formidably impressive.
Having just killed four more enemies, it was a pity that Qin Fang couldn't touch those four bodies, nor could he claim the spoils of war, but the previous six enemies had already delivered him quite a few items.
Like—hand grenades!
This thing was a true weapon of mass destruction, blowing up with a bang. Even rcenaries wearing equipnt couldn't withstand it—they'd either die or be severely injured.
And this thing—coincidentally, out of those six rcenaries, two had brought one each, and Qin Fang had confiscated them... Initially, Qin Fang didn't want to use them.
This was within Dragon Country's territory, where firearms were strictly controlled, let alone such powerful weapons as hand grenades.
The MP5 at least had a silencer attached. In such woods, the noise wasn't too loud, but once a grenade exploded, it would indeed cause a thunderous noise.
The Remnant Wolf rcenary Corps didn't want to cause trouble, so only a very few people carried this kind of weapon of mass destruction. That Qin Fang killed six n and only found two carrying grenades indicated this.
Although there were only two grenades, if used skillfully, they could have an incredibly powerful effect...
"Hehe, you devils, co to your death..."
Qin Fang took a short break; the pain in his leg eased a lot. His gaze once again turned to the woods, knowing that after the recent commotion, the enemy would likely be gathering their forces to encircle and suppress him.
The essence of guerilla tactics lay in defeating the enemies one by one. Qin Fang's gunmanship and tactics had caused heavy casualties to the rcenaries. They weren't fools; naturally, they wouldn't give Qin Fang such opportunities again. Gathering their forces, they planned to use their nurical advantage against Qin Fang. If Qin Fang continued with the sa tactics as before, that would be truly dangerous.
If he encountered the enemy and ca under fire, the chance of escaping alive would be greatly reduced.
Yet with these two grenades in his possession, Qin Fang might still achieve greater military success... As for the trouble that the grenades' explosion could bring, Qin Fang didn't care.
In comparison, the Remnant Wolf rcenary Corps worried more about attracting attention than Qin Fang did... otherwise, they wouldn't have chosen such a remote location to make their move.
...
"Deputy Commander, we've completely lost contact with Groups C and D, and Groups B and E are more than half down..."
The Remnant Wolf rcenary Corps was reporting their casualties, not expecting that of the six teams, almost half were gone, and they were still in the dark.
"Gather and strike, we must annihilate the target..."
The Deputy Commander's expression darkened a bit. Originally, he believed that only two squads had suffered significant losses, but he didn't expect two other squads with quite good strength to have been completely wiped out by the enemy.
However, after making quick arrangents, he imdiately slipped into the forest by himself, seemingly in search of a favorable sniping position.
The remaining rcenaries gathered together, forming a group sowhat larger than before, and began to move deeper into the mountains.
Due to Qin Fang's recent guerilla tactics, while hunting the enemy, he had also limited his own range of movent, being forced to retreat towards the mountain's peak.
Once pushed to the peak, the situation would be truly dangerous. Not only were the enemy numbers greater than Qin Fang's, but Qin Fang was also worried about Chu Qianqian's safety, as the place where Chu Qianqian was hiding was getting closer to the searching range of these rcenaries.
With these people's keen senses, Qin Fang didn't believe he had hidden Chu Qianqian well enough. If she were captured by these n, it would be quite difficult for Qin Fang to rescue her.
"No, I must quickly restrain these people..."
Qin Fang thought anxiously. Chu Qianqian was in trouble because of him, and besides, the Qin and Chu families were old friends. Qin Fang couldn't just run away; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to explain to the Chu family.
Thus, Qin Fang had to either lure them away or annihilate them before the rcenaries discovered Chu Qianqian. Looking at the two grenades in his hand, Qin Fang's expression beca much more resolute.
In the dark forest, the enemy was rapidly advancing, but Qin Fang didn't continue retreating; instead, he started moving closer towards the enemy's direction.
...
Chu Qianqian was hiding inside a cave, camouflaged outside with withered branches and fallen leaves. On such a night, as long as she stayed quiet, it was very difficult to be discovered…
However, similarly, Qin Fang had left, leaving her alone here. The silence around her was such that aside from her own breathing and heartbeat, she could not hear even the slightest sound.
Even though she had just gone through a barrage of gunfire, narrowly skirting on the edge of life and death, which had substantially emboldened her, at the end of the day, she was still a girl. Perhaps she had been through so dangerous and thrilling incidents, but compared to the recent gunfight, all her past experiences amounted to nothing…
The re thought of what had just happened set Chu Qianqian's heart trembling nonstop. Qin Fang had nearly lost his life; if it weren't for him, she likely wouldn't have stood a chance of survival, a thought that filled her with dread…
The mountains and forests were evidently very tranquil, not a single sound to be heard, and the surrounding darkness instilled fear in soone as gentle as Chu Qianqian.
But there were no loud gunshots, nor could she hear the sounds of her pursuers on the move, and certainly no cries of agony from Qin Fang, which eased her mind sowhat; at least this ant that Qin Fang probably hadn't encountered any trouble…
As for the concern that Qin Fang might abandon her, Chu Qianqian wasn't too worried. If Qin Fang had intended to leave her behind, he would've done so earlier and fled alone… Why bother escaping with her in his arms, especially when he had been shot twice in the process?
"What kind of man is he? Why would soone want to kill him?"
The thought of Qin Fang being shot twice yet still risking his life to lead the enemies away deeply moved her…
At the sa ti, Chu Qianqian realized that these people were definitely after Qin Fang; she was rely collateral damage. However, she bore no resentnt towards Qin Fang but was puzzled as to what sort of enemy he had made, that they would employ such forces against him.
Regrettably, even Qin Fang himself could not make sense of it…
Although he had many enemies, it didn't seem any of them would go to the extent of utilizing a rcenary group to take him down, yet soone had done precisely that, leaving Qin Fang utterly baffled…
"I hope he doesn't run into trouble…"
Chu Qianqian understood that she couldn't be of any help right now; staying calm and remaining here was the best support she could offer Qin Fang… With this thought, her heart settled, and she leaned against the cool stone walls of the cave, dressed in relatively thin clothing.
Susu susu~~
It was then that a very faint rustling noise suddenly arose from within the mountain forest.
Under normal circumstances, such a sound wouldn't have garnered any attention, but on such a quiet night, in such a precarious situation, even Chu Qianqian, who had never experienced such peril, imdiately sensed sothing.
"Hmm? Soone's there!"
Chu Qianqian tightly gripped the gun in her hand, her heart tensing up completely, her body stiffened, her eyes cautiously watching for any changes in the environnt outside.
Five or six stealthy figures appeared in her field of vision, moving with utmost caution and constantly changing positions, appearing highly vigilant.
The rcenary group was starting to consolidate, but they kept a broad distance to prevent Qin Fang from slipping through any gaps, and this particular squad was encircling from her direction, coincidentally nearing Chu Qianqian's hiding place.
Chu Qianqian dared not move, and even held her breath, her heart elevated to her throat, aware that these were the people out to kill Qin Fang and herself. Any sound she made would undoubtedly prompt them to shoot at her.
Despite being concealed in the cave, its protection was limited. The adversaries' firepower was strong, and such shelter was insufficient to save her.
The natural environnt in the mountains was sowhat poorer. Even though it was winter and various birds and animals had almost vanished, insects were nearly non-existent, but so animals still lived there, such as… rats!
Unfortunately, this cave might once have housed so large animals, but it had been deserted for a while, and had beco a preferred haunt for rats.
Qin Fang, in his rush at that ti, had only briefly checked for the presence of large predators or venomous snakes, missing the rat burrows…
Thus, at such a dangerous mont, a gray-furred, bright-eyed rat erged from the darkness, and by a stroke of misfortune, it scurried across Chu Qianqian's slender leg…
The little rat was naturally unaware of Chu Qianqian's presence, but as she sat there, incredibly tense, sothing suddenly crawling over her leg almost made her overwheld heart leap out, and she nearly let out an instinctive scream…
Yet, just as she was about to make a sound, she imdiately rembered her current situation. Any noise would surely cost her life… Suppressing such fear, no matter whether it was a rat or a venomous snake that had just climbed over her leg, she still had a chance of survival!
So… she chose to endure!
Between life and death, anyone with a brain would know what decision to make… (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please co to Qidian (qidian) to cast your recomndation votes and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
