Strongest Soldier King Chapter 1495 1495: Desperate Retreat

The night enveloped the snow-covered terrain, the moonlight like water gently caressing the mountains and forests, the wind softly flowing, sweeping the snow off the treetops and causing it to land with a gentle thud, adding so more sounds to the dead silence of this snowy forest, making it even more frightening under the night sky. On a ridge, Luo Zheng was carrying Lan Xue on his back, walking briskly forward. Even though a fighter jet had blown up the helicopter, they would surely send soone up to check, and they would naturally find out that he wasn't dead. A large military force would co pursuing, and he had no guns or artillery, was alone and weak; how to fight?

Run, keep running. That had beco Luo Zheng's only choice, with only one thought in mind: to cross the borderline before the enemy catches up. Lan Xue could feel Luo Zheng's worry and anxiety from his back. If Lan Xue wasn't injured, they wouldn't be worried about being caught given their speed, but now she had beco a burden, complicating the situation.

Lan Xue really wanted to get down and walk herself, but knew Luo Zheng wouldn't agree, so she lay quietly on Luo Zheng's back, trying to reduce his burden as much as possible. She occasionally glanced back, but the forest behind was pitch black, nothing visible. Checking her watch, which had a compass function, she occasionally reminded Luo Zheng to correct his direction.

About ten minutes later, Luo Zheng estimated they were close, quickly switched on the signal device, and put on the headset. The signal device quickly connected to the satellite, and Lan Xing's startled exclamation sounded in the headset: "Brother-in-law, are you all okay?"

"Your sister's foot is sprained, quickly locate us, direct our path." Luo Zheng said in a deep voice, simultaneously boosting Lan Xue higher on his back to carry her more comfortably, his arms like solid stone, steadily supporting Lan Xue.

"Huh? Is it serious? I'll locate you imdiately, hold on." Lan Xing asked in a panic.

"Not a big problem, just check if there are any enemies around." Luo Zheng quickly replied.

"Location successful, about ten kiloters behind you there's enemy activity, a scale of nearly a hundred people. No enemy detected in other directions, we're analyzing the enemy now." Lan Xing's voice sounded anxious in the headset.

"Ten kiloters?" Luo Zheng was taken aback, then imdiately realized that the enemy noticed sothing unusual and sent people after them. For them to catch up so quickly, it showed the incoming enemy wasn't simple. With a grave expression he said: "Quickly find out what troops they are from? How far am I from the borderline?"

"Less than ten kiloters left." Lan Xing quickly replied.

"Ten kiloters?" Luo Zheng silently calculated the distance. At his speed, it was roughly another half an hour, but due to the dark, difficult terrain, that ti might extend. But if the enemy at full speed is only ten kiloters behind, they'll definitely be faster, aning before reaching the borderline, they might be caught.

"What's going on?" Lan Xue asked suspiciously from his back.

"Nothing, about ten kiloters to the borderline." Luo Zheng casually replied, not wanting to worry Lan Xue.

Lan Xue, being so intelligent, quickly realized soone was chasing them but didn't ntion it, laying silently on Luo Zheng's back. Arguing about getting off would waste ti, not disturbing Luo Zheng was better.

"The army has been notified for support." Lan Xing's voice continued in the headset.

Luo Zheng responded, increasing his speed, his eyes growing brighter in the night, like cold stars glittering, emanating unwavering resolution. The enemy was right behind, whether or not they could break through and return ho all rested on this final effort. Luo Zheng exerted all his strength, using Breathing Skill while running to regulate his breath.

Along the way, Lan Xue could feel Luo Zheng's urgency, wanted to break free so he could leave alone, but knew Luo Zheng wouldn't do that; arguing would waste ti instead. This feeling of frustration drove Lan Xue crazy but she was powerless, silently enduring, lips sealed tightly, hating herself for being injured.

Luo Zheng seed to have guessed Lan Xue's thoughts and suddenly spoke: "Xue Er, don't think too much, we can definitely break through and survive, trust ."

"Yes, I know you can." Lan Xue said affectionately, wrapping her arms around Luo Zheng's neck, deeply kissing his cold face and happily saying: "As long as you're here, I'm not afraid even if the sky falls."

Luo Zheng suddenly felt a surge of energy, thinking of Lan Xue's trust, thinking of being caught by the enemy, a burst of heat suddenly filled him, quickly spreading throughout and transforming into endless strength. All fatigue seed to be dispersed by Lan Xue's kiss, his weak body was like a tightened spring, running like the wind.

Love can give people strength, at that mont, Luo Zheng deeply understood this saying's aning. For the sake of his lover, he gave his all, leaving a long trail of footprints across the vast snowfield. In his mind only one thought: cross it for love, for himself.

Twenty minutes later, Lan Xing's voice sounded in the headset: "Brother-in-law, the enemy has caught up, about three kiloters away, it's the Snow Bear Special Forces, over a hundred people following your route. It's clear they discovered you, you must evacuate quickly, almost at the borderline, give it your all."

"So fast? Turns out it's them." Upon hearing it's the Snow Bear, Luo Zheng instantly understood, only the Snow Bear could catch up so quickly. Three kiloters, they'll be here any mont, must speed up. Ignoring asking how far left, he took a deep breath and roared with anger, accelerating once more.

Ten minutes later, suddenly gunfire erupted behind, shocking Luo Zheng who knew the enemy had caught up and spotted them. Without ti to look back, he fiercely ran, stepping on snow like a wounded Wild Wolf driven by the desire to survive, asking as he ran: "Xue Er, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, they missed." Lan Xue quickly replied, her face as cold as frost, brows knitted, eyes filled with endless worry, anxious.

At this mont, Luo Zheng suddenly exerted force with one arm, while running shifted his body sideways, moving Lan Xue to one side. Lan Xue didn't understand what was happening but felt a strong powerful arm move her in front, while another arm ca around to hold her from nearly falling.

Realizing it, Lan Xue suddenly understood that Luo Zheng was now holding her in front, shielding his back from the enemy, not hers. Heart ward, she said: "You're foolish, if sothing happens to you, I wouldn't live alone, why do this? Either of us shielding the bullets is the sa."

"I won't die, don't worry." Luo Zheng laughed, face flushed red from the lack of oxygen, panting heavily, yet his eyes were filled with unwavering resolve, charging forward.

"Bang bang bang!" Gunfire continued behind, now even denser. Luo Zheng dared not stop nor even glanced back, fearing wasting ti, eyes full of yearning—yearning to see the borderline, to see his own people. Life or death rested in this mont, even if he dies, he must safely send Lan Xue ho.

"Ah—!" Luo Zheng suddenly let out a roar, full of endless unwillingness and anger, and the desire to live, like an injured War God, echoing through the mountain's snowfield, rolling away in all directions.
