Strongest Soldier King Chapter 275 275: Unidentified Armed Forces

The team that suddenly appeared on the battlefield could not be underestimated. In the situation where it was unclear whether they were friend or foe, coupled with the need to contact the outside world as soon as possible, Luo Zheng decisively chose to retreat. He dashed down the slope in one breath, shouting into his headset as he went, "An unidentified ard force has appeared from another direction, we've got the docunt, ti to retreat."

Upon hearing that they had the docunt, which ant the mission was complete, everyone sprinted without hesitation. On the battlefield, every minute was a matter of life and death. Everyone pushed their speed to the limit. Six people, six shadows in the night, seed like six ghosts in the snowstorm, silent yet omnipresent.

The enemy was five or six hundred ters away, with a small hill in between. In such harsh conditions, blindly firing was just a waste of bullets. Luo Zheng was not worried about the ard force, possibly snipers, that had appeared behind them. He did not arrange for a rearguard attack but instead led his team down the path they ca from at full speed.

About half an hour later, another hill with rugged rocks appeared in the wilderness ahead, which was where Shan Hu was hiding. Shan Hu saw his brothers approaching from a distance, all accounted for, and he breathed a sigh of relief, stood down from alert, and waited for everyone, panting heavily, to co over before he anxiously asked, "What's the situation?"

Luo Zheng, gasping for air, gestured for Shan Hu to wait a mont. The frantic retreat had almost drained Luo Zheng's energy, making his chest feel like it was going to explode. He gasped with his mouth wide open, bent over, letting air into his lungs to calm his extrely oxygen-deprived lungs. After waiting a bit, feeling sowhat better, Luo Zheng scanned his surroundings and said, "Brothers, hang in there a bit longer. Gangzi, Xunzi, take the left side to find sniper positions to ambush. Binzi, Yuanzi, right side. ng Zhu, stay here."

"Yes," everyone responded, scattering to find sniper positions.

"What happened?" Shan Hu, sensing the scent of battle from Luo Zheng's deploynt, asked urgently with a surprised face, his eyes turning stern as he gripped his gun.

"That group was taken care of, but another unidentified ard group appeared. The friend or foe is unclear. Let's not talk about that now, look, is this what you were looking for?" Luo Zheng handed the docunt case and his headset to Shan Hu.

Shan Hu took a look and said with a face full of gratitude, "That's it, this is it, thank you so much."

"Why be polite? Get ready for battle. I'm going to make a call." Luo Zheng quickly said, jumping onto a nearby rock, took out his phone to check for a signal, and hurriedly dialed Lan Xue's private phone number. The phone showed it was turned off, much to Luo Zheng's shock. He hurriedly dialed Ghost Hand's number, which also showed as turned off.

Luo Zheng beca increasingly uneasy and quickly dialed the headquarters. After entering his personal password, the call connected, and it was Captain Wu on the line. Hearing the familiar voice, Luo Zheng exclaid with relief, "Captain, it's ."

"Ghost? Is that you?" Captain Wu shouted in surprise, "Great, it's good you're not dead. Tell your location, and I'll arrange for soone to pick you up."

"Let's not talk about that now, where is she?" Luo Zheng quickly asked.

"She?" Captain Wu obviously knew who Luo Zheng was referring to. He hesitated, causing Luo Zheng's heart to drop as he anxiously asked, "What happened to her? Tell quickly."

"Alright, don't worry. I'll tell you. She went to assassinate the Wolf King, sothing I think you might have guessed. She contacted us yesterday, ntioned she had found Wolf King's whereabouts. There hasn't been any news today, but don't worry. She went with the team; nothing will happen. Where are you?" Captain Wu hurriedly explained.

"Where were they yesterday? Tell quickly." Luo Zheng urgently inquired.

"There's no use being anxious, just co back first, I'll arrange for you to go over, that should be fine, right? Maybe there will be news of her soon? As long as she knows you're safe, she definitely won't act rashly. Regroup imdiately," Captain Wu knew Luo Zheng and Lan Xue's relationship all too well. Upon learning that Lan Xue was in danger, wouldn't Luo Zheng be desperate? It was certain he couldn't be stopped, so it was better to think of a way to lend a hand.

"Alright," Luo Zheng reasoned that it made sense. Without the support of the squadron, even if he knew Lan Xue's whereabouts, it would be useless—he couldn't exactly run there on foot, could he? He looked around and finally his gaze fell on Shan Hu and the others, asking, "Do you know the coordinates here?"

"Who are you with?" Captain Wu asked over the phone.

Seeing Shan Hu shake his head with a bitter smile, Luo Zheng helplessly said, "Track this phone then, I don't know the coordinates. I t with Ghost Team by chance; they seem to have run into trouble, and if we arrive late, we might only be able to collect our bodies."

"Don't turn off your phone," Captain Wu imdiately agreed and went to make arrangents.

Luo Zheng put away the phone without turning it off and shouted to Shan Hu, "Our people will arrive soon, but this phone belongs to the enemy; they might have already tracked it. Everyone, prepare for battle. ng Zhu, go set up mines in a concealable area 500 ters ahead; take all eight grenades we seized."

"Yes," ng Zhu quickly agreed, grabbed the grenades, and hurried off.

Luo Zheng glanced at the other seized ammunition and said, "Ask about the others' ammunition situation. It looks like there's going to be a tough fight ahead. Tell them to spread out as much as possible, don't let the enemy wipe us all out at once." The headset had already been given to Shan Hu, so commands had to be relayed through him.

Shan Hu thought for a mont, then took off the headset and said, "You should command."

"You are now the leader of Ghost Team; what am I to command when you are here? I need to sleep a while; notify imdiately when the enemy appears," Luo Zheng said, customarily looking in the direction where the enemy might co from. Several dark spots appeared on the snow-covered skyline amidst swirling snowflakes, hard to make out clearly. Luo Zheng was shocked and quickly raised his sniper scope to zoom in on the suspicious targets—it was an unidentified ard group, advancing rapidly.

"No good, they're coming, prepare for battle," Luo Zheng exclaid in a low voice, startled. He looked around and found a sniper position to run to, hiding behind so strange rocks and entering combat mode.

Shan Hu also noticed the situation and imdiately whispered into the headset, "Enemy approaching from twelve o'clock, everyone spread out, prepare for battle; everyone be careful and hold fire until ordered." The identity of the approaching group was unclear, and Shan Hu hesitated to open fire recklessly to avoid accidentally hitting his own people.

On this snowfield, beyond any country's jurisdiction, active were various countries' Special Forces—so ca for real combat training, others for specific missions, and still others were involved in hunting and smuggling, a mixed bag. The group ahead might be allies or enemies, the situation unclear, and it was inappropriate to shoot rashly.

"Brother, can you see clearly, is it the group you spotted?" Shan Hu asked Luo Zheng in a low voice.

Luo Zheng observed for a while without making a sound. The previously spotted unidentified ard group was each dressed heavily, clad in camouflage, with faces heavily painted. A brief glance was not enough to discern any details. Although the group ahead looked similar, it was hard to confirm their true identity. Luo Zheng cautiously said, "Fire a warning shot first, and we'll see how things go."
