A mountain area in Lao Mo.
After capturing Zhou Tonghui, Wen Xiaorou and other family members, Yuan Biao led the Marines and continued to pursue in the direction of Su Tianbei's escape.
However, the mountain roads along the way were filled with the enemy's soldiers who were left behind to cover the retreat, as well as hidden firepower points. This caused Yuan Biao's assault team to suffer uncontrollable casualties every time they moved forward, greatly blocking their advance speed and engaging in a meat-grinding war.
“Da da da!”
“Boom boom boom!”
The sound of gunfire and explosions echoed continuously on the mountain road. There were flames burning everywhere, and the bodies of both sides were scattered all over the ground.
Yuan Biao commanded the troops, preparing to expand the team's radiation range and advance forward in a dispersed manner. But at this moment, the voice of the observer sounded in the communication channel: "Report! We have found the traces of the Black Water Army. They have sent two battalions of troops, which have crossed the mountains and are about to connect with Su Tianbei's troops!"
After hearing the observer's report, Yuan Biao frowned, realizing that the possibility of continuing the pursuit was very low.
He didn't know how many soldiers were blocking him in front of him. Now the Blackwater Army had joined the battle, and his troops couldn't effectively attack the other side. At the same time, he captured some military dependents and two very important targets, so the benefits were acceptable.
Yuan Biao is a ruthless person. He never hesitates when attacking and never fights when it is time to leave. He is as calm as a machine on the battlefield.
After a brief thought, Yuan Biao called on the fleet to provide them with air support and quickly withdrew from the battlefield.
…
At the same time, Su Tianbei led his troops, protecting his family, and continued to rush along the mountain road.
After running tirelessly for a long time, a dense group of troops appeared in the forest ahead, all wearing the uniforms of the Blackwater Corps. They held military searchlights and began to send signals in this direction.
The scout's voice was heard on the communicator: "Report to the commander! The troops ahead are from the Blackwater Legion, and they are transmitting signals to us for connection!"
The moment he heard the report, Su Tianbei's tense body suddenly relaxed. The last bit of strength that was supporting him in his body quickly disappeared, and he fell to the ground with a thump.
“Captain!”
Lu Yan hurriedly came over with several guards and helped Su Tianbei up.
At this time, Su Tianbei's face was pale and his body was trembling slightly. The scene of Zhou Tonghui calling him before leaving kept lingering in his mind.
The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and his eyes turned red. Although his relationship with Kong Zhenghui and Zhou Tonghui had not been particularly close, they were old brothers who had fought together. He always believed that it was normal to have internal conflicts, and even brothers would quarrel. At critical moments, they had to unite to face the outside world.
In fact, Zhou Tonghui's reaction just now was the same...
A feeling of anger overflowed in my heart again, boiling up uncontrollably!
He looked at the dark night sky above his head and suppressed his emotions.
After confirming Su Tianbei's condition, the regiment's staff officer Lu Yan took action and began issuing orders, instructing the troops to quickly verify the number of military dependents' families while connecting with the Blackwater Corps.
The soldiers began to check the number of people, while the families of the soldiers and their families were trembling in the woods. This battle had left them in shock and filled them with fear.
Everyone looked very disheveled and covered in dust. Many had been injured while escaping and were receiving treatment.
"Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu where are you?"
"Woo woo woo, mom..."
Some family members were crying and looking for their loved ones. The whole forest was filled with a feeling of depression and sadness.
After a while, Lu Yan came back, squatted on the ground, and reported to Su Tianbei who was lying there: "Su Tuan, I counted the number of family members of the military families. Currently, a total of 25 family members are missing. According to the information at the scene, 13 people are confirmed dead, and the rest are all missing. They are likely to have been captured by the enemy."
For a group of nearly 400 military dependents, the loss of only 25 people in this ambush and raid was actually acceptable.
But Su Tianbei was still very angry and confused at this time, but he still tried to control his emotions, slowly stood up, and ordered Lu Yan: "Send two teams to support our troops behind. If anyone catches up, rescue them as soon as possible."
"good."
Lu Yan nodded and quickly began to mobilize the troops.
Su Tianbei stood up again, took out his cell phone and made a call.
Soon, the call was connected and Gu Baishun's voice rang out: "Hello?"
Su Tianbei said straight to the point: "Baishun, I was attacked here. Kong Zhenghui betrayed us and leaked our information."
Hearing this, Gu Baishun was obviously stunned for a moment and said nothing.
Su Tianbei took the phone and carefully instructed him: "Notify the evacuation units along the way to screen all the accompanying personnel. All the people in the association and those who have a relationship with the Kong family must be strictly checked, and their mobile phones must be taken away, and they are prohibited from contacting the outside world. Especially the important high-ranking cadres who are evacuating, they must be strictly checked!"
"Okay, I understand." Gu Baishun also reacted and immediately asked with concern: "How is the situation over there?"
After a long silence, Su Tianbei gritted his teeth and said, "Tonghui, Wen Xiaorou... and 25 other military dependents' families are in trouble..."
Gu Baishun was stunned and fell silent again.
Su Tianbei's judgment was well-founded. When Zhou Tonghui handed him the mobile phone, he mentioned Kong Zhenghui, and that was the only time the entire evacuation team contacted the outside world at night, so many things were not difficult to judge.
…
Half an hour later, Dragon City.
More than forty military vehicles moved quickly, passed through the occupied area of District 1 unimpeded, and finally slowly arrived at the front-line suppression base of the First Corps.
In front of a building, soldiers from Area 1, dressed in neat uniforms, lined up to welcome guests, demonstrating a high standard of reception.
“Squeak—”
The convoy slowly stopped in front of the building, the car door opened, and Kong Zhenghui got out of the car, looking at the soldiers in front of him who were welcoming him with a complicated look.
"brush!"
The soldiers automatically divided into two rows and stood on both sides, making way for Kong Zhenghui.
At the same time, Kang Dinghuang had just returned from the rebel base for Kong Zhenghui. He brought Lu Zhen with him and walked over enthusiastically, extending his hand and flatteringly saying, "President Kong, welcome! On behalf of the millions of people in Longcheng, I would like to thank you for your contribution to the peaceful reunification of Longcheng!"
These are the most disgusting words Kang Dinghuang could ever say.
Kong Zhenghui smiled stiffly, shook hands with Kang Dinghuang, and said, "It's time to end the war in Longcheng."
"Hello, President Kong. I am Lu Zhen, the Secretary General of the Chinese Legion. I am glad that you can join us."
"Hello… "
After greeting both parties, Kong Zhenghui looked at the two people in front of him with joy, thought for a moment, and asked tentatively: "How is the situation over there?"
Kang Dinghuang stared into Kong Zhenghui's eyes and said with a smile: "It's a pity that the bandit leader Su Tianbei received support from the Black Water Army and failed to capture him. However, the vice president of the Huatong Association, Zhou Tonghui, and Yu Mingyuan's wife Wen Xiaorou were successfully arrested and brought to justice."
Hearing this, Kong Zhenghui was obviously stunned and his face turned pale.
