Snow Leopard: Building the Strongest Elite Group through Robbery

Chapter 1068 Don't Lose the Watermelon for a Sesame Seed

The regimental commander returned to the starting point with a sense of frustration.

He wanted to curse, even curse Tani Hisao, but when he saw Tani Hisao's shocked face, he suddenly realized that Tani Hisao's feelings were probably even more complicated and regretful than his own.

After all, this time, the heavy losses were not due to my poor command, but rather to his fault. He said that the enemy couldn't possibly have many troops, and because they didn't have many, I became careless.

Still reeling from the experience, Tani Hisao muttered to himself, "Despicable, they really are despicable."

Uei was speechless. Not long ago, his admiration for Tani Hisao also came to an end because of this attack.

"They don't seem to have evacuated," Shangjing said casually.

He was at a loss for words. He had initially thought that Tani Hisao was right, but in the end, it was all wrong, terribly wrong. Completely wrong.

"Let the observation post keep an eye on the attack ahead."

At this moment, Tani Hisao felt as if he had lost half his life. The trust he had painstakingly built up had collapsed because of this incident.

Boom boom boom... boom boom boom...

An hour later, the shelling resumed, followed by deafening shouts of battle.

Hearing the faint sounds of battle outside, Tani Hisao wanted to mobilize his troops to pursue them again, but remembering the embarrassment he had made not long ago, he didn't say it. Uei also didn't want to give the order, for fear of being deceived again.

"Tonight will be the most difficult day for our 14th Division."

No one knew what the other party was thinking; they could only guess. Even if they guessed, they dared not act rashly. If the other party was deceiving them again, then their group would be dealt with once more. Conversely, if the other party really ran away, that would not be a good thing for the 14th Division either.

After sighing, Tani Hisao lit a cigarette. He hoped someone would step forward and suggest that, just in case, troops should be mobilized to go and take a look.

Unfortunately, no one stepped forward. Even his adjutant shook his head slightly, signaling him not to speak at this moment. If the enemy did not withdraw and the troops were attacked again, the 14th Division's dissatisfaction would truly be directed at him.

After coughing, Uei said, "Commander, we have completely blocked their retreat. They are only making desperate attempts to escape, so we have nothing to worry about."

Actually, there was another reason for Shangjing that he didn't mention.

That is, if the Independent Brigade really does run away tonight, then it doesn't matter where they run from, as long as they don't run from the area under their jurisdiction.

"How many times has this happened?" Zhou Weiguo sat down in the command post. The command post had been cleaned up. The entire table was spotless. If there was anything left to clean up, it was some gauze that had been stained with blood and could not be cleaned, as well as empty ammunition boxes and cigarette butts scattered on the floor.

"Second Master, this is the fourth time already." Zhao Shoutian raised his wrist to check the time; "It's 3:15 now."

At 3:15, counting one breath, half an hour has passed since the last time it hurt.

Zhou Weiguo glanced at the backpack next to him, picked it up, looked at the place where he had stayed for several days, and said, "My Independent Brigade has been fighting here for six days and has lost two-thirds of its troops. Now, the remaining troops, as long as they can walk and are still alive, are to assemble at the designated location."

Quietly, the Independent Brigade withdrew. Before leaving, they buried some bombs that they couldn't take with them. According to Zhou Weiguo, even if the Independent Brigade left, they would take the bastards from the 14th Division with them.

"Brigade Commander." After calling out for almost half the night, Xu Hu's voice was almost hoarse, and even his eyes were bloodshot, but the moment he saw Zhou Weiguo, he immediately came to Zhou Weiguo's side and saluted; "Brigade Commander, I have discovered a problem."

"Oh, what's the problem?" Zhou Weiguo took off his backpack and used it as a stool, then handed the water bottle from his waist to Xu Hu.

After taking a sip of water, Xu Hu said, "Brigade Commander, they have brought tanks to the front line, along with a lot of artillery. In addition, they have about a regiment of troops, and they are less than 300 meters away from the front line."

Less than 300 meters away, Zhou Weiguo estimated the distance in his mind and was about to speak when Xiao Ye, who had come with him, let out a howl and pushed Fang Shengli and Xiao Ya aside. Then he rushed up to Xu Hu and said, "Xu Hu, are you telling the truth?"

It was pitch black, but Zhou Weiguo was certain that Xiao Ye was wearing the most genuine smile on his face at that moment; the bastard's voice was even split in two.

Xu Hu was at a loss for words. Having followed the brigade commander for so long, he knew exactly what kind of person he was.

Whether it was dangerous or not was not a consideration for this section chief; in his eyes, there were only interests, and interests that could not be obtained.

“Brigade Commander, look at this…” Xu Hu didn’t know how to answer for a moment.

"Don't pay any attention to him. There are no problems on ordinary days, but when it comes to the important issue of the Independent Brigade's meals, even if he is the King of Heaven, he has to listen to me."

Faced with Ono's words, Zhou Weiguo couldn't find a rebuttal and simply hummed in agreement. "Tell me what's going on, I'm listening."

He glanced at the approximate location of Xiao Ya and the others; "You guys come over and listen too."

About five minutes later, Ono clicked his tongue; "It's like a piece of fat meat being delivered right to your mouth."

Shen Xin clicked her tongue; "I say, Xiao Ye, this time we're breaking out, not attacking. We still have wounded soldiers."

Stop thinking about money and stuff. Can't you think about how this independent trip is different from any other one?

In the past, independent travelers could move freely and do whatever they wanted, but this time is different.

The independent brigade was carrying wounded soldiers, and the combat force had already lost two-thirds of its members. To facilitate the evacuation, even the female soldiers in the field hospital were issued firearms, so that if a firefight broke out during the evacuation, the female soldiers in the field hospital would have something to defend themselves.

At this point, escaping is the most important thing. As for weapons and equipment, no matter how good the Japanese weapons and equipment are, they are still better than the weapons and equipment that the mountain city is currently equipping for the independent brigade.

They're throwing away the sesame seeds to pick up the watermelon.

"Have you forgotten what Xu Hu just said?" Ono habitually took out a cigarette, but thinking about the current situation, he silently put it back in his pocket and said.
