“Is this considered the end?”
“No matter what, it has come to an end.”
“How many soldiers does the enemy have left?”
He Chenguang sat down and asked Green Snake.
“How would I know? I’m on the same side as you now. If I knew the other party’s background, would I still need Qin Yuan to make a move?”
Green Snake frowned.
Qin Yuan did not have the time to listen to the two of them debate. Their current situation could be said to be not much better than before.
“You still have time to bicker?”
“Do you know how many Daybreak soldiers we let go?”
” I didn’t count. There are a lot of them. At least half of them have run.”
He Chenguang frowned.
“We still have to leave this place immediately and go back to study our next move. This place is no longer safe, and it’s still the other party’s territory.”
Green Snake agreed.
“Yes.”
Qin Yuan nodded. He also understood very well that although they were unprecedentedly tired, it was definitely not time to rest. They had to set off immediately and return to the logistics company’s position.
“Everyone, pack your luggage and return to the logistics company’s camp immediately!”
Qin Yuan ordered.
“Yes, sir!”
Although the group was also very tired, they understood the reason behind it. They immediately perked up and tidied up the things on the battlefield before immediately returning to the forest.
“This operation can only be considered half successful. Although we did not lose many troops, the other party only lost less than one-fifth of their troops. Overall, our subsequent battles are still very difficult.”
Qin Yuan said seriously.
“However, there’s no good way to deal with it now. We can only take it one step at a time.”
“How much combat power do we have left?”
Green Snake asked.
“Less than three hundred.”
“And there are injured people among them.”
He Chenguang replied.
The green snake’s eyes were filled with sorrow.
“Damn it! We are getting fewer and fewer, but the other party is not afraid of exhausting us!”
“That might not be the case. The more people there are, the more they can’t afford to waste time.”
Qin Yuan said in a deep voice.
The reason was the same as before. The other party’s resources were limited, and they could not bring too much. If they wanted to replenish their resources, they would need to travel a long distance. These were all very inconvenient factors.
“They are betting on this attack. If it fails, we will definitely win.”
“Probably within this day.”
Qin Yuan calculated that it had been a day since they started fighting the other party. Qin Yuan estimated that their resources had basically been exhausted, and if they were to supply them from the rear, it would take at least half a day according to this distance.
They were now in an extremely awkward situation. They had spent some time, but it was completely ineffective. This was undoubtedly an opportunity for the logistics company.
“I’ve decided to prepare my troops and launch an attack on them after I return.”
Qin Yuan said in a deep voice.
“What is it? Are you sure? The other party has tens of times our military strength!”
He Chenguang was surprised.
“That’s right! We all know that they have entered a period of exhaustion. We can take the opportunity to escape! Why do you have to hit a rock with an egg?”
“As long as there’s life, there’s hope!”
Green Snake also advised.
“I know what you mean.”
Qin Yuan narrowed his eyes and said.
” However, don’t forget that I promised the old man that I would prove to him that we were the right choice. What would he think if we run away like this?”
After hearing this, the two of them fell silent.
Qin Yuan was right. Their logistics company could adopt a temporary retreat strategy.
But on the other hand, losing his reputation and glory in front of others was something that a warrior could not accept.
” You’re right. As a soldier of the logistics company, honor is far greater than life!”
He Chenguang’s face was fearless.
“Alright, since you’ve decided, I can only accompany you to the end!”
Green Snake also clenched his fists and said with a smile.
“If we can win this battle! Then our deeds will be praised by future generations for a thousand years!”
Qin Yuan’s expression was stern. He was already prepared for the decisive battle.
” However, our people are tired now, and there are many wounded. If we spend half an hour to go back, regroup the troops, and launch the final attack, they will not be able to defend so quickly.”
“Yes!”
Then, the group quickly returned to the logistics company’s camp.
There were no accidents on the way. They returned to the camp in about half an hour.
The people in the camp saw that although they were in a sorry state, they were basically in order and felt very relieved.
The old man had been recuperating here for a day and was in good spirits.
He called Qin Yuan over.
“How is your operation going? Is it smooth?”
The old man went straight to the point.
” How should I put it? It’s considered a success. We repelled three waves of their attacks and only lost less than fifty people.”
Qin Yuan said casually.
“We came back to discuss the next wave of attacks with you.”
“The next wave of attack?”
the old man said with narrowed eyes.
” The enemy’s troops are more numerous than yours, right?”
“You still want to attack?”
Qin Yuan lowered his head and smiled calmly.
This was probably the old man’s test for him. In other words, he was lying.
It tested Qin Yuan’s determination.
” Since we’ve already won the first step, why should we stop?”
“As the saying goes, follow up the victory and pursue. If we escape, not only will I not agree, even the soldiers in the company will not allow me to do so.”
Qin Yuan’s expression was still calm, but his eyes revealed an unshakable aura.
The old man looked at Qin Yuan seriously for a while before smiling.
“You are indeed a person with both courage, strategy, and combat skills. I didn’t misjudge you. Just based on your words, I approve of you very much.”
“Just do it without worry. I’ll take care of the rear. I guarantee that you won’t have to worry about anything.”
Qin Yuan raised his eyebrows.
He knew that the old man was an outstanding scientist, but he had never heard or seen his ability to lead troops in battle.
“Are you serious? This is a real battle. Have you fought in a war before?”
Qin Yuan asked politely.
The old man couldn’t help but laugh.
“When I was young and fighting, you weren’t even born yet.”
Qin Yuan also smiled awkwardly.
The old man was indeed shrewd.
” That’s good. Since you’re an experienced officer, I can rest assured.”
Qin Yuan said with a smile.
“How do you plan to attack?”
The old man continued to ask.
Qin Yuan thought for a moment and said in a deep voice,
“This time, we will fight openly.”
“Oh? Hahaha! Are you sure? Although they might be in a crisis of famine, the difference in numbers is too great. Even if each of them spits, they can drown you.”
The old man laughed.
“It doesn’t matter. I have my ways.”
Qin Yuan said confidently.
“You don’t believe me?”
The old man stopped laughing and looked at Qin Yuan with a sharp gaze.
“No, I think there’s a better way.”
Qin Yuan smiled and shook his head. He explained in a serious tone,
“I know what you’re thinking. You’re a very steady person.”
” As the representative of the older generation of technical talents, you are unparalleled in your field. However, I hope you can understand my role in the logistics company and the brand my style of doing things has formed in their hearts.”
” In other words, they’re already used to the swift and decisive me. If I choose to be conservative, they’ll definitely feel uncomfortable and disrespectful.”
“Do you think my analysis is correct?”
Qin Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the old man.
The corners of the old man’s mouth curled up slightly.
“Not only are your tactics good, but your mouth is also good.”
“I understand what you mean. I can see your determination. I can rest assured now.”
“I’ll just say one thing. I’ll wait for your good news here.”
