Chapter 2279: No Choice

V8 glanced over and said to the family of five, “Hide here until morning. At least you won’t be in immediate danger.”
“Thank you, thank you!” The old man was the first to thank them. He was very sincere and bowed deeply to express his gratitude.
This was the best arrangement for both sides. Whether the family of five could avoid the flames of war was not something Ye Jian and the others could worry about. They still had their own mission to complete.
A small episode did not affect everyone. It only made Ye Jian deeply understand how cruel war was. She also more or less understood why Qin Xiu immediately came to negotiate when he heard that there was a war.
Once the war between countries spread to the borders of China, perhaps one day, the citizens of China would ask the soldiers of other countries for help.
!!
V8, who was walking in front, was like a swimming dragon, silently brushing past the danger zone. Several times, he encountered local militants who went to provide support, but he avoided them safely.
“We’re 800 meters from our destination. We’ll see it once we cross the alley.” V8, with his back pressed against the wall, let out a soft, smoky breath. There was a firefight here not long ago, and the air smelled of smoke and blood.
They needed to go to a particular school. They could reach the nearest street from the school.
Ye Jian had already loaded the bullets and was ready to shoot at any time. She held Qin Xiu’s hand tightly and didn’t let go for a moment.
The four of them, hidden in darkness, passed through two alleys. Then, the school was in sight.
“The main gate is guarded. Go around and climb over the wall.” V8 saw a few armed soldiers standing at the main gate of the school. His eyes darkened as he quickly retreated. “The school has been occupied and the city is probably completely divided. We have to leave quickly.”
The city was divided. Some supported the old government, and some supported the current ruling party. Once Qin Xiu’s whereabouts were exposed, he would very likely become a target.
Qin Xiu rarely spoke. At this moment, he only needed to follow the soldiers who were protecting him with their lives. The only thing he could do was guarantee that nothing would happen to him!
They couldn’t pass through the school’s main entrance, so they had to climb over the wall.
V8 knew the school well. He walked around the main entrance and reached the wall on the left. He bent his knees slightly and folded his knees. He gestured for Ye Jian to go first. “Step on my shoulder and climb over the wall from this side.”
K7 was in charge of keeping watch. He checked the surroundings with a sharp gaze.
Ye Jian nodded. She let go of Qin Xiu’s hand and stepped on V8’s palms. As V8 raised his hands, she quickly climbed up the wall. She leaned against the wall and gestured for Qin Xiu to come up.
Qin Xiu was a man, after all. His body weight was far heavier than Ye Jian’s, and he wasn’t as skilled as Ye Jian and the other two. Although he had some martial arts skills, they were only limited to fighting. He really couldn’t jump on roofs and walk on walls.
Seeing that Ye Jian was as light as a swallow and only needed a run-up to climb up the wall, he took a deep breath. He could only step on the V8’s knee and extend his hand to Ye Jian.
With the help of V8 and K7, Qin Xiu successfully climbed over the wall.
The internal strife in the city quickly spread back to the country, causing the atmosphere at the border to become even tenser. The various ports at the border sent more troops and mobilized heavy weapons.
The military issued a military order overnight, ordering China to send more troops to the border just in case. “Send an armored regiment and two infantry regiments to the north of the border for exercises. Increase the troops at the neighboring ports! All our citizens will evacuate overnight 30 kilometers from the border!
