“Received.”
They had scouted various escape routes beforehand, so the terrain was all too familiar to them. Swiftly, they plunged into the forest, and all 200 of them completely disappeared from sight.
Not a single man hurt, they had dealt a devastating blow to their opponents without shedding a drop of blood. Just thinking about it filled them with exhilaration.
“It seems we’ve truly fought a flawless battle this time,” they said.
“Today was just awesome.”
Cheering voices of the soldiers came through the radio, and He Chenguang’s lips curled into a proud smile.
“Everyone, prepare to make a break for it. Save your energy,” he said.
Even as every comrade was abuzz with discussion, He Chenguang knew that Dong Zhejun and the members of the Daybreak Organization would soon be frantically chasing after them. The time for escape had come.
“Don’t worry, they won’t catch up.”
“I’m not the least bit afraid of these defeated troops.”
“Enough talk, just follow orders and run.”
As He Chenguang issued the command once more, he looked towards the distant mountain Qin Yuan and the others had crossed. He had to circle that mountain and lure the pursuers on a long detour before he could rendezvous with Qin Yuan and his group.
He had done this to ensure the safety of that old professor. Who could have expected Qin Yuan to be so clever, employing such a clear-cut stratagem.
Now, the team members held boundless admiration for Qin Yuan’s wisdom, and were determined to learn from him should the opportunity arise.
On the other side, Qin Yuan, accompanied by Gui Li and others, had crossed two mountains. As the sky far off began to darken completely, he gave an order.
“We’ve crossed two mountains, let’s take a break.”
“No more, I can’t run anymore. Let’s rest for a bit,” protested someone.
Hearing what Qin Yuan said, Gui Li truly didn’t want to run another step. He felt as though it wasn’t him running, but the two people beside him dragging him forward.
Gui Li even felt like he had run a lifetime’s worth of paths and would willingly die right there, just so long as he didn’t have to run anymore.
“Received, rest in place.”
“Received, rest in place.”
As one after another, team members acknowledged the order, voices started coming from all directions.
They hadn’t all stayed close to Qin Yuan; instead, they were positioned all around, protecting the central strength of their company.
At Qin Yuan’s command, everyone began resting on the spot, some even climbed trees to keep an eye on Zhenyuan’s situation.
This level of strenuous activity was nothing new to them. Old Man Yang was so tired that all he could do was gasp for breath, unable to utter a single word.
Seeing how exhausted he was, Qin Yuan approached, helped him catch his breath, and after five minutes, Elder Yang finally felt his breathing steadied.
“How are you feeling now? Any better?” Qin Yuan asked softly amid the darkness, careful not to speak too loudly and risk revealing their location.
“Better now. I just got so tired I almost couldn’t catch my breath,” Old Man Yang jested with self-deprecating humor, feeling apologetic for lagging behind due to his age and declining physical prowess.
“You did really well. With some more training in the future, you could be close to our level of special forces operatives,” Qin Yuan said softly, genuinely impressed with Old Man Yang’s stamina, which was remarkable for someone usually bound to a lab.
“You’re just teasing me,” Elder Yang replied, still maintaining a good mood. Looking out into the dark forest, he posed a question.
“Dong Zhejun won’t be catching up now, will he?”
As Qin Yuan looked into the distance, contemplating Elder Yang’s question, he was certain Dong Zhejun was seething with rage.
Simply picturing the fierce look on his enemy’s face as he scoured the mountains for them brought a smirk to Qin Yuan’s face.
“That I can’t guarantee, so after a brief rest, we better move again,” he said.
How could one guarantee safety when the enemy, led in a wild chase by He Chenguang and the others, could eventually spot them? After all, didn’t the enemy have ten times their strength?
“How is everyone doing? Got enough rest? Get ready to depart.”
“We’ve rested well.”
“We’ve rested well.”
Gui Li was exhausted, her legs felt as though they were filled with lead, but she knew that life was the most important thing and didn’t speak another word, already beginning to follow Qin Yuan’s orders.
“Get ready to depart.”
“Roger that.”
At his command, Qin Yuan took the lead once again, guiding the two teams forward as they helped Gui Li to her feet and started running forward once more.
This time, Gui Li did not say anything extra, quietly following by their side.
The path down the mountain was extremely difficult. At this moment, she truly understood what it meant to find it easier to go up the mountain than to come down.
Then came a series of clattering sounds as stones were tread upon, and Gui Li’s body lurched toward the ground.
Just as she was about to call out to Qin Yuan, a hand grasped hers and urgently warned her.
“Be careful, don’t make a sound.”
Although this path was the safest as it led straight to the county town at the base of the mountain, it was also the steepest.
She felt tears streaming down her face as she clenched her teeth tightly, daring not to utter another sound.
“Mm, I understand.”
She responded, and seeing Qin Yuan, who simply reached out with his right hand and slowly pulled her all the way up.
“Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.”
Old Man Yang saw Gui Li’s tears streaming down as she came up but didn’t dare to speak as he looked at her inquiringly.
“Alright, everyone get ready to keep moving.”
After letting the two of them catch their breath for a mere minute, without any more delays, the descent resumed with everyone heading down the slope once again.
On the other side of the hill, He Chenguang walked shakily, only hearing occasional gunshots emanating from behind.
It seemed Dong Zhejun and his military strategist were indeed quite capable.
He Chenguang and Geng Hu grumbled to each other.
“Didn’t expect this guy to be so relentless in pursuit.”
Geng Hu chuckled softly.
Those guys were certainly fuming with anger; how could they not chase after them?
He looked at He Chenguang and spoke directly.
“How could he not chase you after you beat them so badly just now?”

“You brat, stop talking so much and focus on escaping.”
“What do you think? We’ll talk when we catch up with the leader.”
Both of them were finding amusement in their suffering, completely unfazed even with many members of the Daybreak Organization following behind them.
Hundreds of meters behind them, just as Geng Hu had guessed, He Chenguang was indeed leading his troops in hot pursuit.
“Boss, take a break.”
The strategist, seeing him disregard his own safety and leading at the front, was genuinely worried and reminded him.
Chasing through the night, going on like this without rest was bound to take a toll on his body.
But as the boss, he didn’t take the advice to heart and insisted on pushing forward again.
“No, today I must catch all these little brats under my gun.”
At this moment, he was truly furious. After all, for more than twenty years, no one had dared to do such things right under his nose, and now Qin Yuan and his group were the first.
