After Crossing, I Marked the Empress - Chapter 205
The time came to 7:15 in the evening.
The sky light has not converged, but the dense forest area where the leaves are stacked has become a little dark.
In another 45 minutes, the entire Tengyun Mountains will be plunged into darkness.
And the ancient jungle at night is undoubtedly extremely dangerous for those who are not prepared to step in.
Shen Han considered taking the team to hide temporarily, but she quickly denied her idea.
Because she couldn’t determine the number of enemies and whether there would be detectors in the opponent’s hands that could be used to search.
Someone has to stay behind to interrupt the enemy’s movement.
Otherwise, one of them may not be able to escape.
The sudden sound of gunfire broke the eerie silence in the dark forest.
A Ying soldier who was at the forefront in a tactical formation was pierced by a bullet that flew from his temple.
Blood red bloomed on the other side of his head, bursting out a heart-pounding flower.
“There is an ambush! Everyone is looking for a place to hide!”
“The enemy is in our three o’clock direction, and the assault team is ready to shoot!”
The commander of the Yingguo operation began to give orders in his native language.
After his voice fell, the two team members were already lying on the ground to suppress the fire.
Shen Han hid behind a big tree that the three of them couldn’t hold together. The gun in her hand was confiscated from the enemy before.
There were still a lot of bullets left, but she had lost the chance to aim carefully.
The enemy’s firepower was too intense, and bullets poured down like a torrential rain, trapping her in place and unable to move.
Although he couldn’t aim, Shen Han didn’t stop shooting because of this.
She adjusted the angle of the muzzle and pulled the trigger frequently to gain more evacuation time for her companions.
Even if the time that can be won is not long, Shen Han has calculated that it should be enough.
The sky was getting darker.
The assault rifle kept spewing out tongues of flame, like clusters of burning fireworks.
Just as Shen Han was raising his gun to shoot again, the muzzle just came out a little when he was hit by a shrapnel the size of a fingernail.
Her palm shook, and the gun flew out of her hand.
Fortunately, it wasn’t a direct bullet that hit her muzzle, otherwise, her phalanx would have been shaken to the point of breaking.
Shen Han shrunk his body under the thick tree to minimize the chance of being scratched.
At this moment, her mind is running fast, thinking about the words that she can use to negotiate with the enemy later.
Influenced by Gu Junwan, she has a very clear understanding of Takeda Jianye.
In the eyes of that person, interests are the first, and both grudges and emotions have to be placed in the back row.
This kind of enemy with absolute rationality is very difficult to deal with.
But now, this feature of Takeda Jianye can be fully utilized by Shen Han, thus winning herself a bargaining chip to survive.
After a while, the dense gunfire finally gradually stopped.
Through the previous contest, the Yingguo tactical team also discovered a problem: there is only one opponent hidden not far away!
“Bastard, go to hell!”
The captain of the Yingguo operation scolded, and then released a grenade hanging on the tactical vest.
Just when he was about to open the safety bolt, Takeda Jianye’s voice came from the side: “Wait, capture the enemy alive, I want to interrogate!”
They have always communicated in the Ying national language, which is almost identical to the island language that Shen Han had learned before crossing.
So, after hearing Takeda Jianye’s voice, she threw away her weapon and walked out on her own initiative.
“Li Jianye, you really have a great fate. You can still be so tossed when you are old.”
“But this time you lost. The lady has already seen your plan. What you lost will never be recovered.”
When leaving the previous battle area, Shen Han moved the other lots in the black box into his carry-on bag.
At that time, her idea was that the Ying people would not have any chance to take away the contents of the box, but now it has become a card in her hand by mistake.
Shen Han used the federation language, and used the name of the former federation to address the enemy leader.
Coupled with the psychological tactics hidden in her words, she didn’t think that the opponent in front of her would be calm.
The truth is as she expected.
When Takeda Jianye heard the word ‘woman’, his slightly cloudy pupils suddenly shrank obviously.
In his lifetime, he has only been defeated by one person, and that is Gu Junwan.
Right now, he carefully looked at the woman who had been driven to the front by the soldiers with guns, and then asked curiously in the proficient Federal language, “Is that you?”
Although Shen Han modified her facial features with makeup, she did not make any adjustments to her voice and figure.
Therefore, Takeda Jianye quickly recognized her.
Gu Junwan’s captain of the guard appeared here, which greatly surprised him.
But he showed the usual calmness on his face: “Thank you, my life has always been good, but you, do you think you can return to the Free Federation alive after falling into my hands?”
When he heard the other party say these words, Shen Han not only had no fear in his heart, but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Sometimes, to judge the opponent’s intentions, you can’t just listen to what he said, the key is to look at what he did.
If Takeda Jianye had the intention to kill, he wouldn’t talk a lot here at all.
He didn’t dare to continue to chase after him, because he was worried that the Empress of the Federation would have a back-up attack waiting for him.
After all, the other’s personal guards have chased into this mountain range.
Based on what he knew about Gu Junwan, it was impossible for the strong-armed lady to have no other arrangements.
Fortunately, this is the territory of the ancient country of Solan. If it was in the Free Federation, Takeda Jianye guessed that he had already been surrounded and suppressed.
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Before he knew it, he broke out in a cold sweat.
“Get out of here quickly and withdraw to the overseas camp as originally planned!”
After hearing such an order, the five Ying soldiers immediately looked at each other.
After hesitating, the action leader immediately said, “Sir Takeda, but we haven’t recovered those lots yet. We have determined that there are only four people left on the other side.”
“I think we should continue to pursue. If we miss the opportunity, we will not be able to explain to Chief Beiyuan when we go back.”
Takeda Jianye will naturally not explain too much.
He turned his head slightly and said calmly to the action captain: “Sergeant Takahashi, your duty is to obey orders, not to question the decision of the commander.”
Hearing this, the action captain narrowed his eyebrows, raised his arm and gave a military salute, and then ordered to follow the medicine path immediately, making sure to leave the ancient country of Solan before the next dawn.
The soldiers of the Ying Kingdom searched for the items that Shen Han was carrying, even the slender necklace she hid under her collar was not spared.
Her wrists were in shackles, and a man with a gun was on guard behind her to prevent any chance of her escaping.
The soldiers did not vent their anger by beating the captives, as that would greatly slow down the journey.
If you accidentally beat her to the point where she loses her ability to move on her own, the soldiers will have to take turns leading each other.
No one wants to burden themselves.
Therefore, in the next night walk, everything is still in peace.
…
The sky has completely darkened.
The jungle at night no longer has the greenness of the day, and wherever the eyes can see, it is a hazy fantasy.
The moonlight shone through the trees, imprinting mottled patches on the grass on the ground.
The flying fireflies are like the stars in the night sky, and occasionally, there is a flash of light, and I don’t know which nocturnal animal is disturbed.
Fang Yue and Hu Zhen took turns carrying Sun Yu on their backs, exchanging every 15 minutes.
This not only maintains the overall speed of travel, but also allows the two alhas to take a breather while lightening the load.
They didn’t stop for a moment, because the chance that they could get out of the body at this moment was bought by Shen Han with his own safety.
Shortly after they separated from their captain, they heard gunshots coming from the dense forest behind.
They don’t know if their captain can protect themselves as she said, all they can do is trust each other.
Tears poured all the way, and they never looked back.
Until nearly 10 o’clock in the night, Fang Yue and the three finally saw a large number of flashlights flickering in front of them.
The dots of light beams intertwined and converged into a band of hope.
Fang Yue knew that this was the reinforcement of the female monarch.
She slowly put the young man on her back to the ground as if she had lost her strength, but she sobbed softly.
The light of their hope has come, but their Captain Shen doesn’t know which darkness he is in now.
In the search and rescue team, there are Yanlin and her alha who came here after hearing the news.
When she found out that Sun Yu was inexplicably missing and could not be contacted, the mother guessed her son’s whereabouts with hindsight.
She immediately contacted her husband and followed the female queen’s team to the Tengyun Mountains.
Compared with a few hours ago, Sun Yu at this time seems to have grown a lot in an instant.
He first handed the carry-on bag that Shen Han gave him to the leader of the Federation, and then limped to his parents and choked out: “Mom, Dad, I’m sorry, I made you worry.”
Through the satellite phone that was added later, Fang Yue got in touch with the queen who was far away in the border city of the Jiying Empire.
She reported everything on her side after entering the jungle to the other side, including the deaths of her comrades, and Shen Han’s decision to intercept the enemy alone.
After listening to all the information reports, Gu Junwan only felt that the world was spinning for a while.
If it wasn’t for Xu Zhao’s help in time, she would have fallen to the ground.
She should have known earlier that the price to be paid for capturing the dragon horn ginseng would be like this, and she would never agree to Shen Han’s request to lead the team to pursue it.
It’s a pity that there is no such thing as “knowing” in the world.
The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and no one can accurately predict what will happen in the next moment.
While urging Ma Haoyu to bring the doctor over quickly, Xu Zhao comforted his daughter-in-law in a low voice: “Your Majesty, don’t worry, Shen Han will be fine.”
When he said these words, Xu Zhao actually didn’t have much confidence in his heart.
But she had to show a very determined attitude, because she was afraid that her daughter-in-law would not be able to hold on.
Gu Junwan’s face was pale, but her thoughts were unprecedentedly clear.
She sat in the chair for a moment, and then began to order.
“Arrange a special person and a special plane to send Longjiao Lingshen to the Peace Palace immediately.”
“Contact the consul of Jiying Empire, some things need his immediate cooperation.”
“Let the **** team and all the special forces follow me to go to the place where Beiyuancheng is under house arrest. He must have a way to get in touch with Takeda Jianye. Using him as a breakthrough can protect Shen Han most efficiently!”
