Nemesis is Coming - C135
The enemy’s ferocity immediately frightened the inexperienced soldiers on our side. Many of them had already started to flee.
I watched my men slowly pull back, and I said to them, You piece of trash! Everyone has two shoulders and one head, what are you afraid of? Come with me!
After I finished speaking, I raised my sword and charged forward. Only then did they muster the courage to return to their positions and engage the enemy.
The enemy and my side are engaged in battle, however our side can’t stop them. We have 6000 people, but we can’t take down these 2,000.
I raised my sword and stabbed towards a soldier who was charging towards me. He let out a blood-curdling scream after being stabbed by my sword.
But he gritted his teeth again, picked up the military knife, and stabbed me.
I jumped and dodged, but he cut my arm anyway.
I kicked him, and he fell to the ground.
But after a while, he recovered the pain. He covered the wound on his stomach and crawled back up. He looked at me with a hateful gaze and charged towards me once again.
His eyes frightened me a little, but that didn’t scare me away. I fought with him again. However, he still did that kind of fighting style that didn’t care for his life.
He did not defend himself at all, and kept waving his bayonet at me.
I grabbed one of his defenses and pinched his arm with the military knife.
He punched out yet again. He didn’t hit me yet, but he held me tightly and wanted to bite me.
I knee him in the stomach, then swing my sword at his neck. I cut his throat, and blood gushes out of it before he slowly falls.
But he was still clutching his throat as he muttered, “We are not the rebel army …” It’s your back… Betrayed the Luo City! We are… wronged
We are… He had been wronged! It was just one sentence that made me so distressed. He was lying on the ground. She’s already dead, but she’s still glaring at me with those unwilling eyes.
I can see that the enemies around us, each of them has the same way of fighting as the one I just stabbed to death, even if they had to die, they have to drag me down with them.
After a while, the people on our side couldn’t stand the pressure and started to retreat again. A lot of them had already started to run out of the position.
Han Xifei immediately raised her spear and shot a soldier who was trying to escape. She shouted: Those who escape will be killed without mercy.
All the soldiers were frightened by her, so they cowered and returned to the battlefield.
The battle was extremely intense. The enemy was as if they had gone mad, completely unafraid of death. Even if they were on the verge of death, they still had to stab their opponent.
I don’t know how many people I killed, but I do remember that every one of his men looked at me with resentment and anger before he died.
After half an hour of battle, we’ve already lost close to 2,000 people on our side, and the other side only have 1,000 left.
And how I wished there were reinforcements from the city.
They didn’t seem to be afraid at all. On the contrary, the soldiers on our side were becoming weaker and weaker.
At this moment, overwhelming shouts came from the city. Turning my head around, there were over eight thousand people rushing towards us.
I heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, reinforcements arrived. The leader of my eight thousand men stepped forward and shouted, “Rebels, surrender your weapons and don’t kill!”
But the enemies ignored him and continued to fight wildly against us.
With a wave of his hand, the seven thousand men immediately charged into the battlefield, and the battle immediately became one-sided.
There is no doubt that we have won.
Enemies on the battlefield continued to fall while screaming in agony. Before their deaths, every one of them would shout out, “We are not rebel soldiers!” We were wronged!
They were screaming so shrilly that my hair stood on end. Even I am starting to doubt if they were truly accused wrongly?
However, according to the intelligence reports, weren’t they the first to ambush the garrison in the city? That’s why they were attacked by the defenders in the city.
Furthermore, General Han Xifei had also said the same.
He had slapped himself so as not to be misled by these people. At this time, they couldn’t afford to be on the battlefield, so they became distracted.
I looked around and saw that there was no longer any suspense in the battle.
However, I discovered that a dozen of our enemies had already rushed out of our position and ran out of the city.
I immediately shouted, “Second Battalion, follow me.”
After shouting, I chased after the group of people. A group of dusty soldiers followed me out. There are about 200 more people left. I’m a little surprised that my team has already suffered half of the casualties.
I chased after them with all my might, but they weren’t slow either, and I couldn’t catch them for a while.
Many of the soldiers behind me raised their guns. They started shooting at the people who were running away, but they still couldn’t kill all of them.
My gun has been thrown onto the battlefield for a long time now, and I only have a long sword in my hand.
I saw that they wanted to give up. Those guys ran too fast. I wanted to give up. However, he noticed that the group of people didn’t scatter and escape. Moreover, all of them were protecting the two in the middle as they ran.
I keep having the feeling that the one in front of me is very likely to be the rebel leader, Lu Liangshan.
So I chased harder.
As I chased them, I realised that the soldiers behind me were getting slower and slower. Many of them had reached the limit of their stamina and could only stop in their tracks.
But I didn’t give up. I kept chasing.
As the group moved further and further away from us, they began to run up the mountain path, as if they wanted to use the dense forest on the mountain to get rid of us.
I followed closely behind. Looking back, he discovered that there were only 30 or so people left.
As for the group of people in front of us who were fleeing, they were continuously being shot at by my soldiers.
However, the number of gunfire on our side was becoming increasingly sparse. It was obvious that there were no bullets.
But I’m not very worried about that, because I see it. The men in front had no bullets. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have fired a single shot as we chased after them.
At this moment, one of the people in the middle of the group suddenly fell down. All of them stopped, and one of them hurried to help the fallen man.
Overjoyed, we chased after them and immediately surrounded the last seven people.
The group of people stopped fleeing and looked at us viciously, as if they wanted to fight to the death with us.
I looked at the man who was slowly being helped to his feet and was so shocked that I couldn’t speak. That person was actually He Xiaotong. However, she was wearing a military uniform and I didn’t recognize her when I ran over.
She looked my way, too, and her eyes were full of tears, and she was looking at me with a very sad look, very sad.
I never thought that these people would fight with their lives on the line just to bring He Xiaotong out of the city.
