When Ren Xiaosu pulled the trigger and killed the enemy, he did not slack off. Instead, he turned around and ran into the wilderness behind him. There was no rule stating that there could only be two Soong Clan snipers in this mountain range. There might even be three of them.
At that moment, the wound on the outside of his left thigh that had been grazed by the sniper bullet was still bleeding. He was limping as he walked.
It was not that he could not bear the pain, but after the muscle fibers were broken, he could not exert any strength in his left leg. No matter how strong his willpower was, he could not instantly reattach the muscle fibers.
Therefore, it was still the same saying. The most dangerous part of walking on a tightrope was always the last three steps. Only those who could walk these three steps well were worthy of walking on a tightrope.
This battle had consumed a lot of Ren Xiaosu's energy. Whether it was the ambush against the guerrilla company or the battle of wits with the sniper, Ren Xiaosu had never encountered such a situation before.
In fact, the other party was not a top sniper. In Yang Xiaojin's words, there were no top snipers in the entire Northwest. None of them could match her.
And Ren Xiaosu was not a master of strategy. He had only learned how to fight and how to hunt.
In the past, his targets were beasts that did not know how to use their brains. Now, he was hunting people who could.
Perhaps a real master hunter would scoff at what Ren Xiaosu had done. For example, should he have gambled with his life on the fourth shot? Should he have pursued the sniper so far? Should he have had the chance to kill the sniper long ago? Should he have pursued the sniper so far?
If Yang Xiaojin were there, she would probably think that the snipers were stupid and had poor marksmanship.
But no matter what, Ren Xiaosu was still improving and thinking.
The enemy was dead. That was the most important thing.
Ren Xiaosu hid in the bushes behind the ridge for a long time. He wanted to see if there was a third sniper. He also wanted to see how the Soong Clan's guerrillas would react.
After all, the guerrillas had already lost two snipers and two companies. It was impossible for them to let Ren Xiaosu and his men run wild here.
However, it was also possible that the guerrillas saw that they were not to be trifled with and decided to retreat to the Beiwan River. This was also possible, but it mainly depended on the other party's choice.
After waiting for a long time, Ren Xiaosu did not see any more guerrillas. It was as if they had given up on this mountain range.
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment before deciding to go back and rendezvous with the Razor Sharp Company first. He had been away for nearly two days, so he wondered how things were going at the rear.
However, at this moment, he suddenly saw a large number of troops surrounding him from the north and south. Ren Xiaosu was stunned. They did not give up on the mountains. Instead, they spent some time gathering their troops and sent a regiment into the mountains, intending to completely clear the wilderness!
They wanted to surround him!
This time, it was too big. They actually sent a whole regiment to fight a company? This was too much of a ruckus.
Ren Xiaosu felt a headache coming on. They even said they were going to cross from here to the Beiwan River to blow up the bridge. How was he supposed to get past them now?
He turned around and bent over to run back. He had to get out of the encirclement first.
As he ran, Ren Xiaosu was still wondering if he could plant some Brambles to kill some of the Soong Clan soldiers. There were too many of them, so it was unrealistic for them to get wiped out. However, if he could kill as many of them as he could, it was still better than nothing.
However, Ren Xiaosu realized that perhaps the snipers had already reported the possibility of the terrifying plants hiding in the bushes to the rear when they called for reinforcements.
As a result, the majority of the Soong Clan soldiers did not even bother to walk through the bushes. They only walked along the shady side of the hillside where the bushes did not grow and were extremely cautious.
Moreover, Ren Xiaosu even saw some of the Soong Clan soldiers carrying flamethrowers on their backs! With these things around, the Brambles would not be of much use at all. They could be burned to ashes with a single flamethrower.
Needless to say, plants also had their natural enemies.
When Ren Xiaosu saw this, he did not want to complicate things any further. He limped all the way to the end of the mountain range.
The Soong Clan's Beiwan River commander seemed to be really angry. It looked like he was bent on killing Ren Xiaosu.
As Ren Xiaosu ran away, he realized the Soong Clan soldiers seemed to always be able to pinpoint his exact location. Due to his injuries, he had planned to shake off the Soong Clan and regroup with the Razor Sharp Company. However, his plan had failed.
As he ran, he hid on the ridge and looked back. He was surprised to see dozens of Soong Clan soldiers leading huge hounds. The hounds were so big that they could drag a person along. Even the strong adult soldiers could not hold them back.
Ren Xiaosu wondered if these hounds could even be used as mounts.
The smell of blood. Ren Xiaosu suddenly realized the outside of his left thigh had been grazed by an enemy sniper's bullet and left a wound. Not only did it slow him down a lot, but it also left a smell behind.
Although he had applied black medicine, it still could not hide the smell of blood.
It looked like the Soong Clan soldiers had chased him all the way here.
However, Ren Xiaosu did not have a good way to deal with these hounds. The smell of blood on him could not be resolved by throwing away his bloodstained clothes. Unless he found a stream and followed it all the way back to where the Razor Sharp Company was.
But there was no such stream nearby.
The next afternoon, the Soong Clan soldiers released the hounds when they realized they could not catch up to Ren Xiaosu even after a long time. They allowed them to pursue him freely!
This made Ren Xiaosu's teeth hurt. Even though he was injured, he could still move faster than the Soong Clan soldiers. However, it was different for the hounds. They had also fucking mutated before!
The dozens of hounds did not have any excess fat on their bodies, so they could traverse the wilderness as though they were walking on flat ground.
Ren Xiaosu glanced at the shadow clone in the palace. The shadow clone had not fully materialized yet. In the future, he would really have to be careful not to let the shadow clone get shot in between its eyebrows. He would have to prepare a helmet for it.
Seeing the dozens of hounds getting closer and closer to him, Ren Xiaosu was ready to turn around and fight!
If not for the firepower of the Soong Clan behind him, he would not have to be afraid of these hounds!
Ren Xiaosu had to kill the hounds here. He could not lure the Soong Clan to the Razor Sharp Company.
But at this moment, the sound of machine gun fire came from the mountains on both sides of Crow Pass. Ren Xiaosu even heard someone shouting, "Ren Xiaosu, come over here quickly! We'll cover you!"
At some point, the Razor Sharp Company had set up a simple defensive line on both sides of Crow Pass. Fu Rao was holding a heavy machine gun in his arms. In just a few seconds, he had killed six or seven of the hounds behind Ren Xiaosu.
Ren Xiaosu heaved a sigh of relief. Was this what it felt like to have comrades? When you needed to rest, there would be someone standing behind you to protect you from the wind and rain.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and come over here. You've even released dozens of fucking hounds. Ren Xiaosu, how many people are chasing after you …" Zhang Xiaoman lamented, "Where have you been …"
