Chapter 800 - Blood and Fire, the Ultimate
historical
Fortunately, the Grand Bunker was finally taken down when they were only fifty meters apart.
After firing its last rocket and bullets, the vehicle gradually stopped and exposed the almost undamaged Spike behind it.
The Spike’s exterior armor was undoubtedly thicker and more potent than the previous two vehicles.
However, the sound of bullets raining down as if the rainstorm had passed became increasingly sparse, like a drizzle.
The Spike was only fifty meters away. It did not give the opponent time to breathe.
Immediately, the driver stepped on the accelerator, and the colossal vehicle charged forward with a rumble toward the frontline full of potholes.
The three-hundred-meter defense tactic was officially over.
The Spike had completely occupied a tactical position, but the soldiers had exhausted all their bullets and explosive packs. What was left with them was enthusiasm!
“Captain Feng, what do we do?”
The soldiers within the trenches swallowed their saliva as they observed the stationary Spike.
After a long battle, the enemy was left with the Spike.
However, it was precisely this last survivor that left everyone at a loss. They did not know how they would split open the vehicle’s exterior with the steel knife in their hands that even bullets and explosive packs could not penetrate.
“Brothers! Our mission has been completed!
“The shelter leader has given us two options.”
Feng Tianmin slowly got up and placed his hand over his chest as he glanced at Su Mo, standing in the center of the camp.
“Number one, we give up our campsite, and everyone can evacuate through the retreat route we’ve previously opened up.
“Or..”
Feng Tianmin paused and glanced around at all the soldiers.
“We fight alongside our shelter leader to the very last moment!”
In the end, Feng Tianmin disobeyed Su Mo’s orders and asked the soldiers a seemingly redundant question.
Abandoning the main commander and evacuating before the real battle began was a course of action that would be considered only if complete defeat was guaranteed.
Although their current situation was that all the soldiers’ ammunition was exhausted, they had successfully increased their advantage by several folds.
The only thing left was to defeat Sun Bahu, who had transformed himself into a machine, for them to declare this battle a success.
There was no reason for them to retreat!
Moreover, these soldiers were selected from nearly 400 soldiers to serve as part of Su Mo’s expedition team. Thus, their spirits had long been unified as a team.
In the face of life and death, they had unanimously decided..
To fight beside Su Mo till the last drop of their blood!
“To hell with evacuating! What are we going to do? Rush back to the territory for more ammunition?” Someone in the corner shouted, and a series of agreeing voices echoed throughout the trenches.
“That’s right! Can Sun Bahu fight all of us alone? We’ll eventually tire him out with our numbers!”
“I’ve never learned the meaning of retreat even up until university! No such word exists to me! Don’t even dare mention the word abandon to me! I’m not very smart and will never grasp the meaning of such words!”
“The shelter leader is family to me! I’ll never abandon my family!”
“What? Did you just say he is your family only?!”
“..”
The soldiers’ morale was high. They immediately dropped their empty rifles and took out their steel knives that had never been used in actual combat before.
A few conservative soldiers also managed to save a few precious bullets. Instantly, they kept their rifles on their waists to take Sun Bahu by surprise when he let his guard down.
However..
“That’s enough, Tianmin. Lead them to retreat now!
“You’ve all completed your tasks well. I’m very pleased.”
The Spike’s door had not opened for a long time. Thus, Su Mo approached the soldiers with a spear.
Although the two had not met face to face yet, the tense battle between them had started to confront one another invisibly.
Knowing the terrifying physical fitness of interstellar humans, Su Mo knew that the soldier’s charging in the frontline and trying to exhaust him would be useless.
The opponent had swift movement speed and inexhaustible stamina, which was different from the soldiers.
Against such a monster, he could only be defeated with guns, artillery, and bombs from a distance or fight for life and death with an opponent on par with his strength.
“Shelter leader, we..”
“It’s an order. Leave quickly. There is no room for negotiation!”
Seeing Feng Tianmin’s expression as if he wanted to speak, Su Mo glared at him and an unconcealable murderous aura exuded from him.
Feng Tianmin was intimidated by the pressuring aura and felt his heartbeat skip.
He bit down his lips and thought to himself for two to three seconds. Then, he waved his hands and shouted, “Withdraw! We’re going with plan B! We will regroup in a day!”
Whoosh!
The army was not a child’s play nor a drama where people had time to think about brotherhood and be affected by emotions like on television.
After the decision was made, the soldiers did not refute it, seeing Feng Tianmin take the lead to retreat.
The entire camp was empty in an instant, leaving only Su Mo standing in the center with his head held high, staring straight ahead at his opponent.
Sun Bahu, who was sitting inside the Spike, turned a blind eye to the soldiers’ evacuation.
A rumble of thunder resonated in the sky, and Sun Bahu finally opened the car door. Half of his body, which radiated with a metallic dark cyan sheen, stepped out of the car.
This was the first time a different path occurred from the talisman’s deduced future.
The soldiers’ fates had also completely changed.
