I Told You To Manage The Reserve Unit For Me Instead Of Turning It Into A Special Troop-Chapter 970 - 573: The Older, the Wittier! (Two Chapters Combined)
Chapter 970: Chapter 573: The Older, the Wittier! (Two Chapters Combined)
He really couldn’t afford to lose anymore.
Qin Yuan silently acknowledged this in his heart.
He composed himself, checked the time, and stood up.
He shouted loudly to the soldiers around him:
“Time’s up! Let’s move out! We cannot stop along the way! We must return to the 2nd platoon of the logistics company as quickly as possible!”
Qin Yuan gave the order loudly.
“Yes!”
The soldiers below responded in unison.
Though there were not many, just over thirty, their voices were exceptionally loud.
They had rested well and were full of energy, which made their voices even louder.
Then, the whole army officially proceeded in the direction He Chenguang had indicated.
Under Qin Yuan’s command, they moved quickly, and in no time, they had covered over a kilometer.
By this time, it was noon. The sun was scorching hot, making the atmosphere and the environment unbearably hot.
“Damn! With such hot weather, we are really having a tough time!”
“There’s still a long way to go back, and it won’t be easy!”
“I wonder if we have enough water! We’ll have to save it!”
The soldiers all looked distressed
Qin Yuan noticed all of this.
He hadn’t considered this factor—during midday, the hot weather also had a significant impact on the army’s movement.
It could even directly affect their progress.
But there was no good solution. Their water supply was extremely precious and limited. In this situation, they could only conserve resources and manage them well on the road.
The area nearby consisted of mountains and stone walls, with few rivers or water sources, which was an unavoidable issue.
Fortunately, the journey wasn’t too far, about three kilometers. Even if they were not in the best condition, it would only take about ten minutes to reach their destination.
Indeed, that was the case. They encountered no enemies along the way; the only obstacles were from natural external factors.
The hot weather and scarce water resources made the travel take about twice as long as usual.
By the time they arrived at the new camp of the 2nd platoon of the logistics company, nearly twenty minutes had passed.
He Chenguang, seeing Qin Yuan and Green Snake approaching from a distance, shouted happily:
“Qin Yuan! Green Snake!”
Qin Yuan and Green Snake saw him and also smiled and waved back.
“Well, we’re back,”
Qin Yuan said, smiling.

“We weren’t worried at all!”
Weiwei also came out upon hearing the news.
“I almost thought I’d never see you again!”
She said excitedly.
Subsequently, the old man also came out.
“You really didn’t worry us,”
The old man said calmly.
“Worried?”
Qin Yuan was puzzled.
“Didn’t we agree that you would wait for us to come back?”
“What happened?”
Qin Yuan then realized that something had happened.
“The Daybreak Organization attacked us again while you were out,”
He Chenguang continued.
Qin Yuan’s brow furrowed.
“What? How did that happen? Didn’t we already drive them off?”
Green Snake exclaimed in surprise.
“I don’t know the details, but this time their attack was not as fierce, just some probing attacks,”
He Chenguang said, somewhat puzzled.
“That’s odd; we clearly drove them off, why are there still remnants”
“Not to mention that their camp is far away from here, and what’s most unbelievable is that they still knew our location!”
At this point, He Chenguang’s face immediately showed a look of surprise.
“There must be a reason why they did such a thing,”
Qin Yuan said thoughtfully.
“Anyway, we have no way to discuss it here,”
“Let’s go back and organize the troops, and discuss our next moves,”
“Alright.”
Subsequently, several people returned to the camp.
“How do we decide on our next actions this time?”
Back in the camp, He Chenguang couldn’t wait to discuss this matter with Qin Yuan.
“Do you think they are now targeting us?”
Qin Yuan asked.
“It’s definite; no matter where we escape to, we can’t get away, I believe,”
He Chenguang admitted straightforwardly.
“There’s no way around it; we can’t escape their pursuit now,”
Qin Yuan said calmly.
“With many wounded and the hot weather, a long journey would be quite disadvantageous,”
Qin Yuan stated the reality.
“In my opinion, we can only confront them head-on now. Both sides are at the end of their rope; it’s just a matter of whose knife is sharper,”
He Chenguang also pondered deeply.
“You’re right; we have no way out now,”
“But I’m not ready to tell them about this yet,”
Qin Yuan admitted openly.
“After all, the old man is old, and Weiwei is a young inexperienced person. The soldiers of the 2nd platoon of the logistics company, though, have no problems; they will unleash their last strength when facing dire situations,”
“Just tell them,”
He Chenguang replied directly.
“They will stand by your side no matter what; we will definitely support you,”
“I know,”
Qin Yuan said helplessly.
“I know your support,”
“But support aside, I promised them to ensure their safety,”
“I don’t want to drag them into this battle,”
Qin Yuan expressed his worries.
“Since they are already in the eye of the storm, how could they possibly stay uninvolved?”
