They buried the brother and everyone saluted.
Zhu Feng said to Wang Chao, "Wang Xiaochuan has been captured, and it's a large force of thousands. Rescuing him will be extremely difficult, especially since the situation is urgent. Huangfu Yan's troops have already begun to move, and we must immediately report the intelligence we've gathered. The situation at Wang Xiaochuan's location is critical, but none of us in the Thunder Strike Team are cowards. I believe he won't say anything!"
Everyone nodded in agreement. For the members of the Thunder Strike Team, the nation and the people's interests came first, followed by their own safety. In this urgent situation, it was not the time to sacrifice countless lives for one person's life. As everyone awaited Wang Chao's order to abandon Wang Xiaochuan and return with their forces, Wang Chao shook his head slowly but firmly.
"That's right; one person's life cannot compare to the lives of thousands in the Safe Zone," Wang Chao said. "If we delay sending back intelligence, it could lead to a disastrous defeat in this war, resulting in even more deaths. However, since I have brought you from Lei Father and Son's hands, I cannot abandon someone knowing that they are still alive!"
"Even if many will die because of this decision, I will still do it. The Thunder Strike Team will not abandon anyone!" Wang Chao declared resolutely. "From today on, this is the most important rule of the Thunder Strike Team! I want you all to remember this: no abandonment, no surrender. No matter what vital intelligence you have obtained, from now on, rescuing Wang Xiaochuan is our top priority!"
As he spoke, Wang Chao extended a finger and pointed at everyone while saying, "You, you, and you—remember this: if any one of you is captured in the future, do not worry or fear. Unless every member of the Thunder Strike Team is dead, we will find you at all costs—even if it means facing insurmountable odds or walking through fire together!"
"No abandonment, no surrender! The Thunder Strike Team will not abandon anyone!" Everyone shouted in unison. Tears welled up in the eyes of these tough men; with such a loyal and righteous leader, what more could a soldier ask for? For the first time, someone had taken up the baton from Lei Father and Son and earned the complete trust of these unruly Assault Team members.
"Zhu Feng, your task is to deliver these blueprints to Zhang Fusheng! You must be quick!" Wang Chao continued.
"I..." Zhu Feng began to speak, but Wang Chao interrupted him. "I know what you're going to say, but your mission is crucial for the safety of hundreds of thousands in the capital. I have already sacrificed much important intelligence for Wang Xiaochuan's sake, but this map and the location I previously told you are of utmost importance. You must bring them back to the capital!"
"Understood!" Zhu Feng accepted his orders without hesitation and quickly ran toward the capital.
"Good! The rest of you Brothers!" Wang Chao said. "Follow me!"
As he spoke, over a hundred men charged toward the direction where their fallen brother had gone. They traveled until dusk when they finally spotted smoke rising in the distance; it seemed someone was cooking food. Wang Chao waved his hand to gather a few Squad Leaders and said, "Check your watches!" Everyone looked at their watches to synchronize their time.
Wang Chao continued, "You three squads will launch a frontal attack in a moment. Remember, don't get caught up in a fight; try to draw their attention away. You six squads will initiate the attack from here. Wait until the first few squads have moved far enough away before you strike. At that point, regardless of whether the first group has drawn the enemy away, you must delay as long as possible and then retreat. Be careful not to let them surround you!"
"The first group's attack will commence in five minutes. Do you all understand? Get ready!" Wang Chao instructed.
"Understood!" everyone replied.
"Good. As for you few, follow me!" Wang Chao said, patting his squad members. He led the six of them quickly around to the back of the thicket. A few sentinels were hidden in the trees, but in front of the Thunder Strike Team, such camouflage could be easily seen through; otherwise, they wouldn't be known as the elite among elites.
After eliminating those sentinels, it was nearly time—about five minutes had passed.
At that moment, Wang Chao heard gunfire erupt from across the way; the three squads' Assault Team members had begun their attack. The sudden onslaught threw the Ganzhou Soldiers into disarray, and various sounds erupted. It took several minutes for the Ganzhou Soldiers to react and begin firing back, but by then, dozens of their comrades had already been shot down by the Assault Team.
"They're outnumbered!" a man who looked like a captain shouted. "Charge! Annihilate them!"
With that, he led his men forward—there were at least a hundred of them.
"Wait! Don't be reckless!" another voice called out. "It's clearly a feint; hold your ground! Our main mission is not to wipe out the enemy but to protect what we have here!" Upon hearing this, everyone abandoned their thoughts of pursuing further.
Sure enough, after the three squads retreated, another six squads began their assault on this camp from the side.
"It was indeed a feint!" the Commander said. "Quickly, reinforce this position." The Ganzhou Soldiers noticed that this time there were significantly more attackers than before. The Commander's assessment was spot on; had they pursued those earlier attackers, they would have been caught off guard by those here. If that happened and the general found out, they would truly be in deep trouble.
"These attackers are too strong; their marksmanship is precise. They are likely special forces sent from the capital; we need more reinforcements!" one captain shouted as he struggled against the Thunder Strike Team's powerful and accurate firepower. As he spoke, several hundred more soldiers arrived, forming a line to exchange fire with the Thunder Strike Team members. At that moment, the commander waved his hand and called over several Platoon Leaders, muttering, "Surround them!"
At that moment, the Thunder Strike Team could no longer withstand the overwhelming number of enemies and began to retreat step by step.
"This is our chance to act!" Wang Chao said. "Do you see those areas over there? No matter how fierce the fighting is, the people here are only on alert and not making any moves to support. It looks like there must be something important here, and it's very likely that Wang Xiaochuan is right there!"
