Chapter 128 Who are you calling mentally ill?
Li Dongshui was somewhat worried: "What if the enemy has night vision goggles or thermal imaging capabilities?"

Xu Ge looked at him: "Does our company have night vision devices or thermal imaging equipment?"

"Yes, I have!"

"Then why don't we bring it?"

"Why would we bring that thing when we patrol during the day?"

"That's settled then. The enemy also comes out during the day. Do you think they'll bring it?" Xu Ge countered.

Li Dongshui thought for a moment, then continued, "What if there's more than one enemy? What if others sneak in?"

"It's even better if you come over, let's take them down together!" Xu Ge said, holding the last grenade in his hand.

With his current level of perception, he can detect any movement within a radius of tens of meters in advance, so he has no worries about being ambushed.

Li Dongshui still seemed nervous, constantly trying to find topics to talk about, and then looked at Xu Can: "Why did you fly across the border?"

Xu Can, who had been staring at Xu Ge, replied, "I was trying to create a disturbance here to draw in the border troops, but I didn't expect the Skypoison missiles to react so quickly!"

"You're really brave, aren't you afraid of getting blown up?"

Li Dongshui sincerely admired this behavior, especially since the other party was a female soldier.

"I was prepared to jump from the plane in advance, and I always carried a parachute with me!"

"Didn't your unit send anyone to meet you? Were you just sent to act alone?"

"The Sirius men were waiting for me elsewhere. Didn't I tell you the enemy's missiles were too fast? I didn't even have time to get to the designated position."

Li Dongshui gave a thumbs up: "You're amazing! If you jumped any slower, you'd be dead!"

Xu Can laughed: "My skydiving skills are just as good as my flying skills!"

"So impressive, yet you still managed to fall and get yourself all bruised?" Xu Ge said, looking at Xu Can's tattered helmet.

"It's because this plane's performance is too poor. It's an outdated machine. If we had a different one, I'm not even sure if the missiles would hit me!" Xu Can said seriously.

Xu Ge laughed: "Are you trying to fool us because we're new recruits? A helicopter dodging missiles? You think this is a movie?"

"Why would I lie to you? Let me tell you, my sixth sense is amazing. Many times, I can sense danger before the radar even registers it... Ah, I remember now!"

Xu Can suddenly pointed at Xu Ge, "You're the kid who was with Brother Lei and Brother Lian in Qiangtang that night. You had blood on your face back then, and I even gave you tissues, do you remember?"

Xu Ge: ...

Li Dongshui paused for a moment, then looked at Xu Can: "Why did you call him a kid?"

Xu Can: "You're a kid too, none of you are as old as me."

Li Dongshui: ? ? ?

"Don't talk to her, she seems to have hit her head!" Xu Ge whispered.

Li Dongshui suddenly realized what was happening and fell silent.

The area behind the riverbank fell silent for a moment, with only the night wind howling.

. . .

. . .

A few minutes later, Xu Ge glanced at the dark sky and said, "That's about enough. You two don't move yet. Let me check the situation."

After saying that, Xu Ge suddenly stood up and stared straight at the person opposite him.

Li Dongshui and Xu Can were both startled: "What are you doing? Are you out of your mind?!"

Xu Ge widened his field of vision to the maximum, trying to capture any unusual movements on the opposite mountain, including sparks.

After waiting for a while, nothing happened.

Li Dongshui was overjoyed: "No one fired a shot, have the enemy left?"

Xu Ge didn't answer, and moved left and right along the riverbank twice more, but there was still no response from the other side.

"They may not have left; it's possible the enemy can no longer see this place."

Xu Ge looked at the hillside opposite him, and at that moment, the scene in his eyes was a clear outline.

However, because of the great distance, if the gunman lay still in one spot, he wouldn't be able to find the other party.

"Xu Can, how many bullets do you have left in your pistol?" Xu Ge suddenly asked.

"There are still five or six rounds left, what's wrong?"

"Crawl ten meters to the left, don't show your head, and fire a few shots with your hands outstretched."

Xu Can was taken aback: "Why?"

Xu Ge: "I need to find the enemy's location."

"Oh!"

Xu Can started crawling to the side, and after reaching the spot, he turned around and asked, "Is this okay?"

"Row."

When to fire?

"Open it now."

How many shots?

Xu Ge, who was intently staring at the person opposite him, was getting a little impatient: "Whatever!"

"Why are you being so fierce!"

Xu Can muttered something to himself, then raised his hand and fired three shots at the other side.

Xu Ge then spread out all his peripheral vision, covering the entire opposite hillside.

The next second after the gunshot rang out, Xu Ge's pupils suddenly contracted and automatically focused on a square stone next to his upper right.

Just now, a round, blurry shadow suddenly moved, and it looked like a human head turning its head.

Such a distance would be impossible for an ordinary person to notice, but Xu Ge's eyes are now extremely adept at capturing moving objects, and he instantly shifted his gaze to them.

Previously, he couldn't find a small target on the entire mountain, but now that he had pinpointed the location, Xu Ge looked with all his might and finally saw a human-shaped silhouette behind the rock!
It seems the other party wasn't a professional sniper. If it were someone of Lao Lian's skill level in that position, they certainly wouldn't have moved their body so much after hearing the gunshot.

"Ah Shui, come here, it's your turn!"

Xu Ge told Li Dongshui to stand behind a dead tree, pointed to the topmost branch, and said, "Look at the end of that branch and tell me what you see."

Xu Ge's vision at night is different from that of a normal person, so he needs to know what the opposite hillside looks like in Li Dongshui's eyes before he can give him instructions.

Li Dongshui immediately sat on the ground, bent his left leg, and used his left elbow to support the gun against his left knee to stabilize it. Then he looked at the scope.

"I saw something that was slightly darker in color."

What shape?

"It's rectangular, but the left side is a bit pointed."

Xu Ge knew that Li Dongshui had seen the square stone, and immediately said, "On the left, at the top of the pointed one, there's a small round thing, do you see it?"

Li Dongshui smirked as he looked through the scope for a while and said, "Hmm, I see it!"

"Just hit them there!"

"Hmm!" A few seconds later, Li Dongshui's body jolted violently.

boom!
The gunshots carried far into the night, their echoes faintly reverberating in the distant valleys.

Xu Ge stared at the enemy opposite him, and as soon as he saw the enemy fall, he immediately said, "Ah Shui is awesome! He hit the target with one shot! Let's go!"

"So accurate?" Xu Can, who had just climbed back, glanced at Li Dongshui in surprise, but then looked at Xu Ge with even more astonishment: "You can see at night?"

"I guessed!"

Xu Ge grabbed Li Dongshui, who was still a little dazed, and shouted, "Quick, quick, run!"

The three of them immediately rushed out of the river embankment and ran towards the canyon.

As we passed the snow-covered clearing, there were no more gunshots coming from the other side.

"Turn right and go uphill!"

When they arrived at the canyon entrance, Xu Ge did not choose to go in, but instead turned to the right, which was the retreat direction he had previously agreed upon with Guo Yuanshuai.

"Xu Ge, aren't we going back the way we came?" Li Dongshui asked, panting.

"It's not safe. So much time has passed; someone might already be coming from that direction. Let's change direction!"

"Do the squad leader and the others know about this?"

"I know, we'll see them once we cross this mountain!"

The three began to make their way up the mountain in the dark. Xu Ge took Li Dongshui's gun and walked in front, while reporting his position to Guo Yuanshuai via walkie-talkie.

"I can't see. Did you two bring flashlights?" Xu Can, who was walking in the middle, suddenly said.

Li Dongshui instinctively reached for his flashlight: "I brought one..."

"Don't turn on the flashlight, we're not completely safe yet!"

Xu Ge turned around, walked up to Xu Can, and took off the helmet that was pressing down on her eyebrows: "Is it better now?"

"Yes, that's true!"

"Let's keep going." Xu Ge turned around. "You two follow me. I'll tell you in advance where it's difficult, so hurry up!"

"it is good!"

The three continued their arduous climb through the snow-covered mountains.

. . .

. . .

Buzz!
After crossing the ridgeline, Xu Ge heard the sound of an engine behind the cliff ahead. He felt relieved; he was finally back!
"Squad leader, we've arrived!" Xu Ge pressed the walkie-talkie.

A somewhat familiar voice came through the walkie-talkie: "Old Guo is resting in the car. This is Gao Wen, the deputy chief of staff of the regiment. Xu Ge, do you remember me?"

"Hello Chief of Staff, the three of us have arrived at the designated location!" Xu Ge quickly replied.

Earlier on the way, Guo Yuanshuai had already told him the rendezvous point, which was below this cliff ahead. Once they reached this point, they would be within China's control and would be considered safe.

"Wait a moment, the rope will be lowered shortly!"

"understand!"

Xu Ge gestured to Li Dongshui to turn on the flashlight, and the three of them went down to the bottom of the cliff.

Shortly after, three ropes were lowered from above, and at the same time, a large amount of light shone down.

Xu Ge first helped Li Dongshui fasten the lock, waved to signal, and after Li Dongshui was pulled up, he came over to help Xu Can tie the rope.

"Thank you, Xu Ge. I wouldn't be back today without you guys!" Xu Can said, looking at Xu Ge.

Along the way, she had already learned the names of the two new recruits.

"Can you do me a favor?" Xu Ge suddenly asked.

"What kind of help do you need? Just tell me!" Xu Can immediately replied that it was no problem. "As long as it's within my power, I won't hesitate!"

"When we get back, can you say that you killed the enemy with the spear?" Xu Ge whispered. "This is something only the two of us know, and I'll tell the leaders that too."

Xu Can was taken aback: "Why? Without you, I wouldn't have had a chance to fire a shot at all. Besides, this is a meritorious deed for you!"

"I made a mistake. I should have checked more carefully to see if the person was really dead. My squad leader would have scolded me if he found out!" Xu Ge made up an excuse.

Everyone would have to write an incident report after returning home, and Xu Ge didn't want to expose his abnormality.

Once the fact that someone can bite a spear that an enemy is thrusting at with all their might becomes public, who knows what the consequences will be?
"Really?" Xu Can's eyes were full of doubt and... confusion.

Xu Ge knew the other person's brain had been damaged, so he nodded seriously and said, "Of course it's true. Also, if others knew that I had let the enemy stab me in the mouth, my comrades would laugh at me for a long time!"

"That's indeed quite embarrassing." Xu Can nodded. "No problem, I promise I won't tell!"

"Thanks! Let's go up quickly!"

"it is good!"

The two were lowered to the cliff by ropes, and people immediately came to meet them. The one in front was Deputy Chief of Staff Gao Wen, followed closely by Liu Guoping and Luo Shan.

Several all-terrain vehicles and cranes were parked on the open space, along with a high-powered generator, and the lights illuminated the entire area as if it were daytime.

"How are you two? Are you alright?" Gao Wen asked with concern.

"Chief of Staff, I'm fine!" Xu Ge pointed to Xu Can, who was bending down to unlock a buckle. "But this pilot... she seems to have suffered a head injury!"

"Xu Ge! Who are you calling mentally ill?"

Xu Can glared at Xu Ge, annoyed. "I was just a little dizzy at first, but I'm completely fine now!"

"XCMG! XCMG, are you alright?!" Two people dressed in dark combat uniforms rushed over.

Xu Ge recognized the two men; they were Yuan Chuan and Wang Long from the Sirius Commando Team, with whom he had fought before.

The two men were also somewhat surprised to see Xu Ge. Yuan Chuan asked, "Did you rescue our XCMG?"

Xu Ge: "It's not just me, it's everyone in the Ninth Platoon of the Sixth Company of our First Regiment!"

"Salute!" Wang Long suddenly shouted with a serious expression.

clap clap!

The two men stood at attention and simultaneously gave Xu Ge a gun salute.

Gao Wen watched from the side with a look of satisfaction and appreciation.

Xu Ge returned the greeting and then said, "Your engineer Xu has a head injury, quickly take her to rest..."

"I already told you I'm fine! You're the one who's out of your mind!"

Xu Can was displeased and refused Yuan Chuan and Wang Long's help, walking quickly outside as if to show that he was in perfect condition.

A power line connecting to the generator lay across the ground, and someone nearby shouted, "Don't step on the power line!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Can squatted down, picked up the wire, and held it above his head. After going under it, he turned back to Xu Ge and said, "I'll hold it for you guys. Come on over!"

Xu Ge: ? ? ?
Liu Guoping and Luo Shan looked at each other in bewilderment.

Yuan Chuan and Wang Long gaped open, completely stunned.

Gao Wen frowned: "They need to be taken to the hospital immediately!"
