The rear was in hot pursuit, and the army in front blocked the road.
This hunting team is like prey caught in a hunter's trap, with nowhere to escape.
One family member gritted his teeth and suggested: "There is no other way. Let us rest on the spot and wait for them to surround us. Let's fight with them!"
Some family elders calmly analyzed: "I have already spread the letter Gu. At this distance, we only need to resist for a day and a night, and we can wait for the family's support!"
"So I suggest that we wander with them, fight and flee at the same time, and sacrifice a small number of people. We can always hold on until reinforcements arrive!"
"Nonsense! You think you can think of it, but the people who attacked us can't think of it?" Another family member yelled directly.
"Why else would they arrange people and horses in front? Just to surround us! Run? Where to run!"
The elders were a little discouraged for a while and had no way out. They couldn't see any hope of escaping.
"No, wait!" At this time, an old man who was looking at the map excitedly pointed to a place on the map.
"See, there is a valley in front of us on the left!"
"This valley is pocket-shaped, with a big belly and a small mouth. As long as we can escape into the valley and guard the entrance, it won't be so easy for them to invade!"
Several other elders quickly looked over and were overjoyed.
"Okay, good! That's a good idea!"
"Although this is a deserted valley with few resources and food, we don't need to hold on for too long. We only need one day and one night to wait for reinforcements from the family!"
"Okay, change direction immediately and head towards the valley!"
After the order from the family elders was given, the team immediately turned to the left.
"Explore the movements of the two teams before and after and see how they react!"
The investigating Gu Master quickly brought back the results.
"Report! Their team has accelerated again! Both teams are moving faster than us!"
"Okay!" Upon hearing the news, several family members were not surprised but overjoyed.
"They will speed up and chase us. They must have just discovered the valley and guessed our intentions."
"They want to stop us before we enter the valley. There's no way. Let's speed up! Give the order, leave behind the things that affect the speed, and move forward as fast as possible at all costs!"
The three teams on the left and right turned together and headed towards the valley hundreds of miles away, chasing each other at very fast speeds.
"Report! They are still faster than us! They are expected to catch up with us in another half hour!" The reconnaissance Gu Master reported at all times.
"Can we go any faster?"
"Sir, I can't do it anymore, this is already the fastest!"
"Although a lot of supplies have been thrown away, there are some injured people, so..."
The elders looked ugly, knowing that now it was time to make a decision.
"Abandon the wounded!" an elder suddenly shouted.
"Are you crazy!" The other elders quickly stopped him. To be honest, they had never thought this way, but they didn't want to say it themselves.
"Now is not the time for mother-in-law and mother-in-law. It is better to abandon a small number of wounded people than to be caught up and kill most of them!"
The old man gritted his teeth and said: "They should be proud of exchanging the lives of a few people for the lives of most people! If you don't want to say it, then let me be the villain. When the time comes, I will return to the family and I will be punished.
!”
Not to mention how the elders quarrel and make decisions.
At this time, the team was in a state of panic.
Most of the Gu Masters didn't know what happened. They only knew that they were hunting well, but suddenly they started to rush quickly. It didn't even feel like rushing, but rather like running for their lives!
In the crowd, four members of Zhou Ming's team were running wildly on wolves. Zhou Ming could still take a moment to look behind him. What was originally a black spot had now turned into a small black shadow of the pursuers.
"You are really right. This action against our family cannot be carried out by just one family."
"What does it take for us, a small group of first- and second-level Gu Masters, to deserve the enemy to send special personnel and set up an ambush to arrest them?"
"There is only one explanation, and that is that the three major families have joined forces! Only in this way will they have enough strength to make more arrangements. They will not even let go of our small hunting team, and they will definitely annihilate our Zhou family.
!”
Looking at the rear, the black shadow representing the pursuers gradually enlarged, which meant that the distance between them and ourselves was getting closer and closer...
"No, at this speed, we definitely can't outrun them!"
Zhou Ming turned around and said to the three of them in a deep voice: "Get ready, we will fight with them soon."
The three of them were shocked, their expressions were solemn, and they all felt their hearts heavy.
After running for more than half an hour, the two groups of pursuers in the rear had merged into one and were getting closer and closer to the hunting team. The Gu Masters in the rear could even see the gloomy smiles of their confident victory.
"No, we are about to be overtaken. Fight! Fight and retreat at the same time!" shouted an old man.
"Have all the wounded been gathered together?" the elder who had previously suggested abandoning the wounded asked at this time.
The subordinate Gu Master trembled and replied: "It's already concentrated."
"Okay, now leave the wounded behind!" The old man said with a cold face and an indifferent tone: "Whether they are willing or not, they will block the pursuit of the rear troops. Let's take advantage of this moment to distance ourselves and work together.
Escape into the valley!"
Although the other family elders had more or less unbearable expressions on their faces, none of them spoke up to object in the end, and they all acquiesced to the proposal.
At the rear of the team, Zhou Ming and others who were ready to fight were stunned to see a large number of people suddenly abandoned without warning.
All of the people in that group were injured, ranging from minor to serious. Some were unaware of what happened, chasing the large group anxiously or angrily; some seemed to have guessed that they had been abandoned, or
He slumped on the ground resigned to his fate, or turned his head and rushed towards the pursuing enemy from behind!
The first battle between the two parties broke out like this, and one of the vanguard troops turned out to be a group of wounded!
"How could they do this!" Zhou Ke murmured in disbelief.
"The gecko cut off its tail to survive, abandoning the pawn to save the car. The family members who made this decision are indeed very decisive and cold-blooded! It's just..."
Zhou Ming glanced at the completely unacceptable expressions of his teammates and sighed silently in his heart: "They have ignored an important issue, that is, those abandoned wounded people have relatives, friends, and teammates!
"
"I'm afraid the team is going to be in chaos..."
In the middle of the team, the elders who had just ordered to abandon the wounded quickly received news from their subordinates.
The team is in chaos!
Some of the teammates who were abandoned as wounded were completely unable to accept the decision of their elders. They left the team regardless of life and death and fought side by side with the teammates who had been abandoned, fighting against the pursuers from behind.
"You bastards! These bastards! They don't know the general situation!" The elder who had previously proposed to abandon the wounded was now furious, his face as cold as ice.
"Don't worry about them, the team continues to move forward! If they want to stay and fight, just let them stay. It can just delay the pursuers behind for a while!"
Several other elders looked at each other, complex expressions flashing in their eyes.
