Chapter 28 - Cornered

As the map in Rayen's hand unfolded, Davis and Powell stopped talking.

They found themselves too far away!

Not to mention Bay City in the east, even the southern part of their garrison was very far away!

If they wanted to leave, it would take at least 20 days!

They would also have to pass through at least a desert and a forest filled with wild beasts.

What was more terrifying was that they did not even discover a single vehicle along the way!

If they walked, the time would be even longer!

If they really waited until they reached the southern region of Youcheng Town, the battlefield would probably be over!

At that time, it was still uncertain who would be the first to return to the other side!

It was even more impossible to forcefully cross over!

The desert was extremely short of water, and the three of them could not support such a long journey.

Even if they were lucky, there was still a mountain forest waiting for them!

After all, the beasts inside did not know how to negotiate!

Return to the fourth battalion? That was even more impossible!

After all, going to any high ground to stop the enemy meant a higher probability of death for them.

Thinking of this, despair appeared on the faces of Davis and Powell.

Because no matter what they planned, they could only stay in the area obediently and find their own troops. Otherwise, apart from the suspicion of desertion, the more troublesome thing would be if they ran into a lone Atlantean, it was better to meet up as soon as possible. After all, there were many people.

At this moment, Rayen's expression was also very uncomfortable. This was because he wanted to leave the army more than anyone else.

After all, he had created such an excellent mecha and yet he had not received the rewards he deserved. This made him feel rather uneasy.

Moreover, he rejected war from the bottom of his heart.

This was not a joke.

Even though he was a merchant who liked guns and sold death.

He had always hated the idea of war in his heart.

After all, his father had died in the war.

However, the irony was that he had not only joined the army, but he was also unable to leave the army, because leaving would mean certain death for him.

"Damn it! Can't the God of War give me the ability to build cars or airplanes?" He kept touching the wreckage of the war chariot, but he could not get any useful information.

Helplessly, the three of them could only sit on the ground and cover their faces, not knowing what to do next.

In the end, Davis broke the silence. This fatty's face once again brimmed with a smile. After passing a cigarette to the two of them, he even helped them light it up, he said with a smile, "It doesn't matter! There's nothing bad about staying in the army. As long as we find Battalion Commander Li, our safety will be guaranteed!

"The effects of the mecha this time are so good. We might even be able to raise our military ranks!

"Guys, buck up. The girls in the southern region are still waiting for us to return alive to sleep with them!"

Davis was always like this. He could remain optimistic at any moment that seemed to be a moment of despair.

This was also what Rayen liked about this guy.

After exhaling a mouthful of smoke, Rayen revealed a bitter smile and said, "Alright, let's do some research. Where can we find our own commander?"

As he said that, the three people with cigarettes in their mouths laid on the map and looked around.

Rayen pointed to a dense forest a few kilometers away and said, "Let's stop here first. It's safer with the cover of the dense forest. Moreover, this is the direction that Steven and the others were heading to."

Davis said, "Alright, I'll listen to you. I saw a small tent just now. It should be useful."

"I'll go wherever brother Rayen goes." Powell was not a person who did not have his own opinions. It was just that he was more willing to listen to Rayen's words. This had a lot to do with the conversation they had in the military camp.

He had never seen much of the world, so he was fascinated by the stories Rayen often told him.

After confirming the route, Rayen immediately put away the map and said, "Then it's settled! You two go collect some military supplies. I'll collect weapons and ammunition."

"In short, we want to find them as soon as possible. Otherwise, we won't have the ability to survive in this damn place!"

Then, the three of them began to work among the dead.

...

At the same time, fierce battles were breaking out on the other fronts of the battle.

Among them, the Canwald Highlands, the Dawa Plains, and the Ted Mountain Range, which were located at the border of the two countries, were filled with the sound of gunfire and mountains of corpses and blood.

However, the most intense battle was in the Dawa Plains.

As the entire region was dry and wide, it was very conducive to battle. Hence, the two armies placed their main forces and headquarters here.

The desire to kill off their opponents increased the frequency of the battle.

In just a few days, both sides lost over 8,000 soldiers, and the number would continue to increase. This would continue until either side died or received the order to retreat.

Based on the current results, the Vulture Corps was currently winning.

After all, their soldiers were not as strong as the people who grew up learning martial arts.

Hence, the morale of the Vulture Corps was extremely high!

Every day, the voices of the various commanders reached their ears.

However, even with such a good result, the command center of the Vulture Corps was in a heated argument.
