We waited until the screaming died down before I let the guys leave the safety of the trees and approach the highway where the General and the others were. I knew that they didn't like the whole idea of hiding when people were getting killed, at least Wang Chao didn't like it. The military mentality had a firm grip on his psyche and was unwilling to let go so quickly.
Me? I prescribed to the mentality of 'let them all die'.
A high-pitched whistle and the rest of the men were climbing down their own trees and regrouped on the sides of the highway. I heard a lot of grumbling as I came up to our group of men, but it was mostly from Wang Chao and Liu Wei's side than Liu Yu Zeng and Chen Zi Han. Ignoring their looks, as if it made a difference to me, I climbed the edge of the ditch and stepped on the highway.
