After Leitao, Hu Hansi, and Chen Feiyang linked up with the others, they could hear the sounds of an intense firefight coming from the direction of the thermobaric explosion. Furrowing his brows with a grave expression, Leitao’s mind raced as he quickly weighed the pros and cons. The current situation was chaotic and murky, with various factions moving under the surface; acting blindly would only increase the risks.
After careful deliberation, Leitao made his decision and told his team, "Brothers, let’s not be in a rush to wade into this mess directly. I plan to lead the team into the deep mountains first to rendezvous with the Eighth Route Army Task Force. It’s concealed there, and we can establish a secret camp to lie low. During this time, we will focus on significantly improving everyone’s combat effectiveness. Only with strong capabilities of our own will we have the confidence to deal with whatever situation arises in the future."
The team members nodded one after another, their eyes filled with determination. They quickly packed their gear, ready to embark on the journey into the deep mountains. They finished organizing their weapons and ammunition, checked that their firearms were in good condition, and ensured everyone had sufficient dry rations and water bottles. Hu Hansi even specifically gathered some first-aid supplies just in case.
