Chapter 0353: A beautiful turnaround
Retreating was the only way the staff could think of to minimize losses.
The staff officer did not receive any military orders from Elder Luofu. Besides, victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists. It is not necessarily the case that American soldiers can win every battle.
I have to say that the staff officer's mentality is actually very good.
At the same time, it was his command that saved his own life. Because Zhao Qitian had pointed the muzzle of the gun at the staff officer with the scope on it, Zhao Qitian's purpose was to kill all the commanders of this American army. Let this American army never have a
command.
But just before Zhao Qitian was about to shoot, the staff officer actually issued an order to retreat. This was just what Zhao Qitian wanted, because there were too many people in Laomei, and Zhao Qitian didn't want to die with them in this forest. Now that he had made the decision
With such a clear command, there is really no need to kill him.
To win a war, sometimes it is not necessary to kill all the enemies.
Zhao Qitian put away the sniper rifle, and then said to Master Chao with a wireless communication: "Chao, they are about to withdraw. You can weaken the firepower a little. We are always ready to find a safe place to leave the forest."
Only by weakening the firepower of one side can the fierce war distance between the two sides be widened.
"Well, Boss Zhao, I received it."
Master Chao's voice immediately came from the other end of the communication.
Chaoye then informed all the machine gunners to slow down the chase and increase the distance between the two sides.
It seems that these American soldiers have also thought about evacuating this fucking battle, especially after learning that General Lake was killed by an opponent's sniper.
As soon as they heard the staff's order to evacuate, they turned around without hesitation and fled towards the base outside the forest... No! In order to 'respect' the other party, they should evacuate.
In less than ten minutes, the fighting distance between the two sides was completely widened. The American soldiers gradually withdrew from the forest. From the more than 3,000 people who came in, only about half, more than 1,000 people are left.
.And most of the remaining soldiers were injured to varying degrees. Many of them were burned by fire.
If I could describe it in one sentence, it would be a defeated army and a lost dog...
All this is because of Lake's recklessness!
Although the staff officer did not know Lake's inner thoughts and purposes, all of this was caused by Lake's recklessness.
Now that Lake is dead, all the blame can naturally be placed on Lake.
"Get me through to Pentagon Command"
After the remaining troops withdrew to the vicinity of the base, the staff officer shouted to a correspondent.
Soon, the correspondent dialed the number of the Pentagon's military headquarters.
The call was answered by an executive who was specifically in charge of this area. He seemed to be very concerned about the war situation here. After all, the whole world was laughing at the United States. So as soon as the call was connected, the staff officer immediately heard the urgent voice on the other end of the phone.
voice of inquiry.
"How is the situation over there? Has the mercenary named Su Ge been caught?"
The staff officer listened to the voice on the phone, subconsciously touched his still red and swollen cheek, and said in an uncertain tone: "Sir, our operational mission has failed again."
Often when these words are said, it is a great shame for any soldier, but then the staff officer quickly said: "But this is all caused by General Lake's reckless and stupid combat command. General Lake has no regard for the lives of the soldiers and goes his own way.
, which is why it has caused the serious consequences now.”
Before making the call, the staff officer had already thought about placing all the blame on Lake. Anyway, Lake is dead now. In addition, this is indeed the consequence of Lake's insistence on going his own way.
"Asshole! Asshole!"
As soon as he heard from the staff that the operation had failed again, the commander on the phone instantly became irritable.
"Where's Lake? Let him tell me."
The commander on the phone roared angrily again.
"General Lake...he was killed"
The staff officer said regretfully with a sad tone.
"What? Killed in action?"
The voice on the phone was obviously shocked.
After all, Lake is a veteran who has been fighting for decades.
"Sir, we have run out of bullets and there are still many wounded who are seriously injured. What should we do now?"
The staff officer took the phone again and asked for instructions.
Indeed, what the staff said is a very serious issue. Food and medicine are still a small matter, because before coming, these military necessities were very sufficient. The most important thing is that there are many wounded now, and the bullets are not particularly sufficient.
If we encounter local attacks or sneak attacks at this time, we will have unimaginable consequences.
It took a long time for the other end of the phone to give a reply to the staff: "You guys stay where you are, I'll go have a meeting first."
After speaking, the phone was hung up.
The staff officer stood there with a complicated expression on his face.
At the same time, all the Longya security guards under Zhao Qitian had safely exited the forest, including a group of mercenaries led by Su Ge.
At this time, the fire had swallowed up the entire forest, and the raging fire reflected the entire sky red. It was like God's will, and he was kindly 'cleaning' this battlefield.
"Boss Zhao, where are you now? We have all evacuated."
Master Chao's voice came from Zhao Qitian's headset.
Because all the Longya security guards and Su Ge's mercenaries had withdrawn from the forest, except Zhao Qitian.
"I am now filming a blockbuster movie."
Zhao Qitian immediately smiled. Then he took a camera in his hand and shot a circle in the forest. Basically, the photos were taken of the corpses of American soldiers, especially Lake's corpse. Zhao Qitian also gave him a close-up.
After the shooting was almost done, Zhao Qitian rushed out of the forest. Because his speed was so fast, there was even a trail of black smoke behind Zhao Qitian.
"Chao, how are our people doing?"
After Zhao Qitian rushed out of the forest, he immediately looked at Master Chao and asked.
The casualties of the security guards are of course what Zhao Qitian is most concerned about right now.
"I haven't had time to count, but depending on the situation, there should be very few casualties, most of them are injured."
Mr. Chao glanced at the security guard Longya beside him and said.
"Well, go back now, we have a lot of golden sore medicine prepared."
Zhao Qitian nodded, then looked at Su Ge and asked, "What about you?"
Su Ge and Zhao Qitian looked at each other and said, "There are probably more than a hundred people left."
Su Ge's originally two to three hundred mercenaries should be more than half dead now.
Zhao Qitian patted Su Ge gently on the shoulder, and then said: "You have helped us this time. I will not let your help go in vain."
"I will give each of you five hundred thousand as a reward. Once you get the money, you can leave."
After speaking, Zhao Qitian smiled slightly.
Indeed, Zhang Qitian would not allow Su Ge to help with this task in vain. Although there were some grievances before, these grievances were settled after Su Ge helped shoot the two videos.
When Su Ge heard that Zhao Qitian wanted to give each person 500,000 yuan as a reward, he looked at Zhao Qitian with wide eyes in surprise. Five hundred thousand yuan per person was not a small amount.
"Okay, don't be stunned, everyone go back together"
Zhao Qitian said loudly.
"Oh, by the way, I want you to help me take a VR video before I go back."
