Chapter 635 The Retreating Sweethearts
When the biscuit officer opened the letter and began to read it, he was completely stunned.
Because this letter clearly states two words:
"retreat!?"
"Why?!"
The officer in charge of the biscuit was completely astonished. Although the letter was signed by Lieutenant Colonel Macaron, he could not understand the decision the other party had made.
It's important to understand that although they suffered repeated setbacks in the recent battle, they still have a large number of people and the cost of trial and error.
Now that the battle has reached a fever pitch, even if their individual strength is inferior to that of the enemy, they can still fight back and forth with the advantage of numbers.
Indeed, they did lose a lot of men in the battle, but for them, who could be reborn from the factory, it was not a big deal.
Therefore, even if it comes down to a desperate battle of attrition, they still have the advantage. What's more, they have the artillery that's about to arrive. Once that thing enters the battlefield, the scales of victory will quickly tip in their favor, and they might be able to win this battle very soon.
The officers in charge of the biscuit department did not believe that Lieutenant Colonel Macaron could be unaware of this, yet even under these circumstances, Lieutenant Colonel Macaron still issued the order to retreat.
What exactly is this for? !
The biscuit official was very puzzled and even read the contents of the letter repeatedly, trying to see if he had misread it or missed something.
However, no, Lieutenant Colonel Macaron's order was to retreat, and judging from the letter, it seemed quite urgent.
The biscuit officer was very conflicted. He looked at the fiercely contested battlefield, a hint of reluctance in his eyes. It was clear that he did not want to give up the victory that was about to be won.
but.......
"Hey!! We're leaving, we're retreating..."
These words were spoken to the Chocolate Sergeant, and it was clear that his final decision was to obey Lieutenant Colonel Macaron's order, which was to retreat.
As an officer trained by Lieutenant Colonel Macaron, he trusted the decision made by the colonel and believed that the colonel would not harm them. The colonel's letter was written in great urgency, as if something serious had happened, so he had to act quickly and could not hesitate any longer.
"Huh? Retreat! Why? We're about to win!"
Just like himself, the Chocolate Sergeant's eyes were also full of doubt and astonishment, thinking that his comrade had said something wrong.
"That's right, retreat! It's Lieutenant Colonel Macaron's order!"
The biscuit officer showed the letter to the chocolate officer and saw the same expression on his face as he had just seen on the chocolate officer.
"Why...? Doesn't the lieutenant colonel know that we're about to win?!"
"He knows, he's been observing the battle, but... in any case, we should withdraw... it's the lieutenant colonel's decision."
"This... alright!"
After agreeing on their objective, the two sergeants quickly ordered their soldiers to begin their retreat.
When this order was given, the other soldiers, just like the two who had just given it, were puzzled, and some even froze on the spot.
It was obvious that they could see that they were about to win!
Fortunately, the two non-commissioned officers, as their officers, coupled with the title of lieutenant colonel, still held considerable prestige in the military.
Therefore, although the soldiers resisted the order to retreat, they ultimately obeyed it.
The soldiers began their orderly retreat. Given their sheer numbers, even if the insect demons wanted to stop them, they might not be able to.
"Forget it, let's not chase after it anymore..."
Seeing the retreating troops, the insect captain immediately ordered his kin to stop the pursuit.
If the enemy could see that they were about to win, there was no reason why they couldn't see that although the battle appeared to be evenly matched, they were actually at a disadvantage.
If they continue fighting, their casualties will increase rapidly, and the battle will turn against them. Even if they want to fight, they may not be able to defeat their opponents.
With reinforcements yet to arrive, they had no choice but to let the enemy retreat like this. Fortunately, this battle dealt a heavy blow to the enemy, and their casualties were far less than those of the opposing side. This casualty ratio has made them famous throughout the world.
Even if the next operation doesn't go too smoothly, these terrifying sweetheart assassins will still strike fear into the hearts of their enemies, which is still quite good.
Seeing the enemy troops retreating further and further away, the insect captain also turned his attention back. As the nominal commander-in-chief of the insect demons in this battle, he announced the end of the battle to the others.
Although the insect demons suffered few casualties, they still need to recuperate. Judging from the current situation, the enemy should not continue to attack this town.
This put his mind at ease, and he prepared to return to the rear to report all the news of the battle to the king...
"I go first."
With the departure of the Sweetheart Squad and the Insect Captain from the area, the first conflict between the locals and the outsiders finally came to an end.
In this battle where both sides employed various tactics, neither side achieved a complete victory.
..............
In a peculiar, dark place, a figure less than two meters tall is battling several enormous creatures many times his size.
boom! ! ! ! !
With a powerful punch, the impact created a deafening roar in the air.
He didn't even need a stick; Lin Tian could take down this big guy with a single punch using only his physical strength.
"I can't help it, buddy, I hate disgusting bugs like you the most... Of course, my lovely subordinates are an exception..."
Boom boom boom! ! !
Lin Tian grinned mischievously, then unleashed a barrage of punches on the giant tooth worm in front of him. In that instant, a multitude of fist shadows landed on the behemoth, leaving more than a dozen dents on its body.
boom! ! ! !
Another heavy punch landed, and under Lin Tian's frenzied attack, the giant toothed worm, which required thousands of people to hunt in its native world, was suddenly knocked to the ground and then exploded due to the force of Lin Tian's punch.
boom! ! !
Seeing this, Lin Tian remained calm, as if he had just casually crushed an insect. At that moment, several other large toothed insects around him, after witnessing the horrific state of the giant toothed insect, still chose to charge towards him, appearing quite fearless.
"Tsk~ As expected, they're helping people with low intelligence..."
Lin Tian muttered to himself, then his eyes flashed as he pulled out the more efficient spiked club.
