Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

The smell of smoke in the air became stronger and stronger, and the sound of bullets and artillery fire became even more concentrated. When they rushed out of the alley, the four of them bumped into more than a dozen civilians who were fleeing in all directions. They let out sharp and miserable cries as they ran over, causing the four people’s solemn gazes to turn even colder.

”This way, stay close!” The alley was like a maze, and V8 was like the master of the maze, always finding the right exit as quickly as possible.

”Someone’s coming!” In the darkness, Ye Jian heard several panicked footsteps coming from behind. Someone had chosen the same escape route as them!

Ahead, another 10-man squad ran past the front of the alley. V8 clamped a hand over the mouth of a 13 or 14-year-old girl, blocking off all her screams. All that could be heard were her muffled grunts.

Beside K7 was a middle-aged couple holding a child. Behind them was an old man in his 60s.

This was a family of five. They had escaped from the center of the war and were preparing to escape to the child’s aunt’s house.

”I’m going to let go now. You, don’t make a sound. If you make a sound, your mom, dad, and grandfather will be shot by those outside. Do you understand?” V8 communicated with the girl, who was covering her mouth, in the local language. ”I’ll count to three and let go of you.”

The girl, whose eyes were wide with shock, nodded in panic, indicating that she understood.

V8 let go. She clamped her hand over her own mouth. In the night, the girl’s bright eyes were filled with heartbreaking fear.

She was terrified, but she was responsible for scouting the way and protecting the family as they left.

Only then did Ye Jian notice that the children the middle-aged couple was carrying were both disabled.

”Can you guys take us? Can you take us?” the 60-year-old man asked in a trembling voice. ”If it’s not possible, can you take three little kids and leave with them? Can you?”

The middle-aged couple’s eyes were filled with hope as they stared at the four people who had saved them. Ye Jian’s appearance made them feel safe.

V8 looked at the two children still in his arms. They were about four or five years old and had trouble with their feet and legs… V8 sighed softly. ”I’m sorry, but we can’t take you with us. You’d better find a secluded spot. I suggest you don’t go through the city.

”Once someone sees you, there’s a good chance they’ll start shooting. You’d better find a place to hide now, just to be safe.”

They had to refuse. Otherwise, it would inevitably slow them down.

They were not here to represent individuals, nor could they be heroes!

They took the risk to enter the country because behind them was the stability of the country’s border and the personal safety of the citizens at the border!

They did not have a choice to make. Refusal was the only thing they could do now. It was cruel, but there was no choice.

V8’s answer destroyed all hope in the old man’s eyes. The girl bit her lower lip and bowed slightly to V8 to show gratitude for saving them.

This was the first time Ye Jian met a civilian who asked her for help in a war. Her choice was also based on national affairs. She looked away and avoided eye contact with the girl.

This was war. A cruel and merciless war!

Ye Jian looked at the bungalow behind her. A glint flashed across her eyes as she immediately looked at V8. If they couldn’t take them away, they could at least let them hide in this bungalow for the time being!

”I’ll do it,” K7 said very softly in English. He took out his dagger and picked the large, locked lock on the bungalow door behind him.
