Zhu Yajie fought and retreated with his comrades, and not far behind him was the troops led by Cao Zhen. As the task of cutting off the rear, Zhu Yajie must ensure the safety of the large army, and on the other hand, he must avoid being entangled by the Gaias' pursuit troops.

A few days after entering the desert, the troops advancing deep into the desert encountered the Gaias' pursuers. After one contact, a group of pursuers were wiped out. However, Cao Zhen knew very well that their location had been exposed. During the fight with the Gaias, Cao Zhen and others had already understood the rapid reaction of the Gaias. They had no time to clean the battlefield and continued to advance into the depths of the desert with the injured.

Along the way, more and more Gaia people intercepted them from all directions. As the opponent's strength increased, there were also small spacecraft and shuttles that appeared in the sky anytime and anywhere. If the Alpha troops could not leave as soon as possible, if the opponent did not bite them to death, the results they faced would be obvious.

Considering this reason, and from the map, their current location is close to the small base. Although they don’t know whether the location determined at the beginning is correct, they can only trust their own comrade’s judgment and memory. For the sake of the safety of the troops, Cao Zhen decided to lead a team to cut off the rear to ensure the safe escape of the large army. Zhu Yajie also knew very well that this task was very heavy, and almost a life-threatening death.

Although the Alpha troops are elite troops of the Earthlings and are equipped with high-tech weapons that can threaten the Yagai people, the number of this troops is too small. More importantly, the Gaias also have air supremacy, and under the attack of both the ground and the air, there is no chance of winning.

Moreover, the Gaias that were pursuing this time are different from the past. The weapons equipped by the robots, including the commanding Gaias, are much more powerful. In addition, the number is far greater than that of them, and the task of cutting off the rear is very difficult to perform.

A scream came from the communication equipment of the helmet, but Zhu Yajie did not look around to find who this was his scream, because it was not the first time such a scream. Whenever such a sound came, it meant that he had lost another comrade-in-arms.

The high-frequency vibrating particle knife in his hand was still sharp, and there were more than one Gaia who fell under Zhu Yajie's knife. During the process of breaking the rear, at least four Gaias were cut off by him. As for the robots, there were more. Zhu Yajie had never counted how many of them were.

Zhu Yajie, who has been practicing martial arts since childhood, is good at using double swords. He once won the entire army's martial arts championship. He almost couldn't splash water when dancing with one sword. He is also a sword instructor of the Alpha army. Almost all the members of the rear-breaking troops led by him are his disciples. It is precisely this reason that Cao Zhen handed over this arduous task to him.

Zhu Yajie and his comrades-in-arms had a total of 100 people, and now their number was less than half. In other words, half of the comrades had fallen into the vast yellow sand and lost their lives, which made Zhu Yajie feel extremely sad. These are all excellent young men! They are all the best soldiers of the Alpha army, but they died one by one in this war.

But what made him relieved was that the main force led by Cao Zhen had gradually distanced himself from the rear-end force and was heading towards the small base. If the main force could escape from danger in the end, then all the efforts of them were worth it.

Zhu Yajie, wearing an all-metal mechanical exoskeleton, stepped nearly ten meters away, and his whole body passed by a Gaia robot like lightning. The weapon in the robot's hand had just been raised, and before he could fire it, the flashing electronic eyes suddenly darkened, and his movements stumbled slightly in the air. Then the middle of the metal body was like a branch that was broken by the wind. The upper part suddenly slipped forward, but the lower part was still standing, the upper body fell on the sand surface, and a spark of electric spark exploded at the brilliance of the light, turning into a pile of scrap iron.

Zhu Yajie didn't even look at the robot that had been dealt with. Because there were countless robots in front of him, including the Gaian Commander who carried more powerful weapons. He led his troops to attack the surging Gaian troops again and again to stop them from moving forward, but the number difference between the two sides was too big. The enemy seemed to be unable to kill them no matter how hard they were killed. Even with the assistance of the all-metal mechanical exoskeleton, Zhu Yajie felt a little tired until now.

"Instructor, be careful on the left!"

A reminder sounded, and Zhu Yajie flashed back without hesitation. As soon as he flashed, a beam of light rubbed him from left to right. If he slowed down by 0.1 second, Zhu Yajie would be seriously injured even with the protection of the all-metal mechanical exoskeleton.

Through the holographic helmet Zhu Yajie saw a Gaian commander a hundred meters away from his left. The other party was holding a geometric weapon in his hand. If he guessed correctly, the beam of light just now was shot by the Gaian. Zhu Yajie stomped his feet and brought up a gust of wind. The surrounding sand was swept up in a whirlwind, and he rushed towards the target with his figure.

The Gaia people did not expect that their attack would be gone. When they saw Zhu Yajie rushing at him, they raised their guns and shot again, but Zhu Yajie easily avoided this shooting. Not only that, while avoiding it, Zhu Yajie also killed a robot that blocked his way forward.

At a distance of 100 meters, it only took 2 seconds at Zhu Yajie's speed. The second shot of the Gaia man was gone, and he was obviously a little panicked. He hurriedly retreated, trying to use the robot as a cover, but the target that Zhu Yajie had already targeted was so easy to escape? The Gaia man who had just flashed behind a robot had not had time to continue to retreat, Zhu Yajie arrived. The high-frequency vibrating particle knife in his hands was waving. The robot and the Gaia man behind it were split in an instant. With a heart-wrenching scream, the Gaia man was cut into three pieces, and the weapon he held was cut open.

Like a tiger entering the wolves, Zhu Yajie was as unstoppable as a god of war. The Gaia who commanded the robot was a little panicked amid the screams of his kind, and suddenly lost the courage to fight again. The Gaia began to retreat, and the robot blocked the Gaia and protected the Gaia's retreat. Zhu Yajie led his soldiers to rush forward for a while, and then began to separate from the other party appropriately.

A few minutes later, nearly one kilometer distance was opened between the two sides, and the frightened Gaia people did not launch a crazy attack. Zhu Yajie took this opportunity to seize the time to gather people and repair the wounded.

"Report to the instructor, 9 people were killed in our army and 3 were injured..."

"Tell me directly how many people there are to fight." Zhu Yajie asked the most important question directly.

"37 people..." the other party replied, this number still includes the minor wounded. As for the serious wounded, in this situation, he gave up directly. When he heard this number, Zhu Yajie felt sad as if he was disturbed by a knife. There are only 37 people left for such an excellent warrior.
