Chapter 866: Her True Feelings
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Everyone looked at Huo Chen .
He was the central pillar of the army in the base .
As long as he was there, there would still be hope .
Huo Chen stood in the training field as huge raindrops pattered on his face . They felt almost painful .
He saw the panicked faces around him, but that did not cause him to waver . His steady composure had a soothing effect on his men .
“Song Shou!”
“Yes sir!”
“Prepare the men . We are going with Plan C . ”
Huo Chen did not expect the deciding battle to happen so soon .
Even if the enemy attacked them at night, he would still be able to use the escape route to fight back .
Nevertheless, they had a traitor in their ranks, and one who held a very important position . That ruined his plans .
In the end, he had to enforce the final plan, no matter what it would entail . It was their last resort!
“Yes sir!”
As Huo Chen’s second-in-command, Song Shou knew exactly what Plan C was .
He immediately gathered the higher-ups in the army and relayed the details of the plan to them .
Even though the enemy had struck first, this was still their headquarters .
It was still too early to tell who would come out of this as the victor .
The soldiers at the base were divided into four groups . They would take advantage of geographical features around the camp and lure the enemy to the booby traps that they had prepared beforehand .
Nevertheless, the enemy seemed to realize their intentions and avoided all the traps .

Not only had the traitor surrendered the escape route to the enemy, he had also informed them of the army’s preparations .
At this point, the battle could only be decided by brute force .
It was going to be a bloodbath . However, due to Z Country’s traitor, the army had nowhere to retreat .
On the contrary, the enemy had more freedom in distributing its men . They held the definitive upper hand .
As the battle started in earnest, the encampment was filled with the sound of gunshots and explosions .
Even the birds in the forest were startled by the battle and flocked away to safety .
Wen He stepped out of her room and looked around her, but the perimeter walls were too tall for her to see outside the camp .
“Wen He!”
Suddenly, she saw Huo Chen rushing toward her .
She immediately went to him, looking nervous .

She eavesdropped on the discussion by a few soldiers outside her room earlier and found out how dire their situation was .
“You cannot just continue fighting like this . Why don’t you take some men with you and try to break through the enemy forces? There might be less casualties . ”
“I cannot . ”
Huo Chen rejected her idea, but did not explain his reasoning further .
This encampment was located close to the border between Z and T Country, a very important divider between the two nations .
If they retreated, T Country would lay claim to the base .
Z Country would lose not only their base but also the country’s land .
If word got out, the great Z Country would lose its dignity and standing!
This was a battle that they must win!
The worst acceptable outcome was to reach a stalemate and wait until enforcement from both countries arrived .

Their only options were to fight, or to negotiate for a ceasefire .
Otherwise, Z Country would lose all respect from the rest of the world!
They must not leave, nor could they leave the base .
“I will send men to get you out of here!”
“I’m not leaving!”
Wen He set aside the convoluted relationship between them and hugged him tightly around the waist . She looked up at him with a tearful face and sobbed .
“Huo Chen, let us leave this place together . Every minute you spend here is a risk to your safety . You can lose the battle, but you cannot lose your life! If the military wants to court martial you, we can just leave the country and never come back . ”
