Chapter 125
The dozen or so soldiers hiding in the village to recover from their injuries quickly hid in the Village chief's cellar under the cover of the villagers.

Among the soldiers were both men and women. They had originally planned to meet their comrades at a predetermined location, but they hadn't expected the city to fall so quickly.

Forced to leave, they were ambushed during their retreat. Half of their squad suffered casualties, leaving them no choice but to temporarily seek refuge in the villagers' homes to recover.

At that moment, outside the village.

The enemy commander stood at the village entrance, shouting, "I've heard that you're harboring militia! If you come clean, we'll spare your lives!"

"No, we wouldn't dare. Sir, all our villagers are here..."

"What a beautiful young lady... She's quite a catch. Take her!"

"Ah! Father! No..."

"You have an old saying: 'The wise adapt to circumstances.' Since you won't hand them over, there's no use keeping this village..."

In the cellar.

More than a dozen people huddled together, not daring to breathe.

Gu Sang was the least injured among them.

She held her breath and slowly put her ear to the cellar entrance. The muffled conversation between the enemy and the villagers faintly reached the cellar.

Watching this scene, the ancient people viewing the live broadcast unconsciously slowed their breathing, their hearts in their throats for Gu Sang, fearing she might be discovered by the commander outside.

In the great hall.

Pei Changying gripped the carved decorations on the dragon throne tightly. Although he knew it was just acting, the atmosphere made him feel as if he were really there.

He murmured in a deep, emotional voice, "Sang Sang, don't get too close to listen. You'll be discovered."

"Sang Sang, how can these people be so crude? Why do they speak so strangely? They don't sound like they're from the Central Plains."

"Shut up, be quiet," Gu Sang snapped impatiently.

Of course, the people from the future couldn't hear this exchange.

They only saw Gu Sang's eyes glaze over for a second.

Then, Gu Sang tiptoed back to her comrades.

With a grave expression, Gu Sang said, "Those enemies are real bastards. I heard them say they've captured all the villagers and are preparing to burn down the village."

"And... I heard them mention young ladies..."

She hadn't heard clearly, but those two words were enough to convey the meaning.

Those soulless beasts were pillaging, killing, and committing all manner of atrocities!

They didn't treat people as human beings at all!

"You stay here. I'll go out and take the opportunity to shoot them. We can't let the villagers shield us," Gu Sang said, loading her gun with a look of determination.

The soldiers and the nurse all wore expressions of grim resolve as they said, "Deputy squad leader, I'm going out too. We might as well fight these beasts to the death."

"That's right, our duty is to protect every civilian and fight to the last moment! If these villagers die to save us, we'll have failed our uniforms and our organization."
