Su Ting nodded, then gestured to her teammates to continue. Just as they were about to reach their designated location, they suddenly noticed two figures talking in hushed tones ahead.

"...It is said that important people will be passing through here tonight on their evacuation, so please be extra careful," a rather deep voice said.

"Understood, boss. We'll keep a close eye on the surroundings," another voice replied.

Upon hearing these words, Su Ting's heart tightened immediately.

Could it be that the so-called "important person" is really nearby? Without time to think, she quickly directed her team to take cover and slowly approach the place where the other party was talking in an attempt to obtain more information.

Just then, a gust of wind blew by, rustling the leaves and breaking the silence. The two soldiers, who had been chatting, suddenly became alert and turned to look in the direction from which the sound came.

Almost simultaneously, Su Ting decisively decided to act: "Attack! Execute this quickly!"

At her command, several men immediately rushed forward and subdued the two bewildered sentries. They did so as to minimize disturbance and avoid alerting more enemies.

"Tell me! Where is that important person you just mentioned?" Su Ting asked, gripping one of them tightly, his eyes sharp as knives.

Faced with this situation, the other party was visibly trembling with fear, pleading, "He's...he's in the command vehicle in the center of the camp...please spare my life..."

After confirming this crucial information, she turned and nodded to her team members, then quickly subdued and tied the two men up, throwing them into the nearby bushes to prevent them from causing a greater commotion.

Chapter 430 Covering the Retreat

Su Ting and her team quickly made their way through the woods towards the center of the camp. In the moonlight, her eyes were as sharp as swords. They knew time was running out.

"Captain, what do we do next?" Xiao Zhang asked in a low voice.

Su Ting said in a deep voice, "We must approach that command vehicle carefully and find that important person. Once we confirm his identity, we must immediately notify Liu Qiang to cover our retreat."

Li Ming, who was in the group, suddenly stopped and said in a low voice, "Captain, there are sentries ahead. We have to go around them."

Su Ting nodded and gestured for all team members to halt. She cautiously observed for a moment, and once she was certain they hadn't been discovered, she led her team silently past the sentry's position.

As they approached the center of the camp, they had to evade more patrols. Everyone was tense and focused on their mission, and no one made a sound.

Finally, they spotted the heavily guarded command vehicle. Several bright lights flashed around it, indicating that there were clearly more guards patrolling.

"It seems the other side is taking this evacuation operation very seriously," Wang Ming said softly.

"No matter what, we must seize the opportunity," Su Ting said firmly.

She quickly assigned tasks, leading Xiao Zhang to approach the command vehicle from one side, while Li Ming and another team member flanked from the other. Working in pairs, they coordinated to get as close to the target as possible.

Just then, a series of noisy footsteps came from not far away. Su Ting quickly turned around and saw a group of enemy soldiers rapidly approaching the command vehicle.

"Oh no! Take cover!" she whispered the order.

The four men quickly hid behind a large tree, huddling together to minimize the sound of their breathing. The soldiers soon reached the command vehicle, and one of the senior officers got out and spoke with several of his entourage.

"Is everything ready? When will the important person arrive?" the officer asked.

A staff member beside him replied, "Sir, everything is ready. He should be here in about ten minutes."

Hearing this, Su Ting's heart tightened. If they missed this opportunity, the mission would likely fail. She whispered to the other team members through the communicator, "We must act before they leave."

As soon as he finished speaking, the lights near the command vehicle suddenly came on, and several figures emerged from the vehicle to begin a final check. At that moment, a person in a high-ranking uniform came into view.

"That's the target!" Su Ting whispered to Xiao Zhang. "Proceed according to plan, first take control of that officer."

Xiao Zhang nodded, and the two approached silently. Just as they were about to reach their target, a soldier noticed their movements and alertly raised his weapon.

"Enemies!" he shouted.

Without hesitation, Su Ting lunged at the nearest soldier, knocking him down with a single punch. The others reacted immediately, quickly engaging the remaining soldiers. Gunfire erupted throughout the camp, and the battle became exceptionally fierce.

Su Ting successfully subdued the senior officer and quickly pulled him to a relatively safe place.

"Tell me! Who are you here to pick up?" Su Ting demanded sharply.

The officer was pale, his eyes filled with fear. "I...I'm here to pick up our commander-in-chief..." he answered, trembling.

“Very good.” Su Ting smiled slightly. “Now it’s our turn to take over this place.”

He turned to the other team members and called out loudly, "Is everyone ready?"

"Ready, Captain!" the team members answered in unison.

Just then, Liu Qiang's voice came through the communicator: "Captain, we're ready to provide backup. Let's move out of here!"

Su Ting nodded and said to everyone, "Alright, let's take this place in one fell swoop and not give the enemy any chance to retaliate!"

Chapter 431 Minor Mistakes

"Understood!" the team members responded in unison, then quickly dispersed to prepare for the final operation.

At this moment, the situation in the center of the camp had become extremely tense. Su Ting and his team searched for every opportunity to exploit amidst the chaos. They knew that time was of the essence, and any slight mistake could ruin the entire mission.

Xiao Zhang quickly approached the command vehicle, preparing to cut off the power from the inside to prevent the enemy from requesting support via radio. Meanwhile, Li Ming and another team member were responsible for holding back the remaining soldiers, preventing them from getting close to the command vehicle.

Just as Xiao Zhang approached the command vehicle, an enemy soldier noticed his intention and shouted, "Stop! Or I'll shoot!"

Without hesitation, Xiao Zhang quickly turned around, took a step forward, and delivered a powerful punch to the opponent's chin, knocking him down.

However, this action attracted the attention of more enemy soldiers. Several soldiers quickly rushed over, their weapons pointed at Xiao Zhang.

"Watch out!" Li Ming shouted, immediately rushing forward to engage the soldiers in combat. The two worked together seamlessly, quickly overwhelming their opponents and leaving them in a chaotic mess.

"Hurry!" Su Ting shouted anxiously. She was doing everything she could to protect the high-ranking officer in case he escaped or sent out a distress signal.

"Almost there!" Xiao Zhang quickly opened the door of the command vehicle and climbed inside.

A few minutes later, the car lights suddenly went out, and all communication devices stopped working. Xiao Zhang poked his head out of the car, a satisfied smile on his face.

"Done!" he waved excitedly.

Su Ting nodded and said into the communicator, "Liu Qiang, we have taken control of the command vehicle and can now withdraw."

"Received, we're on our way to your location," Liu Qiang's voice came through the communicator.

Just then, a violent explosion suddenly resounded throughout the entire camp. Everyone's heart jumped into their throats; they had no idea where the explosion had come from.

"Captain, there's something going on over there!" Li Ming said, pointing in a direction not far away.

Su Ting looked up and saw a warehouse in the distance suddenly engulfed in flames, thick smoke billowing into the sky. Clearly, the enemy was attempting to destroy vital supplies to prevent them from falling into their hands.

"We must leave here as soon as possible!" Su Ting made a decisive decision and gave the order to his team.

At that moment, Liu Qiang's anxious voice came through the communicator: "Captain, the enemy seems to have discovered our location, and several vehicles are already heading your way!"

"Understood!" Su Ting replied. "All team members, prepare for battle!"

The team members quickly assembled, each ready for battle. They knew they had to withstand the pressure in this final moment, or all their previous sacrifices would be in vain.

Su Ting glanced at the high-ranking officer beside him, a cold glint in his eyes. "I hope you can buy us some time."

She grabbed the man's wrist and pulled him up forcefully. "Let's go. We need you to get back to base alive and give our intelligence agency an explanation."

“I…I know what to do.” The officer’s voice trembled slightly, but he nodded nonetheless.

“Okay, that’s settled then.” Su Ting released his grip and turned to look at his team members. “Let’s fight to the end together and ensure everyone’s safe evacuation.”

"Yes!" the team members responded in unison, their morale soaring, as if nothing could stop them from moving forward.

Just then, the roar of engines came from afar; the enemy was closing in. Su Ting gripped his weapon tightly, took a deep breath, and prepared to face the impending challenge.

"They've arrived? Then let's end this game." She murmured to herself, her gaze fixed resolutely on the distance.

Chapter 432 On the Eve of the Decisive Battle

The roar of the engine grew louder and louder, accompanied by the sound of tires rolling over the mud. In the distance, car headlights approached like will-o'-the-wisps in the darkness, and Su Ting and his team held their breath.

"Captain, are you ready?" Li Ming gripped his weapon tightly, his eyes burning with fighting spirit. He knew this battle was not only about the success of the mission, but also about the lives of everyone involved.

Su Ting nodded and ordered in a low voice, "Everyone spread out and find cover! Xiao Zhang, go and control the high ground and try to slow them down."

Xiao Zhang nodded quickly, turned and ran towards a high point on the edge of the camp. He wanted to ensure that any enemy entering this area could be accurately sniped and slowed down.

Su Ting's gaze then turned to the senior officer, and she said coldly, "Sir, I hope you won't do anything foolish, otherwise we cannot guarantee your safety."

The senior officer swallowed hard and nodded slightly. He understood that this battle was also a matter of life and death for him. Although he was the one to be captured, in this situation, his life was also in the hands of these people.

"They're here!" Li Ming's voice broke the brief silence. The lights in the distance gradually became clearer, revealing five jeeps speeding towards them, each with a heavy machine gun mounted on its roof.

"Everyone, get ready. Don't make any rash moves!" Su Ting said in a deep voice. She knew that the enemy's firepower was fierce, and once they entered firing range, the situation would become very difficult.

As the first vehicle came into range, Xiao Zhang decisively opened fire. The bullet accurately pierced the windshield, and the driver fell to the ground. The vehicle instantly went out of control and crashed into a nearby tree. However, a second vehicle immediately filled the gap and continued towards their position.

"Fire coverage!" Su Ting shouted the order. The team members opened fire quickly, a dense hail of bullets raining down. Instantly, the air was filled with the sounds of gunfire and the sharp clanging of metal.

The enemy was not to be outdone; the heavy machine gun on the roof of the vehicle began to fire wildly, sparks flying everywhere, and several stray bullets nearly grazed Su Ting's shoulder. She rolled away to avoid them, and at the same time pulled the trigger, taking down several approaching enemies one by one.

In the chaos, Su Ting suddenly heard a cry of alarm. Turning around, he saw a team member who had been shot in the leg and was lying on the ground, groaning in pain.

"Pull him back quickly!" she shouted anxiously. Two team members immediately stepped forward and, braving heavy fire, dragged their wounded comrade back behind cover.

"Captain, I'm fine, I can keep fighting." The injured team member gritted his teeth and persevered, his voice trembling, but his eyes still shone with determination.

Su Ting patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him, "You did a great job. Leave the rest to us."

Just then, Liu Qiang's urgent voice came through the communicator: "Captain, it seems the enemy has reinforcements on their way. They'll be here in a few minutes!"

"Understood." Su Ting frowned; time was running out. She glanced at the senior officer, a cold glint in her eyes. "Looks like we need to speed things up. You, come with me!"
