Chapter 267 - 261: Chilled to the Bone
A blaze consumed all of the enemy’s courage.
But when you have a gun in hand and not many people in front of you, when deciding whether to surrender or resist, most people won’t have time to weigh the pros and cons, they will simply react instinctively.
Brave ones might instinctively open fire, while cowards might instinctively surrender.
If Liu Chunxiao were facing just one person, or a few people, the situation would be simpler; but Liu Chunxiao and Gao Yuan were blocking a command post, which was packed with at least a hundred people, including commanders and staff officers from a large group of rout soldiers.
So there would always be people who, out of instinct rather than bravery, would open fire.
After shouting "Surrender and you won’t be killed", Liu Chunxiao couldn’t actually wait for all the enemies to lay down their arms, as he saw someone already raising their gun towards him.
He had no choice but to pull the trigger again.
Another burst of flames shot out, instantly engulfing the enemies crowded in the narrow alley.
There were more chilling screams, and more people ablaze running chaotically.
Liu Chunxiao was reluctant to kill captives, but the problem was the people in front of him were not prisoners of war at all.
