#628 - Chapter 628 The Final Defense
"Kill all the men you see! If you encounter that woman, try to take her alive!"
On the first floor of this five-story building, the squad leader, nicknamed Old Mu, gestured for his subordinates to advance.
After their intense bombardment, they had finally breached the entrance of this resistance group's building.
They must kill them all!
To have them chased from Shanshi to here, wasting countless ammunition and suffering twenty to thirty casualties, if they let them escape today, he might as well slit his own throat!
The New Hope personnel encountered in An County, including those who chased from Shanshi and Yuncheng, were filled with resentment and were ready to give it their all!
The enemy had less than ten people left, while they had over thirty. They didn't believe these old rats could pull off a miracle!
First floor.
Clear.
Second floor.
Clear.
The enemy hadn't stationed anyone here for defense.
Third floor.
"Bang!"
As soon as they entered, the New Hope's lead man was almost shot by a Red Cloud member lying in ambush upstairs!
"Bang, bang, bang!!!"
The two sides immediately engaged in a fierce indoor gun battle!
After a while, whether due to the smoke obscuring vision or the pressure of bullets, both sides stopped firing.
"Give them something from below!"
Squad leader Old Mu said to the team member beside him with a sinister smile.
Immediately, a grenade with its pin pulled flew straight to the fourth-floor staircase!
"Boom—!"
The entire building shook, and the violent explosion reverberated far away!
The Red Cloud base personnel on the fourth floor, who were waiting for the enemies below and fighting hard to defend, were blown off their feet!
One of them was too close to the explosion and died on the spot, while three or four others were instantly severely injured.
Nearly half of them were injured or killed again!
Facing the enemies below with their complete weaponry and fierce firepower, the Red Cloud side couldn't muster any advantage.
"Quick, drag them over and stop the bleeding!"
Xiong Sen, with red eyes, dragged two of his companions from beside the center of the explosion to the other side, and shouted in a low voice to the remaining personnel who could still move.
These were all his comrades!
He never expected to encounter such a situation this time.
He himself had been scratched by shrapnel in the explosion, leaving many bloody marks, but he had no time to care about it at this moment.
The enemies below might rush up at any time, and after dragging his companions away, he needed to continue to defend this place!
Downstairs.
Seeing that the smoke from the explosion hadn't settled down, the squad leader Old Mu gestured to the team member beside him again.
The latter understood.
Of course, they knew they were resisting above. Would they be so stupid as to rush up and die?
What were they thinking?
A grenade with its pin pulled flew towards the fourth-floor staircase again. Since they wanted to defend above, then they would take another hit!
Xiong Sen, who was standing by the fourth-floor staircase, felt something. In a daze, he vaguely caught sight of something flying towards him again amidst the smoke from the previous explosion.
In a split second, his whole body went into a frenzy of warning, alerting him to the impending danger!
"Grenade!! Get down!!"
He only had time to shout this one sentence. Just as he was about to squat down, the grenade that had flown up again detonated!
"Boom—!"
Another loud noise struck Xiong Sen, who was not far away!
The large man only felt a powerful shockwave massaging his whole body. Before he could feel the pain, he was slammed hard against the wall and passed out!
The violent reaction of modern chemistry was simply not something the human body could withstand at close range.
Even more terrifying was!
Just as the aftermath of the explosion hadn't dissipated, and the Red Cloud personnel were still in a state of shock and distraction, the sound of dense footsteps came from the staircase!
The enemies of New Hope were coming up!
It was over!
At this time, they were in the midst of the post-explosion shock and tinnitus, and even their sense of direction had not fully returned. How could they fight against more numerous enemies with no less equipment!?
"Bang—!"
Before they could rush out of the smoke, gunshots rang out from the staircase!
The enemies who rushed over actually wanted to blindly shoot and kill them!
However.
The ideas and actions of these people downstairs were good, but they underestimated the others here.
"Hiss!"
The sound of a sharp blade cutting through the air rang out!
The New Hope personnel who had just rushed out of the staircase, holding pistols and preparing to continue扫射 at those Red Cloud personnel, were immediately cut and stabbed continuously by a figure!
"Uh, uh..."
Two New Hope people covered their necks in disbelief. They had just come up and hadn't seen the situation clearly before their throats were slit?
How could it be so fast...
They fell to the ground with doubt and fear.
The New Hope people who continued to come up wanted to open fire 扫射 at the black shadow and those Red Cloud personnel who were gradually recovering. At this time, the people walking in the front actually saw a familiar scene.
A black, blurry object flew towards them.
The person walking in the front stared intently, his pupils shrinking to the extreme!
What did he see!?
It was a grenade!
"Boom!"
The violent explosion rang out for the third time on the staircase, and the New Hope people who were originally planning to rush up were once again suppressed by the powerful shockwave.
This time, it was the people below who were dumbfounded.
It was still the few survivors in front who saw the situation and shouted quickly:
"Someone stole our grenade! Everyone be careful!"
Damn it!
The good charge was interrupted, and squad leader Old Mu's mood became extremely bad again.
"Then blow them all up for me! Shoot even if you can't see anyone!"
The ammunition brought this time was consumed extremely quickly. The rocket launchers had already been used up, and even the grenades didn't have many left. To actually fight like this was completely unbelievable!
It should be known that these weapons were the number that they, who were responsible for the remote monitoring of Green Source, possessed.
They also had to prepare to play a role in the upcoming general attack.
Now, how could he explain to the higher-ups?
He could only take the heads of these people back to see if he could reduce his guilt.
The scene fell into a stalemate again.
Inside the fourth floor.
Li Cai was breathing heavily. She held a short knife in her right hand, and her other left hand also held a grenade that she had just taken from the enemy!
Looking at the unconscious Xiong Sen and the Red Cloud wounded on the ground, she gestured to the remaining personnel who could still move to carry them to the final rooftop!
Set up the final defense there!
Fighting to this moment.
The Red Cloud people, including Li Cai, were already exhausted.
Did they still have hope of seeing the sun tomorrow?
In the sky above An County.
Three helicopters were making deafening roars!
It was Qing Jing and others who had rushed here from Mentang Town to rescue them!
They had finally arrived at the scene of the incident in An County.
However.
Where was the target to be rescued?
Sitting in the helicopter, Old Li, who had gone to Green Source for help in the past, couldn't say.
At that time, they were single-mindedly seeking help, and later Chief Xiong and the others were still evading pursuers. Where they had run to now was really hard to say.
Were they really still in An County?
