Chapter 71

  The thugs on the big truck were also stunned by his brilliant move. Watching Wang Jia spin around in mid-air and kick towards them with both feet, they forgot to shoot. When they reacted and wanted to open fire, Wang Jia's left foot had already kicked the driver's throat. A mouthful of blood splattered onto Wang Jia's left foot, and the thug on the right was about to shoot when Wang Jia's right foot swept over, kicking him in the temple. His head heavily hit the backboard of the cab, with brains splattering everywhere. The thug in the passenger seat tried to jump out and escape but was caught by Li Nan, who had just crawled out, and his neck was squeezed tightly by the car door. He immediately suffocated. After pulling him down from the truck, Li Nan quickly climbed up, Wang Jia started the engine, and drove around the excavator with the door open. He leaned sideways, bent over, grabbed Wang Yuan's hand, and pulled him up fiercely. Wang Yuan's feet left the ground (because his toes had been crushed into a bloody pulp, only using his heels to exert force). With Jin Feng's help, he flew onto the truck, and the movement was also smooth and elegant, extremely beautiful. However, compared to Wang Jia's earlier incredible move, it was still worlds apart. After Wang Yuan got on the truck, he exchanged a glance with Wang Jia. They nodded at each other, and from Wang Yuan's eyes, Wang Jia saw gratitude, trust, and admiration. He was delighted that they had accepted him as one of their own comrades. It was also reassuring because he knew that teamwork required trust and cooperation.

  "Wang Jia, step on the gas pedal all the way, we just wasted ten minutes." Li Nan reminded.

  "Got it," he said, flooring the accelerator. The car let out a beast-like roar and sped off, kicking up clouds of dust along the way.

  Wang Yuan saw that some bandages and iodine had fallen out of the car, and he wrapped up his toes, which were already bloody and swollen.

  "King Yuanjian, can you still hold on?" Li Nan asked with concern.

  "You'd better take care of your own wound first, your blood is gushing out faster than the car." Wang Yuan retorted.

  "My wound is bearable, but yours isn't. Add some MSG and salt, and we can wrap up the dumplings."

  "Then you... just... go and change Sun Erniang's baozi shop into a jiaozi shop, my toe is injured and so is my heel, I can still jump around, see if your dog's leg can be shot and still use your head to jump." Wang Yuan saw that he was gritting his teeth and tightening the muddy flesh.

  "Are you kidding me? This car doesn't even have a windshield, it's messing up my hair!"

  "Two seriously injured people were still there, I don't know what material they are made of. The 'Lightning Sword' is indeed not a vain name." Wang Jia didn't speak, he was just quietly thinking to himself, he wasn't one who liked to talk much.

  "The Public Security Bureau has contacted the SWAT team of M City and they have dispatched their most elite special task force."

  Li Nan received a call from W City via satellite phone.

  "Alright, thanks to them, even the chrysanthemum greens have gone cold." Wang Jia, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up with a calm tone.

  "How can you say that? They are also our brother troops." Li Nan retorted.

  "I'm not unfamiliar with them, just you wait and see, within an hour or so, I'll definitely receive a call saying that reinforcements are being blocked."

  "It seems you have a prejudice against our SWAT team." Li Nan said with a smile.

  "They just send out a few people, and the police at least dispatch several hundred to deal with them, this is their habit."

  "How much longer will it take for us to arrive?" Wang Yuandian asked.

  "If everything goes smoothly, in two hours, you'd better make a phone call to "Dian Xue" No. 2 and ask them to stop the bandits on Highway No. 2 and Highway No. 3 at all costs. If necessary, it's best to contact the local field army."

  "Field Army? Can they carry out tasks internally?" Li Nan asked in puzzlement.

  "We can wear plain clothes to carry out tasks, why can't they change into police uniforms to carry out tasks?"

  "That makes sense, I'll contact them right away."

  "You just said two hours ago, does that mean we might still run into their ambush?"

  "From what I know of them, it's over 90% likely."

  The atmosphere in the car became tense again, Wang Yuan picked up the AK47 left by the thugs, and Li Nan rummaged through the whole carriage to see if there were any weapons or ammunition left behind. It's not that they're afraid of them, but rather they don't want to waste time that could be spent rescuing the students. Li Nan had personally experienced the thugs' methods before, and calling them beasts would be a compliment.

  Luckily, Li Nan found some bullets and several RGD-5 hand grenades under the seat in the carriage. This type of grenade was developed by Russia in the early 1990s as a low-scattering grenade specifically designed to target personnel lying on the ground.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, less than half an hour later, the Public Security Bureau called and said that reinforcements were blocked.

  "Damn it, Wang Jia, you guessed it right. Reinforcements are blocked."

  "Didn't they contact the local troops?"

  "They have contact and are rushing over with all their might."

  "That's good, hopefully bigger."

  "How did you know so much about the special police?"

  "The special police's main task is to subdue thugs, so they train with the goal of subduing them. You think this group, these thugs are strictly trained. Subduing them isn't that simple? But it's different for the field army, their training is mainly focused on eliminating the enemy, just like us," Wang Jia said, still hesitating a bit when talking about the thugs. After all, he used to be one of them.

  "Now that you mention it, it makes sense. Different divisions, different responsibilities. If we were to deal with some of the less serious offenders, we wouldn't be as effective as they are."

  Wang Yuan nodded in agreement with Li Nan's statement.

  "Don't nod your head, you can only eliminate the enemy, capturing is also not allowed"

  Li Nan also made a joke about Wang Yuan. Actually, he just wanted to ease the tense atmosphere in the car.

  "I know you're capable of it, after all, you're a great hero." Wang Yuan said lightly.

  Li Nan couldn't figure out whether Wang Yuanshan was praising or scolding him. However, he thought that if Wang Yuanshan were to praise him, he wouldn't be so good. He was about to scold him a few times when he heard Wang Jia say: "Be careful, hold on tight."

  "What's wrong?"

  "There is a car behind."

  Li Nan and Wang Yuan almost simultaneously turned their heads to look back at the rear glass window of the driver's compartment. Sure enough, there were several military trucks chasing after them, moving very fast.

  "Are they reinforcements for our field army?"

  "Is the license plate of the military vehicle blue?"

  Li Nan turned back and took a closer look. It was indeed a blue license plate, and the driver was even carrying a rocket launcher.

  "They have rocket artillery."

  "I know, hold on tight." Wang Jia had a look of strategic planning.

  They all knew that at this time, no matter how confident he was, they couldn't disturb him anymore. Li Nan thought that if he were driving, he would also make some dangerous moves. And while making these moves, he wouldn't want anyone to disturb him either. He could only clench his fists tightly, he wasn't afraid of encountering thousands of troops on the battlefield. Because for him, that was visible danger. Can be avoided, can launch a preemptive attack. Can control one's body at will, there are countless ways to turn danger into safety. But in a big clumsy car, controlling a vehicle to avoid heavy weapons is probably not so easy, although they all have first-class driving skills.

  "Sit tight" only saw Wang Jia suddenly release the accelerator, turn right and step on the accelerator again, shift to low gear, without even pressing the clutch. This is a military driving habit, stepping on the accelerator and then releasing it. At this time, the gears of the transmission are temporarily disengaged from the engine's drive, just like stepping on the clutch. It just saves the time of pressing the clutch.

  At this time, the car had already turned a corner and slowed down. Although stepping on the brakes can also reduce speed, stepping on the brakes after turning a corner would still require accelerating again or shifting gears, which would waste time. Downshifting to slow down may cause more wear and tear on the car, but in such a critical situation, who would still care about the car?
