Chapter 43

  However, the bandits' firepower is getting stronger and their numbers are increasing. They've run out of bullets and have even used up all the AK hand grenades on the ground. It seems that this place is a relatively large stronghold for the bandits. There must be at least several hundred people.

  Bullets whizzed past, leaving sharp echoes in the narrow corridor. The walls and floor were splattered with dazzling sparks everywhere.

  Yuan Shuai's bullets were all used up, and just as he was about to pick up an AK, a bullet hit him on the left shoulder. (The AK47 is a high-speed rotating bullet, when it enters, it's a small hole, but behind it is a hole the size of a wine cup. Blood "whooshed" out, and after a loud cry, he raised his right hand and swept the gun in a burst, knocking down several bandits who were rushing forward.

  Wang Lei saw Yuan Shuai get shot, and shouted loudly. The squad leader took the gun and fired a burst of bullets at the oncoming enemies. He yelled "Cover me!" and then dragged him back while retreating.

  Wang Yuanjian and Zhang Qipeng rushed to the front to cover him. Yuan Shuai gritted his teeth and said to Wang Lei, "Open the door of the room, or we'll all be done for."

  Wang Lei fired a shot at the door lock on one side and kicked it open with one foot, dragging him into the room.

  Yuan Shuai continued to command: "Take out the BK788 directional bomb and install it on the outermost gun, set the height to 1.2 meters, time setting 30 seconds, tell them to come in quickly."

  "Captain, let me bandage you first, you're bleeding too much." Wang Lei had never seen such a scene before, and seeing Yuan Shuai bleed so much made him feel a bit panicked.

  "Get them in here first, one minute late is one minute of danger, hurry up".

  Wang Lei set up the bomb and then ran to the door, shouting loudly, "Quickly come in, first withdraw."

  Everyone took turns covering each other as they retreated into the room. Suddenly, a loud explosion shook the ground, and a hole about one person high and two people wide was blasted out of the wall.

  "Number 9, Number 27, escort the captain out first, we'll cover you, quickly." Wang Yuan saw the order.

  After Yuan Shuai and others walked far away, Zhang Qipeng took out a BK788S and set it to 10 seconds before quickly withdrawing.

  Another explosion was followed by a burst of wailing and howling, after which they all retreated behind a pile of rubble. Wang Lei took out bandages to help Yuan Shuai dress his wound, which was still bleeding profusely. Their bullets were almost depleted, but the "Devout Army" troops kept emerging non-stop.

  "Our ammunition is running out, aim carefully before shooting." Li Nan said to the two of them.

  "I'm down to three bullets left." Wang Lei said.

  "I only have two left." Wang Can continued.

  "Li Nan and they all did not make a sound." Because they had all run out of bullets.

  The men of the "Devout Army" were less than ten meters away from them, bullets hitting the earth mound in front of them, mud splashing everywhere.

  As they watched, the people got closer and closer, Li Nan couldn't help it, a swift movement of his back was followed by his right hand drawing out a triangular dagger. The "devout soldier" in front of him didn't expect this move, and for a moment he couldn't react at all. Li Nan's dagger had already pierced his heart. A scorching hot blood splashed onto his face.

  The triangular blade has three blood grooves, and the bleeding speed is quite fast. So when a knife is inserted, the blood will spray out quickly along the blood groove.

  Watching a lively life die in front of him at such close range, Li Nan suddenly felt a sense of panic, or perhaps it was a sense of guilt. Or maybe it wasn't either, but an indescribable feeling that only he knew, the shock he felt in his heart. Sometimes killing someone is more painful than taking one's own life. He panted heavily, shouting loudly as his hands trembled nonstop. Yet he still gripped the dagger tightly, pushing himself forward, using the bandit he had just stabbed to death as a shield, that bandit who was now riddled with bullets like a honeycomb coal by his "comrades" from behind.

  Wang Lei and Wang Can were stunned by Li Nan's action just now. For a moment, they forgot to fire their guns. Wang Yuanjian and Zhang Qipeng snatched the guns from their hands and continued to shoot at the people rushing up from behind.

  The five bullets were quickly used up. At this time, several bandits who rushed up from behind aimed at Li Nan and were about to fire. Just as they were about to shoot, Yuan Shuai picked up a dagger and flew out, just in time to hit one of the bandits' throats. At the same time, he didn't care that his hand was still bleeding profusely. He quickly jumped over and rolled on the ground, then pulled out a triangular spike and stabbed it into the foot of another bandit who was about to fire. The bandit suddenly felt a sharp pain in his foot, and his hand shook involuntarily, causing the bullet to whizz past Li Nan's ear.

  Yuan Shuai stood up and stabbed a knife into his chest. A stream of blood spurted onto his face.

  At this moment, he finally felt the feeling that Li Nan had just now. It was a shock that couldn't be described in words. But the situation on the scene didn't allow him to savor it carefully. There was already someone beside him who had fired at him, his body fell backwards, and his left foot hooked the gun that had fallen from the hand of the bandit he had just stabbed to death. A burst of bullets flew past his chest. The gun that had been hooked by his foot was caught by him, and he pulled the trigger without any hesitation. The guy who had fired at him earlier let out a few groans and stopped struggling.

  "Li Nan, pick up a few guns and hide behind the mound!" Yuan Shuai shouted loudly. After all, in this era of hot weapons, relying on fists and feet is not enough.

  They casually picked up a few guns and pushed them back.

  Wang Lei and Wang Can were stunned by their own actions just now. Li Nan's sprint speed, Yuan Shuai's flying dart, and the hook gun movement when he fell to the ground earlier. In such a critical situation, they can still complete this series of actions so accurately. It's almost like something that only happens in American blockbusters.

  If they had some doubts about what was reported in the newspapers before, then this time they thoroughly believed it.

  Yuan Shuai's hand was still bleeding from the intense exercise, and Wang Lei took the gauze and wrapped it around his hand a few more times.

  "It's strange, why didn't they chase out?" Li Nan asked uneasily.

  "They are transferring all their troops over to the cell where they're holding the hostages."

  "Why?" Li Nan asked.

  "They won't believe that just a few of us dare to come and rescue them, they must think we're making a feint. Afraid that we'll use the tactic of 'making a loud noise in the east while attacking in the west'."

  "What should I do now?"

  "Zhang Qipeng, listen, which direction are they heading in?"

  "Okay."

  Zhang Qipeng lay on the ground and listened.
