Chapter 19: Sniper
For the past two days, he had a strange feeling, as if he sensed something dangerous lurking in the air. In the jungle, intuition was crucial. This 'hair-standing-on-the-back-of-his-neck' feeling made him very uncomfortable. It would be better to leave these Taiwanese people behind; they were too unprofessional. If his cover was blown because of them, it would be a lot of trouble. Sam didn't want to engage in a firefight with the Chinese army here. He had been on many missions and was an old hand in the military, with a keen understanding of global politics. Unlike those third-world countries that changed presidents three times a year, China was a major world power; it was better to be low-key when operating on their turf.
After a moment's weighing of the pros and cons, Lieutenant Sam made up his mind, gave a string of hand signals, and everyone understood. In an orderly manner, they slipped into the dense thicket in twos and threes, leaving the Taiwanese special forces squad to continue on its own.
"...Quick gun, take a defensive position, rendezvous at the predetermined location." Sam said before he left.
"Don't worry, Sam, I've got this. Keep an eye on our neighbors. Those 'goblins' are troublemakers, don't stir up any trouble..." He bumped fists with Sam and watched as his squad retreated stealthily before quickly putting on a digital camouflage cloak and retreating another hundred meters to find a thicket of bushes, slowly crawling inside. He set up his sniper rifle, closed his eyes, and quietly sensed the atmosphere around him...
Not far away, a small hillside covered with dense trees and ferns shines green, with the wind swaying. The sunlight is almost completely blocked by the rainforest's broad-leaved plants, making it seem somewhat cold and desolate. Sharp Knife lies on the ground, setting up his 85-style sniper rifle, observing the target's every move through the scope. His entire body is draped in camouflage gear, with some plants inserted into his clothes as camouflage, blending seamlessly into the environment. No signs of existence can be seen. AK lies on the back of the hillside, stroking the single-soldier earphone communication key with his hand.
"...Distance 400, ten sheep, vanguard has bitten down, direction 11 o'clock, finished"
"Got it! Twin Snakes arriving on your right flank. Keep alert, I'm leading the team to surround." Night Yang Jian's slightly panting voice came from the earpiece.
"The vanguard understands." AK hung up the call and turned around, only to see that by the side of the swamp, under several large trees, Dusan and Eyesnake were disguised as mud, lying on the ground. Their bodies were covered with mottled fallen leaves and a few withered branches, making it impossible for ordinary people to detect that there were two people lurking there. Only from the side could be seen the black holes covering the camouflage-colored 03-style sniper rifle's long barrel, revealing their identity as snipers.
The observer, glasses snake, placed the 99-style assault rifle by his side, slightly propped up his body, picked up the binoculars and carefully observed the situation in front of him. With the help of skilled training and coordination, he divided the firing area in front into several blocks, and lightly reported a string of numbers and coordinates to his partner.
"...wind speed 3 meters per second...humidity over 50%...visibility good. Distance 400, area has been divided."
A venomous snake lay on the ground, skillfully adjusting the rifle's scope trajectory and wind deflection based on data provided by the eyeglass snake. A hint of a smile hung on his oil-painted face, like a bamboo leaf green ready to pounce on its prey.
At the same time, the assault team was rapidly advancing to implement a flanking encirclement.
Night Yang Jian, with his face smeared with camouflage paint, was leading the other three members of the assault team in a high-speed dash through the rain. Their agile figures would occasionally flash by in the dense tropical jungle. As they moved in a snake-like manner, they appeared extremely eerie in the rainforest filled with dappled light.
Anticipating the current situation, Ye Yangjian plans to lead the assault team to launch a surprise attack from behind the enemy, forcing the terrified enemy into the sights of the firepower and sniper teams. Under the three-sided encirclement of the Wolf Pack Squad, combined with the powerful firepower, Ye Yangjian believes that even if you are "Blue Wave in the World", he can still turn you into a beehive.
"Baron, heavy firepower team in position!" The big bear set up the general-purpose machine gun and loaded bullets. Tank held a shotgun and stood beside the big bear, using the radio to inform other teammates.
