Chapter 57: Joining Forces (First Part)

  Yi Xiang Guang was curled up in the corner of the room, her eyes warily watching the few people around her. It wasn't until Xu Ming walked in that her expression relaxed noticeably.

  This is a three-story civilian house, with signs of damage from war in the rooms, but possibly usable space. The second floor also has an abandoned bunker, for unknown reasons it was abandoned.

  Xu Ming and his group's resting room was on the second floor, where they could hear any movement, and also had a construction project to rely on, making it relatively easy to escape.

  Anyway, their position would be exposed at any time, and Xu Ming was used to it. They just tidied up a bit and would withdraw at any moment.

  It's possible that Xu Ming and Yi Nian Guang are both from Huaxia, so Yi Nian Guang doesn't have much guard against Xu Ming.

  "Thank you." Yixing Guang saw Xu Ming bow his head and say thank you.

  Yi Xiang Guang held an MG3 heavy machine gun in her arms, which was captured from the battlefield. Fortunately, this type of heavy machine gun is almost mass-produced, and it's not difficult to find one. Otherwise, the few rows of bullets on her body would be just decorations.

  Xu Ming was somewhat perplexed. Logically speaking, as a Huaxia person, the military shouldn't dare to give her special training, unless she was also a transmigrator like himself?

  "Why don't you go back home?" Xu Ming thought for a moment and could only ask this question.

  Yi Xiang Guang shook her head with difficulty and said: "I was brought here by my parents when I was over three years old, we sneaked across the border. Less than two years after arriving here, my parents disappeared, and I was arranged to be sent to an orphanage, where I grew up..."

  Xu Ming suddenly understood that Yixing Guang was probably the descendant of the real culprit of Huaxia, who had fled to Great Britain with his family. Little did he know that even if he came here, Great Britain would still follow the requirements of the Huaxia Empire. It was just a pity for Yixing Guang, the child's parents were guilty, but what could the child do?

  According to Xu Ming's understanding of the law in his previous life, even if they had committed murder, Yixingguang's mother would not have been sentenced to death.

  Doesn't she know that her parents don't know either? Are they guilty of a very serious crime? Or is the law different here?

  Xu Ming just casually thought about it, but after all, he met his compatriots and couldn't help feeling a sense of dependence. As the saying goes, when fellow villagers meet, their eyes are filled with tears.

  "Is there only you left in your team?" Xu Ming asked casually, fearing that he would stir up her painful memories. As soon as he finished asking the question, he regretted it - wasn't the fact that her teammates had died for her even more heartbreaking?

  Who knew that Yī Xīn Guāng not only didn't shed a tear, but instead revealed an endless killing intent, gritting her teeth and saying: "There's still one more, I will definitely kill him with my own hands."

  "Is there another one?" Xu Ming flashed a hint of doubt.

  Yi Xiang Guang said angrily: "Second brother was already injured, that bastard also hurt big brother's leg and escaped. Unfortunately, I didn't see it at the time, otherwise I would have killed him."

  Xu Ming suddenly realized that their team had someone injured and was surrounded again. That guy must have known that these three people were the closest, and took advantage of the chaos to injure one more person. With Yixing now a burden, he could only hold his ground, attracting enemy fire, so he could escape.

  It's indeed a sad thing to have such teammates, but how many truly emotional teammates are there in the base? I'm afraid most of them are just pretending.

  However, Xu Ming patted his chest and said: "You can rest assured, with big brother here, if we see him again next time, just point him out to me, no need for you to lift a hand, I'll take care of him immediately."

  "Thank you." Yixing Guang looked at Xu Ming with gratitude, as a fellow villager she naturally trusted Xu Ming very much, but Yixing Guang still pointed to the people resting around and said in a timid tone: "They..."

  Xu Ming burst out laughing and said, "Let me introduce you to them. They are all my most loyal teammates. We can all turn our backs on each other, so don't worry."

  "After finishing speaking, he pulled up Gren and said: 'The person who saved you is called Gren, an assault rifleman, brave in battle, with extremely strong comprehensive abilities.'"

  "Zhenpu, wireless communication genius, the earpiece is his modification, charger; Maya, my girlfriend, assault rifleman; outside on the fortifications is Caruso, a very generous man, also a heavy machine gunner like you; on the third floor in charge of reconnaissance is Kapu, crossbowman, skilled at driving snakes with poison."

  "My name is Xu Ming, I'm a sniper and also the commander of this team." Xu Ming stretched out his right hand with a smile and said, "Nice to meet you."

  Yi Xiang Guang also knew her situation, she believed in Xu Ming, so she stretched out her right hand and shook hands with everyone one by one, saying her name and professional skills.

  After the introduction, Xu Ming told her a few things to pay attention to, in short, it was all about following orders and such, and also told her about the bomb on her wrist. However, Yi Xingguang's expression was very calm, it was clear that she had already guessed it.

  It makes sense, a team of six people is left with only two after dying, even the stupidest person can realize that.

  Few people dared to say anything else, Yixing just casually said a few words and that was it. At this time, Kapu's voice came over, the position was probably exposed, and about 200-300 terrorist suspects were approaching in this direction.

  This was within the expectations of Xu Ming and others, just a temporary resting place, after resting naturally had to leave. When the terrorists surrounded this place, they came in but found that it was empty.

  It was Luke who arrived first. He had just seen their location on the latest satellite cloud map screenshot and ran over here as it was closest to him.

  Originally thought it was a big catch, with seven people and even hiding in the building, it must have been a sure thing. But who knew this group of people were so slippery? They were clearly surrounded but still managed to slip away.

  "Commander, there are signs of cleaning on the ground, no footprints, but this area doesn't even have dust, it's clear that someone has landed here." A commander-like person leaned in next to Luke and loudly proclaimed his scouting abilities.

  "Nonsense." Luke's face turned iron-green with rage. This place was just a street away from the Inglen Grand Hotel, and yet it had been discovered by someone. Anyone would be in a bad mood.

  "Commander, they went down from the wall crenellations." An officer pushed open a second-floor window and pointed at the wall crenellations, saying: "They must have used ropes to assist their descent. If they went down this way, they can only go in one direction, which is eastward. Because the west side has already been sealed off by us, but there are also troops sealing off the fork in the road on the eastern side, and they cannot escape."

  Luoke walked to the window, looked at the footprints left on it, and his face improved a lot. He patted the commander's shoulder with some appreciation and said, "Not bad, you've done a good job."

  The commander hastily piled up a smile and said: "Mainly because the division commander's command is proper, and the dispatch is appropriate."

  "Hmm." Luke's flattery was so smooth that he suddenly saw the commander from earlier, and with one kick, he kicked the commander's butt and scolded loudly: "What are you still standing here for? Waiting to receive an award? Hurry up and chase after me!"

  Xu Ming and his companions jumped non-stop on the rooftop, who would have thought. Xu Ming and his companions did the opposite, not only did they not get closer to their target, but they also flipped over a street from the rooftop, pulling away from the Inglewood Hotel by another street.
