Chapter 58: Picking Up Dead Fish (Second Update)

  No one would think that the intruder would move in reverse, so even a strong light was only symbolically sweeping this area. The houses in this area are not densely populated, and it is very difficult to walk on the roof.

  Cape's crossbow played a crucial role, and all they had to do was tie a steel wire to the arrowhead, and a natural zip line would quickly take shape. They only needed to wear pulleys on their wrists, and they could fly back and forth between rooftops.

  Yi Xiang Guang first saw a team equipped with such gadgets, especially when Xu Ming introduced her to Kapur as an archer, she didn't understand the role of cold weapons like bows and crossbows in modern warfare. Later, Xu Ming told her that Kapur was also his spotter.

  This made Yixing Guang feel a bit more at ease, and in her heart, the role of Guanzhang Hand was obviously much greater than that of Gongzhang Hand. But after this episode, Yixing Guang's views changed.

  It's not for anything else, it's just that everyone has pulleys on their bodies, and some even have more than one set. This explains that Kappe is in the team as an archer, while the observer may be her sideline job.

  Especially when she found that Kap's crossbow could shoot over 400 meters, which shocked her. Kap's crossbow had been modified, and the range of ordinary crossbows was generally within 300 meters, because it was too far away, the shooter couldn't see the target clearly.

  Although military crossbows are also equipped with telescopes, those things are quite useless, and more often rely on the archer's own eyesight and intuition.

  While the crossbow can accurately hit targets at 400 meters, it is enough to prove that this crossbowman can almost play the role of a sniper at some times. In the dark night, the crossbowman is like a ghost from hell, silently reaping lives without being detected by the enemy.

  "Boss, we've gone to so much trouble, how can we retreat to this point again? It's somewhat contradictory to our plan and goal." Jinpu said with a smile, he knew Xu Ming must have his reasons for doing so, but still couldn't help asking.

  Xu Ming smiled, this place is relatively safe. There are busy patrolling soldiers on the streets downstairs, running back and forth, but they wouldn't think that the enemy is right above them, chatting and laughing.

  "Open the map and take a look yourself."

  Jinpu hesitantly opened the map, and everyone else gathered around. They quickly found their current location, but everyone was a bit perplexed.

  "I know some of you are puzzled because you're not snipers." Xu Ming reminded symbolically.

  But this made others even more confused, Gren pointed to the map and said: "Boss, I'm not a sniper, but I've also heard of sniper training courses. From the map, the best sniping point should be these several locations."

  Others nodded in agreement. From the map, the location pointed out by Gren is indeed the best sniping spot, which can overlook the entire Inglen Hotel and has strong concealment, also within range.

  "You can think of it, others can naturally think of it too." Xu Ming pointed to the map with a faint tone and said: "If I put a few snipers in these positions, what would happen?"

  Everyone's sweat came out immediately. If they had rushed to the position designated by Xu Ming from the beginning, if there were really snipers in those positions, the consequences would be unthinkable.

  That's an absolute disadvantage, with interception in front and pursuit troops behind, and in the darkness, there are multiple snipers hiding in unknown corners, falling into that situation, even a god can't do anything.

  "Take another look, now at our position."

  After Xu Mingyi reminded them, everyone's eyes lit up.

  Xu Ming sneered and said with a sly smile: "Don't need me to teach you how to do it, right? Picking up dead fish, isn't that easy?"

  Luk looked at the soldier in front of him with a mixture of anger and desperation, this was already the street closest to the Inglen Grand Hotel, this defensive fortification was almost ironclad.

  There were not only rocket propelled grenade launchers, but also armored vehicles and tanks. The soldiers in the fortifications were all seasoned veterans, with more than 400 people, seven heavy machine guns, and at least ten bunkers.

  Not to mention the special forces of the military, even if the army comes to attack, it will not bring any benefits. And for the special forces, that is even more fatal, who doesn't know that armored vehicles and tanks are deadly to infantry.

  "Are you sure you didn't see anyone?" Luke's face was still a sheet of iron.

  The commander-in-chief patted his chest and said that he didn't see even a mouse, let alone people.

  The streets were surrounded by three-story buildings, and Luke could say that he had others dig three feet underground. Every room, every place was searched, even the sewers, but the enemy vanished without a trace right under his nose.

  This street is Dong Xi Street, there isn't even a fork in the road in the middle, you can't fly to the other side of the sky.

  "Commander, commander." Luke's walkie-talkie crackled with an urgent voice.

  "Luc said in a low voice: 'I am, what's up?'"

  "Regimental commander, B90 defense line has discovered at least five enemies, who have been surrounded by us and are showing signs of attempting to break through. Requesting the regimental commander to dispatch troops for support."

  "B90?" Luke's eyebrow raised, he was the closest to B90 himself. Could it be the group of people he was chasing? Without hesitation, Luke led his team swiftly towards the direction of the walkie-talkie.

  Hanlin is a seasoned sniper, who has been enlisted for almost ten years. From his youthful recklessness with a passionate heart to his current numbness, he doesn't know what's right or wrong.

  Across the street was the Inglen Grand Hotel, and the person he was supposed to protect turned out to be a man like a devil. Thinking of the prosperity of Bath in the past, Hanlin felt a kind of inexplicable sorrow.

  If it weren't for the damned government holding onto resources and letting so many people starve to death, perhaps there wouldn't be this war.

  Hanlin had no reason to condemn anyone, he just needed to do his own thing, with 3,000 yuan in Huaxia currency in his pocket. The people of the small town of Bas were all killed, and the money couldn't be spent, but he knew that a slightly larger prosperous city still had some system, where eating and finding a mistress would cost money, and only recognized Huaxia currency.

  But he had an even greater dream, one that he had never told anyone about: to save up enough money and run away to the Hua Xia Empire. He didn't expect to make a name for himself or live a life of luxury in the Hua Xia Empire; just being able to survive without starving would be good enough.

  He was still daydreaming when a strong sense of danger suddenly filled every inch of his skin. He didn't see the enemy, but the breath of death was so close to him.

  He turned back in horror, a crossbow bolt rapidly enlarging in his pupils. He didn't have time to react before another bolt pierced through his brow, and as he lost consciousness, he could still see the tail of the bolt trembling at an extremely high frequency on his eyelid.
