Chapter 63: Seriously Injured
The Desert Fox squad temporarily stood firm, with a safe foothold. The opponent was indeed not covering up, and didn't put life and death in their heart, rushing forward fiercely, the Desert Fox's counterattack only delayed the opponent's advance for a few seconds.
There were no more people jumping out to chase in the dark river, and the number of incoming people was certain, at least not less than 200, a full two-company force. Moreover, they were well-equipped and well-trained regular troops.
Bullets rained down on the small mound where the sand fox was hiding, and Xie Xiaoshuai and Duan Ge were being shot at so intensely that they didn't dare to stop for even a moment, let alone return fire. The small mound was slowly being flattened, and soon it would only be able to provide cover for one person lying down. Before long, this small mound would become history, and the sand fox would lose its cover.
The crisis is getting closer and closer to Sha Hu, and they have no way out at this time. Several jeeps appeared not far from them, but none of them were seen, these were sent by General Jeff to find Sha Hu, the government army was stunned by the fierce battle scene, it's too crazy.
Two people kept reversing and shifting, what was happening had nothing to do with them, nearly two hundred people more than half of whom were holding guns crazily shooting at a small mound, the other half of whose firepower was all attracted by these two.
The heavy machine gunner on the jeep was ordered to fire at the two hundred or so people, and the power of several heavy machine guns was not in doubt. Anti-government armed members fell down in a large area, and the rest also lay down to avoid the machine gun sweep.
The crisis of the desert fox squad was temporarily alleviated, and Xie Xiaoshuai and Duan Ge panted heavily, hiding behind a small sand dune to catch their breath. The anti-government armed members who were suddenly attacked reacted quickly, dividing some people to counterattack the government army, these people's marksmanship was very accurate, and the government army was killed in a few shots.
Taking a deep breath, Xie Xiaoshuai and Duan Ge seized the opportunity to get up and shoot. The fighting power of Sha Hu was finally fully exerted. Several people opened fire, hitting the target, and put down twenty or thirty opponents.
Xiao Shuai's main weapon ran out of ammo, he took down the MP5, cocked it and prepared to pull the trigger. At this moment, a bullet seemed to know Xiao Shuai's jump trajectory, just as he jumped out from behind the small hill, the bullet entered his chest and flew out from his back.
Blood flowed from Xie Xiaoshuai's mouth and nose, and Xie Xiaoshuai's eyes went dark as he slowly lost consciousness.
Big foot.
"Captain."
Duan Ge and several others saw Xie Xiaoshuai get shot, their eyes turned red, and they loudly shouted for Xie Xiaoshuai. In response to them, Xie Xiaoshuai convulsed a few times, his head tilted to one side, and he lost all movement.
Opening his eyes, everything in front of him was blurry, his head felt heavy and his whole body was weak, with a piercing pain in his chest. This was Xiaoshuai's first feeling after waking up.
"You're awake? Don't move, it will affect the wound healing." Duan Ge saw Xie Xiao Shuai wake up and was about to get up, so he quickly pressed him down.
"Where is this?" Xie Xiaoshuai asked weakly.
"This is the headquarters hospital of the peacekeeping troops."
"How did I end up here?" Xie Xiaoshuai struggled to open his eyes, but his eyelids felt like they were filled with lead and he couldn't open them no matter what. He lost consciousness again in an instant.
Duan Ge, who was just about to answer, saw Xie Xiao Shuai fall into a coma again and sighed: "Fortunately, he's woken up before, so let him sleep well now." He covered Xie Xiao Shuai with the quilt and left the room.
Xie Xiaoshuai slept for two days, and when he regained consciousness this time, his spirit was much better. When he opened his eyes, the hazy feeling was gone, and he saw Liu Yuxin watching over him, her head lowered as she dozed off from exhaustion.
"Water." Xie Xiaoshuai's weak voice squeezed out of his throat that was about to catch fire.
Upon hearing Xie Xiao Shuai's voice, Liu Yu Xin let out a sound of surprise and hastily took over the water cup to feed him a small mouthful. As a doctor, she knew that when a patient first comes to, they can't drink too much water, only enough to moisten their throat.
After drinking water, Xiao Shuai felt much better and gradually gained strength in his body.
"You've finally woken up, you almost scared us to death." Liu Yuxin said with a hint of resentment.
"Sorry, I made you guys worry." Xie Xiao Shuai felt a bit apologetic, knowing that his brothers were worried about him.
Liu Yuxin helped Xie Xiaoshuai up and went out to tell the members of Sha Huo that Xie Xiaoshuai had woken up. Upon receiving the news, several people rushed into the room in a flurry, speaking in a cacophony of voices.
Through several people's accounts, Xie Xiaoshuai roughly understood the beginning and end of the matter.
That day, after Xie Xiaoshuai was shot, everyone thought Xie Xiaoshuai was dead and was very sad, preparing to fight the pursuing troops to the death. Just then, General Jeff's second search party arrived, he saw that the first search party had gone for a long time without any news coming back, guessing that they had encountered some trouble. This second search party had at least 500 people, and after a bloody battle with the anti-government armed forces, although they annihilated all of those people, the government army paid a heavy price, with two-thirds of their troops killed in action.
Liu Yuxin, who was crying loudly, ran to the front of Xie Xiaoshuai and found that Xie Xiaoshuai still had a breath. She quickly implemented first aid, simply bandaging him up. Sha Huo borrowed a car from General Jeff and took Xie Xiaoshuai back to the hospital at the headquarters of the peacekeeping force. Xie Xiaoshuai had suffered a penetrating wound, but there was no bullet in his body. However, it had indeed grazed his heart. If Xie Xiaoshuai had been sent to the hospital half an hour later, he would have died from excessive blood loss. After surgery, he fell into a coma for three days. His brothers took turns guarding him. The first time he woke up was when Duan Ge was there. Several people were very happy to hear that he had woken up and put down the stone in their hearts.
Xie Xiaoshuai listened and felt that he was really lucky to have kept his life. In his heart, he cursed the idiot who fired the shot, it was like a blind cat hitting a dead mouse, the bullet seemed to have eyes of its own, and he himself didn't dare say that his marksmanship could be good to that extent. It's true what they say, if you're always by the river, you can't avoid getting your shoes wet, no matter how good your personal abilities are or how strong your military qualities are, this kind of unexpected disaster can never be avoided, those who survive on the battlefield are all people with great luck.
Xie Xiaoshuai's injury has been well controlled and basically healed after lying in bed for half a month, and he can now get out of bed and move around. He feels uncomfortable all over his body, having slept for more than half a month, which made his whole body sore and stiff, and he doesn't want to stay in bed for another moment.
That day, Xie Xiaoshuai slowly walked out with the handrail and met the highest person in charge of the peacekeeping force who came to visit him. The two sat down on a chair in the hall, chatted for a while, and after the leader told Xie Xiaoshuai a piece of news, he stood up and bid farewell.
The content of the message is: The government army of the country successfully eliminated the anti-government armed forces, and in the end, it was all thanks to the beheading operation of the desert foxes. The anti-government armed forces, who had lost their core leaders, rushed out of the valley like crazy and clashed head-on with the government army, ultimately leading to the victory of the government army. The leader of the country's government is very grateful for the help provided by the Desert Fox team, and now that the government has a firm grip on power, it is preparing to develop its economy and will list China as its most reliable partner. The high-level leaders at home are very satisfied with the performance of the Desert Fox team, but also regret that Xie Xiaoshuai was injured. Given the poor medical conditions here, which are not conducive to Xie Xiaoshuai's recovery from his injuries, the leader personally ordered the Desert Fox team to end their peacekeeping mission ahead of schedule and return home, so that Xie Xiaoshuai can focus on recovering from his injuries.
Xie Xiaoshuai was surprised and delighted, he himself was actually noticed by the high-level leader, it seems that the Sha Hu Xiao team's commotion is quite big, at the same time feeling warm about the leader's concern for his injury.
The original 10-month peacekeeping mission ended three months ahead of schedule, and the members of the Sha Fox team were thrilled that they no longer had to stay in this godforsaken place. Several people discussed it and decided that after returning home, they must make up for the hardships they suffered over the past few months by eating all kinds of delicious food.
