Chapter Thirty-Eight: Array Destroyed

  Two people quickly dashed through, completely disregarding the pain of the rainforest's vines slapping against their faces. In the pitch-black night, they leapt forward like agile monkeys. Within a distance of less than 500 meters behind them, a team of special forces was slowly closing in on the two, after all, there was still a gap between them, whether it be physical strength or experience, Team VX was still slightly inferior to the renowned SEALs. Lone Wolf pulled out a hand grenade and ran while pulling out the safety pin, throwing it backwards, although it wouldn't hit the enemy, at least the shockwave from the explosion could slightly hinder their pace, giving the two a bit of time.

  "Zanlang, arrived." The chicken-eyed man said, looking at the GPS in his hand and speaking to the figure in front of him.

  The lone wolf looked up and saw the team members setting up a firing line in the distance, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. The two quickly joined forces with the others and began to counterattack the enemy.

  "Are there casualties?!" Lone Wolf yelled into his headset.

  "Pliers' butt was bitten, the madman's wound is more serious, abdominal through injury, we must retreat immediately to treat him!" Knife reported while shooting and exploding the skull of a vanguard who was closest to the front.

  It seems that the US military has made up its mind to leave us here this time. The lone wolf shot out a long-range shot and muttered to himself. Fortunately, the US military did not prepare anti-aircraft weapons this time, otherwise... Looking at the monkey installing the laser locator behind him, he couldn't help but feel some worry.

  "Mountain Eagle, message received, please respond."

  A rustling sound passed, and the voice of the mountain eagle came from the headphones, "Wolf brother, arrive at the designated target in three minutes".

  Zan Lang heard this and was overjoyed, hastily stating his own requirements, "After reaching the designated airspace, turn on the searchlight for scanning, we have too many enemies!"

  “OK”

  After a brief response, the lone wolf pulled out the last offensive grenade and threw it away. The fierce explosion shook the rainforest, shattering wood and branches flying everywhere. The lone wolf took advantage of the chaos to pull up his chicken eye and retreat backwards, at which point the Mountain Eagle's Mi-24 helicopter had already appeared in sight.

  "Take cover!" With the order, everyone rushed to lie down. At this time, the Mi-24 helicopter's suspended rocket pods began to wreak havoc. One by one, rockets whizzed towards the battlefield.

  The helicopter was professional at attacking infantry, and the enemy had no heavy firepower, so the battle situation suddenly became one-sided. The whistling shrapnel mixed with splintered wood shot mercilessly into the enemy's body, taking advantage of this opportunity, Qianzi and others quickly set up several broadsword anti-infantry mines in coordination with each other. Two minutes later, the Mountain Eagle fired all its rockets and then steadily landed at the designated landing point indicated by the laser pointer.

  "Boarding!" With a loud order from the Lone Wolf, the wounded Crazy and Pliers climbed aboard first. The AK brothers also arrived, with Old A lying down at the gunner's position of the Gatling machine gun mounted on the outside of the cabin to make up for the lack of firepower. A spinning fire snake swept into the rainforest, suppressing the enemy so much that they couldn't lift their heads. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the others quickly boarded the plane.

  The wolf had just pushed the rattlesnake up when a dull thud came from behind.

  No! The remaining wolf was startled, it's the sound of a sniper rifle! Immediately afterwards, the Rattlesnake that was about to climb into the cockpit fell down!

  "Rattlesnake!" The lone wolf let out a loud roar and quickly jumped down, half of his body in the muddy ground. The rattlesnake's forehead had already exploded, its face completely disfigured. A small bullet hole at the back of its head slowly oozed out red blood and white brain matter. The lone wolf blinked hard, picked up the corpse, and stuffed it into the cockpit. At this time, the wild boar had already snatched the Gatling gun from Old A's hands and was fiercely suppressing the sniper's hiding spot. Hua Tuo was somewhat flustered as he pulled out a morphine injection to administer to his brother, but when he saw the disfigured corpse, the syringe in his hand slowly slipped away.

  Hua Tuo suddenly picked up the M249 dropped by the wild boar and fired a string of fire snakes in the direction of the enemy, "Return my brother to me!" Hua Tuo's angry roar was still faintly audible even under the roar of the helicopter blades. The Lone Wolf quickly hugged Hua Tuo, who was on the verge of going crazy, and signaled the Mountain Eagle to take off.

  The UH-24 quickly took off, leaving behind a group of SEALs suppressed in the jungle, staring fiercely at the departing helicopter. A bloody smell gradually spread throughout the cabin, and Rattlesnake's body lay motionless on the small floor, everyone's eyes were bloodshot and staring silently at the corpse.

  In the oppressive atmosphere, Zhan Lang began to seriously reflect on the war for the first time. The first loss of a teammate made him realize that war was not a game, and the second loss made him deeply feel the helplessness of war.

  Maybe only new recruits would think war is an exciting thing...

  Unconsciously, the VX squad underwent a qualitative change due to the stimulation of the teammate's death, and everyone began to take every war seriously, thus invisibly increasing their combat effectiveness.

  Mi-24 flew over the pitch-black night sky and finally landed at an unfamiliar base two hours later.

  Down from the driver's cabin, Shan Ying casually threw away the helmet in his hand and said. "Head, we still have a long way to go somewhere else later. The body of the Rattlesnake can be left here, someone will take care of everything, and the body of Accurstar will also be helped by someone to transport back to the Golden Triangle, mourn...". After finishing speaking, Shan Ying patted the shoulder of his superior who was one head taller than himself and walked towards the garage. As for Can Lang, everyone admired him very much. Although he is currently the youngest in the team, it has to be admitted that he has a great talent for war, just like a born warrior.

  Watching the wild boar and chicken, the madman with a wounded belly ran to the infirmary. Only then did the Lone Wolf remember that there was still a bullet stuck in his abdominal muscles. He quickly took off his bulletproof vest to check, and his undershirt had already been soaked through by the blood flowing out. The Lone Wolf was startled and hurriedly examined himself carefully, seeing only a slightly bleeding wound. The Lone Wolf let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was just that he had delayed for too long, but for now, he wouldn't die yet.

  Biting back the excruciating pain caused by every step, the wounded wolf slowly made his way to the infirmary, called over a military doctor to take a look at the wound, and only after confirming that it was not serious did he lie down on the bed and let the doctor remove the bullet. As the doctor tossed the bullet into the tray with a clang, the cramping pain in his abdomen finally subsided.

  A simple two-stitch suture closed the wound, and the wounded wolf stood up, ignoring the military doctor's advice, and walked into the operating room.

  Feng's injury is more serious, the bullet grazed the edge of his stomach and passed through, fortunately without damaging his spinal cord. However, it's impossible for him to continue fighting in the short term, so far, there are only nine people left with combat effectiveness in Team VX.

  Found the mountain eagle hiding outside smoking, and the remaining tasks were inquired by the residual wolf.

  "Don't worry, the next task won't require us to venture into the rainforest again. A month from now, in Chiang Mai, Thailand, there's a large-scale drug transaction taking place. The buyer is someone from our hometown, and Wolf Head wants both the drugs and the US dollars, but we get to keep them for ourselves - he just wants the person buying the drugs. We'll know more about it once we arrive at Wolf Head's place." Shan Ying mumbled an explanation to Can Lang with a Marlboro cigarette in his mouth.

  Keeping a slight distance from the second-hand smoke, Lang Hu squeezed his nose and continued to ask, "What is this place? Isn't Wolf Head here?"

  The mountain eagle was taken aback, "I thought you knew, this place is a base of the 'Chinese Camp', let them rest and recover here. Wolf Head is not here, we'll drive there in a while."

  An hour later, after confirming that the madman was not seriously injured, Mountain Eagle drove with Canine to a 50-kilometer-away UN peacekeeping force camp. Wolf Head still wore that eerie blue helmet, which made Canine look at him with disdain, never heard of mercenaries participating in peacekeeping...

  "I've heard about the incident with Accurassy and Rattlesnake. As captain, you must control your emotions. War always results in casualties." In the office, Wolf Head took a deep drag on his thick cigar and solemnly consoled the wounded wolf across from him.

  "They died in the hands of the US dollar, a group of young people who had just come of age threw themselves into this powder keg for a handful of US dollars that they didn't even need, injured, killed... what did we get in return except for the increasing numbers in our bank accounts?!" Lang Hu shouted emotionally at his instructor.

  In people's eyes, the VX squad was just a group of pitiful child soldiers who weren't worth sympathizing with. Who would truly care about their lives and deaths?

  Lang Tou'er's hand trembled slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything and threw away the blue helmet on his head, walking out of the office alone.
