On the top of the mountain, within the test area, a fierce battle was also going on.
Lawrence had long wanted to get rid of the Americans, so in the past few years, he had been recruiting troops secretly, and successfully arranged a team of more than thirty people on a small island near his future territory.
This group of people were also mercenaries, but Lawrence bought them out for three years and raised them on a nearby island.
After he and Cheng Yu separated before, he immediately contacted those people using his satellite phone that was not turned on often.
These people acted really quickly and arrived here in only fifteen minutes. With Lawrence's men working together internally and externally, they quickly killed Andre's men on the mountain road and rushed to the top of the mountain as quickly as possible.
Lawrence originally thought that Andre's gang had been on this island for seven or eight years. Although they were all brave and good at fighting back then, their long-term comfortable life had long since made these people no longer as brave as they used to be.
Although there are only about thirty people on our side who are good at fighting, there are thirty or forty other subordinates. These people have long been used as cannon fodder by Lawrence, and they can resist for a while.
With the strength of the more than thirty mercenaries, Lawrence believed that he would definitely be able to defeat Andre and others who had been comfortable for a long time.
But when the two sides got into a fight, Lawrence discovered that the reality was not what he imagined. Although Andre's group was used to living a comfortable life, they were still very powerful when it came to war.
.
Soon, both sides suffered casualties. Lawrence realized that the group of mercenaries he led was probably no match for Andre's group. Even if they won, it would probably be a miserable victory.
He thought of Cheng Yu.
He knew that since Andre would take the initiative to exchange fire with him, it meant that Andre already knew his purpose and might have eavesdropped on him.
But in this case, he also believes that Andre and others will not attack Cheng Yu easily, and they are not willing to take the risk of being attacked by the British. However, if Cheng Yu is left in the laboratory building, it is likely that he will
He lost his wife and lost his troops.
Even though he knew that it would be very difficult to break into the test area, Lawrence made a prompt decision and asked the leader of his mercenaries to lead a group of people who were originally on the island to find a breakthrough from the rear.
But Lawrence never imagined that Cheng Yu was not a British agent at all. Cheng Yu had only one purpose, and that was to successfully take away Li Dali.
The guy in gray military uniform who was killed by Cheng Yu was the leader of the mercenary group invited by Lawrence. Lawrence had to pay the casualties of several of his men before sending that man into the laboratory building, but he didn't expect that man.
Will die in Cheng Yu's hands.
The two sides were still engaged in the main exchange of fire on the front of the experimental building, but when both sides suffered heavy casualties, both sides began to curb their artillery fire and no longer carried out the fierce attack as they did in the beginning.
Time passed minute by minute, and for a full twenty minutes, Lawrence could not wait for the person who entered the laboratory building to bring Cheng Yu and Li Dali out.
Even the people sent to pick him up later did not receive any news, let alone seeing the person coming back.
He realized that something might have happened to that person.
Two people were sent out again. This time, the two people went around to the rear smoothly. After all, the exchange of fire between the two sides was no longer as intensive as before. After the two people went around to the rear, they quickly discovered the bodies of their companions.
.
Although they did not climb up to the rooftop again, how could these two people not understand based on the few corpses below that the person who broke into the experimental building must also be dead.
After receiving the news, Lawrence's face quickly darkened. He began to realize that the situation was not good, and began to have doubts about Cheng Yu.
After all, Cheng Yu himself is also a very powerful person. Even with his marksmanship and skill, no one on the entire island can be his opponent one on one. Lawrence's strength against Peng Bo is still
Very understanding.
Moreover, Lawrence knew very well that Peng Bo was not dead. He kept Peng Bo with some thoughts, hoping that Peng Bo might become his internal agent inside the laboratory building. Even if Peng Bo was seriously injured, he could have some influence on Peng Bo.
Lawrence, who knew enough, still believed that as long as Peng Bo was alive, he would still be able to help him open a gap from inside the laboratory building in the event of an emergency.
But now, even Peng Bo has no news.
Lawrence took a gloomy look, raised his hand and fired two shots, and then quickly gave an order to his men - retreat!
In fact, attacking the experimental building was a helpless move. Lawrence originally wanted to lead his own troops, enter the experimental building before Andre and others could react, and then quickly kill most of the opponents and obtain
Control of the laboratory building.
As long as he controls the experimental building and has those mortars in hand, Lawrence believes that he will definitely win tonight.
But as soon as he brought his people up, he was violently attacked by Andre and others. He had to try to storm the experimental building, but he still hadn't done so for more than 20 minutes, so the chance was slim.
Lawrence didn't quite understand why Andre hadn't taken out those mortars after he had taken so long to attack the experimental building.
Once the mortar was in hand, Lawrence, who was outside the experimental building, had almost no power to fight back.
The only explanation is that Andre and others suffered heavy casualties from the beginning, leaving him with no time to separate, but this seems unjustifiable. After all, the attack started from Andre, and with sufficient preparation, there should not be too many casualties.
yes.
How did Lawrence know that Andre had already sent manpower as soon as the firefight with him started? He wanted to go to the gun store in the basement to take out those mortars. Even just one or two of them would be enough to quickly change the situation of the firefight.
.
But the person he initially sent died in the hands of the person sent in by Cheng Yu and Lawrence before they had time to take out the mortar.
Then two more people were sent, and they brought a mortar.
At that time, Andre thought he had a winning chance, so he hid the mortar behind the door and tried to launch an attack by surprise, so as to achieve maximum effect.
Unexpectedly, after the cannonball was filled in, it was not fired at all, but directly exploded.
As a result, the two men operating the mortar were killed on the spot, and Andre himself was blinded in one eye.
The most critical thing is that the mortar is so large that it cannot be transported out through the secret door behind the stairs. There is also a lifting platform in the gun store, and the mortar must be transported in and out through that lifting platform.
on the ground.
The mortar that exploded directly destroyed the lifting platform, which made Andre unable to transport the second mortar to the ground.
Of course, he was also actively thinking of ways. He personally led a few people to block the door, and set up two snipers on the second floor to confront the mercenaries brought by Lawrence.
The remaining few people were sent to the secret door behind the stairs. They wanted to expand the secret door so that they could have a chance to transport the mortars to the ground.
This is also the reason why Andre's firepower is no longer as fierce as it was at first. He is still waiting, waiting for the other people under his command to catch up from the dormitory area below, attacking from above and below. Only Lawrence and his gang are left.
A dead end.
But at this time, both Lawrence and Andre heard the fierce exchange of fire coming from the bottom of the mountain, and the sound of these exchanges of fire quickly became sparse. Both of them, with enough experience, judged that the two sides fighting below were
The difference in strength was obviously too great. On the one hand, they were defeated quickly, which caused the gunfire to change from dense to sparse in less than half a minute.
However, neither of them could have imagined that there were only two people on one side of the firefight. These two people actually defeated the team of at least thirty people below, and only about ten people were left in an instant.
The gunshots below were still ringing continuously. Lawrence knew that this meant that his men could not come up to form a pincer attack for the time being. However, the people who went to smash the wall behind the stairs did not have a very obvious effect and were still struggling.
As the situation continues, the situation becomes increasingly stalemate.
Lawrence was very surprised. Since the fire below had already begun, and the winner was quickly determined, he did not believe that his few remaining men could severely injure Andre's men in the dormitory.
According to normal circumstances, the people in Lawrence should have been killed quickly. Then, the people in Lawrence must have known what happened on the top of the mountain and would have rushed up the mountain to help.
Because of this, Lawrence had just given the order to retreat. He had no choice but to let those people continue to attack fiercely. If he could not kill these people in the laboratory building before the group of people from the bottom of the mountain came up, once they formed a pincer attack,
If you lose the momentum, you will have no chance at all.
However, Andre had the same idea as him, and he fought more and more cautiously, which gave Lawrence no chance. He fired countless shots in vain and paid the price of two people's death, but he failed to make any progress.
But at this time, both Lawrence and Andre had doubts, because no reinforcements came from the bottom of the mountain.
This shows that in the firefight near the mountainside, Andre's men were actually at a disadvantage and were suppressed, which prevented them from rushing to the rescue of Andre on the top of the mountain.
But who can make Andre's men suffer?
Lawrence was puzzled.
Could it be that the British behind Cheng Yu sent troops here?
This does not seem possible at all. After all, British troops appeared in the Falklands area. This is a very sensitive incident. If not careful, it will cause a war between Argentina and the United Kingdom.
After thinking hard, Lawrence did not dare to give up the position here easily and go down the mountain. If he was caught by Andre's men on the way down, he would die without knowing how.
Suddenly, Lawrence thought of a possibility, even if the possibility was slim...
British!
This is impossible!
So, could it be Cheng Yu?
If it were Cheng Yu, with his marksmanship and skill, although it would be an exaggeration to kill more than a dozen of Andre's men in an instant, it is not completely impossible!
If Andre's men were not wary of Cheng Yu at first, and Cheng Yu attacked them unexpectedly, the possibility of killing more than a dozen people by sweeping them out with two shuttles still existed.
Especially Cheng Yu's marksmanship, which Lawrence had witnessed with his own eyes, must be described as miraculous.
Once such a thought appeared in his mind, Lawrence couldn't bear it anymore. If Cheng Yu had run away, then everything he was doing now would be meaningless.
"Andre, is Mr. Cheng in your hands?"
Lawrence finally shouted.
Andre was stunned, it's already this time, Lawrence, you are still thinking about Cheng Yu? You two are really in love!
"You'd better care more about yourself! At this time, do you still care about Mr. Cheng's life and death? Let me tell you, Mr. Cheng and I have reached an agreement. If I kill you, he will also support me.
If you support me like that, there is no difference between us at all to him. All the British want is profit!"
"You idiot!" Lawrence yelled angrily. When he heard Andre's words, he completely went berserk. Regardless of whether the firefight below was caused by Cheng Yu, as long as what Andre said was true, then Cheng Yu
There is nothing left to believe at all.
Andre was right. To the British, it didn't matter whether Lawrence or Andre was there. What they wanted was the politician Cindy and the experimental results on this island.
"You also heard the firefight at the bottom of the mountain. Do you think all your people are still alive?" Lawrence asked again.
Andre also became angry: "Lawrence, you old guy, I really underestimated you. Not only did you hide a group of mercenaries, but you also divided your troops into two groups. On the one hand, you were holding me back here, and on the other hand, you were ambushing me at the foot of the mountain.
My other men. Let me tell you, if I lose this place, I will kill Cheng Yu, and then we will die together!"
Lawrence suddenly felt very tired, and he said helplessly: "I suggest that we cease fire first, and you go and see if Mr. Cheng is still there! I suspect that the firefight at the foot of the mountain was basically the one-sided killing of you by that man named Cheng.
His subordinates..."
"Hahahaha, Lawrence, do you think I am an idiot? No matter how strong Mr. Cheng is, he is only one person after all. He can stop so many of my men by himself? Besides, he is in the laboratory building and cannot get out at all!
"
"I'm not afraid to tell you that just now I sent people to attack from the rear, but now all my people are dead inside. If they weren't killed by your people, it was Cheng Yu who killed them. And Cheng Yu,
He probably also escaped from the rear..."
When Andre heard this, he was also stunned...
Escaped? How is that possible!
"Did any of you notice anyone coming in the building just now?"
All of Andre's men shook their heads, and Andre's heart sank.
There are two possibilities for this. One is that Lawrence is talking nonsense and no one has invaded at all.
But there is another possibility, that is, someone invaded, and found that the people he invaded died in his hands, and that person did not appear, which means that person has also died inside.
After ruling out the possibility of both parties perishing together, there is only one possibility: that person died in the hands of Cheng Yu, or there is a very slight possibility that Li Dali or those experimental subjects killed that person.
But the possibility is obviously almost zero.
"You, go to the top of the building and see what's going on..." Andre sent one of his men, who quickly ran to the stairs, and soon turned back.
Because that person had already seen the dead gray military uniform and several people on his side at the fire escape.
After learning the exact news, Andre went to his office in person. There was no one in the office...
The door was locked, which meant that Cheng Yu could not get out through the door.
Outside the window were the two sides fighting each other. The windows had been beaten to pieces, and it was impossible for Cheng Yu to leave from this direction.
Where did this guy go? How did he leave? - Andre suddenly felt that he had encountered a supernatural event? He couldn't even imagine the way Cheng Yu left.
Could it be that Cheng Yu really got into trouble with his men under the mountain? Moreover, he killed most of the people below him by himself?
Forcing himself to calm down, Andre thought this was ridiculous, but he also felt that it was not completely impossible.
He returned to the gate and shouted loudly: "Cheng Yu is indeed missing!"
"Cease fire!" Lawrence roared, ordering his men to stop shooting, and also asked Andre to make the same deployment.
"Cease fire!" Andre seemed to see Lawrence's sincerity and gave the same order.
"Andre, something happened! It seems that Cheng Yu may not be what he said. He may have another purpose in coming to the future territory..." Although Lawrence didn't know Cheng Yu's true identity, at this time,
It was impossible for him not to guess that Cheng Yu had other motives.
Andre made a quick judgment: "You ask Cindy for details. I will unblock the signal, call the people below, and ask them who the person they were fighting with just now is!"
Lawrence agreed and quickly ordered his men to go down and look for Cindy.
Cindy had also collapsed at this time. She guessed that Cheng Yu might take action tonight, so she quickly drank too much, thinking that if she drank too much, even if something went wrong, she would be able to ignore Lawrence.
Clear yourself.
But the fierce exchange of fire up and down had already woken up Cindy. She ran out and saw that there were continuous gunfire from the top of the mountain and below. Cindy's face turned pale and she knew something was wrong.
She made a decisive decision and took the gun without hesitation and ran down the mountain.
Cheng Yu, Cheng Yu, why did you make such a big fuss? Aren't you just trying to save someone? Can't you just take someone away secretly?
While complaining about Cheng Yu in her heart, Cindy hurriedly ran into the jungle.
At this time, she would not dare to go down the only road on the mountain. It would be no different from seeking death.
Seeing someone walking around on the road, Cindy tried her best to avoid it, but still couldn't. Finally, she was discovered, and five or six guns were pointed at her. Although she also had a gun in her hand, she was still very nervous.
The wise man chose to surrender.
The people who captured her were of course Andre's men.
The people sent down by Lawrence soon arrived at the white house, but did not see Cindy.
When the two men saw that the situation was getting worse and worse, they didn't want to go up the mountain anymore, so they called Lawrence and told him that Cindy had run away.
Lawrence was furious: "Run away? This place is surrounded by the sea, where the hell can you run away?"
And Andre had also received the news at this moment. The person fighting with his men below was indeed Cheng Yu.
Those people spoke categorically, saying that Cheng Yu single-handedly killed at least a dozen of their brothers with superb marksmanship.
Andre was furious, but fortunately there was good news, they caught Cindy.
