Volume 10 Beihai Dragon Palace Chapter 101 Asking for Help
In an unknown tropical jungle, the humidity in the air has been saturated, and the water vapor has turned into mist, steaming in the high temperature of more than 30 degrees. Except for the occasional chirping of birds and apes, there are no other sounds, and there is nothing but rot in the air. In addition to the smell of plants, it was also filled with a corpse odor and a vague smell of blood.
This is a killing field full of death, and even the wild animals in the jungle avoid it.
Ling Hao was wearing a jungle camouflage combat uniform, with oil paint on his face, and an AUG assault rifle in his hand. His eyes were full of indifference but without the slightest killing intent. He was like a rock entangled in a big tree. Among the vines below, a thick leech clung to the back of his hand like a piece of mud. Its body continued to grow. Ling Hao seemed not to notice, but stretched out his hand to gently grab a leech from the vine. The stick insect, which was only ten centimeters long, was slowly stuffed into the mouth and chewed.
Suddenly, there was a sound of water, and a dozen armed rebels from a certain country walked through the dense forest, wading through the water up to their ankles and walking towards this side. These people were well-trained, and except for the sound of footsteps, there was no one. He spoke as if he was afraid of being discovered.
Ling Hao had a shiny steel wire in his hand. After everyone passed by him, the rebel who was at the rear guarding the rear was his target.
The rebel was hanging far behind the team, observing the surroundings vigilantly. He was definitely an experienced veteran. When he passed by a vine, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck. He knew that the sickle of death had been swung at him. He wanted to ask for help, but the steel wire tightened instantly and cut deeply into his flesh. Not to mention that he couldn't make any sound at all in his throat, even trying to breathe was impossible. Just like that, it took less than 10 seconds. In a moment, the rebel's throat was strangled and he fell limply to the ground. Ling Hao neatly stuffed the body into the vines and pulled off the leech on the back of his hand. There was still no trace of ferocity or murderous intent in his eyes. , but the coldness was even worse than before. He put the gun on his back and chased the group of rebels who passed by just now.
The jungle was like a man-eating beast. Before they knew it, a dozen rebels were wiped out silently, without even a shot being fired.
In an open space two kilometers away, there is a temporary camp. A six-man special operations team protects more than 20 Chinese civilians to rest here. These civilians are in a very embarrassed state, some have been injured, and their eyes are full of terror. , sitting on the ground without any scruples, panting, his body still shaking.
A special operations team member looked at his watch and said: "We have to move on in 5 minutes. Why hasn't the captain come back yet? Is the tail behind him difficult to deal with?"
An older special operations team member on the side showed a relaxed smile, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, I have been on missions with the captain more than ten times, and he always said he would be back in a few minutes. Come back in a few minutes and haven't been late once, so just wait patiently." After that, he leaned into the ear of the young team member and said: "Pay attention to your emotions. Anxiety and fear are poisons and can be contagious. Have confidence in the captain. Be careful, don't scare the civilians."
Just as he was talking, a figure walked out of the forest quietly without any warning. The young team member subconsciously raised the muzzle of the gun. A strong hand grabbed the barrel of the gun and forced it to point upward: "You
You're not a new recruit anymore, are you? If you point a gun at me again, I'll twist your head off." Ling Hao's cold eyes made the young team members tremble, and they quickly put away their guns. The others relaxed when they saw him coming back.
tone.
Ling Hao took out a lot of seized dry food, canned water and bottled water from his backpack and distributed them to the weak civilians. He then used the key to unscrew a can of lunch meat and scooped out the food in large chunks with a spoon.
He sat down next to the tree and the other team members gathered around him.
Ling Hao took out several armbands from his pocket and threw them on the ground. The armband was very special, with a red scorpion on it.
"Red Scorpion? Why do these scum appear here?" Several team members were either shocked or looked solemn, but they all held the guns in their hands tighter.
"Red Scorpion" is a well-known mercenary organization in the world. They can be found in many places where armed conflicts occur. Generally, mercenary organizations are very low-key, but this "Red Scorpion" mercenary group not only acts in a high-profile manner, but also keeps a low profile.
Even standard military uniforms and armbands are designed and distributed to the team members, and they also distribute advertisements all over the world and take orders everywhere. Of course, the main reason why they are famous is not because of this, but because of their style of doing things, which is without any
There is no bottom line in principle, and they can do anything. These people are just a bunch of out-and-out scum and butchers.
It's not surprising that they appear here. This small, poor country in the tropics has frequent regime changes. The entire country is almost in the hands of drug lords. The national army is not as well-equipped as the drug lords' private armed forces. Once these people are allowed to
If the drug lords are dissatisfied, the private armed forces will immediately turn into rebels and quickly overthrow the regime. At this time, the most unlucky ones are the foreign companies that invest here, and they will basically be robbed, waiting for these drug lords to take advantage of them.
If the benefits are sufficient, they will retreat behind the scenes, push a puppet out to conduct a farce-like democratic election, and then become the so-called legitimate president, but in fact they are just their agents on the surface.
This is the case this time. As soon as there was turmoil in this small country, China began to evacuate its citizens. Most of the Chinese companies and citizens had left safely, except for a mine in the rainforest area and a dozen Chinese technology
The personnel and their families were trapped. The task assigned to Ling Hao's team was to rescue them one by one, then walk through more than 30 kilometers of jungle to the nearest open space in the rainforest where a helicopter could land, and board an amphibious landing ship.
of large transport helicopters for evacuation.
Ling Hao said while eating: "There are not just a group of people chasing us, there are rebels and people from the 'Red Scorpions'. Originally, I killed a group of more than ten rebels and was about to catch up and join you."
, but found that four guys are already approaching you. These guys are very skilled. It took me a lot of effort to kill them, but they also brought a lot of supplies. We just happened to be short of food. Let’s eat quickly and continue walking.
, there will be pursuers coming from behind. 'Iron Hammer', you take 'Bell' and go behind us to lay a few trip mines as a warning. 'Erha', you go to the front to explore the way, we will follow the marks you left.
Walk."
After Ling Hao handed over the mission, the older special operations team member took the younger one to lay mines. The short and energetic team member directly put his equipment on his back and headed forward.
Soon, the 5 minutes ended and the team set off again. This is a rainforest, the environment is harsh, and the roads are difficult to travel. Even for special forces, marching is not an easy task, let alone ordinary civilians. They stumbled along the way and their physical strength deteriorated.
I was already overdrawn and had to stop and rest every few kilometers.
A "boom" explosion caused Ling Hao and the others who had just stopped to rest to stand up from the ground. It was a trip mine they had deployed behind them as a warning, indicating that the pursuers were only one kilometer away from them.
Ling Hao's eyes turned cold again, and he ordered in a calm tone: "'Bamboo Rod', 'Hedgehog', 'Flint', the three of you take the foreigners and leave quickly, 'Iron Hammer' and 'Bell' stay behind to break up with me.
." The order was brief and unquestionable. They are one of the most powerful special forces units in the world, with the ability and confidence to win under any circumstances. The three people who led the expatriates away distributed some ammunition to their companions who were left behind.
Then Ling Hao led the two of them into the dense forest behind them.
The explosion of the directional mines made people shudder. Seven or eight mutilated corpses of rebels were already lying on the ground. "Iron Hammer" was wiping his "Tiger Tooth Saber" with leaves, while "Bell" was still holding a
The rebels pinned themselves to the ground and stabbed the opponent one after another, completely ignoring that the person had already expired.
Ling Hao said while arranging his equipment: "Hurry up and leave. The movement just now will definitely attract the 'Red Scorpions'. We must try our best to avoid a head-on collision with them." The three of them immediately left the battlefield and disappeared into the dense forest.
among.
Less than five minutes later, a crisp sound of a metal reed resounded in the dense forest. Ling Hao cursed in his heart and suddenly threw his body towards the roots of a big tree next to him. However, another one was even closer to the big tree.
The nearest figure had already jumped in front of him, it was the thin newcomer "Ling Dang". With a "bang", the air wave generated by the explosion of "Thunder" blew both "Ling Dang" and Ling Hao away, until
After flying several meters away, he fell heavily to the ground. Ling Hao felt that his mind was completely blank for a moment, and his ears were buzzing. However, long-term rigorous training made him know what he should do now, and he almost reflexively
He crawled on the ground, and at the same time, there was a loud sound of gunfire, and several bullets flew past his scalp, even knocking off a lock of his hair. He lay on the ground and turned to look in the direction of the "hammer", only to see that
Seeing that he was hiding behind a big tree, he fired back, but he didn't seem to be injured.
Ling Hao pulled the "bell" on the side again. When he saw the situation of the other party, his heart suddenly went cold. This young special operations team member was covered with shrapnel wounds, his sternum was dented, and he kept talking.
There was blood and foam on the ground, and it seemed that there was no way to save him.
Reality is different from film and television works. There are only a very small number of "loose-fire land mines" that are exploded by raising your feet. Most of them are "pressure-fire" or "trip-fire" types, and the fragmentation and shock wave damage of modern land mines is 360
It is fully covered, and there is no use lying down. When you hear the sound of the "fire reed" bouncing, the only way to reduce casualties is to have one person jump on it and bear all the damage from the mine explosion with his own body, sacrificing one person to save it.
But this is not a formula calculation. Everyone has only one life. How many people can cover the mines with their chests? "Bell" rushed to the mines regardless of his own life, and exchanged his own life for it.
Ling Hao's life.
Ling Hao's eyes were red, and even the tears he shed were red. His eyes were about to burst. He roared angrily, picked up the gun on the ground and opened fire into the forest. The enemy's tactics were very professional, and it was a standard ambush method. It was definitely
There is no doubt that the "Red Scorpion" group of mercenaries. Judging from the sound of gunshots, there are four people on the other side, but Ling Hao knows that there must be a sniper hiding in the distance, who can give him and "Iron Hammer" a fatal blow at any time.
.
The situation is very unfavorable now, but Ling Hao is not afraid. He is very confident in his team. No special forces in the world can surpass him and his team members. Ling Hao listened carefully to the gunshots, and then gently adjusted
The scale on the 3x rifle scope. In the scope, there is only a lush and dense jungle, but Ling Hao knows that there must be an enemy there, shooting at the "Iron Hammer" under perfect concealment.
"Click, click, click." After Ling Hao fired three bursts, one of the four sources of gunfire in the dense forest misfired, followed by the second, and then the third. Ling Hao relied entirely on hearing and experience to fire one after another 500 meters away.
Sniping the opponent makes the opponent feel that he is fighting a top expert, but the "Red Scorpion" is not for nothing. Although his teammates are killed one by one, they never panic or retreat, especially the one who has never fired.
The one-shot sniper is still waiting for the chance to kill with one shot.
There was a muffled sound, and a grenade with a tail of smoke drew an arc and fell towards Ling Hao. There was no other way, Ling Hao could only roll away from the position he had just hidden, "
He had no way to take "Bell" away, so he could only turn over and pull off the soldier's identification tag from his neck. There was an explosion, and "Bell"'s body was thrown away again, but Ling Hao could no longer care about it.
As soon as he left the hiding place, the sniper's gun fired. Ling Hao dodged left and right, but the other party fired three shots in a row but failed to hit him.
The enemy sniper failed to succeed and continued to shoot at Ling Hao, but he forgot that the "Iron Hammer" was holding a "universal machine gun" with a range comparable to his sniper gun. However,
This can't be blamed on him. Unless they need fire suppression, experienced machine gunners generally don't fire in crazy bursts. They mainly shoot in short bursts, which feel no different from rifles. The sniper exposed his position and said, "Iron Hammer"
"The mobile phone gun in his hand finally burst out with fiery tongues of flame, and the sniper was killed. However, in order to hit the opponent, the "Iron Hammer" also exposed his body slightly from behind the big tree, and the last "Red Scorpion" mercenary's gun also fired.
When he heard the distinctive clear gunfire of the enemy's M4, Ling Hao secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good. He could no longer care about the danger, stopped dodging, half-knelt down in the jungle clearing, raised his gun, and started shooting at the enemy's position.
.
This was a rare interactive shooting scene between four people. Bullets criss-crossed in the jungle, and three bodies fell to the ground. Only Ling Hao was panting and still half-kneeling, looking at the blood flowing from his teammate "Iron Hammer"'s body.
It flowed out from under the body.
"No!" Ling Hao suddenly sat up from the bed, his sheets soaked in cold sweat. He hadn't had this dream for a while. Ling Hao glanced at a photo of his comrades on the bookshelf, and there was "Iron Hammer" on it.
and the figure of "Bell". I don't know if the dream blurs the reality, or the reality enters the dream. The scene of many comrades sacrificing before their eyes is always clearly engraved in Ling Hao's mind, and often appears in the dream inadvertently.
It's so real that it makes some old wounds in my heart ache again.
Ling Hao was used to this. He walked into the bathroom and took a shower. Just as he was about to go downstairs to see who had prepared breakfast today and what was there, his phone suddenly rang. Ling Hao didn't even look at the number and answered it directly.
Opposite was an anxious female voice: "Hey, is this Mr. Ling? I'm Emily..."
"Mr. Ling?" Ling Hao still wasn't comfortable with this title, but he did remember that Emily was an assistant next to Annie. She had brown hair and was pretty.
"Mr. Ling, it's bad, something happened to Miss Anne..." Emily cried as she spoke.
"Calm down, tell me slowly what happened." Ling Hao already had an ominous premonition.
"We were in the North Sea. We originally planned to go to Singapore by yacht to attend an exhibition. Because we had plenty of time, we didn't take a plane. Unexpectedly, we encountered several unknown boats just after sailing through the waters of Vietnam's Haiphong Port.
After a group of armed men forcibly boarded our yacht, they ransacked it inside and out. After learning Miss Anne’s identity through her passport, they kidnapped her too!” Emily’s voice was even louder.
I cried dumb.
Ling Hao's face suddenly darkened: "Haiphong Port? It's not those guys who did it again, right? It's caused me trouble again, this time I have to get rid of them completely!"
