"Order!"
After obtaining the equipment, Xu Chen began issuing orders. He tapped the table with the muzzle of his gun to draw everyone's attention, and then said...
"I'll lead one team, Xiao Li will lead one team, and Xiao Wang will lead one team. Xiao Li will go to the energy company, I'll lead one team to the school, and Xiao Wang will lead one team to clear out the terrorists and armed personnel on the retreat route. Did you just memorize the retreat route?"
"clear!"
"Commander Wang, remember not to linger in battle. Just draw their attention and I will come to your aid once the safety of the citizens is ensured."
"Yes, Colonel!"
After the division of labor was completed, Xu Chen led the team to set off, boarding pickup trucks provided by the government forces to begin traversing the combat zone.
"Colonel, roadblock established ahead!"
"Rocket launchers, bring them on! Everyone else, set up your guns!"
Xu Chen picked up the rocket launcher, stepped out of the car window, and fired all the rockets ahead. Although the group broke through the encirclement, the pickup truck had been severely damaged in the previous firefight. Xu Chen quickly led his men out of the vehicle and began to infiltrate buildings, using ropes to traverse rooftops. Several hours later, he finally led his men out of the city.
After stealing a pickup truck from the rebel organization, Xu Chen drove at full speed and finally approached the country's port city late at night.
After getting off the vehicle, Xu Chen extended his divine sense, covering every corner of the city. In a house that resembled a school, he saw Chinese students being held captive together. Their young faces were filled with panic, fear, and helplessness. Several soldiers from the rebel organization were monitoring the school's surveillance room, watching every move on campus.
"It's late at night now, and we're fully equipped. We can move freely even in the dark; they're probably blind," Li Yuan said excitedly. After the day's battle, he had a deeper understanding of his mid-stage Ming Jin strength, and his mindset had shifted from avoiding battle to seeking it. Although Ming Jin cultivators weren't immune to bullets, they were far better off than ordinary soldiers. Despite being shot in the left thigh, he only felt intense pain; his mobility wasn't significantly affected. An ordinary soldier, on the other hand, would have been incapacitated long ago.
“Satellite images from before we came showed that there was a rebel military camp in the southern part of this city, which is also our location.” Wearing night vision goggles, Xu Chen scanned his comrades and emphasized this again.
"Li Yuan! Take two men, go around to the north, sneak into the port and blow up their weapons. Remember to take some for yourself before you blow them up."
"yes!"
"As soon as I hear the explosion, I will rush into the school to rescue the students. Remember, don't linger in the fighting, just make a commotion."
After receiving the order, Li Yuan drove off with two other people, while Xu Chen and the other two disguised themselves and sneaked into the city, quietly waiting outside the monitoring room.
Three hours later, a violent explosion was heard, followed by the deployment of soldiers from the southern military camp to encircle and suppress Li Yuan. Just as Xu Chen was preparing to lead his men into the school, a series of explosions occurred, and the rebels in the military camp began to head towards the port in waves. Most of the rebels in the school were also mobilized, as it was a crucial location for them to receive military aid from a certain country and could not be lost.
"Go in!" Xu Chen threw a grappling hook at the wall, and the group sneaked into the school, found the monitoring room, and after a fierce battle, killed several rebels inside. Then, they slowly approached the students' location under the cover of darkness.
After several stabs, the rebel guards who were holding the students were killed, and the three men rushed into the cell.
"Who are you?!" A teacher shielded the students behind him, looking at Xu Chen and his two companions warily. The students were startled when they saw three unfamiliar armed men barging in.
“Chinese. Li Hua, Qian Hu, you two stay here and protect the students. If anyone breaks in, kill them without mercy.”
"yes!"
"I'm going to support Li Yuan and will be responsible for seizing a means of transportation. Once we get to the outside of the wall, I'll come in to meet you."
After giving his instructions, Xu Chen hurriedly left because he discovered that Li Yuan and the other two were already in trouble.
"Who exactly are you two gentlemen?" the older female teacher asked curiously.
Qian Hu and Li Hua remained silent. Upon seeing their compatriots, the students' fear subsided somewhat, and they began to stare at Qian Hu and Li Hua with curiosity.
Meanwhile, Xu Chen arrived with supplies to provide timely support. The group began to fight and retreat into the city. After finding a minibus, Xu Chen led Li Yuan and the others, turning left and right, and finally stopped outside the school wall.
"Stay alert, I'm going to get the students out."
A few minutes later, Xu Chen entered the detention cell. The students were surrounding Qian Hu and Li Hua, looking them over and discussing them, occasionally throwing out questions that the two could not answer.
"Li Hua, Qian Hu, take the students and let's go!"
Yes. Yes!
After giving his instructions, Xu Chen took the lead and set up a lookout along the retreat route. A dozen minutes later, more than a dozen people boarded the minibus.
Before long, "The rebels have surrounded us!" Li Hua felt a surge of tension as he looked at the rebels in the distance.
Upon hearing this, the students in the car were terrified. They vividly remembered the incident a few days ago where a student who stole from China was beheaded. Were they about to suffer the same fate?
"Get down!" Xu Chen shouted in alarm, and the students all dropped to the ground as the windshield of the car was shattered by bullets. After dodging the gunfire, Li Yuan turned the car around and floored the accelerator, speeding forward. Xu Chen knew he was in trouble. Even if the enemy couldn't catch up, if the bullets damaged the car, wouldn't he have wasted the whole night?
"I'll hold off the rebels behind us, you guys go first! Hurry!" Xu Chen jumped out of the car, wielding an AK-47 and engaging the pursuing rebels in fierce combat. He still had many more AK-47s in his storage bag. He showed no fear in the face of the rebels. The students on the car, however, were unaware of this. They watched helplessly as their country's soldiers jumped off the vehicle to fight for them, tears streaming down their faces. They had already guessed that the people who came to pick them up were Chinese soldiers.
"Soldier, driver, aren't you worried about that person?" A young girl wiped away her tears and looked at Li Yuan, who was smiling, with a strange expression.
Li Yuan quickly turned his head to look at the girl. In fact, everyone was waiting for Li Yuan's explanation. In order to help Boss Xu put on a great show, Li Yuan said in a serious tone: "Even if he dies, he will die for you and for China. He will die a worthy death."
"That soldier, what's that older brother's name?"
"His name is... He'll tell you once you board the private jet home. For now, behave yourself and be vigilant about your surroundings." Everyone wiped away their tears and nervously looked out the window.
A few hours later, Xu Chen ended the battle. As a monster who was immune to firearms, he could slaughter the rebels in one fell swoop even without using spiritual power. After seizing a truck, Xu Chen drove it and followed the minibus.
