Chapter 288 That sniper, he's alive again? Liu Landi's words were like a bucket of ice water, extinguishing Gao Kai's impulsive flames and showing him another path.
Yes, Teacher Su's arrangement must have had a deeper meaning. She's so smart and calculating; how could she not have a backup plan?
If I impulsively go and throw my life away now, that would truly be a betrayal of her plans.
Seeing that Gao Kai had calmed down, Wang Xiaoya asked, "Sister Lan Di, then... what do we do now? Su An... are we really going to just leave her alone?"
Liu Landi remained silent for a moment; of course, she also wanted to know about Su An's safety.
“Of course we should intervene.” She looked at Gao Kai, “but not like you just went to your death. We should approach quietly and observe.”
She picked up a twig from the ground and quickly drew a sketch on the muddy ground.
"The people from Battalion Two will definitely go to Su An's location to take stock of the battle results."
"My plan is for the nine of us to slowly make our way back to the outer edge of that hillside, find a safe vantage point, observe the situation inside, and most importantly..."
Liu Landi lowered her voice even further, "...to confirm the true situation on Su An's side."
"If... I mean if, their people really get eliminated, then we'll have to think of another way, and the fate of Battalion Three will be in our hands."
This plan is well-reasoned, well-organized, and provides guidance for the entire team going forward.
All eyes turned to Gao Kai.
Gao Kai lowered his head and remained silent for a long time.
He slowly raised his head, his face now filled with resolute determination, replacing the self-reproach he had shown earlier. He walked up to Liu Landi, looked into her eyes, and solemnly said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Seeing the renewed fighting spirit in his eyes, Liu Landi finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded heavily.
"Set off!"
Liu Landi gave a low shout, and nine figures, like ghosts blending into the night, silently changed direction and stealthily headed towards the hillside where Su An was.
...
At the same time, Zhou Lang put down his binoculars, a cold, hard smile curving his lips.
That mysterious sniper's marksmanship was indeed terrifyingly unpredictable, causing him considerable trouble.
But that's the end of it.
"Brother Wolf, Brother Wolf! This is Lynx, please respond if you receive this!" An excited voice came from the walkie-talkie; it was a team member sent to clean up the battlefield.
Zhou Lang pressed the call button, his voice steady: "Speak."
"Report, Wolf! We've reached the target area! Confirmed to have killed six enemy soldiers! They all have our blue paint on them, they can't escape!" Lynx's voice was full of smugness. "We questioned one of the prisoners, and he admitted that he was the sniper who fired the shot earlier! Damn, he hid well enough, we thought he was some kind of god, but he's just a short-lived ghost!"
A burst of laughter came from the walkie-talkie.
"Well done! Wolf Brother is awesome!"
"Let their Third Battalion launch another sneak attack! This is what they'll get for it!"
However, upon hearing the cheers on the walkie-talkie, Zhou Lang's brow furrowed almost imperceptibly.
It's a miracle that the Third Battalion, a motley crew, could produce such a skilled sniper.
"Well done," Zhou Lang said casually, but he wasn't entirely at ease. "Examine the scene carefully, don't overlook any clues. The enemy commander is very cunning."
He quickly reviewed the battle situation in his mind.
The ambush from the command tent wiped out more than an entire enemy squad.
Six more fell on the hillside.
In total, the enemy's raiding squad has lost nearly twenty men.
That Jiang Yan, though he seems composed, is ruthless enough to send nearly a third of his troops to take this risk.
Unfortunately, I met myself.
Zhou Lang's lips curled up again.
He gave the order into the walkie-talkie: "Lynx, after you've tallied up the spoils, immediately take your men back to defend! Our main force has already set off to take down Battalion 3's lair, so we can't afford any more mishaps at headquarters. As for the remaining rats, just wait for them to come to you."
"Yes, Brother Wolf!"
After cutting off communications, Zhou Lang felt that the situation was settled.
He even had the leisure to pull out a pack of "Dashengchan" brand cigarettes from his pocket, put one in his mouth, and was just about to light it.
Suddenly, the walkie-talkie he had just put down burst out with a piercing electrical sound, and the lynx's panicked scream ripped through the communication.
"Enemy attack!!"
"Damn! There are more people! On the right... Ah!"
"Fire! Fire now!"
Gunshots and angry shouts mingled together on the walkie-talkie.
