When Lu Yuan saw the other person, the other person seemed to be looking in his direction as well. Lu Yuan was so angry that he gritted his teeth. This was probably what they meant by "all efforts were in vain"!
The other team members also heard the explosion in the distance and immediately looked in that direction.
Hei Zi snatched the binoculars from Lu Yuan and looked in the direction of the explosion. He saw that rocks were falling from the cliff, and the rope ladder that had been built earlier had been blown to pieces.
"Damn it! We're too late!" Hei Zi angrily pointed into the distance and cursed, "These damned guys ran faster than rabbits! We've wasted our time!"
After a moment of contemplation, Lu Yuan said, "It's not too late! They can't just throw this mine away like that! There must be some evidence inside that they can take back with them when they buy oil! We just need to bring those things with us!"
After speaking, Lu Yuan directed his men to gather all the equipment from the tents near the mine and prepare to take it back.
Just then, a burst of gunfire rang out from not far away, and some stones near the team members were hit by bullets and scattered everywhere.
"Find cover! Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Lu Yuan shouted desperately.
So everyone started looking for cover, and the gunfire became more and more intense. Lu Yuan and the others were forced to hide behind cover and dared not show their faces. Lu Yuan even heard a sound different from the other guns. After thinking for a while, Lu Yuan suddenly remembered this unique gunfire.
"Damn it! There's a sniper! Everyone be careful! Don't rush out! Hide first!" Lu Yuan shouted to his teammates.
Just as Lu Yuan was shouting, a team member tried to peek out to see what was happening. Just as he peeked out, that peculiar gunshot rang out again, and then the team member's head exploded like a watermelon.
"Damn it! Check on him!" Hei Zi shouted desperately.
Several team members crawled on the ground toward the team member who had just been shot. Before they even got close, they could smell a strong stench of blood spreading around them.
"Blackie! Someone's dead! It was Xiao Si!"
One of the team members said with a hint of regret in his voice. After hearing this, Hei Zi was so angry that he slammed his fist on the ground.
"Damn it! How can there be a sniper? How are we supposed to play like this? Everyone be careful! Keep a close eye on Xiao Si's body! If we catch this sniper, I'll chop him up with my own hands!" Hei Zi gritted his teeth, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.
Lu Yuan leaned against the rock and gently patted Hei Zi's shoulder.
"Alright! In war, casualties are inevitable! It seems we're completely trapped here! If we want to get out, we have to take out this sniper!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan shouted to the team member who was turning over the corpse in the distance.
"Check the location of the bullet wound and estimate the sniper's position!"
Then there was another commotion, and after a moment of contemplation, the team member said, "It should be at the nine o'clock position! Xiao Si was standing right in his field of vision!"
"Okay! Got it! Everyone be careful!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan suddenly remembered the ten team members who were supposed to be there to meet him.
So he quickly took out his walkie-talkie, turned on the channel, and said, "Niu Ping! What's the situation up there? Are there any casualties?"
Niu Ping's voice quickly came through the walkie-talkie: "Captain! Great! We just heard gunfire from up here. Have you guys started exchanging fire?"
Lu Yuan was speechless for a moment. Could this even be considered a fight? It should be considered falling into an enemy ambush!
"We just came down, and the enemy has already run away! They ran out in another direction! You all need to be careful, we can't go back right now. Call Minister Chen immediately and request backup! There's a sniper down here who's trapped us all! Remember! Don't engage them, call for backup first! Understand?"
"Yes, Captain! I'll contact Minister Chen right away! Please be careful!"
"Okay! I got it! Make the call right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuan felt a wave of helplessness wash over him. Gunshots continued to ring out from time to time, but the sniper hadn't fired a shot in a long time, and everyone could only hide behind cover.
After about half an hour, the gunfire finally stopped.
Meanwhile, Hei Zi used his dagger to dig a small hole in the cover. Through the hole, he could see what was happening in the distance, but the lighting was not very good and there was a thick fog, so the visibility was not very good.
Lu Yuan glanced at the rope ladder behind him and felt a sense of powerlessness. The escape route was right there, and he and his men were guarding this only way out. Leaving was practically impossible.
If this continues, the team members will definitely not be able to hold on for long.
So Lu Yuan and Lu Yuan crouched down beside the small cave and looked inside. They saw that a campfire had already been lit in the distance. Lu Yuan raised his hand to check the time; it was already past three in the afternoon.
"Damn it! More than two hours have already passed. When will this ever end?!" Lu Yuan clutched his stomach, feeling an indescribable hunger.
"Hehe! Are you hungry? It looks like they're cooking over there! Why don't we go and talk to them?" Hei Zi took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, swiped them around, and said to Lu Yuan.
