Chapter 536 Fierce Battle
Fighting over a few hard drives?
No, it's for more advanced technology. And we don't even know if that technology is on those hard drives.
Whether it's true or false, we have to fight.
We've come this far. We have to see a result. Hong Kong is Xing Baohua's second major base. If we lose the goods here, it will be a huge disgrace.
Moreover, the equipment here is complete and excellent. Of course, his men are even more outstanding.
The convoy sped along, running over a dozen red lights and scraping several cars in the process. They were focused on saving time and providing rapid support.
Xing Baohua's convoy happened to be on the same route as the hard drive transport convoy. From a distance of five or six hundred meters, we could see J lights flashing. Then, one, two, and more J horns were sounding.
Xing Baohua, sitting in the back, even peeked out to check the situation ahead. He thought to himself, "J's speed is really fast; this is getting a bit troublesome."
The main problem is that J's side is already there; how can he possibly seize the hard drive?
If I manage to snatch it first, I can just throw out an empty disk; that will be evidence, right?
Forget it, let's go to the scene and see if we can grab anything.
The thought had barely formed in his mind when a fireball suddenly appeared ahead, accompanied by a deafening roar. Xing Baohua, standing behind, was also startled. Had he been struck by lightning or bounced up by some kind of projectile?
When the first few J cars stopped and the drivers slowed down, Xing Baohua, holding onto the backs of the two front seats, leaned out and said, "Charge! Charge through! We can't be afraid of these high-priced, lightning-proof and bulletproof cars."
We're all people who've fought our way out of a bloodbath, who's afraid of who! I stepped on the gas and sped past the burning fireball.
Many people hurriedly got out of the parked cars. Some were preparing for the fire, some were calling for backup, and some wanted to go forward to check the situation. Unfortunately, the fire was too big and was consuming everything at a visible speed.
Those who couldn't bear to watch were already crying.
Xing Baohua was charging forward when someone in front of him waved him off, telling him not to go any further.
As the car gradually increased its speed, it just passed the burning car. With a loud bang, Xing Baohua saw flames rising all around him.
"What the hell is this thing? It doesn't feel like a mine." Xing Baohua thought to himself, leaning to the side.
The car was blown to its side and moved forward, with the people inside lying at an angle as the car body scraped against the ground, leaving a trail of sparks.
The car behind followed, slightly swerved, and bumped into him, turning his car back around.
The wheels screech against the ground, and the engine continues to roar.
This car is pretty good; the windows weren't shattered, and the body wasn't penetrated by shrapnel. The workers who built it should be rewarded sometime; they used high-quality materials.
The quality is impeccable; everyone on board was saved, and the vehicle is still running.
After driving for a little over two minutes, we saw five or six cars parked haphazardly on the road, three of which belonged to Xing Baohua's convoy.
Sudden braking.
The car had barely stopped when it was hit by a hail of bullets—on the body and windshield. Bang bang bang bang…
A sound like hail pelted the car body. The people inside were ready; when the enemy paused briefly, all four doors opened swiftly, and they used the doors as cover to return fire.
The vehicles behind also arrived and used the same tactics to retaliate against the vehicles in front.
Xing Baohua didn't get out of the car; he's tall and easily becomes a target. Even though he's wearing a bulletproof vest, wouldn't it hurt if he were hit?
The car door was closed, and his men moved forward in shifts, while the people in the cars behind provided suppressive fire.
Another wave of reinforcements is coming soon.
While the fighting raged ahead, Xing Baohua sat in the car, his mind racing with two questions: First, did Lewells have the guts to deceive him? Second, who was using this child?
Perhaps his actions were discovered? That doesn't make sense either. If it had been discovered beforehand, how could he have given the hard drive to his people and had it shipped to Hong Kong?
It would have been much safer to do it in the US, and you could have covered it up. Why did you have to come to Hong Kong to do it? Why make such a big fuss and create such chaos?
What do you expect the upper echelons of Hong Kong to think? What do the people behind them think?
Perhaps someone leaked the information to a third party, attempting to steal the opportunity. Since they couldn't act in the US, they had no choice but to set up an ambush in Hong Kong. The timing was impeccable.
This means that the people who ambushed him knew when the plane landed, knew which route to take, and were able to bring the equipment in quickly. This must have been prepared in advance. Where are the skilled ambushers in the vicinity?
Whether it's a thunderbolt or some other kind of bullet, this kind of thing isn't something an ordinary person can get their hands on. You have to think about mercenaries, or maybe they're all active-duty players.
Only these people can get their hands on things that are highly destructive.
Xing Baohua saw through the windshield that some of his own men were also injured. One of the men responsible for suppressing fire came out from the rear to fill in and find cover to return fire.
The smell of gunpowder certainly excited Xing Baohua's guards; they were a bunch of killing enthusiasts. How long had it been since they'd felt this exhilarated? But Xing Baohua was a little puzzled: why were the other side taking so long?
They should act quickly, grab their things, and run off with the team.
The goods weren't taken, and the escort team held the last line of defense, maintaining their firepower. This led the enemy to set up firing positions along the way.
They were supposed to be blocking J's advance, but they didn't expect Xing Baohua's reinforcements to arrive so quickly.
What surprised the other side was that Xing Baohua also provided armored vehicles for his bodyguards. Who has ever seen a big shot so extravagant? They're all for his own use; he only needs one or two to rotate.
Damn, I just realized how many armored cars there are. You can't just spend money like this.
Although armored vehicles offer passive defense, they are generally ineffective against conventional firepower.
