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. Apart from the occasional chirping of birds and apes, there was no other sound. In addition to the smell of rotting plants, the air was also filled with the smell of corpses and the 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 murderous intention. He was entangled in a big tree like a rock. 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 his 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 hung 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 wire tightened instantly and cut deeply into his flesh. Not to mention that no sound could be made from his throat, even breathing was impossible. Just like that, in less than 10 seconds, the rebel's throat was strangled and he fell softly to the ground. Ling Hao neatly stuffed the body into the vines and pulled the leech off the back of his hand. There was still no fierceness or murderous intent in his eyes, but it was even colder than before. He put the gun on his back and chased the group of rebels who had just passed.
The jungle was like a man-eating beast. Unknowingly, a dozen rebels were wiped out silently, without a single shot being fired from beginning to end.
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 fear. , 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? 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, and the young team member subconsciously raised the muzzle of his gun. A strong hand grabbed the barrel of the gun and forced it to point upward: "You are no longer a recruit, are you? If you point the gun at me again, I will twist your head off." Ling Hao's cold eyes made the young team member With a shudder, he quickly put away his gun. When the others saw him coming back, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
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. Then he used the key to unscrew a can of lunch meat, scooping out large pieces of food with a spoon while eating in the big hall. 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 have been designed and distributed to the team members, and they have also distributed advertisements and received orders all over the world. Of course, the main reason why they are famous is not because of this, but because of their style of doing things, which is that they have no bottom line and can do anything. These people are a group of out-and-out scum and butchers.
It is 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 lord is unhappy, the private armed forces will immediately turn into rebels and quickly overthrow the regime. The most unlucky ones at this time are the foreign companies that invest here. Basically, they will be robbed. When these drug lords have reaped the benefits, they will retreat behind the scenes and push a puppet out to start a farce. He was elected by the people and then became the so-called legitimate president. In fact, he was just their agent on the surface.
This is the case this time. As soon as turmoil broke out in this small country, China began to evacuate its citizens. The vast majority of Chinese companies and citizens have left safely, except for a mine in the rainforest area and a dozen Chinese technology Personnel and their families were trapped. The mission that Ling Hao's team received 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 evacuate by a large transport helicopter on an amphibious landing ship.
Ling Hao said while eating: "There are not just a group of people chasing us, there are rebels and people from the 'Red Scorpion'. Originally, I killed a group of more than a dozen rebels and was about to catch up and join you." , only to find 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 carry a lot of supplies. We happen 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 road, 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. A 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 is 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 stayed behind, and 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 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 "boom", the air wave generated by the explosion of "Tripping Thunder" blew both "Bell" and Ling Hao away. They flew several meters away before falling heavily to the ground. Ling Hao felt that his brain was completely numb for a moment. It's blank, and my ears are buzzing. However, the long-term rigorous training made him know what he should do now. He crawled to the ground almost as a reflex. At the same time, gunshots rang out, and several bullets flew past his scalp, even knocking him off. lock of hair. He lay on the ground and turned his head to look in the direction of the "Iron Hammer", only to see that it had been hiding behind a big tree and fired back, and it seemed that he was not injured.
Ling Hao pulled the "bell" on the side again. When he saw the other party's condition, his heart suddenly went cold. This young special operations team member was covered with shrapnel wounds, his sternum was dented, and he kept talking. The ground was covered with blood and foam, and it seemed that there was no hope of help.
Reality is different from film and television works. There are only a very small number of "loose land mines" that are exploded by raising your feet. Most of them are "pressure fired" or "trip fired". Moreover, 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 the life. Take the lives of others around you. But this is not a formula calculation. Everyone has only one life. How many people can cover the landmines with their own chests? "Bell" rushed to the mine regardless of his own safety, and exchanged his own life for 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, picked up the gun on the ground and opened fire into the forest. The enemy's tactics were very professional, using standard ambush tactics. They were definitely the "Red Scorpions" mercenaries. Judging from the sound of gunfire, there were four people on the other side, but Ling Hao knew that there must be a sniper hiding in the distance, who could give him and the "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 to the gunfire carefully, and then gently adjusted the scale on the 3x rifle scope. In the scope, there was only a lush and dense jungle, but Ling Hao knew 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 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 wisp of smoke fell across an arc towards Ling Hao. Ling Hao had no choice but to roll away from the position he had just hidden. He had no way to take the "bell" away, so he could only pluck one of the soldier identification tags from his neck while turning over and leaving. There was an explosion and "Bell"'s body was thrown away again, but Ling Hao couldn't care about it anymore. As soon as he left the hiding place, the sniper's gun fired. Ling Hao dodged left and right, and the opponent fired three times in a row. The gun even 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 rifle. But this can't be blamed on him. Experienced machine gunners generally don't fire in crazy bursts unless they need fire suppression. They mainly shoot in short bursts, which feels no different from a rifle. The sniper's position was exposed, and the machine gun in "Iron Hammer's" hand finally burst out with fiery tongues of flame, and the sniper was killed. However, in order to be able to hit the opponent, "Iron Hammer" also revealed a little of his body from behind the big tree. The last "Iron Hammer" The gun of the "Red Scorpion" mercenary also fired. When he heard the distinctive clear gunshot 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 evading, and half-knelt in the jungle sky. He raised his gun on the ground and started shooting at the enemy position.
This was a rare interactive shooting scene between four people. Bullets crisscrossed in the jungle, and three bodies fell to the ground. Only Ling Hao was breathing heavily and still half-kneeling there, watching the blood flow from the body of his teammate "Iron Hammer" It flowed out from under the body.
"No!" Ling Hao suddenly sat up from the bed, his sheets soaked in cold sweat. It had been a while since he had had this dream. Ling Hao glanced at a photo of his comrades on the bookshelf, and there were figures of "Hammer" and "Bell" on it. I don’t know whether the dream blurred the reality, or the reality entered the dream. The scene of many comrades sacrificing before their eyes was always clearly engraved in Ling Hao’s mind. It often appeared in the dream inadvertently. It was so real that it made his heart tremble. Some of his old wounds ached 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 cell phone suddenly rang. Ling Hao didn't even look at the number and answered directly. On the other side was an anxious female voice: "Hello, is this Mr. Ling? I'm Emily..."
"Mr. Ling?" Ling Hao was still not 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, just after the boat sailed through the waters of Vietnam's Hai Phong Port, we encountered several unknown boats. After a group of armed men forcibly boarded our yacht on a national speedboat, 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. Weeping dumbly.
Ling Hao's face suddenly darkened: "Haifang Port? It's not those guys who did it again, is it? You've offended me again, this time I have to get rid of them completely!"
