Chapter 490: Outpost in the Night

Remember [Book♂fan÷lou→小&说#网] in a second, free reading of wonderful novels without pop-up windows!

Merida is an open city.

This city has no choice but to be 'open', because the economy is poor, the level of construction is not high, and the city is full of low-rise houses facing the streets. With the increase of the living population, the intricate streets and alleys have been expanding outward like illegal buildings.

This situation is a common problem in cities in Central and South American countries. As a result, roads can be found to enter the city from any direction, and it is difficult to restrict the entry and exit of people by blocking the main roads of the city.

Under Lula's management, the Mexican Security Forces set up guard posts around the city and cooperated with the "Enclave" armed personnel to drive patrols to restrict the flow of people. However, this simple approach has a lot of loopholes.

At the moment, on the 180 ring road in Merida, a ten-man Mexican infantry squad is standing guard on the sentry post. Because of the cold weather, no one wanted to stay outside to blow the wind, so they moved the sentry post that was stuck in the middle of the road to the side of the road, and all of them occupied a private house as a sentry post.

And in the night when the cold wind is raging, the job of the sentinel is to look out through the glass window, but in fact it is pitch black outside, and without night vision equipment, they can't see anything.

The house was lively, a portable boiler was steaming, and ten Mexican soldiers were lying or sitting around the boiler playing cards and chatting. They used to talk about women, but now they were talking about food.

"I heard that the soldiers of the governor's guard can eat well. Those guys are really lucky."

"I heard from the officers that Governor Alfonso must have joined the 'Aurora Legion', and the 'Aurora Legion' brought him a large amount of supplies."

"I don't care who the governor takes refuge in, I just want to know who can benefit us?"

"I heard that people from the gendarmerie are engaged in a black market. Those guys have been catching material thieves, but they themselves are the biggest thieves."

Among the small talk, only one soldier sat by the window and stared out. But in fact, the sentry soldiers also joined the discussion, chatting about where they could get some food? Eat, eat, eat, talk too much, everyone feels so hungry.

But at this moment, there was a slight vibration first from the ground, and then there was a buzzing sound from far to near. The Mexican soldiers who were playing cards stopped their hands, and everyone turned their heads to look out the window.

"A patrol from the Enclave is here?"

"The patrol didn't make much noise."

"Could it be the wind?"

"Have you ever seen a wind that can shake the ground?"

Among the many suspicions, the strange noise became louder and closer. The Mexican soldiers finally confirmed that there was a convoy approaching them, but instead of immediately firing their guns to defend themselves and then alerting their superiors, they all retreated.

The roar became louder and louder, and the Mexican soldiers couldn't help imagining a scene in their minds, that is, a car was rushing towards them irresistibly.

"What the hell is going on out there?"

"Should we get out of here?"

"Is anyone going to attack us? I don't want to fight."

The soldiers screamed and panicked. They all moved away from the wall near the road and kept avoiding the other side of the room. And this judgment was correct. When the roar reached its peak, with a bang, a six-wheeled 'Lynx' armored vehicle crashed in from the outside.

The thin wall could not withstand the impact of the eight-ton heavy armored vehicle body. The bricks on the wall and the fragments of the door frame turned into flying projectiles, smashing the heads of the Mexican soldiers who couldn't dodge. .

The kerosene lamps hanging in the room were extinguished on the spot, and the whole environment was dark. With the rumbling sound of the engine, it added a bit of horror.

"We surrender, surrender! Don't fire, we all surrender!" The Mexican soldiers on the entire sentry shouted collectively, their voices were chaotic and tragic, as if they were dying animals that were about to be slaughtered.

The headlights of the 'Lynx' armored vehicle suddenly turned on, and the surviving Mexican soldiers could not even open their eyes under the strong light.

What frightened them the most was that a cannon with a thick tube suddenly appeared from the ruins. This was the 90mm anti-tank gun mounted on the 'Lynx'.

And a dozen or so heavily armed soldiers appeared behind the Bobcat, wearing black hoods, carrying rifles, and equipped with night vision goggles. The leading assailant arrested all the people on the entire sentry post, and reported to the rear after a brief interrogation: "No. 1 point is safe, the road is clear, and you can move."

The 'Lynx' armored vehicle slowly retreated from the ruins of the house it had made, and ten Mexican soldiers were also taken out after being tied up. They were all stunned by the sudden attack, they could only watch the armed chariots roaring past one after another on the road that should have been blocked.

"Is there going to be a war?" Someone asked in a crying voice, "Are we going to be executed?"

In Mexico, it is not new that military and police officers are often caught by armed drug dealers and executed. But the current situation is even weirder, and it looks like a large-scale battle is about to happen.

Seeing an assailant walking towards him, the Mexican squad leader suddenly felt excited and shouted: "We are loyal to Governor Alfonso, and we welcome the 'Aurora Legion' to liberate Mexico. We all surrender , we can be guides, we know where the Enclave's barracks are?"

As soon as he shouted, the rest of the Mexican soldiers didn't know why and shouted, crying and begging one by one, and they were very excited to welcome the king. Instead, the assailants in charge of guarding them exchanged opinions in private.

"What are these guys shouting about?"

"No, I don't understand Spanish."

"It seems that they also know that they are going to surrender. The Mexicans' fighting will is too weak, and they will lead the way properly."

The attackers did not embarrass the Mexicans. After waiting for the entire assault convoy to pass through the intersection, they destroyed the communication station on the sentry post, took away some of the weapons, and then withdrew. Only ten Mexican soldiers were left blowing in the cold night.

After finally saving their lives, the ten Mexicans found themselves drenched in sweat and almost frozen to death by the cold wind. It took them a lot of effort to break free from their respective shackles, and tremblingly looked for clothes to change.

While waiting to breathe, the Mexican soldiers lit a few torches to illuminate the smashed outpost house. Everyone was stunned, like a big dream, in a trance.

"I dare to swear to God, the troops just now are definitely members of the 'Aurora Legion'."

"Shall we report to the chief?"

"The last time the port was attacked, the executioner Lula executed all the captured Mexicans. This time the 'Enclave' will definitely suffer great losses, even if we report it, we will die."

"Then what shall we do?"

"It's over, we really have nowhere to go."

Feeling that the future was bleak, the ten Mexicans just stood in the ruins and cried bitterly. After a long time of misery, someone faintly suggested——should we go to the 'Aurora Legion'? (To be continued.)
