One Thousand Eight Hundred and Twenty-Four Carlos's Amulet
After withdrawing from the ridge, the soldiers immediately put on new magazines. The soldiers without mines raised their guns and pointed at the ridge, while the soldiers with mines took out mines and placed them on the ridge.
After leaving all the landmines behind, a few fast-moving soldiers deliberately left some traces and made several booby traps with grenades.
These traps are unlikely to repel enemies, but delaying them for a little while is certainly not a problem.
After arranging everything, the soldiers quickly evacuated and ran southward at a sprint speed of 100 meters.
Luo Qi and others had just run out for more than a hundred meters when the Insect Riders rushed up the ridge. The unwise Insect Riders stepped on the mines one after another. The Insect Riders close to the ridge were both dead and injured. There was an obvious sign in the Insect Swarm's offensive. of interruption.
At this time, the insect-men were still more than 200 meters away from the top of the mountain, but one of the insect-men was so unlucky that he was hit in the right eye by a steel ball flying from the top of the mountain.
The steel ball that shattered the eyeball penetrated directly into the Insect Man's brain and was deeply embedded in the Insect Man's medulla oblongata.
The medulla oblongata is connected to the brainstem and the spinal cord. Its main function is to regulate the activities of internal organs, such as breathing, circulation, digestion and many other control centers necessary for people to maintain life. It is called the "life center" by the medical community!
Nailing a steel ball at such a vital place was a complete sentence of death for the insect-man. In the blink of an eye, the shot-infested insect-man's feet went limp, and he was already dead before he fell down.
The other bugmen didn't care at all about how he died, and were focused on rushing up the ridge.
At this time, the Insect Rider had already crossed the ridge, biting the special service team and pursuing them fiercely. The speed was a little faster than that of the special service team.
Luo Qi realized that continuing to escape was not an option, and was wondering whether to kill the insect rider first before leaving, when the head and shoulders of an insect rider suddenly exploded together.
The dead insect rider was too fast. After being knocked down, it rolled several dozen meters before stopping.
It was only then that everyone heard a muffled sound coming from the top of the mountain opposite. It was the unique sound of a 20mm sniper cannon!
The distance between the two hills is 1,230 meters. After the bullet hits the target, it takes about two seconds for the gunshot to be heard.
Another insect rider fell down, and two seconds later, gunshots were heard again. Luo Qi's heart that was hanging in the air immediately returned to his stomach, and he led the whole group to run without hesitation.
Although Luo Qi did not explain it in advance, after the fifth squadron arrived at the top of the mountain,
Tao Chengyu immediately ordered the troops to stop advancing and build a blocking position on the top of the mountain, preparing to meet the fourth squadron that was behind them.
Time was tight, there was no time at all, and it was impossible to dig holes. The soldiers quickly dispersed and found a hidden place to be ready.
The soldiers were very proactive and reserved the best position on the top of the mountain for the sniper, and the second best position for the machine gunner!
The sniper of the 5th Squadron is named Yan Zhicheng. Before he was captured, he was a sniper with good marksmanship. Now with the bonus of the fire control system of the powered armor and large-caliber weapons such as sniper cannons, he is not a sniper at more than a thousand meters. thing.
Other people's armored rifles also have a range of 1,200 meters and can definitely participate in the battle, but the insect riders are so fast that it is not easy to kill them with one shot.
Everyone tried several shots, but no one hit the target, so they had to stop shooting and wait.
The top of the mountain became Yan Zhicheng's stage. He fired two shots every three seconds or so, basically killing a target. He alone blocked the pursuing insect riders.
Such a high hit rate is due not only to strength but also to luck.
If the target is not that fast, it can change direction at any time, and an enemy that keeps changing directions is often the most difficult target to hit.
But the speed of the insect rider is so fast, but it cannot change the direction at will. It is just like turning the steering wheel hard when the car is driving slowly, but once the speed is fast, if the direction is turned slightly faster, it will definitely overturn.
With the help of the fire control system, predicting the location of the Bug Rider is not that difficult.
With the last gunshot, the last bug rider fell to the ground, and Yan Zhicheng softly read a number in his heart: seventeen!
Seventeen giant insects were the number of enemies he killed in this battle.
Tao Chengyu couldn't help but said: "Well done!"
Yan Zhicheng was still lying there, but the gun moved from the hillside to the top of the mountain.
A bug-man happened to cross the ridge at this time. He was extremely fast, but after crossing the ridge, a light suddenly flashed in Yan Zhicheng's telescope. The bug-man suddenly stopped and fell to the ground.
Yan Zhicheng fired again without hesitation. There was a gunshot, and two seconds later, the insect man intercepted and broke into two pieces.
"Eighteen!" he whispered softly.
More bugmen rushed up the ridge. Seeing the insect corpses all over the ground and the Fourth Squadron running away, the bugmen decisively gave in and retreated immediately.
Yan Zhicheng had already targeted an insect man, but the insect man didn't give him a chance to shoot.
The 4th Squadron rushed down the hillside and then up the hillside, and soon joined the 5th Squadron on the top of the mountain. Luo Qi looked back and couldn't help but laugh: "Squadron Tao, where is our guest?"
"Over there!" Tao Chengyu pointed to a big tree not far away.
Luo Qi said: "I'll leave this to you!"
Tao Chengyu nodded: "Don't worry."
Luo Qi walked toward the big tree and soon saw Carlos under the tree, as well as two special service members guarding Carlos.
Luo Qi waved to the team members: "Leave this to me!"
The team members agreed and turned around to leave, leaving only Luo Qi and Carlos.
Luo Qi walked up to the insect man: "Carlos, what is going on? What do you know?"
Carlos pursed his lips: "I can't tell you."
Luo Qi's face darkened: "What do you mean?"
"Nothing." Carlos said, "You can see that I am in great danger now. If I tell you now, you won't need me. If I run into an enemy again, you won't protect me. So I have to be in a safe place before I can tell you this secret!"
Luo Qi's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot: "I promise on my military honor that I will protect your safety!"
Many intelligence has time limits. One more second of delay means one more second of danger.
"No, no, no!" Carlos raised a finger and shook it, "Emotionally, I should believe you, but I don't want to die, so reason tells me that I can't believe anyone. With this secret, you will definitely protect me. If there is no secret, will you still care about me?"
Luo Qi was speechless for a moment. He put himself in his shoes and thought about it. If there is a real emergency, the special service team may be too busy to take care of themselves, so how can they be distracted to protect Carlos?
Carlos seemed to see what Luo Qi was thinking, and added: "Don't worry, this secret is very important, but it's not a particularly urgent message. We have plenty of time!"
