Chapter 642: Chapter 290: Braving the Rapids, Part 2
After jumping onto the combat boat, all officers took their trained positions, respectively operating the cabin machine guns and the steering wheel.
As the port workers unfastened the mooring ropes.
With the roar of the engine at the stern, the driver pushed the throttle lever, and the combat boat’s engine roared like a beast, instantly stirring up a splash as it headed toward the southeastern border river.
At the same time.
Yunyun Cloud Leopard Assault Team Border Training Base.
"Da-da-da-da..."
The rotor blades spun at high speed as six Clouded Leopard Assault Team special officers, holding 95-1 rifles and CS/LR4 high-precision sniper rifles, rushed into the cabin of an AW139 helicopter with a white body and blue-black underbelly under the cover of night.
Under the control of the helicopter pilot, the propellers spun faster, gradually lifting off.
"Buzz~"
The wings of the reconnaissance drone buzzed like mosquitoes, flying over the northern slope of the Bai family estate.
Below, Gu Ji and others were retreating under crossfire cover.
"Pfft!"
"Tolique! Tolique!"
During the southward run, a Myanmar police officer was accidentally hit in the back by machine gun bullets from the Bai Family Border Defense Camp, falling to the ground before Min Suri could pull him back.
The next second, countless bullets hit around his body.
The bullet pierced into flesh, and the splattered blood sprayed onto Min Suri’s face.
"Watch out!" Zhao Bai urgently pulled him back behind a tree trunk.
Zhao Hua pulled the trigger to fight back with two shots, quickly analyzing, "No, they’re biting too hard, and the fire suppression is too strong, we can’t create distance. Now we have the forest as cover, but once we reach the open street, we’ll be sitting ducks."
"The people from the three major families will soon surround us. Hold on a bit longer. When the Bai family is attacked from behind, that’s our best chance to retreat."
Gu Ji said this, but in his mind, he was opening the [Suicide Missile Drone Support] in the item bar.
That’s right.
This was his true trump card to lead everyone to retreat through the forest.
Initially, he thought the forces of the three major families would restrain the Bai Family Border Defense Camp and mercenaries from the rear because when Bai Mingliang increased forces to block them on the hillside, the rear forces would inevitably weaken.
But unexpectedly.
The armed forces of the three major families were like "trash," not having attacked yet.
To ensure everyone’s safety on site, Gu Ji could only use this "drone missile," even though it was a treasure he exchanged for 0.8 precious honor points. But for the sake of Gao Bo, Zhang Wenjun, Monk, those life-and-death brothers and friends, and for passing this honor checkpoint, this sacrifice was essential!
[Use Suicide Missile Drone Support?]
[Yes!]
At the moment he made the mental command, Gu Ji felt a round vision appear at the top right, revealing a black SUV driving in a certain town district in the Kokang Region, its trunk door suddenly opening slowly, extending a white object resembling a rail.
On the rail, there was a white four-wing missile about 1.5 meters long. Once the rail was set vertically upward, with a "swoosh," it suddenly shot up into the sky. Then, in mid-air, gas sprayed from the tail, the body turned horizontal, and it flew rapidly eastward.
The suicide drone was equipped with two "X" wings at the front and back, much like a Russian Lancet-3 suicide drone.
The drone’s nose featured a spherical camera capable of rotating to scout ground targets, with the body carrying 3 kilograms of military high-explosive material, packing a massive punch.
Gu Ji could even remotely control it with his mind to scout, change direction, or speed up.
This drone used aerodynamics, similar to a jet fighter, moving extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it flew over the Bai family estate.
"Wait... I think I found something!"
At this moment, Zhao Hua, piloting the drone, vaguely spotted a faint beacon of light in the night sky.
But Gu Ji didn’t register it at all, focusing solely on the drone’s vision.
Though it only required one coordinate to automatically target and bomb, to achieve the best effect and hit the Bai Family Border Defense Camp, he had to make minor adjustments.
Right now, Gu Ji felt like he had merged with the missile, his whole vision almost overlapping with the drone’s spherical camera.
After locking onto the mass of red dots on the hillside through the long-focus infrared night vision camera.
He decisively accelerated.
A "boom" followed as the missile tail suddenly spewed red flames, darting rapidly downward at 300 kilometers per hour.
[Estimated 5 seconds to target!]
[Countdown: 3, 2...]
"Shadik, that in the sky is..."
As Shadik was fiercely exchanging gunfire with Gu Ji and others, he suddenly heard his subordinate yell. When he looked up, the shallow brown pupils reflected a bright arc getting progressively closer.
Ultimately, it smashed down fiercely onto the main forces of the Border Defense Camp.
In an instant, a scorching ball of fire rapidly expanded from the center, with intense heat and shock waves sweeping through, distorting Shadik’s face and finally launching him into the air with a deafening boom.
At the explosion’s core.
The soldiers’ bodies were torn to pieces, much like leaves swept up by a violent wind, with severed limbs scattered all over, drenched in blood, while clouds of dirt were flung skyward, forming a thick gray mist that obscured visibility.
"Ah..."
"Ah, it hurts so much!"
Nearby soldiers affected by the impact each let out agonizing screams.
Bai Mingliang also yelled incoherently, hiding frantically behind something unidentified. When his ears finally picked up sounds again, he looked up to find his machine gun platoon in complete disarray, "How, how did this happen..."
"Fuck!! They’ve even used drone missiles from the other side! Is this what you fucking guaranteed, Xia Kingdom had no air support?!"
Suddenly, Shadik came up in a fury, throwing Bai Mingliang to the ground, delivering a fierce punch to his face, "Do you know you’ve killed my brothers? Four! A whole four!!"
"Drone missiles? This, this..."
Bai Mingliang was uncertain whether he was dazed by the punch or stunned by the word "drone missile."
"Shadik, what do we do now? Besides Eagle, only Walker and I are still alive..."
At this moment, a tall, skinny mercenary with a bloodied forehead and dust-covered face approached, evidently terrified by the drone missile’s earlier explosion.
Shadik stood up slowly, spat on the ground, "Let’s go, take whoever’s left and retreat. I must have been blind to take on such a bullshit mission!"
"You dare! I paid for this!"
Bai Mingliang, hearing they were leaving, quickly drew his handgun, aiming at Shadik’s back.
But the remaining two mercenaries also raised their HK416 rifles, aiming at Bai Mingliang’s forehead.
Shadik slowly turned back, a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, lightly tapping the tactical headset, "Mr. Bai, my reconnaissance team is recording all our actions and conversations in real time. If you aren’t completely stupid, I advise against this, or you’ll face the fiercest retribution from the PM Military Company!"
Hearing "PM"
Bai Mingliang’s mind immediately conjured up the subservient tone and demeanor of his father Bai Maoliang when contacting this company, clearly indicating that the Bai family could not afford to antagonize them.
With this thought, he ultimately lowered the gun.
But the venom in his gaze didn’t diminish one bit.
Regardless, Shadik no longer cared; with the smoke cleared, under cover of night, he pulled out a three-proof military phone from his tactical vest, took a photo of Gu Ji and others in the dense forest, and finally retreated with his men into the darkness.
