Special Forces: I Can See the Experience Bar

Chapter 245 The End of an Old Gun?

"I don't know, but the chirping of insects in the woods has become much quieter," Xiao Zhuang replied in a low voice.

If the two weren't so close that the radio wouldn't still be working, Xiao Zhuang's voice would be barely audible unless someone held his mouth to his lips. This shows how nervous he was, as his voice was hushed to such an extent.

"go!"

The veteran made a decisive move, telling Xiao Zhuang to run away with him, as their current situation was far from safe.

Whether it's a coincidence or there's real trouble, the best thing to do is not to run away.

The veteran second squad leader knew it would be difficult to extract useful information using conventional methods, so he had to give up trying to get more information. He had originally planned to turn his attention to the unconscious recruit lying on the ground if the second squad leader didn't cooperate.

If I can't deal with a seasoned veteran like you, dealing with a new recruit is a piece of cake.

New recruits are inexperienced; a little intimidation will surely make them blurt out everything they should and shouldn't say.

Not everyone is as reckless as Xiao Zhuang and Chang Ning; in fact, most new recruits are more like Xiwa, which is the norm.

The old man didn't believe his luck would continue to run out, and that he would encounter another troublemaker after Changning and Xiaozhuang.

But it's too late to say anything now; the veteran has no chance to scare the new recruit.

They have to run away immediately, otherwise what if they get blocked by the Blue Army?

"Squad leader, those two are trying to escape!"

A Blue Army soldier crouching beside the bushes reminded Xiwa.

The environment was dim, and Xiwa couldn't tell whether the two people standing in front of his squad leader were Red Army soldiers or his own men. Judging from their figures, the two men gave him a sense of familiarity.

Just as he was hesitating about whether to show himself, the two men in front of the second squad leader quickly hid behind cover.

"Such a quick reaction!"

Seeing the two men's swift, cheetah-like reactions, Xiwa knew in her heart that the people on the other side were definitely from the Red Army.

Combined with the familiar feeling they gave me, the answer has become clear, and the identities of the two people are obvious.

They are Xiao Zhuang and Lao Pao!

"Fire! They're Red Army men!"

We can't let these two people slip away right under our noses. When Xiwa saw them trying to escape, he quickly signaled to the soldiers of the second squad to open fire.

At Xiwa's command, gunfire instantly engulfed the small area.

The sudden and fierce attack caught Xiao Zhuang and Lao Pao completely off guard, causing the situation to seem to be tilting in Xiwa's favor.

Momentum is something that cannot be seen or touched, but it truly exists.

Xiwa and his men's momentum was rising steadily when Xiaozhuang and Laopao were suppressed and unable to fight back. If they didn't find a way to stop the rising momentum of the other side, Xiaozhuang and Laopao would either be captured alive or killed.

Of course, considering the tradition of "saving the last bullet for myself," Xiao Zhuang and Lao Pao should have detonated their honor bullets before being captured alive by Xiwa.

"There are more people on the other side, Xiao Zhuang, retreat first, I'll cover you."

Old Pao fired a few short bursts toward the spot where the gunfire had appeared, seemingly killing one of the opponents, which gave him a chance to catch his breath and talk to Xiao Zhuang.

It was too dark for Xiao Zhuang to see exactly how many people were coming from the other side, but judging from the density of their firepower, there must have been quite a few.

Given the current situation, he has no choice but to leave, even if he's unwilling. Preserving some of his strength is better than losing both of them here. Besides, the veteran isn't necessarily going to lose; if things really get too tough, he still has the ability to escape.

"it is good."

Xiao Zhuang, together with Lao Pao, emptied a magazine of bullets, and for a time they actually suppressed the opposing Blue Army so much that they couldn't raise their heads, thus buying themselves a chance to retreat.

The Blues were unaware that, due to their negligence, one of the Reds had slipped through their fingers.

"Push forward! I refuse to believe that the two people on the other side can outgun the five of us!"

After Xiwa finished speaking, he picked up his gun and charged ahead of Lao Pao. Seeing that the squad leader had taken the lead, the others were filled with patriotic fervor and shouted as they rushed toward Lao Pao's position.

Under Xiwa's leadership, the Blue Army did not charge blindly; that was not a charge but a suicide mission!

When the Blue Army charged, they would also fire at the old gunner to provide suppressive fire for their comrades around them, which made it very difficult for the old gunner to fight.

The distance between the two sides was slowly closing, and the pressure on the veteran was increasing exponentially, but at this moment he could not retreat.

Xiao Zhuang hasn't run far yet; if he leaves, he'll be caught up.

As the veteran player moved and fought, he maintained a relatively safe distance from the opposing Blue Army. Seeing that he couldn't take the lead for a long time, Xiwa became very anxious, but he had no choice but to wait it out.

Xiwa was anxious, but wasn't the veteran opposite him just as anxious? Don't forget that he was surrounded by the Blue Army. Once the gunfire started, he had to finish the fight quickly. The longer it dragged on, the worse the situation would be for him.

If we don't find a solution soon, Lao Pao won't be able to leave even if he wants to.

Does he really think the Blue Army is deaf? That they can't hear such dense and prolonged gunfire? Who knows, the nearby Blue Army might be converging on him right now.

That's the gist of the matter, but putting it into practice is fraught with difficulties.

The veteran is being closely pursued by the opposing Blue Army. The only way for him to break free is through external force, such as throwing a grenade or planting a bomb. He's a demolition expert, so he's a professional at these things.

However, now even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. They were originally infiltrating, and their equipment was all taken from the Blue Army. Where would they find the time to get their own complete set?
Old Pao has absolutely no explosives on him; not to mention, there isn't a single thing on him that can make a sound if thrown.

The opponent was the familiar Night Tiger Reconnaissance Company, and the battleground was in the jungle, a special operations stronghold. Logically speaking, the veteran shouldn't be having such a difficult time.

That's where the strange thing is. The guys on the other side seemed like slippery eels to Lao Pao, and they knew his fighting style very well.

So after engaging the opponent, the veteran became increasingly uncomfortable, and the battle went very poorly.

"Could the one leading the other side be Chen Pai?" the old gunman muttered to himself.

After much thought, it seemed that only Chen Pai among the Night Tigers was likely to have this ability.

The idea was rejected as soon as it popped into my head; if Chen Pai was facing a larger group, there would be more people than just those in front of him.

"Perhaps it's another newcomer emerging."

After going through all the people he knew in his mind, Lao Pao still couldn't find anyone who matched up with the leader on the other side.

"The new generation of talents is getting better and better, which puts a lot of pressure on us old guys."

The old man's smile was complex, a bittersweet mix of relief and joy.

After all, it was the old company from before. Seeing it full of talented people and developing better and better, how could the old soldier not be gratified?

"But don't underestimate us old guys!"
