Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

Chapter 397 Bare-Handed Explosion!

Jackie Chan and the others disembarked from the Yangzhou, where military vehicles were already parked on the roadside at the dock.

Three desert yellow American Humvees, two of which are standard versions with gun turrets, and the one in the middle is a convertible pickup truck troop carrier.

The eight members of the Yanlong team rode in three Hummers, with Jackie Chan directing from inside the second Hummer.

At the very back are two mine-resistant ambush protected vehicles, which can easily defend against rifle fire, and even if you run directly over a landmine, you don't have to worry about dying.

The two vehicles could easily carry more than a dozen people; they were specifically used to transport stranded overseas Chinese and the ambassador.

The mine-resistant ambush protected vehicle is heavily armored and robust, ensuring the safety of overseas Chinese and the ambassador on their return journey and preventing a repeat of the previous incident where a Humvee was blown up.

At this time, Ivia was engulfed in war, and the entire city was shrouded in smoke.

The Humvee convoy drove against traffic into the city and headed straight for the battle zone where a gunfight was taking place, adding a layer of tension and pressure to the trip.

Whether it was the government army driver or the eight members of the Yanlong Team led by Jackie Chan.

Everyone was on edge, ready for anything.

Along the way out of the port, whether they encountered civilians or armed government troops, everyone cast surprised glances at the Humvee convoy.

Surprisingly, the soldiers in the Hummer all had yellow skin and Asian faces.

And it was government army drivers who cleared the way!

If foreign troops that are not peacekeeping forces enter the territory of another country during wartime, it is considered an invasion.

It is indeed extremely rare for government troops to bring foreign troops into the country.

However, the members of the Yanlong team sitting in the car had no time to pay attention to the situation outside; they were completely focused on the operation.

Jackie Chan could see the situation on the streets of the city through the vehicle's military computer display screen.

The area where the factory is located is covered in bright red on the map, indicating that it has been completely sealed off and is currently in the midst of fighting.

The planned route passed right through this combat zone, making it impossible to reach directly. Jackie Chan needed to communicate with his team via radio.

"Attention all units, attention all units, we are currently unable to access the street where the target factory is located."

The only option was to first enter the adjacent street, cross over via the rooftops of the nearby residential buildings, avoid ground firefights, and reach the factory from the rooftops.

I will now divide you into groups according to the task requirements. Please listen carefully.

Gunslinger and Bald Wolf will form three groups, responsible for finding high ground near the factory. I need you to provide me with enemy intelligence at any time.

Old Pao and Twelve will form two groups. After you arrive at the target location, you two will stay behind to support the embassy police outside.

The rest of you, form a group with me and, using standard CQB formation, enter the factory to conduct the search and rescue operation. We must find Ambassador He and all the overseas Chinese. That's all.

Jackie Chan shared a lot of information in one go, and the team members listened attentively and responded accordingly.

The convoy quickly drove out of the port's outer checkpoint, and the government soldiers guarding the checkpoint watched the convoy disappear into the end of the street.

I don't know if it's a blessing or pity.

The port area is home to most of the city's residents, and the convoy could see pedestrians and fully armed soldiers at any time as it drove along the road.

But once you cross this outer checkpoint, it's like entering another world.

Inside the sentry post, people could be seen coming and going everywhere, while outside the post, there was only a desolate steel landscape.

As far as the eye can see, it is completely empty.

The streets were deserted, and the houses were empty.

There were only cars burned to a crisp, houses bombed beyond recognition, and the air filled with the stench of burning.

Judging from the scene before us...

You could say it's the end of the world and it wouldn't feel out of place at all.

"What? Fifth Avenue has fallen too?"

The driver of the lead vehicle received a radio call and couldn't help but exclaim in Arabic.

The car radio continued to transmit the message: "Fifth Avenue is impassable; it has been occupied by the rebels. You will have to take Lafayette Avenue instead."

"No, there are too few exits there, and it's easy for the rebels to block them. I want to take Zima Road and turn around there." The driver also rejected the suggestion and chose a road himself.

There was no response from the other end of the radio, which clearly indicated that the driver's choice had been accepted.

Jackie Chan was able to hear the entire conversation from car number 2, but he did not intervene in the government troops' call and chose to let the driver decide the route himself.

As the saying goes: Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake!

No matter how strong Jackie Chan's Flame Dragon team is, they are still outsiders who can't be said to be familiar with this place; they are completely clueless about it.

Instead of giving directions without understanding the route, it's better to let the government army drivers make their own choices.

The government army driver had close ties with the military and knew a lot of internal military information, such as the combat situation of various friendly forces.

He can make judgments based on this information and formulate the plan that is most beneficial to the team.

Led by the government military base, the convoy soon encountered a large group of government troops, numbering over a hundred, and continued to march rapidly along the road.

They knew to pull over when they saw the convoy approaching, which shows they are quite reliable in terms of overall military discipline.

People kept getting injured and falling down.

pity.

The government army driver's judgment was equally unreliable.

Less than 300 meters past the government troops, the convoy heard very loud gunfire. As they continued to turn left around a bend, a fierce battle suddenly broke out ahead.

Government troops and rebels each blocked a section of the road, using vehicles and sandbags as cover, and fired wildly at each other.

Bullets rained down on the enemy like a storm of needles.

Upon seeing the convoy approaching, a government soldier immediately stood up, waved his hands, and shouted, "Don't come any closer! There's danger ahead! Don't come any closer!"

"call out--"

Before the soldier could finish speaking, a rocket launcher came hurtling towards them.

With a loud bang.

The rocket launcher hit the Toyota sedan parked on the roadside, blasting the entire car two or three meters into the air. When it landed, only half of the car frame remained.

The rest were all blasted away, turning into countless high-speed fragments.

Each of these fragments was deadly enough; several government soldiers nearby were struck down on the spot by one of them.

It's either death or serious injury!

The government soldiers in the lead vehicle of the Yanlong team were so terrified by this scene that their scalps tingled, and they jerked the steering wheel and sped off down the side road to the right.

The cars behind him followed closely, all turning into the side road.

After turning the corner to avoid the combat zone, the convoy began to move along the outer edge of the combat zone. Gunfire continued all around, but at least there were no bullets flying everywhere.

The factory has now become a major battleground, with both sides constantly sending reinforcements.

It was completely unrealistic for the Hummer convoy to drive straight into the factory; even entering from the next street was fraught with danger.

A few minutes later.

"One minute to the target. All personnel, prepare for battle." Jackie Chan gave the order; the battle was imminent.

Wu Zhe, Xu Sanduo, and the other team members checked the straps on their helmets and bulletproof vests.

After confirming there are no problems, check the backpack and whether the gun can be loaded normally. Finally, hold the gun with both hands and be ready to engage in combat at any time.

This street, located in the back of the factory, had already been the site of sporadic gunfire.

The rebels wanted to storm the factory, but with government troops blocking their way from the front, it was too difficult. So they chose to attack the factory from the rear.

Fortunately, the People's Armed Police were not to be trifled with and managed to stop the rebels' attack in time.

The Humvee convoy could be seen from a great distance, and rebels and armed police were exchanging fire across the street, with bullet flashes clearly visible.

The convoy could not approach directly because the road in the middle was completely blocked.

However, it's possible to get there on foot.

Therefore, the Hummer convoy stopped ahead of time, and all eight members of the Yanlong team jumped out of the car in unison, following Jackie Chan's order to proceed.

According to Jackie Chan's previous instructions, the team split into three and headed in different directions.

Lao Pao and Wu Liuyi ran to support the armed police, helping them resist the rebels' attack and preventing the defense line from being breached too early, which would affect the three groups' infiltration.

"Report to the captain, our personnel have been attacked. Requesting permission to return fire. Over."

As soon as Lao Pao and Twelve arrived at their designated location, they were attacked by rebel fire.

Even though the bullets are wildly inaccurate, with the impact points mostly several meters away, as long as the bullets are fired at our side, we can already defend ourselves and retaliate.

Peacekeeping forces and related foreign forces, when carrying out missions in a sovereign state, only have the right to self-defense and counterattack.

Since the standard for self-defense and counterattack had been met, Jackie Chan decisively issued the order: "Agreed to retaliate. Be sure to pay attention to your own safety. Over."

"Group Two received, over."

After Lao Pao radioed Long, he immediately joined Wu Liu in attacking the rebels.

The two rebels behind the car across the street, unaware that they had provoked a living devil they shouldn't have, still held the gun to the car and opened fire.

To their utter surprise, the next second brought a devastating blow.

Professional machine gunner Wu Liuyi moved through blind spots, avoiding the rebels' line of sight and fire, found a hole in the wall, set up his gun inside, and started spraying bullets.

The basic skills of professional special operations machine gunners are so solid that outsiders can hardly imagine.

From avoiding enemy fire to finding a position, to finding the position and firing, the whole process was extremely short, taking less than three seconds in total.

"Da da da da..."

The M249 light machine gun roared, its bullets seemingly with eyes, rushing towards the enemy.

A dozen bullets were packed into a tray-sized container. A rebel soldier hiding behind the car didn't even see where the bullets came from before he was hit by several bullets and fell into a pool of blood.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the other rebel decisively retreated and fled, changing to a new firing position.

The term "rebels" is generally considered a derogatory term due to their poor professional skills, but it can be used as a compliment in certain situations.

Take this fleeing rebel, for example. If he had hesitated for even two seconds...

He will follow in his teammates' footsteps!

It was precisely this extremely unprofessional attitude and cowardly nature that allowed him to save his life and continue to hide and cause trouble.

The rebel stronghold, located in the building behind the factory, was destroyed by Wu Liuyi's precise marksmanship.

Jackie Chan led two groups of people, drove up to the attached building next to the factory, and the six of them filed out of the car.

Without hesitation, he entered the building and quickly climbed the stairs to the roof.

The government soldiers driving the vehicles were also on high alert; they didn't want to become targets hiding in their cars, so they also needed to exercise self-defense.

One by one, they ran out of the car, guns in hand, and hid behind cover, remaining vigilant.

Not long after Groups One and Two quickly climbed the building, the escaped rebel brought several more rebels with him, and then launched an attack on Lao Pao and Wu Liuyi.

With four or five guns firing at the same time, Lao Pao and Wu Liuyi really couldn't withstand it.

The armed police were on the other side of the building and were unaware that someone was holding them back. Even if they did know, it wouldn't matter, as there were too many rebels for them to break through.

In order to buy more time, giving a search and rescue team and the ambassador more time.

The veteran could only resort to a low-level tactic: he attached a smoke grenade to the underbarrel grenade launcher and fired it in a parabolic trajectory toward the enemy.

Although the smoke would obscure the enemy, preventing him from firing accurately.

However, it will also obstruct the enemy's vision, preventing them from firing outwards.

In this way...

It's as if both sides have become blind.

The blind man was unable to fire; he could only wait for the smoke to dissipate or move to another location to find cover before firing.

However, regardless of the method used, it can delay the rebels and achieve the goal of stalling them.

The rescue team entered the building and found it to be a commercial and residential building in use, where shops are on the ground floor and apartments are rented out on the upper floors.

However, due to the recent outbreak of civil war, the people living here have all locked up and left.

Jackie Chan entered the stairwell and went up to the second floor, where he found an iron railing across the middle of the stairwell, separating the shops below from the residences above.

"We didn't bring any cutting equipment, so it will be very difficult to break it open. We need..."

Wu Zhe analyzed the situation from his professional perspective, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a loud bang, and then the iron fence in the middle collapsed.

What Wu Zhe considered a major problem was an obstacle that couldn't be easily overcome.

Jackie Chan used his body like a battering ram, bending over and hunching over, slamming his thick, muscular back shoulder into the fence, creating an impact that weighed at least several tons.

The iron railing that was fixed to the wall with expansion bolts was pulled off the wall along with the expansion bolts.

"Is it a human this time?!"

Wu Zhe, Zhuang Yan, and the other two were stunned, shocked by Jackie Chan's inhuman behavior.

Fortunately, having been used to Jackie Chan's superhuman abilities, he was a little more resistant than the average person, and quickly recovered after a moment of stunned silence.

Continuing to follow Jackie Chan, who had transformed from a heavy firepower supporter into a front-line assault soldier, they climbed the stairs upwards.

Jackie Chan easily broke through the iron fence with his bare hands, and didn't think he was any special. Getting rid of this pile of broken pieces was as simple as a normal person drinking water.

Continue to maintain standard assault posture and search from the second floor upwards.

You need to reach the rooftop first before you can try to get to the factory.
