Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

Chapter 416 The Battle Reaches its Peak

The rebel soldiers inside the tank were all red-hot, and they fired another shot into the smoke and dust.

"Boom!"

The scene of the explosion is still shocking.

The archway, already piled with shattered remains, was breached again by the explosion, and rubble rained down in all directions.

"Now he should be dead!"

That's what the rebel soldiers all thought, and that's what they were hoping for.

Less than 10 seconds later, Jackie Chan appeared from another spot nearby and fired another shot at the main battle tank.

"Bang!"

Another small dent appeared on the tank.

It still doesn't deal much damage, but its taunting attribute is maxed out.

The rebels inside the tank were already at a red-hot level, and after being tricked by Jackie Chan once again, they could no longer hold out and broke through the defenses, all roaring angrily inside the tank.

If it's too far away to hit, I might as well not hit it at all.

They drove the tank straight towards the South Archway.

It's like they're saying, "Since I can't destroy you with my tank's main gun, I'll drive my tank over and crush you. If I can't crush you, I'll find you face to face."

"They're here!"

Jackie Chan, who can shoot and move on, doesn't even need to show his face. Just hearing the rumbling of the treads makes his lips curl into a smile.

Jackie Chan has been taunting and stirring up hatred for so long, and this is the moment he's been waiting for.

He deliberately ran to the archway where the truck was located, fired another grenade at the main battle tank, and lured the tank over so it could enter through the archway.

The rebel soldiers, who had lost their minds in anger, were actually led by the nose by Jackie Chan.

Instead of firing at Jackie Chan, the tank accelerated its advance, roaring straight toward the rightmost archway.

When Jackie Chan saw that the rebel soldiers had fallen into the trap, he immediately turned around and ran to the far left.

There will be a super big firework display later.

In order to avoid being affected by the explosion, Jackie Chan had to run as far away as possible.

The rebel soldiers were unaware of the trap and drove straight into the rightmost archway without any hesitation or pause.

The moment the tank's cannon barrel was exposed, Jackie Chan decisively pressed the detonator installed on the old cannon.

"Boom!"

The whole town was shaken!

The bomb detonated the gasoline on the car, turning it into a series of super bombs. The fragments that exploded were all on fire, turning the surrounding area into a sea of ​​fire.

The main battle tank at the very center of the explosion was not blown to pieces by the bombs.

Only the right track was blown off, and every corner of its body was engulfed in flames, as if it had become a Soul Chariot version of a tank.

The soldiers inside the tank couldn't take it anymore!

The tracks derailed and could no longer move, leaving the track passively exposed to the intense heat of the gasoline fire. This was a serious problem.

Even though the tank has thick armor, it takes a certain amount of time for the flames to penetrate it, so the people inside won't die from the heat for the time being.

Unfortunately, the M60 tank did not have its own oxygen supply, and thick smoke from the burning tank poured into the tank from every crevice and corner.

It becomes so thick and choking within seconds that staying there will suffocate you.

The rebel soldiers, not wanting to be suffocated by the smoke, had no choice but to open the hatch and prepare to escape from the iron can that was about to be used as braised pork.

However, Jackie Chan, who had previously sought refuge in a safe area, had already set his sights on the top of the tank.

The rebel soldiers had just crawled out, screaming as they ran away from the flames, and as soon as they got off the tank, Jackie Chan blew them to pieces with a single shot.

Using a 35mm armor-piercing explosive grenade to shoot people is simply against the rules.

……

Inside the building on the west side.

Lao Pao and Zhuang Yan took down several rebel soldiers along the way and finally arrived at the place where Xu Sanduo and his group were trapped, only to find that they were trapped next door.

There is a wall between them, but they can see each other through a small window.

The window was originally quite large, exceeding 1.5 meters in both height and width. Several people could easily climb over it without getting blocked.

But now everything has changed drastically.

The windows were blocked with stones and bricks, leaving only a small vent to prevent anyone from climbing over.

"Doctor, I'll blow it up, give me the explosives."

Old Pao shouted at Shi Dafan through the tiny ventilation window.

In order to build a powerful bomb car, the old gunman had run out of his own explosives.

Not only did he run out of his stock, but Zhuang Yan, who delivered the truck, was also completely emptied of his inventory, leaving him with nothing.

Shi Dafan is not a professional demolition expert; even if you give him explosives, he might not be able to blow it up.

After all, this wall is very thick!

Therefore, he had not taken any action before.

Now that the professional demolition expert Lao Pao has arrived, Shi Dafan, who was blocked and had no way out, took out all the explosives without hesitation.

The veteran gesticulated on the wall for a while and quickly measured out the best blasting point.

With the ease of drinking water, they placed the directional explosive bombs on the wall and connected the detonation device, completing the preparations before the start of the race.

"Idiot, get out of the way, I'm going to blow it up!" Old Gun shouted, sticking his head out of the ventilation window.

"clear."

Xu Sanduo didn't want to be stunned by his own people, so he quickly took Deng Mei and Xia Lan and ran to the left corner of the wall to avoid the deadly blasting nozzle.

"Three, two, one, detonate!"

The veteran started the countdown and then pressed the detonation button.

"Bang!"

The wall was pierced through like tofu, and a large amount of rubble was blasted out, crashing into the opposite wall, filling the entire room with dust and smoke.

What followed was a large hole, more than a meter high and more than half a meter wide, appearing in the blasted wall.

……

On the roof on the southwest side.

Cheng Cai "escaped" from the previous observation point, moved around a few buildings in a small area, and then chose a new sniping point.

The rebels' rocket launchers were still outside, continuously providing firepower to the rebels attacking Xu Sanduo.

Xu Sanduo and Shi Dafan, two top special forces soldiers, were chased like dogs by a group of rebel soldiers and could only keep running away in a sorry state.

These three rocket launchers played a crucial role!

Indeed, the three rocket launchers were too intimidating, forcing Xu Sanduo and Shi Dafan to keep running and not dare to stay in one place for too long, lest they be locked onto by the rocket launchers.

After so much effort, Cheng Cai finally found a "feng shui treasure land".

He's about to start killing!

The three rocket launcher operators, unaware of the danger, continued to search for targets and launch attacks under the command of the rebel leader.

Jackie Chan was previously fighting a tank one-on-one. After Jackie Chan defeated the tank, he disappeared without a trace.

The rocket launcher operator had no way to deal with him!

Since Cheng Cai was almost shot by Scarface, he has disappeared from the rebels' sight and hasn't shown a single toe.

With no targets to choose from, the rebels had no choice but to target Xu Sanduo and his three companions with their rocket launchers.

I saw you!

Cheng Cai locked onto one of the rocket launcher operators, but did not rush to fire.

Because he only had one chance to fire!

After firing that shot, he had to run and find a new position before he could fire again; otherwise, if he continued to show his face, he would be killed by the rebel snipers.

Therefore, in this limited opportunity, Cheng Cai needs to maximize his gains.

His position was to the side of the rebels, giving him the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone, provided the rebel rocket launchers overlapped in their positions.

Even if it's only for a second or two!

Cheng Cai waited for about twenty seconds, because Xu Sanduo had been rescued by Lao Pao, who had blown open the wall and escaped.

The rocket launcher operator received orders from his boss to enter the house, track down Xu Sanduo, and find an opportunity to blast them to death with a single shot.

Just as the rocket launcher operator was carrying the launcher on his shoulder and walking past another rocket launcher operator, his life ended at that moment.

"call out--"

A bullet whistled through the air.

The first rocket launcher's head was pierced, and the steel-core armor-piercing round, carrying brain matter and blood, flew into the temple of the second rocket launcher next to him.

One shot to kill!

The two rocket launcher operators didn't even have time to retaliate, and before they even knew what was happening, they both fell to the ground and died.

"Watch out, sniper! Get out of the way!"

The rebel leader below was instantly terrified. He hid inside the building, grabbed a walkie-talkie, and shouted, "Karma, he's out! The intruder's sniper has reappeared! Take him out!"

"I've found his location. I'm going to take him out. You guys continue hunting down the ZG woman."

The scarred sniper had also been waiting for a long time. The prospect of competing against a top expert was exhilarating, and the grudge of being shot in the leg fueled his murderous aura.

Cheng Cai also knew that as soon as he fired, his position would be locked by the enemy.

So after firing his first shot, he immediately moved to a different location, intending to take out the last rocket launcher operator before facing off against the enemy sniper, Huangcheng.

However, plans can't keep up with changes, and the battlefield is always unpredictable.

Xu Sanduo and Shi Dafan's hostage protection team had just successfully reunited with Lao Pao and the others, and continued their breakout westward in preparation for evacuation.

But suddenly a rebel convoy appeared outside!

The rebel convoy, consisting of three armed pickup trucks and several other vehicles, numbered over 50 men and posed a significant threat to the Yanlong team.

The Fox-type armored vehicle had just arrived outside the western town, ready to pick up Wu Liuyi and Wu Zhe, who were evacuating from Deng Mei.

They originally intended to put up a fight and stall until Xu Sanduo and the others came out, then make their escape and head straight for the government army's resource point, ensuring Deng Mei's successful rescue first.

As soon as Wu Zhe came out and fired a burst of bullets, his pupils dilated instantly.

Finally, he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Go! Go quickly! There's a rocket launcher!"

Wu Liu felt a chill run down his spine when he heard about the rocket launcher. He stepped on the gas and sped into the town, running along the streets and alleys.

By utilizing the buildings in the town, the rebels were prevented from firing.

The Fox armored vehicle can easily stop rifle bullets and is largely unaffected by 7.62mm non-armor-piercing rounds, but it is no match for rocket launchers capable of destroying tanks.

In "The Mogadishu Run," even a convoy of US Humvees couldn't withstand the barrage of bullets, which nearly riddled the area with holes.

Wu Liuyi didn't believe that a mere Fox-type tank could withstand an attack from a rebel convoy; making a run for it was the best option.

Forced into a corner, Wu Liuyi drove the car into the town and reported to his superior: "Reporting, Captain, a convoy of rebels has arrived outside. We can no longer evacuate from the west side, and we have been forced into the town."

"Another convoy?? This wasn't in the movie Operation Red Sea."

Jackie Chan was puzzled, but since the incident had already occurred, he could only deal with it first.

After a moment's thought, he ordered, "Everyone, evacuate to the hostage camp immediately. We'll go through the back of the hostage camp; that's the only exit."

12. Drive the armored vehicle over to clear a path and help the others create a passage.

Old Gunner, get ready to blow it up. I need you to make a hole in the back wall of the hostage camp.

You two, you idiot and Bald-tailed Wolf, continue to protect the hostages, return to the hostage camp, and leave in an armored vehicle after the breach is blown open.

Siberian Wolf, I have a mission for you: try to steal a tank from the square.

The enemy's firepower is too strong and their numbers are too numerous. On the way to the government forces' support point, we need your tanks to protect our convoy.

If we succeed in capturing the tank, Old Cannon and Gunslinger, you two get in the tank and retreat.

Jackie Chan issued several orders in succession, redistributing the team's tasks, all of which were temporary adjustments based on the current situation.

The initial Plan A and Plan B have long since disappeared without a trace.

Upon receiving the new orders, the members of the Flame Dragon Team began to act according to their respective commands, doing different things but heading in the same direction.

The streets in the town of Basem are not wide, and Wu Liuyi is driving a wide and long armored vehicle, which is a great test of his special driving skills.

Fortunately, Wu Liuyi came from an armored infantry division, and driving armored vehicles was one of his original skills.

The technology is top-notch!

Turning left and right through the town's alleys, it was even more agile than the rebels' pickup trucks behind it, successfully shaking off the rebels.

On the other side, Xu Sanduo and his group, who had already been forced to change directions several times, had to return to the same place.

Upon receiving Jackie Chan's order, they immediately separated on the spot.

Zhuang Yan went against the grain, making a large circle inside the building in an attempt to bypass the government troops blocking his way and sneak into the central square.

The central square is now completely different from what it used to be.

In order to eliminate Jackie Chan and his group, the hundreds of rebels who were originally gathered in the central square have now been either dead or wounded, and the survivors have been divided into various areas to fight against the Flame Dragon Team in the civilian residential area.

The huge square was almost deserted, indicating that the area was at its most vulnerable.

If Zhuang Yan can bypass the rebels ahead and reach the central square, it's not impossible for him to sneak into the parking lot and steal a tank.

On the way, Zhuang Yan, having "eaten out of his mind," dared to steal from Tucker even while being chased.

The five-person team consisting of Lao Pao, Xu Sanduo, Shi Dafan, Deng Mei, and Xia Lan undoubtedly faced the most difficult situation, having to fight fiercely against the rebels during their retreat.

The rebel leader saw the five men's movements and assumed they were going back to rescue others.

Having failed to capture the invaders after so long, the rebel leader, already extremely annoyed, angrily issued a crazy order.

"Dark, take a few men and wipe out all the hostages in the hostage camp, leave no one alive."

The rebel soldier who received the order to massacre wore a black mask and dressed differently from the others; he was clearly an "elite super soldier."

He immediately selected four soldiers wearing the same masks and jogged straight to the hostage camp.

In a fleeting moment.

The wind direction has completely changed.

Both sides in the fierce battle in the town of Basem have set their sights on the hostage camp, which means that the climax of this battle will break out in the hostage camp.
