545.Chapter 545
As soon as Jason, Jiang An and the others, who were in charge of answering the periphery, heard the explosion, they knew that Lin Rui and the others had succeeded and were anxiously waiting for them to come out. He cunningly led the patrol away, and then cleanly disposed of the guards at the door.
Jason and the others immediately greeted him, "I'm still going to fight a big battle to cover you, so it's completely out of our business." ”
"Stop talking nonsense, we have to leave right away. Lin Rui said in a deep voice, "Take shelter in the jungle first, and then evacuate quickly." ”
"Hey, didn't the white scorpion already blow up by you? it should be enough for them to keep them busy for a while, why are we in such a hurry? Yelena whispered.
"We killed most of the officers, but it was still a large force. And the predecessor of this force was the Presidential Guard. He is better than anyone else in terms of assassination prevention and investigation and tracking. I'm afraid they'll be able to organize a manhunt soon after this mess, so it's not safe for us to stay here any longer. Lin Rui didn't look back and said, "If we don't want to leave our lives here, we have to seize this opportunity to evacuate." Late will change!"
"I agree. "Our main mission has been completed, the entire command system of the capital garrison has been completely destroyed, and even if we do not withdraw our troops, their morale has plummeted, and it is impossible to continue fighting." So there's no point in staying here anymore, and a quick evacuation is a good idea. ”
Lin Rui said as he walked, "Inform Surya that we have completed the task. Ask him what is going on there? As long as he holds out for another day or two, the news of the withdrawal of the capital garrison reaches the ears of the government troops and the Morningstar company, and they will collapse without a fight. ”
"Yes, I'm informing him. "But he didn't respond." ”
"No response?" Lin Rui's face changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Contact again, you must contact until you get in touch." ”
Ten minutes later, Jiang An shook his head regretfully and said, "Lin Rui, they still haven't responded, the situation doesn't seem to be good." ”
"Damn! He promised me that I would keep it!" Lin Rui pushed his palm on the tree beside him, and was silent for a long time before he said, "Ask the Black Island Headquarters what Ben said there." There should be news from him. ”
"I've already asked. There was no further news from Cobain. The last time Surya contacted him was eighteen hours ago. So...... The situation is not so rosy. ”
"Bastard, how could he die like this!" Lin Rui angrily kicked the tree next to him, "How can he!"
"Lin Rui's things may not be as bad as you think. Maybe it's just a matter of communication, but at least according to Cobain, Turkrit is still in the midst of a fierce battle and hasn't lost ground. ”
Lin Rui frowned a little sadly and said, "You don't understand, I found him before the war." It was I who sued him, and even if he died, he would never retreat. I shouldn't have said this to him. ”
"You're doing the right thing. If Tekrit is lost, then everything we do is meaningless. Including this operation, including our assassination of the White Scorpion. will all be ruined because of the loss of Tekrit!" Jiang An said in a deep voice, "Believe me, Lin Rui, you didn't do anything wrong. ”
"I know, I didn't do anything wrong. But I feel like I killed him myself! If I hadn't told him that, maybe he wouldn't have worked so hard, maybe he would have survived. You know? I'm not saddened by his death. Rather, it may have been my personal judgment that caused his death. Lin Rui hugged his head anxiously, "It's not him who should be damned, even if it's a mercenary, it's not damned!"
"Maybe it's not that bad, maybe he's not dead. Shogan whispered, "We'll rush over now." Even if he is dead, we will find his body. ”
Lin Rui was silent for a while and nodded, "I'm sorry, I was a little out of shape just now. Let's go, we still have a way to go. He told the others, "Everyone's attention, we must quickly get back to Tekrit and get back into the fight to protect Tekrit." Tekrit must not be allowed to fall into the hands of government forces. ”
Lin Rui and the others quickly walked through the woods, came to the edge of the Azula River again, and used the rubber boat to return to the opposite bank and rush to Tekrit.
By this time, Tekrit had become a mess, and the undaunted charge of the government army had crumbling the defense line of the National Liberation Organization. Several places were almost breached, and the soldiers of the National Liberation Organization suffered heavy casualties and were no longer able to resist. It's all the mercenaries of the Black Isle Company who are acting as battlefield firefighting teams. Wherever there is the most dangerous, run to it.
These taciturn Gurkha mercenaries seem to be born with a warrior temperament that is tough to the bone. Surya was not dead despite multiple injuries and bandages on her arms and head. The men who were commanding him struggled to resist the attack of the government forces.
"Damn, why are these people so powerful, when did the government army have such combat effectiveness?" said the colonel, whose face was covered in sweat and dust, as he commanded the defense.
"They have no food, and they don't dare to be deserters. It is said that there were riots and desertions on the opposite side last night, and it took a total of 200 shots by government forces to calm the situation. Now they have no choice, either starve to death and be shot, or desperately try to take Tekrit!" Surya gritted her teeth and said, "Hunger and despair will explode the deepest ** in the human heart, enough to turn people into beasts. ”
"We will not be able to bear it if we continue like this, the first line of defense on the north side is almost impossible to hold, and it may be lost at any time. And the casualties on the west side are also very large, and I have no reserves in my hands. If I continue to fight, I will go to the battlefield with a gun in person. The colonel gritted his teeth.
"I'm not much better than you, my men have been exhausted, rushing to the aid of every position to deal with the crisis. A third of them are dead now, and almost all of the rest are wounded. You know what it looks like. Surya shook her head.
"Then why don't you retreat?" the colonel whispered, "you are different from us, you are only a mercenary and have no responsibility to the country. ”
"But I have a duty to my comrades, and I have a duty to our employers. We are not patriots, and we are even spurned by most patriots. But at least we can keep our promises. Su Rya said in a deep voice, "More importantly, I have confidence in Lin Rui. ”
"Lin Rui, is that young mercenary? I'm really sorry, I don't have much confidence in him. The colonel smiled wryly. "We are facing a situation in which no one can create a miracle. ”
