Compared to other countries, where were their soldiers when their citizens were being ravaged by artillery fire?
The soldiers who should have protected them never came.
That was the difference!
At this moment, Qin Feng carried a wounded soldier on his back, his eyes fixed ahead. He shifted the muzzle of his gun and pulled the trigger. A rebel who had just poked his head out of cover was shot through the forehead and killed.
"Falcon, come out with the heavy machine gun for cover!"
The rebels had built a solid defense line on the street ahead, completely blocking the road. The tanks could not break through.
"Yes!" He Chenguang immediately stopped the tank and emerged from it, mounting a heavy machine gun directly on the top hatch.
"All you scumbags, die!"
Accompanied by He Chenguang's roar, his hands didn't stop, and he furiously pulled the trigger.
Dada-da…
Instantly, the bullets from the heavy machine gun formed a torrent of steel, flying towards the rebels rushing around the corner.
Pa-pa-pa…
Bullets gouged out fist-sized holes in the walls beside the rebels, sending shrapnel flying everywhere.
The rebels at the front were blown to pieces, their blood splattering in all directions. Those behind, facing such fierce firepower, hastily retreated, not daring to show themselves again.
Seeing this, Qin Feng and his team seized the opportunity to charge forward.
"Hurry, hurry…"
Everyone strained with all their might, charging forward. With a united effort, they passed through the rebel defense zone.
This was their chance to survive. They had all held their breath.
He Chenguang stopped firing only after seeing Qin Feng and the others charge through the street ahead. He then jumped down from the tank.
However, it was not yet time for him to rest. Gritting his teeth, he chased in the direction Qin Feng and the others had retreated.
The continuous powerful recoil from his furious firing had slammed against his shoulder, numbing it.
If he had held on any longer, he might have coughed up blood.
He Chenguang took a deep breath and sprinted to the end of the street. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw no more rebels coming.
Shaking his numb shoulder, he didn't slow down and continued to charge towards the dock.
At this moment, after their mad dash, they finally saw the dock.
The warships of Yan Country were docked, their bright flags still fluttering in the wind.
"Quick!"
"Quick!"
Urged on by Qin Feng, they ran with all their remaining strength.
As they approached, the sailors on the warships spotted them. They immediately disembarked to greet them and escort everyone onto the ships.
Arrangements were quickly made: the injured received treatment, and the uninjured were comforted, as the ordeal would undoubtedly leave some psychological scars.
A short while later, He Chenguang, who had caught up, lay weakly on the deck, gasping for breath.
At that moment, he felt as if his lungs were about to burst.
Of course, the most critical issue was his shoulder, which still felt stiff and was likely overexerted.
Fortunately, he hadn't encountered any more rebels during his run. Otherwise, He Chenguang wouldn't have been able to even hold a gun, let alone fight.
Wang Yanbing and Li Erniu, seeing He Chenguang lying on the deck like a corpse, immediately walked over and sat beside him.
Li Erniu looked at the panting He Chenguang and asked, "Chenguang, what's wrong?"
Wang Yanbing remained silent, but his gaze seemed to ask the same question.
He Chenguang forced his eyes open and looked at the two, trying to reassure them. "It's nothing, I'll be fine after a rest, I…"
Before He Chenguang could finish speaking, Qin Feng walked up to him. "Are you really okay?"
Without waiting for He Chenguang to reply, Qin Feng reached out and pulled off his clothes. What greeted his eyes was a blood-stained shoulder.
Seeing this, Qin Feng understood. The strong recoil from He Chenguang's intense heavy machine gun fire had caused his shoulder to bleed.
When He Chenguang was running, he hadn't felt the pain acutely. Now that he relaxed, he realized the injury was far more severe than he had anticipated.
His left shoulder felt almost useless, having nearly lost all sensation. With this level of damage, he wouldn't be able to engage in strenuous activity for at least a month.
Qin Feng looked at He Chenguang's wound and said, "If something's wrong, say it. Don't put on a brave face!"
As he spoke, Qin Feng casually massaged He Chenguang's bruised shoulder a few times.
Suddenly, He Chenguang felt some sensation in his arm, as if he could move it a bit.
"Whoa, boss, when did you learn that!" He Chenguang swung his arm, feeling as if the stiffness had completely disappeared. He felt rejuvenated, though there was still some pain, it was much better than before.
Qin Feng smiled and said, "Learned it casually, don't know when."
Song Kaifei, standing nearby, leaned in and looked at He Chenguang's now mobile shoulder. He said coyly, "Boss, your technique is amazing! Can you teach me sometime?"
Muscle injuries were the most feared on the battlefield, as they significantly impacted combat effectiveness. Just now, if the rebels hadn't been intimidated into not charging, and had they been bolder, He Chenguang might have been in serious trouble.
Song Kaifei looked at Qin Feng expectantly. Qin Feng glanced at him indifferently and said, "You can't learn it!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Tianlong burst into laughter, while Song Kaifei looked dejected.
"Boss, you didn't even teach me, how do you know I can't learn it!" Song Kaifei retorted indignantly.
"This requires intuition, which you lack!" Qin Feng stated plainly.
"Hahaha…" With those words, Xu Tianlong, Wang Yanbing, and the others all roared with laughter.
Hearing their laughter, Song Kaifei felt his heart shatter into a million pieces.
Boss, no love!
While the Red Blood Cell Special Operations Team was bantering and the蛟龙 (Jiaolong) Assault Team was resting, Captain Gao Yun approached with a grim expression.
"Something has happened!"
Seeing Captain Gao Yun's face, Qin Feng immediately knew what had occurred. It was likely about the female reporter.
According to the original plot, the Red Sea operation wouldn't be so simple.
The entire combat process was brutal, and the next mission would be the most dangerous. It was also when the蛟龙 Assault Team would suffer its heaviest losses.
Qin Feng asked, "What is it?"
As Qin Feng had expected, Captain Gao Yun said with a solemn expression, "We just received news that our Chinese-born female reporter is still in the war zone. She saw the Zakka organization kidnapping a group of energy company employees, including one Chinese national. Her name is Deng Mei."
As expected…
