Chapter 4084: Chapter 4072: All-Out Cover for Group Two’s Retreat
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
In the control room, Qiu Yuluo observed the situation below.
There were more than 40 enemies below, three times the size of the second group.
In terms of sheer force value, the second group’s people could easily wipe out these enemies.
But this wasn’t the island; the "Tilia Convention" didn’t apply here.
With both sides holding hot weapons, if there’s a huge gap in numbers and ammunition, they would still be at a disadvantage.
And their ammunition was almost exhausted; if the opponent launched a large-scale attack, it would be hard to hold on.
The biggest advantage right now was the destroyed staircase; even if they had numbers, they couldn’t get up at this point.
As for how long they could hold out, Qiu Yuluo didn’t know; everything was up to fate.
The people below also knew all the members of the Central Guards Brigade had taken refuge in the control room; the stance between enemy forces and them was clear, and the objectives were obvious.
The enemies below wanted to come up, while the second group aimed to prevent them.
The longer they held on, the greater the hope for survival.
"Can we get in touch with the first group now?" Qiu Yuluo asked without turning her head.
"All signals are jammed; we haven’t been able to establish contact."
"Now we can only leave it to fate."
By now, the second group had finished resting and all gathered at the control room’s windows, setting up weapons and doing everything they could to stop the people below from coming up.
Faced with this situation, the enemy below didn’t know what to do for a moment.
Under normal circumstances, ropes could be used to climb and get to the second floor by other means.
But now, with people guarding the control room, any other actions might open up chances for them; no one dared to take such a risk and everyone was stuck here, at a loss for what to do.
"Contact the commander to ask for his opinion."
The liaison officer opened the communicator, trying to reach the commander outside.
"Falcon One, the enemies have moved to the second-floor control room; the staircase is destroyed; they have taken advantageous terrain. What should we do next?"
The signal was sent out, but there was no response; the communications officer tried again with the same result.
"What the hell is going on? At this moment, we can’t even make contact. Are these people useless? Did they jam their own signal?"
The communications officer cursed, trying once more to get in touch, still with no response.
"Alright, forget about the people outside."
The bald commander spoke:
"Team one and team three cover; team two prepare to go upstairs."
"Yes!"
Team two members took out ropes and headed to the side far from the control room to prepare for climbing.
Members of teams one and two held weapons, aiming at the control room, ready to shoot if the second group’s people dared peek.
Bang, bang, bang!
Seeing the enemy taking out ropes preparing to climb to the second floor, Qiu Yuluo fired several shots.
At precisely this moment, the enemy’s firepower surged, forcefully suppressing Qiu Yuluo.
"These bastards sure have some skills."
Hu Yangtian leaned against the wall, hesitating to move; though prepared to die, nobody wanted to perish in a place like this if they could avoid it.
Bang, bang, bang!
The firepower suppression didn’t stop; the increased enemy numbers didn’t leave any breathing room for the second group.
After several minutes passed, the enemy’s entire squad had climbed to the second floor using the ropes.
With alternating cover, those who climbed to the second floor began a new round of shots, creating opportunities for the rest below.
Several minutes later, those below also climbed up the ropes; during this time, the second group also attempted counterattacks but achieved little.
Upon seeing the enemies on the second floor, the second group’s members appeared calm, fully prepared for and anticipated such a circumstance.
To them, everything was fate.
Bang, bang, bang!
Bullets fell like raindrops, and the control room’s windows and glass shattered; the second group’s members had to retreat to the side, taking cover behind machinery, but attempted counterattacks while retreating.
Due to the firepower gap, their counterattacks felt weak, yet Qiu Yuluo and Hu Yangtian hadn’t given up, constantly seeking opportunities.
No matter what, they held advantageous terrain; during the enemy charge, six were slain.
"Leader, things aren’t looking good; we need to prepare for sacrifice."
"Even if we’re sacrificing, let’s take more enemies with us! Damn it!"
Qiu Yuluo cursed, replacing her magazine.
"This is my last one, how about you?"
"I have half left."
"What about the others?"
"I have the most left; two magazines I can share a bit." The medic said.
"No need to share; after getting pressed down like this, let’s go all out. Make sure to save a bullet for yourselves; we’re Central Guards Brigade people; we can’t die at the hands of these lowlifes."
"Understood!"
The second group prepared for the final stand, faces fierce and ready to take someone with them at the last moment.
Bang, bang, bang!
Bang, bang, bang!
Bang, bang, bang!
"Who goes there?!"
The sound of dense gunfire and enemy exclamations came from outside; the second group’s faces changed instantly, glancing out.
Suddenly they saw four vehicles racing in from outside, firing at those on the upper floors, catching them off guard.
"The first group’s reinforcements are here!"
The second group exclaimed in surprised delight.
Even if the enemy outnumbered them, as long as the first group arrived, there was still a fight!
Using vehicle cover blocked many enemy bullets.
During the charge, some repelled the second-floor fire strike, others attacked the walkway’s support, though with limited effect.
Meanwhile, the second group launched an effective counterattack, quickly suppressing the enemy’s firepower.
Seeing the attack process not as smooth as imagined, Lin Yi drove at the forefront, crashing into the walkway’s support.
Boom!
Under immense impact, the walkway collapsed instantly.
Those on the second floor lost balance, falling down.
"Damn it! Where did these people come from? Are all the guards dead? How could anyone get in?"
Bullets rained down on them.
More than forty people were completely annihilated in an instant.
Just then, Lin Yi’s shout came through.
"First group, listen! Get out, clean the battlefield, and fully cover the second group’s retreat."
