Chapter 780 What exactly happened in Heixiazigou?
"Boom! Boom!"
Two 14.5mm armor-piercing rounds tore through the cold night, their sharp sound like steel whips lashing the air, and they crashed into the low rammed earth wall behind Sun Laowai!
Yes, Lao Wang didn't even aim at Sun Laowai's swaying head; it was too close!
What he needs is to be steady, accurate, and ruthless.
The moment the bullet hit the wall, the frozen, crumbly rammed earth crumbled away, and then the entire section of the wall exploded like frozen tofu being smashed by a heavy hammer!
Grayish-brown fragments mixed with ice shards flew everywhere, and even more terrifying was the muffled thud from behind the wall.
Blood mist, mixed with bits of flesh, splattered on the crumbling wall. Sun Laowai didn't even groan. His upper body, which had been swaggering around just moments before, vanished almost instantly, leaving only half of his right arm, covered in mink fur, hanging limply from the severed end. Blood droplets fell onto the snow, spreading out a small patch of dark red.
Standing next to him, Liu Daba felt a scalding heat hit him head-on!
Looking to the side, Sun Laowai was nowhere to be seen. Only his lone right arm remained, spinning as it fell to the ground. The huge hole in the wall was still shedding dirt, and behind him was a fan-shaped hell that looked as if it had been torn apart by the claws of a giant beast.
Liu Daba was so frightened that his whole body stiffened, the homemade gun in his hand trembled incessantly with his fear, and he couldn't utter a sound.
However, the devastating lightning left him no time to react.
Almost at the same time the gunshot rang out, Engineer Chen in the driver's cab abruptly switched on a temporary power switch!
Swish-!
On the roof and front of the armored vehicle, four oversized halogen searchlights, modified by Jiangxia and directly driven by high-power generators, instantly burst forth with intense white light comparable to a small sun!
The terrifying burst of light, condensed into a pillar, was like a giant axe of light that cleaved through the dark night, completely engulfing Liu Daba, who was dumbfounded and covered in blood and gore, and a small area around him!
The blinding light caused instant blindness! Liu Daba let out a painful, inhuman howl, instinctively releasing his grip on the hostage's neck and abruptly raising his arm to cover his stinging, tearing eyes.
The woman, whose neck had been choked for a long time, was already showing signs of suffocation. Now that she was free, she lay on the ground, panting heavily.
The moment he raised his hand to shield his eyes, the armored vehicle's engine roared with extreme rage!
Jiang Xia had already floored the accelerator!
The vehicle wasn't speeding straight ahead, but rather with an extremely subtle, minute yaw! Just before the front of the car was about to hit the low wall, Jiang Xia suddenly swerved the steering wheel!
Bang! Crash! Boom—!
The heavy front of the armored vehicle plowed into the gap in the wall that had just been torn open by the 14.5mm bullet at a tricky angle with perfect precision!
This angle was determined by Jiang Xia after mentally simulating it more than ten times while staring at the scanner data: it avoided the left side where the hostage was located, and could also use the gap in the wall to generate force. Just before the front of the car hit the low wall, Jiang Xia gently turned the steering wheel again, and the heavy front of the crash vehicle plowed into the gap torn open by the bullet with a "bang"!
The rammed earth wall was utterly vulnerable to this violent mechanical force, smashed and crushed like paper! Bricks and mortar flew everywhere!
Without pausing, the armored vehicle, with its crushing force, precisely passed between the woman and Liu Dabalai, using its sturdy right side to "brush" against Liu Dabalai, who was still covering his eyes and screaming in agony, as if swatting a fly!
"Bang!" A muffled sound.
Liu Daba felt as if he had been hit from the side by a bull running at high speed. All his screams stopped abruptly, and he was lifted off the ground, rolled uncontrollably half a circle in the air, and then crashed heavily onto the frozen ground five or six meters away like a sack of potatoes. He rolled a few more times and then fell completely silent, passing out unconscious.
The broken musket in his hand had long since flown to some unknown corner.
The woman who was being held hostage was close to the wall and on the other side of the armored vehicle. She was only startled by the strong wind and dust kicked up by the vehicle and was not hit in any way.
However, her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground. Looking at the steel behemoth that seemed to have descended from the heavens, she was so frightened that she couldn't even cry.
Jiang Xia slammed on the brakes, and the armored vehicle slid a short distance across the snow and broken bricks before coming to a steady stop. Outside, Sergeant Cheng and his men pounced out from their concealed positions like cheetahs, their movements swift as the wind!
Someone instantly subdued the unconscious Liu Daba, handcuffing his arms behind his back; someone carefully helped the still-shaken hostage up and quickly moved him to the back; and someone else vigilantly pointed their guns in the direction where other bandits might be hiding.
The entire operation was swift and efficient, and the situation was brought under control in an instant.
Jiang Xia turned to look at Old Wang and gave him a thumbs up: "Irritable!"
Old Wang only managed to fire two bullets, regretting that he couldn't finish off Liu the Scarface with a full magazine. However, watching Little Dumb Hair's performance in maneuvering the vehicle, he gave him a thumbs up in great admiration: "Precise!"
However, seeing the grime on the windshield, Old Wang's heart sank again.
Damn, last time that little rascal witnessed a headshot up close, it took him a lot of effort to recover!
Seeing the silly boy turn around, Old Wang had a sudden inspiration: "On this occasion of capturing the bandit leader and rescuing the masses, according to our old tradition, how can we not compose a poem to add to the festivities?"
Besides, you're the kind of guy who received a collection of poems personally from the old man. If you don't come up with one now, wouldn't you be disgracing him? Hurry up and write one!"
Jiang Xia's face fell upon hearing this. His talent for writing bad poems had long since deteriorated with each act of rationalization. He used to be able to manage to produce something after struggling for a while, but now he didn't even know how to begin...
"Enough with the nonsense!" Old Wang gave him a hand. "Go back to the back row and think about it! Even if you're going to compose a crooked poem, it has to have the spirit of our battle!"
As he spoke, Old Wang grabbed the naive kid and made him sit in the back row.
Jiang Xia had no choice but to finish with a bitter face, then held his head and started thinking: "A bullet pierces the wall with two 'thuds,' a lightsaber cleaves the night brightly... No, that's too corny..." He muttered to himself, scratching his head, sometimes reciting "An armored vehicle crashes into a wall like breaking tofu," and sometimes thinking of "Liu Daba La flying into the sky," but he couldn't come up with a decent sentence for a long time.
Ignoring the silly boy, Old Wang searched for a while and found a piece of cotton yarn under the driver's seat, gesturing to Chief of Staff Cheng who came to check the situation.
Chief Guard Cheng immediately understood, quietly circled around to the car, and took the cotton yarn handed to him by Old Wang.
The darkness provided the best cover. When the guard captain's fingertips touched those sticky marks, he moved even more gently, wiping them away bit by bit, even picking out the bits of flesh from the crevices with his fingernails, afraid of leaving the slightest trace.
Old Wang peered out the car window, whispering a warning: "There's still some light under the lamppost, wipe it carefully! Don't let Xiao Jiang see!"
Chief Guard Cheng nodded, then moved to the lamppost and wiped it twice more until his fingertips could no longer feel the stickiness before nodding to Old Wang.
Just as they finished wiping it down, Jiang Xia, who was in the back row, popped out, clutching his head: "Aha, I've got it!"
"Gunshots shattered the low wall in the cold night, beams of light cleaved through the darkness, a single ramming of the iron cart wiped out the bandits, we protect the people's fortress! How about that?"
"Clap clap clap clap," a round of applause rang out from inside the armored vehicle.
After clapping, the elderly geologist couldn't wait to get off the bus.
