Chapter 557: Choice
Seeing that Wei Lao was asleep, Dewey waved his hand at the mule and the second mule, and the three of them walked out lightly without waking him up.
"How's the old wet going?" The chicken thief guarding the door hurriedly asked.
"The warhead was taken out, but," the mule shook his head, "the conditions here are limited, and I can only give him simple stitches to close the wound, and he will not be able to participate in the next operation." ”
"Need a place to put him?" The chicken thief asked.
"It's better to send him out and let him go to a regular hospital, but now it'......"
The mule shook his head and did not continue.
Everyone understands what he means, if you want to complete the task, it is impossible to divide the manpower, especially since Heishui is also in the war, one less person will have less strength.
Even if Wei Laoshi is not sent away and a temporary resettlement is found, it is impossible to leave people to protect him, and there is also the possibility of being discovered by the enemy.
This is also the reason why the hidden dragon is seriously injured in battle, and often takes the initiative to stay and break the rear, and then fight until the last moment and then die with the enemy.
Under serious injury, if you want not to drag down your comrades and not affect the completion of the task, the only way is to sacrifice your life.
For the wounded, it was a cruel road, but for the sake of the task, for the sake of the Motherland, they did not hesitate.
Everyone else had all eyes on Dewey, and now he was the only one who could make the final decision.
"I just looked at the map, we are now on the basement floor of the mall, the upper floor is the mall, the lower floor is connected to the subway, and the next floor is the civil air defense fortifications, we can place Lao Shi there first......"
"Do you really want to leave the old wet behind?" The chicken thief interrupted Dewey's words with a startled voice.
Although he has been mentally prepared, abandoning his comrades-in-arms is tantamount to torturing his soul, and it is also the biggest pain in the hearts of soldiers.
"It can defend against nuclear weapons, there should be defensive equipment such as radiation gates, and it is difficult for outsiders to get in, which is already the best way." Dewey explained.
"That's right," the mule continued, "you should be mentally prepared for this from the day you join the Hidden Dragon, and each of us may encounter this day ......"
He paused and smiled bitterly: "Abandon your comrades, or be abandoned by your comrades." ”
No one answered, dead silence.
Bang!
Suddenly an explosion broke the silence, and the chicken thief turned his head to look in the direction where the explosion sound came from, and said: "Someone stepped on thunder, only two or three hundred meters away from us, we ......"
He stopped talking and turned his gaze back to Dewey.
"Transfer the old wet to the third basement floor first!" Dewey said decisively.
The enemy is close, and it should be fought first, and there are too many places in the parking lot on the basement floor to carry out street fighting, but it also means that it is impossible to take care of Wei Laoshi, who is still asleep, which is equivalent to giving his hands to the enemy.
If that's the case, wouldn't it be good to go to any trouble to rescue him and let him stay in cold blood?
Hearing Dewey's decision, the others invariably breathed a sigh of relief, which was also the result they most wanted to see, even if it would affect the breakthrough.
"Shepherds, chestnut gods, ducks, come back and rendezvous." Dewey called out over the communicator.
"Roger."
Soon after each of them answered, the three of them came to the outside of the equipment room.
"Let's send Lao Shi to the civil air defense fortifications on the third floor of the basement first, two mules, chicken thieves, you two go to carry Lao Shi, and the others will scatter to cover." Dewey said.
No one raised any objections, and the two mules and the chicken thief immediately went in and lifted Wei Laoshi, who was still asleep.
Even if the effect of the anesthetic had not subsided, even if the operation had left him physically and mentally exhausted, Wei Laoshi remained vigilant enough and woke up from his slumber with a soft hum.
"What's the matter, is it the enemy attacking?" Wei Laoshi asked slightly weakly.
Seeing him wake up, the chicken thief put down Wei Laoshi's legs, supported him with the duck instead, and said, "You don't care, just have a good rest." ”
Although he didn't get a clear answer, Wei Laoshi also understood what was happening, and said, "Let go of me and give me the gun." ”
He struggled hard, but his body was too weak to break free from their arms.
"You're like this, and you still want to work hard and follow us honestly." Duck said.
"Mission first, you put me down, hurry up and break through, I'm fine, they can't catch me." Wei Laoshi said.
Of course, if you can't catch it, the enemy will only harvest a corpse at most, a corpse without any identification mark.
The chicken thief and the second mule secretly added in their hearts, but they didn't let go of Wei Laoshi, and forcibly took him out of the equipment room.
"Xian'er ......"
"Time is tight, let's leave now, if there is anything we have to say on the way."
As soon as Wei Laoshi spoke, he was interrupted by Dewey, and Dewey's five people spread out to form a circular defensive array, protecting Wei Laoshi in the middle and walking towards the stairs.
"Lao Shi, we will put you in the civil air defense fortifications on the third floor of the basement, and you can only rely on yourself for the rest." Dewey said as he walked.
"Okay, that's how it should be."
Wei Laoshi not only did not feel the loss of being abandoned by his comrades, but a satisfied look appeared on his face.
"There is a radiation protection door there, after sending you in, we will destroy the gate from the outside, no one should be able to enter in a short time, and we will come back as soon as possible to take you out." Dewey continued.
"Leave me alone, you go find Garcia and send him back." Wei Laoshi said.
"That's a story for later, I'll ...... then"
In the middle of Dewey's words, his footsteps suddenly quickened, and he dodged to the door of the staircase on the second basement floor, and the assault rifle in his hand followed.
Under the night vision goggles, a dozen soldiers in rebel uniforms can be seen walking from the direction of the subway station.
The soldiers were ordered by Marston to block all exits to the mall, including the exit to the subway station.
They were informed that the enemy inside was a very powerful special forces, and they had to be more careful, and they had kept the sound of footsteps as low as possible, but they still could not escape Dewey's ears.
The soldiers were preparing to set up their positions when suddenly a barrage of gunfire erupted at the staircase opposite, and a barrage of bullets came at them.
The attack came so suddenly that before the rebel soldiers could react, several of them were shot and fell to the ground, and the terrible screams could not even suppress the rapid gunfire.
The others were so frightened that they either hurriedly lay down or looked for cover, raising their guns and firing back at Dewey.
However, those counterattacks obviously did not have any accuracy, and the bullets did not know where they flew, and Dewey stood at the door, not dodging or dodging, and removed the bullets from the gun
Pouring out wantonly, the powerful firepower pinned the rebel soldiers in a corner.
The mule and the others did not stop, and continued to escort Wei Laoshi to the lower floor, only the duck that walked at the end made up for Dewey's bullet when it was about to shoot out, and took over for him to suppress the fire.
Dewey quickly replaced the bullets, but instead of strafing with the ducks, he named the rebel soldiers who thought they could boldly come out under the cover of darkness.
That's right, the rebel-controlled area was cut off from electricity, and everything was shrouded in darkness, and the underground was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers, and only the flashing light of the guns could bring a little light.
But if you can't see yourself, it doesn't mean that others can't see either, and Dewey, who wears night vision goggles, sees darkness as nothing, no different from daytime.
Bang!
After a short burst of gunfire, one of the rebels rolled over and fell to the ground, and his companion next to him, thinking that a stray bullet had hit him, did not pay attention at all, and tried to aim at the duck that was suppressing the fire in the dark.
But in the next second, darkness permanently eroded his vision.
"Call it a day."
The sound of counterattack on the other side completely disappeared, Dewey put away the gun in his hand, beckoned to the duck, and the two left without looking back, and walked downstairs......
Although the shootout was short, and it happened on the second basement floor, the sound still reached the ground, and Jeriman, who was driving towards the mall, frowned when he heard the sound, and looked at Marston in displeasure.
"Colonel, I remember I told you not to let your warriors try to attack them, there is no point in dying like that."
Jeriman didn't have pity for the rebels, and the lives of these soldiers he regarded as cannon fodder had nothing to do with him, but their rash attack would alert the hidden dragon and cause a lot of trouble for the encirclement and suppression.
Marston didn't know Jeriman's thoughts, and couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, and secretly scolded a few words of the group of soldiers who didn't obey orders, and explained: "Mr. Jeriman, I believe that they didn't take the initiative to attack, maybe their whereabouts were discovered by the hidden dragon." ”
Jeriman nodded, agreeing with this explanation, and did not pursue it further, but emphasized: "This is the best, and I hope that your soldiers will fully obey my orders." ”
"Rest assured, they will absolutely obey your orders 100 percent." Marston humbly said.
As he spoke, the car came to the outside of the mall, and more than a dozen cars lined up on the road, and behind each car were a few soldiers with guns on guard, all of whom were pointed at the doors and windows of the mall.
Seeing that his soldiers were so tightly arranged, Marston smiled with satisfaction, and seemed to casually glance at Jeriman next to him, like a schoolboy who had achieved good results in an exam, but was embarrassed to show it but desperate to be recognized by others.
"Colonel, it seems that your soldiers are indeed well-trained and the positions are beautifully arranged." Jereman said.
Marston looked even more smug in his eyes, and was about to thank Jereman for the compliment, not wanting to hear him continue: "It would have been better if they hadn't just pointed their guns at the first floor, but had aimed upwards." ”
Hearing this, Marston noticed that none of the soldiers had pointed their guns upstairs, and at this moment, if someone condescendingly fired from above, the cars that were used as cover would all be furnished, and few of his troops would probably survive.
