Chapter 116: The Remnants of the Army Are Defeated
So for a while Donovan didn't know what to say, in fact, there was nothing to say. Because all the cards that can be played here at the moment have been played and none of them have played a good role, and the other party's tricks are coming one after another, maybe those things that have not been moved will not work at all.
Thinking of this, Donovan sighed and said, "Recall your people." Are we going to the west? Then lead the way, and we'll be out right away. ”
Hearing Donovan say this, Faiz breathed a sigh of relief and quickly turned around and ran out again. Donovan said to Megan, who was already in the car, who was looking at him: "How effective is your contact?" Now it's over. How long will it take for them to arrive? ”
"The reinforcements over there have been assembled, and they should have left Mosul by now." Megan said.
Donovan didn't say anything more but quickly looked towards the prison building, and then said through the intercom: "Listen, everyone, don't want the rest of the things, immediately evacuate to the parking lot, and we will get out of here immediately." Repeat immediately evacuate to the parking lot, we leave immediately. ”
"Understood." After each responding, Pete and Morris and Ochoa quickly exited the prison.
"Morris go drive, Pete, you go too. The others took cover and drove the car out first. Donovan said loudly.
Just as Team 009 had abandoned some of its supplies and evacuated, another group of Iraqi prisoners from the prison was released. These people were brought before this real Marle Potuk. But at the moment, the guy apparently didn't have much interest in these people, because the prisoners who were locked up on the first floor outside the stairwell had already shouted to him that the Americans had withdrawn. I saw that he was not in a hurry after looking outside the stairwell, but turned back and said: "Which of you has ever fought, or rather, fought with the Americans with a gun?" ”
None of the prisoners were silent, but a few of them seemed eager to try. Marle Potuk laughed and said, "I'll give you a gun, and if you still have a bit of guts, come with us." In fact, you have already earned, if it weren't for me, you would only stink here, and it would be impossible to stand here at all. As he spoke, he pointed down the stairwell and said, "This place has been captured by us, and when we go out, we can see the corpses of those dog-legged people who usually show off their power to us." When we go out and destroy all the archives, you will be truly free. And the gunfire outside, if you are not deaf, you should be able to clearly hear that our people are surrounded here. So follow me, this may be the last chance in your life to really fight the invaders like a man. ”
Hearing Malle Potuk say this, one of the few eager people stood up and said, "I fought with the Americans, and that's why I'm locked up here." I'll go with you. ”
"Good!" Malle Potuk nodded in satisfaction, knowing that many times, especially when such an eye makes an important decision, there is the first one to take the lead, and then more people will step up. He glanced at the others and said, "I will release more people in the future, but it will be those who are willing to follow me, and those cowards will let them continue to stink here." ”
His words, coupled with the fact that someone took the lead in standing up, immediately made several other people stand up and explain their own reasons for being imprisoned, and soon these people made Malle not only replenish all the manpower he had lost before, but also make people much more.
"Follow me! Pick up the guns of the dead people outside. I promise you'll get enough weapons and ammunition soon. Mulle Potuk was the first to walk out of the stairwell.
At this point, Team 009 has exited the prison. Outside the prison, Captain Faiz stood outside the prison with two men, two armored vehicles and a Humvee Jeep next to him, but one of the armored vehicles was the Russian-made BTR that had been parked in the prison before.
Faiz walked quickly to Pete's car, knocked on the window and said, "Follow us, don't be left behind." With that, he turned around and boarded the Humvee Jeep, and then the armored car led the convoy to the west side of the prison immediately.
At that moment, at the outpost on the south side where Pete and the others had entered the military-controlled zone, gunfire suddenly erupted. After resisting for a while, several people in government uniforms retreated one after another, and an armored vehicle quickly drove from the side of the road behind the checkpoint to the middle of the road, and then the machine guns on the armored car began to fire fiercely at the north side, apparently trying to cover the retreating men and suppress the enemy who were chasing after them.
It's just that this group of militants who are on the attack are not showing weakness, their attack not only did not weaken but became stronger, and from time to time some of the people who were defeated were shot and fell down or were killed or wounded, and after a while, the people on this armored car seemed to be unable to withstand it, only to see the armored car start and retreat backwards while shooting. But before he could get far, a rocket suddenly flew out of the outer wall of a building on the north side of the road and headed straight for the armored car.
Pete, who was driving west, had the last impression of the armored vehicle that it had been hit. The moment it exploded, the armored car seemed to swing its whack, and then it entered a state of uncontrol. And the people near him also fell to the ground in an instant, and there was no movement.
"It's over here." Ochoa, who was also in the same car with Pete, said, "I hope we don't get hunted down like this." ”
As he spoke, the convoy drove into the western side, an area that had been in ruins. It's not that there is no one here at the moment, on the contrary, there are many Iraqis who have just been defeated and some people who are wearing civilian clothes and do not know whether they are military or civilian. There are a number of figures lying on the ground by the side of the road, and there are people shuttling around them, apparently all of whom have just been injured in this battle.
As the convoy drove past the men, they immediately surrounded the convoy. Obviously, these people who are still alive and can move freely know that this place is no longer defended, and it must be over. So they wanted to get out of here, and the neat convoy clearly gave them hope.
I saw someone stretch out his hand and slap on the car window, shouting as he patted it. And at that moment, Donovan's voice came from the intercom. "Speed up through here."
