Chapter 57: The Choice

Pete, who had been pulling Eric, immediately felt that something was wrong with Eric, to be precise, Pete didn't just feel it, as the person who had been responsible for protecting him, Pete could clearly feel that after the first exchange of fire with the other party and the start of the escape, Eric's physical fitness had a serious problem, and at this moment it was just more serious to the point where it was unsustainable.

Pete looked back and said, "How are you feeling?" Without waiting for Eric to answer Pete, he continued: "Hold on, we're not out of danger yet, you have to hold on." ”

Pete didn't say anything, but as soon as he said this, Eric immediately lay on the ground like a deflated ball without even sitting down.

Eric gasped hard as he said, "I can't even feel my legs." I.. I can't run. ”

"Get up." Pete tried hard to pull him up, "unless you want to fall into the hands of the Russians." Don't say you don't know who these awesome guys are for. ”

Hearing Pete's words, Eric sat up hard, and after subconsciously touching the bag on his body, he gritted his teeth and stood up again.

"Go on." Pete looked forward as he helped Eric, maybe it would be nice to reach the hill above.

Eric didn't say anything more, and now talking had become a very physical thing for him, so he stepped forward again with Pete's help, although each step was very difficult, and a voice in his head kept shouting "Stop, stop." But as soon as he thought that his career and life would be ruined if he fell into the hands of the Russians, and that all the efforts and efforts he had made over the years would be in vain, Eric felt that he had mustered up his fighting spirit again and walked out step by step.

While Pete and Eric were struggling to escape, Donovan, who was still in place, inexplicably got a brief respite. After a fierce firefight, they were surprised to find that when they were about to be destroyed, the opponent's firepower quickly weakened, and they seemed to actively disengage from contact.

However, as the commander of the squad, Donovan quickly thought of the other party's attempt. In fact, this is not difficult to do, and if it is only a war between Ossetia and Georgia, there is no need for the enemy and us to fight until now. Isn't it okay to run away? But from the firefight to the present, the other party is not only ruthless, fierce and fierce, but also relentlessly chasing. Pursuing their own team even though they have chosen to avoid the fight in a row, it is clear that they are not just fighting a simple battle, but they have an intention against us, and this attempt is clearly the Eric they have been protecting. So at this moment, the other party suddenly withdrew from the battle, undoubtedly because they found that Eric had left, including the previous sudden attack but extremely restrained and accurate shooting, which can be explained, that is, they are afraid of accidentally injuring their target, and they want to capture Eric alive.

Thinking of this, Donovan immediately looked in the direction that Pete and Eric had run out, and after scanning back and forth twice without finding their figures, he quickly withdrew his gaze to look at the Man-Shark Squad and the Georgians who had been killed and wounded.

There weren't many people who were still moving at the moment, except for Ellie, who had been by his side, Donovan saw Ochoa first, and at the moment he was checking Jeff's injuries by Jeff's side, but after a quick check, Ochoa sat aside in annoyance.

Donovan could tell from Ochoa's movements that Jeff was finished. Still, he walked quickly to Jeff's side. I saw a patch of blood on Jeff's chest, judging from the shape of his fall, the bullet took his life directly after it hit, and did not bring him any pain or any chance to struggle.

Despite this, Donovan reached out and touched Jeff's pulse, and after making sure that he had indeed lost his pulse, he withdrew his hand and subconsciously rubbed his face to look at the others.

I saw that Matt was trying to move Evans away from Morris's body, and next to Matt was Steve lying on the ground without moving, at this moment Steve closed his eyes, not knowing whether he was dead or alive, but judging from the situation on his body, he should not have been shot. Next to Steve and Matt lay several Georgians, all dead except for one who was slowly crawling towards a tree.

Donovan came to Matt's side first, and after helping Matt remove Evans from Morris, he took a look at Evans' condition. The old man was still unconscious, but his heart was beating and breathing, and there were no new scars on his body. Morris, on the other hand, was not very good, and a bullet hit him in the left side of the abdomen, where blood was gushing from the wound.

"Chili!" Donovan quickly looked back at Ochoa, "Come and see." Morris is still alive. ”

Donovan's shout brought Ochoa, who had lost his nerve from Jeff's death, to his senses, and he quickly got up and quickly came to Morris's side after glancing at Jeff again, and as he dealt with Morris's injury, Donovan quickly looked behind him. He knew that he and the others were still not out of danger at the moment, not only were they not out of danger, but on the contrary, they were becoming more and more dangerous. He was now faced with a choice, whether to take the man with him and leave, or to continue chasing in the direction where Pete and Eric had fled.

There is no doubt that support is needed on both sides at this moment, but the number of people who can really move is extremely limited. The only people who can still have combat effectiveness here are Avery and Ochoa, and he and Avery are both injured, although Ochoa has no problems, but he is needed here to take care of the wounded. You can't rely on the Georgian who is sitting against a tree, his eyes glazed and completely frightened, right?

But if they don't support Pete, then from the current situation, it will be difficult for Pete and Eric to escape each other's pursuit. If it is Pete alone, then it is good to say, Donovan has sufficient confidence in Pete's ability, but Eric is different, from Donovan's observation when he ran all the way, he already knows that even if Eric still has the physical strength at this moment, it is difficult to run past the Russians who chased him along the way. This means that it will not be long before Pete and Eric will be overtaken by the Russians and then killed or captured alive. What's even worse is that he may not be able to escape here, and he still has to face the situation of annihilation here. But Donovan didn't hesitate for long, and after a few moments he made a decision. He looked at the others and said, "We need to get out of here." You have to leave no matter what. After speaking, he looked at Matt and said, "Matt, can you go by yourself?" ”
