Chapter 1202: Mystery
The murderous government forces did not seem to intend to give us a chance to escape, two main battle tanks drove out from the street corners on the east and west sides, and the 105mm caliber barrels directly locked onto the abandoned building.
"Damn it!" I threw myself down on Heidi next to me, grabbed her head and pressed her under me, not because I cared much about her, but because of a man's instinctive reaction.
"God, I don't want to be cannon fodder!" Eric screamed and lay in the corner to protect the beautiful reporter.
"Boom!" Two loud bangs in succession, the explosion collapsed half of the already crumbling abandoned building, and the shells hit the second floor, although the shrapnel and shock wave did not hurt us on the first floor, but the collapsed stones and collapsed concrete walls fell overwhelmingly.
The heavy dust filled the surroundings, the pungent smell of cement choked so hard that I didn't even dare to breathe, the collapsed wall fell from above, and smashed around me.
I pressed my nose against Heidi's back, then covered her mouth and nose with my hands, and closed my eyes, as soon as I opened a slit, the dust would squeeze in, making it painful.
After a few minutes, the chaos gradually calmed down, and we were all buried under the rubble, covered in thick dust and rubble, but luckily there were no big stones on me, and even then I was bruised and swollen and wounded.
I don't know if God knew that I still had an unfulfilled wish, so he deliberately left this rotten life, or if I was lucky enough not to be stoned to death by the wall, in short, I survived, but I knew very well in my heart that everything was not over yet, and the government army should come up after the bombing.
I had to get out before they rushed over, or there really wouldn't be any way to live, and thinking of this, I got up from the pile of rubble with my hands on the ground and gritted my teeth, shaking my head, and the dust and stone chips fell down with a clatter.
Got up in disgrace and didn't care to check if she was injured, and quickly pulled Heidi up, she was crushed under me and there was nothing but dust and blindness.
I looked up at Eric's position, God forbid him as he crawled out of the rubble, but it looked like his left arm had been smashed and seemed to be broken, and he was hanging on his shoulder and couldn't move, and his face was covered with dust, and he couldn't see what he was.
"How? Can you still walk? I asked hoarsely.
"Hehe, it's okay, I can't die!" Eric smiled bitterly and reached out to touch his left arm, only to grin in pain.
"Then let's go, if they catch me, I promise it will be a hundred times worse than now." I stepped forward to help Eric, Heidi pulled the reporter up, and volunteered to carry her, now Eric and I have no strength to care about her, let alone who saves whom, everyone has their own destiny.
I turned my head to see that hundreds of government troops were less than 30 meters away from us, and they were rapidly approaching, and the distance was too close, and the possibility of a few of us trying to escape unharmed was getting smaller and smaller.
"Whew!" I let out a sigh of relief, stared at each other, and shook my head at a few people, there is no other way, can I go one by one.
"God forbid, their bullets can't hit me!" Eric drew a cross on his chest, then turned around and ran.
Behind the building was our only escape route, but we also had to cross an open area of nearly ten meters, and if the enemy wasn't blind, they would definitely find us, so Eric would pray that the bullets wouldn't hit him, although it was a bit nonsense, but there was no other way.
A few of us crawled out of the shattered window in the back, looked at each other, nodded at the same time, and rushed to the opposite side as fast as we could.
As expected, as soon as we appeared, we were discovered by the enemy, who seemed determined to kill us, and in an instant dozens of people opened fire violently, and the overwhelming rain of bullets and mountains rushed over like a tsunami, and we had no room to fight back except to run.
But the distance is too close, even if the enemy's marksmanship is so bad that it is useless, blind can beat us into a sieve.
I hung up on the first shot, the bullet went through my ribs through my clothes, cutting a gaping hole more than three inches long, and the hot pain made me gasp and grin forward.
Then Heidi's thigh burst into a ball of blood, and she fell to the ground with a thud, and the beautiful reporter also fell from her, turned over and was hit in the ass by a stray bullet, and screamed in pain.
Eric, I and I couldn't protect ourselves, we couldn't help anyone anymore, and I even felt that this time I was afraid that it was really coming to an end, and at the critical moment, seven or eight grenades flew out of nowhere and landed exactly next to the government troops.
In an instant, the explosions were continuous, and in the deafening sound and firelight, dozens of government soldiers fell to the ground wailing, although we don't know who sent the charcoal so much, but finally gave us a chance to breathe.
Eric, I dragged one by one, dragged two women, and rushed through the small square in front of us, and when the enemy gunfire rang out again, we had run to the opposite street, and then quickly turned into an alley.
The bullet crackled behind me, but luckily it didn't hit us, and I held Heidi in one hand, gasping for breath as I ran.
Sweat seeped into the wound on my waist, the hot pain made me clench my teeth, and Eric behind him was no better, with a broken arm, and a woman on his shoulder, beads of sweat dripping down his cheeks, if it weren't for my presence, I guess he would have thrown the reporter on his shoulder, he was so kind, it was completely for my face, and he always thought that these two women were my friends, in fact, I didn't even know what the female reporter's name was.
Everything that affects our survival should be destroyed, this is one of the rules of survival for mercenaries, only today, Eric and I have made exceptions.
As I was running down the alley, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side and pulled me into a small door, and I thought I had encountered an ambush again, so I threw away Heidi, who was caught under my armpit, and reached out to pull out the gun, but the man moved very quickly, slashed at my wrist with a knife, and then instantly pulled out the pistol from my waist and put it against my head, while my other hand drew the saber almost at the same time and pressed it against his lower abdomen.
"Don't move, beware of misfire!" The guy said coldly.
"Who are you?" He wore a hood and only showed two eyes, and I couldn't see what he looked like, and I couldn't tell if he was friend or foe.
"There's a lot of nonsense, I advise you to deal with the wound first, otherwise your blood will run dry." As he spoke, the guy lowered his pistol, spun it around his index finger, threw it at me, turned and walked to the door.
I took the pistol and frowned, this mysterious guy had a familiar look in his eyes and a voice that he had heard somewhere, it was a friend, but I was sure that he was by no means Caesar's brother.
