Chapter 685: Project Uranus (2)

Throwing the cigarette butt on the ground and snuffing it out, Qin Lei dragged the large suitcase beside him. When the box was opened, there were several large pieces of metal tightly fastened to the grooves of the styrofoam. Skillfully taking out the components, Qin Lei kept working for a while, and more than ten seconds later, with a click of the card slot butt sounded, a sniper rifle with a beautiful shape and full of modern atmosphere appeared in his hand.

This gun is a special assassination rifle specially made for the Einsatzgruppen of the Intelligence Bureau, it is composed of six large components, the caliber is seven millimeters, the effective range can reach about one thousand meters, this gun has high accuracy, good stability, and can also be fired semi-automatically, and at the same time, in order to avoid exposing the target, the gun body is also coated with a layer of matte paint to prevent the reflection of sunlight.

In this special operation operation, Qin Lei's target is the commander of the 51st Army Corps in Boston, General Calder, which is also one of the most important tasks of the Einsatzgruppen. As long as he is killed, the entire legion will be thrown into chaos, and then there will be no reinforcements to the port of San Diego. Snapping the six-fold sniper scope into the groove on the upper part of the rifle, Qin Lei tried the feel of the gun, and he felt quite satisfied.

At this time, a group of cars drove towards the large compound six hundred meters away from the bell tower, which was the temporary residence of the corps headquarters, according to the intelligence bureau, the two-star general Calder would come to work at this time every day, and most of the long convoy was guards.

The two-star Admiral Calder was very vigilant, in order to prevent the car from being attacked, the car he rode in every day was not fixed, which made it difficult for Qin Lei to lock on to the target directly, he could only swing the barrel back and forth, waiting for the moment when the target got out of the car.

Admiral Calder was in a bad mood today, his sleeve was scratched by the doorknob when he went out in the morning, and even his arm was scratched with blood, so he went to the regimental hospital to bandage it, and changed into a new military uniform and came to the regimental headquarters, fortunately, he went out early, so he did not delay the time to go to work.

Although he didn't delay anything, the two-star Admiral Calder was still in a bad mood, he vaguely felt that something unfortunate was going to happen today, but as a soldier, he had never believed in fate, so he only regarded himself as nervous and didn't care too much.

The convoy stopped in front of the headquarters, the guards on the car quickly jumped out of the car, pulled out the blockade line within a hundred meters nearby, and all the idlers and others were driven out, the guards stood solemnly with their guns in their hands, and looked nervous with their bows and knives unsheathed, it seems that in wartime, the defense of the Boston Imperial Army is still very tight, at least in their own opinion, it has reached the highest level.

Qin Lei looked at a residential building with only five floors a hundred meters behind the bell tower, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which would be his escape route. Turning around, Qin Lei adjusted his breath and put his right eye on the lens of the sniper scope. The comfortable butt on the cheek and the ergonomically designed back shoulder made Qin Lei feel very comfortable, his fingers slowly put on the trigger, and at the same time he felt his heartbeat, trying to control his breathing and heartbeat in the same beat.

An adjutant-like person was opening the car door, obviously a big man was sitting in the car, seeing the adjutant's movements, Qin Lei immediately moved the muzzle of the gun, and the cross in the middle of the scope was put on the car door. A few seconds later, a fat old man in the uniform of a two-star general slowly squeezed out of the carriage, he stood in front of the door and lit a cigar and took a leisurely puff. In the high-powered scope, Qin Lei saw the appearance of this person clearly, he was the target he was looking for, the commander of the 51st Regiment of the Boston Empire, General Calder.

Calder felt the closer he got to the headquarters, the heavier the uneasiness became, and by the time he got out of the car, he was already so bored that he wanted to lose his temper, so he had to light a cigar and take two puffs to calm his mind.

At this moment, Calder suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and a sense of danger came to his heart, this is the sixth sense that he has been in the army for many years and has fought the battlefield, and he is usually very effective, and even saved his life many times on the battlefield.

When this feeling reappeared, Calder was shocked, and he immediately knew that he was already in danger. Subconsciously, he wanted to lie down to avoid danger, but it was too late at this time, and Qin Lei, who had already aimed at him, finally pulled the trigger. A seven-millimeter sniper rifle bullet came out of its chamber and slashed through a space of more than 600 meters at a speed of 900 meters per second, hitting Calder's chest in that instant.

The kinetic bullet rushed backwards with Calder's body and slammed directly into the car behind him, shattering the car's glass completely. The bullets from the sniper rifle tumbled inside him, crushing everything in his chest, and then the bullet shot out of his back, blasting a large hole in Calder's back, and he didn't even have a last word, and he choked on the spot.

"There are assassins, there are assassins." The adjutant immediately shouted, and his shout alarmed the nearby guards, who immediately surrounded Calder and the lieutenant in order to prevent a possible assassination, while the outer guards immediately began to search for the Assassin.

"There." A well-eyed guard saw the figure of Qin Lei on the bell tower, many guards immediately opened fire, the bullets hit the bell tower and made a thumping sound, and the broken bricks flew everywhere, and many guards ran towards the bell tower, trying to surround the bell tower and capture Qin Lei alive.

"It's really not slow." Qin Lei smiled and muttered to himself, then he slung the sniper rifle cross-body on his back and picked up a steel-armed crossbow from under his feet. The steel-armed crossbow carried a crossbow arrow with a sharp three-edged barbed head, and a rope tied to the end of the arrow, one end of which was already fixed to the stone pillar that supported the bell tower.

Aiming at the five-story residential building, Qin Lei's eyes narrowed slightly, and the powerful crossbow arrow shot out instantly, penetrating the cement chimney on the roof of the residential building a hundred meters away, and hung there firmly. Qin Lei grabbed a small winch on the rope and gradually tightened the rope. The winch has steel inverted teeth, which allows the rope to be tightened and not loosened.

Qin Lei held the steel arm crossbow tightly with both hands, hung a card slot on the crossbow on the rope, and then used force with both feet, and his body instantly hung the rope. Holding the upper part of the crossbow body, Qin Lei instantly slid over a distance of 100 meters like a bottle, and soon arrived at the roof of the opposite building.

With both hands letting go of the crossbow, Qin Lei took advantage of a forward roll to unload the momentum, he got up and went downstairs along the ladder of the skylight. The noisy guards outside are still running around the streets, and the piercing sirens are ringing throughout the city, it seems that the city-wide search has begun, Qin Lei knows that the most dangerous time has just begun, and he must escape outside the city under a strict search, otherwise he will not be able to survive.

"Hurry, hurry, he's here." A group of guards had already rushed to the downstairs of the residential building, and it was clear that he had been spotted by the guards who were surrounded by them. Secretly scolding for bad luck, Qin Lei, who had just walked to the third floor, had to turn back. Climbing onto the roof again, Qin Lei covered the lid of the rooftop exit.

Suddenly, Qin Lei's face showed a strange smile, he took out a grenade from the pocket inside his clothes with his backhand, and tied its pull ring to a thin wire, the grenade was stuck on the lid handle, and the wire bypassed the handle, extended outward, and finally tied to the root of a clothes pole.

After doing all this, Qin Lei nodded with satisfaction, and then he observed the nearby terrain and found that a nearby building was only four stories high, but it was only four or five meters away from the building where he was. He took a few steps back, then suddenly accelerated forward to sprint as fast as he could. Qin Lei stepped on the cement eaves of the roof with one foot, leaned forward and exerted his feet, and at the same time stretched his body as far as possible. Qin Lei soared into the air and slid across a distance of four or five meters, and stepped on the roof opposite.

When he landed, Qin Lei was hit by a sniper rifle, which made his waist a little sore, he knew that he couldn't continue to run with the gun, and if he still carried this heavy rifle, I am afraid he would not be able to run away himself.

Neatly dismantling the rifle into parts, Qin Lei hid them separately, and some parts were even thrown away on the opposite roof. Seeing how difficult it was for others to find full gun parts, he immediately jumped in through the skylight of this building. As soon as Qin Lei left, the skylight lid of the five-story building was opened, and with a bang, the two guards who were walking in front were killed on the spot.

The search has been going on, and there is no sign of relaxation, and Qin Lei's escape has not stopped for a moment. The escape of one day and one night exhausted Qin Lei's physical strength, and at this moment he no longer had the ease and freehand he had at the beginning.

The Boston Army was a single-commander system, and after the death of Commander Calder, the Legion was leaderless, and the army could not be mobilized until a new Commander was sent by the higher-ups.

The inability of the army to mobilize is limited to large-scale mobilization and combat, and the inventory in the city was carried out quite quickly, and those Calder's cronies personally led the team to search and arrest in the entire city, and the tightness of the search network made it difficult for Qin Lei, the best special soldier, to escape.

Panting heavily, Qin Lei's eyes were blood-red, he hadn't slept for a day and a night, and he had to get rid of the pursuit with high-intensity movements and running, even if he was physically strong, he was a little unbearable. In the space of twenty-four hours, he stormed the level three times, but each time he was hit by a barrage of bullets, and even almost injured in one case.

Although Qin Lei escaped the counterattack of the other party three times, he was completely exhausted because of this, and he had to give up the plan of the fourth attack and move to this small alley to catch his breath.
