Chapter Forty-Eight: A Desperate Situation
The department store was empty, and everyone was hiding. Li Mu rushed into the infirmary, dragged out the shivering doctor hiding under the table, and handed over the two wounded to him.
"You guys are hiding here, their target should be Du Zirui, and they won't rush here."
Because carrying a spear in the city was too conspicuous, Li Mu disassembled the 117M and put it in the gun case. He grabbed the gun case and pushed open the door and walked out.
"Where are you going? I'm going too. ”
Li Mei saw that he had brought all the guns with him, and carried his gun bag on his shoulder.
Li Mu looked at her firm eyes, hesitated, and nodded. He bent down and pinched Li Xuan's cheek.
"Brother went to do something, and Xuan Xuan obediently hid here."
"Hmm."
Li Xuan nodded obediently and squatted in the corner of the infirmary.
Solving his worries, Li Mu stepped on the stairs of the department store and ran upward.
The department store is tall, with 12 floors, and is already one of the tallest buildings in the whole of New Linfen. The view from the top floor is good enough to overlook the entire block.
Climbing to the twelfth floor, Li Mu took out a pistol and pressed one hand on the door at the end of the stairs. Seeing that he was so careful, Li Mei also took out the assault rifle from the gun bag.
"I'll shoot later, your Type 36 gunfire is too loud, and it's easy to reach downstairs."
He lowered his voice and whispered in Li Mei's ear.
The breath in her ears made Li Mei's pretty face blush, and she nodded silently.
Li Mu violently pushed open the door, and two gunmen in black training uniforms were observing the situation on the street downstairs with binoculars, and were caught off guard. He didn't hesitate, he held the gun in both hands and shot at the gunman.
Both gunmen were wearing body armor, and Li Mu aimed at their unprotected heads. Blood splattered, and the two gunmen were shot through the vital points of the head and fell to the ground weakly.
"Are these people accomplices to the attackers downstairs?"
Li Mei asked suspiciously.
"No, they are Du Zirui's men."
Li Mu dragged the corpses on the ground to the blind corner and began to peel off their clothes and change them. And handed the rest of the set of clothes to Li Mei.
"You put it on too."
Free up the space, put the gun case on his back on the ground, take out the parts inside and start assembling. Seeing Li Mei's puzzled face, he began to explain to her.
"This wave of people downstairs has been deceived, Du Zirui has already gotten the news that someone is going to assassinate him, and the three cars downstairs are just bait for him to lure the snake out of the hole."
Li Mu put the rifle on the rooftop.
As the attackers attacked, he subconsciously observed the roofs of the two rows of buildings on the street. In the morning sun, on the roof of a building to the north, there was the reflection of a scope, and a sniper lurking on the roof.
He knew that Du Zirui did not die here, and he even lived longer than all others. Long ago, he had noticed that Ouroboros was starting to get out of control. He quietly disposed of his property in the colony. Before Ouroboros captured New Linfen, it fled back to Zhongzhou.
He ended up much better than the industrialists who were tortured to death by Ouroboros.
"Why are you helping those people downstairs?"
Li Mei picked up the telescope that the gunman dropped on the ground and acted as an observer for Li Mu.
Li Mu hesitated for a moment.
"They're the Brotherhood of Freedom."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Li Mei's expression and found that there was no abnormality in the slightest, and it seemed that she did not know about the existence of the Freedom Brotherhood now.
One thing those attackers have in common is that their skin is fairer than that of ordinary people, although it is very inconspicuous, but if a group of people have this skin, they can be judged by this.
Although the Brotherhood of Liberty was destroyed, they were not content to be driven out of their homes. The hatred has not faded with the passage of time, but has deepened and deepened.
The remnants of the Brotherhood quietly returned to New Linfen. They hid in the pit. New Linfen was expanded from the original settlement of the miners. With the continuous expansion, the original mica pit was also annexed into the city. As a result, the city's underground is covered with mines. These mines are well connected, and no one knows them better than the descendants of these miners.
They have been trying for revenge.
The enemy of the enemy is the friend, and the industrialists have already extended their tentacles into every corner of the new Linfen. He and Li Mei are alone, and it will only be difficult to fight them alone.
The Brotherhood of Liberty is their natural ally.
The Brotherhood of Liberty on the street stripped the Mounties of their equipment. They were very efficient, and it didn't take long for the corpses of the mounted policemen to be stripped of their underwear and piled up in a pile.
Firearms are easy to find on top of the wasteland, but body armor is not so simple. Nylon, Kevlar and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, which are needed to produce body armor, cannot be produced in earthen workshops and need to be imported from Zhongzhou.
The leader of the Brotherhood has not yet pulled out Du Zirui.
"Waste, you can't even drive a scrapped car! If it drags on any longer, the mobile armed police will come! ”
As he spoke, he lifted a bazooka and aimed it at the car.
"Du Zirui, you better hurry up and obediently get out of this iron king, otherwise I will let you become a puddle of barbecue and die in this iron coffin, I will only give you ten seconds to think about it."
"Bang!"
A corpse fell from the air and smashed to the ground, flesh and blood blurring.
"There are snipers!"
"This isn't our guy!?"
"Bang!"
Another gunshot rang out, and the window on the eighth floor of an office building suddenly shattered, and a corpse hung on the window.
The dull gunfire is regular, and when it is fired, a lurking sniper is killed.
"We've been ambushed! Withdraw! Withdraw! ”
The leader's reaction was so responsive that he immediately pulled the trigger of the bazooka.
The rocket is ejected from the launch canister, and according to the process, the rocket engine will start working at a distance of 25 meters from the launch point, propelling the warhead to fly towards the target.
But this time, the rocket was only thrown more than ten meters, and it seemed to hit something in mid-air, and it was smoothly cut in half. The front half tumbled and fell to the ground, the fuse was triggered, and it exploded into a ball of fire. The second half was propelled by a rocket engine and plunged into a garbage can on the side of the street.
In the sturdy bulletproof car, there was a sudden sharp sound of metal grinding. The body, which couldn't even be pierced by bullets, was quietly cut in half.
A tall middle-aged man dressed in white stepped out of the car. In his hand he held an empty hilt with no blade on it.
"Zhang Guangling didn't expect Du Zirui to send him out."
Li Mu took a deep breath, he knew that if the Freedom Brotherhood didn't make other preparations, they would probably be left here.
Suddenly there was a sudden sound of braking on the street, and a heavy truck stopped sideways at the intersection, and three police power armor painted blue and white jumped from it.
