Chapter 34: Warm-up Shootout
Whoosh β
Lead bullets rang out, making a fatal sound in Jacob's ears.
Crackling sawdust flying!
The upper part of the caravan was so baddened by buckshot that it was like a colander and almost fell apart. Jacob calmly shrunk into the driver's seat, his hands slamming the reins as he drove the caravan as fast as he could.
He didn't care what to take, so he drove the caravan into the blooming roses. The emerald green rose branches and leaves with spikes hit the horse's body, marking blood marks one after another. The horses neighed and rampage in pain, crushing the thick lawn and bringing up countless flying flowers and fallen leaves, like a magnificent rain of roses.
The bottles in the carriage clanged, and Jacob's cold sweat flowed down like a spring. Although the gunfights he experienced in later generations were much more brutal than this, at least he didn't sit on the explosives pile at that time. If a stray bullet hits a box full of ammunition, the fun will be great.
Molotov cocktail incendiary bombs, detonator explosives, black powder, white phosphorus incendiary bombs......
Just thinking about it makes goosebumps erupt all over my body and shiver!
If it weren't for the flat terrain of the rose garden, if it weren't for the thick lawn on the ground, if it weren't for Jacob's belief that he had strengthened the boxes very well, and if it weren't for the concern for the safety of Eve and Sophie, Jacob would never have been so desperate to rampage through the rose garden.
"MD, come up and kill you!
Jacob was full of doubts.
Didn't it mean that Anthony Wade, the Hand of Death, coveted Sophie's beauty? Why did his men come and kill him directly? He didn't care about Sophie's life or death. Isn't Sophie's beauty no longer attractive to Anthony Wade, the Hand of Death?
I didn't have time to think about it, so I quickly found a place where stray bullets couldn't hit the caravan, and hurried to rescue Eve and Sophie.
Jacob knew that there was a warehouse in front of him in the rose garden, which was some distance from the gate, and even if a stray bullet reached here, it would not be lethal.
"Phewβ"
Jacob grabbed the reins of the caravan and stopped it, and before the horse's hooves could fall, he grabbed Henry's M1860 and jumped out of the caravan, turned around and ran towards the gate.
The gunfire on the other side of the gate has stopped!
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
Hearing the gunfire stop, Jacob Gujingbubo's heart suddenly became anxious. He never worried about anyone before, and he never cared about anyone's life or death.
Wow β
The two shoulder blades on Jacob's back are like white cranes flapping their wings to drive their arms to swing rapidly, and the air flow between the two arms is whirring and exploding, as if there are extra wings out of thin air. His trouser legs split directly into rags, revealing two dark blue muscles and tendons, and the calves and tendons fell together as if their hearts were beating. Anyone who sees it knows that there is infinite power in it!
Knock Knock Knock β
If when Jacob assassinated James, he was as quiet and graceful as a cheetah, now Jacob is like a cannonball out of the chamber, exploding, violent, direct, and without the slightest dragging mud and water.
Each step is more than ten meters away. And every time Jacob landed, it was as if dynamite had been planted, and there was a muffled thud, and the lawn exploded, and dirt splattered with the turf.
"Eve, Sophie, how are you doing?"
Jacob roared anxiously as he ran.
Although Jacob is not a good person, just a killer with blood on his hands, he is by no means a cold-blooded and ruthless person! After two days of getting along, Jacob has deeply liked this lawless time and space, and also likes Eve and Sophie, two completely different girls.
Just like, not love.
"Fuck! These bitches raised by bitch! How dare you ambush the old lady?! I'm going to kill you!"
"We ...... It's okay...... You don't want to ...... Don't come here!
Eve's loud curse and Sophie's frightened voice came at about the same time.
"Thank goodness, don't be afraid, wait for me!"
Jacob let out a long sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, finally letting go of the worry and fear in his heart. He was terrified, afraid that something would happen in the short time he had driven away that he would regret it. Before he could get close to the fence gate, several gunshots erupted, and lead bullets flew past Jacob's Eve. Jacob dodged behind a marble sculpture on the side of the road, then peeked into the fence gate.
I saw eight or nine gunners standing outside the gate on horses, either two revolvers or lever guns in their hands, standing arrogantly outside the gate, their guns pointed in the direction of Jacob. The majestic horses neighed and kicked their hooves from time to time, and the gunners on the horses were dressed in typical cowboy attire. Greasy, dirty shirts, vests, trench coats, bullet belts, revolvers, cigars and marijuana in their mouths.
Looking at where Eve and Sophie are, Jacob understands why Sophie says dangerous.
It turned out that Eve and Sophie dodged the initial gunfire and ran away into the rose garden in panic. It's just that the entrance to the rose garden is almost a flat river, except for the fountain and the two marble sculptures on both sides of the road, there are only half-human-high rose bushes, and nothing else is blocked.
The rose bush can't stop the bullet, and the sculpture is a little inner. In desperation, Eve grabbed Sophie and hid in the fountain, lying on the edge of the pool and shooting at the mob outside the door. There is only a little more than twenty meters between the fountain and the fence gate, and the two are almost in a straight line.
Between the gate and the fountain were two corpses, and a horse was neighing. Apparently the Wade Brotherhood wanted to rush in just now, and then they were shot dead by Eve. So at this time, the people of the Wade Brotherhood did not dare to rush in, and Eve and Sophie did not dare to come out of the pool. The two sides are deadlocked here.
Although the fountain no longer sprays water, there is still water in the pool. Eve and Sophie crouched in the clear water, facing the fence gate, their revolvers sticking out of the edge of the pool in the direction of the gate. It's just that they don't dare to stick their heads out.
Bang bang bang β
Bullets struck the marble sculpture where Jacob was hiding, splattering splinters of debris.
"Hey, hey, hey...... Kid, you come out! Don't you want to duel with our Wade boss? Don't you want to fight to the death with our Wade Brotherhood? hehehe...... Our boss said, as long as you survive today...... Hey, hey, hey...... Then he'll have a fair duel with you at Bronke's church......"
"Hey, hey, hey...... As long as you can get out of here alive today!"
There was a burst of arrogant and cruel words from the door, like a grinding wheel rubbing against metal, and the voice was low and sharp.
