Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger-Chapter 948 - 886: Midnight Raid

Mountain Eagle detected the anxiety in Kobe's tone...

He understood the guy's condition, ever since the Refugee Group saved that dangerous batch of prisoners from the Death Angel in the Alaska Sea Area, they've had their eyes on him.

The attention of everyone else was drawn to the events created by the Death Angel, but only the Refugee Group managed to see through part of the fog and touch the tail of the Death Angel.

The problem now is that although Kobe has many clues and resources at his disposal, every time he gets halfway to the truth, the trail breaks off, and there are just too many interferences from higher-ups.

This stirs up suspicion...

The most immediate consequence is that Kobe doesn't know whom to trust, but the broad sweep and search are exactly the tasks that need a lot of manpower.

Mountain Eagle could probably guess what Kobe wanted him for...

Nothing more than to coordinate some resources and relationships through Senator William Hurt, to relieve a bit of pressure, while completing certain missions that the officials cannot directly handle.

Strictly speaking, concerning the dirty bomb crisis, Kobe should have discretionary power, even unlimited violent authority, but in reality, the dirty bomb crisis cannot be exposed before the public, and even within the United States, it remains the secret of secrets.

Once Kobe crosses the line, it'll draw attention from the media, or even investigative departments, mishandling anything could lead to a leak of secrets...

Let the outside world know that two dirty bombs were brought into the United States by terrorists, the consequences would be dire!

Death Angel doesn't even need to detonate them; given the widespread disdain towards the United States, someone else would surely jump in and cause trouble under the Death Angel's name.

The ensuing social upheaval and financial crisis would be unacceptable to anyone.

It's perfectly normal for Kobe to be anxious now...

Mountain Eagle nodded and accepted Kobe's invitation, allowing Blood Fox and them to leave Romania on the special plane of the Department of Homeland Security, it would save them a lot of trouble...

After hanging up Kobe's call, Mountain Eagle said to Blood Fox, "How about contacting Galahad, the old guy is quite a decent person..."

Blood Fox nodded slightly and said, "I'll call him; since it was confirmed that agents sent by the Death Angel are hiding in the 'Bayonet Gang's' territory, we will need more manpower."

Saying this, Blood Fox looked at Mountain Eagle with a smile, hesitated a bit, and said, "Kobe Andrews' men will also be involved in the operation, right?"

Mountain Eagle shrugged and naturally said, "Of course, our targets include the Death Angel's men; capturing them will help track down the Death Angel. The Refugee Group wouldn't miss out on this.

From the intelligence we have, Death Angel has connections with the 'Gypsy Crime Group', the 'Glory Society', the 'White Whale', and the 'Sinaloa Group'. I don't have the time to focus on the first two for now, but I'm deeply interested in the latter two, and I don't mind visiting them under the guise of the Department of Homeland Security."

Blood Fox sighed slightly, Mountain Eagle's way of thinking was completely different from his…

KGB's mindset is to solve problems or simply deal with the problem-makers, simplifying complex matters as much as possible, but Mountain Eagle has been fishing in troubled waters since arriving in Romania.

And conventional 'fishing in troubled waters' doesn't completely summarize Mountain Eagle's current operations…

He's deliberately complicating matters, dragging more unrelated forces and organizations into this deadly game, using the dirty bomb issue to place all adversaries in a disadvantageous position.

This way, he could leverage more substantial forces with a clear mind and advantageous position. He not only intends to assist Kobe in solving the Death Angel issue but also aims to use the Department of Homeland Security to resolve his own problems.

Blood Fox hesitated for a moment, he refrained from insisting on imparting his experience and ideas to Mountain Eagle. Instead, he nodded and said, "As long as you know what you're doing…

That 'White Whale' is tough to deal with, and the Sinaloa Group is even tougher, don't lose big for small gains.

From the moment you accepted the Refugee Group's invitation, the Death Angel became your most important target."

Mountain Eagle nodded slightly and said, "And there's Iblis too...

Remember what happened in Thailand?

I guess it was Iblis who leaked our intelligence to the 'Black Fox'; otherwise, how could 'Black Fox' know so much about us...

I'm guessing since the day you recommended me to manage the Arctic Fox's pension, that guy's been hostile towards me.

Even though I haven't met the two brothers face to face, they've wanted me dead for a while now...

Now the tables have turned!"

After Mountain Eagle finished, he was about to call Camel to find some clothes for the Red-haired Woman when his body paused slightly. The intelligent tactical system sent him an alert…

Through the drone's perspective, a convoy of five vehicles appeared on the roadside of the highway outside the abandoned farm, with a dozen or so gunmen quickly getting off the vehicles and entering the realm of the abandoned farm, using withered shrubs as cover, slowly approaching the direction of the hut.

It was already 5 AM, and the sky in the distance was slightly lit…

The parties across the river had ceased with the arriving dawn, and the chaotic RV campsite had also quieted down.

Mountain Eagle instructed Crow to lower his altitude for reconnaissance…

He wasn't quite sure if those people were after him, but when he saw the direction in which those gunmen were advancing, he frowned and looked at the Red-haired Woman…

Staring at this woman who kept her head down, always appearing weak, Mountain Eagle couldn't figure out what exactly went wrong, but that didn't stop him from responding to the current situation...

"Someone's coming..."

Mountain Eagle picked up his VSS and, while walking out, said, "Five vehicles, 19 people, armed with automatic weapons.

Blood Fox is injured, stay behind to watch this woman.

Mi Lu to the rooftop, Eddie, Camel, let's go out to meet these people..."

Camel, upon hearing this, frowned and tore off the thermal blanket on the Red-haired Woman, pressed her to the ground, inspected her carefully, and, after confirming she had no electronic devices on her, picked up the suitcase they brought back, pulled out a pistol, and used it like a hammer to smash the conspicuous electronic lock...

With a crisp "click," the panel of the electronic lock was smashed off, revealing a small circuit board...

Camel leaned in for a closer look, shook his head at Mountain Eagle, and said, "The lock on the case has a locator; they probably pinpointed us when we opened it."

With that, Camel forcefully pressed the muzzle of his gun into the wound on the Red-haired Woman's shoulder, causing her to let out a painful scream...

"Who are the people coming?"

The Red-haired Woman, having said so much earlier, certainly wouldn't seek trouble by concealing the identity of the reinforcements at this time. She used her unharmed left hand to grip Camel's gun slide tightly and cried out painfully, "Bright Ladder, the ones coming are assassins from Bright Ladder...

The information inside the case about you all was collected by 'Bright Ladder'..."

As soon as the Red-haired Woman finished speaking, a large-caliber bullet pierced through the window of the stone house, hitting the fireplace in the center of the living room, startling Eddie, who was organizing equipment.

He instinctively dropped to the ground and, hearing the gunfire that came slightly after the bullet, shouted loudly, "TAC-50, at least 900 meters away, they have a sniper..."

As Eddie yelled, another bullet shot into the stone house from a different angle...

This time the large-caliber armor-piercing incendiary round not only pierced through a side stone wall, but the core exploded when it hit inside, emitting a high-temperature flash like welding...

"Shit, southeast direction, 700 meters, armor-piercing incendiary round, Teflon composite core, this thing is used for armored vehicles.

Be careful, they're not necessarily here to rescue..."

Mi Lu's shout made everyone tense up immediately; rescue and silence are two different things, and their responses needed to be different.

Mi Lu awkwardly dropped to the ground, put on his bullet-proof vest, and clutched his SVD sniper rifle as he moved towards the back of the house while sticking to the ground...

"The angle inside the house is bad, I'll find a position at the back door, release smoke bombs, you handle the enemies nearby, I'll try to deal with the two snipers...

The enemies are experts, stay calm!"

At this point, Mountain Eagle, through Crow, had already located the two snipers. They remained on the road, shooting inside the farm from their cars, without entering the farm area with the others.

The best thing to do in this situation is to throw smoke bombs and then retreat from the back of the stone house to avoid the snipers' field of fire...

But doing so would expose them to the enemy raiding team's gunfire.

As Mi Lu quickly shifted along the ground, Mountain Eagle and the others risked throwing smoke bombs out of several windows, creating the illusion they were retreating from the back door, while obscuring the enemy's sight.

Camel and Eddie took advantage of the rising smoke, rushed out from the front door, and each leaped to the ground, quickly crawling to the low wall one meter outside the house.

The seasoned Camel grabbed a piece of mud-soaked rag during his crawl...

Upon reaching the base of the low wall, he slowly raised himself using the gun to push the rag, and only when he confirmed the enemy couldn't penetrate the smoke to pinpoint his position did he stand up, burying his head under the rag, and through the scope, targeted the enemies already within a large 300-meter range.

Eddie couldn't find anything to conceal his body and muzzle, but the old guy had his own method.

He lay at the base of the wall, used a knife to pry open a few stones, and in his movements, he ingeniously created a shooting hole.

Mountain Eagle watched as Blood Fox knocked out the Red-haired Woman and tied her hands behind her back. He, armed with both an AK-105 and a VSS, quickly exited through the back door and climbed onto the roof using a stick.

The tiles on the roof were almost entirely rotten, but the rafters still served some purpose...

Under the cover of the smoke, Mountain Eagle climbed to the ridge of the roof, positioned his gun muzzle at the base of the chimney, and aimed at the approaching enemies.

As the breeze swept across the plain, the smoke from the smoke bombs quickly disappeared...

Watching the attacking enemies begin to divide forces, a group of 12 approached slowly from the front, while another 7 flanked around using the farm's debris and bushes for cover...

Mountain Eagle flexed his fingers and softly said, "Open fire..."

"Da da, da da..." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
