Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger-Chapter 951 - 888: Attacked from Both Sides

The sudden situation left Mountain Eagle without time to think about what was happening...

The best choice for them now is to retreat; staying here will only lead to being surrounded. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"Retreat, retreat, Blood Fox drive, we're retreating..."

While Mountain Eagle loudly called for his companions, he opened the SUV's trunk, putting the unconscious Red-haired Woman inside, then followed and sat inside himself, using two safety ropes to hook onto the trunk hooks, securing the other end to his belt.

After finishing, Mountain Eagle looked back at the still unconscious Red-haired Woman, then slapped the seat forcefully and shouted, "Get in, get in, we're retreating..."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle pressed the radio and shouted, "Galahad, do you have a car?"

From the radio, Galahad decisively said, "We have a car, we'll meet on the highway."

Listening to Galahad's seemingly emotionless tone, Mountain Eagle couldn't help but ask, "Did you finish your business?"

Galahad paused for a moment and said in a deep voice, "No, there are still 4 Round Table Knights left, Arthur is still in London, and there are some debts I must settle with him.

Mountain Eagle, you're interested in 'White Whale,' right? Let's cooperate; finding Arthur will lead us to 'White Whale.'

I just want him dead..."

After thinking for a moment, Mountain Eagle nodded and said, "No problem, let's meet first, and then in ten hours, we'll leave Romania on a Department of Homeland Security special jet."

Galahad on the phone sounded a bit surprised and said, "Department of Homeland Security? The United States Department of Homeland Security?"

Mountain Eagle felt the vehicle slightly vibrating, glanced back at Blood Fox, who started the vehicle, then said into the radio, "Yes, the United States Department of Homeland Security, now Arctic Fox is an operations consultant for the Homeland Security Refugee Group..."

Galahad was silent for a few seconds and suddenly said, "You're not giving up, you want to rebuild Arctic Fox?"

While keeping an eye on the convoy in the distance through Crow, and Gypsy Gang members trying to cross the river using small boats, Mountain Eagle said, "It's not really rebuilding, there are still people alive in Arctic Fox..."

After a few seconds of thought, Galahad said, "Mountain Eagle, can you leave a place for Robbin?

He's one of the best young people I've seen, he should be in the best team, not with an old man like me to stubbornly guard a practically defunct 'Holy Grail Knight.'

Mountain Eagle was a bit curious upon hearing that and said, "You still intend to continue with the Holy Grail Knights?"

Galahad was silent for a moment and says, "Gao Wen and the others are dead, they deliberately let me kill them.

Now their debts are cleared...

Mountain Eagle, I've learned something from Arctic Fox, sometimes death is not the end; those who live must continue with the responsibilities of those who are gone."

Mountain Eagle was shocked, his expression somewhat complex, and said, "That lunatic Lamalock, and Lancelot and Perceval are not dead, right?

Otherwise, you wouldn't have a reason to want to persist!"

Galahad's voice was deep as he said, "That's a secret, please don't leak it out before I resolve the Round Table Knight's issue.

The Round Table Knights are outdated old men, now each of them owes huge debts, and the only way to resolve their debts without implicating their families is death.

They have no way of refusing the creditors' orders..."

"Understood!"

Mountain Eagle nodded slightly and said, "The ambush in Constanta was a planned act, except for you and Robbin, the others actually aren't dead either.

The four Round Table Knights at the Tiriac Bank originally wanted to die, but only dying in agreement with the debt cancellation terms makes their death worthwhile!"

Galahad spoke heavily, "No, in fact, only us four old men and Robbin are alive, everyone else is dead.

Lamalock and the others are now heavily wounded, Gao Wen and the others sent them through the 'Sin Eater' channel to Hungary for treatment."

Speaking with a pause, Galahad said heavily, "Mountain Eagle, Gao Wen and the others have no feelings for the other Holy Grail Knights, but I can't do that, those people were found by me one by one, I must be responsible for them.

I need money, so I want to find Arthur and White Whale...

But Robbin is still young, he has his own life, he shouldn't be with an old man like me guarding a practically defunct Holy Grail Knight."

Mountain Eagle cut off communication, turned to look ahead, Mi Lu stood among the incoming convoy, holding a TAC-50 sniper rifle, waiting...

Just as Blood Fox loudly called Mi Lu to get in the car, Mountain Eagle's tactical glasses suddenly started vibrating and emitting red light at the edges...

It's the smart tactical terminal air raid alert!

Mountain Eagle instantly pulled off the safety rope on his body, kicked open the rear trunk cover, and shouted, "Get out of the car, quickly get out and find cover..."

In the midst of shouting, Mountain Eagle didn't forget to pull the limp Red-clothed Woman out of the car, dragging her down the embankment beside the vehicle.

Blood Fox and the other old guns reacted even faster, getting out of the car while grabbing their ammo packs, tumbling down the embankment like Mountain Eagle, then rolling and crawling along the ditch below the embankment for ten meters or more.

A few seconds later, with no movement detected, Eddie asked on the radio, "What happened?"

Mountain Eagle hadn't received an air raid alert before, but he knew the smart tactical terminal would not issue an alert without reason.

Just as he was controlling Crow to climb altitude to identify the source of the threat, two small UAVs plunged from above, hitting the SUV they had just vacated with a whistle...

"Boom, boom"

The explosion power of the UAV was not great, but it still pierced the roof of the SUV and exploded inside. If Mountain Eagle and the others had been in the car, they would definitely have been done for.

At this moment, Mountain Eagle understood that Crow's inability to spot them was due to the limited number of UAVs, insufficient altitude, and the fact that the enemy's UAVs were too small and flew too high.

When the UAVs dove down, he confirmed through Crow's view that they were 'Switchblade 300' lightweight suicide UAVs.

The explosion's power wasn't strong, but this realization still caused a cold sweat to break out on Mountain Eagle's back...

"The enemy has suicide UAVs, we can't drive anymore. Move, head east, there's a forest over there..."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle pressed the radio and shouted, "Galahad, abandon the vehicles, move east, we'll regroup in the forest over there..."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle stood up, slinging his gun over his back, holding the red-clothed woman with one arm, grabbing a bag filled with weapons with the other, and sprinted east while shouting, "Mi Lu, collect the enemy's leftover large-caliber ammunition, we need to buy time..."

Mi Lu embraced a large TAC-50 sniper rifle in both arms, shouting as he ran, "I hit those two snipers, but neither of them is dead...

I found 35 bullets in the car nearby, barely enough...

There's another gun in the front business vehicle, there should be more bullets there."

"I'll go..."

As Mi Lu finished speaking, the youngest among the old guns, Eddie, leapt up and dashed towards the business vehicle a few hundred meters east through the shade of roadside trees...

"You guys go first, I'll catch up with you soon."

Mountain Eagle and his team didn't wait for Eddie, aside from Mountain Eagle, everyone else had already endured back-to-back battles, and Blood Fox and Camel were both injured at the moment, needing to conserve every bit of strength...

Camel looked at Mountain Eagle carrying a gun and holding people and weapons with hesitation, then after taking an antibiotic for his injured shoulder, quickened his pace voluntarily to act as a vanguard.

Meanwhile, Blood Fox chose to stay behind. The old fellow knew that today wouldn't end well, so he simply started improvising IEDs with explosives from his bag, preparing for a surprise when the enemy pursued.

Mountain Eagle couldn't spare any hands now, carrying almost 100 kilograms of gear, he sprinted nearly a kilometer before rushing into a forest area.

This was a moderately sized coniferous forest, so even in winter, it retained a hint of green...

East of the coniferous forest was a small river, and across the river was a large expanse of idle farmland.

This region had flat terrain, no complicated features for cover, with only the coniferous forest barely serving as a shelter.

Meanwhile, there were two hostile forces: one was the convoy rushing along the highway, and the other was the gang gunmen coming from the farm's west across the river from the Gypsy Camp.

Mountain Eagle was unclear about what was unfolding; he only knew a tough battle was approaching...

To handle the forthcoming battle, he had to fully utilize the coniferous forest and the open environment around it.

Long-range sniping and setting bombs were the best approaches; as long as enough time was bought, when the Refugee Group reached Bucharest, the situation would flip.

Actually, Mountain Eagle could request aid from the Romanian authorities, asking them to dispatch SWAT teams for assistance, but the sudden appearance of the Bayonet Gang and the determination shown by those earlier Bright Ladder gunmen made him have doubts.

In this country, ordinary citizens would blockade the government due to a mayor embezzling 60,000 Euros...

There were instigating factors within, but there's also the saying 'the more something is lacking, the more it's valued'!

Mountain Eagle wasn't deeply familiar with Romania, but habitually, he would think less of a new place during interactions.

Thus, he abandoned the idea of requesting help from Romania and decided to stay here and hold out against the opponents.

Once the Refugee Group lands, the situation will reverse...

While his mind raced, Mountain Eagle's hands were still busy; he stuffed the red-haired woman into a large tree hole, then picked up seven or eight plastic bottles nearby, slicing them in half with a knife...

Next, he pulled out some pre-prepared TNT explosives from his bag, cut them into several small blocks with a knife, inserted remote detonators, mixed them with stones and steel balls, then stuffed them into the half a plastic bottle.

Given the positions of the explosives' charges, unless they're struck from close range or hit a vital spot, causing fatal damage is unlikely.

However, the purpose of these improvised IEDs is to delay the enemy, creating plenty of injuries among them, which can be remarkably effective.

As Mountain Eagle quickly prepared ten or so cheap IEDs, ready to lay them out, Galahad's voice suddenly rang through the radio...

"The gunmen from the gang at the camp are heading towards the forest. Robbin and I will flank them, looking for an opportunity to inflict casualties."

Mountain Eagle packed the proposed explosives into a bag and rushed out of the forest, speaking as he began setting them up: "They have lots of manpower, can you two handle it?"

Galahad didn't directly answer Mountain Eagle's question but confidently said, "You'll see soon enough...

Watch their weapons. These people originally came to escort the meth factory's relocation, so they have a considerable amount of heavy weaponry.

Moreover, they've bribed the nearby police, so there won't be police trouble here for a while."
