Chapter 72: Chapter 72 After-sales Service
This place is called a mine area, but it actually resembles a small community with walls.
It's not a mine that has started mining at all; it's actually the residence of Lu Jun and the agricultural experts.
There's a simple cement highway in front of the community, and now there are several dozen black guys gathered there, shooting wildly as if they want to charge the community's main gate. Yet, the occasional bullets fired from inside the community make them hesitate.
Compared with the thunderous but rainless situation at the gate, the warehouse location to the northwest of the community is much more intense.
The warehouse's position in the mine area had been arranged by Captain Wang and his men into a trap using shipping containers.
Unfortunately, the enemy was very astute; they didn't charge in themselves but instead forced a team of 15 Karman people to rush in.
Lu Jun and bodyguard Li hid in a shipping container pretending to have protective steel plates, watching through the firing holes as several Karman were shot dead inside the 'trap'. Just as he was about to cheer, he saw a few bullets hit the container diagonally opposite them.
"It's that sniper again, the bastard is up in the trees, I can't see him; Donkey, take care of those Karman, I'll go around to find a position," Joe Ga whispered.
As Captain Wang was giving orders, a voice came over the radio, "Boss Wang, the Karman at the gate have brought armed pickups and RPGs. We might not be able to hold on for much longer. Shit, be careful~"
Hearing the explosion through the radio, Lu Jun stuck his SCAR out of the firing hole and fired a burst, taking down the last two Karman, then looked nervously at bodyguard Li and said, "Those people won't fall for traps and just send Karman to die. What do we do now?"
Bodyguard Li was a skilled fighter from a field unit; he shook his head and said, "Let's wait and see, and if it really doesn't work, we'll retreat to the dormitory. Those Karman definitely can't break in."
While saying this, bodyguard Li looked at the tense Lu Jun and said, "This time you have to listen to me. The moment the main gate is breached, you must immediately call for help from the Peacekeeping Troops.
We can't risk the lives of those experts and professors, nor can we let those security personnel act recklessly."
As bodyguard Li spoke, several bullets struck the container they were in.
The container's outer shell couldn't stop the bullets, but the added steel plates inside performed rather well.
"Bang" "Bang" two loud blasts made Lu Jun, inside the container, cover his ears in discomfort.
Then the explosion noises of RPGs from the direction of the main gate made Lu Jun exclaim in shock again.
The situation hadn't actually deteriorated to such an extent, but Lu Jun, who was participating in battle for the first time, was nonetheless terrified.
Just as he took out his phone, unsure what to do, his phone suddenly rang...
"Boss Lu, seems like a lively battle you've got there; need our help?"
Hearing the voice on the phone, Lu Jun, as if grasping a lifeline, shouted excitedly, "Brother Wolf, help, please help, we can't hold the gate much longer."
"Keep your men within the community perimeter; I'll disperse those Karman."
Bodyguard Li, seeing the strange expression with which Lu Jun hung up the phone, asked excitedly, "Was it Hu Lang?"
Lu Jun nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, it's him."
Bodyguard Li said, "You have to warn them about the sniper outside..."
Before bodyguard Li could finish his sentence, they heard the sound of helicopters in the sky, followed by a string of machine-gun fire.
Rushing to the firing hole, looking in the direction of the main gate, they saw two Little Bird helicopters positioned diagonally to each other, the side doors of the aircraft open, and two machine-gunners firing down at the Karman militia.
The machine-gun tracers lashed the ground like glowing whips, and two armed pickups with mounted machine guns were hit first, shredding the drivers and gunners to pieces.
Bodyguard Li heard the radio calls and finally shouted, "Don't worry, these are the helicopters our boss purchased."
There was a moment of silence on the radio, then a rugged voice said, "Shit, they offer this kind of service when you buy aircraft now?"
"Captain Wang, the Katrin people at the main gate are almost all dead. Should we ask Boss Lu to send these reinforcements to take a stroll around the west side?"
......
Lu Jun's mining area was easy to locate, and Joe Ga and his team, after refueling once, arrived at the vicinity of the mine around 8 p.m.
Sitting in the helicopter, Joe Ga saw the battle taking place in the mining area below and decisively made a call to Lu Jun.
The moment he hung up, Joe Ga turned to Karman and shouted, "Open the cargo bay, let's give those Katrin people a little surprise."
Then, in the radio, Joe Ga called out to Nis, "I'll head south, you head north; don't fly too low, there seem to be RPGs down there."
The Gazelle's maneuverability was excellent, and right after Joe Ga finished speaking, he worked the joystick and the helicopter instantly pulled away from Nis's, looping around to approach the Katrin people near the community gate from both sides.
Visibility was poor at night, and although the Katrin people on the ground could clearly hear the sound of the helicopters, they could only vaguely see their positions.
By the time they realized they should run for the woods on both sides, it was too late.
The two PKM machine guns mounted on board were equipped with oversized infrared sights, and with tracer rounds to guide their fire, dozens of Katrin people were trapped on that narrow road.
Some of them, when faced with the helicopter assault, chose to kneel and surrender.
Antar's gunfire spared them, but as more people chose to kneel and surrender, Karman's machine gun swept over...
Those hit by the machine gun died terribly; flesh and blood flew everywhere, causing the remaining survivors to panic and start fleeing blindly.
Occasionally, someone who managed to get into the woods stayed alive by luck, whereas those who fled along the cement road were quickly caught by the machine gun bullets and killed on the spot.
In just a few minutes, Joe Ga and his team hadn't met any substantial counter-attack and had already crushed the Katrin militiamen. Get more stories at m_vl_em_p_yr
Helicopters are indeed the infantry's worst nightmare; even Joe Ga and his team, who had never undergone aerial shooting training, managed to produce overwhelming results relying on their aerial superiority.
The Katrin people were really no match, but under these circumstances, even if SEAL Team had come, the outcome would not have been much better.
Because even if they had RPGs, they wouldn't have been able to lock onto the helicopters in these visibility conditions, and the idea of rifles shooting down helicopters was sheer fantasy.
After the Katrin people at the main gate were dispersed, Lu Jun called again.
Joe Ga piloted the helicopter and conducted a patrol around the community as Lu Jun had requested, finally landing slowly in the open space of the warehouse area.
After shutting down the engine and disembarking from the helicopter, Joe Ga greeted Lu Jun, who was running over from afar, with a smile. He shook hands with Lu Jun firmly, then grinned and said, "Boss Lu, was this 30% surcharge worth it?"
Lu Jun was taken aback for a moment, then nodded vigorously and said, "Worth it, definitely worth it, utterly worthwhile.
Wait a second, Wolf Brother, I happen to have a seriously injured person who needs to be evacuated. Could you have your people take him?"
Joe Ga was startled for a moment, then decisively shook his head and said, "It might not be possible. Don't you have pilots? I've handed over the helicopter to you, you can do whatever you want with it."
Lu Jun, upon hearing this, said with resignation, "Wolf Brother, you don't understand, I've been targeted by a sniper.
Among my security, only Captain Wang can fly a helicopter, but he's also our only sniper.
Without him, I just don't feel secure."
"A sniper?"
Joe Ga asked curiously, "So a professional sniper has got you in his sights?"
As Joe Ga looked at Lu Jun's frustrated expression, he chuckled and said, "Well then, considering we're compatriots, for a hundred thousand bucks, I'll deal with the sniper outside for you. Consider it after-sales service."
