Chapter 219
Chapter 218, sniper! Can he still rebel?
Southeast of Benghazi city, 11 o'clock local time——
After two hours of hiding, the four members of the special team finally escaped the enemy's pursuit.
Thanks to the early attention to the problem of clothing and equipment, Captain McTavish led Sanderson and others to rummage through an abandoned house and found some shabby clothes that the original owner had not had time to take away.
In order to prevent everyone from being regarded as enemies by the refugees and to prevent them from reporting their whereabouts to the pursuers, all four of them changed into rebel attire and wore their original bulletproof vests under their shabby clothes.
After dressing up like this, the four of them were able to get away from those damn pursuers.
"Head, Sweep's wound collapsed and needs to be re-bandaged. Shall we take a rest?"
Allen, who was supporting Sweep, noticed that the other party's thigh was bleeding, but Sweep had no intention of saying anything and quickly greeted the captain who was walking behind.
"I'm fine, don't worry about it, just leave quickly..."
Sweep didn't want to drag down the entire team because of himself, not to mention that his injury was not that serious.
Upon hearing this, the captain quickly walked to the two of them and leaned over to check the other's thigh regardless of Sweep's obstruction.
However, it doesn't matter if you don't look at it. When you look at it, you are shocked. The wound that was originally bandaged has burst open at some point, and the blood has penetrated into the gauze and has soaked the trouser legs.
"Why don't you say anything after everything is like this?"
The captain took the tactical medical scissors handed over by Allen and cut open the old gauze. Then he took out the medicine from the medical bag he carried and rebandaged Sweep.
"I'm afraid that what happened just now will delay everyone. It's okay. I suffered an injury of this degree when I was in Afghanistan a year ago. It has no impact."
Sweep smiled, acting unimpressed.
The captain knew that Sweep didn't want to delay everyone's schedule or drag the team back, so he didn't say anything more.
After re-treating the wound three times, he was ready to take over from Allen and let him support Sweep and continue on the road.
However, at this moment, a silent sound of breaking bricks suddenly entered everyone's ears.
Bang!
Sanderson, who was on guard, only felt something flying past him at high speed. He was experienced and immediately realized that it was a sniper from the enemy!
"Sniper!"
With a loud shout, Sanderson rushed towards the bunker on the side, and then he realized belatedly that the enemy's shot just now was aimed at him.
When the captain heard the sound, he quickly pulled Allen aside and squatted down, hoping to use the cover of the low wall to avoid the enemy's sniper attack.
"Can you determine the enemy's position?"
Sanderson shook his head. Judging from the impact point of the bullet, the enemy was roughly in front and right of the ruins where they were currently.
"It should be roughly between 1 o'clock and 3 o'clock. It's hard to determine the position. The guy probably used a silencer. I didn't see any gunfire!"
The captain looked in the direction indicated by Sanderson and saw that there were three buildings within 200 meters that could be sniped at.
This does not include several other houses 200 meters away. Every window on those buildings may be a hiding place for snipers.
"We have to get out of here quickly. If the other party can spot us in such a dim environment, they are probably equipped with night vision goggles, or even thermal imaging!"
Sanderson did not doubt this possibility at all. After several previous battles, he now felt that no matter how sophisticated the equipment that the guys brought out, it was not too much.
Who knows what those damn arms dealers are selling here?
"No, I think we have to find that guy, otherwise we may have difficulty moving forward."
The captain knew very well that the enemy was in the dark and we were in the open. If our side could not find the sniper as soon as possible, they would only become a living target for the opponent's gun.
What's more, Sanderson was right, the other party was obviously using night vision equipment, and everyone probably lit up like fireflies in his eyes.
Thanks to that guy's poor sniping skills, otherwise Sanderson would be a dead man now!
"Alan, you cover Sweep on the path, Xiaoqiang, let's go find him!"
Instead of hiding in a corner and becoming the enemy's toy, the captain chose to actively seduce the enemy. As long as he could trick the enemy into firing again, he was confident of finding that guy!
Sanderson is not a hypocrite, and he also understands the principle of darkness and darkness. If they don't find that guy now, they may only get beaten.
"You can't kill me even with a sneak attack, how can he turn against me? Fuck him!"
"You left me right, I'll count to three and then we'll go out together and trick the guy into shooting again."
Sanderson agreed, then stood up from the corner, ready to climb over the wall.
Following the captain's order, the two of them moved at the same time, then separated to the left and right, and ran straight towards the next bunker in both directions.
However, it seemed that the enemy had no time to react, and the two did not hear the sound of bullets passing by.
"What's going on? That guy didn't react?"
"Probably not. He is waiting for a 100% chance."
The captain thought for a while and decided to try again, even if he had to get shot, he still had to find the guy.
"Xiaoqiang, move slower this time. I'll move first. Wait for my command before moving again."
"good."
Sanderson responded simply, then his eyes widened, waiting for the captain to give the order.
After a simple countdown of 3, 2, 1, the captain moved. His speed was slightly slower than the previous round of action, but he also rushed into the bunker not far away within 3 seconds.
At the same time, Sanderson quickly popped his head out from behind the bunker, trying to see the enemy's position from those buildings.
However, this time the enemy did not shoot again. Even though Sanderson's head had completely leaked out of the bunker, the other party had no intention of shooting.
In the same way, after Sanderson finished moving, the captain did not notice that the enemy was shooting.
"Is it a stray bullet?"
Alan was a little unsure. After all, this is a war zone. It is not impossible for a stray bullet to fly from a very far distance and then accidentally fall next to Sanderson.
"It's possible, but it's unlikely. Let's go around and take a look."
To be on the safe side, the captain decided to go around with Xiaoqiang from the side and take a look at the nearby buildings.
The two tried several more times, but there were no more bullets coming from that direction. The captain simply rushed to the nearest building with a rifle.
After searching for a while, he only found two refugees in the corner of the building, and did not find any trace of the enemy.
"I found nothing here, only two refugees."
"I don't have any here either, this broken house has collapsed."
In order to prevent the refugees from exposing their whereabouts too early, the captain gave the two people the compressed biscuits he carried with him, and after a brief exchange, he confirmed that they had not seen any enemies nearby.
"It seems to be a stray bullet. I don't know if you are lucky or unlucky, Xiaoqiang."
The captain breathed a sigh of relief and teased Sanderson on the communicator.
However, the next second, Allen's exclamation came from the communication channel...
