Chapter 442 - 208: Effectiveness Assessment
The head of the medium-built, white-skinned, brown-bearded policeman turned back. He was the sub-commander of Combat Group B. After confirming that Gu Ji was the elder uncle Miliburn had just brought in, he chose not to believe him, "Machine gun team cover, prepare for rescue!"
"Yes!"
Amidst the machine gun fire, two policemen quickly sneaked around from the nearby bushes, one standing behind, the other squatting, forming a crossover high-low position, which is double line fire, slowly approaching the wounded policeman.
Upon reaching the target point, the squatting policeman immediately used his left hand to grab the wounded officer’s back collar while holding the rifle with one hand, symbolically coordinating with the standing policeman behind, continuing to fire suppressively.
This is a very standard battlefield wounded rescue method.
Faced with enemy rifle fire, it can quickly pull the wounded to a safe position for treatment while effectively resisting.
But without resolving the machine gun suppression, especially the vital point of the sniper.
Doing so is extremely dangerous.
"Bang!"
Another gunshot, and the standing policeman’s chest was instantly hit by a bullet, sending him flying backwards, falling to the ground, with a large amount of blood seeping from his chest, "Gurgling..."
The bulletproof vest was completely ineffective.
It’s a heavy sniper rifle!
"Get down! Get down!! Deploy smoke! Quickly!"
Gu Ji hurriedly shouted.
The drug dealers probably also used a large-caliber sniper rifle similar to a Barrett but equipped with a suppressor, altering the sound and flash to some extent.
In jungle combat, gunfire echoes and scatters between trunks and leaves, making it quite hard to accurately determine the position.
These two factors make snipers even more concealed.
The machine gunners, unable to determine the sniper’s position, were firing randomly and couldn’t effectively suppress the sniper.
"Quick! Smoke grenade!"
Realizing his tactical mistake, the white policeman was forced to temporarily follow Gu Ji’s advice.
The crouching policeman, exposed to the enemy’s line of fire, quickly lay behind his fallen comrade as instructed.
Although Gu Ji did not say it outright, the policeman understood his intention.
Indeed.
While using a comrade’s body as cover seems extremely inhumane, at a critical moment on the battlefield, it’s the only and last means of survival.
Otherwise, without cover, that policeman would be like a naked prey in front of a predator!
The sniper could easily squeeze the trigger and kill him!
"Phish!"
With the tear gas detonating, magnesium powder burned, forming a blinding white light, and the smoke spread into a cloud. The drug dealer’s sniper seemed to realize that their "ambush" tactics were seen through, firing one last shot to end the wounded officer’s life.
Until the smoke completely obscured the drug dealer’s vision, the policeman seized the opportunity and quickly escaped.
Miliburn, noticing the smoke from the woods on the left side of the dirt road.
"What’s happening with group B? Why launch the tear gas?"
"Report, Captain, the drug dealers have a sniper, and we lost two colleagues." The white group leader gritted his teeth explained. He hadn’t listened to Gu Ji’s advice earlier for this reason; tear gas, while concealing, also obscures the police’s own vision.
"Damn! Sniper unit, find a way to take him out!"
"Searching!"
Upon Miliburn’s order, the police sniper unit sprang into action.
Within the battle’s gap, the white leader finally looked at Gu Ji: "Looks like you know tactics?"
"I served as a paratrooper for many years, conducting special operations." Gu Ji briefly introduced himself, pointing to the purple bus hidden behind the drug dealers’ convoy:
"Besides the sniper, the most important thing now is to clear the armed vehicle machine gunners near the HVT. We need to find a way to push them southeast, using grenades and grenade launchers to create advancement windows. The terrain is lower there, allowing us to attack from above, avoiding crossfire friendly fire, and achieving multi-angle strikes on the target!"
The white group leader, also a veteran, recognized the feasibility of this tactic at a glance, his eyes sharpening - the elder uncle before him was truly an expert in tactical command.
"Follow Mr. Yasen’s plan! Prepare for tactical advancement!"
The white group leader immediately decided, making eye contact, "Mejisi Luz, deputy team leader of the Torreon National Guard combat group, contact internally with any issues!!"
"Okay!"
Luz’s words acknowledged Gu Ji’s capability.
But for Gu Ji, the most important thing was that he gained partial command!
"Group B requests fire support! Coordinates southeast, 180 meters, near the purple bus, armed pickup truck gunners, pay attention to HVT safety!"
"Received! Preparing to aim!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Another two shadows flew over the head, falling near the edge of the drug dealers’ vehicles, and after a delay of half a second, two explosions echoed.
"Go!" Gu Ji charged out with his gun.
Undoubtedly, this fully-equipped G36 rifle is much more comfortable to use than the one inside the Torreon vehicle earlier, becoming easier to control with the addition of a tactical grip, paired with a muzzle brake for greater stability.
Especially with the added reflex sight, though lacking optical magnification, it’s more precise than iron sights.
"Prioritize taking out the gunners!" As soon as Gu Ji spoke, he raised his gun mid-advance, and with "Tah! Tah!" two shots, instantly took down a drug dealer near the purple bus’s armed pickup truck, "Direction 2 o’clock, target down!"
