Chapter 2050: Shocking
A few black shadows rushed over from Ye Jian’s left and shouted loudly. They made too much noise and became the targets of White Crane and Azalea.
The two of them were about 30 meters away from Ye Jian. When they heard the noise, they hunched their backs and rushed forward like cheetahs. In the blink of an eye, they rushed a few meters forward.
“I’m still 20 meters away from you. Azure Bird, hide first!” The two of them kept in close contact with Ye Jian so that she would understand that she wasn’t fighting alone.
After White Crane finished speaking, Azalea said, “Don’t expose yourself so easily again! Leave the target who spoke for us to deal with.”
Although the terrain of the island was complicated, it was only so big. These people were also very familiar with the environment on the island. Now that they had already locked down the range of the Azure Bird’s activity, if she did any more actions, her hiding spot would be completely exposed. She would really become a live target that would be riddled with holes.
Attracting firepower was to ensure the safety of the engineers, but they also needed to ensure their own safety!
The only thing that reassured them was that although these people were well-trained, they were all at the level of primary school students. Although they were armed with powerful rifles, their standards were limited. Even if they locked onto Azure Bird’s approximate range of activity, it was impossible for them to easily find her.
“Understood. Be careful!” Ye Jian, who was hiding behind the tree, said in a low voice, “Don’t worry and pay attention to your surroundings. There are many targets coming ashore from the beach. I’ve dealt with five of them, and you guys have dealt with at least five more. Now, there are still targets who haven’t been dealt with. I suspect that they came ashore by boat. I plan to capture them alive and ask them about the exact landing location.”
“Are you planning to snatch the boat?” Hearing the commotion ahead, White Crane hid behind the tree, while Azalea stood guard in front of him.
The two of them had been maintaining alternating vigilance as they advanced. This way, not only could they ensure the safety of their comrades, but they could also immediately discover the targets and quickly fight.
“Yes, that way, we can all leave the island.” Ye Jian gently brushed away a leaf in front of her eyes. After saying that softly, she shushed her comrade. This was to tell her comrade that she had discovered the situation and it was not convenient for her to talk.
“She’s safe for now. Let’s go. Let’s get rid of the guys in front of us first.” White Crane made a small gesture, and the two of them crouched as they crept toward the commotion.
Carrying out combat on the island was not unfamiliar to the special forces of the Xueyu unit. Although the terrain of the entire island was unfamiliar, the environment was not. Soon, the two of them saw black shadows flashing behind the leaves and heading toward Ye Jian.
“You shoot from that side, and I’ll shoot from this side. We’ll give them the illusion that we’re lying in wait all over the island.” White Crane’s cold gaze locked on the dark figures weaving through the green trees. “That way, we spare Azure Bird from danger and draw out any targets who might still be hiding.”
Once these people thought that there were many ambushes on the island, they would not dare to approach Azure Bird again, and they would not dare to fire at will either. This would make it easier for them to meet up with Azure Bird.
Ye Jian heard their plan. Ye Jian, who was watching the black shadows walk away, reminded them to be careful. Then, she moved carefully. She wanted to go around and find the two hidden targets in front of her.
The sound of gunfire from her left didn’t distract her. Judging by the sound of bullets, they were fired by White Crane and Azalea.
The FA-MAS cartridge was an SS109 NATO standard issue. Since the FA was a light infantry machine, the chamber was noisier when it was fired from the back. Therefore, Ye Jian could tell who fired the rifle just by hearing the sound of the cartridge.
