Gross looked at the thin young man, frowned and was silent for a while, and then said slowly, "How much did Morningstar spend to hire you?"
"As an indirect participant in the war, my asking price is not cheap." Mr. Jiang said with a faint smile.
Gross nodded and said, "I can see it. If you are interested, you can consider joining my team. I find that we also need people like you um, how should I put it? Indirect combatants no matter what , what you said makes sense."
Mr. Jiang smiled and said, "If your price is high enough and my contract with Morningstar expires, I can consider it."
Gross took a glass, poured some wine and handed it to him.
¡°I don¡¯t drink while working.¡± Mr. Jiang shook his head.
Gross nodded, turned around, took the wireless communicator, and issued an order, "Everyone, please withdraw first, and leave those rats alone. All teams will hold their combat positions for me. What?" His face changed slightly, and his expression Somewhat strangely, "You caught one of them?"
Mr. Jiang sat behind him and seemed to have no reaction, but he sighed secretly in his heart. He helped everything he could. Some members of the fifth team were captured, but he was unexpected.
Gross smiled ferociously and said, "Very good, keep him, I'm going to use him as bait."
Lin Rui and others were feeling strange. Although their position had been exposed, Gross's mercenaries did not seem to besiege them again. Instead, they retreated one after another. It seemed that they were returning to the perimeter of the main building of the fortress to continue their defense. .
Qin Fen said in confusion, "Xiao Lin, what's going on?"
"I don't know either. Maybe this is the turning point Michelle mentioned. Maybe the actuary is really helping us." Lin Rui frowned.
"No matter what happened, at least we are safe now." Chen Nanqing breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as we stay up for a few more hours and wait for other teams to arrive, everything will be fine."
Lin Rui nodded and said, "Yes, but don't be too relaxed. Everyone, hurry up and organize your equipment and ammunition. Maybe their temporary retreat is just to paralyze us, so be careful." After the battle just now, they all Extremely tired. Lin Rui and others leaned on a concrete pillar among the ruins, barely ate some food and drank some water. This was the first time they had time to eat all day.
After taking a short rest, Qin Fen squatted in a corner of the abandoned building and watched the situation below vigilantly. But Chen Nanqing was lying on a broken beam, observing the movement in the distance with a telescope.
"Lin Rui, their retreat doesn't look like a fake. They seem to be consciously shrinking their defense line." Chen Nanqing whispered.
Qin Fen also whispered, "Indeed, it seems that they want to hold on to the main building of the fortress. They are setting up weapons, and some people are building temporary bunkers around the building. It seems that they don't care about us."
"What is that?" Lin Rui suddenly raised his eyebrows and pointed to a distance of more than 300 meters.
"It seems to be a person?" Qin Fen said in surprise.
Chen Nanqing¡¯s telescope could see more clearly, and he whispered, ¡°They arrested Peng Lefeng.¡±
"What?" Lin Rui's expression changed as he took a few steps forward, took out his binoculars, and immediately started observing. In front of the main building of the fortress, the mercenaries tied Peng Lefeng to the flagpole. His helmet was missing and his face was bruised and bruised. And a large amount of blood stained half of his body red. Blood was even dripping down the corners of his camouflage uniform. He didn't know if it was his own or someone else's.
"He's in trouble now. Those guys won't let him go." Qin Fen murmured.
Gross¡¯s mercenaries really had no intention of letting Peng Lefeng go. They were beating him in various ways for fun. At the beginning, Peng Lefeng was still struggling and cursing, but after a few minutes, he lowered his head and stopped moving much. Gross's mercenaries were beaten with fists, whipped with thick military belts, and even kicked with heavy military boots.
They probably knew that he was Chinese. One mercenary even imitated Chinese Kung Fu from film theory and punched and kicked him in weird ways, which caused a group of mercenaries to laugh. He punched Peng Lefeng hard in the face, and you could even see blood splashing on the flagpole behind him.
Lin Rui's stomach cramped, and he couldn't stand it anymore. He checked the firearm silently, filled the magazine with bullets, then turned to Qin Fen and said, "Are there any grenades?"
Qin Fen's expression changed drastically, he grabbed his wrist and whispered, "What do you want to do? Don't be stupid!"
"I'm not stupid." Lin Rui shook his head and said, "When we sneak attacked the anti-aircraft gunAt that time, it was Peng Lefeng who shot and saved me at the critical moment. It was this shot that exposed his sniper position. He was captured and I was responsible. "
"Are you crazy? Why did they beat Peng Lefeng in public? Besides, there were so many people gathered there, and they clearly wanted to lure us there. This is called encirclement for reinforcements!" Chen Nanqing said angrily. "You'll be shot before you even get there."
Lin Rui nodded and said, "I know. That's why I have to go. In the real critical moment of life and death, he didn't abandon me, so I can't abandon him. You stay here and wait for help. I will solve this problem alone." thing."
"You are a madman. How can you solve this problem by yourself? There are at least a dozen people there, not counting the sniper who is ambushing in the building with a gun. Why do you save him?" Chen Nanqing shouted in a deep voice, "People must learn to accept reality, especially in our line of work."
"If I want to accept reality, then I should be a security guard now." Lin Rui said calmly, "Facing my life, I chose to take risks. Because I can't bear to see my relatives suffer poverty and misfortune. Likewise. , I can¡¯t watch a person who is in danger to save me end like this. As long as there is a chance, I will save him. If it doesn¡¯t work"
"What else do you want?" Qin Fen said in surprise.
"If it doesn't work, I will shoot him to save him from suffering too much." Lin Rui said calmly, "Now, get out of my way."
Qin Fen shook his head and said, "I can't watch you die. Besides, we have received the mission from Mr. Mi and are here to wait for help."
"Fuck the mission." Lin Rui shook his head and said, "Mercenary is a job, but work is not everything for a person. People always have to do something for themselves, and this is what I want to do for myself. Otherwise, I Even if I live to be old, I will not be comfortable in this life. Because whenever I think about this, I will feel that I am too cowardly to be a human being."
"You are really not a human, you are simply a donkey! You can't pull back, you can't pull, you are a stupid donkey who keeps walking backwards when you fight him!" Qin Fen roared angrily, "Okay, you go ahead. We won't stop you. You, but don¡¯t expect us to help you! We haven¡¯t reached that level yet!¡±
