King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

Chapter 572 - 551: The Unlucky Child in the Fierce Battle



The terrorists' counterattack was fierce, with machine guns, rifles, and RPGs firing wildly, causing the exterior wall of the small building where Joe Ga and his team were located to explode into flying debris.

Just when the terrorists thought they had Joe Ga and his team pinned down, a battered sedan that seemed to be nothing more than a frame drove out from a courtyard.

As the car faced the small building where Joe Ga and his team were positioned, the man inside started to speed up, screaming as he sprinted forward.

"Bang"

Joe Ga, who had not returned fire till then, pulled the trigger, and the bullet from his SVD sniper rifle accurately hit the driver in the chest, causing the vehicle to lose control and crash into a nearby house.

The vehicle didn't explode, and Nis quickly turned his gun barrel to start searching...

"Be alert, it's a remotely detonated car bomb, the person responsible for detonation needs to see the car's location, then use a cell phone to detonate the bomb."

Joe Ga swiftly moved his gun barrel, scanning the rooftops of building after building until he locked onto a person holding a cell phone, attempting to escape down a ladder.

The man had no gun, and Joe Ga couldn't determine whether he was a terrorist or a civilian just watching the excitement.

But Joe Ga wasn't one to hesitate; unable to discern the man's identity, he resolutely pulled the trigger...

"Bang", the bullet struck the upper edge of the ladder, the exploding splinters startling the man, who then lost his grip and fell from the fourth floor, crashing heavily to the ground.

The instant the man hit the ground, two armed individuals rushed out from the courtyard, trying to lift him up and bring him to safety.

At this point, there was no need for hesitation. Since Joe Ga couldn't take the shot due to his angle, he simply yelled over to Dorian, "Elephant, blow them up..."

Dorian was crouched down controlling an automatic grenade launcher. The moment he heard the order, he quickly adjusted the barrel angle and a series of grenades were fired...

"Boom boom boom..."

Aside from the first three hitting the rooftop opposite them, the rest mostly landed inside that courtyard.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

The series of explosions halted the opposition's counterattack for a moment, but they quickly reorganized a new offensive as they were numerous after all.

It was evident that the terrorists were also getting anxious. Operations like P·B involving offering food and promising rescues could cause people within the terrorists' controlled area to waver.

Now, they had to show sufficient strength to stabilize the situation in that area.

The small building occupied by Joe Ga and the BD teams stationed in the buildings on either side all faced a T-shaped intersection.

The five-story building provided a commanding view, but they couldn't directly attack the enemies moving on the lateral road.

In an era without drones, urban siege warfare would certainly favor the side with more people.

But now the situation was different. With the presence of Antar and the support of a technical team from the rear, the battlefield was one-way transparent for Joe Ga and his team.

"Attention, two armed pickup trucks, each with a recoilless rifle mounted on top, and 20 infantry with guns following in support. They're trying to provide cover for the artillery strike."

Hearing Antar's shout, Joe Ga pressed the communicator and spoke loudly, "King Kong, Elephant, get in position. 'Vanguard,' 'Grey Wolf,' can you see them?"

"Team B has a small field of fire, but we can use grenades to lock down a small area."

"Team D can see most of the road surface to the left of the T-intersection and can use machine guns to block it."

Hearing the responses from both teams, Joe Ga ordered loudly, "Wait for them to show themselves..."

As he spoke, Joe Ga felt a push and turned to see 'Kitten,' who had run back halfway through washing her hair.

Knowing what was expected of him, Joe Ga gave up his fighting position and picked up his HK417, running to the other side to crouch behind a barrier reinforced with stone sandbags...

"Ready, get ready..."

Joe Ga called out as the terrorists across started their attack first.

Every building that had a view of the small building where Joe Ga and his team were located had people shooting from it.

At a distance of roughly 400 meters, talking about precision with rifles and machine guns was nonsensical, yet the intense gunfire was still rather frightening.

Even if Joe Ga and his team were impressive, they couldn't fortify every part of the small building. Occasionally, stray bullets would penetrate the boarded-up windows, whistling as they entered the room and then blasting small pits in the walls.

The few people who stayed on the fifth floor clung to their positions, ignoring the terrifying stray bullets as they launched an accurate counterfire.

How effective could a sniper be when one side lacked heavy fire support?

Joe and his team quickly provided an answer...

"Bang, bang bang, bang..."

"Bang"

"Bang"

"Bang"

Joe Ga's precise shooting was unlike that of an ordinary person; he would pull the trigger as soon as he spotted a target, not even pursuing a kill in one shot. Any position he could hit was his target, and even if he didn't kill the enemy, he could take the chance to fire again...

The fully focused Joe Ga shot so quickly it was almost unreasonable...

On the top floor of a small building 460 meters to the front, the two machine-gun positions had their fires silenced before they could fully open up.

Then the windows on both sides of the machine-gun positions became Joe Ga's focus...

One guy blindly spraying with an AK sideways was shot in the arm, and then, as he leaned forward in pain, the second bullet hit his head.

The high-caliber bullet pierced the side of the terrorist's skull, startling the man beside him. He stepped back only to bump into another terrorist, exposing his head.

"Bang"

Joe Ga's rifle sounded again, this time the bullet hit the terrorist's ribcage, shattering his ribs and mutilating his heart and lungs. The poor devil, like cattle and sheep struck by high voltage in a slaughterhouse, instantly stiffened and fell to the ground like a wooden stake.

Joe Ga alone sealed off a floor, while Nis, Kitten, and Antar worked together to eliminate a heavy machine gun that appeared on the opposite rooftop.

Two M2 heavy machine guns, clearly removed from some vehicle, had hardly fired a few shots before the gunners were taken out.

One replacement gunner after another was taken down as they came up. After four or five deaths, the enemy temporarily gave up.

And as another machine gunner, Ayu was much more domineering...

Wielding an M2 machine gun as well, Ayu caused tremendous damage to the enemy ground forces from behind the protection of a concrete shelter and U-shaped steel plates.

More than a dozen terrorists recklessly charged the street directly opposite Joe Ga and his team, trying to buy time for the following technicals with their fierce shooting.

When Ayu let loose a series of large-caliber bullets, those men quickly collapsed.

Actually, Ayu had only hit one guy; the large-caliber bullet struck the man's midsection, severing him at the waist...

The upper half of his body fell to the ground like melting ice cream, and the man wasn't even dead...

The horror of the situation, coupled with the splattering pieces of stone flying like stray bullets, caused the dozen or so brave ones to hold out for merely two seconds before they scurried back to the corner, crawling and stumbling.

Karman was lying next to Ayu, and when Ayu's first wave of attacks drove the enemy back, Karman shouted at a nearby building, "200 meters, watch for RPG, Menon and Kuba, keep an eye on the balcony..."

As Karman shouted, his AKM fired.

Not at all pursuing precision, he sprayed all 30 rounds from his magazine at the second-floor balcony of a civilian house 200 meters away, frightening a guy holding an RPG into shooting the rocket into the sky.

"Bang" "Bang"

Two consecutive gunshots sounded as the sharpshooters Menon and Kuba, who had been waiting for an opportunity, struck the guy with their M110A1 rifles.

The two young men on opposite sides of the rooftop cheered in excitement and quickly scoured the vicinity for targets.

A terrorist, refusing to believe his fate, rushed onto the balcony with an RPG but was shot in the chest by Menon before he could even aim.

As he fell backward, the RPG in the terrorist's hand hit the balcony above him. The explosion caused partial collapse, burying the unfortunate soul under a mass of cement chunks.

Menon, who was crouching on the ground, let out an exuberant cheer and habitually stretched, exposing everything above his shoulders...

"Whiz"

In that lightning-fast moment, a bullet grazed the rim of Menon's helmet, deflecting and carrying away his ear, leaving behind just a bit of flesh attached.

From a distance, it looked as if half of Menon's face had been flipped over...

Karman, frowning, crawled over, grabbed Menon, who wanted to fight back, and slapped the wound, snapping him back to the realization that he was injured.

"There's a sniper, don't show your head..."

As he spoke, Karman pulled Menon down, then swiftly tore off the bothersome piece of the ear and pressed the communicator, saying, "Medic Bird..."

Menon touched the wound on his face and said with a grin, "Sir, I'm fine, it doesn't hurt at all..."

Karman looked at the kid who had come out of the Gold Mine Training Camp and shook his head, "You still lack one lesson. Being fearless isn't enough; you must be alive to claim that fearlessness..."

With that, Karman pulled out his Hunting Knife and prodded Menon's ribs with the handle...

The old man didn't know what spot he hit, but Menon screamed shrilly as if scalded by boiling water, clutching his ribs as if wanting to roll on the ground...

Karman pressed down on the unfortunate kid, saying with a grin, "Remember this feeling; without reverence, you won't last long on the battlefield."

Cooper, also very excited on the other side, turned back to look at Menon's dreadful state, and immediately shrunk into himself, quietly squatting on the ground, shooting through a hole at the bottom of the chest wall.

At that moment, Medic Bird poked his body out of the rooftop exit, took one look at Menon's condition, and even he was shocked...

He dashed out in one swift motion and then dove forward onto the ground, rapidly crawling to Menon's side, quickly checked him over, then knelt on the ground, dragging Menon by the bag hanging on his back into the exit...

Old Karman watched as Menon left with a look of utter despair, and shook his head slightly, then quickly re-entered his battle position...

"Everyone be aware, they've got a sharpshooter..."
