King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer Chapter 465 448 Ambush Meets Counter-Ambush

Joe Ga rotated the muzzle and carefully searched through the sights but found nothing unusual.

Then, just when he thought his eyes were playing tricks on him, he saw a faint green reflection again.

At that mont, Joe Ga realized sothing...

His tactical sight was very advanced; the reflection he saw was likely from an IR identification patch on an enemy hidden in the dark depths of the jungle.

However, because of the angle or other reasons, he couldn't see it when stronger light fell on the enemy.

But this wasn't a major problem. Joe Ga had Dorian replace him in watching the enemy in the tree, then curled up slightly and mounted an infrared scope on his rifle. He then lay on the ground and slowly moved a few ters to find a better position...

The stifling hot climate of the Congo Jungle made the landscape inside the infrared scope appear like a foggy red haze. However, the temperature of the human body was always significantly different from that of the surrounding environnt, and Joe Ga quickly located three new targets.

He pressed the communicator and whispered, "Dragon Gecko, I see three guys.

Using that sniper as a reference point, with his muzzle at 12 o'clock, there's one about 30 ters to the 9 o'clock direction, one about 15 ters to the 7 o'clock direction, and one about 20 ters to the 6 o'clock direction...

Shit, we almost stepped right into their ambush circle."

Upon hearing this, Karman replied with a hoarse voice, "Don't move, there are six of them, and they've planted mines nearby. I've defused two and am looking for a safe passage.

Don't rush, Devil Bird and her team are closing in. Wait until they're in position, and when I say 'go', you open fire!"

Joe Ga wasn't the patient type, but he couldn't afford to be impulsive in the jungle. So, he simply lay on the ground and started fiddling with his phone, contacting Tony and the others to send him an aerial image of their location.

Joe Ga enlarged the real-ti image on his phone and quickly confird his position, then marked the approximate location of the enemy using himself as a reference, and sent it to everyone.

The unmanned airship was indeed a war artifact of Africa, but its infrared detection system didn't work well in the Congo Jungle—it was just a muddled red everywhere, unable to effectively distinguish the location of the enemy.

A low-altitude drone might have been better, but such a device could easily alarm the birds in the treetops, potentially exposing their own position even faster.

After marking the enemy's location, Joe Ga removed the infrared scope and once again observed the area with the white light aiming scope.

He found that besides the sniper crouched in a tree, there was only one target he could attack directly, and he needed to ensure that the bullet would pass through the gaps between the leaves and branches to hit the target, or else the bullet could easily be deflected.

This kind of jungle gunfight was indeed difficult; he was beginning to understand why the jungle specters insisted on using AKs with 100-round drum magazines.

Just spotting the enemy wasn't enough; there needed to be sufficient firepower to penetrate the jungle's obstructing foliage and hit the target.

The forest was simply too thick!

Joe Ga and his team quietly waited for nearly an hour and a half. Just as Joe Ga was growing impatient and considering asking for an update, Nis's figure appeared on the channel...

"Devil Bird in position..."

"Owl in position..."

"Kitten in position..."

Joe Ga instinctively aid at the machine gunner hiding under a big tree veiled with branches and leaves, then pressed the communicator and said, "Team C, report your positions!"

Poison Scorpion's voice soon ca through the communicator, "Boss, those rcenaries are nearing the spot you marked. They kept moving on the elephant trail after avoiding the herd, so they're moving fast."

Upon hearing Poison Scorpion's report, Joe Ga loosened his neck and said, "Dragon Gecko, how's it going your end?"

Instead of a voice, Joe Ga received two light tapping sounds in response.

Joe Ga knew this ant that Karman too had entered the attack zone.

At that mont, Joe Ga's mind was exceptionally clear. He pressed the communicator and whispered, "Devil Bird, can you see the downstream position of the creek clearly?"

"Yes!"

"non, Kuba, follow Devil Bird's command and move downstream to prepare a surprise for those guys; we can't let them link up.

Devil Bird will block the target's advance route, Team C will strike from the flank, and we'll deal with these guys coming to et them."

Fifteen minutes later, 'Lucky Thirteen's Spades A, with six surviving subordinates, searched along the elephant trail and finally found the markers left by 'Trouble Maker'.

Spades A signaled everyone to stop with a hand gesture. He looked back at the empty elephant trail, then parted the bushes beside it.

After walking over 30 ters into the opening, he saw a creek making a turn and then running parallel to the direction of the elephant trail.

Having confird this was the eting point arranged by 'Trouble Maker', Spades A followed a marker's guidance and found a well-concealed Broad Sword mine underneath a tree.

This discovery brought him a sigh of relief, and he said to his subordinates, "Follow , step in my footprints as we go; 'Trouble Maker's people are ahead."

Just as Spades A led his team, stepping through the creek upstream and into a patch of sunlight, a bullet entered his shoulder from above and lodged in his body.

Spades A knelt down the instant the gunshot sounded, he strained to shout 'Sniper!' before he clutched his neck and slowly fell into the creek.

His subordinates were all battle-hardened experts; the mont their leader fell, they imdiately crouched and scurried into the jungle, trying to find cover.

Their good habits saved their lives, but non and Kuba, the two Xiao Heis, lacked a bit of experience. They were a beat slow, and by the ti they erged from the other side of the creek's jungle and started shooting, the rcenaries had almost reached the edge of the jungle.

'Pop pop' 'pop pop'

The two Xiao Heis only managed to fire two shots each, hitting a target each, then they lost sight of their foes.

Then, as they attempted to pursue and get closer to shoot, a large caliber bullet hit a tree on the other side.

The 12.7mm bullet tore a splintering wound into the side of the tree, and half an arm flew up with the wood chips from behind the tree.

non, who was always ready to shoot; as soon as the unlucky fellow bent over in pain, non pulled the trigger. The bullet traveled the 40-ter distance and hit the target precisely in the temple, skimming the edge of the helt.

The bending unfortunate jerked as if struck by a high voltage shock, his body stiffened and fell forward.

'Lucky Thirteen's' machine gunner, not to be outdone, leaned against the tree and stuck out his machine gun, pulling the trigger, pinning the two black fellows to the ground, forcing them to flee while crawling and rolling...

"Retreat, retreat, retreat..."

As the machine gunner covered his teammates' retreat, an Armor-Piercing Bullet hit the tree he was hiding behind, penetrated the trunk, and struck his cheek.

Perhaps due to the angle of entry, as the bullet tore through the machine gunner's cheek muscles, it shattered his left jawbone, causing his left side of the chin to collapse, revealing a terrible red gash.

The machine gunner didn't feel much pain; he subconsciously touched his chin, then saw his lower lip and teeth swinging.

It was then that fear and rage overwheld the machine gunner's nerves; he let out a pained whimper, raised his machine gun, and charged out, blindly spraying bullets in the sniper's general direction.

"Da da da da da..."

Unfortunately, aimless shooting in the jungle was ineffective; the deadly strike he envisioned never ca to pass, but the pain still found him.

Holding his jaw, which refused to close, and turning to see his teammates escaping in the distance, the machine gunner reached out to grasp at sothing, but finally gave up, drew his sidearm, and decisively shot himself in the head.

The mont the battle downstream began, Dorian and Joe Ga opened fire at the sa ti.

Dorian aid at the sniper in the tree; with an unobstructed 70-ter distance, he hit his target with one shot.

Joe Ga hit the machine gunner in the face with a double shot, then stood up and shouted, "King Kong, cover us; Elephant, let's go..."

The mont Joe Ga called out, Ayu rushed to the side of the creek, 15 ters to their side, both hands on the machine gun, and began to fire at the enemy positions Joe Ga had previously marked.

Joe Ga and Dorian also spread out, crossing the stream to form a crossfire with Ayu.

The mont Joe Ga stepped out of the stream and onto the bank, an enemy appeared in his holographic sight, hidden between two large trees at an angle, trying to move from his position under Ayu's 'hamring' fire.

A re twenty-sothing ters away, Joe Ga pulled the trigger the mont he spotted him; a three-shot burst hit the enemy's ribs, shaking his body for a few monts before he slumped to the ground.

One was left, but neither Joe Ga nor Dorian could see his exact location.

The guy was well-hidden; even several rounds of machine gun fire from Ayu nearby couldn't blast him out.

Joe Ga rembered the man's position, nine o'clock from the sniper, a thirty-ter distance.

Stopping by a large tree, Joe Ga signaled to Dorian, who had also co to a halt. Dorian put down his G36C and took out the MGL grenade launcher from behind. Under the cover of Ayu's machine gun fire, Dorian fired 6 grenades in quick succession at the last man's approximate location.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

After a series of grenade explosions, Joe Ga, while observing, saw that the guy inside seed to still be alive, so he raised his gun and pressed on, repeatedly pulling the trigger, finally killing the lucky fellow.

Upon closer inspection, they discovered that the man had been hiding in a cave beneath a large tree all along, with fragnts from the grenade explosions tearing up his back, but his bulletproof vest and helt had still spared his life.

In the end, with no other option, he crawled out of the cave, only to be killed by several shots from Joe Ga.

After confirming their kills, Joe Ga picked up an M16A4 assault rifle from the ground and was surprised to find it equipped with a thermal fusion holographic sight.

It was just that during the day in the Congo Jungle, thermal effects weren't good, and this guy was in the deepest position; otherwise, Joe Ga and his team might have been detected.

Joe Ga dragged the corpse out of the hole and pressed the communicator saying, "Dragon Gecko, how is it on your side?"

As soon as Joe Ga had finished speaking, he heard Dragon Gecko say, "Head north for 50 ters, then turn east. There's sothing there for you to check out.

I'll go to et 'Leech' and 'Spider' and deal with a few that got away downstream..."
