Now reading: Chapter 461 - 407: Sinister Captain Harold from Mercenaries, I Will Be King, a Action novel by Yan Qi Guan.

Grey Wolf got shot?!

Sniper!?

Song Heping's scalp went numb from these two ssages from White Bear.

He suddenly realized that he might have been tricked.

Tricked?!

This had never happened before.

But this ti, he vaguely realized that sothing terrible was about to happen.

If...

The entire search team was one huge bait...

The real players and opponents were still behind them.

Could that be possible?!

This thought zipped through Song Heping's mind like a shooting star.

"Damn!"

He couldn't help but want to slap himself.

Encircling Wu Tunqin's troops was clearly a clever move.

But the cleverness was based on the assumption that the enemy had no reinforcents backing them up.

What if there were people lurking behind this ard force?

And this group of over a hundred seed like the main force, but in reality, they were just bait?

Normally, that would be unlikely.

Because this was not so large-scale combat.

It was rely a pursuit and search operation.

Normally, no one would use an entire platoon as bait.

But what he didn't know was that he was actually facing soone far from normal this ti.

Captain Haluo had been stationed in Southeast Asia for six years.

That was not a short period.

He was skilled in tropical jungle warfare and also had extensive combat experience; he was forrly stationed in South Arica as a veteran Seal.

Unfortunately, Song Heping had encountered such an unconventional guy.

From previous raid information, Harold had already concluded that the small squad that raided ngdan Town and abducted Joyce from Batchai's lair tonight was no ordinary squad.

In his assessnt, it was definitely a special unit from China.

Against a Chinese special unit, Harold did not have the assurance of victory.

He knew those people were tough to deal with, and if he wasn't careful, he might end up like his teammate Rock.

From the scene of the raid, Rock didn't even have a chance to fight back.

The enemies had directly used the tactic of collapsing the second floor to take out everyone hiding there in one fell swoop.

From this, it was evident that Rock's command was a mistake.

At the very least, he should have stayed on the third floor instead of the second.

So Harold decided to let the Civilian Military's commander hand over the entire reconnaissance platoon to his command.

His combat mode was very unique.

Using the entire reconnaissance platoon as bait.

Even if it ant sacrificing the whole platoon, what he wanted was to use an entire platoon's hundred lives to draw out that special unit and expose Song Heping's position.

He himself led five Seal Team mbers hidden behind the reconnaissance platoon, waiting for Song Heping and his team to take the bait.

Harold's tactic worked.

The Gray Wolf Team encircling Wu Tunqin's rear got hit by a sniper.

Song Heping realized in an instant.

He knew he had been duped.

Blood rushed to his head.

He, who always prided himself as a tactical prince, had been outmaneuvered by the enemy using an entire platoon as bait in an ambush setup.

At this mont, Grey Wolf had already been shot, and he absolutely couldn't just leave him behind.

Wu Tunqin's reconnaissance platoon had already suffered heavy casualties and posed little threat now.

The most crucial opponents now were the mysterious forces hiding behind them.

"Hunter, can you see the enemy?"

Song Heping dove back behind the tree.

He didn't dare show his head.

If the enemy had a sniper, then he was definitely within their range.

"I can't see them, this guy is hiding too well!"

Hunter seed very anxious.

It was clear that he, too, had encountered a new problem.

Couldn't see the enemy?

A chill ran through Song Heping's heart.

This was not good news.

To have escaped notice by an experienced sniper like Hunter after shooting Grey Wolf and not being detected indicated that the opponent was no ordinary foe.

"White Bear, how are you and Grey Wolf holding up?!"

He urgently asked White Bear.

At that mont, White Bear was at the very front of the squad, the most dangerous position.

He was also the most likely to be targeted by the sniper.

Machine guns, though powerful, were no match for a sniper hiding in the shadows.

"I've taken cover, but things look bad for Grey Wolf!"

"What's his condition?!"

"Still alive, lying near the truck. That guy is deliberately not killing him! He's trying to 'encircle the corpse to lure the rescue'!"

Encircle the corpse to lure the rescue?

This was a common devious tactic employed by snipers.

The 'corpse' here didn't necessarily refer to an actual dead body.

When snipers carry out an operation, they usually don't aim to kill their first target outright.

They often inflict a wound, causing the enemy to lie incapacitated, and then wait for their comrades to co to the rescue.

They'd pick off anyone who showed up, one by one.

If no rescue ca, the comrades would undoubtedly suffer psychologically.

Solidified by years of training together, comrades generally have deep bonds and would desperately attempt a rescue in critical monts.

Walking right into a trap.

Of course, this was an obvious tactic, a transparent sche.

It was a bet on human psychological weakness.

Song Heping was all too familiar with this tactic.

"Hunter! Your observation device has a long range; switch to thermal mode and see where the enemy is exactly!"

At this point, he could only rely on Hunter, the team's only sniper.

"I can't see... this guy's probably wearing a heat-resistant suit. I can only see Civilian Military troops; I can't see where he's hiding!"

"These guys aren't Civilian Military personnel."

Song Heping had already made his judgnt.

"It's probably the comrades of the two Seals we took out in ngdan Town; they are Seals!"

"Seals?!"

"Yes, there are Seal Teams deployed in Southeast Asia, usually working with the CIA."

"How do you know that?!"

Faced with Hunter's question, Song Heping chose not to answer.

Because this was sothing he had known from his ti in the military.

All along, there had been CIA agents operating in Myanmar, and the Seals frequently participated in various operations.

This was an open secret.

"Disaster Star, go and join Hunter now, then head over to the mountain opposite White Bear to find a suitable position. It should allow you to see White Bear and provide him with fire support, but don't push too forward or expose yourselves. If they attempt to encircle White Bear, that's when you strike them down," he said.

After speaking, he turned to Disaster Star and said, "Give your smoke bombs and signal burning sticks!"

Disaster Star hesitated, then quickly handed over the smoke bombs and signal burning sticks from his vest and bag to Song Heping.

"You hurry and assist Hunter and White Bear!"

"Okay!"

Disaster Star packed up his machine gun to move out.

Just as he took a step, he suddenly rembered sothing, "Boss, what about you?"

Song Heping said, "Don't worry about . Rember, when I lure them out later, you all must suppress their sniper, and then find a chance to rescue Grey Wolf!"

Disaster Star stood there, hesitating.

Song Heping shouted at him, "Get moving! Stop dawdling here!"

Despite being notoriously hotheaded, Disaster Star was quite docile in front of Song Heping.

Spurred by his shout, he quickly grabbed his machine gun and sprinted away, disappearing into the darkness.

"Hunter, White Bear, Grey Wolf won't last much longer. I'm going to take a risk. Later, keep an eye on the hill behind the truck. As soon as they attack , hit them hard, especially that sniper! The more successfully you suppress him, the better my chances of surviving."

"What are you planning to do?!"

Hunter, guessing what Song Heping was planning, quickly tried to stop him, "If they are Seals, don't take the risk!"

"Seals, so what?! Don't forget, we've even wiped out an entire squad of the elite Watcher Team. These few Seals are nothing! Don't overrate them. Let's finish them off tonight, and not let a single one leave here alive!"
