The Dragon City Rises

Old Hei, with his four hundred-odd men, had already arrived near the heavy factory where the No. 2 storage depot was located.

Here, there was also a force of about five or six hundred men, exchanging fire with the city defense forces of Saint Paul, the sounds of gunfire rising and falling.

Old Hei squatted on the ground, observing through binoculars.

In a position about a kilometer away, an enemy unit of about fifty or sixty men was frantically firing outwards with four machine guns set up.

"Come, come, get the special operations team over here," Old Hei put down his binoculars and turned to instruct, "Set up the grenade launchers."

A dozen special operations soldiers stepped forward, quickly fixed the grenade launcher bases, then adjusted the angles, aiming at the enemy's position.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

"Rumble!"

With a barrage of dense artillery fire, the shells instantly blanketed the enemy position, burying a large number of soldiers within.

"Bang! Bang, bang!"

Yao Doudou, with his SVD, was basically maintaining a one-shot-one-kill efficiency, frantically sniping the enemy's firepower support.

With the addition of Old Hei and his men, coupled with the counterattack of friendly forces in the surrounding area, this small group of troops was quickly cleaned up.

…

Old Hei and his men quickly rushed to the enemy's position, beginning to collect the enemy's equipment and ammunition. The surrounding gunfire gradually subsided, and after destroying this position, the advance of the troops accelerated significantly.

"Hey, what's this?" While searching the pockets of a corpse, Old Hei pulled out shoulder insignias and armbands, and was immediately stunned when he saw the rank: "Damn, a senior colonel?"

Old Hei felt something was wrong, so he sent people to search the pockets of others.

After a round of searching, they actually found seven or eight colonel insignias, two senior colonel insignias, and one brigadier general insignia...

They had deliberately removed the insignia that might expose their rank and put them in their pockets.

"Wang Zheng, come take a look!" Old Hei shouted excitedly.

Before long, Wang Zheng and others ran over and took the insignias.

"Brigadier General?" Wang Zheng was also stunned: "This... impossible, right? Just a city defense command, how could they send a brigadier general to block us?!"

"Could it be that a command headquarters was wiped out, and they were infiltrating outwards, accidentally running into us?" Someone suggested.

"Stop guessing, bring those few who were captured earlier over here, and ask them; won't that clear everything up?" Hou Guoyu said simply and crudely.

"Right, bring those guys we caught earlier over here," Old Hei waved and shouted.

After a short while, four prisoners who had been captured earlier were escorted by soldiers, walked over, and knelt in a row in front of Old Hei.

"Bang!"

Old Hei went up and fired a shot, the prisoner on the very edge was instantly shot in the head and fell straight to the ground.

Old Hei looked at the others, his face full of murderous expression: "Speak, who all is inside the No. 2 storage depot?"

Although the prisoners were trembling, they still gritted their teeth and no one spoke.

"Bang!"

The second prisoner's forehead was pierced, and his body fell down. Old Hei walked in front of the third prisoner, about to shoot.

"I'll talk, I'll talk!" The prisoner couldn't hold on any longer, scared so badly that he wet his pants, and hurriedly shouted: "General Gustav is in there!"

Everyone's hearts trembled upon hearing this.

They looked at each other, and Old Hei pressed the gun against the prisoner's forehead, urgently asking: "Isn't it the city defense command?"

"Everything is in chaos, the... the general headquarters, originally wasn't too far from us... just now when you launched the attack, the general headquarters relocated because there are bunkers here," the other party stammered.

"Bunker No. 2? How many exits are there in total?!" Old Hei asked with a trembling voice.

The prisoner's emotions collapsed, and without any hesitation, he divulged the situation outside the bunker.

Old Hei took out a map, had the other party mark four locations on it, then said to Wang Zheng and the others: "Damn it, after fighting for so long, we finally have some luck, we actually stumbled upon Gustav's command headquarters. Quick, gather all the surrounding forces and block this place!"

"Damn it!" Wang Zheng also rubbed his hands excitedly: "I guessed right, there really are big fish inside."

…

Old Hei quickly gathered his forces, began to arrange tasks, and assigned troops to the four exits. He, Hou Guoyu, and Yao Doudou guarded the largest Exit No. 1, Wang Zheng led a team to guard Exit No. 2, while the remaining Exit No. 3 and Exit No. 4 were assigned to two squadron leaders from the Riot Control Bureau.

Each team was assigned two to three hundred people, and then they began to move towards their respective target locations.

On the way, Old Hei led his team towards Exit No. 1 while initiating a communication with Jin Maohui: "Director Jin, we blindly stumbled upon Gustav's location."

"Really?" Jin Maohui was also energized, and hurriedly asked: "Are you sure?"

"Confirmed!" Old Hei nodded: "Their city defense command and general headquarters are together! I just blasted a brigadier general, and a bunch of lieutenant colonels and senior colonels with one shot! They are all guarding this exit!"

"Immediately mark the location for me, I'll lead the team over there now! After joining up with the main force, we'll wipe them out in one fell swoop!" Jin Maohui hurriedly said.

"It's too late!" Old Hei said as he ran: "They're already alarmed, they're definitely preparing to relocate the command headquarters again! Our small team must block them now! I'll have someone send you the location in a bit, you guys come over to support as soon as possible!"

"No problem! We won't do anything else now, we'll fully support you there!" Jin Maohui finished speaking, and the two hung up the call.

Old Hei and his men had already entered the heavy factory's internal compound and arrived in front of Exit No. 1. This was a huge underground elevator passage, a full ten meters wide, and the height was unknown because the passage was closed at this time.

Next to it, in a main building, a large number of soldiers were guarding, and inside there should be the second passage to Exit No. 1.

The group slowly surrounded it, while Yao Doudou took thirty-odd men to find a high ground for sniping. Tang Yao, who had been silent all along, just followed Old Hei closely.

During wartime, general military command headquarters are usually set up in hidden locations with complete fortifications. If they are set up on the ground or in a building, once the war starts, they will be wiped out in minutes once they are found.

…

At the same time, Jin Maohui led a large force of four to five thousand men, and once again sounded the charge, rushing towards the direction of the heavy factory at all costs. The sounds of gunfire were constant along the way, and those soldiers hiding in the alleys and buildings could not stop their overwhelming offensive.

…

Wang Zheng also led his team to the vicinity of Exit No. 2 and observed with binoculars.

About five hundred meters in front, there was a large ditch that stretched as far as the eye could see, extending outside the park. There was no standing water in the ditch, only a huge drainage channel.

Simple fortifications had been built around the drainage channel, and a steady stream of enemy soldiers were emerging from inside.

Wang Zheng glanced at the terrain and immediately waved his hand and shouted: "Quick, in groups of fifty, occupy all the slopes on both sides of the river channel!! Prepare to fight!"

"Whoosh!"

A group of soldiers dispersed forward, and Wang Zheng shouted into the communicator: "Old Hei, I've arrived at Exit No. 2! They've already reacted, and internal soldiers are infiltrating outwards, trying to escape!"

"Damn it!" Old Hei roared: "Be sure to block the exit! Otherwise, if Gustav slips out, we'll be in trouble!"

"Understood!"

…

Inside the heavy factory compound, a large number of enemy soldiers were guarding one side of the building, blocking the attack.

Old Hei and Hou Guoyu led the team, surrounding the area, and repeatedly launched fierce attacks into the stairwell.

"Dang dang dang dang..."

Just then, a series of mechanical gear sounds suddenly came from the side of the elevator passage.

Old Hei suddenly turned his head and saw that the passage platform was constantly tilting and descending, revealing a seven or eight-meter-high passage. Two armored vehicles crushed the ground and rushed out of the underground slope, followed by rows of soldiers, holding automatic rifles, and opening fire in all directions...

…

Jia City.

Listening to the channel communications from Old Hei and the others, Su Tianyu said anxiously, "You guys wait here for news, I'm going to the front line to take a look!"
