Chapter 1471 A Targeted Attack

"Are you alright?"

Wan Yunting pushed Li Yuxiu's head, which was buried in his chest, and asked nervously.

She quickly rolled over from Wan Yunting's embrace and lay on the ground, her voice trembling uncontrollably as she said, "I... I'm fine..."

"You stay put, I'll go save someone..."

Wan Yunting scanned her entire body, and seeing that she was not injured, he dropped a sentence and immediately turned to run towards the soldier lying on the ground not far away, who was holding his bloody, severed leg...

"The first-aid kit, quickly get the first-aid kit..."

Several other soldiers also went over, helping to hold down the soldier whose left lower leg had been broken by a bullet and shouting...

Wan Yunting immediately turned to the overturned off-road vehicle and took out the first-aid kit. He rushed over, opened the kit, and used gauze to tightly bind the soldier's left thigh, tying a knot. Then, at several acupoints in his lower body, he sealed his meridians and blood vessels to stop the bleeding...

"Someone, quickly, Lorraine is injured..."

On the other side, Zheng Xuelan cried out, pulling Zhou Luolin, who was covered in blood, out of the car...

Seeing this, Wan Yunting asked the soldiers to take good care of the soldier with the broken leg. He grabbed the first-aid kit and ran over again. Lin Dongxiang and Zhang Guoyuan also came over. Zhou Luolin, wearing a white protective suit, had been shot in the chest, with a bloody hole appearing directly in her back. Her carotid artery had lost all life signs...

"Boo hoo, Lorraine..."

Seeing this, Zheng Xuelan and the others cried, holding Zhou Luolin...

Wan Yunting's expression was mournful, but he couldn't afford to sigh. He immediately ran to the parked off-road vehicles. Long Xingyu also got out of the car with Huang Hongying, and Wan Yunting quickly asked, "Are you two alright?"

Long Xingyu, wearing a gas mask, supported Huang Hongying and shook his head, trembling as he said, "We're fine..."

"Quickly save them..."

Huang Hongying coughed and pointed to two armored vehicles rolling on the sand dunes in the distance. The peacekeeping soldiers had already gone to rescue the people inside...

"Captain Nie, are you alright? Come on, slowly..."

Two soldiers pulled Nie Xiaoyu out of the car. She took off her gas mask, and her ears, nose, and mouth were all bleeding, clearly indicating she had been injured by the explosion of the missile.

"Let me see..."

Wan Yunting carried the first-aid kit over and immediately checked Nie Xiaoyu's body. He then patted her shoulder and asked her ear, "Officer Nie, can you hear me?"

"Cough..."

Nie Xiaoyu coughed violently, spitting out blood foam, and weakly nodded, saying, "Mmm..."

"You're okay, just concussed. No life-threatening danger."

Wan Yunting also took her pulse and examined her internal organs. Her internal organs were fine, and she would be alright after a few days of rest.

"Captain Yang..."

From another armored vehicle, Yang Heguang was pulled out, having already lost consciousness. A soldier turned and shouted, "Doctor Wan, come quickly and look at Captain Yang! He seems to be..."

Wan Yunting asked the other soldiers to look after Nie Xiaoyu, grabbed the first-aid kit, and ran over again. He immediately pressed Yang Heguang's carotid artery and pulse, then took his pulse again and flipped open Yang Heguang's eyelids. His pupils gradually enlarged, and then he suddenly vomited a large mouthful of blood...

"Captain Yang, Captain Yang, can you hear me?"

Wan Yunting patted his shoulder and shouted, but Yang Heguang had already lost consciousness and showed no reaction.

"Help me take off his clothes quickly, his internal organs might be injured..."

Wan Yunting urgently asked the soldiers around him to help him take off Yang Heguang's protective suit and combat uniform. He pressed his chest and put his ear directly to his heart to listen to his heartbeat. Although weak, his heart was fine. After checking his other internal organs, Wan Yunting finally felt a bulge under his stomach. When he pressed it, Yang Heguang's mouth started bleeding...

"Give me a knife!"

Wan Yunting opened his palm and shouted to a nearby soldier.

"What for?"

The peacekeeping soldier didn't react immediately. Wan Yunting turned and glared at him, "Give it to me quickly..."

"Oh..."

The soldier quickly drew his combat knife and gave it to him. Wan Yunting took the knife and slowly inserted it into the bulging part of Yang Heguang's stomach...

"Doctor Wan, what are you doing?"

The surrounding soldiers were startled, but then with a "poof," a stream of blood shot out. Wan Yunting, as if he had calculated it, dodged the splashing blood and it sprayed onto the soldier next to him...

"Gauze..."

Wan Yunting put down the knife and raised his hand again. Another soldier reacted quickly and handed him the gauze. Wan Yunting then pressed several acupoints on Yang Heguang's chest before using the gauze to cover the wound on his stomach. He said, "His liver is ruptured, and the blood has pooled in his stomach. If it's not released, it will be even more dangerous..."

At this time, the reinforcements from the base arrived. Everyone immediately lifted the injured soldiers onto the vehicles to return. At the same time, a team went towards the small hill at ten o'clock to pursue the mysterious group that had already evacuated...

"Captain Luo..."

"Don't talk, Xiaoyu, let's go back for treatment first."

Luo Guowei comforted Nie Xiaoyu, who was lying on a stretcher and being carried onto the vehicle. Seeing six soldiers sacrifice themselves, plus Zhou Luolin, this sudden attack by the mysterious team had resulted in the deaths of seven people.

Moreover, Yang Heguang was seriously injured, and Nie Xiaoyu, Huang Guoqi, Lin Dongxiang, Zhao Peng, and nine other soldiers were all injured to varying degrees. This made Luo Guowei's face dark, his eyes seeming to spew flames.

"Director Huang..."

Luo Guowei watched Long Xingyu supporting Huang Hongying as she approached. Just as he was about to go over, Wan Yunting quickly shouted, "Captain Luo, don't go near Director Huang and the others. They might be infected with the Red Demon Virus..."

Huang Hongying, wearing a gas mask, coughed intermittently and also said, "Captain Luo, we're fine..."

Upon hearing that Huang Hongying might be infected with the Red Demon Virus, Luo Guowei's heart became even heavier. He nodded and said, "Let's send you back first."

"I can still drive. I'll take Director Huang back." Seeing the book library.

Long Xingyu was also slightly injured. At this moment, he also felt his body becoming more and more uncomfortable, with a heavy headache. However, he didn't want to implicate others and gritted his teeth to drive Huang Hongying back to the base, not wanting other soldiers to help, so as not to implicate everyone.

"Go!"

Seeing the soldiers lift the injured onto the vehicles and send off the bodies of the fallen soldiers, Luo Guowei, to prevent further attacks by the mysterious team, could not linger there. He shouted and ordered the soldiers to drive back to the base, while also ordering another detachment of soldiers to pursue the mysterious group...

However, the mysterious team that attacked Wan Yunting had already evacuated and fled towards the direction of Niger City. The pursuing troops, led by Sergeant Qin Guowu, immediately reported to Luo Guowei, "Captain Luo, they have fled into Niger City!"

"Damn it."

Luo Guowei, who was in the same car as Wan Yunting and the others, was so angry that his face contorted with rage when he heard that the attacking group had fled back to Niger City. He cursed, making Wan Yunting, Li Yuxiu, and Lin Dongxiang exchange glances.

"You all go back first."

After a moment of thought, Luo Guowei still told Qin Guowu and the others to lead their team back to the base first, and then they would plan after reporting the incident to their superiors.

"Why can't we go in and arrest them?" Zhang Guoyuan asked doubtfully.

Wan Yunting, Li Yuxiu, and the others all looked at Luo Guowei. He shook his head gravely and said, "Niger City is currently in chaos with rebels and terrorists causing trouble. The United Nations has not issued any orders yet, so our peacekeeping forces cannot enter the city for the time being."

Wan Yunting frowned and asked, "Are the people who attacked us local terrorists?"

Luo Guowei shook his head and said, "Based on the weapons they used, they don't seem like the local terrorists. They are more like armed forces supported by countries with ulterior motives!"

"Are they rebels?" Zhang Guoyuan asked.

Luo Guowei shook his head and said, "They probably aren't. Local rebels wouldn't attack our Chinese peacekeeping forces like this, because they need the recognition of countries like ours, so they wouldn't attack us easily."

"Then what force is it?" Zhang Guoyuan asked very confusedly.

Luo Guowei shook his head and said, "It's unclear for now. I'll report it to my superiors when I get back, and then send people to investigate to find out."

Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu nodded, understanding that the local factions were fighting each other, and the situation was very chaotic. It was just that Luo Guowei was angry that those people had brazenly and arrogantly launched a surprise attack on their Chinese peacekeeping forces, which was simply a provocation!

Upon returning to the base, Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu immediately joined the rescue of the injured Yang Heguang and Nie Xiaoyu, as well as the soldiers...

Huang Hongying and Long Xingyu were also temporarily quarantined in the isolation building. After blood tests, it was confirmed that they had been infected with the Red Demon Virus! Seeing the book library again.

This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the research team members such as Lin Dongxiang, Zheng Xuelan, and Peng Yuxiang. Huang Hongying was the backbone of the team. Now that she was infected with the Red Demon Virus, it directly caused all the previous research by the research group to stop.

Now, Huang Guoqi and Zhao Peng were also seriously injured. After treatment, their lives were not in danger, but they would have to lie in bed and recuperate for a period of time before they could get up.

"Alas, we can only apply for reinforcements from the domestic military hospital and send another group of people to research." Lin Dongxiang sighed helplessly.

After an afternoon of treatment, Yang Heguang was out of danger after surgery, but he was still in a coma...

Nie Xiaoyu was not in serious trouble. After Wan Yunting treated her with acupuncture, her internal injuries caused by the concussion were stabilized, but she would need to drink traditional Chinese medicine for a slow recovery.

When Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu heard that Huang Hongying and Long Xingyu were infected with the Red Demon Virus, everyone in the entire team was plunged into a state of dejection and negativity.

"Everyone, don't be discouraged. Pull yourselves together."

Seeing everyone gathered in the mess hall with dinner laid out on the tables, Wan Yunting, Li Yuxiu, Lin Dongxiang, and Zheng Xuelan found it difficult to eat...

Luo Guowei and Qin Guowu came in and announced loudly, "The United Nations has approved it. Tomorrow, our peacekeeping forces from more than a dozen countries will enter Niger City to assist the local government army in eliminating those terrorists and rebels!"

Upon hearing this news, Peng Yuxiang and Zhang Guoyuan were revitalized and shouted, "We must get revenge for everyone."

"Yes, revenge..."

The peacekeeping soldiers present shouted in unison. The surprise attack in the afternoon had resulted in the deaths of seven comrades and more than a dozen injured, which ignited a fire in the hearts of these soldiers.

Wan Yunting asked, "Captain Luo, have you identified the attackers?"

Luo Guowei shook his head and said, "It's still under investigation, but according to the analysis of superiors and the United Nations, it is likely to be members of individual terrorist organizations, because besides us, the medical teams of several countries such as Pakistan and Egypt have also suffered terrorist attacks!"

"Therefore, we believe this might be a purposeful and targeted terrorist attack."

Wan Yunting raised his eyebrows and suddenly thought of something, saying, "Captain Luo, I need to report something to you. The Empty Demon Virus infection is not a natural public health event, but a man-made infectious virus!"

"Oh?"

Luo Guowei and the other sergeants, as well as Lin Dongxiang and Zheng Xuelan, all turned to look at Wan Yunting. He said with a solemn expression, "Today, in the slum's virus-infected area, we met Gu Yingbo, the founder of Luoshen Biotechnology Company!"

"He told me that their company once developed a biological gene, but it was stolen by someone, and he suspects it was modified and made into the Red Demon Virus!"

As soon as he said this, Lin Dongxiang, Zheng Xuelan, and everyone else was shocked. They had indeed met Gu Yingbo, the founder of Luoshen Biotechnology Company, today, but they were unaware of this matter.

"Are you sure?"

Luo Guowei looked at Wan Yunting, because Huang Hongying and the others had suspected earlier that the Red Demon Virus was not caused by environmental issues but was a naturally occurring public health event.

Wan Yunting nodded and said, "Based on their research on the Red Demon Virus, it can be basically confirmed that it is man-made, indicating that there is an organization behind the scenes controlling the entire situation. Perhaps the attacks on our medical teams from several countries this time are likely to be from the mysterious terrorist organization behind the release of the Empty Demon Virus!"

Luo Guowei's expression became excited. He pointed at Wan Yunting and said, "Your analysis is correct. I will immediately report this matter to the commander so that they can analyze it with the United Nations. You all eat quickly, and pull yourselves together. We need all of you!"

"Yes, Captain Luo..."

Everyone responded and pulled themselves together again.

"Eat."

Wan Yunting looked at Li Yuxiu sitting beside him and also beckoned her to start eating...
