Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger
Chapter 34 Fierce Battle

Chapter 34: Chapter 34 Fierce Battle

Tessa, who was shooting towards the oncoming lane to cover her colleagues, hesitated for a moment. She glanced at the colleague who was gradually losing consciousness, clenched her teeth, turned around, and followed Mountain Eagle...

The enemy had already been lying in ambush, and after intercepting them on the highway, they attacked from both sides, leaving the police with no chance to fight back.

The gunfight caused a huge chaos. Many people who were stuck on the road started to flee from their vehicles, or lay on the ground hugging their heads and howling.

For Mountain Eagle, the best course of action at that point was to break through to one side of the highway and attack the enemy’s flank, which could inflict effective damage on the gang gunmen and also provide effective cover for the surrounded police.

This wasn’t about Mountain Eagle playing the hero; it was a matter of necessity because if he stayed put, he was dead for sure...

Mountain Eagle took down three gunmen and quickly rushed to their bodies. He scanned the weapons used by the gunmen and discovered they were a mixed bag...

A Thai-made RPS-001, an AK74U, and a Benelli M4 shotgun.

Mountain Eagle decisively picked up a nearly new, black M4 and then removed the ammunition pouch from the gunman’s waist and tied it around his own...

Seeing a somewhat dazed Tessa, Mountain Eagle took the AK74U and two magazines and handed them to her, loudly saying, "Take it, your colleague won’t last much longer. Let’s move up..."

Tessa had made a name for herself in the male-dominated field of the Thai Police Team before she turned thirty, not just because her father had some power but more due to her professional qualities...

However, the professional orientation of police and soldiers are entirely different. Tessa took the AK74U and awkwardly pulled the bolt back...

Seeing a bullet eject from the chamber, Tessa embarrassingly tried to pick it up...

At that moment, Mountain Eagle didn’t have the time to pay attention to the condition of this policewoman. He quickly loaded a few bullets into M4’s magazine, and as the gunmen in front began to notice the situation and started to approach, he raised his gun and launched a fierce assault...

"Cover me..."

Following Mountain Eagle’s shout, Tessa decisively moved forward a few steps, relying on a sedan parked on the roadside, and began firing at the peripheral gunmen on the right side of the highway...

The suppressive effect of the AK74 was very good. After Tessa took down an enemy with a burst of gunfire, the gunmen advancing towards the ambulance began desperately searching for cover in place...

Meanwhile, Mountain Eagle, using the vehicles for cover, got close to the enemy and pulled the trigger...

"Bang"

A deer bullet at close range hit the head of a gunman hiding behind a tree, the tremendous force blowing away half of the man’s head, splattering blood and flesh onto another gunman next to him, causing him to jump up screaming...

"Bang"

The jumping gunman was hit in the chest, a terrifying hole appearing instantly, and then he collapsed softly to the ground.

Mountain Eagle’s assault attracted the attention of most gunmen on the right side of the highway. As they turned their guns towards Mountain Eagle to shoot, the ambulance that had been stationary suddenly reversed, using the vehicle’s body to block the attack from the left side of the highway for a police car behind it, providing some breathing space for the police...

Then two police officers opened the rear doors of the ambulance, regrouped with their colleagues, and launched a counterattack against the gunmen on the right side of the highway...

At this moment, the Blue-clothed man jumped down from the driver’s seat of the ambulance, limping forward for more than ten meters, luckily avoiding the flying bullets, and squeezed into the gap between two vehicles.

"Come at me, I’m right here..."

The Blue-clothed man shouted loudly, drawing the attention of the gunmen on the right side of the highway.

This provided a huge help to Mountain Eagle...

Because those gunmen were after the Blue-clothed man, killing him would bring them the bounty.

Mountain Eagle, pinned behind a car, felt the pressure lighten. He quickly peeked out and then shouted at Tessa, who was frantically changing her magazine behind him, "I’ll count to three, cover me, one, tw—"

Before Mountain Eagle got to three, he darted toward the small trees on the right side of the road like a cheetah with a limp...

He took a slight detour, avoiding Tessa and the police officers’ range of fire, and closed in on the enemies from the rear.

The gang’s gunmen were disorganized in their tactics; they relied solely on their numbers and firepower to bully the less armed opponents.

But once Mountain Eagle chose to flank them, and crossfire was established with Tessa and the police, the gang’s gunmen felt tremendous pressure...

"Bang"

A gunman firing wildly in the direction of the police hit in the waist, screamed and fell to the ground, writhing...

"Bang"

Another gunman, startled by the scream, turned his head just as a bullet struck his right cheek, blasting away the entire right side of his head...

The dense undergrowth and vines in the small woods provided cover for the assaulting gunmen, and now they afforded Mountain Eagle concealment...

Moving constantly, Mountain Eagle was like a phantom in the woods, taking down one or two gang gunmen each time he emerged to shoot.

After three rounds of this, the gunmen who had rushed to the roadside collapsed...

It was unclear who started it, but the gunmen began to run frantically down the road.

The Blue-clothed man, not knowing when, had crawled under a truck by the roadside. As a gunman passed by, he grabbed the ankle and plunged a scalpel into the gunman’s chest as he fell...

Subsequently, the Blue-clothed man who had grabbed an old M16 rifle rolled out from under the truck, and shielded by a corpse, pulled the trigger at the few fleeing gunmen.

"Ratatat..."

When Mountain Eagle emerged from the woods, he saw the Blue-clothed man taking down several fleeing gunmen...

After exchanging glances, Mountain Eagle, feeling a strong empathy with the Blue-clothed man, pretended not to see him. He shifted his gaze and turned around, gesturing vigorously to Tessa to regroup with her fellow police officers...

Taking advantage of the cover provided by Mountain Eagle’s body, the Blue-clothed man opened the door of a car that was still running on the side of the road, and climbed aboard with difficulty.

In just a few minutes, the tide of the battle had turned...

The gang gunmen were already psychologically disadvantaged against the police.

The gunmen on the left side of the road, using it as cover, had a poor line of sight because they needed to cross the road to shoot.

Now, with the right side’s gunmen routed, dealing with the attacks from the left side, those police officers had a much easier time...

Especially when Tessa picked up several rifles and ammunition from the ground and delivered them to her colleagues, the remaining four officers, shielded by the ambulance, finally withstood the assault from the left side of the road.

Mountain Eagle needed Tessa to vouch for his actions, so he did not choose to leave. Instead, he signaled to Tessa that he would establish cover on their flank...

After seeing Tessa acknowledge loudly, Mountain Eagle glanced at the sedan where the Blue-clothed man was hiding, bent down, ran back a few dozen meters, and returned to the overturned police car. Shielded by the engine noise, he opened fire and killed a gunman trying to flank them...

Tessa, organizing a counter-attack, was startled by a corpse missing half of its skull...

Glancing at Mountain Eagle not far off, loading bullets into his M4 beside the police car engine, Tessa bit her lip, grabbed the rifle from the corpse’s hand, and tossed it to her colleague...

"Hold on, support is almost here!"
