Chapter 144: Besieged on All Sides (1)
Almost as Clinder had just seen the signal spots formed by huge ships from the scanning radar, on the road leading to the Tavi regional airport, dozens of live ammunition gunmen were skillfully transporting concrete barricades to the simple road, setting up a z-shaped barricade area that stretched for about two kilometers.
The warlords operating in the Tavi area almost all had conflicts with each other because of their interests, and had temporarily made peace because of their interests. So after the two warlord armed forces in the Tavi city received enough benefits, the two warlords who had once met joined forces without hesitation and worked together to block the road from the Tavi city to the airport.
For the same reason, two warlord armed forces, who are not unfamiliar with blocking the road and intercepting the target, completed the two-kilometer-long z-shaped roadblock area in just half an hour. On the slightly higher mounds on both sides of the roadblock area, several Toyota pickup trucks loaded with 50-caliber machine guns and double-mounted anti-aircraft guns were also parked in a temporary vehicle bunker made of sandbags, pointing the black hole muzzle to the direction of the road.
Hundreds of gasoline barrels were transported by one of the warlord armed forces to the nearest roadblock area. After the fuel mixed with gasoline, diesel and engine oil were ignited one after another, the originally dark road was quickly photographed, leaving nowhere to hide for those who wanted to cross the blocking area through walking.
On several off-road vehicles that were obviously just obtained, armed personnel with live ammunition were cruising and patrolling the wastelands on both sides of the road. The snow-colored columns of light shot out from the searchlights installed on the front of the off-road vehicle were like long sharp swords, tearing the dark night to pieces.
Holding a hand-rolled cigarette mixed with marijuana, the armed personnel who controlled a .50 caliber heavy machine gun were happily swallowing the clouds and fog, staring at the darkness far away from the highway. Next to the armed personnel who controlled the .50 machine gun, several other armed personnel carrying Romanian versions of the AK automatic rifles gathered together and happily shared the ice beer that had just been delivered to the Toyota pickup truck, which was really comfortable.
In such an unobstructed environment, the existing firepower is enough to drive any vehicle trying to break into the airport from the highway into burning scrap iron in one minute. With such a simple task, the funder gave a price twice the cost of hiring on weekdays, which naturally makes the armed personnel who have received the employment happy.
It seemed that he was not satisfied with the illusory feeling brought by marijuana, and the armed personnel who controlled the 50-caliber machine gun sucked a sip of the cigarette that had burned to the limit, and shouted hoarsely to his companion sitting next to the car: "Who has any good things? Give me some! I have money... Look, I have money!"
He looked at his companion who reached out to find a small stack of twenty dollar bills from his pocket, and several armed personnel sitting next to the Toyota pickup truck shouted and replied: "I have money too!"
"Look... the good stuff I just got! But I decided to enjoy it myself. If you want to taste these good things that are strong enough, go back to the city and find a good dealer - don't be fooled by those garbage people again!"
Amid the chaotic shouts, the armed personnel who controlled the .50-caliber machine gun were about to retort, but suddenly frowned: "Shut up! Listen to me... Have you heard it?"
After he got up, several armed personnel sitting next to the Toyota pickup truck immediately grabbed their weapons and jumped up, rushed to the cover and then took a warning posture with guns!
The night wind is not strong, and even the flames ignited in the gasoline barrels almost maintain a vertical upward momentum. In such an environment, there is no need to listen carefully, and the buzz-like sounds coming from a distance naturally appear unusually clear.
He pulled the bolt of the .50-caliber machine gun hard and controlled the armed personnel of the .50-caliber machine gun effortlessly pointed the muzzle in the direction of the beeping. But wherever his eyes were within reach, he could not see any signs of moving any object?
Some people shook their heads in surprise, and the armed personnel who controlled the .50 machine gun reached out and grabbed the walkie-phone that was placed beside them, shouting at the walkie-phone in a hoarse voice: "Searchlight! Give me a searchlight - there is movement in the direction of the highway!"
After shouting several times, several off-road vehicles cruising on the highway finally responded. A series of bright light beams shone towards the highway near Tawei City at almost the same time.
With the light of the searchlight, the armed personnel who controlled the .50 machine gun seemed to see a black shadow flashing at an extremely fast speed near the searchlight column. Almost without thinking through the brain, the armed personnel who controlled the .50 machine gun immediately pulled the trigger towards the position where the black shadow was moving.
Amid the dull and dull gunshots, the green light brought by the tracer bullet mixed in the links pointed out the attack direction like a road sign. In just a few seconds, almost every armed person hiding behind the bunker built by the sandbags pulled the trigger in the attack direction pointed out by the tracer bullet according to the gun.
The sound of gunfire like a bean suddenly turned the quiet night into a lotus pond in early spring. At the relatively concentrated position of the bullet point, the smoke and dust caused by the large-caliber machine gun bullets rose two or three meters high, and then turned into a mass of smoke, covering the large area illuminated by the light column, making it hazy.
In a blink of an eye, the 50-caliber machine gun that opened fire had already emptied a chain of bullets. In the next ten seconds, the gunshots that were originally like beans gradually stopped. With the help of searchlight lights, almost every armed person who was staring at the area where the bullet was being changed while changing magazines or chains saw another black shadow as big as a calf flash in the hazy smoke and dust!
Without orders, another round of nearly crazy strafing unveiled the curtain again. The searchlights that were almost concentrated in one area began to slowly disperse and move, trying their best to pursue the shadow that flashed in the darkness. But no matter which direction the light of the searchlight was chasing, they could never find the black shadow that made everyone feel terrified?
The .50 caliber machine gun that had an ammunition chain emptied once again, and stopped the strafing with some reluctance. The steaming hot air coming out of the barrel made the armed personnel who were controlling the .50 machine gun had to yell at the tip of their voices: "Replace the barrel! Get the spare barrel for me!"
Almost as the roar started, a snow column of light shot from a searchlight locked in a shadow hidden in the darkness. Although the distance was a bit far apart, most of the armed personnel saw the black shadow in vain!
