If the militants on the two flat-bottomed cargo ships wanted to kill the eight people on the fast boat, it would be a simple task.
However, they couldn't do that because the bastards on the ship used the materials in the laboratory to make a delayed incendiary bomb. Now, not only was the laboratory destroyed, but all the experiment records were also gone.
If they didn't capture them, all their previous investments would go to waste.
However, these people were also unlucky. There were three fast boats docked at the dock, but they chose one that was damaged. He even burned the other two ships when he was running away. After they realized that the boat was damaged, they couldn't change it even if they wanted to.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been bitten by the flat-bottomed cargo ship.
A few kilometers ahead was a small waterfall, so the militants on the ship weren't in a hurry. They just kept shooting at the wooden boat to scare the people on the boat.
When they reached the bottom of the waterfall, the kids had no choice but to go ashore. Once they reached the shore, there was no way a few people who lived like princes in the big cities could escape from the hands of a bunch of mountain people who grew up in the mountains since they were young.
"The targets aren't in danger for now. The pursuers are just playing with them. However, there are seven adults and one child on the target ship. "Qu Sen reported the situation in the communication channel and expressed his judgment.
"It's Gary Firza.
Dr. Firza, his wife, and his son. " When Qu Sen reported the situation, the big screen in the command center also showed the surveillance footage sent back by "Qin Nu."
The technical team quickly confirmed the identities of the three extra people on the ship through comparison.
"How long until we enter the attack range of the drones?" Yue Jianjun asked.
Qu Sen looked at the GPS and reported, "About 420 meters."
"An Jingzhe, what do you think?" Yue Jianjun asked again.
An Jingzhe was the commander on the scene. He had two choices in front of him. One was to attack the cargo ship behind them as soon as it entered the attack range of the drones to stop their pursuit.
However, the drones could only fire a single shot, and it would take time to cover a distance of three kilometers. There was no guarantee that the attack would last. If the pursuers reacted during the attack interval, they might decisively attack the ship that the evacuees were on.
They did not need to directly attack the people on the ship. They only needed to destroy the engine at the stern. After the wooden boat lost its power, it could only move backward with the current. As a result, the subsequent rescue mission would be more difficult.
The other option was to wait until both sides were close enough to suppress the pursuers for a short period of time and cover the retreat of our people.
However, this choice was also very risky, because in the process of changing boats, our people would have to abandon the boat and go ashore. After running uphill for a while, they would have to advance more than 200 meters before they could board the boat.
The enemy's pursuers were not only the ships on the river, but also a large group of men and horses chasing along the shore. An Jingzhe was confident that they could complete the cover mission if they had military training or if they were all in the prime of their lives.
However, the problem was that the eight of them were all elderly, women, and children. If the evacuation was delayed for even a moment, they would most likely be bitten by the armed men chasing them along the shore.
There were only twelve people in the rescue team. They were at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers and firepower.
Moreover, this time was different from last time. They could not limit the enemy's attack range to a certain range. If the enemy's pursuers surrounded them from all over the mountains and plains, it would cause great difficulty in the interception process.
"Qu Sen, what is the best distance for the attack drones to continuously attack?" An Jingzhe thought for two seconds and asked through the team channel.
"Put it within one kilometer," Qu Sen understood what An Jingzhe meant and gave the answer without hesitation.
"Reporting to the command center, I am ready to start the interception at a distance of one kilometer. This can ensure the continuity of the attack and buy enough time for the subsequent ship change, "An Jingzhe replied to Yue Jianjun.
"Agreed! How do we solve the problem of the ship? "After Yue Jianjun approved An Jingzhe's battle plan, he immediately asked a new question.
An Jingzhe thought for a moment and immediately replied, "The rescuers will evacuate in two fast boats. We will take the cargo ship to cover the rear!"
"Execute it!"

The wooden ship that was moving slowly against the current was constantly hit by whistling bullets, but the people on the cargo ship behind were obviously just intimidating them. They used their guns to destroy the sides of the ship on both sides. However, the bullets never hit anyone.
"Ah ~ Mommy," the boy's face was hurt by the splashing sawdust, and he cried and buried his head in his mother's arms.
“Where
reinforcements? (Where the hell are your reinforcements?) "
Dr. Firza shouted at the top of his voice.
“Shut
Hide. (Shut up, hide!) "The police field officer in charge of the kidnapping plan quickly stopped Gary
Dr. Firza's shout.
There might be people who understood English on the cargo ships that followed closely on both sides.
Once they heard Dr. Firza's shout, the other party would not just simply shoot the hull with guns.
“God
bless!
Here. (God bless, may the Lord's light dispel the evil here.) "
Dr. Firza also realized how stupid the words he shouted in a moment of excitement just now were. He protected his wife and children with one hand, and the other hand drew a cross on his chest and began to pray.
“The
God，
here! (Your God's light can't shine into the sky here!) "A man with Southeast Asian features on the wooden ship said disdainfully.
Dr. Firza wanted to argue, but considering the current situation, he chose to shut up in the end.

The game on the river continued. Three boats, two big and one small, moved slowly on the river. The armed men on the two flat-bottomed cargo ships fired at the hull of the wooden ship below from time to time.
Seeing that the small waterfall was getting closer and closer, there was even a pleasant laughter on the cargo ship.
A little further behind the three cargo ships, large and small human-powered wooden boats and rafts followed closely. The armed men on the boats were working hard to paddle the oars and planks in their hands.
In the woods on both sides of the river, there were also figures flashing. The bushes and tidal flats in front of them were basically insurmountable for ordinary people, but for people who grew up in the mountains, it was not too much of a problem.
The boss had already said that as long as the eight people on the boat in front of them were captured alive, everyone would receive a very considerable reward. Therefore, no one was willing to fall behind and miss the easy money.
In order to ensure enough endurance in the follow-up operation, after confirming that the rescue target was not in danger for the time being, Qu Sen decisively withdrew the "Qin Crossbow" and replaced the battery.
Then, Shen Jin controlled the "Nightingale" to take over the monitoring task. When the rescue target's boat was about to enter the range of one kilometer, the "Qin Crossbow" rose again.
After more than 40 seconds, the "Qin Crossbow" flew to the target area, and at the same time, a "combustion engine" was ready to launch.
"Launch!"
As Qu Sen's command sounded, Shen Jin pressed the launch button of the ejector.
Accompanied by the ejector and the buzzing sound, the "combustion engine" was rapidly launched into the air, and then slid down along the river in an arc …
"Everyone, hold on, we'll reach the rescue point soon!" The police field agent's body leaned tightly against the stern of the boat. He raised his hands to control the rudder and comforted the people on the boat in a low voice.
Just as he finished speaking, the people on the boat vaguely heard a buzzing sound quickly passing over their heads, and then an explosion sounded behind the boat.
When the people on the ship carefully looked back, they saw that the deck of the cargo ship closest to them had already been set ablaze.
The armed people who were laughing and attacking them with guns before were screaming in the fire and jumping into the river one after another.
Because he was afraid that the burning objects would splash onto the wooden boat that the rescue target was on, Qu Sen controlled the detonation height very low. The "combustion engine" almost exploded when it touched the deck of the cargo ship.
Although the explosion did not directly affect the cockpit, the raging flames seriously affected the sight of the cargo ship's helmsman. In addition, the flames were getting closer and closer to the cockpit.
The helmsman was scared and directly swung the bow of the boat in the direction of the shore.
"Reinforcements!" Seeing that the pursuers were directly hit by an unknown weapon, Gary shouted, "Reinforcements!"
Dr. Firza suddenly sat up and cheered excitedly.
"Get down!"
"Da da da ~"
The reminder of the police field agent and the gunshots of the AKM sounded almost at the same time. When the police field agent flew over, Gary, who was overwhelmed with excitement, was knocked down.
When Dr. Firza fell, there were two bloody holes in his right chest and abdomen.
The pursuers on the other cargo ship were not stupid. When they saw the fire on the ship next to them, they immediately guessed that the escapees had reinforcements.
They just happened to see Gary.
Where was Dr. Firza? In the midst of the cheers, some people instantly forgot their boss's order to capture him alive and subconsciously swept over with a magazine of bullets.
The people on the wooden boat were in a hurry to save Gary's life.
While Dr. Firza was stopping the bleeding, the people on the cargo ship behind continued to shoot.
This time, they were no longer intimidating and looking for fun. Instead, they targeted the motive of the wooden boat. Previously, they were afraid that hitting the motive would cause the fuel to explode, but now, they obviously couldn't care less.
The Southeast Asian man who took over the rudder on the wooden boat had no choice but to turn the rudder back and forth, making the boat move in a large "S" shape on the water surface to avoid the shooting.
Several bullet holes were shot in the outer shell of the motive. Although the boat didn't stop, the working sound obviously became abnormal. The cargo ship chasing behind also took the opportunity of the wooden boat moving in an arc and completely caught up with it.
The two boats moved from one in front and one behind to side by side.
At this moment, another buzzing sound slid through the night sky, and then a black shadow hit the glass of the cargo ship's cockpit. The sound of shattering and explosion sounded at the same time, and the inside and outside of the cargo ship's cockpit were suddenly plunged into a sea of fire.
The wooden boat narrowly avoided the collision of the cargo ship's bow. The police field agent and the Southeast Asian man knocked out a militant who jumped onto the boat with the butt of their guns. After picking up another guy who was holding on to the side of the boat, the wooden boat finally changed to a straight line again.
