The cold wind and rain wrapped the smoke particles in the atmosphere. The scars of war fell from the sky and washed the surroundings, but they could not wash away the tension in the dead silence inside and outside the small courtyard. No one spoke in the rain, and the silence lasted for a long time. Suddenly, someone in the courtyard shouted, "Listen up, the people outside. I'm about to come out and give you a second * * *!"
Who else but Xiong Linquan could scold with such vulgar and heroic spirit in the obviously shaky Empire language, especially with the extremely accurate pronunciation of the word * *. However, Xu Le did not have the urge to laugh. Instead, his expression turned solemn and his brows furrowed deeply.
As the former commander of Group 7, he knew the fighting style of his team members too well. He was sure that they would never choose to fight head-on in the heart of this dangerous war zone. Behind this vulgar scolding, the team must be quietly withdrawing from the small courtyard.
This was the most conservative and correct choice, but Paul was still in their hands. Xu Le could watch them slip away and watch the rain get heavier and heavier. He was not sure he could find them again.
He leaned against the wet red brick wall and was silent for two seconds before shouting into the rain, "It's me."
…
…
The walls in the room on the second floor of the small courtyard were all removed, and it became an open space. Behind the glass window facing the rear of the small courtyard, thick beech planks were nailed, enough to withstand a round of bullets. However, the people in the room did not know how many enemies there were outside the courtyard and how strong the enemy's firepower was.
Under the muzzle of a Federation soldier, two Empire prisoners were struggling to lift a stretcher, preparing to be the first to evacuate. Six lightly wounded people were organizing their equipment. The four people led by Xiong Linquan were holding heavy firearms and vigilantly staring at a certain part of the red courtyard wall, the place where the hand had just grabbed.
At this moment, they heard the person outside the courtyard shout two words. Those two words clearly penetrated the sound of the wind and rain and entered their ears.
No one would announce themselves like this. Is it me? Who am I? Who the f * ck are you? What is your name? Where did you come from? Where are you going? These were not philosophical questions, but practical questions.
However, at least six people understood these two words. To be precise, they recognized that this voice came from the vocal cords of some guy who had been ravaged by 37 brand cigarettes. They were once members of Group 7 of that hero, so they recognized that the other party was that former hero.
The room was silent for a few seconds.
"Yes, Boss!"
One of the team members shouted out in shock.
Then, he subconsciously put down his gun and cheerfully stood on his tiptoes. Through the wooden planks, he shouted at the courtyard wall in the rain, "Boss, it's you? I'll have someone turn off the thunder immediately. "
After saying this, the other team member very naturally prepared to turn off the electric switch of the explosives. The first team member who spoke first slung the gun over his shoulder and excitedly rushed to the stairs.
When this team member walked past Xiong Linquan, Xiong Linquan slapped the back of his head and roared, "Are you an idiot?!"
This roar and this slap woke up those excited members who were preparing to rendezvous with Xu Le. Only then did they remember that their boss … was an Empire citizen.
After being separated for three years, the reunion in the rainy courtyard had been too sudden, so the members had completely forgotten about this matter. They had been blinded by excitement and joy, and now that they had woken up, their expressions became extremely complicated. They looked at each other's faces, not knowing what to do next.
"F * ck, how could I forget that he's an Empire citizen?"
"F * ck me too, you forgot that Boss is also the Empire's crown prince."
"F * ck me too, I was just thinking about Boss coming back. How could I remember these stupid things?"
"F * ck me too, I was thinking that with Boss here, we could escape no matter what. I was so surprised that I fainted."
Xiong Linquan coldly looked at the team members, his cold gaze forcing them to shut up. Only then did he fiercely wipe his palms on the side of his pants, silently cursing the word 'f * ck', hiding the embarrassment on his face.
In fact, when he heard the word 'f * ck' coming from outside the courtyard wall, his first reaction was to rush out and see if that guy had lost an arm or a leg, and if that pair of eyes were still so small.
Was he alive?
…
…
Apart from the two Empire prisoners, the rest of the people in the room guessed the identity of the person outside the courtyard wall from their reactions. The NTR team soldiers looked at each other in dismay, shocked that they would actually encounter such a legendary figure. On the stretcher, Dongfang Yu looked at Xiong Linquan and mocked, "Black Blind, what the hell are you standing there for? If you want to surrender to the Empire's royal family, this is the best opportunity. "
Xiong Linquan looked down at the heavy gun in his hand, his tanned face flushed red. He cursed a few words in a low voice, walked to the window, and smashed open the hard beech planks with his fist, aiming at the red brick wall.
Xu Le's voice came from the red brick wall again, "I'm here to save a person, his name is Paul. He should be one of the two Empire soldiers you captured."
Xiong Linquan frowned, looked back at the two Empire prisoners in the room, and asked in a deep voice, "Which one of you is called Paul?"
The bright-eyed Empire prisoner, who had been particularly bold along the way, raised his hand. He was Aunt Susan's only son, Paul.
After being captured for nearly two months, Paul had long been prepared to die at any time. The reason why he had been following this Federation team and not choosing more risky actions was that he needed an opportunity to die together with them. However, the Federal forces were too strong, and he had never found such an opportunity.
Paul was somewhat baffled by the change in the situation at this time. He remembered that day in the cellar, these Federation soldiers had said that their leader was an Empire person. Then … could it be that the person hiding outside the red brick wall was that Empire person? Why did that voice sound familiar? His eyes lit up, but he didn't dare to believe his own judgment.
Xiong Linquan stared at the red brick wall in the rain through the window, his heart full of anger.
The source of his anger might be because Xu Le suddenly became an Empire person, which made him unable to accept emotionally. Perhaps it was because this person had made Group 7, or even the entire seventeen years, suffer too many strange gazes and suspicions in the past three years. Perhaps it was because he felt powerless in the face of fate's betrayal.
But the more likely reason should be that the leader, who he hadn't seen for three years, suddenly appeared on the battlefield. He actually didn't come to find these old men of Group 7, but to save that Empire person named Paul!
Of course, he definitely wouldn't admit this. Just as he once said to the battalion commander of the Iron Seventh Division's Defense Battalion, he firmly believed that he would be the first to shoot after seeing Xu Le on the battlefield.
So Xiong Linquan furiously pulled the trigger at the red brick wall!
The red brick wall shattered into pieces, exploding into dark powder that splashed everywhere in the rain!
Amidst the concentrated gunfire, he shouted wildly, "F * ck your great-grandmother!"
…
…
The moment the gunshot rang out, Xu Le did a standard roll in the rain. He shrunk his body in an extremely sorry state, lying in the dirty mud. He watched as the red brick area to the left of where he was before instantly turned into ruins under Xiong Linquan's gun.
After escaping from the Federation for three whole years, he missed his homeland for three whole years, especially the old friends who lived there. He had imagined countless times what it would be like if he returned to the Federation in the future and reunited with those fellows. He even imagined that this kind of reunion would happen on the battlefield, just like today.
However, in all of his countless imaginings, Xu Le never thought that they, especially Big Bear, would actually really shoot at him.
The cold raindrops hit his face and flowed along his black hair, but it didn't make his heart cold. Instead, some kind of wildfire began to burn there, so hot that he bounced up from the wetland like a bolt of lightning, leaving the red brick wall and walking into the rain!
The rain was open and there was no shelter. As long as a bullet was fired from the courtyard, his life would easily end. However, the wildfire burning in his chest and abdomen made him not think about this at all.
He stood in the wind and rain, fiercely lifted his rain hat, and with one hand holding the heavy homemade gun, he pointed at the small building in the courtyard and cursed furiously,
"F * ck your great-grandmother! You open fire! You open fire! You might as well f * cking kill me! "
…
…
There was no gunshot.
Xiong Linquan, who was next to the window, stared at the guy who was in a rage in the rain as if he was looking at a ghost. His index finger was firmly on the trigger, and he didn't dare to move at all.
He was shocked to think that after not seeing each other for three years, the boss was still so f * cking gutsy when he went crazy.
Xu Le's figure appeared on the monitoring screen in the room. Paul looked at the furious face washed by the rain in shock. He didn't know where the courage came from, but he shouted loudly outside the window, "Brother! Go quickly! Don't worry about me! "
Xiong Linquan looked back in shock and glanced at the inconspicuous captive of the empire. Then he turned back to the window and shouted at Xu Le who was still holding the gun and cursing, "So I caught the prince of the empire. Do you think it's possible to let him go?"
Paul was stunned. When did he become the prince of the empire?
…
…
Xiong Linquan shot at him!
Xu Le kept repeating this sentence in his mind at this time. His anger couldn't be eliminated. Instead, it became more and more explosive. He fiercely wiped the cold rain on his face and directly rushed to the small courtyard, cursing upstairs,
"If you have f * cking guts, try to shoot me a few more times!"
He didn't choose any surprise attack method, nor did he raise his gun to try to suppress them. Just like this, with the wind and rain all over his body, he pushed open the front door of the small courtyard with a heavy gun and walked in openly.
It was as if he was still the leader of Group 7 in the past.
From the front door of the small courtyard to the building, who knew how many bombs and traps were set up. Xu Le didn't even look at them and just shouted, "Turn them all off!"
The members of Group 7 in the room woke up and turned off all the devices as fast as they could. They seemed particularly flustered and panicked. Xiong Linquan, who was next to the window, held the gun and aimed downstairs again and again. In the end, he cursed and put down the gun dejectedly.
The reunion of Group 7 and Xu Le at that time was so absurd.
It was so f * cking comedic.
