"Wei Lun, why didn't you and Su Ran leave?" Han Dong heard Wei Lun and Su Ran's voices in the headset and immediately asked.
"Captain, I must stay." Wei Lun said.
Han Dong was furious. They all disobeyed his orders. When did his words as the captain become useless? But now was not the time to get angry. Han Dong suppressed his anger and said, "Protect Su Ran."
"yes!"
Several bullets landed on the tree trunks beside the two men, and wood chips flew everywhere, scratching their faces and causing pain.
Wei Lun quickly pulled Su Ran to hide behind a rock. A series of bullets swept the rock. Su Ran desperately curled up her body and covered her ears.
Wei Lun fired back a few times with his pistol. The other party turned off the gun and hid. Wei Lun took advantage of this opportunity to set up his sniper rifle and aimed at a guy hiding behind a tree trunk. As soon as the guy appeared, bang! He hit him with one shot.
This side is temporarily safe, but the captain is under a lot of pressure as he has become a focus of fire. The biggest threat still comes from the sniper rifle on the hillside across the river. If it weren't for the captain's good skills, he would have been killed long ago.
"No, I have to kill the enemy sniper. Su Ran, you hide here and don't move."
Wei Lun crouched and moved, looking for a suitable sniping point.
Su Ran didn't dare to move. She hid behind a rock and searched for Han Dong's figure. From a distance, she saw Han Dong dodging left and right in the woods at an incredibly fast speed.
X called Peter: "There is a sniper on the other side. He is at the bottom of the mountain. Kill him."
Wei Lun found a suitable sniping spot, raised his gun, and was about to aim, but he felt a sharp pain in his right hand and couldn't help but let out a scream.
Su Ran looked in the direction of the sound and saw Wei Lun lying on the ground.
Su Ran didn't care about that anymore and ran over quickly. She was shocked by the scene in front of her. Wei Lun's right hand was broken below the elbow, blood gushed out, and the broken hand fell not far from him...
"Wei Lun, Wei Lun, what's going on?" Han Dong heard Wei Lun's screams.
Wei Lun took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and forced out a smile that was uglier than crying, and said with difficulty: "It's okay, just a minor injury."
"First aid kit, where is the first aid kit?" Su Ran frantically looked for the first aid kit on Wei Lun.
"Back... on the side of the backpack."
Su Ran found the first aid kit, took out a roll of bandage from it, and tied it tightly around Wei Lun's broken arm to prevent the blood from flowing too quickly.
"I'll help you to a safer place." Su Ran said as she was going to support him.
Wei Lun turned off the intercom and shook his head, saying, "No, I must kill the enemy sniper, otherwise there will be more casualties. Now the enemy thinks I am dead and will no longer pay attention to this side. This is our chance."
"But you are injured." Su Ran felt very sad and couldn't say something like "you only have one hand left."
Han Dong always said that war is cruel, and that you cowards would only die if you really went to the battlefield. At that time, everyone was still a little unconvinced, including her. Now she has witnessed such a cruel scene with her own eyes. Bullets have no eyes, and no one knows who will fall down next. They are fighting for their lives, and they will continue to fight until they die.
Wei Lun endured the severe pain and sat up, trying to pick up the gun, but he could not do it with only one hand left.
"Damn it." Wei Lun cursed himself in frustration. He was so useless.
"I'll do it." Su Ran didn't know where she got the courage from. If they all sacrificed themselves, she would not be able to survive, so she might as well give it a try.
Su Ran went to get the gun, raised it hard, and felt embarrassed.
Uh... the gun is so heavy, she can't lift it at all.
Wei Lun had never counted on Su Ran, so he said, "Go quickly."
"No, I won't leave. I have nowhere to go. Wei Lun, listen to me. I'm a very accurate shooter."
Wei Lun looked at Su Ran suspiciously.
Su Ran looked sincere and determined: "Everyone knows that I am a sharpshooter. I can do it."
Wei Lun gritted his teeth and said, "Put the gun on my back, come on."
Wei Lun knelt on the ground, bent his body, held the gun with his left hand, and helped Su Ran put the gun on his back.
"There's a protruding rock about 20 meters from the top of the mountain. Do you see it?"
Su Ran quickly spotted her opponent through the sight: "I saw him."
Wei Lun's left hand, which was supporting the ground with the tree trunk, had bulging veins. The severe pain caused beads of sweat the size of beans to continuously seep out of his forehead. The blood from his right hand dripped onto the rotten leaves, a bright red color.
He panted heavily and said with difficulty, "Direction 281, distance 1,200 meters, wind speed 3, correction 3 degrees, you count to one, two, three, I will hold my breath, keep steady."
Su Ran wanted to cry but had no tears: "I don't understand what you are saying."
She had never learned about direction, wind speed, or correction.
"That is to say, if you want to hit the opponent between the eyebrows, then aim above his left ear." Wei Lun changed the way of saying it.
Su Ran understood now: "I'm aiming, Wei Lun, hold on."
Su Ran's hands were shaking, she was very nervous. She knew in her heart that they only had this one chance to shoot. If they missed, they would be counterattacked, and both she and Wei Lun would die.
"Su Ran, it's up to you." At this time, Wei Lun could only trust Su Ran, thinking: Even if I can't kill the other party, it would be fine if I can injure him.
Su Ran also took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and forced herself to calm down. Three seconds later, Su Ran opened her eyes, and her vision was clear.
"I'm ready, one... two..."
When Su Ran started counting, Wei Lun took a deep breath, held his breath, clenched his teeth, and used all his strength to control his trembling body.
"boom!"
The bullet flew through the air.
Peter was aiming at Han Dong's figure and chasing him relentlessly. Today was the most frustrating day for him, the most infuriating day. Every shot was just a little bit off. This man was too experienced and his reactions were too quick.
Just as he was about to shoot again, Peter sensed the danger and subconsciously tried to dodge. A bullet spun through the helmet on his head and penetrated into his head.
Su Ran murmured in a daze: "I think I hit him, he fell down."
Wei Lun couldn't believe it. Did he really hit it
"Making sure."
Su Ran took another look and said, "The gun is still there, but the man is gone."
Wei Lun's tense nerves relaxed, and his whole body went limp and fell to the ground. With trembling hands, he turned on the intercom, and immediately heard the captain's urgent call.
"Wei Lun, reply, Wei Lun, reply..."
Wei Lun smiled, tears in his eyes, and smiled brilliantly: "Captain, Su Ran killed the enemy's sniper."
Wei Lun took off his helmet with difficulty and handed it to Su Ran, his eyes full of apology: "I'm sorry, I can't protect... you..."
As Wei Lun spoke, his hand sank and his helmet rolled to the ground.
"Weilun, Weilun..."
Su Ran's crying voice was heard over the intercom.
Han Dong's heart sank, and a sour feeling rushed into his eyes from the tip of his nose. He knew what had happened. If Wei Lun had only suffered minor injuries, he would not have let Su Ran fire the sniper rifle.
Wei Lun, his good brother...
I recommend my friend Chu Qianmo's new book "Phoenix Pool". It tells the story of a reborn male protagonist and a time-traveling female protagonist, who use tricks on each other and fight with wits and courage. It's very good!
