Chapter 770 - 344: Encirclement and Interception (Part 2)

Chapter 770: Chapter 344: Encirclement and Interception (Part 2)

Second is ’block’, which generally means controlling the enemy’s route of advance, forcing them to ultimately fall into a trap according to your plan, without direct confrontation;

’Intercept’ means directly confronting them head-on, setting an ambush along their route;

The least desirable option, which all forces are currently executing, is ’chase’. If not done well, it can easily allow people to escape, and worse yet, you might end up getting bitten back.

Gu Ji’s excellence.

Lies in the ability to detach from the mindset of just completing the mission to obtain the box, take a god’s-eye view, oversee the whole situation, and choose the safest, most efficient, and highest success rate plan: detour and intercept!

This way.

They can avoid counter-attacks from the PM mercenaries in the early stage and get rid of interference from other organizations. They only need to intercept the enemy at a crucial moment to prevent a smooth escape.

Facing a pincer attack from front and back, they can only choose another way to break out.

This would undoubtedly disrupt the PM mercenaries’ tactical rhythm and prolong the retreat time.

And this is precisely the most fatal!

Time is invaluable for the PM. The longer it drags on, the more police forces the Brazilian government will dispatch. Once a layered blockade forms, even if they had exceptional abilities, they’d be shot down.

This kid’s tactical experience and knowledge are very solid.

Zhou Yu exchanged a glance with Ling Yousong, "Okay, let’s do as you said!"

"Alright then, Li Yaoguang, come downstairs to meet us. Yao Zhan, Xv Guangpeng, collaborate with Li Yanan on the rooftop to form Group B for high-position support!"

"Yes!"

To prevent another mistake like the ’Ling Yousong being stolen’ incident at the convention center, Gu Ji assigned two people for sniper support this time.

Having one more gun also effectively suppresses snipers from other forces.

In a no-drone zone, a sniper providing remote vision from a high position is incredibly valuable.

Li Yaoguang darted from the building entrance, ducking the pin-point shots of unknown origin, and quickly ducked beside a car.

Judging from the bullet trajectory, it didn’t seem aimed to kill.

It seems Zhou Yu was right, precise snipers from other forces are harassing them.

That’s reasonable too.

After all, everyone wants to be the first to get the box.

"Gao Bo, Zhou Yu, scouts, position 2, Ling Yousong precision shooter, Li Yaoguang covering the rear, target the riverside building entrance, action!"

"Swish!"

No sooner had the words fallen, Gao Bo and Zhou Yu charged ahead, quickly firing at several gunfire origins on both sides of the street.

Until they turned into the right-side alley.

It was then Gu Ji and Ling Yousong’s turn to cover, and finally Li Yaoguang, after having his shoulder squeezed by Ling Yousong who turned into the alley, also entered the narrow alley.

"Fuck! All automatic weapons, how am I supposed to fight?!"

At the second-floor window of an emergency exit staircase of a building in the block.

Baron crouched by the window, listening to the gunfire outside and staring at the rudimentary Glock pistol in his hand, a bitter feeling welled up in his heart.

To think he belonged to the renowned 7472 unit with a history of a century, yet was not even furnished with proper equipment, how stingy!

But he was merely venting.

On him were the organized supplies of the [Poison Needle Trap] mine and the [ERC Information Interference Device], although lacking a rifle felt somewhat insufficient to him.

"Should I get something from Yasen?"

As Baron took out his phone, ready to contact Yasen.

Suddenly, outside the window, a few figures were approaching his door.

In the next moment, several Asian men in suits holding MP7 submachine guns were fiercely exchanging fire with a group from the opposite side, but due to the enemy’s precision shooter occupying the high ground, one was instantly shot and had to retreat into the hallway.

"Gulp."

Baron swallowed, overcame the physiological tension, and immediately hugged the wall, slowly moving his steps, trying to move upward without being spotted.

Since only a layer of cement floor separated the two sides.

He could clearly hear the voices of exchanges below, they were Japanese.

Because he had been previously tasked by unit 7472 with investigating Liangben and Abe Shigehide and spent a long time in Japan, he could understand a bit of common Japanese.

These people were discussing how to break out.

They didn’t hold back on cursing those attacking them.

Baron heard the word "NIS" among them, knowing that the Korea National Intelligence Service was involved, seemingly they had a conflict.

Just as he quietly moved to midway up between floors.

Suddenly, someone suggested sending one of their operatives to the rooftop to occupy an advantageous position and pin down the Korea National Intelligence Service sniper.

"Fuck!"

Baron’s face changed abruptly, his heart skipped a beat, nearly choking.

In an instant, three options formed in his mind:

Run! Fight! Pretend!

Run; sprint all the way to the rooftop, but it would alarm the Japanese downstairs, and even if he reached the rooftop, quickly unlocking the rooftop door was uncertain, he might end up cornered!

Fight; directly set a [Poison Needle Trap] mine, with a high chance of ambush success, might even gain weapons.

But using his biggest card at this moment, Baron felt it would be a loss.

Pretend; pretend to be a local Brazilian just leaving the house.

This group of special operatives from the Japan Defense Agency Operations Headquarters might be here for the leak of something from the Brazilian Ministry of Defense Research Institute, unlikely to kill innocents in Brazil indiscriminately, right?

Just as Baron was deeply torn.

Suddenly from below came a shout of "Wait," followed by a burst of gunfire from outside again.

Baron focused his gaze, it was a group of professional special operations personnel in camo combat suits, unmistakably the BOPE Skull Team, led by none other than the Yasen he had been searching for!

Without suspense, BOPE and the Korea National Intelligence Service were engaged in a gunfight.

The Japanese special operatives hiding in the corridor didn’t dare to move randomly at all because Yasen had a police dog with him. If discovered, they would be sealed inside the building.

But for Baron, this was a prime opportunity for escape that couldn’t be wasted.

He quickly pulled lock-picking tools from his pocket, skillfully opened a dusty door, and stealthily slipped inside.

"Boss! The target fire spot vanished!"

"Damn, these despicable intelligence thieves dare open fire on our turf, I wonder who gave them the nerve!"

"Command center reports at least five or six national intelligence agents have infiltrated, can’t imagine what’s so crucial to make so many strive to grab it, Bat, you’re into technical intel, do you have any idea what’s inside the box?"

"How could I know, but from the HQ’s intel analysis room, it seems there’s indeed a significant deal involving the Ministry of Defense recently!"

"Enough chatter, advance forward!"

Yasen suddenly barked an order at his men, as they moved quickly, his gun sweeping through several danger zones: "The intelligence units from the US and Russia are faster than us, we can’t let them get the box first!!"

"Yes!"

...

The alleyway was extremely narrow, basically accommodating two people passing by, and in such an environment, without a shield, an ambush means mutual destruction.

Thus, Gao Bo felt immense pressure.

After barely taking dozens of steps, sweat soaked his forehead and back.

Fortunately, he had the Stinger by his side.

Now Gao Bo finally understood why Gu Ji insisted on bringing it to Brazil, at least, at corners, it could always sniff out potential hidden dangers first, like mines or enemy ambushes.

"Careful, there’s a crossfire zone beyond the alley exit, I see some Caucasian men!!"

"Hold!"

Gu Ji raised a fist, the team instantly pressed against the left wall, staying alert front and back, "Gao Bo, go check the alley’s exit conditions!"

"Okay!"

Gao Bo nodded, lowered his rifle’s muzzle, took a low stance holding the weapon, stealthily reached the wall’s edge, and peeking out with his right eye.

In his sight, three burly white men in bright blue shirts were exchanging fire with some mercenaries at the distant street corner.

Due to the enemy having a sniper nest above, those men couldn’t press forward.

As Gao Bo tried observing further, he noticed a Russian operative in camouflage guarding toward the rear, concealed by the greenery.

He quickly pulled back, taking a breath.

"What did you see?"

"Four, look like Russians, wielding Mk18 short-barreled rifles, I couldn’t clearly see the enemy personnel, one was a sniper, another seemed to be wearing a black hood."
