Chapter 1496 Retreat

Rumbling...

Bang bang bang...

In the direction of the northwest district of the base, the building complex continuously echoed with explosions and the sounds of various firearms...

A figure was leaping through the buildings, it was Wan Yunting, fleeing towards the northwest. At this moment, he was like a character in a wuxia movie, performing feats of wall-walking, moving with extreme speed, and quickly leaving the pursuing forces behind him.

Although Morton's elite mercenaries were like war machines, possessing abilities beyond ordinary people, they were ultimately still mortals within the scope of human comprehension!

And for someone like Wan Yunting, who possessed skills beyond ordinary understanding, he was a different concept from these war machines and mercenaries!

What's more, with Wan Yunting's sole intention to escape, it was truly not something they could stop.

All the mercenaries and armed elements at the base knew that their boss, Morton, was dead, and everyone was pursuing Wan Yunting.

At the same time, outside the base, Qin Guowu and Lu Xin, who had previously launched a feigned attack on the base, had lost five of their twenty-four-person team, and six were injured. Fortunately, the Chinese support troops had arrived...

Qin Guowu and Lu Xin had rendezvoused with the main force, located about a kilometer outside Morton's base, on a hill in a Gobi Desert area...

"Captain Qin, there's a situation ahead!"

The sniper was holding his sniper rifle at the top of the small hill, aiming towards the base, and saw three vehicles approaching.

"It's Captain Nie and them returning, hurry and provide support..."

Lu Xin, holding binoculars, saw that the cars were theirs and knew that Nie Xiaoyu was bringing Wan Yunting and Gu Yingbo back.

Qin Guowu and Lu Xin went out to meet the three cars as Nie Xiaoyu's convoy stopped. The team members also helped Gu Yingbo out of the car, and everyone was happy to see him, finally having rescued him.

"Where is Doctor Wan? Why didn't he return?"

Qin Guowu and Lu Xin noticed Wan Yunting was not in the car and quickly asked.

Nie Xiaoyu's expression was serious as he said, "He's going to kill Morton!"

"What?"

Lu Xin and the others were shocked and exchanged glances.

Qin Guowu felt that Wan Yunting was too crazy and couldn't believe it: "Him alone? That's Morton's base, hundreds of mercenaries and armed elements. Does he not want to return?"

"Crazy, truly crazy."

Lu Xin shook his head, unsure whether to call Wan Yunting's decision reckless or arrogant to think he could kill Morton by himself!

"Stop the nonsense and organize your men to support him immediately!" Nie Xiaoyu said sternly.

"I'll contact headquarters now..."

Qin Guowu immediately had the communications team contact headquarters. Luo Guowei, upon hearing that Wan Yunting had stayed alone at the base to kill Morton, yelled at Qin Guowu and the others over the phone, asking why they didn't stop Wan Yunting.

At this moment, everyone at the headquarters of the entire Chinese peacekeeping force believed that Wan Yunting would not return.

He Yongchang at headquarters also received the call and learned the news, frowning and falling into silence.

Although everyone knew Wan Yunting's capabilities were extraordinary, they didn't believe he was capable of challenging Morton's entire base, with hundreds of mercenaries and armed elements, all by himself...

"Chief, you should come and see!"

At this time, a drone operator noticed something was wrong and immediately asked He Yongchang to look at the large screen. The screen displayed the ground view of Morton's base, as seen by a low-flying drone. A large group of mercenaries and armed elements were heading towards the building complex in the northwest area of the base as if they had gone mad...

"What are they doing?"

Political Commissar Ren, seeing the blurred image, didn't understand what was happening with Morton's base's mercenaries and armed elements.

"They seem to be chasing someone!"

The drone operator controlled the aircraft to fly low again and again, risking being shot down, trying to get a clear view of what was happening.

"Wan Yunting, they must be chasing Wan Yunting!"

He Yongchang pointed at the blurry figure on the screen, believing that the base's mercenaries were definitely pursuing Wan Yunting.

"Quick, contact the people over there immediately and find a way to support Wan Yunting, you must bring him back intact." He Yongchang turned and shouted sternly at Political Commissar Ren and the others.

"Yes..."

Political Commissar Ren immediately took out his phone and contacted Jian You, who was leading the large support force. He instructed him to discuss countermeasures with Qin Guowu and the others and issue orders to send troops to support Wan Yunting...

"Please rest assured, Chief, we guarantee to bring Doctor Wan back!"

After hanging up the phone, Jian You said to Qin Guowu, Lu Xin, and Nie Xiaoyu: "The headquarters' drones have located Doctor Wan still in the base, being pursued by mercenaries, so they have ordered us to dispatch troops immediately to rescue Doctor Wan."

"Then let's not waste any more time, let's go quickly." Lu Xin and Qin Guowu, hearing that Wan Yunting was still alive, were revitalized.

Even if Wan Yunting couldn't kill Morton, the fact that he was still alive in the base was already considered a miracle by Qin Guowu and Lu Xin.

Instantly, led by Qin Guowu, Lu Xin, and Nie Xiaoyu, over a hundred peacekeeping soldiers drove rapidly towards the northwest direction of Morton's base...

At headquarters, He Yongchang received a call from the UN Secretary-General and after a long conversation, he hung up, his face filled with excitement. He said to Political Commissar Ren, "The UN has issued an order to jointly deploy peacekeeping forces from various countries to Tsali to annihilate Morton's mercenaries!"

"That's great, this news comes at the right time." Political Commissar Ren was excited.

This was because they had previously been hesitant to send a large number of troops to Tsali, as the UN had not yet agreed, to avoid other countries suspecting that Chinese peacekeeping forces had ill intentions in the Tsali region.

This was why He Yongchang had not sent a large force directly to Tsali to attack Morton's mercenary base and rescue Gu Yingbo!

Now that the UN had agreed and had investigated clearly, it was confirmed that Morton was behind the Red Devil La infectious virus!

This had caused grave concern among various countries, and an order had been issued to eradicate Morton's mercenaries!

"The UN learned that we were in Tsali to rescue Gu Yingbo, so peacekeeping forces from other countries have also urgently dispatched troops to Tsali to provide support."

He Yongchang smiled and said, "The Commander stationed forty kilometers away from Tsali in Pakistan not only sent troops but also dispatched several helicopters and drones."

Political Commissar Ren said, "Why don't we contact their commander and ask them to help Doctor Wan?"

He Yongchang nodded and smiled, "That's what I was thinking. Quickly, contact the Commander of Pakistan..."

Meanwhile, at Morton's base, in the building complex of the northwest district of the town, the sound of artillery fire continuously echoed in the sky...

Wan Yunting, holding an assault rifle, jumped into an alley. He shot and killed anyone he saw carrying a gun. At the same time, he headed north, which was a route he had planned long ago: directly to Algeria, bordering Tsali in the Republic of Mali!

Bang bang...

Wan Yunting shot and killed two more local armed elements. He saw a military jeep ahead, immediately ran over, jumped into the car, saw the keys were there, turned the ignition, and drove off towards the north...

"Where is he, chase him..."

A group of elite mercenaries pursued him, saw the direction Wan Yunting was driving, and opened fire while chasing...

Simon Lax, in the command center, received a call from a UN agent and learned that the UN had issued orders to attack them, which made his face turn grim.

"Kabbu, have you caught that Chinese person yet?"

Simon Lax contacted Kabbu, who was currently in a car chasing Wan Yunting. He shouted, "No."

Simon Lax glared and slammed his fist on the table, startling the other members of the command center who dared not move and all looked at him...

"Kabbu, immediately order everyone to retreat!"

After weighing his options, Simon Lax glared and shouted into the phone to Kabbu.

"Why?"

Kabbu didn't know yet and shouted, "Aren't we going to avenge the boss?"

Simon Lax shouted, "The virus incident has been exposed, and the UN has issued orders to attack us. Peacekeeping forces from various countries are heading this way. Do you want to stay here and wait for death?"

"Damn it..."

Upon hearing this news, Kabbu cursed in anger and shouted to Simon Lax, "You order the others to retreat first, I'll continue to chase that Chinese person. I must avenge the boss."

Hearing this, Simon Lax directly hung up the phone and then ordered everyone else to immediately notify all elite mercenaries to retreat, their target being the east...

In an instant, all elite mercenaries received the order to retreat. They immediately stopped pursuing Wan Yunting and returned to pack their belongings and withdraw...

However, Kabbu, watching the time, took his twenty-six elite mercenaries and the local scattered armed elements and continued to pursue Wan Yunting...

As for these local armed elements, Simon Lax had no intention of taking them with him during the retreat, so he naturally ignored them. As long as that group of elite mercenaries could withdraw from the base, they could make a comeback anywhere.

At this time, Nie Xiaoyu and Qin Guowu, leading a hundred peacekeeping soldiers, were driving towards the northwest of Morton's base. The armed elements inside also discovered them, and the two sides immediately engaged in fierce combat...

Several modified off-road vehicles were equipped with machine guns, firing at the group of armed elements outside the base...

Boom...!

Several mortar shells flew over, overturning a vehicle, and several peacekeeping soldiers were blown into bloody messes...

"Quick, quick, quick..."

Lu Xin and the others shouted, telling the drivers of the vehicles to quickly head towards a breakthrough point in front of the base...

"Has the drone locked onto Doctor Wan's location?"

Qin Guowu shouted to the team member controlling a small drone searching for Wan Yunting's location above the base.

"Locked on, Doctor Wan is inside the base, but he seems to be heading north!" the team member quickly shouted.

"North direction?"

Qin Guowu, while firing his gun, frowned and didn't immediately grasp Wan Yunting's intended escape route. He quickly contacted Nie Xiaoyu in front, saying, "Captain Nie, Doctor Wan is heading north now!"

Nie Xiaoyu raised an eyebrow and immediately thought of something, saying, "He should be escaping Tsali and entering Algeria!"

"Algeria?"

Qin Guowu and Lu Xin were stunned upon hearing this and immediately understood: "So Doctor Wan had planned his escape route long ago, heading directly to Algeria, making it impossible for Morton's mercenaries to pursue."

"What should we do now? Should we follow Doctor Wan's route?" Lu Xin asked.

Qin Guowu said, "Let's contact headquarters first to report Doctor Wan's escape route, and let the chief contact the people in Algeria!"

"Right, quickly..."

Nie Xiaoyu replied, then continued to fire her gun at the armed elements from the base...

The two sides were fighting fiercely, with bullets crisscrossing the night sky. Many soldiers were hit and fell from their vehicles, and another vehicle was hit by a shell, flipping over and then crashing heavily to the ground...

"Ah..."

Many soldiers were blown to pieces, their limbs torn apart, screaming in agony...
