"Look, Boss Pongka, they're running..."
Para saw Li Guosheng and Luo Zhonghan, leading their men, desperately fleeing down the mountain.
"Damn it, I knew these guys were unreliable."
Pongka's eyes widened in fury, and he leaped up, raising his AK47 and unleashing a barrage of gunfire at Luo Zhonghan and his men. "Die, all of you..."
"Pongka, you son of a bitch..."
Seeing his key subordinates mowed down by Pongka, Luo Zhonghan, enraged, raised his gun and fired several shots at Pongka.
Fortunately, Babo, beside him, tackled Pongka to the ground, dodging the bullets. However, Babo took several shots to the back, spewed blood, and died...
"Let's go."
Luo Zhonghan was furious, but this was not the time to fight Pongka. He immediately led his men down the mountain.
Besides Li Guosheng and Luo Zhonghan, there were still some foolish cartel bosses willing to share Pongka's fate.
Boom…
In the pitch-black night sky, five drones turned back and launched a second round of bombing on the armed drug dealers in the area.
Meanwhile, inside Mian County.
"Who…"
The drug dealers left behind were awakened by the violent bombing from the back of the mountain. They found a team emerging from the direction of the dungeon – it was Wan Yunting and Yang Dong, Zhao Gang, and their special forces.
Bang…
With a flash of light, the few drug dealers were taken down by the special forces.
But this also alerted the surrounding drug dealers, who immediately swarmed forward.
"Zhicheng, take them to evacuate first," Zhao Gang immediately said to Zhong Zhicheng beside him.
"Understood."
Zhong Zhicheng turned to Wan Yunting and the others. "Follow us, quickly..."
Wan Yunting nodded, bringing Meiying and Tianlang. Yang Dong also brought Ji Jing, Kong Lian, and a group of others. At the same time, two special forces members carried Niu Jinwu. Under the cover of Zhong Zhicheng and four other team members, and with Zhao Gang providing covering fire, they retreated towards the river in Mian County.
This was because several pre-arranged speedboats had appeared at the riverbank where Zhao Gang and his team had arrived, ready to provide support.
Zhao Gang, leading the remaining dozen or so members, provided cover for Wan Yunting and the others as they retreated, while engaging the continuously advancing drug dealers. Drug dealers were shot down one after another.
This elite special forces unit from a certain military region in Yunnan was not to be trifled with. After briefly stunning the drug dealers into not daring to emerge, Zhao Gang immediately ordered everyone to retreat.
Wan Yunting, Meiying, and Tianlang had already reached the riverbank. Zhong Zhicheng made contact with the reinforcement team, and they promptly carried Niu Jinwu onto a speedboat. Turning to Wan Yunting, he shouted, "Get on the boat, let's get out of here quickly."
"What about them?"
Wan Yunting pointed at Meiying and Tianlang, as well as Yang Dong who had not left.
Zhong Zhicheng glared and shouted, "Director Lu ordered that only your safety needed to be ensured!"
This made Wan Yunting frown. He glanced at Meiying and Tianlang, and Yang Dong.
"You guys go first. We'll return to Mei Lesi and find a way to leave."
Yang Dong understood. After all, they were drug dealers, and the Chinese police couldn't take them along.
Meiying and Tianlang cared even less; they could always find other ways to leave.
But Wan Yunting didn't think so. After all, he had called Meiying and Tianlang, and Yang Dong and his team had been protecting him all along. If he left like this, it would be unrighteous.
Moreover, Meng Hu and Di She were still waiting for him in Mei Lesi.
"You go ahead."
Wan Yunting, having made up his mind, decisively said to Zhong Zhicheng, "We're going back to Mei Lesi, and then we'll go back."
Zhong Zhicheng glared and asked, "You really aren't coming with us?"
Wan Yunting shook his head and ignored him, turning to Meiying, Tianlang, and Yang Dong. "Let's go."
"Alright."
Seeing this, Yang Dong didn't say anything further. They immediately returned to the parking lot at the entrance of Mian County. Soon, they drove out in several cars. Wan Yunting, Meiying, Tianlang, and Yang Dong got into the cars without any further ado and headed towards Mei Lesi.
At this moment, Zhao Gang and his team emerged and happened to see the tail of Wan Yunting's convoy leaving. He ran to the riverbank and asked Zhong Zhicheng, "Where are they going?"
Zhong Zhicheng said grumpily, "That Wan Yunting refused to come with us and left with those drug dealers."
"What."
Zhao Gang glared, pointing at Zhong Zhicheng, and said angrily, "Director Lu ordered that your primary task was to ensure his safety. How could you let him go like this?"
Zhong Zhicheng looked innocent. "He wanted to leave, what could I do?"
Zhao Gang looked at the convoy that had long disappeared. Zhong Zhicheng said, "Captain Zhao, that kid should be fine. Let's send Jinwu back first."
"Okay, you guys withdraw first. We still need to wait for Director Lu to issue new orders."
Zhao Gang waved his hand, knowing that if he couldn't bring Wan Yunting back, Director Lu would definitely scold him.
So Zhong Zhicheng and his team took Niu Jinwu and left first, leaving Zhao Gang to continue lying low on the outskirts of Mian County.
At this time, the bombing in the back mountain had stopped. The joint forces of the three countries had pressed forward and were exchanging fire with the remaining armed drug dealers.
However, after two rounds of bombing by five drones, more than half of these drug dealers had already died. At the same time, cartel bosses like Li Guosheng and Luo Zhonghan had fled with the remaining men during the first round of bombing.
Therefore, what remained were Pongka's armed forces and the remnants of several other foolish cartel bosses' forces. Although a small portion had escaped, a large number of those who stayed had died. Now, they were all dazed by the bombing and were incapable of fighting the joint forces of the three countries. They were shot dead as soon as they appeared.
For a time, the air was filled with the strong smell of blood, the stench of burnt bodies, and the sounds of tragic screams and gunshots. The joint forces of the three countries kept pushing forward, overwhelming the remaining armed drug dealers, leaving them no chance to retaliate.
"Ah, I'll kill you..."
Pongka, in a state of madness, continuously fired his gun at the advancing troops. However, more of his drug dealer subordinates were hit and fell. Para and the other subordinates were filled with panic and kept pulling Pongka to retreat. "Boss, let's go quickly, or it'll be too late."
"I'm not leaving, I'll fight them to the death..."
Pongka, whose eyes were bloodshot from killing, had completely lost his reason. He flung off Para and the others and continued to fire his gun at the continuously advancing joint forces of the three countries.
"Ah..."
Pongka cried out in pain as he was shot in the left shoulder. Para, anxious, immediately snatched Pongka's AK, threw it away, called for the subordinates, and forcefully dragged him away.
"It's Pongka, we can't let him escape..."
A commander in the joint forces of the three countries saw Pongka's figure and immediately led his men in pursuit, shouting, "Capture him alive..."
Seeing Pongka flee, the remaining drug dealer forces scattered like headless chickens, but many were subdued and captured by the joint forces of the three countries.
"Quick, quick, get in the car..."
Para shoved Pongka into a pickup truck and urged the subordinate in the front to drive away quickly.
"Get lost..."
The enraged Pongka shoved away the subordinate who was bandaging his wound. With bloodshot eyes, he looked at the chasing subordinates. There were less than thirty of them. The majority had died in the shelling in the back mountain.
This devastating defeat had driven Pongka completely mad. He took out drugs from his pocket, ate a large mouthful, then snatched an AK from a subordinate and frantically fired at the pursuing troops. "Ah, come on, die, all of you die..."
Para and the others, slumped to the side, looked dejected, knowing that tonight was their end.
