death of hope

Chapter 432 "Corporate Warrior" (342) The muddy trench
The Conservative Party senator stared at the big screen, paying attention to the real-time developments on the battlefield, applauding or cursing a few words from time to time, and others followed suit.

In the absolutely safe command cabin, dignitaries can listen to elegant classical music, wear silk suits, enjoy good food and wine, and point out the country to the screen at the same time,

In such a clean and tidy place, it is inevitable to have an illusion. The mud and blood on the battlefield seem to be what is happening in another world.
The lives of corporate soldiers, logically, have also become consumables that can be monetized.

Seeing that the armored vehicle could not continue to penetrate into the jungle and the attack stagnated, the senator was worried that the mission target would escape, so he ordered the ground troops to storm towards the final stronghold regardless of the cost.

The mercenaries and corporate fighters advanced on foot, clearing the fortifications one by one with flesh and blood, and the casualty rate began to skyrocket.

After seeing countless wounded, blasted, and charred corpses, Johnny Blazer suddenly realized,

From the very beginning, the senator seriously underestimated the difficulty level of the operation, underestimated the enemy's determination, and just kept repeating, insisting on capturing the target alive.

(Fuck, damned politicians... turned this rainforest into a meat grinder, which is the evil result of laymen commanding experts.)
What the ground troops have to face is not just those brave guerrillas, but the entire deadly and angry tropical rainforest.

The defenders have successfully domesticated or controlled a large number of local wild beasts, and released them as killers in critical moments.

In the battle to sweep the trenches, some Greenhill jerboas with explosives or incendiary bombs strapped to their bodies swooped towards the attackers. These flexible, jumping up and down little things are difficult to target.

MacMillan Enterprise soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and even the most elite Alpha Squad was unable to escape unscathed.

The sniper Mehmadi climbed up a branch of a giant tree and found an ideal shooting position. Relying on his superb shooting skills and equipment advantages, he killed three colleagues in a row.

Just as he spotted the No.4 sniper hiding in the bushes and wanted to take aim, a Greenhill orangutan implanted with a chip swung over along the vines.

"not good!"

The keen Mehmadi quickly detected the threat, drew his pistol and shot at the orangutan.

The moment the orangutan died, because the immune system stopped, a large amount of stimulants and compounds circulating in the blood vessels reacted quickly, turning the corpse of the poor beast into a powerful biochemical bomb.

The sniper was only equipped with light and flexible carbon fiber armor in order to maintain flexibility, which could not resist the attack of shock waves and bone fragments. Mehmadi, who was severely injured by the explosion, lost consciousness and hit the ground heavily from a branch more than ten meters away.

"Oh! No!!! Beard!"

The hacker Shaft threw down the tablet, and the controlled drone automatically switched to cruise mode. When he saw his teammates who were blown to pieces, he hurriedly shouted:
"Medical soldier! What the hell! Where are you going to die! Schaffna! Where's the medical soldier?!"

After shouting several times, there was no response. The nearest McMillan medical soldier, Miss Shafna, was injured by a booby trap hidden in the trench, and she bleed all over the place. In the end, the doctor couldn't heal herself, and died of hemorrhagic shock.

Wang Hongye came first and gave a cardiotonic agent to Mahmadi's blown arm. Lodayev arrived immediately and began to press for artificial respiration:

"Big Beard! Wake up! If you don't wake up, I'll beat you!"

"Give him another shot!"

A tall figure appeared: "The reserve team is here, and the medical soldiers will be here soon!"

After single-handedly killing a six-man heavy machine gun squad, Captain Marcus Lynch arrived upon hearing the news.

"How is he?"

"It can't be done..." Wang Hongye wiped her tears and said, "The bearded man wants to talk to you..."

Lynch held the hand that had been blasted to the bone, "I'm here." He put his ear on it and heard a faint voice:
"Boss...I'll wait for you...when you find Sig and the children...when the time comes, the big guys will...go to my house as a guest, my wife's roasted big fat lamb kidney... go down in one bite, old man It smells old..."

Lodayev was so tired that he was sweating profusely. No matter how many cardiotonic drugs he injected, it didn't work. His hand still lost strength and drooped.

Marcus Lynch held that hand and foot for half a minute before letting go, closed his unwilling eyes, and took off his tactical windbreaker to cover his head;
(The company will give a large pension, but how can I... give this bloody money... to his family?)

Lynch's head began to throb again. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain, lifted Mahmadi's collar, pulled the blood-stained dog tag from his gradually cold neck, and put it into the tactical bag. Heartache.

Wang Hongye hugged Lodayev and burst into tears, Shaft beat his chest with swollen eyes:

"Big Beard, I won't call you a country bumpkin again... I'm sorry!"

Corporal Comanche remained silent and bowed his head in silence.

A rookie corporate soldier ran over happily: "Captain! We captured this trench!"

Another recruit keenly sensed that the atmosphere was not right and pulled his friend away.

When Johnny Blazer arrived, he saw the sniper covered by the cloak and understood everything:
"Sorry, I couldn't come to support in time..."

"It's not your fault, old company commander, those self-destructing animals are hard to guard against, and your side has suffered a lot." Lynch put on his helmet and calmed down his emotions:
"The medical team will move his body back to the armored vehicle, the senator is urging again... Can't let the mission target get away,

Alpha Squad, come with me..."
