This witch calls me daddy

Chapter 382 Dead or Not Dead?

The purge operations continued, and sporadic gunshots could be heard from time to time.

From a distance, sometimes it sounds like a child playing with cannons, and the stars make a bang sound; sometimes it sounds like a hanging whip on New Year's Eve, crackling into pieces.

Lu Ye and the girls were nesting in an abandoned building, eating field food from military backpacks. The war preparation materials this time were purchased and prepared in the northern city-state. Some of the self-heating food packaged in tin foil, the ingredients and flavors are also the characteristics of the city-state, but they have a unique flavor.

"It's so easy to complete. I haven't even had enough fun yet." Thorns muttered as he ate the bun.

Lu Ye smiled hoarsely: "I originally didn't plan to take action here, but since someone else is taking the blame, I'll just do it."

Baisili held a bowl of tomato soup, blew on it, and said, "It's not that big of a deal to say he is the leader of the Republican Army. I didn't even have a chance to do anything during the whole process, so I was just cleaning up those shameless stinkers with Ge Lin. A gangster."

Lu Ye nodded matter-of-factly: "No matter what general leader, unless he is hiding in a military camp or a fortress, as long as he attends public events, he will be accompanied by at most a hundred or so people as escorts. There must be a flaw in the security defense. If you want him You basically don’t have to run away with your life.”

Suddenly, there was another burst of crackling in the distance, and the intensive gunfire seemed to be a fierce battle between the two sides, but it soon became silent.

Fighting in the city is like this, either endless ambushes with black guns, or short-term, high-intensity street fighting conflicts.

After carefully listening to the gunshots in the distance, Jialan, who had been on guard, suddenly sighed: "But I think this Republican Army is still a bit powerful. My leader has just been killed in battle, but he can still organize such a long-term and large-scale purge." Combat shows that their command system has not collapsed."

Lu Ye glanced at the two of them, thought for a while, and shook his head: "There is no reason to fight on your own in this ruined city. It is more important to eliminate dissidents in the center of power... As for the hostile factions, they probably don't know the news yet. .”

As soon as these words came out, Lu Ye was also stunned.

Xiaobai reminded: "Didn't you just say that? As long as he goes out in public, there must be flaws in his defense. But this Johar is determined to be the president of the country, and he must know that he is at high risk of being assassinated. Gao, that’s why there is such an arrangement... Is it reasonable to understand it this way?"

"We'll find out if it's a stand-in. We'll find out if it's a stand-in. Connors revealed that there is a Republican Army-controlled garrison nearby, which is also where he plans to settle. If Johar is still alive, there is a high probability that he will appear there... even if he is not there... , we’ll find out just by scratching our tongues and asking.”

Anjie carefully reviewed the process of Johar's speech just now, and said thoughtfully: "It seems that he... never left the speaker from the beginning to the end..."

Lu Ye: "You mean...the speeches were all recorded in advance?"

Anjie nodded: "As long as the recording is done, he can lip-sync. All he needs to do is put on makeup and look alike and come out to show off."

……

Yup!

Thorns: "Or maybe, the hostile factions have seized the opportunity and are fiercely counterattacking to expand their results?"

Lu Ye frowned slightly. He was very sure that the shot must have killed Johar, but Ge Lin's words revealed another possibility:

"Is it...a substitute?"

Lu Ye led the witch group out of the abandoned building where they were resting, walked out of the city, walked northwest, and entered a forest.

Ge Lin said quietly: "Perhaps, he is not dead."

Lu Ye knew a lot about Fu Hua Dao and knew that it was not difficult to make up a double, but it required repeated rehearsals and preparations: "Does a warlord leader who wants to be an emperor need to go to this level?"

Xiaobai chuckled: "Is it possible that the gunshots outside are actually them fighting within?"

Generally, if the leader is defeated, an organization will usually lose its organizational ability for a short time, either preparing for internal fighting, or it will be defeated and dispersed.

As if he understood the girl's question, Lu Ye nodded firmly: "I definitely didn't miss, one shot to the head."

Anjie looked over and looked at Lu Ye.

But the gunfire outside has not stopped from morning to afternoon, until now it is almost dark, and the scope is getting wider and wider.

Lu Ye thought for a while, smiled coldly, and began to pack his things.

Several other girls said in unison: "That's reasonable."

There is still a thin layer of snow on the ground, but the coniferous forest is still dense, making the entire forest area appear quiet and deep.

A few people marched silently from dusk until dark, and finally passed through the forest area and saw a small town outside the forest.

Behind the town is a huge industrial area. Trapezoidal cylindrical concrete buildings stand tall and stacked on top of each other. It is the first relatively complete giant building complex they have seen in these days.

Lu Ye checked on the map and realized that this was the famous Sancha Nuclear Power Plant.

During the Russi-Russian War, there was a fierce military battle around here.

When the Sancha Nuclear Power Plant was still in operation, it supplied a quarter of the electricity consumption in the Urals. When the war entered a fierce stage, this key energy facility became an important target. However, in the early days of the war, Lu Sen had no intention of becoming an enemy of the justice of the world. He was relatively restrained in the fight for the nuclear power plant. With strong military power, he bypassed the main facilities of the nuclear power plant and used interspersed encirclement and special infiltration. Isolated the local defenders, successfully forced the defenders to surrender, and seized the nuclear power plant.

But no one expected how crazy the Ural authorities, who had been corrupted and manipulated by the Western Union at that time, would be before their political collapse.

They actually took the initiative to attack and destroy nuclear power plants!

While using missiles and drones to continuously harass and attack the power station, they also produced "Blood and Tears News" and accused Luson of trying to destroy the power station.

Luson has repeatedly clarified that the Sancha Nuclear Power Plant has been occupied by the Luson military. They want to restart the power station to export electricity to the country. They will not destroy their own spoils. They warned the Ural authorities that destroying nuclear facilities will cause irreversible ecological disasters.

The two sides kept quarreling and blaming each other, and they did not stop using their hands, including shelling, air strikes, infiltration and sabotage...

As a result, the nuclear power plant finally couldn't resist the tossing and ravage from both parties, and inevitably, it leaked.

The leakage flows along the Sancha River and pollutes a large area of ​​land downstream. It is the main cause of the current predicament in the western Shandong region.

This became the second major nuclear leak in the Urals in half a century.

At this point, it is no longer known who was responsible in the end and who fired the last shot that caused the leak.

Even Connors, who witnessed the battle, didn't know who did it in the end.

Anyway, it has been leaked. Who did it is not so important. What is important is who can create a favorable "truth", gain more support from public opinion, and obtain greater benefits.

Therefore, in war, the first thing to die is the truth.

Lu Ye looked at the town in front of him again. It was a residential area that once provided supporting services for the nuclear power plant.

Seeing the few houses and buildings that exist is a testimony to the fierce competition that once broke out.

But among the rubble, there is a four-story hospital still standing.

I don’t know if this hospital was rebuilt or if both parties followed some Red Cross rules and managed to survive.

But when Lu Ye saw this hospital, he knew that there must be something wrong here.

Because there are too many people here.

Complete cordons, searchlights, and hundreds of soldiers as far as the eye can see have built a defense system. Watchtowers, bunkers, roadblocks, and fortifications are all available, and there are many vehicles parked inside.

This place is indeed a military gathering point of the Republican Army, and the gathering of so many people and such tight defense seems to indicate that there is a great person hiding inside.

Could it be Johar's true form?

Looking back at the girls behind them, the six of them were somewhat overestimating their ability to storm this place, but fortunately their goal was not to take down the entire fortress, but to find someone.

After patrolling half a circle around the edge of the forest, we soon found a front-mounted hidden sentry on a higher ground.

Jialan is a sniper and is familiar with this kind of outpost.

"Usually 1 to 2 people work in one shift, and the shift changes every four hours. An outpost safety report will be made every 4 minutes, using a coded signal to inform the rear outpost whether it is safe and whether there are any abnormalities. This means that if we step on this outpost, at most In 15 minutes, they will find out."

Lu Ye stared at the sentry post covered with white camouflage cloth, pondered for a moment, and began to formulate a battle plan.

The six people were divided into three groups. He himself was responsible for the most dangerous infiltration work, Jingji and Xiaobai were responsible for contact and support, and Anjie, Jialan and Ge Lin were responsible for feinting and confusing the enemy.

After assigning the task, he took Jingjing and Xiaobai to the outpost.

In any case, they have to find someone to find out whether Johar is dead or not.

The three of them all had relatively strong physical abilities. They lurked close to each other silently, and waited silently about 50 meters away from the secret sentry. They waited for more than an hour, and it was already so dark that there was no light from the stars and the moon, and then they saw someone coming to change shifts. .

As their shift ends, their time to move begins.

They had 15 minutes to explore the outpost, get information, and decide whether to stay or go.

Lu Ye no longer hesitated, lowered his body and took the lead.

At a distance of about 30 meters, time suddenly started to slow down, and he rushed towards him as fast as lightning.
