Chapter 227 Domineering Shock

Chapter 227 Domineering Shock

The old pastor had no choice but to look at Rambo with pleading eyes.

In the end, Rambo softened his heart.

But he did not reject Luke's proposal. Judging from the appearance of these mercenaries, he was not optimistic about them.

After all, he has lived here for almost twenty years and knows the situation here very well.

Although he didn't understand Luke's high-tech equipment, he knew that Luke was more reliable than this group of mercenaries just by seeing that Luke could use Soviet-caliber firearms.

Only novices can be seen carrying a Barrett in jungle combat.

So Rambo just agreed to take the mercenaries to the designated location. As for whether the hostages could be rescued in the end, it all depends on their abilities.

Luke's FBI identity obviously doesn't come in handy here.

On the boat, Luke and his companions sat clearly separated from the group of mercenaries.

Beckett and Luke had no intention of chatting with them and were both maintaining their weapons.

The jungle area has high moisture content and a poor environment, so Beckett and Luke added more gun oil when maintaining their weapons.

And the group of mercenaries were listening to their bald boss complaining about this mission.

Luke could tell that they were just going through the motions in order to defraud the old pastor of the balance.

Luke didn't even want to look at these mercenaries who had no professional ethics.

After maintaining the weapon, Luke took out his tablet and began to observe the images captured by the drone.

The old pastor had already told them the approximate location of the hostages and the forces they belonged to.

Now Luke is starting the search with Lilith's remote cooperation based on the information provided by the old pastor.

The mercenaries looked at a map they got from somewhere and asked Rambo to stop at a bend in the river.

They were getting ready to disembark.

Luke took a look at the location on the satellite map and was satisfied.

It seemed like these guys were just doing it for the sake of it, because the bald guy thought the old pastor was a little too fanciful.

Those missionaries may have been tortured beyond recognition, or even killed...

Luke agreed with their assessment of their own fighting capabilities.

Just these few people can't deal with the anti-government forces in Myanmar.

The captured missionaries were detained in the camp of a rebel major named Ting Te.

Even though he is a major, in a normal country he would usually be the commander of a battalion, but here he is only the size of a company.

Luke naturally would not doubt the information given by Lilith.

With such a small number of people, there are not enough for Rambo and Beckett to kill them all, so Luke just needs to play a supporting role.

After sending the mercenaries ashore, Rambo did not leave immediately.

He was also waiting to see what follow-up arrangements Luke had.

Although he had not been in contact with Luke for a long time, he always felt that this guy seemed to be confident.

And he didn't think his old friend Troutman would let a straw bag come here.

It seems that Luke has been eating and drinking here like a young man these days.

But everything was in order, and Luke had good self-control.

Luke had made all the preparations for this battle in advance, saving a lot of trouble.

Moreover, the high-tech equipment on him and Beckett gave Rambo an inexplicable sense of power.

After the mercenaries disappeared into the woods on the shore, Luke operated the tablet to keep the drone footage on them.

After passing through a short stretch of woods, the group of mercenaries arrived at a local village.

It seems that someone has come to pick them up.

But Luke was not surprised by this situation.

Since they don't use Rambo as a guide, they will definitely not be reckless and go deep into the enemy's territory alone. They will definitely have a backup plan.

This group of local villagers seemed to be the backup.

However, Luke always carries out missions alone, and even if he trusts the drones and Lilith, he will definitely remain vigilant against the locals.

This group of talents is the most unstable factor.

No matter where you are in the world, as long as it is not a tourist hotspot, it is not very friendly to outsiders.

Especially in remote places.

Moreover, in war-torn areas, local talents are the most likely to expose themselves.

There are traitors everywhere in that place.

So Luke would rather be alone and seek help from others locally.

He turned the tablet over and showed it to Beckett and Rambo.

"They found a guide in the local village. They seem to be child soldiers, but I don't think they are a good match."

Neither of the two veterans said anything, because that was how they had fought in the past.

In an unfamiliar environment, it is better to seek guidance from locals.

But Luke has the support of high technology and his own special skills, so he doesn't need locals.

Luke turned the tablet around, operated on it for a while, and then showed it to Beckett and Rambo.

"The enemy's military camp is not very large, only one company, but there are other anti-government army camps around it."

"They also have armed patrol boats on the river."

"Lilith calculated that if the camp was attacked, they would arrive to reinforce within 20 minutes during the day."

"If it's at night, it's hard to say. But the fastest it will take is 30 minutes."

"If we encounter bad weather, it is possible that we will give up on reinforcements."

After listening to Luke's briefing, Beckett and Rambo both said that 20 was enough...

Seeing that the two uncles tacitly chose to end the battle within 20 minutes, Luke's smile was harder to suppress than AK.

"OK, now we have to find a place to hide the boat to avoid encountering their armed patrol boats."

On this river, Rambo was very familiar with it.

They soon found a hidden river bay with dense trees on both sides, which could well conceal Rambo's small boat.

Rambo picked up the machine gun, carried his bow and arrow and the backpack provided by Luke, and the three of them got off the boat.

The only high-tech equipment Luke provided Rambo was a communication headset.

Lilith used two dual stealth drones in the sky to navigate everyone as if she was driving in the city.

And it is very precise, with positioning accuracy maintained within one meter.

With Lilith's precise navigation, Luke and his companions were even able to walk leisurely on the road, chatting as they walked.

After walking for half a day, Luke and his two companions were the first to arrive at the village where the missionaries were captured.

After being looted by the anti-government soldiers, there is no grass left here and corpses are everywhere.

Luke had already seen the situation here through the drone.

However, the images captured by drones are never as shocking as what you see with your own eyes.

The wooden houses here have been bombed or burned and none of them are intact.

There were dead and rotting bodies everywhere, on the open ground, beside the wooden houses, and in the paddy fields.

There were old people, children, women, etc. It was like a hell on earth.

But Luke and the other two were veterans who had seen all kinds of tragic situations, and they didn't feel the slightest bit of distress.

Just looking at this scene of hell on earth, one couldn't help but tighten the gun in his hand.

At this time, Lilith's voice came from the communicator.

"Boss, in the southeast direction, Lewis's team (the bald mercenary's team) is approaching your direction."

Luke turned on the communication and asked Lilith.

"How many of them came?"

"There are only five people in their team and two local villagers."

Luke said to Beckett and Rambo:

"I don't want to see them or have anything to do with them. Let's just hide and see what happens."

The two didn't say anything, but both nodded and agreed to Luke's arrangement.

Unconsciously, Rambo also agreed with Luke's command.

So far, Luke's arrangements have been cautious and detailed, which makes him feel like he is back on the battlefield.

At least he's more reliable than that old guy Trotman.

After the three of them found a hidden location, they waited for Lewis' team to arrive.

Just as Lewis's team was about to arrive, Lilith's voice came from the communicator again.

"Boss, a military vehicle appeared on the road to the northwest. Judging from the model and the soldiers' uniforms, they are anti-government forces, but it is unclear what unit they belong to."

Luke smiled.

"OK, that's enough, good job, Lilith."

Beckett had seen Lilith before. She had a hot body but looked like a cold-faced girl.

At first I thought she was Master Luke's personal maid, but I didn't expect that during the few days when Lilith introduced the base to him, he changed his attitude towards Lilith.

The things Lilith gave him were things he had rarely seen or even heard of.

This made him have a very satisfactory evaluation of Lilith, and he believed that Lilith was a very qualified and professional assistant.

But when they arrived here and started fighting, they didn't expect that the two dual stealth drones in the sky were actually remotely controlled by Lilith.

But Beckett knew that Lilith did not come here with them, but was sitting in Los Angeles half a world away, remotely controlling these technological weapons.

This really shocked Beckett.

But Rambo didn't know the details. He thought Lilith was in the US military base in Thailand.

But even so, he was surprised by the precise intelligence and navigation provided to Luke and his companions by controlling the drone.

Because the helmets worn by Luke and Beckett have the function of automatically adjusting the distance, Luke had to hand Rambo a telescope.

When Lewis' team arrived at the village and saw this hell on earth, they felt a little uncomfortable.

So I started communicating with the two local guides who were with them.

Although Luke and the others were not sure what they were talking about, it seemed like they were arguing.

After Lewis' team arrived here, they asked two local guides about the actual situation here.

They didn't expect that the village aided by these missionaries would turn into a hell on earth.

The local villagers have long been aware of what this group of anti-government forces have done.

Lewis and others were told that the missionaries were captured by a major company commander of the anti-government army, known as the Tingte Battalion.

There are several other anti-government companies like this one around, but they are all conscripts who were captured from other places.

Once the locals show signs of resistance, they will massacre the entire village.

Several small villages of dozens of people have disappeared.

Some small villages even take the initiative to merge with larger villages in order to protect themselves. Of course, this also comes at a price.

Upon hearing that the other side only had a company of troops, Lewis also backed off.

I know my own abilities. With just these five ugly guys, they can't beat a company, let alone a platoon.

These five people came to Thailand to work as mercenaries because they couldn't make a living elsewhere or something happened to them.

Besides, there is a rookie here, the squad sniper who is wandering in the jungle carrying a Barrett weighing more than ten kilograms.

When it comes to beating an entire platoon, Luke feels that they are overestimating themselves.

Two classes are enough to suppress them so that they can't even raise their heads.

With the equipment they brought, more than half of their ammunition would be used up in one battle, let alone fighting in the jungle.
