Chapter 266: Three-sided attack!

Chapter 266: Attack from both sides!

Li Xidong and others who were waiting outside saw Xiao Zhou coming back alone. Li Xidong immediately stepped forward and asked Xiao Zhou: "Xiao Zhou! How is it? Why did you come back alone? Where is Comrade Jia Dongming?"

When Xiao Zhou heard Li Xidong's question, he thought of what had just happened in the jungle. Although he had long been accustomed to life and death, the traps set by the bandits for them still made him feel a little scared when he recalled them.

Facing Li Xidong's question, Xiao Zhou showed an expression of admiration on his face, and reported to Li Xidong excitedly: "Director Li! Today, thanks to Deputy Captain Jia, if he hadn't discovered through clues around that there were more than that many bandits and entered the woods for reconnaissance in advance, all of us would have capsized in the ditch and fallen into the trap set by the bandits for us."

When Li Xidong heard what Xiao Zhou had said, his expression suddenly changed. He asked Xiao Zhou in a very serious tone, "Xiao Zhou! What did you say? The bandits set a trap in the woods and waited for us to fall into it? What on earth is going on?"

When Xiao Zhou heard Li Xidong's question and saw everyone's puzzled expressions, he quickly introduced them to the others: "Director Li! Just as Deputy Captain Jia said, there are more than just the three bandits hiding in this forest."

"It can even be said that the three men were just bait used by the gang to lure us into a trap, because right here in this forest, the gang used several high grounds and several light and heavy machine guns to set up an inverted triangle ambush. As long as we enter the ambush circle, with the firepower deployed by the enemy, it will be difficult for us to get out alive."

When Li Xidong and others heard what Xiao Zhou had introduced and learned about the situation in the forest, they all couldn't help but gasp. At the same time, they also realized that the encounter between this group of bandits and the militia was not an accident, but a carefully planned conspiracy against them.

In this heavily guarded Sijiu City, a group of bandits of unknown origin actually blatantly set a trap to ambush them. This is enough to show that this group of mysterious bandits are brewing a more important conspiracy, so they are trying to use this ambush to attract all the forces in the Sijiu City to Xiayunling.

After figuring out the real intention of the bandits, Li Xidong's face became extremely solemn, and he immediately ordered a subordinate beside him: "Xiao Chen! Go to Fangshan Commune and call Director Zhou of the Municipal Bureau. Report the situation here to Director Zhou truthfully. Also, remember to tell Director Zhou that this group of mysterious bandits probably want to carry out some conspiracy in Sijiu City and deliberately use this method to attract our police force."

The public security officer named Xiao Chen, upon hearing Li Xidong's order, immediately saluted Li Xidong and then ran towards the outside of Xiayunling.

After watching Xiao Chen leave to report the news, Li Xidong turned to Xiao Zhou and asked, "Xiao Zhou! Why didn't Xiao Jia come back with you? Are you sure about the ambush positions of the bandits? Now quickly draw the positions, and we will destroy these ambush positions now."

When Xiao Zhou heard Li Xidong asking about the visible and hidden sentries set up by the bandits, he could not help but recall the scene of Jia Dongming slaughtering the bandits. With an expression of great admiration on his face, he introduced to Li Xidong and others: "Director Li! The inverted triangle ambush set up by the bandits was destroyed by Deputy Captain Jia alone a long time ago."

"But the bandits have set up a position in front of their temporary base. Director Jia is keeping an eye on the remaining bandits. He asked me to come back and report, and then he will take you there."

After hearing what Xiao Zhou had said, Li Xidong learned that the inverted triangle ambush set up by the bandits was destroyed by Jia Dongming alone. He showed an incredible expression on his face and quickly confirmed with Xiao Zhou: "Xiao Zhou! What did you say? The inverted triangle ambush set up by the bandits was destroyed by Xiao Jia alone. Is this true?"

Xiao Zhou heard Li Xidong's question and saw Li Xidong's shocked expression. He nodded affirmatively and replied, "I saw this with my own eyes. After Deputy Captain Jia entered the woods ahead, he first lurked behind a position and smashed a bandit's chest with one punch. Then, he used the cover of the woods to clear out the bandits ambushing in the woods one by one."

After hearing Xiao Zhou's introduction, Li Xidong simulated in his mind the entire process of Jia Dongming cleaning up the bandits. This made him feel incredible, and he immediately shouted to the other subordinates: "Let's go! Let's go!"

Led by Xiao Zhou, Li Xidong and his companions soon arrived at the woods where the bandits were ambushing them. Looking at the light and heavy machine guns placed high up and the positions where the muzzles were pointed, Li Xidong and his companions were sweating coldly. Li Xidong looked at the bandits lying on the ground, who were already breathless, and his face became very gloomy. He asked Xiao Zhou in a very serious tone: "Xiao Zhou! Where are the remaining bandits?"

When Xiao Zhou heard Li Xidong asking about the remaining bandits, he immediately pointed to the hill not far away and reported respectfully: "Director Li! The remaining bandits are hiding in that hill."

After hearing Xiao Zhou's report, Li Xidong glanced at the hill not far away and immediately ordered, "Xiao Zhou! Lead the way, go meet up with Xiao Jia immediately, and then catch these ignorant bandits in one fell swoop."

"Second brother! Look, how come that group of police officers successfully passed through the trap set by Lao Liu and others without making any noise." When Li Xidong and others were passing through the woods, the bandits who were ambushing halfway up the mountain discovered the traces of Li Xidong and others.

The leading gangster narrowed his eyes and frowned when he saw the police officers suddenly coming out of the woods. He replied in a very serious tone: "It seems that there are experts among these police officers. Brothers, get ready to attack immediately."

Jia Dongming, who was hiding behind the bandits with a light machine gun, saw the bandits pointing their guns at Li Xidong and others, so he immediately pointed the machine gun at the bandits and pulled the trigger.

"Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta!"

When the machine gun sounded, the bandit leader lying on the position suddenly felt a terrifying sense of crisis in his heart, which made him instinctively want to evade tactically. However, at this time, he had already been caught in the crosshairs of the machine gun by Jia Dongming. When the bandit leader made tactical evasion, three bullets hit his body directly.

The sudden sound of machine gun fire behind them really scared the remaining bandits. They turned their guns and launched a counterattack towards the ambush position of Jia Dongming.

Li Xidong and others who were approaching the hill heard sudden gunshots from the mountain and immediately looked towards the mountain. When they saw the bandits raising their guns and shooting at the mountain, they all raised their guns and aimed at the bandits.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

When gunshots rang out from the foot of the mountain, several gangsters were shot and fell to the ground. Faced with the double-sided attack from the police, and the fact that the gangsters were leaderless, some of them soon chose to lay down their weapons and surrender.

Li Xidong, who was about to rush to the front of the position, saw that the remaining bandits on the position had all raised their hands in surrender. He immediately led his men to the position, pointed his guns at the bandits who were kneeling and surrendering, and shouted loudly: "Surrender your guns and we will not kill you!"

Originally, Jia Dongming could have shot these bandits to death on the spot, but he did not do so because the bandits' actions made him realize that this group of bandits were just pawns thrown out by the real culprit behind the scenes. The other party had gone to great lengths to lure them here, and he must be planning a bigger conspiracy!

Jia Dongming, who was halfway up the mountain, saw all the remaining bandits raise their hands in surrender. He did not rush down the mountain immediately, but waited until Li Xidong and others completely controlled the scene. Then he rushed down the mountain with a light machine gun and said to Li Xidong: "Director Li! Let's interrogate these bandits on the spot and ask them what they want to do by taking such great pains to lure us here?"
