On the battlefield outside the desert gorge, Billy Russo watched a few helicopters on the devastated ground to send the seriously wounded major general and soldiers back to the camp.
Behind him, the heavily armed fighters are detaining the ten ring gang militants who also lost their fighting power due to high temperature and dehydration.
This attack against the advance troops cost the soldiers a lot. Even with Merlin’s intervention and assistance, more than 300 people at the time of departure only survived less than 150 people, and the people who survived were almost human. People are injured.
Seeing the tragedy suffered by the companions, the soldiers who came to support were filled with irresistible anger. They carefully gathered the remains of their companions, but they were very polite to the militants lying on the ground.
If it is not a follow-up matter that requires these captives to live, I am afraid that at this dawn, a massacre will appear in this desert.
As long as the armed elements who had been arrested resisted a little, they would greet a severe beating, and if they tried to fight back, they would be sent to by a bullet.
The captains turned a blind eye to the soldiers' behavior, and after roughly cleaning the battlefield, only the most honest prisoners survived.
"Where is Frank?"
Billy looked around, and he asked Kurt, the bloodied medical soldier around him,
"Why didn't I see him?"
"He took the fighting soldiers to the canyon."
Cote said:
"Those militants are still entrenched there, but there is already a lot of scattered sand. Frank intends to take this opportunity to completely defeat them."
"Mr. Merlin?"
Billy asked again:
"Why didn't I see him? You just said he rescued you?"
"Yes."
The medical corps nodded, and his eyes looked a little bit at the direction of the canyon. He said:
"He was dragging us back from like a soldier descending. When we escaped from that place, we could still hear the explosion in the canyon. He should still be fighting the bandits."
"he..."
Kurt wondered:
"He doesn't look like an ordinary person, I mean, he can fly, and... should it be magic?"
"He was not an ordinary person."
Billy gestured to the captain beside him, beckoning him to stay here and watch the captives.
The handsome guy grabbed the rifle behind him. He glanced at the tired Kurt. He said:
"Can we still fight? We are going to help Frank. There are more than 100 gangsters in the canyon. He may need support."
"can!"
Coe nodded. He reached out and took Billy's rifle, followed the heavily armed soldiers, and drove in the direction of the canyon.
On the other side, at the base of the Canyon of the Ten Commandments, the soldiers led by Frank Kasol swept across the canyon with a vengeance.
The leader of the Ten Commandments here, Ibn, disappeared, and the remaining crowd had no heads. Together with the horrible things they had encountered before, they faced a mess when facing soldiers with revenge and anger.
The hardest militants are still guarding the cave against the soldiers, but the unwilling guys have long escaped the chaos from the other side of the canyon.
On weekdays, the cave used to store materials was looted. After losing their strong suppression and encountering a fierce counterattack, these gangsters exposed the fragile nature.
"Destroy that firepower point!"
Frank Casor, who was painted on his face, carried a rifle in his hand and rolled on the ground full of smoke. He squatted on the ground and shot at the rebels with his knees, throwing a grenade from time to time to suppress the opponent Firepower.
In the battlefield of gunfire and rain, this soldier who had escaped from death was like a fish, like the most warrior. He alone attracted the firepower of a dozen others.
And under Frank's command, another team of soldiers outflanked the rear of the diehards, and after a burst of crazy gunfire mixed with explosions, the resistance of the firepower point came to an end.
Frank stood up. He pulled out the empty magazine and threw it on the ground, then put on a new magazine. In the smoke from the burning wood, he walked in the canyon, in a ruin beside him, an injured gangster quietly aimed his gun at the fierce demon who had killed many of them Soldiers.
But just before he shot, Frank turned sharply, and the pistol in his other hand was pointed at the dark corner.
"boom"
Precise shooting, before the enemy shoots the bullet, the brain of the lurker is opened.
Frank sniffed the air full of war, and there was a look of enjoyment in his eyes. He ticked his fingers towards the players around him, who handed him an anti-tank rocket launcher.
This fierce soldier manipulated this thing skillfully, aiming at the mountain caves hundreds of meters away, where a group of rebellious militants were pouring fire on the ground wantonly.
"You have sinned, you deserve to die!"
Frank said softly, and the next moment he pulled the trigger.
Accompanied by the shaking of his shoulder, a missile with destruction was whizzing towards the mountain wall in front of him. One second later, in the cheers of the soldiers, the rocket exploded precisely in the cave, and the flame it raised Illuminating the high part of this canyon, like a torch lit.
"boom"
After the rocket exploded, there was another deep vibration from the mountain on that side, as if the explosion triggered a miniature earthquake.
"What's the matter?"
Frank looked at the soldiers next to him, who shrugged:
"Maybe those caves collapsed. It happened to bury those mice in the mountain."
"what."
Frank smiled. He raised his rifle and looked at the chaotic canyon in front of him. He said:
"Go on fighting, the brothers who died in the sky are watching us... send those murderers to hell!"
"Frank!"
Just as the soldier would continue to fight, a call came from behind him, Billy Russo who hurriedly came to Frank, and he said to the soldier:
"Have you seen Mr. Merlin?"
"No. There are only enemies here."
Frank replied:
"No one knows where the wizard agent went. Is there anything wrong?"
"Have!"
Billy waved the communicator in his hand. He said:
"A few minutes ago, SHIELD called me over there. A chick named Hill told me that they detected Agent Merlin's positioning signal disappeared. The place where the signal last disappeared was in this canyon. They Suspecting that Agent Merlin is in danger, let us search the canyon to find him."
"No way?"
Frank's face changed slightly.
He is a kind of old-school warrior who values love and kills life and death. Merlin once saved him and now saves his brothers. After hearing the news of Merlin's disappearance, the soldier also raised deep concerns.
He glanced back at the canyon where gunshots were sounding. He said:
"Then the gangsters will be wiped out first, and then we will find him."
"Even if you go through the canyon, you have to find him!"
Two days later, Agent Maria Hill, who looked dignified, stood at the entrance of this desert canyon.
In front of her, the gorge full of death and strife has been quieted down, and most of the ten ring gang militants entrenched here have died or were caught.
The important stronghold of the Ten Commandments in Afghanistan has been completely broken through. But even after 2 days have passed, the smoky smoke in this canyon has not yet dissipated.
This victory is flawed.
This victory is not commendable either for the currently battered Ministry of Defense or for SHIELD.
More than 160 fighters suffered a one-time loss in the hinterland of Afghanistan. This news was published in major news media in North America less than 5 hours after the end of the battle. The Ministry of Defense failed to conceal this transmission. Quick news.
That was news that caused public opinion turmoil overnight.
It is said that there are already crowds of demonstrations on the streets of New York.
The Ministry of Defence was accused of public opinion, and even the president was put on fire. If Merlin did not work hard to prevent the soldiers from annihilating, I am afraid that Mandalin’s war conspiracy will be completely realized this time.
But for Agent Hil, these are not her concerns.
In the canyon, the soldiers of the advance troops and the temporary workers hired from the nearby city, a total of more than 400 people, are constantly exploring the expansive caves in the canyon. Those soldiers also carry special instruments to detect life activities.
This search operation has lasted for 48 hours, but so far, nothing has been achieved. However, because of the multiple collapses in the cave, the progress of this search has been unsatisfactory.
Agent Silent looked at the canyon where Merlin was buried, her eyes full of worry.
"It's like a maze underneath."
Billy Russo, who was the search commander beside Agent Hill, whispered:
"We went to see it after the battle. There were cracks and karst caves that formed naturally. Those militants also used a long time to manually dig a lot of bifurcated passages. Until yesterday afternoon, there was a continuous flow of hiding The gangsters in the cave were pulled out by us."
Agent Hill did not answer.
She is not in a mood to chat with the handsome soldier next to her. She came to Afghanistan with a mission.
After Merlin's positioning signal disappeared, Fury almost made a death order and must find Merlin in the shortest time.
Whether it is his person or his body.
There are even rumors that Chairman Pierce of the World Security Council is closely following the progress of this matter.
The pressure on Hill's shoulders was heavy, but the pressure did not just come from the superior's order.
For her, the missing Merlin is not only a colleague and chief, but also a trusted friend.
Hill has few friends, so each one is precious.
After a few minutes of silence, Hill suddenly asked:
"I read the dossier. Was one of your captains triggering the internal collapse of the cave?"
"Uh."
Billy said in embarrassment:
"It's not certain yet, but the collapse did happen after Frank fired a rocket into the cave. But that was not Frank's original intention. Please believe me. Agent Merlin saved Frank's life if he knew that Merlin was in the cave. , He must not be so reckless."
"Where is that captain?"
Hill asked coldly.
Billy pointed to the valley below, he said:
"there!"
"After Frank learned of the news, he plunged into those cave mazes. He had hardly rested in these 2 days. He was always looking for the missing Mr. Merlin."
"I know that in war, soldiers will do whatever they can to win."
With her eyes closed, Hill said wearily:
"Don't worry, Lieutenant, no one will blame Frank Cazor."
Looking down at the canyon in front of her, she said:
"I just hope that everything will go well."
"What's wrong there?"
Billy wanted to say something, but the next moment, he was attracted by the slight chaos in the canyon. He pointed to the ground below, and he said:
"It seems something is wrong."
Hill immediately picked up the telescope and looked at the chaotic canyon. She saw a group of soldiers clustering around a person coming out of the cave, while in that person's arms, holding another person.
Hill's heart beat violently at this moment.
"go!"
She dropped the telescope, turned and rushed into the military vehicle next to it. After a few minutes, the roaring military vehicle drove into the canyon.
Hill opened the door, jumped out of the car, and pushed away the crowd of soldiers and workers.
She looked at the tired Marine captain, lying beside him on a stretcher, unclothed and in distressed Merlin. She squatted down, stretched out her fingers, and touched Merlin's neck covered with dust and wounds on her skin.
At the next moment, Agent Hill's face showed a surprise expression.
He is still alive.
Although his pulse was weak, he was still alive.
"I found him."
Frank Cassor, who was sitting next to Merlin, didn't look much better at this time. He was like a roll in the dump. His hair and skin were covered with bruises and blood stains.
He sipped the water in a gulp and said to Agent Hill with apology:
"I almost did something wrong, but fortunately, I still have a chance to remedy. After Mr. Merlin wakes up, please tell me my apologies."
"You may apologize to him personally."
Hill glanced at the gray-faced soldier, and after finding Merlin, her inner anger suddenly dissipated by half, and she said to Frank:
"An apology is to be sincere. Especially in this kind of life-related matter."
"I'm a soldier, miss. I can't leave the battlefield at will. But after I return home from this war, I will go to apologize to him personally. I will definitely go."
The soldier glanced at Merlin beside him with a weary glance, a glance of happiness flashed in his eyes.
"He saved my life, and I almost killed him."
"I owe him twice..."
Frank pursed his lips and said:
"I will pay it back!"
