To Lan Bo, he would rather be caught by the police in any place outside of the State of Texas after he escaped than be caught by Will and the rest, or even the police in the State of Texas. Previously, Deputy Chief Gorky had used private punishment on him in the small town police station. One could imagine how the people of the state of Texas had treated him. Moreover, Gorky was dead. Who knew if he would be shot dead in the mountains by Will and the others after surrendering? When the report said 'apprehension', no one in the state of Texas would care who the dead person was.
Even if the Eagle Country's military came out to ask, Will and the others had the same story, and a deputy chief police officer had really died. This case would not be solved.
Although Lan Bo didn't think so deeply, as a veteran who had been fighting in the jungle for five to six years, he had a natural instinct for danger. Just from the tone of Will and the others, he knew that this matter couldn't be resolved peacefully. He stepped back slowly, and when Will saw Lan Bo retreat, he pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Bang! The bullet grazed Lan Bo's forehead and almost caused his head to explode.
" Da da da, da."
When the other police officers heard the gunshots, they also pulled the trigger. In an instant, the sound of three shots unique to the M16 spread throughout the valley.
Unfortunately, this group of people were all useless. They were looking down from above and were less than 40 meters away in a straight line. Other than Will's first shot, the dozens of bullets after that were all hit. When Lan Bo's staggering figure disappeared behind the huge rock, Will shouted," Cease fire!"
However, even after the order to cease fire was shouted several times, there were still people who refused to let go of the trigger. William, who was holding a Remington 700 shotgun, pursed his lips. He despised these people for being useless.
"William, why didn't you shoot?”
Bellman, who was closest to William, looked at the M16 in his hand angrily. Then, he looked at the rifle in William's hand that was equipped with a 10x scope. William shrugged and pretended to be innocent." I'm sorry. I really wanted to help. Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken the rifle out of its holster, loaded it, and even opened the scope. But Sheriff Will warned me not to shoot without his orders. Moreover, the situation just now was too sudden. A rookie like me can't be like you guys and shoot with a gun."
After hearing this explanation, everyone nodded helplessly.
They had all heard Will's warning. William had said that he had never touched a gun when he sent out the hunting invitation yesterday.
"William, why don't you lend me your gun?”
Old man Noel, who was leading the hunting dog, looked at Will and the others with dissatisfaction." You bunch of idiots. You only know how to use automatic rifles, but don't you know how to use a scope?”
Will and the others couldn't help but look at Parker, who was in charge of bringing the guns. Parker shrugged helplessly and said," Chasing criminals isn't hunting. Of course we'll bring automatic weapons to suppress the other party."
Alright, stop talking."
Will interrupted the others 'complaints, but he was complaining in his heart that the M16 was a lousy gun. Unless it was modified, it was never designed to have a scope. As for the special sniper version of the M16, the Eagle Country's military did not purchase it because they despised it. As for the Eagle Country's citizens, they would naturally use Remington or Winchester shotguns that were more accurate and were more affordable. It took them more than two hours to reach the bottom of the cliff. It was already past two in the afternoon.
William stood on a rock and looked at Lan Bo's escape route. He wondered if he should separate from Will and the others now.
In case he met Lan Bo who was determined to take revenge and the trap that Lan Bo set in the forest.
" Squeak squeak, calling the sheriff, calling the sheriff."
A call request sounded on the walkie-talkie. Will took the microphone from Leon." This is Sheriff. Please speak."
" Boss, we're in trouble," the person in the police station reported." We just received news from the military. The John Rambo you're after is a Green Beret. "And this guy isn't an ordinary special forces soldier. He's a war hero who received a medal from the Congress for his military achievements."
"Damn it, Green Beret?"
Before Will could say anything, Parker actually smiled and shook his head as he muttered," There are less than 400 Green Berets in the entire Eagle Country, including those who are still in the Vietnamese battlefield. This is great. We still have to face the elite of the elites. This matter has to be handed over to the state police to handle. Otherwise, who knows if we are chasing after Rambo or if Rambo is hunting us in the jungle?”
Leon, who was standing at the side, cursed in his heart,"Shut up, Parker."
With that, everyone looked at Will, who was in charge. Will, who was also shocked by the news, wanted to give up. However, when he saw Gorky's corpse and the shooting on the cliff just now, he couldn't help but try to persuade him," We should have hit that lunatic a few times just now. And we have seven people, three hunting dogs, five automatic rifles, one hunting rifle, and six pistols. Do you want the people in town to call us useless and cowards?”
" But the Green Berets are not to be trifled with.
When Parker heard Will's words, he immediately suggested," Will, this isn't an ordinary thief, robber, or murderer. The state police are better at handling this than us."
If Parker had only said that Rambo was difficult to deal with, it would have been fine. However, this guy's words meant that the state police would be sent to their deaths. This instantly made Will feel as if he had been slapped in the face by his subordinates. At the same time, it was equivalent to admitting to everyone that he was so incompetent as a sheriff that he had a coward among his subordinates. How could Will, who was used to being a local tyrant, endure this?
He rushed to Parker's side in anger, grabbed his collar and hair, and dragged him to Gorky's corpse.
"The person who died now is not only your colleague, but also a friend your parents knew before they gave birth to you. "I don't care if you're willing to help or not, but I won't allow a coward like you to drag us down. Moreover, if you don't shut up, when we nail that madman's medal on his heart, it'll be the time for you to take off your police uniform and scram home."
Parker instantly cowered." Alright, alright, Will. I apologize. Just pretend I didn't say that." Looking at Parker's puss, Will pushed him away in boredom and turned to look at the others.
Seeing Leon, Bellman, and David lowered their heads. Will nodded in agreement and looked at William.
Will was shocked.
They had only brought guns and ammunition with them. After walking for a few hours on the mountain road, they were not only tired but also sweaty. Their clothes were almost soaked. However, William, who was only 17 years old, was carrying a long and short gun, ammunition, a dagger, a tent, a kettle, a small pan, and a backpack with three days 'worth of food. He did not sweat much, and he did not look like someone who had walked on the mountain road for a few hours. He couldn't help but ask tentatively," William, what do you think?”
