Chapter 603 Procrastination
At this moment, the people at the entrance of the village heard gunshots behind them and some people fled. Obviously, these people were not fully prepared in this conflict, so they immediately chose to give up after being hit and unfavorable. So someone soon gave up and continued to exchange fire with Donovan and others outside the village, and quickly retreated to the other side of the village.
Pete quickly took the opportunity to occupy the road from the entrance of the village. He fought for a while and asked Ailly to pick up Donovan and others outside the village.
Donovan glanced at the two or three people who had been killed by his side in the fire exchange and quickly walked to Pete. After looking at the road ahead that continued to penetrate the village, he said, "I will let the minibus come in immediately. You, Aili and Ochoa continue to move forward. I will be responsible for watching the minibus."
"I understand." Pete agreed and looked at the bodies of the armed personnel who had been killed and said, "It's better to bring their weapons and ammunition."
Donovan nodded and said, "I understand what you mean. Take action quickly."
Pete didn't say anything more, but looked at the minibus that had already driven from the entrance of the village and immediately signaled to Ellie and Ochoa and walked forward.
The road in this village is very narrow, and what you are walking in at this moment should be considered the main road in this village, but it is only enough for a minibus to drive and only one person walks through on both sides. At this moment, residents on both sides of the road closed the doors and did not dare to make a sound. So after the gunshots subsided, the whole village was surprisingly quiet, as if it was a place where no one was.
But Peter knew that the more this was, the more dangerous it was. This showed that the people here had considerable experience with such things. They were not panicked and at a loss, and knew what to do at such moments. In other words, these people might be helping the armed personnel to do something, after all, those people are local tyrants here.
"Is this a bit too quiet?" Ochoa asked while following Pete.
Pete said while paying attention to the movements on both sides of the road: "Don't talk, focus. Those who are driven away may come out from somewhere at any time."
"Is this possible? They seemed to be completely scared just now." Ochoa said.
"It's all." Pete said as he slowed down, and after looking back and forth, he said: "This is the way the guerrillas play. When retreating, he turns around and runs. It always makes people feel that they are running away. But it is not. They always appear suddenly when you relax your vigilance and take it lightly."
"Then where do you think they will be?" Ochoa glanced at the surroundings and said, "This village is very small. If we walk for another period, we will go out."
"If it were me," Pete stood up again and said, "It would probably take action when leaving the village. They are not stupid, and now they should know that they cannot destroy us at all. Then the task now is to find a way to delay us, at least to delay our actions so that those who come to support have more time."
Ochoa heard Peter say this: "They have companions? We won't have to do such things repeatedly along the way, right?"
"Don't worry about those for now." Aili signaled forward and said, "It seems that the village is about to leave the village ahead."
Pete looked forward. He saw that there were fewer buildings after about two hundred meters ahead, and further forward, it seemed like a path filled with sand and stones that was extremely bumpy.
Pete stopped again and looked back at Donovan who was protecting the minibus. He raised his hand to signal Donovan and then said through the intercom: "Wait. Ali and I will go ahead first."
Donovan immediately raised his hand and stopped when he saw Pitt's sign. After hearing Pitt's words, he said, "Hurry up. We must leave here as soon as possible."
"I understand." Pete agreed and looked at Ochoa and said, "Kanji, you are waiting for us on the roadside in front. Ali and I will go to the entrance of the village first."
"The roadside in front?" Ochoa looked in the direction that Pete pointed, and said, "Is it the place with a fork in the road?"
"Yes, that's the path. You have to help us stare at the sides behind us." Pete said.
"Okay. I understand." While Ochoa responded, Pete took Ellie and walked out carefully. Donovan and the others continued to follow.
Pete and Ailly soon approached the entrance of the village. This place was the same as in the village. Although you could see some items that were obviously discarded in panic on the road, there was no one there.
Pete stopped at the entrance of the village. The terrain outside the village was very simple. Except for some low shrubs, the other places had a wide view. In other words, if the other party was still thinking about attacking his team of people, then only the place where he was standing was taking action.
Just as Pete was about to turn around and ask Donovan and the others to speed up so that they could leave here as soon as possible, Ochoa behind them discovered the situation. He turned to his left and raised his gun while saying, "Note that there are people moving in the west of the village."
Pit immediately looked to the west, and just as he turned his head, gunfire came from Ochoa. The gunfire was not Ochoa's attack, but the opponent's attack on Ochoa. Ochoa saw that after a little dodging, he fired and started to fight back.
Pete quickly glanced at the west side, and looked at the place where he was, just some low houses, and no one was seen moving around the house. But this not only did not make Pete feel safe, but made him feel even more dangerous. After all, it is the most dangerous that cannot be seen in many cases. And these houses are very close to the roadside. Who knows what is hiding behind these houses? Once the minibus passes here, as long as these people come out of the hidden place, it is equivalent to coming to the bus. Not to mention pulling the trigger or holding a brick in his hand, as long as he has a correct head, it can cause considerable harm to the car and the people in the car.
So even though there was no situation at the entrance of the village at this moment, Pitt was still ready to take the initiative. After all, you can't waste time here now and wait for the opponent to take the initiative to attack. So Pitt wanted to drive the opponent away, at least he could create a safe distance that would allow the minibus to pass through safely.
"Ellie. Stay here, pay attention to the east side. Be careful around these houses, don't be careless." Pete looked at the east side and spoke to Ellie beside him.
