Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 374: Countdown to Death

Lu Shaohua didn't know if he would be shot in the vital parts and kill himself if he walked out without the cover of the wall. But he still had to give the order to rush out, because if he waited any longer, his situation might become more dangerous. Although someone had come in to support him, judging from Li Zhijie's expression, it seemed that it would take time for the people outside to arrive.

After a battle and a half, Lu Shaohua and his companions lost their advantage due to the huge disparity in numbers. If he wanted to survive, he had to buy time, rush out, and quickly reunite with the people outside regardless of casualties. Only in this way could his life be guaranteed. Otherwise, if he waited for the enemy to approach, everything would be over. He would be completely trapped and waiting to die.

When his own people rebelled, Lu Shaohua already knew that his opponents were well prepared. In addition, Chen Guobang blocked a bullet for him and his vitality was slipping away. If he was not rescued urgently, he might really have no hope of survival.

Therefore, Lu Shaohua had no choice. On the one hand, it was for the lives of himself and others, and on the other hand, it was for Chen Guobang to get medical treatment as soon as possible. Only by breaking out of the enemy's fire blockade could he see tomorrow's sun.

Li Shangkui and his men were former special forces soldiers, and each of them had unique skills. If they were allowed to rush out alone, they might have a chance of survival, but they also had to protect Lu Shaohua, which reduced their original strength a lot.

However, they did not hesitate at this moment. After hearing the order given by Lu Shaohua, Yang Yang handed the silver Desert Eagle and the two magazines full of bullets on his body to Li Wusheng, and held Chen Guobang in his arms, with an indifferent expression, and followed Lu Shaohua.

The same went for the others, including San Baobei and Fan Kun. Their expressions were all cold, without a trace of fear. Instead, they looked a bit bloodthirsty.

Li Shangkui and Li Wusheng protected Lu Shaohua and Yang Yang who was holding Chen Guobang on both sides. Li Zhijie took the lead and Fan Kun was the last one to come. The triplets fought on their own and had no stable position. At Lu Shaohua's command, they quickly rushed out and found a favorable position to open fire.

Lu Shaohua opened fire, and the enemies hiding in the dark also opened fire when they discovered the target. Especially the two snipers hiding in the dark, they aimed at the target and fired, but now there were snipers, it was not so easy to hit them.

Moving quickly, the shops on both sides of the street became the best cover. The sound of gunfire could be heard, including the sound of AK47, the sound of sniper rifles, and the sound of pistols. Suddenly, the street was full of gunfire.

"bump"

The bullet made a low sound when it hit his gun. Li Shangkui let out an "oh" and found that his arm was hit by a bullet. Blood was flowing from the wound, but Li Shangkui acted as if nothing had happened. The Desert Eagle continued to shoot bullets and attack the enemy.

"Speed ​​up and move forward, the enemy has sniper rifles." Lu Shaohua shouted.

Lu Shaohua knew that if he didn't speed up, they would be completely dead and would be hit one by one.

They moved and looked for shops for cover. The pistols sprayed bullets like fire snakes. Bullets shot into the guns from time to time. Li Shangkui was shot, Li Zhijie's arm was also shot, and the second of the three cells, Tang Zhongsen, was also shot in the left leg. He needed the support of the third cell, Tang Xiaomiao, to walk. However, they did not lose heart, nor did they show any painful expression. They continued to protect Lu Shaohua and the others and moved forward.

Five minutes is a short time, but at this fateful moment, five minutes seemed very long. Lu Shaohua and his group moved nearly twenty meters and found a shop to take cover. Those who needed to change magazines did so without Lu Shaohua's instructions.

Breathing heavily, Lu Shaohua glanced around, his brain couldn't be calmer, he was getting closer and closer to the enemy's position, the firepower was getting more intense, and the density was getting higher. If he went out again, no matter how fast he moved, it would be useless and he would definitely lose his life.

After taking a look at the injuries of several people, Lu Shaohua had to rethink whether he should change his strategy.

"We can't go on like this. If we charge again, we'll all die here." Lu Shaohua said in a deep voice, and then asked Li Zhijie, "How far is the parking lot from here?"

"It's not very far, but it's not close either. If we travel at full speed, it will probably take about ten minutes." Li Zhijie seemed to have known that Lu Shaohua would ask this question and had an answer already. He answered almost as soon as Lu Shaohua finished speaking.

"Ten minutes?" Lu Shaohua secretly groaned. Only half of the time had passed. Looking at the situation, there were many enemies and it would definitely be difficult to rescue them. If he delayed any longer, he didn't know when they would be able to reunite.

"It's too late." Lu Shaohua took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and then opened them again. His eyes seemed to kill people. He swept coldly across everyone's faces and said, "The injured ones stay, and the uninjured ones act alone and find a way to open a gap."

At this moment, Lu Shaohua completely regarded this place as a battlefield. He spoke using battlefield terminology and began to shift his strategy.

"This won't work. If the enemy rushes over, none of you will survive." Yang Yang was protected in the middle and was not injured. When he heard Lu Shaohua's words, he immediately stood up to object.

"We don't have time." Lu Shaohua's tone was filled with despair, and then he added, "We can only gamble that the enemy won't rush over, and you can go around behind the enemy and act."

As soon as he entered the shop, Lu Shaohua took a look at the environment and found that this shop was connected to the one next door. Lu Shaohua and his team hid in this shop. Perhaps the enemy did not know that they were connected. So as long as Lu Shaohua and his team attracted the enemy's firepower in this shop, and the others went around to the other shop, it was still possible for them to find a way to get out.

“But but”

Yang Yang wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Lu Shaohua. "No buts, act now, Yang Yang, put down Big Brother too, and go around. We will attract firepower here."

This time, Lu Shaohua spoke in a completely commanding tone, and his voice became firm, leaving no room for refusal.

Yang Yang glanced at Lu Shaohua, knowing that he had made up his mind, gritted his teeth, gently put Chen Guobang down, then took the Desert Eagle handed to him by Li Wusheng, and said coldly, "Let's go."

Yang Yang and his men were once special forces soldiers. For special forces soldiers, observing the environment is a compulsory course. When they came in, they also found that the two stores were connected, so, without Lu Shaohua to show them the way, they took the few uninjured people and went around.

The uninjured left, and the ones left behind were all injured. At this time, Lu Shaohua's voice rang out again. "Fire a few shots occasionally to let the enemy know we are here."

Attracting the enemy's firepower was a strategy that Lu Shaohua had decided after a long period of contemplation. The purpose was to cover Yang Yang and his men so that they could get out without being discovered by the enemy. Another way was to make the enemy think that they were hiding here and not advance so quickly.

Two minutes passed quickly. Lu Shaohua leaned against the wall, closed his eyes and listened to the gunshots. His brain was working at high speed and he was praying for himself, hoping to survive this disaster today.

Lu Shaohua didn't want to die, and he was afraid of death, but now it had come to this point. No matter how scared or unwilling he was, it was of no use. His only hope was that the rescuers outside could come quickly and that Yang Yang and the others could go around and open a hole for them so that they could escape.

Three minutes passed quickly. The sound of gunfire was still heard, but it had weakened a lot. The enemy seemed to have discovered something was wrong. The sound of military shoes and footsteps on the ground could be clearly heard, and they were still approaching.

At this moment, Li Zhijie's voice rang out. "No more bullets."

"I'm out of bullets, too."

"I have one more."

Desperate. When Lu Shaohua heard that he had no bullets left, he was really a little desperate, but what could he do? When the god of death was about to come, even if Lu Shaohua was reborn, it would be of no use. He could not escape the hands of the god of death.

Lu Shaohua could not feel any other emotions except unwillingness. He said with some self-mockery. "Just wait."

After saying this, Lu Shaohua closed his eyes again, as if he had accepted his fate. He no longer begged the heavens to open their eyes and have mercy on him.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the footsteps gradually approached. Lu Shaohua could already hear the sound of each step on the ground. The gunshots continued, the "bang, bang" sound, beating on Lu Shaohua's heart.

A deep feeling of unwillingness filled his entire heart, and a huge regret filled his entire brain. Lu Shaohua regretted coming to this hellhole of Africa. But at this moment, regret was no use. Time could not be reversed, and there was no regret medicine to buy.

Four minutes later, from the sound of footsteps, Lu Shaohua could judge that the enemy was already three meters away, as if they were groping tentatively, and did not speed up their advance. With his clever brain, Lu Shaohua could imagine what the scene was like outside. He pointed his gun at the door of the store, carefully guarding against a counterattack from Lu Shaohua and his group, and groping forward.

Tick-tick, the second hand of the watch on my hand ticked, time passed, and thirty seconds went by in a flash.

At this time, Lu Shaohua had already given up and was in despair. The last glimmer of hope in his heart was extinguished by the footsteps. He knew very well that what was waiting for him next would be a golden bullet, which would send him to meet the god of death.

There was no emotion at all. On the contrary, there was a faint smile on Lu Shaohua's face, as if he had seen through the true meaning of fate. Wealth, power, influence, nothing mattered anymore, just like passing clouds and smoke.

Everything that happened since his rebirth flashed through Lu Shaohua's mind one by one. He used one million US dollars to participate in the Black Monday and registered Phoenix Financial Company. He then used 89 billion US dollars to participate in the Japanese stock market crash. He earned enough capital to build the Phoenix Group, one of the top companies in Hong Kong. His net worth exceeded billion US dollars and he was in great glory.

"If there is another life, will I still do this?" This was the oath Lu Shaohua made to himself. He did not regret establishing the Phoenix Group and building the economic empire in his mind.

When a man is about to die, his words must be good. Lu Shaohua is not dead yet, but he is close to death. His last thought confirms everything he has done over the years.
