Mercenary’s War
Chapter 516 - 516 Five hundred and twelve s The Rookie is Unbeatable

516: Five hundred and twelve chapters: The Rookie is Unbeatable 516: Five hundred and twelve chapters: The Rookie is Unbeatable Li Jinfang and Cui Bo initially cheered joyfully, but after shouting just a couple of times, they didn’t hesitate to start running down the tree, or more accurately, climbing down.

“Run!

This way!”

When they were about three or four meters above the ground, Li Jinfang jumped down, and then loudly called out to Gao Yang and Tommy to start legging it, and before running, he didn’t forget to lift the anti-aircraft missile that Gao had placed on the ground.

They couldn’t run along the path the plane might take; they had to move laterally.

After rushing and crawling about twenty meters in the jungle, a whistling sound came from behind them.

They dove to the ground, and after feeling the tremors beneath him and the scorching heat on his back, Gao Yang, whose ears were buzzing from the nearby explosion, instantly recognized the falling objects as rockets.

The power of the rockets was low, and they were fast, so lying down after twenty meters or so meant they were basically out of harm’s way.

“Keep running!”

Gao Yang was already getting up as he shouted hoarsely.

His injuries were a nuisance, affecting his movement, and as he yelled, Cui Bo and the other two had already stood up.

Without his reminder, who would just stand there and wait to be blasted?

Cui Bo grabbed Gao and pulled him along for a few steps.

Once Gao’s pace had picked up, he broke free from Cui Bo’s grasp, and then all four of them hopped and jumped as they sprinted forward.

The rockets carried by the Super Tucano aircraft had little power, and they wouldn’t be harmed from a distance of twenty or so meters, but if the Super Tucano dropped a few more bombs, it would be different.

If they were too close, even if they weren’t blown to bits after lying down, the blast would kill them.

The Super Tucano struggled to carry large bombs.

When targeting small groups of troops in the jungle, they usually carried the 500-pound MK-82 aerial bombs.

When these bombs were dropped, the crater they created could be up to four or five meters in diameter and two or three meters deep.

Just maintaining a distance of a mere twenty meters was far from safe.

The jungle was full of vines, making it tough to run, but after Gao and company had run another thirty meters or so, two huge explosions rang out behind them, much louder than the rocket explosions before.

In the jungle, the further away the explosions were, the more the shockwaves were absorbed by the trees.

Gao Yang didn’t feel the shockwaves at all.

He turned his head to look back, but he couldn’t see the impact site through the trees and vines; he didn’t need to see to know they were far enough from the bombs.

A Super Tucano aircraft could only carry one MK-82 aerial bomb.

Two explosions meant that the two planes in the formation had dropped their bombs, so they likely wouldn’t be bombed anymore.

“Ram, respond, how are you guys doing?”

After hearing Nate’s call, Gao Yang stopped, took a couple of heavy breaths, then said urgently, “Ram responding, Satan Group is fine, no casualties.”

After the others gradually halted, Gao Yang, panting, said, “After all that running, the damn wound started to hurt again, so damn annoying, a real hassle.

Toad, Rabbit, did you two confirm that you shot down the planes?”

Li Jinfang immediately said, “Shot down, or at least hit.

The missile exploded right under the nose of the plane; I saw black smoke coming from it.”

Cui Bo was ecstatic, “The one I shot went straight down.

The missile tore up the wing, and the plane lost stability immediately—I saw it crystal clear.”

Gao Yang nodded, then said into the intercom, “Satan Group reporting, we have downed two Super Tucano aircraft, two shots, two hits, the results have been confirmed, we did bring down two aircraft.”

“Wow, first on the scoreboard, you guys are lucky, you stumbled onto them, rookies, congratulations to you.”

Gao Yang was quite displeased as he replied, “What do you mean lucky?

Let me tell you, this is skill, skill, you understand?”

Nate didn’t pay attention to Gao Yang’s bluster.

As soon as Gao Yang stopped speaking, Nate immediately shouted over the intercom, “You all heard that, the rookies from Satan downed two aircraft, with single-shot hits at that.

Guys, I don’t want to lose to a bunch of rookies.

Get fired up, we can’t let those rookies look down on us.”

Of course, Li Jinfang and Cui Bo could also hear Nate’s words, and upon hearing them, they laughed heartily.

Cui Bo rubbed his hands, raised his eyebrows, and with a look of pride said, “They say a shell won’t hit the same crater twice, obviously the same goes for aerial bombs.

Hey, what do you say we go back to the same spot and give it another shot?”

Gao shook his head and said, “No, we have to coordinate with the overall situation.

I’ll ask Nate to see if he has any plans.”

Just as he was about to speak to Nate, Gao heard someone say solemnly through his headset, “Report, Team Three has downed one Super Tucano aircraft.”

“Good job, change your firing position.

How many missiles did you use?”

“Two.”

“Hmm, well done.

Rookie’s luck tends to be good, taking down an aircraft with two SA-7 missiles is already quite impressive.

Everyone, keep it up.

I think those rookies from Satan will soon realize just how lucky they have been.

Before they realize it’s just good luck, bring me down a few more planes.”

Someone was hogging the channel, so Gao didn’t rush to speak.

Instead, he listened and waited for Nate to finish his somewhat resentful speech.

Then Gao slowly said, “Guys, good job bringing down an aircraft with two outdated missiles.

Keep it up, maybe you too can achieve a single-shot downing.

I believe in you.

Also, commander, does Satan Group need to return to our previous combat position for further action?”

“Satan Group can return to the original combat position.

I wish you still have enough good luck.”

Gao waved his hand and said, “Let’s go back.

We have two more missiles.

Let’s take down two more planes, and show the people from Angel who the real rookies are.”

The achievements of Li Jinfang and Cui Bo broke the deadlock on the battlefield.

After two aircraft were continuously shot down, a Super Tucano that was attacking made a mistake, and the people from Angel seized the opportunity to take it down with two missiles.

When the losses reached three aircraft, it became an unbearable loss for the Colombian Air Force.

Additionally, the intensity of the ground counterattack also became unbearable for the air force commanders.

After returning to their previous combat position, looking at the two large craters not far from the big tree where Li Jinfang and his team launched their missiles, Gao was astounded.

The explosion had also blasted open the leaves in the sky, leaving several huge gaps above Gao and his team’s heads.

However, they waited a long time without seeing any planes fly over.

After waiting a few minutes, Gao received a call from Uriyangko, and Uri’s first words were, “The Air Force has already retreated, and the Army has also issued a retreat order.

Guys, you’ve won the first round hands down.” (To be continued.
