Zhang Xiaoqiang's heart was about to explode. The Great Blackbird was too cunning and too fierce. Even after losing its only leg, it did not retreat. Instead of coming out from the back of the building as Zhang Xiaoqiang had expected, it climbed to the top of the boat, and then suddenly dived down. In the blink of an eye, it charged into the gap, and then flew back into the river, flying close to the back of the boat.
This time, Zhang Xiao Qiang focused all his attention on the structure of the ship. He swore in his heart that this was the last time he would be careless. He had to grab hold of the opportunity. Just as Zhang Xiao Qiang was using all his energy to stay alert, Zhao Deyi's voice came from the walkie-talkie, "Attention No. 1, attention No. 1, unidentified armed forces are approaching your ship, unidentified armed forces are approaching your ship, suspected to be a suicide attack, suspected to be a suicide attack, alert, alert …"
Before Zhao Deyi could finish, Zhang Xiao Qiang was shocked, he thought of the person on the small boat carrying the 40 rockets, the Big Black Bird, Jiang Shui, and the unknown armed forces had gathered together, and had joined forces to launch an attack on the ferry that was carrying hundreds of soldiers and 2,000 Lu Dun soldiers.
Zhang Xiaoqiang wanted Lu Dun 2000 to clean up the boat, but then he saw that the angle of Lu Dun's 2,730 cannon was blocked by the side of the boat. In a moment of desperation, Zhang Xiaoqiang dismantled the heavy machine gun and jumped onto the roof of a military vehicle parked not far away, looking out at the river.
Two small boats were flanking the speedboat in the middle of the river. The armored heavy machine guns on the small boats kept firing at the speedboat. Both speedboats were damaged. Many of the lights and decorations on the bow were shattered by the bullets. The walls of the steering cabin were full of big and small bullet holes. The white hull of the boat looked like a honeycomb.
Bright red blood flowed along the side of the boat, leaving countless trails of blood on the front deck. Two soldiers were lying in a pool of their own blood, and the splashing blood even stained the walls with plum blossoms.
It was unknown what kind of engine was installed on the approaching small boat. The small bow of the boat skimmed over the surface of the water and approached the slow ferry as if it was flying. White waves formed long trails at the stern of the boat. Circles of waves separated from the bottom of the boat and surged into the distance on the surface of the river.
The small boat did not fare any better after being attacked by the two speedboats. It was also riddled with bullet holes, and blood was also splashed all over the boat. A corpse's lower body was stuck on the guardrail of the boat, and the upper body was dragged in the water, bobbing up and down as the boat moved.
There was only one person on the front deck, a man who was half-kneeling on the deck with a rocket on his shoulder. The man was aiming at the ferry through the simple sight of the rocket.
For a moment, Zhang Xiaoqiang could not care less about the Great Blackbird. He knelt on one knee on the roof of the car, raised the heavy type 89 heavy machine gun, and aimed at the man on the small boat. As soon as he aimed, he pulled the trigger. In his dynamic vision, the flying bullet turned into a sesame seed size dot a hundred meters away in the blink of an eye, and the small boat suddenly drew an arc on the surface of the river, heading towards the side of the ferry. The bullet grazed the man's scalp and left a bowl-sized hole behind him.
Zhang Xiaoqiang immediately shifted the muzzle and continued to shoot. At this moment, Meow suddenly shouted, "Uncle, be careful …"
A strong gust of wind came down from above, and Zhang Xiaoqiang was almost pressed onto the roof of the car, unable to move. In the blink of an eye, Zhang Xiaoqiang was lying on the roof of the car. Seeing the Great Blackbird charging at him from the top of the boat, Zhang Xiaoqiang opened fire with the heavy machine gun in his hand. A flurry of bullets shot at the Great Blackbird's abdomen, and countless bullets hit the rotting wounds, causing black blood to appear.
The Great Blackbird wailed, and its entire body spun in an instant, narrowly passing over Zhang Xiaoqiang's head. Zhang Xiaoqiang lay on the roof of the car, and the heavy machine gun in his hand chased after the Great Blackbird and pulled the trigger. The Great Blackbird weaved through the bullets for a few seconds, and then suddenly sank, landing in the blind spot of Zhang Xiaoqiang's muzzle.
Lying on the roof, Zhang Xiaoqiang could not control the recoil of the machine gun, and most of the bullets missed. There were not many bullets that could hit the Great Blackbird's wound, but it was enough to make the Great Blackbird suffer once again.
With a carp flip, Zhang Xiaoqiang jumped up. Just as he turned around, he heard a lot of people screaming on the deck of the boat. Then, Zhang Xiaoqiang saw a rocket with white eyes flying towards the side of the boat.
Without thinking, he pulled the trigger again, and a few more bullets flew out. It was still the recoil, and he was hugging the heavy machine gun in his arms. Even with his dynamic vision, the irregular movement of the muzzle caused him to lose his aim. Zhang Xiaoqiang roared, and his body charged forward. His body fell forward, and the butt of the gun was pressed against his shoulder, and the muzzle was in a straight line with his body. Bullets continuously shot out, and the strong recoil caused him to no longer fall forward, but backward. That short moment of balance allowed the rocket to explode into a fireball in mid-air, and following that, Zhang Xiaoqiang slammed into the windshield of the car.
Zhang Xiaoqiang grabbed onto the windshield wipers and pushed himself up to the roof of the car. He then raised his gun and shot the man who was reloading the rocket on the deck in two. He then emptied all the bullets in one go, and finally, the boat was turned into a fireball. Just as the boat was ignited, a strong gust of wind blew from behind. Zhang Xiaoqiang threw away the empty heavy machine gun, and took out the Beast Horn Spear from his backpack. He turned around and loaded the Beast Horn Spear onto the Great Blackbird's neck.
The Great Blackbird flew up from the side of the boat, far exceeding the expectations of the Lu Dun personnel. On the other hand, Zhang Xiaoqiang saw the Great Blackbird below him, but he did not have time to think. Zhang Xiaoqiang took a huge step forward, and stomped on the edge of the roof. He then jumped up, and stabbed the Beast Horn Spear into the neck of the Great Blackbird.
The Great Blackbird raised its head abruptly, and its sharp beak bit towards Zhang Xiaoqiang. Zhang Xiaoqiang shouted again, and turned the spear, stabbing into the Great Blackbird's eye.
The Great Blackbird did not even have the time to cry out, and it twitched in pain. It subconsciously moved its beak away, and Zhang Xiaoqiang landed on the Great Blackbird's body. Just as he landed, before Zhang Xiaoqiang could react, he saw the deck of the boat rising rapidly. At the same time, an invisible figure rushed up the wall, and leaped to Zhang Xiaoqiang's side. With a shout, a smaller Beast Horn Spear stabbed deep into the back of the Great Blackbird.
Following that, the Great Blackbird rose rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it had crossed a hundred meters. Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at the narrowing river, and grabbed Meow in his arms. He then ran to the neck of the Great Blackbird, and took out a belt to secure himself and Meow together. Right now, he was not thinking about how to kill the Great Blackbird, but how to survive. After completing this task in the shortest time possible, Zhang Xiaoqiang took out the walkie-talkie …
"Everyone's here, everyone's here. I hereby appoint Huang Quan as the team captain, I hereby appoint Huang Quan as the team captain. Huang Quan, take good care of Yang Ke-er, and wait for my return …"
Below, Huang Quan, Zhao Deyi, Zhang Huai'an, Yang Ke-er, and Mu Peipei all had their mouths wide open as they watched the Great Blackbird fly higher and higher. Zhang Xiaoqiang's orders rang out from all their walkie-talkies. Before they could say a word, the Great Blackbird had already brought Zhang Xiaoqiang to an altitude of three thousand meters. There was only the sound of rustling and the howling of the wind through the walkie-talkies. Then, the Great Blackbird disappeared into the clouds.
The ferry, which had been through so many disasters, slowly approached the dock. The entire ferry had sunk nearly a meter deep. As the lift door was lowered, the people outside were shocked by the situation inside the ferry. All the people and vehicles were soaked in blood. Corpses floated on the surface of the water, and overturned vehicles blocked the passage. There was also a huge gap on the side of the ferry, which was blocked by corpses and the bodies of living people. Naked soldiers were hugging their dead comrades and lying on the gap. There were no railings on either side, and they could only use their toes to hook on the side of the ferry.
Hundreds of soldiers were frantically scooping water out of the gap.
Even when the ferry had reached the shore, they could not feel it. They could only use their helmets to scoop water out of the gap. Even when Zhang Huai'an and his men used wooden planks and blankets to block the gap, and even when Wang Le and his men used a water pump to pump the water out of the deck, they could not feel it. They only used their helmets to scoop water out of the river. No matter whose order it was, they did not stop. Even when all the water had been pumped out, revealing the wet deck, they still used their helmets to scoop water out of the deck. They continued to use their helmets to scoop water until they were so tired that they fell on the deck. The fierce-looking soldier had already been swept into the Yangtze River when he was plugging the gap …
Many people had to be carried off the boat, including Yang Ke-er. She was crying so hard that her whole body felt soft. This was the first time she had truly left Zhang Xiaoqiang, the most important man to her.
Huang Quan stood on the dock with a gloomy face, looking at the sky where Zhang Xiaoqiang had left. Behind him, Zhang Huai'an was squatting on the ground, thinking about something. Huang Tingwei, on the other hand, did not look too sad or anything else. He stood behind Huang Quan, thinking about his future plans and arrangements. Since Zhang Xiaoqiang had appointed Huang Quan, then he would resolutely support Huang Quan.
Yuan Yi had always been by Yang Ke 'er's side to take care of her, and beside her was Shang Guan. Although their relationship in private was not good, they had no choice but to stick together now, because they were Zhang Xiao Qiang's women.
Mu Peipei seemed to be in a daze. Not long after she was pregnant with the child, the child's father ran away. Mu Peipei had no feelings for Zhang Xiaoqiang, but when she thought that the child would be born without a father, she felt strange. Wang Xing and Zhao Xiaobo had been accompanying Mu Peipei, looking at the surrounding crowd coldly.
Xu Mengzhu was about to go crazy. Sometimes she cried, and sometimes she laughed. Sometimes she pointed at the sky and cursed. After cursing for a long time, she suddenly laughed. In the end, she held her head and sat aside like a dead person. No matter who called her, she would not answer.
There were some changes in the other forces. Wen Wen stood far away, looking at the river and thinking about something.
Qiao Na looked at Mu Peipei and her female troops with an unfriendly gaze. Behind her, hundreds of soldiers stood silently. In the middle of them, there were two stretchers, and two young men were lying on them, looking at the sky. No one knew what they were thinking.
The armed police officer, Liu Feng, was a little anxious. He paced back and forth, whispering to Lei Ze City from time to time. However, Lei Ze City kept shaking his head. Later, he ran to Feng Kun, and only stopped when Feng Kun pointed a gun at his head.
The scene was very chaotic. Tens of thousands of survivors and thousands of soldiers were at a loss when Zhang Xiaoqiang disappeared. It was not until the evening when dinner was prepared that the situation calmed down. All the people in charge gathered for a meeting.
