The Great Bird swooped down from the sky, and the distance between the sky and the ground was infinitely shortened. The ant-like crowd below did not scatter like before, but instead gathered together and took the initiative to surround the Great Bird. The Great Bird was dazzled by the dense crowd, and it did not know which one to catch. As the crowd swayed, the positions of the predetermined targets changed one by one, making it impossible for the Great Bird to accurately locate them.
The inability to accurately locate the target made the Great Bird even angrier. Its target was no longer a single person, but a densely packed crowd below it. It wanted to use its body to ram and crush those little bugs under its body. The Great Bird swooped down from the sky, and the crowd below it fought back bravely. After countless flashes of light, more and more rifles were emptied, and more and more rifles were equipped with bayonets, held in their hands, and pointed directly at the Great Bird.
At this moment, no one felt fear, and no one took the medicine and ran away. Watching the Great Bird crash into them, they closed their eyes, and some opened their eyes angrily, waiting for the final moment.
"Roar …" An angry and unyielding roar sounded from the crowd, and then the roars came one after another, forming a line. They were going to use their last moments to vent their inner passion, and that was their last dignity as humans.
The Great Blackbird's eyes were cold, and it did not seem to be affected by the loud roars of the crowd below it. It had already formed a life-and-death feud with the humans, and as long as it saw them, it would destroy them all.
The space between the Great Blackbird and the crowd disappeared in a flash, and the Great Blackbird swooped down on the crowd, its head pointing straight at the center of the crowd, facing the rain of bullets from the opposite side. The collision was about to begin.
Zhang Xiaoqiang used all his strength to fiddle with the heavy machine gun in his hands, and beside him, the temporary machine gunner was also sweating profusely. When the Great Blackbird swooped down, Zhang Xiaoqiang was full of confidence that he could blow up the Great Bird's head, but he did not know that there was a problem with the machine gun. It could only fire, but it could not fire continuously. In other words, the heavy machine gun in his hands could only fire in bursts.
Zhang Xiaoqiang only knew how to shoot and did not know how to maintain it. Now that the machine gun was in his hands, he did not know what the problem was. The temporary assistant machine gunner beside him was also dumbfounded by the heavy machine gun in Zhang Xiaoqiang's hands. He could close his eyes to remove the obstacles of the rifle, but he could not do anything about the heavy machine gun.
Seeing that the bird was about to collide with the crowd, Zhang Xiaoqiang cursed under his breath and kicked the assistant machine gunner into the car. He turned around and aimed the muzzle at the bird's head and pulled the trigger.
The first bullet hit the bird's beak, which was originally chipped off by Shanghai Qiaoyun. The gap continued to widen, and the Great Bird tilted its head slightly from the force of the bullet. At the same time, the second bullet hit its skull. The Great Bird's head sank down, and the third bullet pierced through its left eye. Blood spurted out, and the Great Bird let out a sorrowful cry as it flipped in the sky. The Great Bird was like a spinning top, narrowly brushing past the crowd's heads and crashing behind them.
The ground shook, and the Great Bird crashed into an abandoned off-road car. It flopped on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust that obscured Zhang Xiaoqiang's vision. Zhang Xiaoqiang felt regretful. If the heavy machine gun could fire continuously, he could have sent ten bullets into the Great Blackbird's eye at the same time. He believed that ten large-caliber bullets would definitely be able to pierce through the Great Blackbird's skull and kill the Great Blackbird.
Zhang Xiaoqiang was waiting for the dust to settle, or for the Great Blackbird to fly away. At this moment, the crowd shouted, and everyone rushed towards the flying dust. Looking at the ferocious and excited people, Zhang Xiaoqiang cursed them for being stupid. Weren't these people looking for death by rushing up now?
Just before the crowd rushed into the dust, there was an earth-shattering cry, and the flying dust suddenly spread in all directions. Gusts of wind came from where the Great Blackbird was, and the huge wind blew the crowd to the ground, causing them to roll like gourds on the ground.
In the sandstorm, the Great Blackbird's body soared into the sky. As soon as the Great Blackbird's body leaped up, Zhang Xiaoqiang's bullets fell. Unfortunately, these bullets were fast, but the Great Blackbird was even faster. The bullets hit the Great Blackbird's body, but they could only produce blossoms of blood. They couldn't cause any substantial damage to the Great Blackbird.
After the Great Blackbird flew into the sky, it became wary of the heavy machine guns below. It only hovered outside the firing range, and no longer swooped down. Zhang Xiaoqiang confronted it, and they tested each other several times. No one could do anything to the other. Zhang Xiaoqiang saw through the Great Blackbird's fake dive, and the Great Blackbird saw through Zhang Xiaoqiang's bait.
The Great Blackbird's attack temporarily stopped. Liu Zhenghua drove the car back and forth at the tragic scene, letting those who were hiding and pretending to be dead come out to clean up the mess. Then, he called for the surviving armed police to regroup …
Zhang Xiaoqiang had already returned to his own paratrooper vehicle. The paratrooper vehicle was very sturdy, and it didn't have any major problems with the impact. Other than some deformed frames and corners, everything else was in good condition. The engine roared, and when the engine roared, Zhang Xiaoqiang's search team arrived at Zhang Xiaoqiang's side.
As soon as the convoy stopped, Yang Ke-er jumped down from the paratrooper vehicle with the recoilless cannon and jumped into Zhang Xiaoqiang's arms. Zhang Xiaoqiang hugged Yang Ke-er and looked at the soldier with the heavy machine gun in astonishment. He was a little confused, if Yang Ke-er wasn't operating the heavy machine gun, then who was it?
At this time, Liu Zhenghua also arrived at Zhang Xiaoqiang's side. Zhang Xiaoqiang pushed Yang Ke-er out, and looked at Liu Zhenghua with a trace of ridicule. Liu Zhenghua's expression was very complicated, and also very awkward. He didn't know how to face Zhang Xiaoqiang, but the main character today was Zhang Xiaoqiang. As the one who was rescued, he could only brace himself to thank him.
"Thank you so much for today, Brother Zhang … If it wasn't for you, I don't know how many more people would have died … We were completely screwed today, 1500 people …"
Liu Zhenghua's expression was very bleak, and he didn't know where to put his arms. Behind him were the survivors running around, and in front of him was the cold faced Zhang Xiaoqiang. Above his head was the Great Blackbird that was still circling.
"Captain Liu, you're too polite … I've said it before … a close neighbor is better than a distant relative. Captain Liu, why didn't you tell me about such a big operation?
If you had told me earlier, you wouldn't have suffered such a huge loss. 1500 people?
Take a look, are there still 500 people left? "
Zhang Xiaoqiang pointed at the scene filled with flames, and said to Liu Zhenghua without any politeness. He blamed Liu Zhenghua, and also himself. The resistance of the people facing the Great Blackbird had deeply moved him at the last moment. Those people had courage, it was just that they didn't follow a good leader. With courage, with the heart to face death calmly, and with the courage to fight the monster at the last moment, they might have become elites. Countless future elites had disappeared under Liu Zhenghua's impatient temper.
And he was one of the main culprits that caused these elites to die in vain. He didn't want to lament and blame himself, so he could only vent the anger in his heart on the heads of others.
"Reporting … Captain, after counting and searching, we still have 137 people left. Nearly half of them are injured, and 40 of them are seriously injured, including Second Lieutenant Li Quan, who was thrown out of the car by this officer. He has a fractured leg …"
