Reborn 1980 Married to the toughest guy in the army

Chapter 2604

Jiang Wan's words were met with applause from the crowd.

Everyone couldn't help but applaud, showering Jiang Wan with praise.

Jiang Wan, however, did not care at all.

She reiterated her stance: if you don't have to go down, then don't go down.

He paused for a moment, then added, "Let professionals do professional things."

Gao Xiang listened this time.

He nodded and said, "Don't worry."

"I swear to you with my military career, I will not go down this time."

"Even if we go down, we will only do so after experts have confirmed that the air below is non-toxic."

His promise finally made Jiang Wan nod in satisfaction.

Then she got into a car that the military had cleared out for her, and she and Qiao Liancheng left together.

Unbeknownst to them, as they were leaving, on a nearby hill, someone was carrying a rocket launcher and had already aimed it at the car that Jiang Wan and Qiao Liancheng had driven away.

And he pressed the launch button on the rocket launcher.

The rocket artillery at this time is a new type of weapon that the United States has just developed.

It shed its original clunky design and became a simple bucket with a small launching device on top.

It's very powerful; you can just carry it on someone's shoulders.

However, the recoil is very strong; if an average person uses this thing, half of their shoulder will be ruined.

The key issue is that after a rocket launcher is fired, the barrel gets very hot, and that heat can burn people.

Therefore, those who can use this thing are not ordinary people; they all need to undergo specialized training.

They launched one rocket earlier, which shot down a helicopter in the sky. After launching it, they grabbed the rocket launcher and hid.

Now that the rocket launcher's barrel had finally cooled down, it was ready to fire the second rocket, so he aimed it at the vehicle.

The man carrying the rocket launcher is named Joseph. He is a former mercenary, and someone paid him a large sum of money to bring the latest weapons to help.

Before he arrived, someone showed him a list and photos, which included Jiang Wan and Qiao Liancheng.

Of the orders he received, his rocket launchers prioritized targeting these individuals.

Of course, besides Jiang Wan and Qiao Liancheng, there were other people on that list, such as Yuan Xiaohua.

But when he ran over, he only saw Jiang Wan and Qiao Liancheng get into a car.

As the car was about to leave, he ran to a small hill and aimed the rocket launcher at the vehicle.

If the car explodes, these two people will definitely die.

He essentially killed two people at once, and he heard that the bounty on the woman among them had reached tens of millions of US dollars.

The thought of making millions of dollars by killing her thrilled him.

So he pressed the fire button without hesitation, but to his surprise, just as he pressed the fire button, a powerful force slammed into him from the side.

His cannon changed direction and hit the mountainside next to him.

With a loud bang, the shell struck the mountainside and exploded.

The moment a rocket is fired, whether it is day or night, a red flame will shoot out, which is a drawback of this immature version of rocket artillery.

The moment he pulled the trigger, someone on Gao Xiang's side had already noticed something was wrong.

Especially when they saw a flame spewing out, they knew there was an ambush there.

Without even thinking, Gao Xiang drew his pistol from his waist, aimed it in that direction, and fired.

When the gunshot rang out, Joseph knew he had been exposed.

After firing the first shot, he turned and ran, but after only a couple of steps, he stumbled and fell to the ground with a thud.

The next moment, a cold light flashed.

He saw that his body seemed to still be lying there.

But then the world spun around him, leaving him dazed. By the time he realized what was happening, he was already dead.

The person who killed him was Ono, and Ono acted very quickly.

Jiang Wan and Qiao Liancheng got into the car. Xiao Ye should have followed, but before getting in, Jiang Wan secretly told Xiao Ye:

"You stay and protect my father."

"Our journey back is fine, but staying here would be very dangerous."

Ono agreed.

Just as Jiang Wan and Qiao Liancheng got into the car, Ono keenly sensed a crisis lurking around them.

After her gaze swept around, she noticed the grass moving not far away.

So she quietly sat down, while the man jogged up the small hill, intending to ambush the car from above.

However, it also pointed Ono in the right direction. Ono followed and saw him about to press the launch button.

So he kicked him, knocking him to the ground, which also saved Jiang Wan and Qiao Liancheng.

At this moment, Jiang Wan and Qiao Liancheng noticed something amiss behind them in the car.

Looking in the rearview mirror, I saw the mountain wall in the distance suddenly burst open.

The two of them turned to look at each other at the same time.

Jiang Wan asked suspiciously, "Why do I have a feeling that it was coming for us?"

Qiao Liancheng said, "But we were on this side of the road. That thing hit the mountainside directly."

"How blind must this person be to stray so far from the truth?"

Jiang Wan thought it made sense, so she sat back down in her seat.

However, he still said to Qiao Liancheng with some concern, "Don't drive in a straight line. What if he wants to test whether the shells work and then fires at us next?"

Qiao Liancheng thought it made sense and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me."

So, for the rest of the journey, Qiao Liancheng didn't walk in a straight line; he kept walking in circles.

Fortunately, there were no more ambushes along the way.

The main reason was that those people's attention was on the base, thinking about how to take it back, which allowed Qiao Liancheng and Jiang Wan to escape smoothly.

Gao Xiang had promised Jiang Wan he wouldn't go down there casually, and Jiang Wan's words had also reminded him.

Although I am not very familiar with the following situation.

With the intention of not implicating innocent people, Gao Xiang actually found experts in biology and poison gas.

They found several experts who were fully armed, wearing biohazard suits, gas masks, and oxygen tanks, and sent them down.

Then some air was collected below.

When it was brought back for testing, the results shocked everyone.

The area below the entrance has a very faint amount of toxic gas; it's not that there is none, but rather that it's very faint.

It won't kill you immediately.

But as you turn the corner of that long corridor, the toxic gas in the small halls next to it gradually becomes denser.

By the time they bypassed the small halls and reached the main hall, the poison gas had reached a level that could kill instantly.

In other words, all the groups of people who went down earlier died here.

Of the 100 or so people who came later, some were kept by Yuan Xiaohua, while most of those who went down were also poisoned to death by the gas.

When the experts went in, they found more than 200 fresh corpses on the ground that had died within the last three days.
