130: The man behind the scenes

In that instant, everyone could only do their best, followed by a loud crash as the jeep hit one of the black cars and, relying on its powerful engine, pushed it forward.

The windows of all three cars were open, and a gunfight immediately erupted. Xu Ning felt like his head was going to be shaken off, and before he could recover, dense gunfire came from the front.

Kadeyafu beside him was trembling with fear. Xu Ning quickly pressed his head down to prevent him from being hit by stray bullets.

The gunfire quickly stopped, and silence returned to the street. Before Xu Ning could lift his head to check the situation, Xie Biao's weak voice came from the front: "Bo-Boss..."

Xu Ning quickly leaned his head forward and saw that Xie Biao's left shoulder was soaked with blood.

"Are you guys alright?"

Xie Biao took a breath and said, "I'm fine, just got shot in the shoulder. San Pao, where's San Pao?"

Only then did the two realize that San Pao was slumped over the steering wheel, motionless.

The windows of the two black cars had been shattered by Xie Biao, and the people inside had fallen, clearly having been taken down by Xie Biao and San Pao's gunfire.

Xu Ning didn't dare to delay, quickly got out of the car, and pulled San Pao down from the driver's seat.

Only then did he see that San Pao's abdomen was bleeding; a stray bullet had penetrated the car door and hit his abdomen.

Disregarding his expensive suit, Xu Ning immediately took it off to press down on San Pao's wound, then moved him to the back seat.

Kadeyafu in the back seat was holding his head, trembling all over, completely unable to help.

Xu Ning grabbed him by the collar, lifted him up, and slapped him hard twice.

"Wake up, snap out of it!"

Seeing Kadeyafu's eyes gradually clear up, Xu Ning immediately ordered:

"Help me press down on his wound, I need to drive!"

Kadeyafu stammered, "Bu-But..."

Xu Ning glared at him, "Stop talking nonsense!"

Kadeyafu was so scared he immediately complied.

Fortunately, the car could still start. After a few attempts, Xu Ning finally got it running.

Xie Biao was injured, and San Pao was in critical condition. Unsure if the enemy had follow-up actions planned, he had to get everyone out of here as quickly as possible.

The car engine roared like a warhorse neighing. Xu Ning drove the jeep, crashing through the damaged vehicles ahead, speeding through the ruins, and quickly disappeared at the end of the road.

They sped all the way and finally arrived at the town of Polavtsi.

This place was less than a ten-minute drive from the Malixuefu Factory. Since most workers were locals, the factory would soon be informed of the situation here.

After entering the town, Xu Ning relaxed slightly. It was clear the enemy had only planned one attack, but it had been dangerous enough.

Thinking of this, Xu Ning still felt lingering fear.

They quickly found a hospital and sent San Pao and Xie Biao inside.

Xu Ning decided to stay at the hospital and let Kadeyafu go back to inform the other members of the Hunter Vulture Squad.

Sitting on the bench outside the operating room, Xu Ning gazed out the window, secretly vowing that he would make the person behind this pay the price!

No matter who he was!

The other three members of the Hunter Vulture Squad quickly assembled. Xu Ning assigned two tasks, and the three immediately took action after receiving their orders.

As Dawn approached, Big Guy and Teacher returned to the hospital.

Xu Ning was still waiting outside the operating room, seemingly calm as usual. However, if one looked closely, they would find his eyes bloodshot, clearly having been up all night. He stood silently, his expression grim.

Teacher and Big Guy exchanged glances and quickly approached.

"Boss, we've brought back the damaged vehicles and the people inside."

"Okay."

Xu Ning nodded slightly, "Did anyone survive?"

Teacher replied, "There are two injured, they've lost consciousness."

Xu Ning's expression suddenly turned cold, "No matter what, they must reveal the mastermind!"

The two exchanged glances and quickly agreed. They had never seen Xu Ning so angry and even felt a strong surge of fury.

Clearly, Xu Ning was serious this time. The two didn't dare to delay and hurried away to prepare to interrogate the two captives.

After leaving, the two sighed, the intensity of the battle was beyond imagination.

It turned out that the task Xu Ning had given Teacher and Big Guy was to search along the route and bring back all the damaged vehicles along with the personnel.

The two lived up to expectations and quickly found the gunfight scene, but after careful inspection, they were even more shocked.

If it hadn't been for Boss Xie Biao and San Pao accompanying him, this trip would have been extremely dangerous.

It should be known that car chases and gunfights inside vehicles are extremely demanding on driving skills and shooting accuracy. Moreover, they were not in a bulletproof car, and to survive under passive circumstances was truly rare.

An open gunfight was a gamble of life and death; any stray bullet could rewrite the outcome.

...

At this moment, outside the operating room.

The operating light, marked with Russian text, suddenly went out, and a doctor in a white coat walked out.

Xu Ning hurried forward to ask, "Doctor, how are they?"

The doctor looked tired, glanced at Xu Ning, and said:

Xie Biao was out of danger, but regarding Wang Sanliang, also known by everyone as "San Pao," the doctor could only shake his head with deep regret and say, "I'm sorry, we did our best."

The reason San Pao had this name was that he could always accurately destroy targets within three shots. Hearing the doctor's words, Xu Ning froze, asking in disbelief, "Didn't that bullet only hit his abdomen? Why..."

The doctor explained, "Actually, he was hit by three bullets in the abdomen. The bullets weren't removed, causing extremely severe internal injuries and massive blood loss. By the time we received him, it was already too late."

Xu Ning didn't ask further. After thanking the doctor, he took the three bullets removed from San Pao's body and his ID tag. Although San Pao hadn't been with him for long, his abilities and contributions had left a deep impression on Xu Ning.

San Pao was not only skilled in shooting but also possessed excellent coordination and first-class driving skills, making him an irreplaceable driver in the team. Looking at the transparent bag containing the bullets in his hand, Xu Ning fell into deep thought.

After a long while, he carefully put the bullets into his pocket. After giving a few instructions to the nurse, he left the hospital. The sky was overcast, and a cold wind blew, making Xu Ning feel a chill.

Kadeyafu had already returned to the factory, but he had left a damaged military jeep. Xu Ning found the car key still in the ignition, so he got into the driver's seat and drove back to the Malixuefu Factory.

While driving, he gripped the steering wheel tightly, realizing how important it was to have a sturdy and reliable armored vehicle. After this perilous battle, he deeply understood that in open terrain, his team could completely defeat the enemy without casualties, but with vehicle limitations, their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.

If the vehicle was equipped with heavy weapons, the situation would be different. Therefore, Xu Ning realized the urgent need for a combat vehicle that could protect his team members and had counter-attack capabilities. Thus, he started the simulator and began planning how to modify the vehicle:
