Chapter 126 Li Wei is happy again
"Okay, I know! You nagging guy."
Li Wei casually replied with that, and then closed the door to the weapons storage room.
Somewhat embarrassingly, the door was kicked down by Li Wei and couldn't be closed properly.
However, a walkie-talkie was soon handed over from inside.
"Boss, I used to be a Marine too."
The guy from the 10th Regiment spoke in a rather ingratiating manner.
Li Wei glanced at the walkie-talkie, took it, and tucked it into his collar.
"Thanks."
After thanking him, Li Wei turned and left.
As they ran, a distress call quickly came through the walkie-talkie.
"This is the mid-deck B section corridor! I'm pinned down behind the jetty! Requesting backup! Requesting backup!"
Li Wei kept walking and began answering the call button on the walkie-talkie.
"Received. Support will arrive in three minutes."
"Report on the number of our side and the enemy's personnel, weapon configuration, and personnel deployment."
The person on the other end immediately recognized Li Wei's voice.
"The big boss? I..."
Li Wei interrupted him directly.
"Two minutes and thirty seconds left, stop talking nonsense."
The other party swallowed back what they were about to say and began to report the situation directly.
"One of our men is pinned down in the north corridor with only a Glock 19 and the last full magazine."
"There are three enemy soldiers occupying the south side of the corridor. They have two AK-47s and one AR-15. Their ammunition reserves are unclear, but they are fighting very fiercely."
Li Wei silently calculated for a few seconds and came to a conclusion... three seconds.
"If the enemy doesn't close in and suppress us, we'll stay put and wait for reinforcements. Otherwise, we'll use the corridor's features to circle around them, fighting as we retreat, and buy time."
A response came immediately from the walkie-talkie.
"clear!"
After a brief exchange of fire, the communication ended.
They retaliated... Does that mean the enemy has already begun to close in and suppress them?
It seems the other party isn't completely ignorant.
Li Wei immediately quickened his pace.
The journey, which normally takes two and a half minutes, was completed in just over one minute and forty seconds.
However, after clearly hearing the intense gunfire, Li Wei did not immediately rush out to provide support. Instead, he found a ventilation opening in the wall and crawled inside.
Under the cover of gunfire, Levi crawled forward swiftly, reaching the top of the three sailors' heads.
However, this position is somewhat awkward.
If Li Wei had jumped down directly, he would have landed right in the middle of the three people.
However, Li Wei, who has extensive practical experience, has his own methods.
"Bang!"
Li Wei kicked off the protective netting on the ventilation vent.
"Bang!"
The protective netting landed, stirring up a fine cloud of dust. The three sailors instinctively turned their guns and aimed at the spot where the sound came from.
The next moment, Li Wei hooked his legs around the edge of the pipe and hung upside down, dangling his upper body.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
In three seconds, the shotgun blasted the three sailors into a bloody mess.
After taking down three people, Li Wei immediately pulled his legs back and landed with a somersault.
"Can you still move independently?"
Without uttering a single wasted word, Li Wei went straight to inquire about the other party's situation.
"It's just an injured arm!"
The other party hadn't even shown up yet, but the answer had already appeared.
"Move to the weapons storage area!"
Li Wei gave the order directly.
At that moment, he happened to see the floor plan of the "employee area".
So he quickly memorized the route to the monitoring room and began to run.
The guests in the lobby were being held hostage. To get things done, the hostages had to be released first.
The monitoring room provides the best direct view of the situation inside the lobby.
Li Wei felt like he was back to his "old profession".
However, halfway there, he heard another cry for help.
"This is Sean Huntley. We have four people on our side, armed with automatic weapons, but we have two hostages. The hostages are in poor condition and unable to move. The firefight is taking place in service room 208 in the north corridor of the casino lobby."
"The enemy has a reinforced squad of twelve men, probably a 'breach team,' and they are carrying C4 explosives."
"Requesting backup!"
On the way to the monitoring room, it is necessary to...
"Support will arrive within two minutes. Don't conserve ammunition. Hold the line."
Sean heard Levi's voice and responded immediately.
"Understood, boss! Two minutes!"
"Hit hard! Suppress them from behind!"
As the echoes of gunfire lingered, Li Wei realized that this "Sean Huntley" wasn't so useless after all.
He chose the seemingly crazy but actually most effective "holding out tactic"—counter-attack.
Li Wei even felt that if he were in that position, he would make the same choice.
Whether it can be executed effectively depends on the abilities of Sean and his security personnel.
If not done well, this tactical choice is tantamount to suicide.
Hopefully, he's not just some idiot who talks big...
Li Wei thought this to himself, but there was nothing he could do in the next two minutes.
He's human, he has limits, and he's already run at his fastest speed.
However, the walkie-talkie soon rang again.
However, this time it's not a request for help, but a request for support.
"A three-person patrol team, without automatic weapons, is moving towards service room 208 on the west side of the casino lobby!"
"Two more people added to the weapons storage room. They've changed clothes, are equipped with automatic weapons and body armor, and are moving towards Service Room 208!"
Li Wei realized he had underestimated the security on the Platinum Star.
Despite being outnumbered and outequipped, and caught off guard, they were not routed and even managed to organize effective support... This group of people are not "newbies" who have never been on the battlefield.
However, while the combat effectiveness of "veterans" is guaranteed, they are also prone to acting on their own without clear orders.
While running, Li Wei immediately pressed the intercom and began giving orders.
"I am Li Wei!"
Li Wei first revealed his identity, borrowing the title of the behind-the-scenes "big boss," but he deliberately kept it a secret, not saying that he was the big boss, but only that he was "Li Wei."
That way, even if they go to court, he'll still be in the right.
Then, he immediately gave the order.
"Everyone! Your primary mission is to provide support and hold your ground!"
"No one is permitted to act without authorization before the new order is issued!"
Perhaps the title of "big boss" was indeed useful, or perhaps Li Wei's actions since the beginning of the operation had "convinced" the security personnel with his actions. Soon, a response that provoked Biff came through the walkie-talkie.
After everyone proactively reported their location and situation, all the replies ended up being exactly the same.
"clear!"
Without exception.
Li Wei's lips curled up slightly. He felt as if he had returned to the battlefield and become that front-line "Outstanding Special Operations Commander" again.
That peacekeeping experience was not only filled with the unbearable memory of "betrayal," but also contained many things worth reminiscing about for a lifetime.
Just like... the scene right in front of us.
Although he had forgotten how many times he had experienced it, this kind of thing still gave him a thrilling and exciting... joy.
Li Wei, who had been running all the way, soon arrived at the north side of the casino hall.
The two sides were engaged in a fierce battle, but the number of enemy troops differed from what Sean had reported.
one two Three……
Li Wei, who was hidden in the four corners of the field of vision, quickly counted the number of people.
Twenty-three.
It seems that it's not just the security guards who will provide support.
