Doomsday: I Build a Space Fleet

Chapter 35 Capturing Prisoners

After confirming that Tengu had received the order, Lorraine continued to deal with the vehicle. The driver was successfully killed, and the entire vehicle crashed into a nearby building.

Lorraine quickly changed his magazine, killed the two disoriented armed men in the back of the pickup truck, and then distributed the remaining bullets equally among all the seats in the vehicle.

"Enemy armed personnel, all killed, prepare to advance."

Lorraine picked up the sniper rifle and rushed to the rooftop.

"Permission to proceed."

Lorraine went up to the rooftop, set up his sniper rifle, and aimed at the second and third cars of the enemy convoy.

"Bang bang bang bang" Four bullets in quick succession suppressed the people who were trying to open the car door and escape.

"Tengu, someone's preparing to escape! Where are you?"

"Di Ting is expected to arrive in 1 minute, and Tian Gou is expected to arrive in 1 minute and 30 seconds."

Tengu and Diting raced through the city at full speed, rapidly approaching the enemy's second and third vehicles, which were engulfed in flames.

Lorraine changed to a new magazine but did not continue firing, which put immense pressure on the people in the car.

Inside the enemy's third vehicle, the driver asked the leader of the convoy.

"Boss, the other side has large-caliber weapons and artillery. Vehicle number 1 has been destroyed, and vehicle number 4 is probably gone too. What do we do now?"

The technician sitting in the passenger seat was trembling with fear, unable to utter a single word.

The convoy leader considered the current situation for a moment and then spoke.

"They noticed us yesterday, and now they probably want to capture us alive."

"Boss, how about we get off the bus and surrender?"

Upon hearing that the other party wanted to capture him alive, the driver felt he had a chance to survive.

"If we can provide information, we can survive, right?"

The driver looked at the leader with excitement. Upon hearing this, the technician, who had stopped trembling, also turned to look at the leader.

"Slap!" The burly leader slapped the driver's head back down.

"If they wanted to capture all of us alive, they wouldn't have blown up car number 1."

The driver kept his head down and dared not speak.

The convoy leader rubbed his bald head with his hand.

"Here, take this. Open the car door first and stick the white flag out. If they don't shoot, put the gun on the roof first, then get out of the car with your hands raised. Throw this out when they come into your sight."

The convoy leader handed the driver a crudely made projectile of unknown origin.

"Boss, what's this?"

The driver sensed something was wrong and asked a question in a trembling voice.

"Don't worry, it's just a small thing to block your view."

The convoy leader smiled meaningfully.

"Then why didn't you use it just now?"

"Slap!" This time, the slap landed on the technician's head.

"You've learned some technology but it's made you stupid, haven't you? A cloud of smoke can only cover a limited area. Do you want to be blown to bits by artillery fire or be shot to death through the smoke?"

The convoy leader gritted his teeth and spat out these words. He thought to himself, "If this were a smokescreen, wouldn't I have used it already? Why would I have waited until now?"

Thinking of this, the team leader looked at the technician, stroked his beard, and began to ponder.

"The most valuable people in the entire team are me and this technician. So, could I use him as a hostage?"

Thinking of this, the way the convoy leader looked at the technician changed. It was like the look of a hungry wolf eyeing its prey.

The technician shivered as he met the leader's eyes, which had returned to normal.

The convoy leader grinned and offered words of comfort.

"Don't worry, we'll all survive."

Then he signaled to the driver to extend the white flag outside the vehicle.

"The Tengu is in position."

"The Di Ting is in position."

"Wait a minute, the enemy has raised the white flag. Hidden Di Ting, Tengu, go up. Once the enemy shows any unusual behavior, decide when to fire."

"receive."

Meanwhile, the driver who had raised the white flag waited a few seconds without hearing any gunfire before slowly placing a crudely made firearm on the roof of the vehicle and shouting.

"Don't shoot, I surrender."

At this time, because the No. 2 vehicle was too close to the No. 1 vehicle, it was affected by the explosion of the No. 1 vehicle, and the crew members in the vehicle are still in a coma.

Lorraine looked at the guns placed on the roof of the car. Although she didn't know what the other party was shouting, she could tell that they were giving up and preparing to surrender.

"Tengu, get away and see what's going on here."

"Lorraine, why did the driver come out?"

"I don't know, but it's definitely not a good thing. If we could attach a loudspeaker and a gun to our drones, this would be much easier to solve."

"Support Unit 1, the drone has been loaded with bombs and taken off again. It is expected to arrive in 2 minutes."

"I'll show up when your drone arrives."

"Remember to keep your distance and don't move closer."

"Don't worry, the Tengu has his eye on him."

Although he had a brief conversation with Ouyang Nian on the ship, his attention remained focused on the car.

The driver saw a huge mechanical dog carrying a machine gun suddenly appear in the direction of vehicle number 4.

The Tengu's observation equipment reflected a faint green light, and coupled with its heavy footsteps, it terrified the driver, who nearly knelt on the ground.

"Support drones are ready."

"Understood. I'll go down and meet him now. Tengu, keep an eye on him. Di Ting, find a way to go around to the other side and hide."

"Received by Di Ting".

Upon hearing this, the tengu stopped and stood motionless, staring at the driver.

"That good-for-nothing, he didn't even bother to say a word about what was happening outside."

The leader cursed under his breath, trying to relieve the pressure.

Before long, Lorraine appeared from the shadows opposite the pilot, guided by a reconnaissance drone.

"Is there anything you'd like to say?"

Before Lorraine could finish speaking, she saw the driver on the other side make a move.

"Bang—bang bang"

Tengu decisively opened fire, severing the driver's hand with the first shot, followed by a shot to the chest and a shot to the head, personally sending the driver to his death.

"Should I personally invite you two out?"

Lorraine raised the lynx in her hand and said in a cold voice.

"He must be bluffing me."

The leader sitting in the car was somewhat panicked.

"Bang"

A loud gunshot rang out, and bullets grazed the roof of the car.

"You have three seconds: either get out of the car or die in it."

Seeing the two so oblivious to the situation, Lorraine lost her patience and decisively resorted to force.

"Three, two, one."

Two people of vastly different sizes got off the bus, raising their hands and trembling.

Lorraine looked at the two people in front of her with a headache. One was huge and fierce, while the other was as thin as a quail.

"Ouyang Nian, I need you to bring ropes, no, chains, and come here."

"I see, I see, I'm coming right now. But you'll have to wait a little while."

"Remember to put on your armor."

"I understand, but I still value my life."

"I'll be watching you the whole time, so don't move around, or you'll die a horrible death."

While threatening the two, Lorraine slowly retreated into the shadows on the side of the street.

Lorraine quickly went up to the second floor of a building on the street, set up her gun, and stared at the two men.
