Chapter 280: Fury Road (3)
Chapter 280: Fury Road (3)
Outside Sloane, a team of NCR Desert Rangers were hiding in the shade in an ambush.
These people were wearing standard black armor, cowboy hats and sunglasses, holding old revolvers and lever rifles, and resting on the motorcycles behind them.
Even though the equipment looks a bit shabby, it is something only elites can have.
They received intelligence that a team of Caesar's legions was transporting fuel and might pass through here.
Due to the long-term hostility between Caesar's Legion and NCR, everyone is trying to trip each other up and intrigue against each other, and the conflict between the two sides has become irreconcilable.
The territory is limited and the resources are limited, but the power of both sides is expanding and they are fighting tooth and nail for this little piece of land.
Especially the two battles for the Hoover Dam. Although it is the NCR that controls the dam now, their losses were also enormous.
Even so, Caesar's Legion was still guarding the other side of the river, ready to launch a third battle for the Hoover Dam at any time.
In a nutshell, only one person can survive when the two sides meet.
In order to trip up the legion's men and also for that truckload of oil, this team of Desert Rangers has been waiting here for two days.
Just as they were still waiting, bursts of gunfire were heard in the distance.
The leading team leader used a telescope to observe and saw several small cars and a tanker truck speeding towards them.
Wow, that car in the front looks pretty good.
But that's not the point. The point is that the plunderers and Caesar's Legion were fighting, and they seemed to be fighting over the oil tanker.
This is a godsend opportunity. It would be a shame not to get involved.
Thinking of this, the Ranger Captain shouted, "Check your equipment, let's go up and kill them!"
"Let's try to grab the tanker first. If we can't grab it, just blow it up! We can't let the Legion get it no matter what."
After saying that, the Ranger Captain and four other teammates drove three motorcycles and rushed towards the tanker.
On the other side, on the tanker truck, Yi Beiwang was fighting with the legionnaires who had climbed up.
Soldier No. 1 slowly approached and slashed at Yi Beiwang with a knife.
In his opinion, a pretty boy like Yi Beiwang, who had delicate skin and tender flesh, was most likely a specially raised vegetable and posed no threat at all.
But Yi Beiwang did not play by the rules. He directly transformed himself into a virtual object, passed through his knife and body, walked behind him, released his virtual object, and kicked him.
Soldier No. 1 didn't expect this kind of operation to happen. He was kicked off the tanker truck and crushed into a paste by the tires.
Seeing this, the legion captain who was observing through the rearview mirror immediately switched positions with the person in the driver's seat and slammed the steering wheel left and right, trying to throw Yi Beiwang off.
But Yi Beiwang directly changed back to his own Dodge, watching them swaying from side to side like fools, and almost laughed like a pig.
At this time, NCR Rangers joined the battlefield on motorcycles.
They wandered around the periphery, like vultures hovering in the air waiting for their prey to die, looking for the right moment to attack.
The ranger captain rode a motorcycle alone, running in the front to scout.
The other four rangers were divided into two groups, one was responsible for driving, and the other put on a parachute bag and tied himself to the motorcycle with a rope.
When the speed was almost right, the Ranger sitting in the back opened the parachute pack and the wind blew him up into the air.
At first glance, it looks like flying a human kite, but this is also a tactic they often use. They have a tacit understanding with each other and are as skilled at it as eating and drinking.
After the ranger stabilized his body in the air, he took out a throwing knife from his body and threw it at the legion soldiers and plunderers.
Seeing this, the Khorne raiders pulled out their homemade iron pipe guns and attacked, trying to shoot down the Rangers in the sky.
But their bullets were also very bad. The shells were made from 19-hand-made bullets, and the bullets were ground with teeth. They would fly away when the wind blew, and they could not hit the rangers flying in the air, let alone the more maneuverable motorcycles.
Instead of hitting the person, they were stabbed by the flying knives. They hid back in the car, grimacing.
The legionnaires also drew their guns and attacked, but were focused on by the rangers on motorcycles.
They just pulled out their guns without any fear of hitting the tanker truck, and blew up the tires of an off-road vehicle with a few shots.
The off-road vehicle flipped over and was accidentally run over by a tanker truck, leaving the people inside with no chance of survival.
But the legionnaires' marksmanship was better than their close combat skills, and when the soldiers on the other vehicle saw this, they didn't attack the rangers themselves, but directly aimed at the ropes that tied them up.
With a few gunshots, the rope was broken, and the ranger flying in the air was blown away by the wind. Not long after, he fell to the ground and rolled over, but fortunately he did not die.
Seeing this, his companions quickly braked and went to support him, and the NCR's firepower was temporarily weakened.
Another group of Rangers distanced themselves from the Legionnaires in time, so the Legionnaires could not hit them and it was difficult for them to aim at them.
The situation is very chaotic now, the Legion fights the pillager and NCR, the NCR fights them both, and the pillager fights everyone.
The key is that they will not cooperate with either party, and they will beat whoever they catch.
Three groups of people drove their own vehicles, surrounded the tanker, and attacked it back and forth on the road, just like the fight between pirates in the Age of Discovery.
It's just that the ocean has become a road and the sailboats have become vehicles, but they look similar.
At present, it seems that only Yi Beiwang and others who are running in the front are staying out of it.
The Ranger Captain saw this and took advantage of the three groups of people fighting each other to quickly approach Dodge and shouted, "We are NCR Rangers. Now we need your...Mr. Postman, why are you here?"
Seeing that the person sitting in the driver's seat was a postman, the Ranger Captain tactfully swallowed what he was about to say.
He had heard of this man's legend. Apart from anything else, all the powerful forces in Mojave had to give face to this postman.
What if you don't give me face? You die!
The postman smiled and pointed to the oil tank lane behind him: "The people in the Legion don't give me face. It seems that I haven't taken action for too long."
"Tell your people to cooperate with us, and we will deal with them together."
