Chapter 541: Chapter 245: New Year, Flames

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s gaze shifted to the mountain opposite.

Because all three phases of their training involved live ammunition, combined with complex scenario training requiring extensive outdoor settings, they had recently been training in Fuyun County, and they always noticed the pastoral village on the opposite mountain.

"It really looks like there’s a fire!"

"Should we tell Mr. Qiu and Mr. Xiong?"

As special police officers, they would certainly not overlook a perilous situation, but since they didn’t have mobile phones on them, they couldn’t report the fire, so everyone looked to Gu Ji.

After a period of elimination and integration, their sixth team was now composed of two squads from the Ningzhou City Bureau Special Police and the Shenzhou City Bureau Special Police.

Due to Gu Ji’s advantages in cross-country swimming and tactical command.

He gradually became the acknowledged leader in their sixth team.

"Gu Ji from the sixth training team, reporting to the instructor, we’ve discovered visible fire and thick smoke on the northeast slope village, suspected to be a fire in a pastoral home." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Because today’s training subject was field capture training, the team was spread out relatively thinly; for ease of communication, they were all equipped with radios and tactical headsets.

"I understand," Qiu Junrong replied through the tactical headset.

In less than a minute.

His voice came through the headset once more: "Training suspended, everyone gather at the foot of the mountain!"

"Looks like he wants us to go help put out the fire?" Li Yaoguang scratched the wrinkles on his forehead.

Gao Bo tightened the strap of his gun, "The firefighters are probably going to arrive a bit slowly."

Once everyone reached the foot of the mountain, Qiu Junrong’s explanation was indeed just as Gao Bo said, the nearest fire brigade in Fuyun County would take at least half an hour to arrive, while their training location was only three or four kilometers away from the fire site, they could arrive in 15 minutes at most.

Even though special police aren’t as professional as firefighters in extinguishing fires,

emergency rescue is also part of the duties of police officers; they can at least assist in searching and rescuing trapped people, transporting the injured, etc., to prevent casualties.

Two buses started up.

In the heavy snow weather, in a high-altitude area like Buzhou Mountain, the bus engine performance declined severely, but fortunately the highland wasn’t as rugged as mountainous terrain like Yujing Mountain, so following the mountain road they could quickly drive to the vicinity of the pastoral village.

"The fire seems to be getting worse, two or three houses are engulfed in flames."

Through the window, Zhou Yang saw a piece of pastoral village made up of a dozen or so households in the distance, of which three houses in the northeast corner were completely enveloped by roaring flames.

"It looks like two people are running over!"

Someone shouted from the front seat of the bus, and the driver immediately began to slow down.

But when Liu Weijun focused his eyes, he saw that of the two people running towards them, the Jinbang pastoralist in the front, wearing a scorched cotton coat, was covering his side neck, blood streaming out, while the person behind him was wielding a long knife, looking ferociously murderous.

"Stop the bus!!"

"Hello? Quickly connect to Fuyun County Special Police Team, I’m Xiong Changyuan from the City Bureau Special Operations Team, violent arson and armed assault are happening in the Kumata Mountain village of Pau Town..."

In an instant, with one shouting loudly, and the other immediately pulling out a phone to call for emergency, although Xiong Changyuan was a police officer, he was currently on vacation, and this wasn’t his jurisdiction either.

The bus doors opened.

"Murder! Help...!"

"Stop it!"

With his whole body trembling, the injured pastoralist opened his mouth halfway, letting out a hoarse scream as if his throat was scorched by fire.

Qiu Junrong pointed at the knife-wielding assailant and shouted angrily, suddenly charging forward.

Close behind him was Xiong Changyuan, who before leaving handed his phone to the special police officer next to him, "Quickly call 120 for rescue!"

The two of them flanked from either side, quickly dashing toward the assailant.

The pastoralist then scrambled and crawled into the bus, almost every part of his body trembling, the blood from his neck seemed about to burst open, kept flowing through his finger gaps, "Help, help, someone is setting fire and killing in the village, hurry and save..."

As he spoke, someone pointed to the village not far outside the window and shouted: "Another house has been set on fire!"

A typical indiscriminate attack.

It’s deliberate murder!!

"Everyone quickly get down there to help the instructors!"

"Hello! Is it the 120 emergency center, I’m..."

"No, his wound is too deep, tourniquet can’t hold, who knows how to stop bleeding?"

Someone among the special police shouted, holding onto the phone of Xiong Changyuan’s special police while yelling to the hospital emergency center, and the special police responsible for treating the pastoralist’s wound, seeing the blood constantly seeping out from the gauze, looked panic-stricken.

In an instant, the inside of the bus became chaotic.

"Everyone quiet, let him focus on calling 120, split into two groups, one to maintain order, one to assist the instructors!"

Seeing the round-faced special police not very adept at handling neck wounds, Gu Ji hurriedly moved through the aisle and squatted next to the injured pastoralist, "Leave it to me!"

The round-faced special police hesitated for a moment, then slowly let go.

There’s a gaping wound four or five centimeters long on the neck, pulsating with the pastoralist’s nervous breathing, it should be caused by the slash of that assailant outside. Judging by the bleeding, it’s clearly damaged the carotid artery.

"Use your fingers to press above the wound, hard, you must press against the bone to stop blood circulation!"

"Ah, alright!"

The round-faced special police immediately did as instructed.

"First aid kit! I need a lot of gauze and cotton balls!" Gu Ji barked, prompting Li Yanan, who was nearest, to immediately remove her first aid kit, and other team six members like Gao Bo, Wu Kang, took out the said items.
