The Urban Dao Child

Yang Dao asked when the two stood outside the jeep, “Sister Bai, what is the plan?”

Laohu Bai spoke in a soft voice, “Young master, now I am your commander. We are on a military assignment. Do bear that in your mind.”

Yang Dao nodded and said, “My apologies, General.”

Laohu Bai said, “Now, we first search for sentries. Since they entered inside the city and can blatantly attack people, that means they have people to back them up. These backup forces are usually hidden in the immediate surroundings. So we will locate and diffuse them first. Make sure you have the gun suppressed and only use a gun when you cannot deal with the enemy with melee.”

Yang Dao asked, “Yes, Sir.”

Laohu Bai said, “Here take the comms, you search the top of the buildings while I search the streets.”

Yang Dao nodded and took the comms, an earpiece, and a mic connected to a battery box on his utility belt. Laohu Bai walked up to the police officer, who stopped them earlier and said, “Connect me to your commanding officer.”

The policeman nodded, using his walkie-talkie connected to the commanding officer. He spoke, “Chief, there is a special force general here. She wants to talk to you.”

The other side replied in a deep voice, “Put her on.”

Laohu Bai grabbed the walkie-talkie and said, “My name is General Laohu Bai, ID number – 2879… You can confirm my identity.”

The other side did not respond until a few minutes. Then the chief’s voice sounded, “General, you now have the command, what are my orders.”

The girl replied, “Maintain the status quo, leave the rest to me.” her commanding tone left no room to question and doubts.

The chief acknowledged, Laohu Bai left with Yang Dao to skim through the alleyways. The walkie-talkie sounded again, “Harry, how many troops does the general have?”

The policeman was called Harry. He replied, “Including her, it is a two people team chief.”

The other side fell silent in shock.

…

Yang Dao carried a long barrel sniper on his back and a dagger in his hand. He first entered a building. The city had a not-so-impressive infrastructure. The people could traverse from roof to roof and there were almost no buildings that would be higher than ten floors. The boy checked every corner of the staircase before he climbed up. to the roof. He set his sights on the tallest building in the area. It was 600 meters away from his position. He took off the Sniper Rifle and sat down on the ground.

With a deep breath, he focused on interacting with the wind. An area of a hundred meters around him immediately fell under his radar. The wind flow became his search tool. Swiftly sweeping over the top of all the buildings in a radius of a hundred meters. He found nothing and said as he pressed the mic switch.

“Report, General, do you copy?”

Laohu Bai returned, “Go ahead.”

Yang Dao said, “Wind sweep discovered nothing in a hundred meters, permission to advance the search radius.”

Laohu Bai, “Granted, act to kill.”

Yang Dao replied, “Acknowledged.”

The boy then picked up his sniper rifle and ran over to the edge of the roof and took a leap. He willed the wind to give him a boost and he landed on to the next building. After careful sweep and search, he arrived at the tallest building. The night was a perfect cover for the two people.

Laohu Bai suddenly contacted him, “Come In, tower.” tower was Yang Dao’s code name as he was a sniper on the tall building. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ​ꪶ​

He pressed the mic and replied, “Go, for Tower.”

Laohu Bai said, “300 Metres to your north, do you see movement?”

Yang Dao changed his position and placed his eyes on the location suggested by Laohu Bai. He spoke, “Movement spotted. Three assailants, armed.”

Laohu Bai spoke, “Lazer mark the one you have a clear shot at, leave the rest for me.”

The sniper rifle was equipped with a laser pointer it was a UV laser visible to only those who had special glasses equipped. The boy marked the target he was comfortable to take out and also sure.

…

At this moment, three people holding guns were talking about something, when suddenly with a  PUFF, the head of their comrade was blasted off like a watermelon. Before they could react a bullet found its way to the second guy’s head and the third had his throat pierced by a dagger.

Laohu Bai came out of the dark. She heard a message from the comms, “Report, Two assailants, three blocks away.”

She turned her head in the direction and said, “Alright… approaching the target.”

The two people worked and searched for about 30 minutes and killed 9 assailants. Then they came to stop near the restaurant where the three people had 20 hostages covering the windows. You Xi Wang laid prone on the building opposite the restaurant, due to the elevation angle he was hidden in plain sight.

The terrorists have been trying to contact their backup forces but did not get any response. This made them panic. Laohu Bai walked up to the chief of police who had a parameter set up around the restaurant.

The other party saw her uniform covered in blood and asked, “Ma’am are you okay?”

Laohu Bai responded, “Thank you for asking I am fine, what is the situation?”

The chief responded, “They have twenty hostages placed against the window and we are not sure about taking them out.”

The general asked, “Demands?”

The police chief nodded and said, “They want Paulson Romero to be set free.”

Laohu Bai spat on the ground when she heard, “Ma’am I have a clean shot on the terrorists.” coming from her come.

It was Yang Dao. He positioned himself to the side building where scaffolding was placed. He was laying on that scaffolding and three terrorists were all visible to him from the angle. The three people were hiding behind a counter and were barely visible from an exhaust fan hole. At this moment the electricity of the place was cut and they only had flashlights.

Laohu Bai asked, “How confident?”

Yang Dao replied, “100%.”

Laohu Bai took a deep breath, “Take the shot.”

Yang Dao did not hesitate and squeezed the trigger.

PUFF, PUFF, PUFF.

One muffled shot and three people dead. Yang Dao bent the wind to accomplish that. He used the wind to sense the bullet trajectory, and calculated the amount of deviation after the bullet will hit the target. His bullet passed through the neck of the first target from the side, then through the jaw of the second target next to him, finally lodged inside the third target’s skull.

Yang Dao said, “General, Target diffused.”
