Leitao switched his tactical watch to demolition mode and affixed three micro-explosives to the ice wall. "Wildcat, take three men to the B-sector ventilation shaft and set the timed detonators." He removed his night-vision goggles; the chaotic skirmish inside the mine shaft appeared as crimson thermal signatures, with the Japanese Army heavy machine gun squad already having set up positions 300 meters away.
Black Dragon suddenly lunged, pushing off the rock wall with its front paws to twist mid-air and clamp its jaws onto the wrist of a Japanese grenadier. Seizing the moment, Leitao rolled behind a mine cart, pulled a climbing hook from his backpack, and threw it to snag a steel beam above. With a burst of strength, he swung over the rain of bullets, his dagger finding the temple of the machine gunner as he landed.
"Old Qiao! Ammo box, front left!" Leitao kicked the body away and hooked a grenade from a Japanese soldier’s belt with his gun barrel. A muffled explosion sounded from the communicator as the rock wall to his left collapsed, the debris effectively cutting off the Japanese pursuit. He grabbed a protruding steel rod to swing across the ten-meter-deep mine pit, sparks showering around him as bullets shredded the iron frame behind him.
