Chapter 450: The City Association's Will
The rioters firing ahead were clearly just stalling for time and had no intention of fighting them to the death at all.
This action was precisely the situation the Guard Platoon leader least wanted to see.
After all, there were also large numbers of civilians rioting on both the left and right flanks, and returning the way they came was even more impossible.
If this Guard Platoon ceased fire, the Management Committee Office building would be completely taken over by the rebels not long after they withdrew.
The staff who had stayed inside unwilling to take risks were probably all killed by now.
Returning the way they came now would be tantamount to suicide.
The most troublesome part was that the rioters who had occupied the Management Committee Office seemed to want revenge and had no intention of letting them leave, chasing right after them.
With enemies in front and behind, the Guard Platoon leader had no choice but to order his men to throw a grenade over and see if they could take out the guys hiding behind cover.
The result was not ideal.
