Mercenary’s War

"Keep a straight line, go, go, stop!"

A soldier shouted while gesturing, directing the missile launcher vehicle out from its concealed position.

"Check equipment! Check ammunition, prepare to board the vehicles!"

This is Glolov, taking on Satan’s pre-departure inspection work while Gao Yang is busy.

Gao Yang is having a final conversation with Niva.

"The missile launch position has been preset, the missile targets have also been determined, all these time-consuming preparations have already been completed in advance, so we can shorten the launch time a bit."

Niva mimicked the missile launch motion with his hand and said in a deep voice, "Inertial guidance requires pre-setting coordinates. Once set, the missiles can attack. Currently, two of the missiles are aimed at the military camp, and two are aimed at the Shah military base. This is how I’m preparing because the missile data has been pre-set, so the missile launcher vehicles are divided into two launch groups. One group has the ability to adjust the attack target at any time, and the second group launches missiles with already set data. They just need to complete the elevation and launch, which allows us to use our limited personnel to launch four missiles simultaneously."

Gao Yang squatted on the ground unceremoniously, pointing his finger at the map spread on the sand, "According to intelligence, the airport has become important, so we must prepare to attack the airport."

Niva nodded, "It’s convenient, it takes less than twenty minutes to change the attack target."

Gao Yang thought for a moment and pointed at the military camp, "Let’s aim only one here, prepare two for the military base, and one for the airport. Await my command for immediate attack."

Niva nodded, "Yes."

Gao Yang didn’t finish; he continued with a serious face, "We have plenty of spare missiles. I want to know, can we repeat launch with replacements after firing?"

Niva nodded, "Of course, it takes thirty to forty minutes to repeat a launch, provided the launch position isn’t changed. But during repeated launches, only two missiles can be fired. Our manpower is too limited to repeat launch with all four vehicles simultaneously. Additionally, the risk of continuous firing increases enormously; exposure of the position without moving could very likely result in aerial strikes."

Gao Yang said, "I know, but we need to do this."

Niva waved his hand with a smile, "Missile troopers will complete the mission resolutely!"

Gao Yang stood up and saluted Niva; Niva returned the salute, both being very solemn.

Gao Yang turned and waved to Satan’s main team, then everyone dispersed quickly and boarded their vehicles.

Joseph was still driving, but this time Peter was also in Gao Yang’s car.

Gao Yang himself was part of the assault group, and this time, all of Satan was the assault group. Although the main battlefield of the rescue operation was shifted from the military camp to the road, it was still a close combat that had to be fast.

Conducting a raid at the core position of the enemy-controlled territory, dragging on time would mean total annihilation, so the assault force had to be strengthened.

Satan had to rush near Aden and then decide whether to infiltrate Aden secretly or attack it forcefully. Even reaching the battlefield was an extremely challenging task.

A lot can be done during the travel time.

Strictly speaking, the Shah Intelligence Agency did quite well this time.

The working group tightly sealed off all news regarding Hammer. Though they weren’t completely successful, they had already caused significant challenges for the Black Demon’s intelligence-gathering operations due to intelligence not being timely enough, delaying it by at least a few hours.

Even a few hours of delay can bring many serious consequences, like shortening Satan’s preparation time, especially when suddenly discovering that Hammer may be moved anytime, making the action seem urgent.

Now, Gao Yang is determined to turn passive into active; regardless of whether the enemy wants to move Hammer, he wants to force the enemy to move Hammer. Only then can he seize the opportunity to reclaim Hammer on the relocation path.

According to intelligence, no abnormal aircraft landed at Aden Airport, especially no planes from Saudi Arabia, so Gao Yang focused on the route from the military camp to the military base, feeling that since Shah Intelligence Agency hadn’t prepared to move Hammer to Saudi Arabia, the most likely scenario was relocating to the military base.

But the choice of route by the working group could be a problem.

Gao Yang decided on the Night Battle, Satan’s strongest suit, and certainly the weakest point for a larger force of thousands; this is an objective rule, inevitable, and so he chose the Night Battle.

Gao Yang called Justin, then said in a deep voice, "How’s the character analysis of the target going?"

Justin said gravely, "The Shah Intelligence Agency working group’s leader is named Aziz bin Nayef. Although his position within the Shah Intelligence Agency isn’t high, he is a core member of Shah Intelligence Agency. He has trained in America with outstanding results, and from several successful operations, it can be seen that he is very cautious, often using decoy targets to draw enemy attention and then succeeding from an unexpected area. He has successfully captured spies twice using this method."

Gao Yang said gravely, "Feign east, strike west, deceive heaven, cross the sea. So, which route does your psychologist predict he will take?"

Justin said gravely, "Route four."

"Not the shortest, not the longest, but the hardest route to travel?"

"Yes, my reasoning team concluded route four."

"Okay, I understand."

Hanging up the phone, Gao Yang picked up the radio, "Earth calling Moon Base, have you analyzed the results?"

Tarta said in a deep voice, "We also believe it is route four."

Justin got the personnel data from high levels of Saudi Arabia.

Frontline members are fighting desperately, yet the high-level leaders would betray those fighting for their interests—this isn’t the first time and won’t be the last.

But the Shah Intelligence Agency’s working group has the autonomy to determine specific actions, so Justin couldn’t acquire the choice of routes if Hammer was to be moved.

Therefore, one can only seek answers from the leader’s character and experience, essentially a guess.

But in fact, much intelligence work often relies on guessing.

Justin and the Black Demon both guessed which route the working group leader would take, and their conclusions surprisingly aligned, so Gao Yang decided to prepare for the rescue activities on route four.

Of course, the inference or guess result is just a reference and not the final basis for making decisions.

"Route four, route four, this number is unlucky for Huaxia people."

Mumbling a few sentences, Gao Yang picked up the radio and said sternly, "The conclusion on that side is also route four, let’s focus our arrangements on route four then."

Tarta said in a deep voice, "Understood, we will focus our arrangements on route four."
