Upon hearing Zhao Lei's remarks, Zhou Ze...
After a few seconds of stunned silence, he asked with a very serious expression,
"Captain Zhao, this is no joke!"
When Zhao Lei was questioned by Zhou Ze, his expression was a thousand times more serious than Zhou Ze's.
"Company Commander Zhou, veterans are soldiers too!"
"A soldier's greatest honor is to complete the mission assigned by his superiors!"
"Soldiers are not afraid of dying, they are only afraid of dying a cowardly death!"
After Zhao Lei finished speaking with forceful words, Zhou Ze said nothing more, but simply saluted Zhao Lei and said,
"Zhao Lei, you are now a soldier in the fourth squad of the first platoon of the third company of the first battalion of the third regiment!"
"Yes, sir!"
Zhao Lei followed the soldiers to the cabin to retrieve weapons and equipment in preparation for battle, while Zhou Ze took the phone from the communications soldier and made a call!
Beep beep beep...
Wang Jianjun, who was inspecting his Type 56 assault rifle, was suddenly interrupted by the communications soldier behind him.
"Captain, Company Commander Zhou, who is in charge of the raid on Phongsaly, called and said he has important intelligence to tell you!"
Upon hearing the communications soldier's words, Wang Jianjun put down his Type 56 assault rifle without hesitation, took the phone, and spoke.
"I am Wang Jianjun. What intelligence do you have?"
Upon hearing Wang Jianjun's words, Zhou Ze, who was on the ship, immediately spoke up.
"Mr. Wang, the situation has changed!"
"What's wrong?"
"In order to prevent the main force from launching a surprise attack on Phongsaly City via the Mekong River, the Eight-Faced Buddha has laid mines in the Mekong River within the Koh Le area to block the river channel!"
"Therefore, the reinforcements originally scheduled for two hours later will be delayed until before noon tomorrow!"
Upon hearing Zhou Ze's words, Wang Jianjun immediately frowned!
The reinforcements arrived more than ten hours late, so the two hundred men behind him could barely hold out.
But to guarantee that the arsenal will not suffer any damage... that's basically impossible!
War is not child's play, and they are not superheroes!
Even if their combat skills were many times superior to those militants, a single rocket flying over...
Who cares how high your combat skills are...!
After a moment of silence, Wang Jianjun decided to tell Mo Ran about the situation before making a decision.
"Company Commander Zhou, I need to inform my elder brother about this intelligence!"
"Can!"
Wang Jianjun hung up the phone and immediately dialed Mo Ran's number!
beep beep beep...
Mo Ran, who had been up late last night and hadn't gotten out of bed yet, was woken up by the ringing of the phone on her bedside table.
After fumbling around for a few moments to connect the phone, he spoke to the person on the other end, who sounded somewhat impatient.
"Damn it, who's calling like that?!"
"Don't tell me you'll kill your whole family unless it's something important!"
Upon hearing Mo Ran's terrible morning temper, Wang Jianjun apologized and said...
"Brother Ran, there's been a slight mishap!"
"The reinforcements that were originally scheduled to arrive in two hours will not arrive until noon tomorrow because some mines have been laid in the Mekong River!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Ran, who was still half asleep, immediately opened her eyes and all sleepiness vanished from her face!
"Jianjun, what do you mean by this?!"
When Wang Jianjun heard Mo Ran hand over the choice to him, he remained silent for a moment, then looked at the two hundred comrades behind him all staring at him.
Wang Jianjun knew that if he said he could proceed as planned, none of his comrades would complain!
But even the most ruthless Wang Jianjun couldn't bring himself to sacrifice his comrades for a batch of machines!
"Brother Ran, the arsenal can't be defended!"
Upon hearing Wang Jianjun's simple yet affirmative answer, Mo Ran spoke without the slightest hesitation.
"The arsenal is not important; your safety is what matters!"
"How about I call Commander Fang and ask him to cancel the raid and adopt a more stable offensive strategy?"
Mo Ran really wanted to get this arms factory for free!
But compared to Wang Jianjun's two hundred men, this arsenal is nothing!
These two hundred people went undercover in the Golden Triangle's Eight-Faced Buddha territory just because of one sentence!
And because of a single sentence he uttered, he stepped out of the shadows and into the open to fight the Eight-Faced Buddha to the death!
Can such a loyal follower be measured by money?
There's a saying that goes, "A loyal person is worth more than a thousand pieces of gold!"
Seeing that Mo Ran had said those words without even thinking, Wang Jianjun felt a warmth in his heart and continued,
"Brother Ran, there's no need to retreat!"
"There's still an hour before the operation begins, and I'm currently in a makeshift fortification."
"This hour is enough to reinforce the fortifications and hold off the Eight-Faced Buddha's attack!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Ran remained silent for a few seconds before replying.
"Since you think it's okay, then let's decide on this!"
"Remember, your lives are the most important!"
"Understood, Brother Ran!"
After hanging up the phone, Wang Jianjun immediately spoke to his comrades behind him.
"Hurry up the construction of fortifications!"
"Brother Ran said that our lives are more important than the arsenal!"
Upon hearing these words, the two hundred soldiers felt a deep sense of loyalty and camaraderie, as if they were ready to die for their confidant.
"clear!"
Seeing his comrades working hard to build fortifications, Wang Jianjun called Zhou Ze again!
After discussing their plan, Zhou Ze first set fire to create chaos and set fire to the military camp's armory. Then, he joined up with Wang Jianjun's men and went to the position to hold out for reinforcements.
On the other side, in Phongsari, the Eight-Faced Buddha watched the soldiers orderly preparing for battle and smiled, saying...
“If the Mekong River is blocked with mines, the mainland army will be unable to cross unless they can fly… even if they had two legs!”
