King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer
Chapter 903 - 814: Boss Qiao Is Very Valuable, The Enemy Is Very Anxious

After Joe Ga issued his commands, he left the rudimentary communication room and hurried into a pre-arranged sniper spot.

It was a small stone hut located above the height of the village...

Joe Ga set up a table by the window, dragged a chair over to sit down, and then gripped the Beretta that he never quite got used to, and began to wait...

There were 20 people approaching, and after sunset, they slowly moved towards the village from two directions, using the cover of the grassfields.

When they were 1.5 kilometers from the village, they chose to crawl forward.

If it weren't for the eyes in the sky, it would be really hard to detect them with just the naked eye.

All of them were Bata's most elite reconnaissance troops, and Joe Ga had to suppress his impatience, urging them to move a bit faster in his mind.

This first wave couldn't be hit too hard. They need to feel like they had a chance to muster the courage for a full assault.

So aside from the T1 special forces that had already left, the rest of the people retracted to the village's second line of defense, clearing out the outer ruins.

Ayu sat behind and to the side of Joe Ga with a machine gun, well accustomed to his boss's restlessness during the wait.

It was 'Spider' next to them who was a little unused to a boss with 'flaws,' uncertain whether he should remind his boss or not.

Joe Ga had a clear self-awareness. Realizing that the enemies would still take a while to reach their position, he simply picked up the radio and said: "Elephant, give them time to observe. We need to make them think they've been discovered unintentionally by us."

Dorian knew his boss all too well. He immediately said: "Don't worry, boss, I'll give you a signal in advance. When they retreat, that's when you take a few of them out..."

Hearing Dorian's plan, Joe Ga chuckled over the radio and joked: "As the besieged, the idea of worrying about the enemy getting cold feet and running away is quite novel to us, isn't it?"

Over the public channel, old squad leader Solon spoke with a solemn tone: "Boss, don't let your guard down.

These scouts are quite interesting, it seems like they've received professional training..."

Joe Ga nonchalantly replied: "No problem, P·B is all about taking on professional opponents!"

As he was speaking, Joe Ga looked through the scope again, and after a 'yoohoo,' he said: "They've stopped, 900 meters away, they have night vision binoculars.

Special forces, pay attention, turn off your IR headlamps. Don't let them spot you just as you go around."

While Joe Ga was speaking, the patrol and sentry in the village continued as usual...

Seeing the enemy stopped at a neither too close nor too distant spot, Dorian said helplessly: "Boss, if they don't come closer, what should we do?"

While Dorian was speaking, the 'Hellhound', which had set out a while ago, suddenly sent a message...

"The enemy has started moving. It seems they don't plan to wait too long.

Everyone be ready. The enemy is spread out, and I've seen quite a few RPGs."

At this moment, Solon ran to the communication room to observe the real-time surveillance footage for a while, and said over the radio with a heavy tone: "Boss, get ready. These Bata people seem in a hurry, so they want to force their way through.

Mortars are not very effective against dispersed troops. Let them enter the ruins..."

Upon hearing this, Joe Ga stroked his chin and mused, "Why are they in such a rush?"

Solon, who was in the communication room and had ample experience, watched the screen thoughtfully and said, "Maybe it's because they know ISIS has made a move, and they're trying to get a step ahead..."

"Why? What's the hurry to get into a fight?"

As Joe Ga looked puzzled, a call came through to his phone...

He glanced at the number, answered the call with some annoyance, "I'm busy right now. Keep an eye on that 'Teacher' for a while. Once I'm free, I'll go grab him."

Aaron, on the other end of the phone, said indifferently, "I'm not in a hurry. Right now the 'Teacher' is right opposite you. He coordinates external relations for ISIS, an important commander for the joint siege against you.

The CIA will soon pass this intelligence to you, but I guess they'd rather you hold up ISIS's men because Hafali has sent news.

He's made a call to Homeland Security, wanting to get his wife and children back."

Joe Ga was taken aback for a moment, then quickly realized Aaron was informing him that the first dirty bomb was about to go off...

Joe Ga believed that the dirty bomb wouldn't affect the New Jersey Branch, but he was still a bit anxious as he said, "Where will it be?"

Aaron laughed and responded: "You should worry about yourself.

Do you know how much you're worth right now?"

Joe Ga froze for a moment and said sullenly, "I'm not going to price my damn self!

Hurry up and say it. I want to know how much my enemies are willing to pay for my life!"

After a pause, Aaron said: "50 million US dollars!"

"How much? 50 million?"

Joe Ga was infuriated to the point of laughter. Since entering Syria, he had already invested far more than 50 million in military hardware, yet these people actually thought they could buy his life for 50 million?

Aaron certainly knew what Joe Ga was thinking and said with a bit of schadenfreude: "It's that the person who kills you gets a bonus of 50 million additionally. The hiring fee is calculated separately.

This 50 million is the bounty offered by the 'Glorious Society'.

Additionally, several secret funds have made their way into the accounts of International Mediator Company, cumulatively amounting to over 80 million US Dollars.

Hu Lang, you're in for bad luck—no matter who gets rid of you, they'll be able to collect this sum from the International Mediator Company.

80 million, ah, that's an enormous amount of money that would tempt most people to take the risk!

I once advised you to invest in a fund with the International Mediator Company, but you ignored me; now, you're the one in trouble.

As far as I know, apart from those hired mercenaries, there are also other guys in Syria who are ready to die for money—they've got some real talent among them, and a few are veteran assassins.

Hu Lang, from now on, you have to be extra careful whenever you appear in public places!"

Upon hearing this, Joe Ga cursed angrily: "Is that damn intermediary out of their mind? They accept this kind of business?

Who's in charge of that company? I'll have someone take him out.

No more payer, no more problem!"

Aaron laughed upon hearing this and said: "Then, the number of people you have to kill is far too many!

I can suggest a few easier targets for you…

Anfield Dupont, the next helmsman of the Dupont Family.

Bruce Isaac, a Marquis from England, I can't exactly tell you his job in terms you'd understand, but you just need to know he has strong connections in the House of Lords.

Do you want to hear about some other names or not?"

Joe Ga decisively said: "Yes, I do. Even though I know you're trying to use me, that's fine. Just give me the list. I take on trouble from dawn till dusk, don't let me catch an opportunity...

If I run into them, I'll kill them!"

These words made Aaron feel somewhat unease inside, and he said in resignation: "Forget it, I'll take care of this for you. Once you're done with Syria, go back to Central Africa and spend time with your Devil Bird."

Joe Ga, being perceptive, immediately spotted the problem and said: "So, your target is the International Mediator Company?

They're powerful; how are you going to take control of it?"

Aaron, not sure how many times he had inadvertently revealed his intentions in front of Joe Ga, said helplessly: "Hu Lang, let's not spell out what's unspoken, we're still good friends!

I called you because I wanted to tell you, you're in trouble!

Not only because of the 80 million, but the 'Arctic Fox Mercenary Group' has also hired some top guns through the International Mediator Company to go into Iraq; you're undoubtedly their target too!"

At this point, Joe Ga felt like there were too many lice to bother scratching, and he said nonchalantly: "There are plenty who want me dead, what's 'Arctic Fox' to me?

But now I understand why their actions are a bit odd; turns out even terrorists will vie amongst themselves to make a buck,

They seem brave to look at, but that's just about it..."

While speaking, Joe Ga thought of something and said, amused: "How did you find out about 'Arctic Fox'?"

Aaron was particularly annoyed by boss Joe's tone and demeanor, retorting: "That's a trade secret…"

Joe Ga didn't press further and said with a chuckle: "Remember your old friend 'Clock'?

They were working at the International Mediator Company and at the same time, masquerading as Delta Force partaking in the escort of Hafali's wife and children. They encountered an attack by 'Arctic Fox' and suffered severe losses..."

Upon hearing this, Aaron sighed and said: "Hu Lang, 'Clock' and the others have already had a rough time, could you please stop bringing this up?

Wow, your talent for making trouble for your enemies is incomparable..."

Joe Ga readily accepted Aaron's 'compliment' and then hung up the phone, picked up a radio and said: "Guys, your boss is now worth 80 million US Dollars.

We've got a tough battle tonight, don't let me down..."

"Boom..."

The moment Joe Ga's voice died down, a huge explosion occurred about a kilometer away from the village.

Then the artillery began to call over the radio...

"Enemy has 120mm mortars, coordinates ***·***, request for counter-attack..."
