King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer
Chapter 939 - 845: Harvest!

Joe Ga rested in the safe zone for three days...

In the command room, he watched the entire process of the siege on ISIS terrorists through an unmanned aerial vehicle.

Nearly 5,000 terrorist soldiers were scattered from the beginning, some of whom tried to flee south along the highway, only to run head-on into 120 of China's Special Forces...

These Rabbits, operating American military weapons, showed Joe a modernized, coordinated armored combat display.

At the moment of encounter, it began with a Bradley fighting vehicle opening fire, followed by two Humvees providing cover, and a group of Rabbit soldiers flanking and raiding...

Such tactics were unresolvable for the terrorists who were severely short on ammunition. It didn't matter how many people you had, no regular human could keep calm under the 'Viper Cannon's' fire.

This Special Forces Squadron's tactical capability was impeccable. Apart from some initial panic, they had developed their own combat process by the end...

'Viper Cannon' warning, Humvee M2 mobile cover. No matter what, fire two rounds first, then dismount infantry for a closer inspection.

If there's resistance, greet them with an RPG, and if there are still survivors who want to surrender, then accept the surrender...

Practicing with the collapsing ISIS terrorists, this Special Forces enjoyed VIP on-the-job training.

They saw blood, engaged in real combat, secured victory, and built confidence.

Then this squadron moved to the outskirts of a town, starting to cooperate with Five Constants T1 for urban siege...

They naturally drew closer to the Rabbit Squad, and with such a level of support, the Rabbit Squad naturally gained a say, and then naturally fought a tough battle.

In counter-terrorism warfare, urban combat is the most difficult...

Those terrorists hiding in the cities could blend in with the local civilians by discarding their guns.

Anyone entering a town had to face dangers from all directions.

Confronted with this situation, the Rabbit Squad did not back down. Joe Ga was able to liberate large cities like Tubruq with a stroke of genius; they had the advantage and didn't find it too difficult to deal with a small town of fewer than 4,000 people.

Chinese are naturally gifted in this domain...

Setting up pots for cooking, distributing supplies, and scattering leaflets...

After a round of psychological warfare, it was time for the special forces to conduct a decapitating strike, followed by another round of the same routine.

Civilians couldn't bear this. Most of them started to give up their homes and leave the town to be checked.

That's when the Special Forces, Sea Hounds, and Martyrs Camp came into play, methodically clearing the buildings in the town inch by inch.

Tossing Gas Grenades at every building they passed, calling in air support at any sign of resistance.

Though there were still casualties, in just a week's time, the terrorists in the town declared their surrender.

All of their leaders were dead. P·B would have each person find at least five local guarantors during the checks.

These were people from the south or Iraq; the tricks they used to blend in and escape into the town were now useless.

There might still be some who slipped through the net, but no one cared about them anymore.

The situation on the front was gradually revealed to the public, with a growing anticipation riding on the tide of victories.

P·B's war had not only garnered the support of the Iraqis and Syrians.

But also, due to people like Princess Amina, Princess Charlene, and others, they had won the support of human rights organizations, women's rights organizations, and humanitarian organizations...

Now, with the dirty bomb incident disclosed, all of America's media had unified their narratives.

Even the black media with past grievances against Joe Ga pinched their noses to call it a 'great war'!

Everyone was waiting for the moment of true victory!

But as people waited, a covert war was ongoing...

A Senator and a State Legislator implicated in the nuclear bomb issue, along with four well-known tycoons, chose to hang themselves in prison due to 'remorse'...

The on-duty prison guards came across a little trouble at home and therefore didn't discover the situation in time.

By the time the ambulance arrived, the bodies were already stiff.

The day after the media disclosed this news, two logistics officials working in the Pentagon, one died in a car accident and the other accidentally drowned in a river while fishing.

On the third day, the Department of Justice announced an investigation into several major military-industrial corporations.

On the fourth day, Aaron was wheeled into a meeting room...

A few hours later, Aaron was wheeled out of the meeting room and lastly, onto a police car.

By the time Aaron was temporarily detained in the prison where the big shots had hanged themselves, a handsome middle-aged man leaped to his death from the rooftop of the building where the meeting had taken place...

At this moment, Aaron, now in prison, took out his mobile phone, looked at a photo sent by his assistant, wheeled toward the window to gaze at the distant sunset, and murmured, "My revenge is complete, I'm about to win...

But why do I always feel that it's not enough?"

With that, Aaron picked up his phone again, browsed through some files, and suddenly gritted his teeth and cursed, "Shit, why does that guy always win so much?

Is being good with a gun that impressive?"

............

At this moment, Joe Ga, who was working in the safe zone, sneezed heavily and then sighed as he looked down at the documents in front of him...

Victory was only the beginning, and there were a multitude of issues to deal with in northern Iraq and Syria.

The problem with humanitarian corridors, security of the oil fields, the conflict between Iraq's major corrupt officials and idealists...

Most importantly, the issue of contracts with the mercenary groups.

ISIS's manpower in Syria was basically decimated...

Of course, they still had some foundation left, but that was no longer Joe Ga's problem.

The Syrian Government Forces—and even the Syrian opposition supported by Turkey—would all seek ways to devour them.

However, the defeat in Syria led most of ISIS's forces to start gathering in northern Iraq, with Mosul becoming their last line of defense.

The group of mercenaries had faced a backfire before, the losses still within an acceptable range.

What now made the mercenaries restless was that America, due to the absence of the dirty bomb threat, began to lose patience with the situation in Mosul.

The aircraft carrier fleet in the Persian Gulf is on the move; in the past two days, American drones have been unusually frequent, along with several Marine Corps reconnaissance troops being deployed to the Mosul Base, accompanied by some Delta Force...

These people's operations are low-profile, yet they seem out of place compared to the mercenaries at the Mosul Base.

This situation is not normal!

Whenever the United States Army arrives somewhere, it always seeks military dominance.

Such a low-profile presence was extremely rare in the past...

The mercenaries, most with a military background, instantly smelled something amiss and began to worry about the business in Mosul.

At times of disarray, they all turned their attention to Joe Ga, seeking valuable information and advice.

Up to now, P·B, as a military contracting firm, has been engaged purely in logistics business in Iraq.

The P·B soldiers stationed in Mosul have never participated in the fighting within the city.

They offer logistics services—perhaps 'logistics' is a broad term, charged at higher rates, but the reality is that it's the Iraqi Government and the mercenaries themselves who dominate the war.

Antar is the representative of P·B in Mosul and an important commander, but she has never overstepped her authority to command the mercenaries.

Joe Ga has been trapped in Syria for so many days, and Antar hasn't attempted to mobilize the mercenaries because she knows it would be futile.

The mercenaries are in business, after all. Of course, some of them are loyal, but the resources they can mobilize come at a cost.

Even if you're the leader, you can't expect your subordinates, hired as mercenaries, to risk their lives in Syria for free.

The mercenaries consider people as 'production materials' and thus can't go against the logic of business.

Joe Ga didn't really mind that the mercenaries didn't respond when he was besieged—it's a sign of maturity not to have emotional expectations from business partners.

Barely collaborators, the mercenaries fulfilled the contract by holding back terrorists in the direction of Mosul, which was already a big help.

Now they want to hear his opinion...

Well...

Joe Ga flipped through another document, a strange smile appearing on his face.

America is preparing to initiate a massive bombing campaign on Mosul with NATO member states...

This is in retaliation for the dirty bomb issue and to mitigate the negative impact of their previous long period of inaction.

Black Guy's term has 2 months left, and he wants to completely solve the ISIS problem before transferring power.

This is also a compromise from Black Guy to the military-industrial complex...

Through Aaron's mediation, the military-industrial complex paid a hefty price to stop the American Government from digging deeper.

But the beast that devours cannot stop; they've reached a backroom deal, several leading arms companies will accept exorbitant fines after the investigation, saving face and lining pockets.

But the money can't just be wasted; they need to recoup it from elsewhere.

These people want to win, not only triumphantly but also to recover losses.

Masses of outdated missiles were stuffed into NATO's arsenal at a high price, to be used to bombard Mosul.

No one cares whether it's necessary or not, they just want to get rid of the junk; once the bombs explode, there'll be no evidence left.

The report states they are new guided missiles worth 150,000 US Dollars each; even if the effects aren't great, just use them all—there's no way to verify it.

But without precision-guided weapons, indiscriminate bombings are likely to lead to a humanitarian crisis.

To completely take Mosul, ground troop support is necessary.

This time the Pentagon wants to take the lead, with 5,000 Marine Corps and 2,000 NATO troops ready to go.

Now they want to take back the ownership of Mosul Military Base, to give those soldiers a place to land.

It cost Joe Ga only 4 million US Dollars to take over four military bases in Iraq.

Now America is offering to rent the bases, including all equipment inside, at the price of 1 million US Dollars a month.

And the Pentagon has offered Joe Ga an exorbitantly priced logistics contract!

Truly exorbitant!

18 US Dollars for a single bullet!

A staggering 600 US Dollars per person per day for meals!

This time nobody's meddling; the only request is that after fulfilling the contract, Joe Ga must deposit 50% of the amount into a designated charity fund.

In return, the White House will help P·B with this contract to secure a tax-exemption clause.

This is almost equivalent to giving away money!

At this moment, Joe Ga realizes that some Americans are treating Mosul as their 'last supper' and they have to gorge themselves.

These are just the profits Joe Ga could gain by cooperating with them, and there are other outrageous benefits...

It gave Joe Ga an extremely profound understanding of the corruption within the United States Army!
