King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

Joe Ga completed his assignment under the 'escort' of the two old guys, then climbed to an altitude of 600 meters and began to circle over the battlefield.

Wherever there was resistance, a Hellfire would be shot over.

This was also the first time Joe Ga had seen the Congo Ghosts fight in such a way...

From high above, those widely spread Congo Ghosts charging in appeared to be completely irrational.

Unless faced with heavy machine gun interception, those Congo Ghosts wouldn't stop their advance, even when encountering an ambush...

It truly was a bayonet-style gunfight, with the Ghosts rarely firing from more than 100 meters away; most were within 50 meters or even closer at 30 meters.

Upon spotting the enemy, they would accelerate diagonally, fire, roll forward, fire, and usually by then they could get up and continue advancing.

The battle had reached this point, and the aggressively attacking Congo Ghosts had only 6 wounded, who, largely thanks to the protection of bulletproof vests, were mostly lightly injured.

This ferocity was somewhat unreasonable!

And yet, Karman still said they hadn't met his standards...

By this stage, the battle was essentially over, and the three 'birds' seemed to prove themselves by ceaselessly diving and soaring over the battlefield, clearing the way for the Congo Ghosts.

The enemy's last will to resist had been completely crushed. An orderly cover to retreat no longer existed; they began to flee in a mad rush towards the water channels.

The Congo Ghosts started to regroup, guided from above by the airship, not missing a single enemy attempting to survive through hiding, but they didn't have a good way to deal with those who fled into the water channels.

Now was the time to clean up the battlefield; pursuing depleted manpower was simply not feasible.

Just as Poison Scorpion had predicted, some lucky ones would manage to escape, but that didn't matter much anymore.

Those who fled, discarding their weapons and gear, without anything on them, if they managed to make it out of the Congo jungle, then it was truly a stroke of fate.

Joe Ga circled the battlefield for about half an hour. When he saw a Mi-8 helicopter coming from the rear with medical personnel, and several robust nurses loaded the 6 wounded onto the helicopter, he finally felt assured enough to start his journey home...

He escorted the Mi-8 for a while on his way, before separating close to Bangassou.

It was only when Joe Ga landed the plane on the base's runway that he felt a long-lost sense of fatigue.

Leaving the comfort zone of the ground, being in the air made Joe Ga subconsciously tense.

Dive training allowed him to adjust his state as much as possible, but the high stress of being a fighter pilot still tired Joe Ga out a bit.

When the cockpit canopy was opened, Joe Ga got off the plane only to realize his clothes were soaked with sweat.

After taking a towel from Monica and wiping down, Joe Ga turned to Nis, who showed no change of expression, wrapped his arms around her and reached into her clothes to check, and he found that she, despite the lack of expression, was indeed sweating...

After sighing, Joe Ga said contentedly, "Give me some face, at least pretend to pant a bit, so I don't feel so useless."

Nis pinched Joe Ga's tense arm and then said to Monica, "Give your boss a massage, you said you'd trained for it."

As she spoke, Nis looked at Joe Ga and laughed, "I trust you, so I wasn't scared at all, and naturally I wasn't tense.

You're the type who strives for perfection. You get very nervous when you feel you're not up to par.

The performances of Cobra and Archerfish eroded your confidence in your own flying skills..."

Joe Ga knew where his problem lay, he held Nis's face with a forced smile and said, "I know my problem, so you have to believe you're perfect too, otherwise, why would I like you so much?"

Monica, who was just about to showcase her talent on her boss, was caught off guard by the unexpected display of affection and involuntarily rolled her eyes. She was about to take her boss aside for a relaxing moment when Joe Ga's phone suddenly rang...

Joe Ga picked up the phone and answered, "Father Gamo, what's the matter?"

On the other end of the line, Father Gamo spoke in a heavy voice, "Hu Lang, in the jungles of Congo, two small villages along the water were massacred.

Judging by their trail, it looks like they're heading towards Central Africa."

Joe Ga was stunned for a moment, then said darkly, "Are drug traffickers causing trouble now?"

Father Gamo was silent for a moment, then said, "They're probably not drug traffickers. My people found some spent casings during the investigation; they used sophisticated weapons.

Both villages were slaughtered at night; this isn't the drug traffickers' method."

"Night vision, mercenaries..."

Joe Ga mumbled subconsciously, then continued, "Why would they slaughter the villages?"

Father Gamo spoke in a somber tone, "I guess it must be because the villagers stumbled upon their tracks, or perhaps..."

Joe Ga's expression was so dark it was as if water could drip from his face, he said in a deep voice, "Or they're provoking us!"

P·B promised to protect the safety of those around us, and when provoked, we need to send out an attack.

Those people want to drag P·B's most elite forces to the south, to break the blockade in the north."

Upon hearing this, Father Gamo said apologetically, "Wrench, I'm sorry for troubling you again, my people are no match for them, so…"

Joe Ga, feeling somewhat helpless, said, "It's not related to you. Without you, those people would have thought of other ways.

They want to pull P·B's men into the jungle so they can effectively avoid being bombed.

If I ignore them, they will approach Sangha Town, and it will be more troublesome by then."

Thinking this through, Joe Ga added, "Father, P·B will soon enter battle with Setaka in the north, and before the results of the first wave are out tomorrow, I can't leave my post.

You inform all the jungle villages you can, and have them move towards my gold mine area. I will send reinforcements there and provide as much protection as I can for you.@@novelbin@@

Have your people also strengthen patrols. I'll arrange for two helicopters to search and patrol to the south, to intimidate them as much as possible."

Father Gamo sighed and said, "Wrench, it's impossible for the jungle villages to relocate in a short time. I can only..."

Joe Ga could sense Father Gamo's difficulties. The old man, although bad-tempered and sometimes naive, was really a good person...

Considering his own situation, Joe Ga hesitated, then said, "I'll transfer the National Defense Forces from Bangassou over there to strengthen patrols with boats.

If you run into trouble, contact me and I'll have them land nearby.

Three days, at most. Once my Congo Jungle Ghosts return with the supplies, I'll be able to send help your way."

After that, Joe Ga, perhaps feeling that this was still not enough, frowned and said, "Father, you have our radio. Now our technology can support wide-range communication within the jungle.

I will have someone helicopter over a batch of radios for you to distribute.

Keep all the villages on high alert, and call us if there's trouble. Our helicopters will rush to support you immediately."

Having said that, Joe Ga hung up the satellite phone, then gave Nis a tight hug and said, "I've got things to take care of; you go rest. I have a feeling we're going to be very busy for the next few days."

Nis nodded and replied, "You go do what you need to. I'll tell Ayu and the others to organize the equipment room. Starting tomorrow, we'll be on standby 24 hours a day."

As she spoke, Nis straightened Joe Ga's collar and said, "Don't worry too much. They're afraid of us, that's why they want to draw us into the jungle.

We have Dragon Gecko, those Ghosts, and most importantly, we have unmanned airships. As long as they reveal themselves, we can track them."

Upon hearing this, Joe Ga shook his head slightly and said, "The infrared detection system on unmanned airships doesn't work very well in the Congo Jungle unless they make fire for cooking; otherwise, it's hard to spot them.

Starting tomorrow, I'll arrange for a Big Beak Bird equipped with rocket nests and a Scout Pod to perform low-altitude reconnaissance in hopes of scaring them and buying us enough time."

After that, Joe Ga kissed Nis on the face, waved his hand to signal her and Monica to rest, and then found 'Wrench,' who was waiting for other Big Beak Birds to return, and said with a cold expression, "Get those Cluster Bombs ready. For the first bombing run tomorrow, have every Big Beak Bird carry Cluster Bombs. I want to quieten things down north as soon as possible."

'Wrench,' taken aback, understood his boss's stingy nature. Without necessity, the boss would never waste money like this.

Seeing Joe Ga's serious expression, 'Wrench' solemnly nodded and said, "I'll get people on it right away. Boss, are we in trouble?"

Joe Ga nodded and said, "Yeah, we've got trouble..."

Saying this, Joe Ga clenched his fist in irritation and said, "Some people always want to cause trouble for me. This time I need to send a message to everyone.

I'm the biggest damn trouble!

If they touch me, I'll skin them alive and tear out their tendons!"

At that, 'Wrench' chuckled and said, "Then you should send those weirdos from the jungle to do it. I've seen them skin drug traffickers alive…

Those monsters are worse than the traffickers. If you want to scare folks, they're the perfect choice!"

Joe Ga shuddered at the comment, instantly remembering the time Karman took his words 'take the enemies' guts out' literally and did just that...

He hesitated and then said, "I was too harsh just now; let's just kill and be done with it. Don't tell Dragon Gecko or we at P·B will end up as the villain's lair.

I'm the idol to women worldwide right now, skinning and tendon-ripping can't happen to me."

Looking at his 'cowardly' boss, 'Wrench' shook his head slightly and said, "Boss, this isn't up to you. There are demons living in that jungle...

You put those old monsters there; can you really expect them to be nice to everyone?"
