King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

Chapter 498 Drone



Feeling annoyed, Joe Ga hurried downstairs, only to witness a bizarre spectacle in the CIA's office.

Explosions were happening intermittently on the streets of Benghazi, with anti-tank missiles fired from above covering the passage of three vehicles through the streets.

Seeing this, Joe Ga angrily grabbed Eric by the arm and cursed, "It's Hellfire, are your drones starting to move?

FUCK, get them over here, we're about to be in big trouble."

Eric shook his head with a strange expression and said, "It's not our drones, nor is it any NATO country's drones..."

Joe Ga paused for a moment and then said incredulously, "Then whose the hell are they? The ambassador's own reinforcement troops?"

Eric shook his head bitterly and said, "Boss, it's the Winged Dragon drone from the National Army, sold to them by the Chinese. They were only delivered last week.

Now the National Army is refusing all countries' air forces near Benghazi, they're covering the ambassador's evacuation."

Joe Ga paused again, then incredulously said, "No wonder Mr. Chen managed to secure the gas field, so the big business is here..."

Just as Joe Ga was expressing his admiration, suddenly, a fireball appeared on the screen and then a drone fell from the sky...

"Shit, it's an anti-air missile, an anti-air missile shot down the drone..."

A CIA staffer cried out in shock, and then to everyone's amazement, several streaks of light reappeared in the sky, three missiles hitting the location of the anti-air missile launch, causing a huge explosion.

"There's more, there are more drones, sir, we are saved..."

Joe Ga, seeing the strange look in Eric's eyes, waved his hand and said, "What the fuck are you looking at me for? I'm not with them..."

Eric, looking helpless, said, "Boss, the drones were delivered just last week, the ones controlling them must be the people from the Chinese arms company, you are... you know..."

Joe Ga felt a mix of pride and depression inside...

Because he was working with a bunch of American spies, if those drone operators found out, he couldn't escape being called a second-generation traitor.

Just as Joe Ga was feeling conflicted about what to say, Mr. Chen called his cell phone...

"Xiao Qiao, I heard you're in Libya, how are things on your end?"

Hearing Mr. Chen's voice, Joe Ga anxiously said, "I'm near Benghazi, is everything okay on your side?"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen excitedly said, "It's all good, it's all good, fortunately you sent people over in advance, several groups that wanted to loot were driven off."

While speaking, Mr. Chen hesitated for a moment, then said, "Xiao Qiao, I'm safe here, but I want to discuss something with you."

Joe Ga curiously asked, "What is it?"

Mr. Chen a bit embarrassedly said, "Xiao Qiao, the head office has issued an evacuation order, but as you know we don't have any diplomatic personnel here, they want us to rally ourselves and then head to the Egyptian border, where vehicles and personnel are urgently being dispatched to pick us up."

Joe Ga frowned and said, "Ridiculous orders! Traveling from here to the Egyptian border requires crossing regions controlled by Al-Qaeda.

"Don't move, send me your ground data there, I'll come over to establish a defensive line, then I'll send planes to evacuate you."

On hearing this, Mr. Chen responded, "No can do, Xiao Qiao, 50 kilometers to the east there are 86 Chinese workers trapped.

The Libyan National Army is clashing with terrorists in Benghazi and has no resources to rescue them, only my place here has some strength, so the head office has assigned me the task of rescuing them.

They are our own people, I can't stand by and let them die, but rest assured, there won't be too much danger, we have drones for support...

Just now they made a blast, and a single missile drove off several hundred men."

Joe Ga knew that Mr. Chen was not being entirely truthful, how could such a political task be assigned to the head of a state-owned company?

But this was not the time to quibble over such matters, he understood that Mr. Chen wanted to borrow his troops, hoping that the Xiao Hei team he arranged would escort them eastward, pick up those workers and break through the blockade to enter the Egyptian border.

This situation couldn't be left to them to handle recklessly, Al-Qaeda had started a major counter-offensive, and the east was in chaos.

Mr. Chen's group consisted of dozens of people, with only around 20 personnel from P·B handling security; they were too large a target and would certainly not avoid terrorist interdiction while on the road.

If it were all Chinese workers, it might actually be easier, but a group of Chinese leading several dozen Xiao Hei security guards wouldn't work, engagement was inevitable.

Even drone cover would be useless, the road was too damn dangerous.

"No, don't move, one drone isn't enough to solve the problem, I'll figure something out..."

On hearing this, Mr. Chen on the other end of the phone said anxiously, "That's not going to work, Xiao Qiao, they can't hold out much longer, they have been robbed several times already, if they run into terrorists, then..."

As he spoke, the phone was taken over by someone else, with the very steady voice of a man saying, "Hello, President Qiao, this is Li Weiguo from AVIC. I understand your concerns, but there are nearly a hundred compatriots trapped to the east, and I've received a request from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so I hope you can consider..."

Joe Ga wasn't very fond of hearing platitudes, but he was willing to save people…

"You first tell me, how long can the drone last?"

"We delivered 6 Winged Dragon drones this time, along with 200 Red Arrow 7 anti-tank missiles. After coordination, the National Army agreed to let us use one to ensure the safety of our compatriots.

I only need manpower now, and I can enter the east to bring people out…"

Having heard this, Joe Ga shook his head and said, "You're not trying to bring people out, you're trying to break through with them.

Can 20 security personnel and a drone with only 8 munitions protect more than a hundred people through a distance of nearly 600 kilometers?"

As he spoke, Joe Ga looked at a group of CIA staff who were at their wits' end, and hesitated before saying into the phone, "I'm only 20 kilometers away from you, have your drone come over to cover me, and I'll lead people to meet up with you.

I have more than thirty people here, if we must fight our way through, then let's be fully prepared before we do it…"

The person on the other side of the phone was silent for a moment, then said, "Wait for me, I'll report this…"

After hanging up the phone, Joe Ga ignored Eric's curious gaze. He found Antar and asked, "How many Springblades do we still have?"

Antar definitively said, "We still have 8, boss, are we going to break out?"

Joe Ga nodded his head, pressed the communicator, and said, "Dragon Gecko, we're going to the gas field, is that direction safe?"

Karman quickly said, "If you can't shake off those people to the south, it's not safe for you to go anywhere."

As he spoke, Karman paused for a moment then said, "I'm trying to get close to them, perhaps I can cause them a bit of trouble."

Upon hearing this, Joe Ga said decisively, "No need, don't get close to them, head to the highway and wait for us, I'll find a way to break out on my own."

After speaking, Joe Ga found Eric, and said, "Has your ambassador made it out yet?

We're leaving in 45 minutes, if he hasn't arrived by then we won't wait for him."

Eric was stunned for a moment, then immediately signaled to a technician to start locating the ambassador's phone. Soon, the technician responded…

"Boss, the ambassador and his people have already broken out of the embassy; 'Triple Tian Peng' has suffered severe losses, and they only have two vehicles left now.

But they're just one more intersection away from breaking out of the combat zone!"

As he spoke, the technician excitedly cried out, "Boss, why can't we call our own drones?"

Eric's heart was filled with frustration that he could not voice...

Harlotte and his group were too ruthless; using the ambassador and chemical weapon materials as bargaining chips hadn't persuaded them to intervene. Now, Haftar of the National Army, with the support of China's Winged Dragon, firmly refused NATO's air force, giving them even more reason to reject coming to help.

Facing the naive questioning of a young subordinate, the normally stern Eric lost his control and swore, "Because no one gives a damn about us, FUCK, because we are insignificant, FUCK, do you fucking understand now?

Do as I say, and don't fucking say another word, or I'll fucking throw you out, FUCK YOU!!!"

Having said that, Eric looked at the people staring dumbly at him and yelled, "What the fuck are you looking at me for? Leave two people here, the rest of you go pack your stuff, or there won't be a seat for you in the car..."

Joe Ga looked at the screen behind the tearful young man who'd been scolded; on it, two green dots were accelerating non-stop.

Calculating the time it would take for them to arrive, Joe Ga nodded to Eric and said, "I will launch a breakout in 45 minutes and then take you all through.

Make sure your people and that ambassador follow my instructions, otherwise, I can't guarantee their safety."

Eric suddenly became a bit anxious and said, "Why the rush to retreat? Can't we hold this place?"

Joe Ga shook his head and said, "I've received a new assignment. I will take you to the China gas field to meet up with the people there, then head east into the Egyptian border."

Eric calculated the route and said in disbelief, "The whole east is in chaos right now, it's all al-Qaeda territory, you want to fight your way through?" Experience exclusive tales on My Virtual Library Empire

Joe Ga nodded and said, "There are nearly a hundred Chinese workers trapped there; I cannot stand by and do nothing."

Then Joe Ga looked at Eric and said, "If you're scared, once we get there and resupply food, you can have the 'Triple Tian Peng' escort you south.

As long as you can enter Chad, I can also guarantee your safety."

Eric shook his head decisively and said, "No, I'm going with you.

But have you thought about the possibility that your efforts to help might actually bring danger to those people? The chemical weapon materials are hidden in the small lake, and if al-Qaeda can't get their hands on those materials, they'll go mad!"

Joe Ga pursed his lips, shook his head, and said, "An old buddy of mine said something; if all the enemies are dead, there's no more war..."

As he spoke, Joe Ga pressed the communicator and said, "Spurs, Orange Cat, there are twelve Cloud Bombs in my vehicle, take them all out..."
