Soldiers Assault: Starting from the 7th Steel Company

Chapter 147 The two actually look so alike?

The key areas worldwide where drugs are rampant include the following:

The Golden Triangle: Located at the border of Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos, the Golden Triangle region is ideal for corn cultivation due to its hot climate, abundant rainfall, and fertile soil. The Golden Triangle has long been one of the world's most important corn-producing areas.

The Golden Crescent: Located at the border of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iran, it is named for its crescent shape. The Golden Crescent region became the world's largest producer of opium in the late 20th century.

The Silver Triangle: Located in Latin America, including Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, and Brazil, these countries surround the Andes Mountains and the Amazon region and are the world's largest producer of cocaine and drugs.

He was able to stand out from so many of Chatchai's adopted sons and be appointed as Chatchai's representative in the important region of South America because of his intelligence, superb skills, and of course, his ruthless personality.

Previously, Santos and his team were determined to retrieve the drugs seized by the police. He offered advice and strategies, which led to a "classic" battle in which the drug traffickers armed themselves and killed the police.

Unexpectedly, these guys got cocky and thought the police were nothing special. Kunji was speechless at the brainlessness of these thugs.

“We’ve already gained a lot from our previous operations, so it’s best to stop while we’re ahead. Although Venezuela and the United States are at odds, so they won’t send SEALs directly, other countries’ elite forces might still come. Even if they don’t, if the Venezuelan military comes directly, we definitely won’t be able to stop them!”

“Mr. Kunji,” Santos’s men still showed him some respect, given Chatchai’s influence in the area and Kunji’s role in strategizing for the gang.

"You said before that we chose Venezuela instead of our own country because the United States wouldn't interfere. Now that we have Z from the United States, they're even less likely to make a move. After all, in the entire Americas, which country would dare to mess with the United States?"

One of his subordinates proudly stated his opinion.

Kunji suppressed his anger and continued to patiently explain, "Indeed, some people are hesitant to act rashly, but when it comes to the dignity and interests of the nation, these things are insignificant!"

He walked solemnly up to Santos.

"If they launch a coercive attack and wipe us all out, leaving no one alive, and afterwards claim that we cruelly murdered the people, and that they were just avenging America, how should we respond? Oh right, by then we'll all be gone."

Santos was a notorious drug lord in Mexico, where drug trafficking was rampant and various private armed groups were emerging one after another. He carved out his place in this bloody and fierce struggle.

Now he has territory, money, and armed forces; he's no longer the timid, drug-delivering lackey he once was.

So after Kunji's incisive analysis, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

It's really too chaotic here. I wiped out an elite special forces team this time, which will definitely enrage the Venezuelan government forces. They might actually do what Kuni said about "destroying the evidence".

After all, they don't need to care too much about America's opinion.

“Mr. Kunji is right. We should withdraw. Our goods have already been shipped out, and we've achieved our goal of distracting the Venezuelan police. Once we're back in Mexico, we'll be completely safe. There's no need to fight to the death here!”

Seeing that Santos had finally come to his senses, Kunji breathed a sigh of relief. This guy was teachable!
Unexpectedly at this moment,

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

Several small explosions occurred around them, followed by intense gunfire.

"What's going on? The government troops have attacked?" Santos's men were terrified; their resolve to fight to the death had vanished.

"Bullshit!" Kunji was disgusted with Santos's bunch of simple-minded, muscle-bound guys. "If it were a government army attacking, there would be air support! And they're also wary of this location. Don't forget, there's an oil depot here! I estimate it's probably a small-scale raid."

"That's right, you guys go out and take men to wipe them out!" Santos felt reassured when he heard that it wasn't the main force of the government army, and immediately ordered his men to fight back.

It was Chen Jiang and his men who launched the surprise attack.
When they passed through the valley, Santos and his men did not completely clean up their weapons and ammunition, so they were given some supplies. They not only got a lot of bullets, but also two RPGs, which were good stuff!
Many underdeveloped countries' armies have risen to prominence thanks to this thing; if used properly, it can definitely play a huge role.

As Chen Jiang had predicted, the bandits believed that Chen Jiang and his men had been severely injured and were unlikely to launch an attack, so the defenses here were very lax, and the limited number of armed personnel had all returned to their stronghold.

This allowed Chen Jiang and his group of six to easily approach their target location.

Upon arrival, these elite warriors put their expertise to good use, and with Chen Jiang's added advantage, they quickly grasped the situation.

"There were 37 people in total. Ten of them were guards Z, ten were guarding the oil depot, and the rest were resting in the warehouse in the middle."

"There are 17 hostages in total, including 10 from the United States, 3 from South Korea, and 4 from Japan."

"The weapons and equipment include 3 RPGs, and the rest are mostly AK47 assault rifles, which are powerful. Person Z is locked in the outermost warehouse, while the oil depot is in the innermost part, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack."

Everyone was astonished to hear how accurate the intelligence Chen Jiang brought back was.

Because the intelligence they obtained through reconnaissance was rather vague, while Chen Jiang not only had precise figures, but also knew exactly which country they were from.
Chen Jiang could only explain that he had previously worked in the most famous reconnaissance company and learned a lot of skills there!
This made everyone exclaim: The great Eastern power is indeed extraordinary!

Michael frowned as he heard this summary of information.

If they hadn't suffered any losses, they could still fight this battle, but now they only have 6 men left, and Royce and Johnson are a bit injured. How can they fight like this?
"It's alright, we have two RPGs, we're confident we can win," Chen Jiang said calmly.

"What's the use of these things? They're not missiles. Besides, even if they were missiles, there's an oil depot inside. We still have to be careful not to blow up the oil depot."

Chen Jiang felt a wave of disdain. At first, they were so arrogant, but now they're so afraid of everything. This isn't China, there are no compatriots here, what's there to worry about?

"Lieutenant Michael, may I ask you a question?"

"What?" Michael looked bewildered.

"Do you want credit, or the lives of those people?"

Michael was somewhat confused by Chen Jiang's question. How did the two become a choice between two options?

"Doesn't saving person Z also earn merit? What's the difference?"

Chen Jiang smiled slightly, "It's very simple. Given the current situation, if we want to launch a direct attack, we can only wait for the main force. As for a strategic attack, we lack the strength! Moreover, they have two cards in their hand, while we have none, so we will most likely fail. You should know very well what awaits you if you go back after leading your team through the valley to victory."

Michael felt very guilty after hearing what he said. If he hadn't been desperate, he would have retreated long ago.

"Yes, I can only win, I can't afford to lose!"

"Good! Congratulations, you've chosen a smooth road! My idea is to directly attack the gasoline barrels in the oil depot with RPGs!"

"what?"

Even Wu Zhe, who was very familiar with Chen Jiang's audacity, was shocked by his crazy behavior. As for Michael, he was completely dumbfounded.

If others find out about this, they'll definitely be court-martialed!
"Heh, we used the bandits' RPGs, and then we wiped out all the bandits. Who can prove that we did it afterwards?"

Chen Jiang had only one thought: those people inside were all bad news, so what was the point of promoting international humanitarian aid spirit?
Dreaming!
Going to their deaths like this, for the sake of their compatriots, is understandable, but aren't there any Chinese people among them?

"Wait, even if all the bandits are killed, what about Z?" Johnson asked, puzzled.

"The bandits were utterly depraved. Under unfavorable circumstances, they actually used an RPG to detonate the oil depot, resulting in the tragic deaths of all Z. We express our deepest condolences and deepest regret."

Hearing Chen Jiang speak so seriously, Michael felt a chill run down his spine. This guy was terrifying; he had actually offended him before.

You must be more careful from now on.

"This matter concerns the life, death, honor, and disgrace of all of us. We must all make this decision together. Success will bring us honor, while failure will leave us with eternal infamy."

Chen Jiang understood, of course, that it was unreliable to expect these foreigners to uphold morality and righteousness. Only by binding everyone together, sharing both prosperity and adversity, could an unbreakable alliance be built.

If questioned afterward, their stories will be consistent.

It has to be said that Chen Jiang's words deeply touched the hearts of the other four. Although everyone was wiped out and the operation was somewhat tainted, they had at least eliminated so many enemies, which could be considered as avenging the dead.

They will return to their posts to receive awards and promotions.

Forget it, there aren't any of my compatriots here anyway, let's do it!
"Chen Jiang, you're right, I'm willing to work for you!"

"Okay, done!"

"Done!"

"Done!"

Everyone expressed their opinions one after another, but Wu Zhe alone hesitated.

After all, there are dozens of lives lost inside.

Especially people from the United States, which is the most powerful country in the world. Won't they take their anger out on their own country afterward?
He had to be cautious.

Chen Jiang, however, seemed to have seen through Wu Zhe's concerns long ago. He patted Wu Zhe on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, brother. Does he, representing only one country, dare to be an enemy of all the countries in the world?"

The meaning is obvious: he dragged Michael and the others into the group for this very purpose; otherwise, the two of them could have finished the job themselves.

Michael and his team represent European military powers, and while the United States is powerful, it must also consider the implications of this.

Besides, all the evidence proves that the bandits were desperate, so what is there to worry about?

Wu Zhe was already very intelligent, but he had been too concerned and confused. After hearing what Chen Jiang said, he immediately understood.

He had long disliked these countries, and this was just the right opportunity.
“Okay, let’s do it!” Wu Zhe was the last one to join in.

Now that we've reached a consensus, the rest becomes much easier.

They first sneaked into the oil depot and silently took out several sentries. If they could resolve the situation smoothly, Michael and his men wouldn't want to cover up the crime.

With so many bandits, how could the operation go so smoothly?

Sure enough, someone spotted them and opened fire.

Continuing to conceal their whereabouts was pointless. According to Chen Jiang's previous plan, they wanted to create the illusion that the vanguard of the government army had arrived, in order to lure the bandits out.

Take out some of them first, then use RPGs. Otherwise, it doesn't make logical sense. Why would they detonate the oil depot if they weren't in dire straits?

Chen Jiang's marksmanship was extremely cunning; he focused his fire on the enemy's heavy firepower.

His ability to sense distance, combined with his honed marksmanship, allowed him to easily hit targets 200 meters away without using a scope. Taking down bandits carrying RPGs was like cutting melons and vegetables; eventually, these guys all knew that carrying those things meant certain death, and no one dared to touch them anymore.

When Santos heard about the battle outside, his face turned as black as charcoal.

Didn't we agree we wouldn't dare fight them? He has his most valuable asset, Z!
Why is this situation different from what I expected?
He sent all the men he could to the front lines, but those who returned wounded said that the government forces' firepower was extremely fierce and they couldn't hold out.

"Damn it, Quincy, I regret not listening to you!" He regretted it now. Quincy had advised him to return to Mexico a long time ago, but he didn't expect the government troops to arrive so soon.
Huh? Where's Kunji?
Damn it, this kid actually ran away?

Without Quincy's strategist, Santos was even more lost. He was fierce but not very intelligent. Quincy used to give him advice on important matters in P, but now his strategist had run away.

"Pass on my order: bring Z here! Let's see if they dare to fire again!" Santos hardened his heart and decided to fight to the death.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, something terrifying happened: the oil depot behind him exploded first.

The explosion triggered a series of explosions of oil in the surrounding area, eventually creating a massive shockwave. Santos and his group, along with Z and the others, all vanished completely within a towering mushroom cloud.

Chen Jiang and his men had already found cover, but even so, they were still buzzing from the huge explosion.

It was long after the explosion that they dared to stand up.

Originally, they were supposed to go in and clean up the battlefield, but looking at the scene now, is there still a battlefield? It's all turned to ashes!

"Chen Jiang, someone's here!"

Michael had a sharp eye; he was genuinely afraid of finding any survivors, so he looked very carefully and actually managed to spot a wriggling survivor.

Gypsy had already made up his mind; since he was going to do it anyway, he might as well kill them all!
So he immediately planned to shoot and kill the other man.

"and many more!"

Unexpectedly, Michael quickly stopped him.

Gypsy looked at him with some confusion, not understanding why he wouldn't let her eliminate the threat completely.

Michael walked up to the other person and wiped their face a few times with a handkerchief. Everyone was stunned.
This guy looks so much like Chen Jiang?
