King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

Joe Ga held Antar's computer and looked at it for a while. After a few minutes of thought, he nodded at Dorian and said, "You adjust the mortar's orientation. Make sure that when Antar and her team open fire, they can hit the main road to the south."

While speaking, Joe Ga looked at Nis and said seriously, "We don't need you for the attack on the inn. Once the Dingka people make a move, fire all your shells and retreat immediately without any hesitation. Do you understand?"

Nis frowned, wanting to say something, but instinctively nodded after making eye contact with Joe Ga.

Seeing that Nis was very obedient, Joe Ga nodded with satisfaction. Then he looked at Karman, who had been silent all along, and asked, "Dragon Gecko, do you have any suggestions?"

Karman shook his head and replied, "I have no objections. We have eyes; they don't. There's nothing to hesitate about."

As he spoke, Karman paused, glanced at the pitch-dark town, and shook his head, saying, "In fact, we don't need to retreat separately. The Dingka people aren't as brave as you think. In this dark environment, their actions will be slow.

Escaping by vehicle isn't a good idea. The Dingka might pursue us by car, and the guards to the north will definitely intercept us. They have RPGs."

What Karman said wasn't very clear, but Joe Ga understood.

Ambushed on both sides of the southern road were numerous armed pickups hidden in the bushes, ready to rush onto the highway at any moment.

No matter how quick their action was, once the Dingka realized the gunfire had stopped, they would likely pursue by vehicle, traversing the two-kilometer town road and then breach through the blockade set by some northern guards—indeed not the best option.

The landscape around the hill was quite complex, and with darkness, the threat from those armed pickups was relatively small.

On the northeast side of the hill was a semi-dry riverbed, and their trucks were parked on the other side of the river.

If they retreated in this direction, they could effectively avoid pursuit by the Dingka. After reaching the grasslands, Karman was confident about leading everyone to safety.

However, this method had a downside: it demanded extremely high attack speed from Joe Ga and his team, and they could not afford any mistakes, or they might trap everyone in the town, especially since they hadn't brought many mortar shells.

According to Karman's plan, from the beginning of the attack to the retreat, they couldn't exceed ten minutes.

Joe Ga was a novice, so he was happy to listen to everyone's opinions and consciously guided everyone to speak.

Compared to the plan where Antar and Dorian would retreat separately, Karman's method undoubtedly suited the novice Joe Ga better, even if it meant taking some risks.

Nis was the first to nod in agreement with Karman's idea. The young woman said in a cold tone, "We can use the shells to block the road to cover you. In this darkness, the Dingka's pickup trucks won't be able to get close to us. Even if there are those who aren't afraid to die attacking this place, I'm confident I can stop them halfway.

Getting through the town requires traveling through two kilometers of narrow road. And there are also Dingka people to the north of the town. Although not many, the risk is still present…"

Joe Ga ignored Nis and turned his gaze to Dorian.

Dorian shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't mind; it doesn't affect the attack on the inn itself.

Separate retreats have their benefits, and so do concentrated ones.

The former carries certain risks, but it's still acceptable.

The latter demands a lot from us, but as long as we make no mistakes, it will be safer."

"You're the boss, you decide!"

Joe Ga knew what Dorian meant. If he was capable enough, the best and easiest option was definitely to regroup and retreat.

After a few seconds of thought, Joe Ga nodded emphatically and said, "We'll regroup and retreat..."

As he spoke, Joe Ga looked at Antar, and said seriously, "You have a lot of responsibilities. Any problems with that?"

Joe Ga didn't know if it was his imagination, but he thought he saw a glint in Antar's eyes.

The woman was very firm and resolute. "Boss, I won't let you down."

Joe Ga nodded and, looking at the AK74 on Karman's back, said, "Then let's swap weapons. Dorian, give the MP7 to Dragon Gecko, and you use the P90.

Put suppressors on all the guns. This could buy us some time."

As he spoke, Joe Ga looked toward Karman and said, "Dragon Gecko, you okay with that?"

Karman didn't waste words. He took the MP7 from Dorian, felt it for a moment, then nodded and said, "No problem. In close combat, what matters is who is faster. This gun might not be very powerful, but it has plenty of bullets and is fast."

Relieved by Karman's assurance, Joe Ga nodded. Karman was definitely reliable. If he said it was fine, it was fine because his shooting style relied on feel rather than aiming, making him faster than most.

In indoor gunfights, for those with submachine guns, you just needed to be a bit faster than the enemy and hit them first to win.

In movies and TV shows, American special forces fully equipped for a night-time raid often appear. The efficient, quiet killing is thrilling to watch. There must be real teams that operate like this, but Joe Ga and his team were not up against those kinds of opponents.

Seeing Dorian skillfully attach a suppressor to the P90, Joe Ga nodded slightly and said, "Put on the night vision goggles. Owl will lead the way, and we'll move out..."

Dorian quickly took a monocular night vision device seized from a Sea Hound operative and mounted it on his helmet, but when he was ready and looked towards Karman, he was surprised to find the old Dingka soldier pulling out an advanced quad-view night vision device. With Joe Ga's help, he mounted it on his helmet.

Dorian thought nighttime operations were the specialty of special forces, but comparing the equipment, he felt a bit frustrated and said, "GPNVG-18 panoramic night vision goggles, carrying these while traveling is bothersome, but can I get one too?"

Joe Ga grinned and shook his head, "That's a full-time employee's benefit, wait till we've cleared out the folks at the motel, then I'll get you one afterward."
Your journey continues with m v|l-e'm,p y r

Dorian watched Karman, short and stout with the night vision goggles mounted, looking like his head was too big for his body. He smacked his lips and said, "You definitely have to give me one. I like these things."

As he spoke, Dorian flipped down the monocular night vision on his helmet and, as he walked downhill, said, "Boss, don't you need one too?"

Joe Ga fitted his tactical glasses onto his face and smiled, "Don't worry about me. I was born with night vision. Just take care of yourselves."

While Joe Ga spoke, Karman quickly passed Dorian, taking the lead as the vanguard.

The old timer's walk was unique and unimitable. Moreover, he seemed to possess a magical talent for finding the easiest paths through complex terrain.

Watching Karman quickly leading them across the junkyard, an unaccustomed Dorian muttered under his breath, "OK, OK, it's all because of the night vision goggles. As expected, when looking for a boss, it's best to find a generous one."
