Strongest Soldier King

Chapter 940: A Small Victory



On the battlefield, a decision often means countless lives, and a wrong decision would only lead to those lives being wasted. Sarazi knew that his foundation was not strong enough and could not afford to waste it, so he hesitated. Luo Zheng noticed Sarazi's hesitation and immediately said, "Actually, you don't need to worry too much. Just send someone to scout and you'll know. However, with Siya Fa's timid personality, he doesn't need to dispatch so many vehicles. He should leave one or two thousand people to protect his own life. Just transporting three thousand people doesn't require so many vehicles."

"Do you mean that Siya Fa might be mobilizing all his forces?" Sarazi asked in surprise.

"I can't make a definite judgment on this. It's just a reasonable deduction. I don't understand Siya Fa; I just heard you say that he is afraid of death. Think about it, wouldn't a person afraid of death keep more people around him? Assuming he leaves two thousand people behind and sends out the other three thousand, would he need nearly a hundred vehicles?" Luo Zheng analyzed.

"That makes sense. Besides, from what I know about Siya Fa, he is a stingy person. He would never send two thousand people to fight against Gai Wafu's one thousand. Gai Wafu has the advantage of terrain and familiarity with the surrounding area. Even if they are caught in a surprise attack, a thousand is enough to cause trouble for Siya Fa. Siya Fa won't allow himself to suffer great losses. Either he doesn't fight, or if he does, he'll certainly deploy a large force to overwhelm in one go, reducing losses while negotiating with Sam Country." Sarazi analyzed, his hesitant gaze gradually firming up.

"Decided?" Luo Zheng smiled.

"Decided. If I notice something wrong, I'll just retreat. My people are driving, and with Siya Fa's convoy of only about a hundred vehicles, all transferred here, the troops left behind can't catch up with us. They wouldn't dare chase indiscriminately in the dark. Even if it's a trap, the losses wouldn't be too big." Sarazi made his decision, his face becoming resolute as he pulled out his phone and went aside to make a call.

Luo Zheng saw Sarazi's swift actions, bearing the appearance of a hero in chaos, and couldn't help but smile approvingly. Such people can only stand firm in troubled times. How far he can go is still uncertain; with Huaxia Country's support and his own abilities, he is definitely a dominant figure in this country, which aligns with Huaxia Country's interests.

Shortly after, Sarazi finished his call and returned. Luo Zheng saw Gai Wafu approaching with his men. That special agent in the black suit had returned, and after a while, Gai Wafu walked over, looking angry, and said, "That bastard said the plan has changed temporarily, and the team will retreat after a half-hour rest and come back another day."

"Nice calculation. This is to confuse us." Sarazi said coldly.

"Explain?" Gai Wafu asked in surprise.

"Their main force is right behind, within half an hour's drive, racing here quickly. Once the main force arrives, it'll be time for a full attack. Also, the snipers of Sam Country's Special Forces have already used the cover of night to flank from both sides. The battle can start at any moment." Sarazi explained.

Gai Wafu's face changed dramatically upon hearing this, secretly thankful that without encountering Sarazi and Luo Zheng, he would have been calculated against. Thinking of this made Gai Wafu furious, and he said angrily, "Bastard, let's see how I'll teach them a lesson. Tell me, how do we fight?"

"No hurry, are the land mines all set?" Luo Zheng asked coldly, looking at the distant enemies, his gaze cold and a murderous aura breaking out as the battle approached.

A repressive killing intent spread around, even the loyal troops on guard nearby felt it and instinctively gripped their guns tightly, watching everywhere with fierce looks. Armed personnel who survived in this chaotic land are not easy to deal with; their technical and tactical skills may not be as good as the well-trained Special Forces, but their fierceness is comparable, willing to fight and risk their lives.

"All deployed." Gai Wafu said coldly, his eyes gleaming fiercely.

"Someone is moving up, should we engage?" Ghost Hand's voice suddenly rang through the earpiece.

Luo Zheng was startled, immediately realizing it must be Sam Country's Special Forces snipers trying to flank from both sides and encircle. He said without hesitation, "Engage, but don't expose too much firepower." The Special Forces of Sam Country are his enemies, as for Siya Fa's men, they belong to Sarazi and Gai Wafu.

"Understood." Ghost Hand, already holding back a bellyful of anger, responded excitedly.

"Rat-tat-tat!" Suddenly, a burst of dense gunfire shattered the wilderness, sounding particularly eerie under the night, drawing everyone's hearts and attention.

Luo Zheng turned his head to look and saw a dozen people firing fiercely at a certain location. He quickly raised his binoculars and saw Ghost Hand rushing forward with a gun, the enemies were suppressed by over a dozen lines of fire and could not lift their heads, unable to fight back at all. Ghost Hand, as swift as a leopard, rushed diagonally and fired fiercely at a hillside.

The gunfire quickly stopped again, and the moonlit wilderness returned to silence, with only the wind gently blowing. In the earpiece, Ghost Hand excitedly said, "Killed two, another one took the chance to run back, should we pursue?"

"No need, quickly adjust the defensive positions. Although this ambush was a success, it also exposed everyone's location, be careful." Luo Zheng joyfully reminded, informing Sarazi and Gai Wafu of the situation.

The two were overjoyed to hear that two Special Forces members had been killed. Sam Country's Special Forces are notoriously tough to deal with, and to eliminate two in this ambush is entirely credited to tactical tactics. Thinking of this, the two were even happier and decided to carry forward this tactic in the future.

Luo Zheng was also in a good mood. Two Special Forces members of Sam Country, and snipers at that, counted as a good interest. He quickly raised his binoculars to look ahead and found that the distant enemies were concealed defensively on the spot and had no intention of retreating, indicating a clear intention to attack. He said to the two, "Tell your men to cooperate well in a while and make a notable start."

The two readily agreed, picked up the walkie-talkie to communicate with their respective teams in the local language. The noteworthy start elevated the team morale tremendously. Luo Zheng was full of confidence and anticipation for the upcoming battle. Winning this battle would completely block this team's retreat. Then, with the two's assistance in the pursuit, victory wasn't impossible.

Thinking of this filled Luo Zheng with power, he calmly watched ahead. If the enemy didn't attack, they would stay put. After all, it was the enemy who should be anxious. Time ticked by second by second, and under the moonlight, the serene mountains exuded an even stronger killing aura, even the crickets that usually chirped at this time were silent.

After a while, Luo Zheng saw a convoy roaring in, the glaring headlights visible from afar, knowing finally that Siya Fa's main force was arriving, the war was about to break out. He couldn't help but say in a low voice, "Brothers, whether we succeed depends on this battle, prepare to fight."
