Chapter 53: The So-called Difficulty (Part 1)

The heavy rain finally subsided in the early morning. The dark clouds in the sky finally dissipated a little. Sitting cross-legged by the bonfire in the cave, Harbala, who had just been replaced by Pan Guan and Bao Lei, didn't even bother to take a nap at all. He had already held all the equipment removed from everyone's body and started fiddling with it.

Also sitting cross-legged by the bonfire, Tang Guoming looked at Harbala constantly debugging various components in the communicator and asked Harbala in a low voice: "How is the situation?"

A brand new circuit board was taken out from the package I carried with me, and Halbala used her teeth to tear open the waterproof film on the circuit board: "This rain is too heavy. The communication equipment we carry originally had extremely strong waterproof function, but it could not withstand soaking in water for so long. Coupled with the electromagnetic interference in thunderstorms..."

Before he finished speaking, a rhythmic arc of radio waves flashed on the personal information terminal, which was originally flashing electromagnetic interference arc waves. Just after looking at the rhythmic arc of radio waves, Halbala was overjoyed and grabbed the communicator and hugged it in his ear: "Call the Oasis...Call the Oasis..."

The electromagnetic interference noise in the communicator still exists, but finally Sun Zhao's obviously tired answer can be heard: "This is an oasis! I have locked your position - why are you running to the Imperial Valley?"

After reaching out and taking another pair of communicators, Tang Guoming was about to speak, but Sun Zhao's voice came from the communicators: "I can contact you because I hijacked a meteorological satellite that just happened to fly over you. At most five minutes, I will lose control of this meteorological satellite. So... long story short - have you found the Chinese who need rescue?"

He quickly pressed the button on the communicator and Tang Guoming replied: "The nineteen Chinese have been found, including the injured, and the injured have been dealt with urgently, and the situation is within a controllable range. What news is there in the embassy?"

Sun Zhao's feedback was conveyed extremely quickly: "Oman City is already in anarchy and the embassy is still holding on, but the armed forces have already escorted a group of Chinese people gathered in the embassy to leave and cannot return to the embassy. I have already transmitted to you the road situation and the distribution of armed forces from your location. Even if the contact is interrupted again, you can also use it as a reference for the next action."

Looking up at Harbala who was browsing the information he had just obtained, Tang Guoming spoke again: "We lack the means of transportation to transport everyone now, what are your suggestions?"

Sun Zhao: "The closest tribal settlement to the Imperial Valley currently has at least twelve Toyota pickup trucks and two medium-sized trucks. It is determined from the intercepted satellite pictures that there are about 150 armed personnel stationed in the settlement."

Tang Guoming: "In other words... we have to find a way to get the means of transportation we need from 150 armed personnel?"

Sun Zhao: "And you have to judge as soon as possible - from the satellite pictures, there have been gradually gathering armed personnel near the Emperor Valley. According to my deduction, they are preparing to launch a siege on the Emperor Valley."

Tang Guoming: "Is the time when the siege started?"

Sun Zhao: "At the latest seven hours, a group of tribal armed forces closest to you will launch a tentative attack. The number of people participating in the war is about thirty, and most of the weapons and equipment are eliminated old Russian military equipment. After testing your combat capabilities, they will launch a general attack before dark! If you need to buy time, then I suggest... the tribal armed forces participating in tentative attacks cannot have a living!"

With a gentle raised eyebrows, Tang Guoming unconsciously added a bit of murderous intent to his voice: "Import the direction of the attack?"

Sun Zhao: "The entrance to the valley is directly south, I suggest you..."

Before he finished speaking, a unique whistle of electromagnetic interference came from the communicator. He reached out and pulled down the communicator that was buckled in his ear. Tang Guoming looked up at Harbala, who was sitting by the bonfire: "Is communication interrupted?"

Nodding in annoyance, Halbala responded quickly while fiddling with the various electronic components in her hand, "It should be the meteorological satellite that Sun Zhao hijacked, and was taken back by the owner. However... in just a moment, Sun Zhao had already transmitted the latest version of the satellite map to us, which finally made us lose our eyes. In addition... I modified our communication equipment, at least we have no problem with individual communication between each other."

After catching the personal information terminal that had just been modified by Harbala, Tang Guoming asked Harbala while browsing the latest satellite map: "How far is the communication range?"

After modifying the last communicator, Halbala suddenly stood up: "Under such weather and terrain conditions, there is no guarantee that there will be more... five kilometers should be fine."

He reached out and handed a pair of communicators to Gu Weisu, who was holding a sniper rifle and bowed his head to his rest. Tang Guoming took advantage of the situation and grabbed another pair of communicators to his ears: "Bao Lei and Pan Guan were not moving at the existing sentry. Go to the two of them and send the communication equipment to them, and at the same time strengthen their defense, so as not to be taken advantage of the chaos to seize the retreat. Guo Nu, Lu Xin followed us, ready to deal with the tribal armed forces attacking us at the entrance of the valley directly south. Lao Pei - take good care of everyone. Don't leave the cave before we come back!"

With one after another, everyone acted according to Tang Guoming's instructions. Especially Guo Nu and Lu Xin, who followed Tang Guoming out of the cave, looked eager to try, as if they were extremely expecting the upcoming battle.

Looking back at the eager look on Guo Nu's face, Tang Guoming couldn't help but smile: "It feels good to fight in real guns and live ammunition?"

He nodded excitedly, Guo Nu tightly held the Winchester Defender Shotgun in his hand and said in response: "When he was in the army, he had participated in several large-scale military exercises, but at the end of the day... he was still a bit less meaningful. After practicing for many years, he was abandoned in the place once. I was really a little unwilling to accept it."

He nodded in agreement, and Luxin also said loudly: "With this experience, when I return to China, I will see my comrades from that year. I can really brag!"

He strides beside Tang Guoming. Gu Weisu, holding a sniper rifle, listens to the conversation between Guo Nu and Lu Xin, and suddenly speaks with a cold face: "War is not a house, nor is it an exercise, nor is it a topic of talk that can be used to brag!"

Looking at Gu Weisu, who had strides beyond him and walked towards the commanding heights on the side of the valley ahead, Guo Nu looked at Tang Guoming awkwardly: "Old comrade, I'm not...what was I wrong?"

Carrying a heavy machine gun, Harbala also followed Tang Guoming's footsteps and walked to Guo Nu and Lu Xin: "When a soldier is in war, as long as you are willing to do your best and not be afraid of death, it is not a difficult thing at all. What is really embarrassing... is that you have to watch your brothers around you... This is the most uncomfortable thing in war!"
