they likely lay on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Gao Yang didn’t know why the poachers sent the vehicle away, he was sure it wasn’t for anything good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang helplessly watched the vehicle disappear into the distance before he began to reassess his battle plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang hadn’t noticed any radios or satellite phones with the poachers, but he felt that their sending someone away by car was most likely to call for backup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, the poachers should have left together, not sending just two and leaving twenty or so behind—unless they planned to kill him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, they should all have left together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things were getting complicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this Nuer United Front could bring in a lot of reinforcements, staying here seemed rather like courting death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he was on the plains where both the Nuer people and the Akuri tribe roamed; even if the Nuer couldn’t track as well as the Akuri, they weren’t completely blind to trails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he ended up being cornered, it could be bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But leaving directly was not something Gao Yang was willing to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what, these poachers were the direct murderers of the Akuri tribe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were to leave now, finding the Nuer United Front might be doable, but finding these direct murderers again would be difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang checked the position of the sun, and his brows furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The setting sun was obscured by some clouds, a sign that it might rain tonight, likely a thunderstorm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thunderstorm would help him approach the enemy, but it would also make it difficult to spot hidden enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, after the rain, he would leave tracks more easily and could be chased down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed things were turning unfavorable, but thinking of his unfulfilled vengeance, Gao Yang couldn’t make himself leave immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hatred can prevent one from making rational decisions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang understood this and knew he was playing with fire, but he ultimately decided not to leave yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as he had room to maneuver, he’d stay, refusing to go without taking down all his enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surprise counter-attack at night would go ahead, and it had to start earlier to avoid the poachers’ reinforcements arriving in time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, however, it was time for him to call for backup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To save battery power and to avoid the deadly situation of having a call come in while he was approaching the enemy stealthily, Gao Yang’s satellite phone had been turned off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took the satellite phone out of his backpack and called Antoncel immediately after turning the phone on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Antoncel picked up, Gao Yang said urgently, “Is Toad with you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Get him on the phone, fast!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s not with me, but one moment,” Antoncel replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief moment, Li Jinfang took the call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Li Jinfang responded, Gao Yang hurriedly said, “Jinfang, I’m in trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come support me, bring a full set of combat gear, especially more ammunition for me, big trouble!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jinfang’s voice tensed up as well, saying urgently, “Tell me your position, and what’s your current situation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What happened?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang sighed, “I’m on the grasslands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My people from the tribe have all been killed, not one left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You know, they were like family to me, no, they are my family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I won’t rest until I avenge them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m facing about thirty men now, all from a faction known as the Nuer United Front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone drove away, and I think they’ve gone for help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can evacuate at any time, but I haven’t finished taking my revenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have to stay and watch these people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can’t just leave.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood, just hold on;

we’ll wipe them out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no need for pleasantries with Li Jinfang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang pulled out his GPS, gave Li Jinfang his coordinates, and said in a deep voice, “Remember, rather than arriving early without full gear, make sure to bring all the combat equipment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can’t buy what you’ll need after you get to Malakal; we must ensure we have an absolute equipment advantage.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Got it, I’ll ensure an absolute equipment advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll head there as fast as I can.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m turning on my satellite phone now;
