Chapter 816: You Go First, I'll Guard the Base

He Yuzhu reached the perimeter of the transit station, and upon looking inside, his heart skipped a beat—the defenses were even tighter than he had imagined.

Getting closer, he felt it was even more troublesome.

There were several patrol teams alone, moving back and forth inside and outside the compound, with the interval between each group never exceeding three minutes.

With this kind of density, trying to plant explosives at every vital point was simply as difficult as ascending to heaven.

He squatted in the shadows and pondered for a while, then simply asked in his mind: "System, I want to tunnel into every warehouse of the supply station, how much gold is needed?"

The system began Scanning the camp and quickly provided a number: "Host, there are a total of 10 ammunition depots, 15 supply warehouses, and 6 vehicle warehouses here, totaling 30 locations. Are you sure you want them all?"

"Yes."

"Four tons of gold."

He Yuzhu felt his heart skip a beat. He thought to himself, for the sake of Babylon, let me spend four tons of gold? On what grounds?

The system seemed to see through his thoughts and added unhurriedly: "Host, these warehouses contain a large amount of supplies, and several Warehouses store hundreds of tons of High-explosive Explosives."

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu's eyes immediately lit up.

To tell the truth, the High-explosive Explosives in his own space were indeed running low.

To deal with the group of people behind him, he could not do without a large amount of explosives.

"System, I agree to pay four tons of gold to enter this supply station."

For the time that followed, He Yuzhu moved between the various Warehouses.

In several corners, he discovered over five hundred tons of TNT and C4 High-explosive Explosives, as well as crates of Detonator units.

He did not hesitate to store most of them into his space, and at the same time, he conveniently took away a large amount of medicine, fuel, and rations.

But he was very cautious.

He left a portion in every warehouse without emptying them completely—this way, it would look like they had been destroyed by explosions rather than ransacked.

In this way, his identity would not be exposed.

He gathered all the artillery shells and missiles that were large in volume and inconvenient to take away, piled High-explosive Explosives around them, and installed timing devices.

Before evacuating, he tunneled underneath the camp of the guard soldiers and buried several tons of explosives.

He did this not out of cruelty.

He wanted to make these people feel fear from the bottom of their bones—to let them understand that running to another country to invade really meant they could die there.

After finishing all this, it was almost dawn.

Suddenly, a burst of gunfire came from afar, the direction likely being several miles away.

He Yuzhu knew it was Sadake who had made his move.

He looked down at his watch; it was five minutes to four.

He quickly tunneled out of the supply station and ran toward Sadake's position.

"Boom—"

A series of deafening explosions came from behind him.

The ammunition depots suffered a chain reaction of secondary explosions, flames tearing through the night, as the Warehouses, fuel depots, and ammunition piles all turned into a sea of fire.

This important supply station, which the Multinational Force relied upon, was destroyed in the blink of an eye.

He Yuzhu had no time to watch this fireworks display.

He quickly arrived at the ambush site of Sadake and his men, and as soon as he got there, he found the situation was not looking good.

Sadake and his hundred-plus men were being surrounded and attacked by two or three hundred M Country soldiers.

The enemy's firepower was extremely fierce, with Mortar and Machine Gun fire taking turns, keeping Sadake's group from even lifting their heads.

He Yuzhu could not spare the heartache, immediately tunneling to sneak near the enemy—this move cost him another one hundred kilograms of gold.

He buried a large amount of explosives under the enemy's feet and then quickly retreated to Sadake's side.

Seeing him appear, Sadake shouted excitedly: "Ali, you are amazing! I really didn't expect that you could cause such a big commotion all by yourself!"

He Yuzhu, however, said with a grim face: "Take your men and leave quickly, I will cover the rear here."

Sadake was still hesitating, so He Yuzhu said sternly: "I order you to leave quickly, go now!"

Sadake gritted his teeth, said no more, and led his men to carve out a bloody path, sprinting deep into the desert.

Once they had run far away, He Yuzhu returned fire while pressing the detonation button.

"Boom!"

Those two or three hundred M Country soldiers were instantly blown to pieces, leaving not even a shadow behind.

He Yuzhu turned and ran, his figure soon disappearing into the vast yellow sand.

In the days that followed, He Yuzhu led Sadake to shuttle frequently between the various supply stations of the Multinational Force, succeeding almost every time they struck.

In less than three months, they had successively destroyed more than twenty large and medium-sized supply stations.

This series of strikes directly cut off the supplies for the Multinational Force on the front lines.

After receiving the news, the soldiers of Babylon were greatly encouraged and were no longer afraid of the enemy forces.

They began to methodically surround, cut off, and advance.

Although the Multinational Force had over seventy thousand men, their supplies could not keep up, and their air superiority was gradually weakened, making them no match for these Babylonian soldiers, and they soon suffered a total collapse.

The remnants fled in panic into the territory of Turkey.

Other forces were also successively annihilated by the Ministry.

The first attack on Babylon by the Multinational Force ended in such a disastrous defeat.

However, M Country was clearly unwilling to let it go.

They were sending large reinforcements to West Germany and Turkey, preparing for a second ground operation.

But their losses this time were truly too heavy; just reproducing enough ammunition would take at least three or four months.

Seeing M Country retreating step by step, the Soviet Union immediately felt it was time to pick up a bargain and quickly sent a large number of anti-aircraft missile systems to Babylon.

Once these missiles were in position, Sashi was like a tiger that had grown wings—on their best day, they shot down over twenty M Country aircraft.

For a time, M Country's carrier-based aircraft dared not easily penetrate deep into the heartland of Babylon.

He Yuzhu was not idle on his side either, having rushed to manufacture five more sets of Missile Launchers.

In the days that followed, reports of victory came frequently from Babylon, and they grew more confident the more they fought.

He Yuzhu also enjoyed a rare period of relaxation, holing up in the bunker every day and occasionally pulling out the anti-aircraft Missile Launcher to shoot down some planes.

Sadake, however, was a meticulous man.

The more smoothly the war went, the more he felt a vague sense of worry instead.

He found He Yuzhu and said earnestly, "Ali, you are our great hero. For your safety, I do not want you to stay here anymore. I hope you will go to another country."

He Yuzhu was stunned: "Why?"

"I am afraid M Country will be driven to desperation and suddenly drop a Big Mushroom."

"If I leave, your safety won't be guaranteed either," He Yuzhu said.

Sadake smiled: "Ali, with you here, we in Babylon can defeat the enemy. Without you, relying on us alone won't work. So we must protect you like a spark."

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu felt a sting in his nose, and tears almost fell.

He patted Sadake on the shoulder: "Brother, rest assured, I won't be idle even after I leave. I will wander around the perimeter and strive to blow up a few of their aircraft carriers."

The two agreed on a meeting place for one month later.

He Yuzhu quietly slipped out of Babylon and set off on the road to find those aircraft carriers.
