Chapter 1778: Become your bulletproof vest

Ye Chen believed most in killing the heart.

The only way to make those extremely vicious people behave is to be more ruthless and evil than them.

The pirates active in the Gulf of Aden have a style no different from the bandits of the past; killing people and seizing goods is their means of survival.

In recent years, these pirates had become increasingly rampant, with the number of hijacking incidents occurring every year constantly growing. Recently, it had reached the point where cargo ships were being attacked almost every day, and they were often successful.

Ye Chen could often see news about pirate robberies, and incidents of them shooting hostages also occurred from time to time, so Ye Chen hoped that the Cataclysmic Front could descend like a god, making those pirates tremble with fear.

Since it was a lawless place, it depended on who was more ruthless.

After several dozen minutes of flight, the plane was about to arrive over Hamid's base.

At this time, the sky in the Middle East was just beginning to brighten.

Borrowing the light of the rising sun, Wan Pojun stared unblinkingly at the several high grounds around Hamid's base below. He had always been curious about what kind of iron-barrel defense Hamid had that could cause the Cataclysmic Front to bury thousands of mercenaries here.

Yet, when he looked out, he discovered that these high grounds, as well as the valley embraced by the high grounds, basically didn't look like a military base; even soldiers were hard to see.

The only large targets he could see were many trucks transporting stones and slag, constantly shuttling at the mountain pass.

Beyond that, he couldn't see anything.

And the less he could see, the more shocked Wan Pojun felt in his heart.

Because this proved that Hamid had already transferred all his strength into the permanent fortifications within the mountain.

Even if an army of tens of thousands attacked, they wouldn't even be able to find where the target was.

Moreover, no one knew how many firepower points were hidden in these mountains, and even less did they know how many weapons, ammunition, and food supplies were stored here.

Just as he was shocked, the helicopter had already flown over Hamid's valley and landed slowly on the flat ground of the valley.

The houses and ruins that were originally in the valley had basically been cleared away, and the entire valley had now basically become a flat piece of land.

And it could be seen that this place had been transformed into a training ground, with playgrounds, shooting ranges, and various obstacle training fields.

Hamid had also been waiting for a long time. Seeing Ye Chen and a Chinese person get off the helicopter together, he immediately walked up and greeted them enthusiastically: "Brother Ye! We meet again!"

After many days of not seeing each other, Hamid was a bit fatter than before; it could be seen that he had been living quite comfortably recently.

Ye Chen laughed and said: "Brother looks to be in a good mood. What good things have you encountered recently?"

Hamid said earnestly: "Not having to fight a war is a good thing. And look, my place here is looking more and more like the real thing. The safer the base is built, the more at ease I feel in my heart."

Ye Chen nodded, introduced Wan Pojun beside him, and said: "Come, Brother, let me introduce you. This is the master of the Cataclysmic Front, Wan Pojun."

After saying that, he said to Wan Pojun: "Pojun, this is Commander Hamid. Your Cataclysmic Front had some friction and conflict with Brother Hamid before, but that is all in the past. From now on, let everyone turn the page completely and turn enemies into friends!"

Wan Pojun stepped forward almost without hesitation, took the initiative to reach out his hand, and said politely: "Commander Hamid, I have long admired your name."

Hamid looked at Wan Pojun, feeling somewhat nervous and intimidated in his heart.

Although he was a bit inflated now, he really wasn't inflated to the point of daring to look down on Wan Pojun.

After all, the Cataclysmic Front had tens of thousands of soldiers and was full of experts. Even if they had lost thousands of soldiers in Hamid's hands due to underestimating the enemy, the strength of the Cataclysmic Front was there, still far stronger than Hamid.

Moreover, Hamid had long heard that there were many experts in the Cataclysmic Front and was very worried that the Cataclysmic Front would come to take revenge on him in the future.

Now that Ye Chen was mediating and wanted him to turn enemies into friends with Wan Pojun, he was naturally ten thousand times willing.

Therefore, he hurriedly shook hands with Wan Pojun and said excitedly: "Hello, Mr. Wan! I have offended you with previous matters, please don't take it to heart..."

Wan Pojun said solemnly: "Commander Hamid, please rest assured. Since Mr. Ye has already said to turn the page completely, I will never entangle myself in it anymore."

Seeing Wan Pojun was so straightforward, and that every word revealed respect for Ye Chen, Hamid couldn't help but feel surprised. He couldn't understand why Wan Pojun respected Ye Chen so much.

Ye Chen smiled slightly at this time and said something shocking: "Brother, Pojun and his Cataclysmic Front have already sworn allegiance to me. From now on, to you, he is one of our own."

Ye Chen's words scared Hamid into a daze!

He had originally thought that Ye Chen had come to mediate this time, but he never dreamed that Wan Pojun and the Cataclysmic Front had already sworn allegiance to Ye Chen.

So he asked subconsciously: "Brother... is this true or false? You aren't joking with me, are you?"

Just when he couldn't believe all this, Wan Pojun also said: "Commander Hamid, Mr. Ye is not joking with you. The Cataclysmic Front has indeed sworn allegiance to Mr. Ye!"

Hamid was horrified, looked at Ye Chen, and asked murmuringly: "Bro... Brother... how on earth did you do it..."

Ye Chen laughed: "We'll talk about that later. When will Sayid arrive?"

Hamid checked the time and replied: "Probably in another ten minutes."

"Good." Ye Chen nodded and said: "Then let's wait for him here."

Ten minutes later, another helicopter landed slowly in the valley.

Sayid, wearing a military uniform, jumped down from the helicopter with big strides. As soon as he saw Ye Chen, he walked up enthusiastically and greeted him: "Hello, Mr. Ye! Finally, we meet again!"

Ye Chen nodded and smiled, exchanged a few pleasantries with him, and then introduced Wan Pojun to him.

Sayid hadn't seen Wan Pojun before either. Suddenly learning that the young man beside Ye Chen was Wan Pojun, he couldn't come back to his senses for a while.

Ye Chen patted Sayid on the shoulder, laughed and said: "The reason I asked you to come for a face-to-face talk this time is that I want to resolve the problems between you and the Cataclysmic Front in one fell swoop, and also provide you with a better choice. Why don't we go to Commander Hamid's conference room to talk in detail?"

"Good!" Sayid agreed hurriedly.

The four of them arrived at the conference room, and Ye Chen went straight to the point and said to Sayid: "Sayid, those fifteen thousand captives of the Cataclysmic Front must be quite a burden and weight for you, right?"

Sayid naturally didn't want to admit this in front of Wan Pojun, so he pretended to be relaxed and said: "Actually, it doesn't matter. We have specially designated a place to imprison them, and everything is in good order."

Ye Chen laughed: "Sayid, here today, in fact, neither I, nor Hamid, nor even Wan Pojun, are your enemies anymore, but your friends."

As he spoke, Ye Chen added: "Since Hamid successfully defended against the attacks of the government forces and the Cataclysmic Front, other opposition armed forces have also begun to vigorously strengthen their defenses. In the future, they are all developing bases in places in the mountains that are easy to defend and hard to attack. It will be very difficult for you to take them down, and you yourselves have no danger to defend. The situation in the future will only become more and more passive."

Sayid's expression remained unchanged, but he was indeed worried about this matter in his heart.

At the moment, both sides were indeed in a stalemate. Originally, this stalemate didn't make the government forces too anxious; after all, they always felt that the other side was in a defensive stage, and even if they had no way to attack, at least they occupied the active position.

However, what happened in another Middle Eastern country some time ago made their backs cold.

That country had just experienced a huge change, and it was precisely the passive side that was fighting guerrilla warfare in the mountains that had achieved the final victory.

This greatly stimulated their nerves, making them suddenly become nervous.

At this time, Ye Chen said solemnly: "Sayid, if you are willing, the Cataclysmic Front can become half an ally of yours in the future."

Sayid asked in surprise: "What is half an ally?"

Ye Chen smiled slightly and explained: "They will become a bulletproof vest on your body. Although they won't participate in your attacks, if you face danger, they will fully assist you in defense and hold off the other side's fatal blow!" ===== CHAPTER 1779 =====
