Chapter: 3264

Su Shou Dao listened with skepticism, carefully grasping the sanitary napkin's edge and slowly unfolding it to find that it hadn't been used after all. He then casually stashed the napkin in his own bag.

He didn't care what others thought, he had never used such soft sanitary products since coming to Syria.

The soldier saw him put the sanitary napkin away and looked down on him with disdain, saying, "Alright, I'm tired of talking to you. Get out of here!"

Su Shou Dao was also annoyed and turned his head back towards his quarters, only to be interrupted by a sudden shrill air raid warning.

Su Shou Dao was still very sensitive to the sound of air raid warnings, although he had never experienced war himself. He had often participated in air defense drills in Yanjing, so when he heard this alarm, he immediately asked the soldier, "What's going on? Are we being bombed?"

The soldier was also nervous and replied hastily, "Air raid warnings don't necessarily mean an attack. Our command has regulations that as long as enemy forces are detected within a 30-kilometer radius, we'll sound the air raid warning!"

"Damn it......" Su Shou Dao suddenly panicked, having already forgotten how many dirty words he had spoken today. He only knew that if Hamid's base were to be attacked, he would face the risk of death and would have no one to reason with.

Just then, the soldier's radio crackled with sound, and he immediately picked it up to listen before jumping down from the wall and grabbing Su Shou Dao's clothes, pulling him along as they rushed out. "There are massive government forces 30 kilometers south of the base, estimated to be preparing for battle! Follow me up the mountain!"

Su Shou Dao slapped his forehead, looking gloomy as he said, "Damn it...... I won't go! I'm not going to fight, and what's the point of taking me up the mountain? If bullets don't hit their mark, what if they kill me instead? How would you explain this to our commander?"

The soldier replied quickly, "Who said you have to go fight? I'll take you up the mountain, of course, but it's to hide in the trench on the reverse slope! The commander just issued an order requiring everyone to enter designated trenches within 30 minutes. If you want to stay here and get hit by artillery fire, then be my guest!"

The soldier let go of him and turned around to walk out.

Su Shou Dao suddenly remembered that the reverse slope trench was actually a defensive structure? It would be difficult for artillery shells to hit it, even if they did, they wouldn't be able to penetrate the reinforced concrete and steel beams.

So, if there really were a massive army advancing, it would definitely be safest to hide in the reverse slope trench!

Thinking this, Su Shou Dao quickly caught up, looking embarrassed as he said, "Brother, brother, don't get angry. Can I still follow you?"

At this moment, Hamid was standing on the southern side of the base's high-ground fortifications, using a three-legged high-powered binoculars to gaze southward.

As the distance is already very far at 30 kilometers, ordinary binoculars wouldn't be able to see anything. This kind of high-powered binoculars can only get a rough idea and the distortion caused by the curvature of the earth makes it extremely difficult to look at things.

However, he still managed to see from within the range of his binoculars that a large army was advancing towards him from afar.

He had a hard time understanding, wasn't it just recently that the government army was busy fighting those few larger rebel groups? How could they mobilize so quickly and come over here?

So, he immediately ordered his deputy: "Go, quickly contact the forward scout, prepare to launch an unmanned aerial vehicle, and tell me their numbers and equipment within five minutes!"

"Affirmative, commander!" His deputy immediately turned around and left to go inside to use radio to contact the forward scout.

Very soon, the scout launched several drones they had bought from China.

These ordinary drones that sell for just a few thousand yuan in China were nothing but toys for photography enthusiasts and drone enthusiasts. However, in the Middle East, their strategic value was extremely strong.

Firstly, they could fly high, and with some modifications, they could reach an altitude of over 1,000 meters. The image transmission range could reach nearly 10 kilometers, and the flying speed could reach 60-70 km per hour. The key point is that when the drone's body was just a palm-sized, it would be almost invisible to the naked eye and also inaudible at high altitudes, making it an excellent choice for battlefield reconnaissance.

If facing advanced modern units, these drones wouldn't be of much use; they wouldn't even have time to take off before being discovered and taken down.

But if facing ordinary motorized infantry, they would truly be unstoppable. JrNovels.com
