Chapter 157: Ending Aleppo
The base also reacted quickly to the situation reported by Xu Ziling, and on the second day, they contacted Xu Ziling and asked them to continue to act according to their original plan, and at the same time, another team will be sent to enter Syria in the name of dealing with terrorists, which can be regarded as formal cooperation with the Syrian government army to jointly fight terrorists, of course, whether there is other meaning in this is unknown.
That is, a few hours after Xu Ziling and the others received this instruction, the Celestial Empire announced in the media that it would cooperate with the Syrian government army in counter-terrorism, and sent a team of about 20 people to Syria to immediately set off and enter Syria. It also claimed that the personnel sent by the Celestial Empire in the past were limited to cooperation with government forces in matters related to counter-terrorism, and did not cooperate in other areas in the military field.
Although the statement says so, no matter who knows, it is not that simple. As soon as this news was issued, it caused an international uproar. However, these are all things that others care about, Xu Ziling and they got such news, but they didn't hear about it, all they cared about was to complete the task as soon as possible and find trouble with the "temple" as soon as possible.
Although the city of Aleppo is not very large, the urban environment is complex, and it is not easy to drive out all the forces of the free army in a city. Since the base asked them to restart, Xu Ziling and the others immediately began to sweep the city.
They still acted as mercenaries, either alone or with government forces, and participated in one exchange of fire after another in the city. And as time passed, in the city of Aleppo, both the government army and the free army knew that a very powerful sniper appeared on the side of the government army.
The Free Army had lost a squad of men and horses, and after they observed the battlefield, they were sure that there was a sniper on the side of the government army, but they didn't take it to heart, because their sniper was originally a third-rate level, and it was not surprising that they were killed by a sniper, and it was reasonable for a pair of centaurs to be captured under the threat of a sniper. So they didn't pay attention to it.
But when a few more squads were captured or annihilated, the Free Army finally paid attention to it, but at this time, there were already some rumors about this sniper in the Free Army, and in order to find out about this matter, the Free Army sent special scouts to investigate the matter.
To say that the person who came to investigate was also smart, following their men and horses a few kilometers away, to find a high ground to observe, and since the first time, Xu Ziling began to change his tactics, because there are lions, he has long known where there will be a free army, in order not to waste time, he chose a high ground a few kilometers away to carry out his sniping. And the scouts of the Free Army, where would they have thought that there were snipers for several kilometers, so they followed the team several times, only to see their people fall one by one, or were captured, and they didn't even see the shadow of Xu Ziling.
But as soon as they went back and reported it, it gradually spread in the Free Army that the sniper had come and gone without a trace.
They rumored that this sniper had a large-caliber sniper rifle in his hand, and his signature was a headshot, whether it was a car or a person, as long as he saw it, he did not run. Every time he appeared in a place, then the free army in that place did not run at all, either he was headshot or captured. Such rumors also made the entire Free Army panic for a while. Although there are people who are not afraid of death, but when you encounter such a sniper, you don't even know how to die, and you are too aggrieved to die, even those who are not afraid of death are unwilling.
In this way, after half a month, the free army no longer came forward one by one, and the government army also took this opportunity to advance. As soon as the government army advanced, the free army had to retreat, and it was in such a ridiculous situation that the most rearly government army actually regained the whole of Aleppo without a single soldier.
Because there is a team of twenty people to deal with terrorists on the surface, Xu Ziling's task is not so urgent, so they are looking for "DT" elements while completing their mercenary tasks, anyway, they will fight when they see the free army, and because Xu Ziling often snipes alone, as long as the lion can distinguish that they have tattoos on their bodies or the characters on the list, he simply does not leave them alive. It is precisely in this way that his reputation has become famous, so that people on both sides know that there is such a "butcher" sniper, saying that everywhere he goes, there are chickens and dogs.
Because Aleppo is an important city in Syria, there are also the most 300 terrorists here, about 100 people, and about 30 of them died in Xu Ziling's early sniping, Yang Kaiming and a few of them also killed 20, and the rest saw that the situation was not right and withdrew from Aleppo with the free army.
When Xu Ziling got these news, he was also quite helpless, and he only wanted to kill those people quickly so that he could find trouble with the "temple", and he didn't think about anything else at all. By the time he found out that he had killed too hard, the Free Army had already hidden one by one and stopped coming forward.
Yang Kaiming and the others didn't expect such a situation, but things have happened, and there is no possibility of change, so they can only accept it calmly. Although they did not wipe out the "DT" elements they were looking for, they also knocked out half of their strength in Aleppo, which was a good result overall.
For this result, there is no one happier than Assad, because although these are all because of Xu Ziling, the credit is on his head. During Xu Ziling's time, the government army and Xu Ziling killed at least 300 free troops and captured more than 500 prisoners, of course, this is not the reason why he was the happiest, he was most happy that the free army silently withdrew from Aleppo after the most lu, so that they seized control of the city without a single shot.
Control of a significant city, one can imagine how much this will help Assad's reputation and future. So in these days, every day is full of smiles, no matter who you see in the barracks, they are all smiling, and they are also enthusiastic about Xu Ziling and the others, and they can't be more enthusiastic.
