In this part of the Middle East, there seems to be no difference between surrender and suicide, and perhaps the latter has the benefit of having the option to die.

Seeing that the rebels were still resisting, the armed men in civilian attire did not hesitate at all, and threw two or three grenades directly through the driver's entrance and exit with the hatch closed, followed by several muffled explosions in succession.

A few grenades in a tank with a small space are not at all uncomfortable.

Once the grenade explodes, the sudden shock wave will reverberate in the tank cabin, and even if the people in the car are not injured to death by the fragments, they will bleed and die on the spot, and this effect is similar to being detonated by a 155 mm grenade at close range.

The explosion of a grenade like a stuffy canister basically announced the end of this ambush battle.

Standing on the streets of the suburbs of Mayadin, where the smoke of gunpowder and the wind and sand were still blowing, smelling the slightest smell of gunpowder and blood in the air, Second Lieutenant Imran Alayi and Said, dressed in civilian clothes, walked cautiously on the side of the dirt road, and the two of them, who were not worried about revealing their identities for the time being, quickly passed through the dilapidated houses and approached the retreating armed men; In order to avoid misunderstanding, the second lieutenant first looked at the situation, and then he and Saeed raised their guns with both hands above their heads, and walked over to the bearded man with the broken gun:

"Ah, this friend."

“――？”

As expected, the bearded man who was scanning the surroundings with his gun immediately raised his vigilance, and the muzzle of the gun in his hand was raised a few points:

"What's the matter, two?"

"Yes, the two of us are soldiers of the separate battalion of government forces stationed in Sukhna. Just now he also participated in the ambush battle. "Between words. Imran Alayi, who is good at observing words and feelings, quickly analyzed the strong man's expression, and determined that this person was only vigilant and unintentionally flustered, and his heart was a little more steady, "Now I want to ask where you came from, if it is convenient, can I talk to your commander." ”

“…… Antecedents? ”

At this time, a fierce battle has ended on the streets of Mayadin, and civilians who are probing their brains to watch or even run to the street to pick up items are gradually appearing. It seemed that everyone was accustomed to fighting and the like, and the strong man with the beard swept his eyes left and right, and then turned back to the two people holding their guns high in front of him, and seemed to hesitate for a moment before speaking:

"We are in a hurry to transfer, and we don't know the identities of the two of you, is it true or false?"

"You launched the ambush in a hurry, didn't you? - Oh, actually, I planted the bomb, which is a coincidence. ”

"Huh......?"

Hear the words of Second Lieutenant Alayi. The bearded beard widened his eyes in confusion, looked at the two of them a few more times, and then beckoned them over:

"What's going on? …… All right. I can let you meet our leader. But I'll keep an eye on you, and don't be a little clever. ”

"No, it won't. We also have a mission, and we are in a hurry to get there. ”

Combined with the conversation between the two sides and the observation of the ambush just now, the well-informed Imran had already guessed eight or nine points in his heart, he shook his head at Said, who was next to him, and the two of them put their guns on their shoulders, and left the streets of the suburbs with thick smoke and corpses with strong men.

After a brief ambush and two strangers walking through a large area of dilapidated buildings on the outskirts of the city, the strong man did not go far to bring the second lieutenant and his men to the door of a nondescript looking compound.

After a brief check, I walked in, only to see that the courtyard still looked like an ordinary household, and there were several men in robes with guns standing aside; Leaving the dusty outdoors and entering the house, in the slightly dimly lit room on the first floor, Imran Alayi saw the commander of these armed men, the middle-aged man with a calm face took the ID handed over by the second lieutenant, the two briefly talked a few words, verified each other a set of codes, and the man confirmed the identity of the two people in front of him, and a real smile appeared on his slightly vicissitudes face.

"Ah, what a Damascus man!

――I want to ask, how did I see you here? Seriously, I'm even more surprised now than when you saw us, aren't I? ”

Raising his arm as he spoke, he patted the shoulders of his comrades who had just met, and the man gave a definite answer to the inquiring eyes of the two visitors:

"Yes, we are a contingent of the New Party's armed forces; Sneaked in yesterday and went on a rescue mission in the area. ”

……

In the dusty suburbs of Meadin, where the sun was setting and the sun was shining, Imran and others, who had fought a battle by mistake, met with the commander of the New Party's special operations group that they met by chance in a dilapidated house, and the two sides naturally had a conversation.

At the same moment, far away from the dusty land of Syria, in the clear sky of the returning fighters, the mood of the pilots was completely different.

"Lieutenant Colonel, shall we return like this?"

Against the bright sunshine in the west, after completing a low-altitude raid, the formation flew north, flying in a formation with a "Hurricane" fighter that had run out of artillery shells, and the ECJA pilots in the cockpit were actually very unwilling, or very confused, and finally someone couldn't help but call the leader Raul Alvarez in the channel, and as a result, the lieutenant colonel with complicated feelings took a while before responding slowly:

"yes; Let's go back first. ”

"But, but Miss Sarah, she's—"

"- What else can you do and fly all the way to Riyadh after ALSA?"

The lieutenant colonel who was cruising raised his hand to confirm the navigation path, and by the way, he rejected the flickering call request, and he didn't think about how to report to his superiors at all, so he temporarily pretended not to see it, "I know everyone is worried, but there is no way, our single-seat landline can't save Sarah." -- Or what brave lad would be willing to make a crash landing on Meadin, try to escape on Liberal territory, and let the Major sail back with us in that 'Hurricane'? ”

“……”

"Humph! Look, they're all soft eggs. ”

Hearing the silence in the channel, apparently no one dared to shout "I do!" The agitated lieutenant colonel questioned in the channel.

Of course, when criticizing, he himself knew that this ridicule was just a joke, and no sane pilot would be so selfless, even if it was to save the fallen daughter, it was simply a risk to do so - no, it was not even a risk, it was almost like a brainless person to die!

- But that hairy boy, the hateful ALSA mercenary, he actually did it, didn't he?

Thinking back to the adventure in the sky just experienced, Raul Alvarez, who flew the 22+16 "Hurricane" in front of the charge and swept for the ALSA "Eagle", still felt a little incredible, at that time he didn't agree to let the kid try it because he was dazed and lost the sanity of a pilot, after all, there was no other way to think about it.

However, perhaps it was God's favor, or perhaps the ability to hire pilots was beyond imagination, and the young man who flew the F-15 "Eagle" actually plunged headlong into it, and then took off after making a fortune, the whole thing was simply so amazing that the lieutenant colonel, while rejoicing that Sara Lopez had escaped, could not help but have a slightly sad feeling, although he himself did not want to admit it.

Well, if you want to talk about this matter, luck or something is indispensable; But the grudge boy -- perhaps, he didn't have a sense of proportion, and his courage and skill did make him, the old pilot, three points in appreciation.

And...... The lieutenant colonel couldn't help but think that Sara and the kid were arguing in the channel before, and the love between the two was a little extraordinary; Now that we have experienced such an adventure together, Miss Qianjin, who has always been hot-tempered, would say "thank you" before the crash, and now, ALSA's mercenaries rescued her, did they also take away the girl's heart?

If so, when will the Major return, or whether she will return, and how will he explain it to General Olivier Lopez!

The pilots who led the coalition forces home, and in the clear and cloudless Syrian sky, the pale white "Hurricane" fleet has been moving smoothly.

Just as the ECJA formation was flying north, the flight direction was completely opposite, and the eye-catching painted blue arrow "Attack Eagle" was maintaining an altitude of less than 3,000 meters all the way south, and from a distance, the engine nozzle was only slightly brightened, and it was obvious that the plane's fuel stock was worrying, and it was now flying in the most economical way of cruising.

Having just completed an adventurous feat and rescued a "comrade-in-arms" he had never met, Li Gejian, who was piloting the plane, was naturally in a good mood at this time.

However, this does not mean that things are easy for him to face.

Just now, the low-flying reconnaissance of the enemy situation and the contact with the ECJA fighter plane to carry out an air raid, now the fuel is even more stretched, and the young people flying the F-15E "Attack Eagle" can only cope with it with all their might, with the help of the autopilot function to keep the fighter flying in economic cruising conditions. Under this arrangement, his "Attack Eagle" should have climbed higher to be more fuel-efficient, but the strong woman in the back seat did not have a respirator, let alone a compensatory suit, and the current altitude of 3,000 meters is actually close to the safety limit.

- Hey, what kind of "strong woman", this idea is completely wrong!

Trying to concentrate on driving the landline, but still couldn't help but think of the woman in the back seat, Li Gejian raised his eyebrows, subconsciously raised his hand and scratched his head, he felt that his preconceived impression was really wrong: not to mention anything else, as far as today's observation is concerned, this ECJA female pilot does not look like a "female man" at all, but a beautiful girl who is quite heroic and very handsome.
