The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 3167

After nightfall, the military airport in Damascus was extraordinarily busy.

The few transport planes in Syria were all transferred in order to drop one thousand soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies into Hamed's base. In addition, two cargo plans were also urgently called in from civil aviation. 2

A total of six planes were responsible for the flight tonight. Zayne also selected the strongest one thousand elites from amongst the eight thousand soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies, and he also made sure that they were all fully armed and prepared for the airborne attack early in the morning.

In order to be able to defeat and kill the enemy in one g 0, Zayne also equipped these one thousand men with all of the high-end equipment.

This included a complete set of the best individual weapon for each person, the best bulletproof vest, a lightweight bulletproof helmet, as well as a set of head -mounted night vision equipment, and multiple thermal imaging cameras.

This kind of high-end standard equipment was very expensive, and there were also very few channels to purchase this equipment. Even Ten Thousand Armies

could not afford to achieve one set of this equipment per person. 1

Zayne felt that since they were launching a surprise attack at night, the night vision equipment was simply a godsend. At night, when the distance visible to the naked eye was less than five meters, it seemed a s though the soldiers equipped with the night vision goggles were cheating because they had a great advantage.

On the other hand, the soldiers were also equipped with very strong protective equipment. That way, even when they were in contact with the enemy and if the enemy were to fire at them, there was a great probability that his soldiers' vitals would not get shot, thus further increasing their advantage.

Besides that, Zayne also specially equipped these one thousand soldiers with a very cruel weapon that was the incendiary grenades.

This incendiary grenade was standard equipment used by the United States military, and it was similar in principle to napalm aside from the fact that it was shaped like a grenade for the convenient and easy usage by individual soldiers. 3

This incendiary grenade utilized a thermite reaction which would produce a high temperature of up to three thousand degrees upon detonation. It could even melt steel.

If two of these grenades were thrown into an almost completely enclosed fortification, it would be more than sufficient to burn those soldiers hiding inside these fortifications into ashes. 3

It would not matter whether the internal space inside the fortification was large or not. As soon as this kind of incendiary grenade was fully burned, it could deplete all of the internal oxygen, and even if the people inside were not burnt to death, they would die from suffocation.

Zayne believed that it would be most appropriate to use these kinds of weapons to attack Hamed's hidden fortifications.

Since they had superior weapons, vision, defense, and even more combat power, Zayne believed that his one thousand elites would certainly be able to inflict and cause great damage to the opponent. Five thousand government soldiers were also making their final assembly inside the barracks next to the airport.

This was also Zayne's third set of insurance. If the soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies had to engage in fierce battle after their airborne landing, these thousands of government soldiers would then launch an assault immediately so that they would be able to annihilate the enemy both externally and internally.

These five thousand soldiers would no longer be using the field artillery synergy tactic used during the day. They would not need to carry the towed howitzers and a large number of artillery guns with them. Instead, they would use hundreds of various types of carrier vehicles to set off to Hamed's base swiftly. If they were fast, they would be able to reach the foot of the mountain where Hamed's base was located in a few hours.

Just as the one thousand soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies were still checking and inspecting their equipment, the five thousand soldiers had already set off. Since their movement speed would not be as fast a s that of the plane, they had to set off one step earlier.

As for the soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies, they would be boarding the plane at one o'clock in the morning. After that, they would then take off one after the other within half an hour to head over to Hamed's base.

While the soldiers were inspecting their equipment, Zayne was still explaining the tactics to them so that they would make full use of their advantages and put in their best effort to ensure the smooth completion of the mission.

At one o'clock in the morning, the soldiers carrying the parachute bags began boarding the plane in an orderly manner.

Zayne also personally boarded one of the military transport planes.

Although he would not be personally leading the parachute jump, he would be on this military transport, plane to receive the battlefield situation report in real-time through the communication equipment on the plane. This way, he would be able to provide immediate tactical command as soon as his soldiers needed him.

After that, the planes took off one after the other. They were divided into two echelons in the air as they headed toward Hamed's base.

At the same time, the five thousand government soldiers were only less than forty kilometers away from Hamed's position. 2
