At this moment, Hamid was wearing a camouflage uniform, while standing in the highland fortifications on the southernmost side of the base, using a tripod-style high-powered telescope to look south.
Thirty kilometers is actually very far away, so ordinary telescopes can’t see it at all, and this kind of high-power telescope can only see it roughly. And the distance is still too far, so the lens distortion is serious, and is making it very uncomfortable to see things.
However, from the field of vision of the telescope, favonovel.com saw the army advancing towards favonovel.com in the distance.
He is a little puzzled. Haven’t the government forces been fighting those relatively large-scale resistance forces recently? Why did they vacate their hand so quickly to come to our turf?
So favonovel.com immediately ordered his adjutant, “Go, quickly contact the secret guard in front, and immediately prepare to deploy the drone. Within five minutes, tell me their number and equipment!”
“Yes commander!”
Hamid’s adjutant immediately turned and left, and ran inside to communicate with the concealed sentry at the front by radio.
The concealed sentry immediately released several civilian aerial drones bought from China.
This kind of ordinary drone, which is only sold for a few thousand in China, is nothing more than a toy for aerial photography enthusiasts in China, but in the Middle East, the strategic role of this thing is very powerful.
The first is that it flies high. After a little modification, it can fly to an altitude of one or two kilometers. The image transmission can reach nearly ten kilometers in open areas, and the flying speed can reach sixty to seventy kilometers per hour. The key is the frame is as long as the palm of the hand so it is invisible to the naked eye, and its noise could not be heard. It was really suitable for battlefield reconnaissance.
If you are facing a modern army with advanced equipment, this thing would definitely be useless. It would be discovered and beaten down before it even went up.
But if you are facing an ordinary motorized unit, then the opponent would have a hard time defending against it. Therefore, this kind of drone is widely used in the military field in the Middle East.
As soon as several drones were launched into the sky, the size of the enemy force was quickly investigated.
The adjutant reported back to Hamid, “Commander. The size of the opposing army is about 8,000, with 10 armored vehicles, 36 towed howitzers, and more than 60 various transport trucks. The investigators in front say, it looks like it should be a Russian-made 152mm towed howitzer.”
“Damn!” Hamid cursed, “That is the fucking firepower of two artillery battalions! What do they want? Do they want to blow us up?!”
While talking, the deputy commander hurried in and said out of breath, “Commander, I just got news that the government army is from an overseas mercenary group called Ten Thousand Dragon Temple. It is said that these 10,000 mercenaries are extremely powerful and have already conquered several anti-government forces one after another! Including Hafiz, who used to have a good relationship with us. Two nights ago, they were taken down by the same group!”
Hamid was stunned, “What?! Hafiz was taken out? How come I never heard of this?!”
The deputy commander said embarrassingly, “Everyone is scattered in the ravine, the information is not flowing smoothly, and we are desperately trying to increase infrastructure construction, how can there be time to take care of outside affairs…”
Hamid hurriedly asked, “What is the origin of the Ten Thousand Dragon Temple?”
The vice commander explained, “Ten Thousand Dragon Temple is a non-governmental mercenary organization that has risen in the past few years, they have a number of mercenary training bases around the world, the Middle East countries, Africa, South America, these more troubled places. In these years they are developing rapidly, under the command of the registered mercenaries they have 50,000 to 60,000 people and their comprehensive strength has now been among the top five global mercenary organizations!”
