Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 753 Departure
Mountain Eagle and his crew got up very early. After breakfast, they left all their supplies in the hunter's hut and the tent on the ice. Then, with great effort, they placed the white moose on a large tray made of two sleds joined together and slowly pulled it back to camp using two snowmobiles.

The small lake wasn't too far from the camp. As soon as Mountain Eagle returned to camp, he went to Razer and the sled. After a brief discussion, with the help of Old Joe and Queda, they planned the route to the north. Mountain Eagle greeted Xiao Wan and Tessa and then began preparing the things for the trip...

Each person had a snowmobile, and each snowmobile had a cargo bed attached to the back with spare fuel. It also towed a sled to carry outdoor supplies and to save the accompanying Magenshe wolves some walking energy.

The sled was specially designed by Old Joe, an old hunter. It was two meters long and one meter wide. Waterproof and warm fur was nailed to the bottom of the sled, and two holes were designed at the front. By inserting two steel pipes, covering them with a pre-cut waterproof cloth, and securing the sides, the sled could not only be used to carry supplies, but also serve as a simple tent.

The mountain eagles were preparing for a large-scale infiltration and transfer, so they needed to carry a lot of supplies. It was impossible to rely solely on manpower and animal power, so they had to use snowmobiles for transit.

Fuel supplies can be provided by the Huaien tribe in the north, while Old Joe and Queda will go to the wetlands in the south to set up one or two fuel supply points. This means sending fuel there, finding a secluded place to hide it, and then placing a beacon.

While Razer and his team were preparing supplies, Mountain Eagle activated all the defenses in the camp and, together with Donkey and Hummingbird, two electronics experts, reviewed the camp's defensive layout and assigned them permissions.

Xiao Wan stayed by his side the whole time without saying a word. Only after Shan Ying handed him a tactical terminal and personally established the highest level of access with her fingerprint did she lead him to a relatively quiet place...

"Be careful, leave the campsite to me, I'll look after several children!"

After a few seconds of silence, Xiao Wan hugged Shan Ying tightly around the waist, buried her head in his chest, and said worriedly, "Does it have to be you who goes?"

The mountain eagle gently patted Xiao Wan on the back and said, "Because I am the most suitable person..."

Xiao Wan, from the day I fell into the Mekong River, I was caught in a 'war', a war that ordinary people cannot see or participate in!

I never intended to involve you and the children, but my enemy is too powerful. I must place you in a place I believe is safe so I can focus on fighting them without distractions!

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle looked at Xiao Wan's slightly red eyes and said with a hint of helplessness, "I actually have a choice, which is to give up everything and find a place where no one knows me to spend the next few decades."

But I would be unwilling to accept that, and the result would be unfair to you as well!

You are my wife, and I will never say 'sorry' to you because of something like this. When you knew I was lying in a hospital bed on my deathbed, and you flew all the way with the children to see me, we became one!
I must take some risks in order to control the situation and steer things onto a path that I can manage.

So please don't try to persuade me..."

Xiao Wan looked at Shan Ying with red eyes, nodded with a heavy nasal tone, and said, "I understand. You have to be careful. Come back the same way you went out!"

Many people care about you. Take good care of yourself so you can come back and take on your responsibilities…

Mountain Eagle paused for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly, trying to change the subject. But Xiao Wan grabbed his collar, stood on tiptoe, and gave him a hard kiss on the lips, saying, "You're back safe and sound. Don't worry, I won't bully Tessa..."

Mountain Eagle sighed and said helplessly, "How about I buy you a bag or a house or something?"

At this time, sentimentality doesn't suit my temperament as a big boss..."

Xiao Wan chuckled, then reached out and touched Shan Ying's cheek, saying, "What should a big boss's aura be like?"
I've seen many mistresses of high-ranking officials and big bosses, and they all act like mice before a cat when they see the wife. But Tessa is strange. When she sees me, she's not nervous at all, and she always stares at my butt.

Those who know Thais are generally open-minded; those who don't might think she was trying to pick me up.

Upon hearing this, Mountain Eagle rubbed his face vigorously, then put his arm around Xiao Wan's shoulder and said, "Now that you mention it, I'm even more worried..."

Don't worry, I'll definitely come back safely. Otherwise, all the wealth I've painstakingly accumulated might be taken away by a Thai girl, even the pots and pans.

This is outrageous...

Xiao Wan punched the strange-sounding mountain eagle on the waist, then said wearily, "You know it yourself. When you set off, bring those two cougars with you. They are definitely stronger than those wolves."

Don't push yourself too hard; if things get really bad, come back.

The camp is well-defended, so there's nothing wrong with our family fighting the enemy together!
You can't always think of taking all the dangers upon yourself...

I'm your wife. I should enjoy the good times, and I'll stand by you through thick and thin!

Upon hearing Razer's call over the radio, Mountain Eagle put his arm around Xiao Wan's shoulder and walked towards the camp exit, nodding as he said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing..."

I'll go north first, where there are few enemies, and they're definitely no match for me. I'll only be able to use 'Hello' and 'Katie' a few days later when I cross the river and head to the southern wetlands.

Remember, you are now the camp's owner, and everyone must obey your orders!
Blood Fox will be back soon. If you have any questions about camp affairs, ask Dalia. For anything related to combat, ask Blood Fox; they will help you make decisions!

After speaking, Mountain Eagle patted Xiao Wan on the shoulder, walked over to Tessa who was waiting at the camp exit, hesitated for a moment, hugged her, and then rode off on his snowmobile without looking back... Razer watched Mountain Eagle flee the camp like a refugee, glanced at Xiao Wan and Tessa, and then shook his head with a smile...

"Don't worry, your men won't die..."

………………

Mountain Eagle drove his snowmobile for over twenty kilometers across the rugged snow-covered terrain, finally arriving at the location of the Huai'en tribe just as the sun was about to set…

The village, consisting of dozens of wooden houses, is nestled among the trees, with a small river that is half-frozen flowing along its edge.

When Mountain Eagle and his men arrived, the barking of hunting dogs echoed through the village...

As several hunters in fur coats pushed open the door with guns, Mountain Eagle called out to Baron, who had jumped off the sled and was about to attack the hounds, then jumped off the snowmobile himself and walked toward Wayne who had come to greet him...

Stepping through the thick snow, Mountain Eagle took a few steps forward and gave the tall and imposing Huai En a hearty hug. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you..."

The usually stern-faced Huai En shook his head and said, "Mountain, our tribe never betrays the trust our friends have placed in us!"

Your enemy is our enemy!

As he spoke, Wayne nodded to Razer, Sled, and Chakdi, then, taking Mountain Eagle's arm, turned and walked towards the village, saying, "Mountain, I've had all the hunters ready, just in case you need them..."

Mountain Eagle quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, you've got it wrong!"
I didn't mean for you to go out and risk your lives with me. I'm here to install some equipment and also to remind you to be careful.

Wayne, a man of few words, didn't respond to Mountain Eagle's words but nodded and said, "I don't know what difficulties you are facing, but I can assure you that no one can get close to the brown bear camp from our direction."

You can rest here tonight. Tomorrow I'll have someone bring supplies and fuel to accompany you to the valley pasture.

After listening, Mountain Eagle shook his head and refused, saying, "No need. Find me a suitable location, preferably one that children can't access. I need to install some weapons and equipment."

Upon hearing this, Huai En frowned and said, "So urgent?"

Mountain Eagle nodded seriously and said, "I'm in a hurry because my enemies aren't just coming from the north. I need to deal with them quickly and then turn south..."

With a somewhat solemn expression, Huai En led the mountain eagle on a brief tour of the small village before stopping in front of his wooden house...

What do you want to install?
There's nowhere in the village the children can't go, so the best solution is to keep them at my house. My wife usually doesn't go out in the winter, so she can help look after them..."

The mountain eagle had just circled the village, and indeed, just as Huaien had said, there was no more suitable place than his house.

Only half of the households in the entire village have generators; most households still rely on solar panels and batteries purchased from the brown bear camp for lighting.

The Mountain Eagles want to set up a set of switchblade launchers here, as well as a set of spearhead missiles as a precaution.

There was truly no better place than the roof of the Wayne family's cabin...

At this point, Mountain Eagle didn't waste any time. He explained what he was installing, then drove the snowmobile to Wayne's door, put up a ladder, and sent the two launch boxes onto the roof platform.

After installation, the surrounding area was decorated with wood to conceal the installation, and then an electrical wire was run from inside the house to power the two transmitter boxes.

After settling everything, Mountain Eagle jumped off the roof, grabbed Huai En, handed him a GPS, and said seriously, "I'll be back in two days at most when I go north. I need you to take some people to a few designated locations tomorrow to set up some fuel supply points for me."

After securing the fuel supply points, I need you to take the switchblade and spearhead missiles to Mishin, Russia.

You saw how I installed it. Once I give you the message, just power them on and move them to an open area. I'll take care of the rest.

After listening, Wayne said somewhat discontentedly, "Shan, we are friends. You can't exclude us from the fight. No one can get away with causing trouble in Mishin, Russia..."

Mountain Eagle smiled and shook his head, saying, "I believe you, so I need you to take people and supplies to Mishin, Russia, upstream..."

"Helping me guard that spot and keep an eye on the river upstream is the greatest help you can give me!"
