Mercenary I am the king

Chapter 668 Traffic Jam
Iligobacco International Airport.

A C-130 transport plane flying from Kuwait landed on the runway, taxied to the apron, and the cabin door slowly opened.

Nathan appeared at the rear of the cabin in tactical gear.

This plane was specially used to transport him and his two "Watchmen" teams. In order to hunt down Song Heping, the CIA's covert operations department had invested heavily. Generally, the mission command dispatched only one "Watchmen" team, but this time, two were dispatched in a row.

Nathan has been in charge of the Secret Operations Department's affairs in the East and is very familiar with the armed factions and various geographical relationships here.

The fact that Kelly sent him here this time shows how much importance she takes the incident.

Before coming, he had asked the CIA station in Irigo to collect all intelligence information about the "People's Power" armed forces where Song Heping and Samir were, and asked for the preparation of on-site information on Hawkins and Jody who were attacked.

In particular, he ordered the stationmaster Simon to immediately mobilize drones and other resources to conduct 24-hour uninterrupted patrols in the southwest area to monitor the actions of all armed factions there.

He judged that Song Heping would definitely take action against the I5I5 organization this time.

After all, the CIA used the I5I5 organization to attack Song Heping's company business and himself.

Based on Nathan's investigation of Song Heping's past experience, he felt that this guy would definitely take revenge. It was said that Song Heping was in the southwest of Irigoe at this time, which further confirmed his judgment of Song Heping's intentions.

Eligo had a clear vision. Nathan walked out of the cabin and looked around. Outside the tarmac, the CIA branch's convoy was already waiting.

Hummers, bulletproof cars, etc.

There was also a platoon of US Marines responsible for the escort.

In a place like Irigo, Nathan had to be on guard.

In the past two years, the situation in Irigo has become somewhat delicate.

When the US military first arrived, although there were many attacks against the US military, they were all resistance organizations composed of stragglers and guerrillas left over from the former government army of Shadamu.

Three years later, as the bigwigs on the poker wanted list were arrested one by one, these organizations gradually declined.

That was the best time for the American troops in Iriguchi.

Unfortunately, this situation did not last for more than two years, and the situation soon took a turn for the worse.

Many new local armed forces have emerged in various places and regions, and these forces do not like the US military.

Various bomb attacks and sniper attacks against US troops began to become prevalent.

The situation has been even worse recently.

Even within the newly supported puppet government, many political forces began to call for the US military to leave Irigaray.

It's embarrassing to get slapped in the face.

At least he appeared in Irigo as a liberator.

Now they want you to leave. If you don't leave, it will affect their image. So you are here to occupy the place?

Let's go, I'm not willing to give up.

The Irigaray War involves not only the interests of the military-industrial complex, but also the interests of energy groups. Even the bigwigs in the military hope that the war will continue.

After all, hundreds of thousands of dollars of military funds are invested here every year, and every piece of pork that passes through their hands has a bit of meatiness. Which big boss in the Pentagon would be crazy not to call a halt? Which of the Smith specialists in the army did not make a fortune from this war?

leave?

The money invested has not been recovered!

America doesn't do business at a loss!
Nathan was very satisfied with this level of protection. He took out the Ray-Ban sunglasses hanging from the pocket of his tactical vest and put them on himself in a cool manner. Then he picked up his equipment bag, turned around and waved his hand, and gave an order to his subordinates - "Get in the car!"

Everything is going smooth.

Get off the plane and get on the bus.

The convoy quickly left the airport.

The radio was crackling, and from time to time, voices could be heard talking to each other in the entire convoy.

"Be careful ahead, there's a truck driving slowly, overtake him..."

"40 meters to the left, three men in long robes, suspicious..."

"200 meters to the overpass, please be careful on the bridge..."

The Marine Corps was responsible for front and rear guards, and they looked very tense. Every vehicle with a weapon platform on the roof had entered combat mode and was ready to fire at anything they considered a threat, even a dog.

"Why did the car slow down?"

"Lieutenant, there seems to be a traffic jam ahead!"

Nathan, who was sitting in one of the armored Lincolns, looked away from his laptop screen.

The convoy slowed down.

Closing the computer, he looked out the window.

There are dense crowds of civilian vehicles all around.

Many of them are oil tankers. Currently, the biggest source of income for Irigo is the oil business.

Tanker trucks can be seen everywhere here.

Next to the huge tanker truck, Nathan felt a little uneasy.

"Tell them to change routes if that doesn't work. Ask the command center to see what other outposts have found. If this road is too congested, there's no need to go this way..."

Before he finished speaking, the uneasy voice of a Marine suddenly came from the radio.

"I've contacted the command center. A car bomb has been found up ahead. The bomb disposal team is now handling it."

Hearing this, Nathan's brows instantly twisted into a knot.

"How can this be such a coincidence?!"

Rhodes, the captain of the "Watchmen" squad beside him, looked around vigilantly.

There are cars all around.

He didn't even dare to roll down the window.

The glass is bulletproof. If it falls down, it will give a sniper an opportunity to kill.

"We need to change our route. We can't just wait here."

Rhodes made a quick choice.

"I agree."

Nathan agreed.

Traffic jams are a common tactic used by terrorists or members of resistance groups.

Force the car to stop on the road.

Then find the right opportunity to launch an attack.

The speed of any armed escort convoy must be guaranteed.

If attacked, you must quickly leave the ambush circle.

This is an iron rule.

"Contact the command center and see if we can change the route."

"We've contacted them and they can change the route. There's an exit 70 meters ahead on the right that will take you to E1 Highway. It'll take an extra three kilometers, but it'll be very smooth there."

"Then take Highway E1 and quickly avoid this place and return to the Green Zone!"

"Understood, I'll change the route immediately."

"Send some people down there and ask the car in front to pull over and let us pass. Don't delay here!"

The call was very brief.

The desire to leave is also very strong.

Nathan's nerves began to fray.

He picked up the HK416 short-section assault rifle that had been leaning against his thigh and checked the safety and chamber.

The bullet has been pushed into the chamber.

Nathan gently pushed the safety open, pointed the gun muzzle downward, and gently placed it on the edge of the seat and the door. This way he could raise the gun and shoot at any time, and it could also ensure that it would not accidentally discharge and injure his own people.

Several Marines got off the Humvee in front, holding their guns and looking as if they were facing a powerful enemy, and began to drive away the surrounding civilian vehicles.

"Move aside! Move aside! Don't interfere with military operations!"

The leading sergeant was a big black man, tall and strong with a mouthful of white teeth and eyes wide open like a door god. The Irigos around him quickly turned the steering wheel and began to move towards the side of the road.

No one wants to mess with American soldiers.

Soon, a passage was cleared on the road ahead.

The leading Hummer roared and turned its head towards the right lane.

The Marines got on the vehicles one after another and the convoy started moving at high speed again.

On the roof of a building not far away, under a shed covered with plastic sheeting, a telescope covered with a sunshade net was retracted.

"The convoy has been rerouted to E1."

"Very good, you can leave now."
