Time Travel 04: I Fight the US in the Middle East

Everyone present was stunned when they saw the money Azam took out!

When they learned of the US bounty, everyone felt uneasy. After all, most people in Iraq were very poor, and it wasn't impossible for them to betray the guerrillas and sell their souls to Satan under the influence of money.

As for how to deal with the American bounty... everyone was completely clueless! They were just waiting for Azam to return and see what he had to do, but...

Azam brought back a lot of money, enough not only to solve the livelihood problems of the guerrillas and their families, but also to offer bounties to high-ranking U.S. military officials!

Guerrillas are afraid of leaks, but high-ranking U.S. military officials are even more afraid!

As they entered Baghdad, they were accompanied by many Itau people!

Moving supplies, cleaning, and disposing of household waste...

These Itau people are inconspicuous and earn very little money, so... could they be tempted by money to betray US military intelligence to the guerrillas?

Of course!

The US military was an aggressor from the start! They won't feel any psychological pressure!

A sneeze!

Inside the presidential palace in Baghdad, King Burund III suddenly sneezed. What happened? Why would he feel a chill down his back in the tropics?

Hmm, the air conditioner must be set too low!

Little did he know that from that moment on, he was already not far from hell!

After a moment of astonishment, everyone in the courtyard where the guerrillas were located was filled with admiration!

Azam knew that to lead a guerrilla force effectively, he had to establish his authority and gain the trust of his men. Now, he had done it!

Meeting the expectant gazes of the crowd, Azam waved his hand and declared, "Brothers, I believe our compatriots will stand with us! The invading American troops will soon be swallowed up by the vast ocean of our Yitu people!"

The team members were excited, and they all raised their guns and pointed them at the sky.

"Hey, hey, no wasting bullets, no cheering, keep it down, keep it down!"

Mariam's eyes sparkled; she knew Captain Azam could come up with a solution, and now he had indeed come up with such a brilliant idea!

"Captain Azam, you're practically Sargon the Great, Nebuchadnezzar II..."

Sargon the Great, a figure from over two thousand years BC, created the world's first empire: the Akkadian Empire.

Nebuchadnezzar II, the most famous king of Neo-Babylon in the 5th or 6th century BC, built the Hanging Gardens and conquered Jerusalem...

Azam waved his hand helplessly, "Don't try to flatter me..."

This wasn't actually his idea; the Yituo guerrillas of later generations did exactly that!

All the movements of the US military were put on a price list. Those officers who were used to looking at satellite reconnaissance and drone images never dreamed that Didi would become popular for taking US military personnel in the Middle East!

"Captain Azam, who will pay this bounty?" Mariam asked.

Everyone fell silent and looked at Azam.

The guerrillas' movements need to be kept secret! If the US military discovers them, they will send a large force to surround and wipe them out!

If they can't find the guerrillas, they'll look for people connected to them. For example, they'll ask who to report the information to and who will pay the reward.

This person is easily exposed, easily... exposed!

It can be said that those who undertake this task are risking their lives!

At the same time, he also has a lot of power!

If the wrong people are hired, it could very well end up like the National Endowment for Democracy in the US, where taxpayers spend hundreds of millions of dollars, most of which ends up in the pockets of a few.

In the end, all that's left for the actual operators is a mere 50 cents per comment. Even so, the "50-cent party" is still happy to do it and works very hard.

Azam's gaze swept over the crowd, finally settling on Majid.

"Majid, this task is entrusted to you!"

Majid was taken aback: "Me?"

"That's right, if not you, then who else could it be? You're not only responsible for spending money, but also for making it! When we run out of funds, we'll do what we did today and go ask the wealthy for money again!"

Although they managed to bring back tens of millions of dollars, most of the funds were secretly buried by the two on their way back, along with more booby traps. No one else could get their hands on them!

Bringing back six hundred thousand dollars is enough to shock everyone, and it's enough for now!

Majid was also Azzam's most trusted person, and this was the only thing that could be entrusted to him.

Everyone else looked at Majid with complicated expressions. Would Majid take on this job that could cost him his life at any moment?

"Okay." Majid nodded amidst everyone's anticipation.

What's there to be afraid of? We're doing something this important. Even if we die, we'll go to heaven, and there will be eighteen virgins with us...

It's done!

After arranging this matter, Azam yawned. Another busy day was about to begin!

While Mariam's mother was tending to the sheep and preparing dinner, I went to take a nap.

Just then, Shehid suddenly spoke up: "Captain, tonight... should we harass the American troops stationed in our village of Jufra?"

Azam looked him up and down.

"What's wrong, Captain?"

"Tell me, what are your thoughts?"

"This afternoon I secretly went back with a few men to scout and discovered that the US soldiers are going to be stationed there permanently. They have already set up tents and transported a lot of supplies and equipment. As per your instructions, we should harass the US military when they are tired, especially their oil depots and ammunition depots..."

Azam's eyes were filled with approval. This Shehid had never been a soldier and was usually a low-key person in the village. Who would have thought he was someone who was willing to use his brain! It seems that he can be trained as a key member of our team in the future!

"No!" At that moment, the Caliph shook his head: "Since the US military is already stationed here, they will have all sorts of defensive measures in place, not to mention they have night vision goggles. If we go straight up... I'm not afraid of dying, I just don't think it's worth it!"

This guy's got brains! Azam was very satisfied.

Last night's attack was a long-range strike and a quick retreat, and Azam is very experienced. If he goes with his men tonight...

He didn't want these energetic young men to turn into corpses!

This isn't a video game where you can have countless lives...

"Then what do you suggest we do?" Azam asked.

"We can dig tunnels outside, down to the ammunition and oil depots, and then plant explosives..."

Azam nodded in approval.

One wanted to play guerrilla warfare, and the other wanted to play tunnel warfare. They came up with these ideas without even being given any pointers. As the saying goes, the wisdom of the people is boundless!

Quack, quack!

Just then, the warning sounded again!
