Chapter 687: The Best Candidate of the M Nation Council Part Two

The captain frowned. “What I’m curious about is how they knew we were going to pass through here. This was obviously an ambush, and those tanks and fighter jets are all ours.”

“Captain, if they have these big guys, then what’s the point of our guns? How else can we fight this? Are we going to be trapped in this valley? Why don’t we just ask for help, we need fighter jets to cover us out of here anyways.”

The other soldiers agreed. “If we don’t disclose our identities and justify bringing the big weapons out, we won’t be able to beat them. First of all, they are familiar with the terrain, and secondly, this is a country with no signal communications, and the amount of intelligence is a very important factor when fighting here. In short, if we don’t use powerful weapons to fight them, we’ll be very passive and have very little chance of winning. Guys, don’t forget that the reason why the Vietnam war was called the most devilish battleground was because we simply weren’t familiar with the climate and environment like the natives, and the same is true here.”

The captain said, “Everyone knows what you’re saying, and the country knows it as well. But if we could march in here with an identity, then we would have taken that approach already. We are soldiers, and if the country gives us a mission, we would have to accomplish it. Why is it that those fugitives can survive here and we can’t? We’re trained soldiers.”

“Captain, those people were fleeing; their priority is to survive and they would thank God if they could survive here. We are different, we are not in that kind of realm.”

Meanwhile, on the main road, Li Wei and the others had headed back and started tallying up the death list.

The list was transmitted directly to Mario via text message, and then Mario passed it on to Stenson.

Stenson, in turn, handed the list to Senator Jerry.

After Senator Jerry had finished reading this confidential document, he phoned Stenson back.

“Mr. Stenson, is this list real?”

“You don’t need to worry about that, you just need to take this list of mine to the National Soldier Database and check their identities to see if they are all elite soldiers of the 6th Headquarter or not. If they are, then all you need to do is go to the White House, confront them and ask where these men are. If they are not within the borders of this country, then that means my information is correct and they are already dead in the Land of Mercenaries!”

“Alright. This information is very important, thank your boss for me.” Senator Jerry sensed that this was an opportunity.

“You’re welcome, I hope it’s useful to you.”

After hanging up the phone, Jerry printed the file immediately and headed for the meeting.

Chekhov, who was on his computer, heard Mario’s dilemma and teased him without turning his head around. “That’s because you’ve been doing nothing all day. Do you have nothing to work on lately? How about I find something for you?”

Mario: “Do what?”

Chekhov: “Search for patients from the M Nation hospitals, see how many people of power and status are in there suffering from incurable diseases. The higher their status, the better. Once you’ve gathered them into a list, bring it over to me.”

Mario: “You want me to stalk people? What are you trying to do?
