Chapter 997 - 994: Standing Against the World
However, as long as you don't go deep into those places, there basically won't be any danger. Plus, Silver Fox brought over a dozen armed personnel with her, so even if they encounter other armed forces along the way, it's likely the opponents would have to weigh whether they dare to confront and provoke them.
"How is it? Everything going smoothly?" Silver Fox asked.
"Of course!" Lin Chuan nodded and replied, "Everything went very smoothly."
"That's good." Silver Fox smiled, without asking Lin Chuan how much money he made or where he sent those weapons.
After getting in the car, Silver Fox wrapped her arm around Lin Chuan's and gently leaned on his shoulder. A hint of happiness rose on her face. For Silver Fox, being able to lean on each other with the one she loves is the greatest happiness. Money is just external to her; compared to Lin Chuan, everything can be abandoned, everything can be let go, except these feelings which cannot be abandoned nor discarded.
"Silver Fox, what's up?" Lin Chuan asked.
"I'm okay." Silver Fox shook her head lightly and said, "I just miss you a bit."
"Miss me?" Lin Chuan asked with a smile, "You've never said that before. Be honest, has something happened recently?"
"It's nothing major actually." Silver Fox shook her head.
"Tell me about it." Lin Chuan asked.
"Americans have been butting heads with us lately." Silver Fox sighed and said, "Due to the Anersen Prison incident last time, the Americans have been eyeing us. So I have a premonition that a big conflict between me and the Americans might be about to happen."
Lin Chuan paused in surprise, furrowing his brow, and asked, "Have they made a move against you?"
"Yes!" Silver Fox nodded and said, "Our bases in the United Arab Emirates and Ethiopia have been taken down by the Americans."
"They actually dared to act openly?" Lin Chuan frowned.
"That's right!" Silver Fox nodded and said, "They indeed took action against us openly. So I'm very angry. This time, I want revenge against them. Absolutely can't let the Americans mistakenly think Fire Fox is easy to bully."
"But with your strength fighting against the Americans, it's like throwing an egg against a stone." Lin Chuan was somewhat worried.
"I'm not afraid at all." Silver Fox snorted coldly and said, "At worst, it's a fight to the death. I absolutely can't let anyone think Fire Fox is a coward."
"Alright, if you want to go against the Americans, I'll help you." Lin Chuan said.
"Really?" Silver Fox looked at Lin Chuan seriously and said, "Your relationship with the Americans is quite good, you shouldn't break your ties with them for my sake."
"For you, I'm willing to stand against the whole world." Lin Chuan said dominantly.
"Hee hee!" Silver Fox happily threw herself into Lin Chuan's arms. Then she laughed and said, "Lin Chuan, I knew you're the best to me."
Lin Chuan gently embraced Silver Fox, softly caressing her cheek.
Inside the car, scenes of warmth unfolded.
After arriving at Abbas Town, Lin Chuan directly entered Silver Fox's mansion.
Soon, a group of people entered the house, and Silver Fox led Lin Chuan into the war room. Silver Fox pointed at the sand table and said, "To retaliate against the U.S. military's actions in the UAE and Ethiopia, I've decided to strike back at their military base directly in Afghanistan."
"How are you planning to do that?" Lin Chuan asked.
"I plan to launch a sneak attack on their camp," Silver Fox said.
"The Americans have at least two hundred people stationed there," Lin Chuan squinted and said, "A sneak attack won't easily succeed."
"That doesn't matter." Silver Fox sneered and said, "I don't intend to succeed. I just want to tell the Americans that I'm not easy to bully. Warn them not to provoke me in the future, or else I'll make them regret it."
Lin Chuan laughed and said, "Alright then."
After days of travel and fatigue, Lin Chuan appeared very tired. He was asleep as soon as he lay down.
Silver Fox looked at the man beside her pillow, his face resolute like it was carved from stone. With thick eyebrows and big eyes, even with his eyes closed, the corner of his mouth slightly curled up, as if dreaming sweetly. Silver Fox's lips also curled into a smile. She gently stroked Lin Chuan's hair, appearing very beautiful and calm.
Lin Chuan slept soundly without any guard, feeling safe in Silver Fox's presence.
......
When Lin Chuan woke up the next day, he found Silver Fox was gone.
Walking out of the room, he saw lines of soldiers patrolling. From the patrolling teams, it could be seen the recent security seemed tighter. Plus, the entire Abbas Town appeared to be in a tense state of alert. However, this didn't affect Abbas Town's current business conditions. Merchants in Abbas Town came in droves, all attracted by Afghanistan's marble.
"Where's Silver Fox?" Lin Chuan asked a soldier.
"Oh, the leader went out with some men." A soldier nearby quickly replied.
"Where did they go?" Lin Chuan asked curiously.
"I don't know, the leader didn't explain," the soldier said helplessly.
"Didn't explain?" Lin Chuan was a bit surprised. Silver Fox would actually go out without leaving any instructions? If trouble arises, what should be done?
Just as Lin Chuan was puzzled and confused, suddenly, a man with the rank of officer hurried over and said, "Mr. Lin, the leader took people to the American camp; it's likely that she's already engaged in battle with the other side!"
"What?!" Lin Chuan was shocked; he didn't expect Silver Fox to be so impulsive.
"That's right!" The officer quickly nodded, saying, "The leader set out with people early this morning. By now, there might already be results from the battle."
"What should we do?" Lin Chuan was suddenly at a loss.
With Silver Fox's strength, she's completely no match for the Americans. Moreover, she only took over a hundred people; it's known that there are two to three hundred people stationed in the American camp. This is the last American military camp remaining in Afghanistan. Furthermore, the people left behind are basically veterans who participated in the Afghan war. Although they are veterans, their combat experience is quite rich and sufficient.
Thus, Silver Fox taking over a hundred people there is simply sending them to their deaths.
Lin Chuan was somewhat worried and also deeply concerned. He quickly said, "Hurry, take some people and follow me to the American territory."
"Yes!" The officer nodded immediately upon hearing this.
Then, Lin Chuan immediately led people and rushed straight towards the American territory.
Since the destruction of Anersen Prison, the Americans gradually withdrew from Afghanistan, leaving behind that one military camp. This camp is managed by Colonel Shrek.
This morning, Shrek was awakened from his room.
"Colonel, something's wrong, something's wrong," a soldier hurriedly shouted, "Someone has launched an attack on us."
"What?!" Shrek was taken aback, jumping up from his bed and cursing, "Damn it, who the hell dares to attack us? Are they crazy?"
"Uh..." The soldier hesitated momentarily, awkwardly saying, "General, what... how should we deal with this?"
"Don't panic," Shrek quickly said, "We are American soldiers; we are warriors of the United States, how can we be afraid? Immediately organize a counterattack!"
"Yes!" The soldier nodded immediately.
Soon after, a counterattack battle began.
Silver Fox led over a hundred people for a sneak attack, catching the Americans off guard with a speed that was swift and unstoppable, even penetrating the American camp and occupying several areas of their camp, forcing them into a disorderly retreat.
Shrek, in his military uniform, hurried onto the battlefield. The enemy's weapons were extremely formidable, and they were even launching grenades, which threw Shrek into a panic.
"Damn, who the hell are these armed forces?" Shrek roared.
"It's Fire Fox's people," the soldier hurriedly said.
"Damn," Shrek roared angrily, "That damn woman Silver Fox dares to make a move against us; it seems that without a lesson, they won't understand our might."
"Colonel, we've already withstood the opponent's pressure." A soldier nearby, covered in dirt and nearly missing a meeting with his maker thanks to a shell that just landed beside him, adjusted his askew helmet excitedly and said, "We've organized an effective resistance. Now I'm ready to take people around from behind. This time, we must annihilate them completely."
"Alright, go ahead," Shrek nodded.
Soon after, a nearby lieutenant quickly led people around to encircle from behind Fire Fox.
Silver Fox led her people charging ahead, quickly breaking through the enemy's defensive line, entering the enemy's camp just as swiftly. This excited her immensely; if she could drive the enemy out from here today, it would surely be something worth celebrating. Defeating Americans would be a source of pride for any country.
The smooth and easy passage made Silver Fox somewhat complacent. She thought she had picked elite soldiers, so they slaughtered the enemy like cutting through bamboo. It soon turned into a complete rout on the other side.
"Leader, something's wrong," a soldier hurriedly shouted, "We've been surrounded."
"What?!" Silver Fox was shocked, saying, "Quick, break through from the front."
Silver Fox issued a wrong order. At this time, the opposing front was obviously the strongest. Trying to break through from the front at this moment was clearly a mistake, and Silver Fox paid the price for this erroneous command.
Rat-a-tat-tat...
Suddenly, two fierce streams of fire erupted.
Silver Fox's people immediately fell in great numbers.
"Take cover, take cover!" Silver Fox was in turmoil. Unexpectedly, there were so many enemy soldiers at the front, which struck fear into her heart. She felt enormous fear and panic. She was terrified, realizing that they were completely surrounded, trapped in the most familiar American camp. Silver Fox had a feeling of despair deep within her. Finally, gritting her teeth, she said, "Brothers, charge with me."
