Ultimate Firepower

It looked like there was a plan, but in reality, it was just as good as having no plan at all.

If they waited, who knew how long it would be before they could act. The Secret Action Bureau was willing and able to cooperate, but the question was how?

The first problem they faced was that the American Embassy was too large, covering 440,000 square meters with its own power station, swimming pool, and gymnasium, employing over 15,000 people. Of course, not all of them worked inside the embassy, but there were at least 5,000 people working inside.

The CIA and the American Embassy were inseparable. They had their own area within the embassy, and if they really needed to detain and interrogate someone, there was no problem—they had their own exclusive space.

In theory, the Secret Action Bureau could also have their own place inside the embassy, but since the CIA wielded more power there and completely dominated the Pentagon in terms of intelligence work, the Bureau naturally wanted to keep a distance from this adversary.

It was not a problem to get in, but after eliminating Abdulla to silence him, trying to get out would be extremely difficult.

Furthermore, the embassy was surrounded by walls and heavily guarded by soldiers. It was less an embassy and more a fortress. To forcefully storm in was not only unthinkable due to the severe consequences it would trigger, but also practically impossible.

This was why Grins strongly advised against Gao Yi using the second plan: it required a life-for-life trade, and while Gao Yi was brave and impulsive, he ultimately did not wish to commit suicide.

In short, two words described the situation: difficult to handle.

But, fortunately, this matter concerned Shaman and not Gao Yi himself. The one who should be most worried was Shaman, not Gao Yi.
