Chapter 294 - 280: Worldly Wisdom
Gao Yi hadn’t seen the full extent of the shelter, he had just entered the store, passed through the tunnel, and sat in a small hut for a while.
But now, the people at the carpet factory had started to get busy, disguised as workers, yet now transforming into warriors before Gao Yi’s eyes, constantly entering and exiting, finally assembling before him.
Since the room Gao Yi was in served as the entrance to the tunnel, those hidden in the back room preparing to fight in the storefront had to pass by him.
Some were wearing robes, others T-shirts and jeans, most had beards, yet there were two young men with cleanly shaved faces, but all ten shared one common feature—they each held an AK rifle.
Ten rifles, mostly AKMs, but among them, two men carried RPG launchers on their backs, one had two RPG-7 armor-piercing grenades in his belt, another three.
With the rifles and rocket launchers, their firepower was limited within a single store, but if they were defending the entire factory, it would be just enough.
Although Gao Yi didn’t know how large the entire factory area was, as long as the attackers didn’t bomb the complex indiscriminately, dealing with ten defenders determined to fight to the death would be a headache for even the most elite troops.
Even the most elite troops dread urban warfare, and the nightmare only intensifies if they had to clear buildings room by room, especially if attacking with troops like the Libyan National Army who aren’t adept at fighting, it wouldn’t just be an hour or two, they could likely hold off for a couple of days.
But there was a problem.
Gao Yi observed the expressions on the faces of the ten men assembled at his door, and he noticed they lacked the zeal typically seen on martyrs, nor did they show any signs of excitement; seeing zeal and excitement would indicate they were ready to die without fear of fleeing.
