The Ultimate War Of The Apocalypse-Chapter 606 - 599: An Opportunity to Exploit

"This is an American Air Force Base, this is a French Air Force Base, this is a French Army Base, and this is a Japanese military base. The military bases of these four nations are essentially connected, with Djibouti Ambouli International Airport in the middle separating them. Initially, we believed the Ark of the Covenant was at the American Air Force Base, but later, we discovered it was being stored at the French Army Base."

Tarta put down his pencil, seemingly quite irritated as he said, "We also found out that the Sanitation Worker’s headquarters in Djibouti is located at the French Air Force Base, where the facilities are complete and undamaged by the war. Crucially, it seems the French People were controlled by the Sanitation Worker quite early on, so we were surprised to find that the French troops in Djibouti had formally sided with the Sanitation Worker."

Yang Yi said with a smile, "To be accurate, the French didn’t surrender, they were the Sanitation Worker’s trump card from the beginning – all four thousand of them.

Tarta shrugged and said, "Learning that it was the French protecting the Sanitation Worker’s headquarters, we decided to launch an attack. The assault went smoother than expected, but we had always thought the Ark was at the French Air Force Base. Only after we broke into that base did we realize the Ark wasn’t there."

Suddenly, Gao Yuan said, "The Ark had been moved; they were constantly shifting its location. Moreover, it had been used. When the Ark is used, its signal becomes extremely strong, so we detected its location from a great distance. If the Ark isn’t in use, then it can only be detected from a much closer range."

Immediately, Yang Yi asked, "How close?"

Gao Yuan shook his head, while Xinghe frowned and said, "I’m not sure, it’s very ancient technology. If the Ark isn’t in use, the signal range could be ten kilometers, maybe just one kilometer, or possibly only a hundred meters. However, as long as I search with Revelation, I can definitely pinpoint the Ark’s location."

Ram’s concerns were different from Gao Yuan’s. He said in a grave tone, "You just mentioned that the Sanitation Worker chose the French base because it was undamaged by war. What does that mean? Did Djibouti experience fierce fighting?"

Yang Yi nodded, "Yes, after the Aliens invaded and released the virus, the whole of Djibouti plunged into chaos. Although the military bases of the various countries maintained relative order, the Sanitation Worker had already deployed a large number of soldiers in Djibouti, who were unaffected by the virus. They took advantage of the turmoil to attack, with the American Air Force Base being the first target."

"The American’s?"

"Yes, the battle was fierce. Since we were in Djibouti at the time, the fight lasted all night. In the early stages of the attack on the American Air Force Base, nobody knew what was happening. Later, the Americans began requesting aid from all foreign military bases in Djibouti. Shenzhou troops stationed in Djibouti were the first to assist. Finally, the Shenzhou troops broke through the Sanitation Worker’s encirclement, then the Russian, German, and Italian military facilities were attacked as well. They didn’t send reinforcements. Shah’s military base’s garrison surrendered, Spain’s garrison surrendered."

Ram frowned and asked, "What happened next?"

"The Shenzhou garrison led about less than a thousand remnants of the American forces, breaking the Sanitation Worker’s encirclement again and re-entering the Shenzhou Base. Then, the Sanitation Worker successively overran the other nations’ military bases."

At this point, Yang Yi let out a long breath and said, "The Sanitation Worker besieged the Shenzhou Base for thirty-six days, ultimately using heavy artillery to breach the base, leaving no survivors among the defending forces."

Ram looked down without speaking, and Gao Yuan couldn’t help but say, "No survivors?"

"No survivors, including the Japanese and Russian bases. These two military bases held out for a longer time, and the fighting was intense, almost all buildings were destroyed. The German People put up a fierce fight but were completely overrun within two hours. They really couldn’t hold up in battle. The Italians’ performance was surprisingly good; they lasted four days and didn’t surrender."

Gao Yuan could not help but say, "Japan actually held out till the end? Italy didn’t surrender?"

Yang Yi said with a grave face, "Yes, that’s not surprising. Both Japan and Italy put up extremely strong resistance and inflicted heavy casualties on the Sanitation Worker. Speaking of this, I myself am quite surprised."

Ram nodded and said, "That means, those areas with severe damage are less likely to be hiding the Ark. What about other areas? What about Djibouti City District?"

"The city district isn’t heavily damaged, but the Sanitation Worker spent a lot of time cleaning up zombies. Due to some unavoidable reasons, most parts of the city are in poor sanitary conditions. Although Djibouti City District is vast, not all areas are garrisoned. Currently, the Sanitation Worker’s main focus is on the American Air Force Base, where a lot of unmanned aerial vehicles remain, as well as some transport planes, fighter jets, and helicopters. Additionally, regarding port operations, we discovered that the Sanitation Worker has already resumed maritime shipping, so the port area should also be a focus of attention. All key areas have been marked out."

Yang Yi’s intelligence work was thorough, and Ram looked at the map intently for a long time before he spoke in a deep voice, "No need to adjust the battle plan, our main attack direction doesn’t need to change."

Yang Yi said solemnly, "The Air Force Base is a heavily defended area by the Sanitation Worker, we should avoid that area."

Ram took a deep breath, shook his head, and said in a low voice, "No, not avoid it, our plan is to launch a direct assault on the Air Force Base."

Yang Yi was taken aback and asked, "Why?"

"Because only in this way can I pull off the opportunity to attack..."

Ram fell silent for a moment, then glanced at his watch and said softly, "We have three hours until the total attack. It’s time to head to the helicopter’s hiding place."

In a low voice, Yang Yi said, "At least inform the participating troops, let them know where the enemy’s defenses are strong and where they are not. It could also reduce casualties..."

Ram shook his head and replied, "We can’t notify now; radio signals will expose our position. We’re in an absolute radio silence period. We’ll wait until after the attack has begun. Yake, you stay behind. After the attack begins, use the radio to inform the participating troops."

Yake didn’t say anything. He looked at Ram with one eye for a while, then said quietly, "Yes, boss."

Ram packed up the map, handing it to Yake, then looked at the others and said, "Does anyone have anything else to add?" freёweɓnovel.com

There was silence; Ram smiled and said, "Alright then, let’s move out. We’ll discuss coordination on the way. Tarta, your role is crucial—you have to convince people that you are me, which is no easy feat."

Tarta glanced at Ram, quite helplessly responding, "I think you’re boasting, not just implicitly but outright. Do you think that’s appropriate?"
