Chapter 48: The Fire of Revenge

"...My Lord, praise be to Your purity, and transcendent are You, Your noble name is most auspicious, Your dignity is truly great... I seek refuge in the Lord from those expelled demons..."

"Commander, everything is arranged. We have two hundred men ambushed around the meeting place, and a reserve team of a hundred with SA-7 shoulder-fired anti-air missiles is hidden in an abandoned warehouse outside the town. They can avoid the American surveillance planes.

"Hmm... I understand... But still be cautious. All actions must be swift. The combat should not exceed one hour; otherwise, their air support will surely arrive."
