CH712: A Mole's Price

Later that night...

A convoy of pickup trucks sped towards a village in the Latakia mountain range. 

The village had a wooden construct forming a semblance of a fence around it. There was also a raised platform which functioned as a watchtower.

A man on the watchtower noticed the convoy speeding towards the village and raised an alarm. 

A few men from the village rushed out towards the fence's gate. There were about twenty of them.

Their leader was a fat burly man with an unkempt busy beard and a scar across his forehead.

The man's head throbbed as he saw the approaching vehicle. The scene was reminiscent of the event that caused the scar on his forehead.

<Get ready for battle!> He roared to his men without hesitation.

His men found cover positions.

Soon enough, the incoming insurgents arrived at the gate. They opened fire on the village militia without a word.
