Chapter 1268 Traces
Four cars were moving forward in a fan shape in the quiet desert, their front lights illuminating a dim light ahead.
Crossing the national border is not that difficult. With GPS to guide the direction, you don’t have to worry about getting lost, which is the most troublesome thing when traveling in the desert. Basically, you just need to have a pre-arranged meeting point and arrive according to the GPS guidance.
So Hazard's role is reflected here, only he knows where the meeting point is.
The car stopped in a desert, and Azar whispered to Yang Yi, "This is it."
Yang Yi looked around and saw everything was dark, so he whispered: "Do you just need to wait?"
"Yes, they should be coming."
Azar got out of the car and looked around. He couldn't see anything in the darkness. So after a while, he went back to his car and got a night vision goggle. After observing for a while, , he pointed in one direction and said: "I saw it, where are they."
There were no lights on, but Yang Yi slowly saw a car slowly driving over, and then a man wearing a robe and a turban jumped out of a pickup truck.
Azar walked over and said loudly: "Hello."
He took off the headscarf on his face, hugged Azar, and then the person who came to pick up Yang Yi and the others didn't say a single unnecessary word, but said in a deep voice: "Let's go, follow behind."
The speed was a bit slow, but Yang Yi was not in a hurry. He asked Rui Ji to drive slowly behind the pickup truck. Then he took out his satellite phone and dialed Aaron.
"Sir, the call has been made. Do you have any new instructions?"
Aaron said calmly: "Let's contact you after we arrive in Mosul. There are no new instructions yet, just be on standby."
Yang Yi hung up the phone.
Different from usual tasks, or different from normal tasks, this time Yang Yilai is more like executing Aaron's personal will. Therefore, Yang Yi does not have anyone from the CIA's Middle East Division to respond to him, and there will be no one to support him. Even if he If something happens, it's impossible to get air support or cover.
But on the other hand, Yang Yi can directly contact Aaron. For other CIA agents, they would really like this.
"How long do we have to go like this? Can we let them turn on their headlights?"
Rui Ji was a little impatient, and he finally complained to Yang Yi.
Yang Yi couldn't help but smile and said: "It's impossible. They are afraid of being hit by the air and don't dare to turn on the lights."
Reggie took both hands off the steering wheel. He spread his hands and said, "Are you kidding me? Do you still need to see the lights when attacking at night? Come on, what age are we in now? If you still need to see the lights to attack, then... these people are all here What are you thinking!"
Yang Yi shrugged and said: "It's better than driving with the lights on. Well, don't forget that it's the Russians who are attacking them now. Maybe they think the Russians' night bombing capabilities rely on sight."
Reggie was stunned for a moment, then he shook his head and said, "I won't make any comments, okay, let's just walk slowly like this."
Azar said softly: "Let's go like this. These people... are very stubborn. It's better to do things in a way they think is reasonable."
After driving in the dark for more than three hours, the pickup truck leading the way finally turned on its headlights, and the convoy finally hit the road again.
We have now entered the area controlled by Ace.
The car at the front had a big black flag behind it, and although the road was full of potholes, it was still traveling much faster.
Azar finally breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice: "We'll be there in a few hours. There won't be any more danger."
The sky started to get dark, and Yang Yi looked at the scenery outside. Although there was desert on both sides of the road, some traces of the war could also be seen.
Especially on roads, you can often see dense potholes. Some of these potholes are caused by disrepair, but a lot of them are obviously bomb craters.
But the traces of the war were not very obvious until Yang Yi saw several corpses dumped on the roadside.
Yang Yi felt the cruelty of war for the first time. He had already seen war in Ukraine, but the civil war in Ukraine did not give him a very deep feeling.
But it was different here, because the corpse Yang Yi saw clearly belonged to a family. Of course, it might not belong to a family. But if there were two adults, a man and a woman, and two children among the corpses on the roadside, it would be natural. They will be treated as a family.
He knew there was a war, but this was the first time for Yang Yi to see the body of a child.
The car drove past quickly. No one was interested in the corpses that had begun to rot on the side of the road, but Yang Yi saw the face of a corpse.
The black holes on the face of the rotten and then dried corpse that were originally eyes made Yang Yi suddenly feel as if he had suffered a heavy blow.
Yang Yi withdrew his gaze and looked at Azar.
Azar had no reaction. He might not even realize that Yang Yi was shocked by the corpse on the roadside.
"We may not see Balham today, well, he's busy right now."
Feeling Yang Yi's gaze, Azar thought that Yang Yi was concerned about other things, so after a brief explanation, he lowered his voice and said: "After arriving in Mosul, you can relax, but you may I don’t like it too much, well, the women there are not very... worthy of attention.”
Yang Yi shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter, although the faster the better, but I understand."
Finally approaching Mosul.
Mosul is not a big city, but it has a lot of history and is also a famous city. But now, only ruins are left in Mosul.
Cars began to enter the city. Although there were many armed men, no one tried to stop them after seeing the black flag on the car that took Yang Yi and the others into the city.
It seems that it is very easy to blend into Ace Ace.
Of course, it is easy to sneak into Ace Ace, but it is not easy to get close to Badadi.
Yang Yi and the others were taken directly to a house that looked relatively complete from the outside. The entire house was built of stone. Although it was narrow, it could be seen that it had a long history. The most important thing was that the house was very solid.
Yang Yi and the others were taken to the place, and then the pickup truck that led the way left directly. Azar, who got off the car with Yang Yi, said with a tired face: "This is how they do things. Don't worry, it will be over soon." Someone is here to receive us, and now everything is ready. You can choose a room and take a rest first."
In a war-torn city, it is not easy to find a clean and tidy place to stay for a rest, but the place Yang Yi and the others got looks very neat, but not very clean.
Entering the living room, the decoration was complete, but there was a tapestry on the wall. Standing in front of the tapestry, looking at the tapestry and the large pool of black blood on the nearby wall, Yang Yi breathed out and said: "Well , I definitely don’t want this room.”
