Chapter 1299: Chapter 1304: Throwing Rats and Fearing Breaking Tools

Baghdadi must stay alive because if Baghdadi dies, Satan would be finished.

Why is ISIS wary of using heavy weaponry? It’s not just because Baghdadi is in Satan’s hands. Right now, Satan hasn’t taken out Baghdadi, but ISIS people are trying to kill Baghdadi to take advantage, so who but him should die?

Given the complex relationship between the Organization of Water and Satan, Anton definitely has to lend a hand.

Now there’s consensus within ISIS, and Anton can continue his performance.

"I’d like to know what you’re planning to do next."

The person in tactical gear looked at Anton again. He thought for a moment, then said seriously: "I am... the military advisor for ISIS and also Mr. Baghdadi’s guard captain."

The mention of Baghdadi’s guard sounds almost surreal.

But Anton didn’t dwell on the details; he merely said in a deep voice, "Can I know what’s going on now?"

"Last night, when Baghdadi was about to enter the Nuri Mosque to give a speech to our warriors, he was ambushed. There were two helicopters, they..."

After a long silence, the person in tactical gear finally said with a helpless expression: "They captured Baghdadi, took him onto the helicopter, we shot down the helicopter with portable anti-aircraft missiles. Fortunately, Baghdadi was not injured in the crash, but coincidentally they landed on the square in front of the Rajawad Mosque. Although our people chased quickly, they still managed to hide inside the Rajawad Mosque."

Anton nodded and continued: "Confirmed that Baghdadi is still alive?"

"Confirmed, many people have seen that Baghdadi was not injured."

Azar, puzzled, said: "I’m curious, hmm, how many people? I mean, how many came for the ambush? Who are they? Russians?"

The tactical-dressed person awkwardly twisted his neck, then thought for a moment before finally saying in a low voice: "About fifteen people, identity indeterminable, they were very skilled, yes, very skilled."

Azar paused, saying: "I thought they were reduced to just over a dozen, I didn’t expect they had only over a dozen. So, was Baghdadi going in to give a speech to the warriors? How many of them were there?"

The person in tactical gear looked very uncomfortable; he finally couldn’t help but touch his chin.

Anton immediately said: "That’s not important, what’s important is what you’re going to do now. Please describe the situation of Rajawad Mosque, I’m very curious, why, with only a dozen enemies inside, hasn’t Baghdadi been rescued yet? Uh, before that, can you tell me how to address you?"

The person in tactical gear said in a deep voice: "You can call me Viper. Rajawad Mosque, the Rajawad Mosque is one of the very ancient mosques in Mosul, constructed entirely of massive stone blocks, extremely solid, very large, the main hall can accommodate five hundred people. Here’s a detailed internal structure map for you to view."

Pointing to an internal structure map spread out on the table, Viper continued: "The trouble is that Rajawad Mosque had gone through repeated battles before and has been transformed into a solid fortress. And after we took Mosul, the soldiers stationed there were withdrawn, which is why it got occupied by the enemy."

Azar hastily asked: "Then who’s inside? Is it the Russians? Spetsnaz? Or Alpha? Or Wimber? What’s their combat style, and what weapons are they using?"

Viper shook his head, saying: "Doesn’t look Russian, I’m familiar with the Russians, I feel those inside are certainly not. They... are highly experienced, extremely quick in movements, very well-coordinated, also, those inside are extremely accurate shooters. They can fully block our offensive while saving as much ammunition as possible. Last night’s rescue operation suffered heavy casualties. Well, those inside are very strong."

Viper used several extremely adjectives to describe Satan; Anton wasn’t surprised because he indeed knew who those people inside were.

The Gun God was trapped inside Rajawad Mosque. It’s hard to tell if this is the misfortune of the Gun God Gong Yang or of ISIS.

Azar, with a confused look, said: "If not Russians, who else could it be? Who else can launch such an attack, who else has the capability?"

Anton exhaled lightly. He looked around at everyone in the room and then said in a deep voice: "Sorry, I know there are things I shouldn’t say, but I still want to know, since Baghdadi was taken hostage, why did you dare to launch a massive attack last night? I mean, weren’t you worried? Even if you storm Rajawad Mosque, even if you eliminate everyone inside, what about Baghdadi? A suicidal charge can’t save him back, that’s all I care about."

Viper said solemnly: "Because I wasn’t there last night, now that I’m here, the upcoming rescue operation will be under my command."

Anton walked to the table, looked for a while, sighed, and said: "This terrain is a nightmare for rescue operations..."

Viper remained silent, only frowning tightly.

Anton raised his head and said seriously: "I have extensive experience in rescue operations, I mean no interference with your command, but I would be happy to help."

Viper waved his hand, turned his head, and yelled out the door: "Someone, clean this place up."

Two people were brought in, and Viper said to them in a low voice: "Move the bodies out for disposal."

The bodies, which had been lying on the ground, were finally dragged out. Viper stood before the table, his eyes fixed on the hand-drawn map, and said in a deep voice: "The windows have been sealed with stones, we can only attack through the front and back doors."

Anton pointed to the map, saying: "There are many small rooms at the back, no matter which room Baghdadi is confined in, once the front and back doors might be breached, they have time to kill Baghdadi."

Viper frowned deeply, contemplated for a long while, and finally said: "I have a plan."

"What plan?"

Anton asked, but Viper didn’t answer. Instead, he said to Anton seriously: "Now that you know the situation here, could you please go back and rest? Once we rescue Baghdadi, you’ll be notified at once."

Anton remained noncommittal, while Azar hastily said: "We have to leave here, now, immediately!"

Viper kindly and very firmly said: "Sorry, not possible for now. For safety reasons, I’ve ordered Mosul’s traffic to be blocked; no one may enter or leave."

Azar took a breath and then shouted again: "Then let us make a phone call, at least."

Viper unhesitatingly said: "Unless Baghdadi’s been rescued, electronic interference cannot be interrupted, not even for a second!"
