Sanders' heart turned completely cold.
He should have thought of it long ago.
How could Song Heping, this local bigwig, genuinely help these "outsiders"?
Using others to kill is what these local bigwigs are best at.
Relying on Song Heping is a dead-end road!
"Baghdad! Thunder Command Center! This is Checkpoint Four! Hulmatu reinforcements are unreliable! Repeat, unreliable! Our casualties continue to increase, the frontline is about to collapse! We desperately need any possible support! Where is the air support?!"
Sanders shouted almost in despair.
"...Checkpoint Four, hold on. 'Quick Blade' squadron is about to enter your airspace. We will try to provide fire support. Additionally, a Quick Reaction Force (QRF) has departed from Baghdad, but the estimated arrival time is one hour..."
One hour?
Sanders laughed bitterly.
By the time they arrive, there probably isn't much left to do but collect our corpses!
