653: Chapter 646: Everything is Ready
Torbeyev had nothing more to say at this point; he nodded repeatedly, loudly declaring, “I understand, I really do.
Perhaps I am thinking too much, but you must understand that under the current circumstances, I have to be cautious.”
After briefly explaining himself, Torbeyev changed his expression and smiled, “Right now, what we’re most in need of is bombs.
We’re lacking heavy weaponry, so we continue to use liquefied gas tanks and steel pipes to make improvised explosive devices.
I hope not only can you manufacture them for us, but also teach our people how to do it.
The quality of the ones we made before wasn’t very stable, especially the steel pipe rockets.
It’s not just an issue of being inaccurate, sotis they don’t fly very far and they even end up injuring our own people.”
Rafael remained silent; it was Gao Yang’s turn to show off his professionalism.
Gao Yang took over the conversation appropriately and said in a deep voice, “These are small issues, easily resolved with the right materials.”
Torbeyev rubbed his hands together and smiled, “That’s great, it looks like our plans won’t be affected much, which is very good.
I thought we’d have to wait for Saif to get here.
Oh, how rude of
to have kept you here for so long.
May I ask what you’re planning to do now?”
“I want to rest a bit at the place we’ve been arranged to stay, then imdiately check the supplies to see where to start.”
Torbeyev smiled, “You can co to my command center.
My command center is located in the Aleppo Prison Expansion Area, right opposite the prison gate, which is quite convenient for observing the enemy situation.”
Ibrahim’s face darkened in an instant, but he was worrying needlessly; even if Heaven’s Emperor himself ca to invite him, how could Gao Yang bear to leave his side?
Gao Yang replied with reserve, “There’s no need for that.
We’re now a part of Free Syrian, whatever it is, we should not bother you.
Also, if there’s anything you need help with in the future, you can talk directly to our commander.
He will pass the ssage to us.
In fact, we’re all fighting for the sa goal.
Although we belong to different groups, it doesn’t matter, does it?”
Ibrahim was overjoyed and laughed, “Exactly, that’s the way it is.”
Torbeyev forced a smile but nodded and said, “Indeed, we are all the sa.
Well, then I won’t disturb you further.
If you need anything, just let
know.
Goodbye.”
Torbeyev and his n left again, hurriedly, not any slower than when they had arrived.
After Torbeyev had gone, Ibrahim could not hide his anger, bitterly saying, “This Abu Omar, his reach is too long.”
Gao Yang chuckled, “Oh, is that his real na?”
Ibrahim said disdainfully, “Yes, that’s right.
Torbeyev is just a fake na he uses.
His real na is Abu Omar, and almost everyone knows it.”
Whether Torbeyev was his real na or not didn’t matter; Gao Yang would soon leave, having little to do with this Chechen.
Temporarily held up by Torbeyev, Gao Yang and his group finally returned safely to the dwelling that had been arranged for them.
There are reckless people everywhere, and everything was fine before, everyone living in peace.
But then those Turks and Russians just had to stir up trouble.
As a result, not only did they lose their lives, but they also unwittingly did Gao Yang a huge favor by handing over their dwelling to him.
For this, Gao Yang truly wanted to say a word of thanks to the burly Russian.
The house was quickly tidied up, with steel pipes and gas cylinders piled up all over the yard.
There were plenty of houses suitable for living in, and Gao Yang’s group could even have one room per person since there used to be thirty-six people living there, and now only eleven of them had moved in.
Ibrahim was very enthusiastic when arranging the accommodation for Gao Yang’s group.
Being a person who loved cleanliness, he personally directed people to clean up the living quarters that had beco very dirty and ssy.
Watching Ibrahim, Gao Yang was thinking about how to extricate himself from the situation, so he called over Ibrahim, who was the highest-ranking commander but was directing his subordinates to clean his room, to inquire about so things he wanted to know.
What Gao Yang knew was that Aleppo was still in the throes of intense fighting, with the governnt forces’ and Rebel Army’s control areas being complicatedly intertwined.
In the Rebel Army’s dominant area in the northern suburbs, the Rebels were prevailing, and the governnt only had a corridor about three kiloters long, north to south, connecting Aleppo with the outside of its northern part, with only Aleppo Prison and Kendy Hospital remaining in governnt hands.
The village or town where Gao Yang and his people lived was nad Jbeileh, separated from Aleppo Prison by only a road, which was the main route to the north of Aleppo.
Since Aleppo Prison and Kendy Hospital were still under the control of the governnt, the Rebels couldn’t say they fully controlled this road yet.
Only by taking down both Aleppo Prison and Kendy Hospital could the Rebels actually seal off the last passageway of the governnt forces in the north.
From what Gao Yang observed, the current assault on Aleppo Prison by the Rebel Army mainly consisted of three factions, local Syrian Rebels, Middle Easterners, and foreigners from the Caucasus Region.
The so-called people from the Caucasus, were mainly Chechens.
Although the war was taking place in Syria, the Syrian Rebels actually had little combat effectiveness, couldn’t play a leading role, and had the foreign forces command the battles and control the overall situation.
Although the three factions were maintaining a fa??ade of unity, Gao Yang felt that they were bound to have internal struggles eventually.
Gao Yang was not interested in the Syrian military situation, but he needed to know which was the safest direction to retreat after accomplishing what he had co to do.
Arriving was quite easy, but leaving would be different.
It was very easy to enter from Turkey, but leaving from the Turkish border was difficult.
Therefore, Gao Yang and his group planned to take a different route after completing their mission – a safe one that they had to find out from Ibrahim.
He needed to take a road that had stabilized, whether under the control of governnt forces or the Rebel Army didn’t matter, the key was that it could not still be contested by the two sides.
Fortunately, aside from being a dead man walking, Ibrahim was not particularly skilled at anything but was quite inford about the situation in Aleppo.
With his explanations, although he did not directly state which road was safe, knowing the areas controlled by both the Rebels and the governnt, which roads were still contested, and which roads had a stabilized situation – in other words, relatively safe – the picture in Gao Yang’s mind beca increasingly clear.
