Saint Mary's Town is quite small, with a total population of only over three hundred people. Most of them are natives, with a few white businessmen who couldn't make it elsewhere, doing small-scale purchasing and transport businesses here.

The town's Central District is situated on a highland near the Yukon River. There isn't even a traditional bar here, just a pitifully few shops. The shops cover a large area, selling various necessities for life in Alaska, and they can also repair boats and snowmobiles and other electromechanical products.

The purchasing point in the town center gathers salmon and fur bought from the Inuit and packs them, transporting them via small airplanes to Fairbanks or Anchorage for resale.

This area gathers one-third of the town's population. Beyond here, the town only has a road leading to the airport runway, while other roads are dirt paths created by long-term vehicle travel that connect to the residences of the surrounding Inuit.

In Alaska, the term 'vast land, sparse population' is no joke. The town's total of around three hundred people stretch from the easternmost household to the westernmost about a distance of 3 kilometers.

If you visit between eastern and western houses in winter without dressing properly, weaker individuals might freeze to death halfway through the trip.

The town now has no police station. The State Police's winter office was moved upstream about ten kilometers to Pyle Station, where four state policemen are on duty. Other state policemen rotate monthly by air or water transportation.

The original State Police office in the town was thereby abandoned, becoming General Sied's temporary office now.

The arms dealer Alex Vincent is not just an arms dealer; he himself also has military experience in the Spanish Foreign Legion, so he understands well what's needed for an assault battle.

Therefore, Vincent started preparing early and had people arrive there beforehand, merely checking out the situation, and then acquired the town's abandoned State Police office under the guise of an environmental protection NGO, claiming an investment to build a hydrology and fish breeding observation station.

They not only refurbished the dilapidated State Police office but also brought in brand new equipment, transforming the original office equipment into a radio command center.

The current State Police office has reinforced walls and windows, with a decent speedboat and a medium-sized cargo ship docked at the small pier at the front, and a balloon similar to a weather balloon floating above the office building.

The balloon carries a repeater ensuring the radio signal isn't blocked by terrain, allowing Sied to smoothly command those shooters to execute his attack plans.

Mountain Eagle at dawn reached out to lift the tent, letting Balang, who had been at his feet warming them, go out for some activity...

Sitting up, he rubbed his slightly sore eyes for not sleeping all night, took a deep breath of the cold air, then put on his shoes and walked out of the tent.

He added wood to the campfire, and seeing 'Sled' and Chakdi wake up from the disturbance, Mountain Eagle gestured for them to continue resting, then himself took a pot and kettle, went nearby, filled them with clean snow, and set them over the campfire...

Chakdi did not heed the boss's suggestion to rest; he tenderly rubbed the neck of his Megengxi Wolf that kept him warm all night, then turned to the sled tent, bent down, and grabbed a bunch of white snow to rub forcefully on his face and hands, quickly waking up before walking to Mountain Eagle's side...

"Boss, what are we doing today?"

Mountain Eagle, mimicking Chakdi, grabbed a bunch of white snow to wash his face and hands, then said with a smile: "I've already found them..."

While speaking, Mountain Eagle pointed southeast and said: "They're at the angle where the town's tributary upstream meets the Yukon River. There's an abandoned State Police office and a small pier there."

Upon hearing this, Chakdi's eyes lit up, and he said: "How many people are on the other side?"

Mountain Eagle rubbed his chin, smiling: "Currently, there are over two hundred people over there, but after dark, there should be not many left there..."

Chakdi froze for a moment and then said in surprise: "That means they'll launch an attack on Brown Bear Camp tonight..."

Mountain Eagle nodded slightly, picked up a branch, and drew a 'V' in the snow on the ground, pointing to the two upper endpoints of the 'V', saying: "On the left is Marshall Town downstream of Brown Bear Camp, and on the right is Russian Mishen upstream."

And as he said, Mountain Eagle drew a horizontal line in the middle of the 'V', then lightly tapped the two points at the junction of the horizontal line and the middle section of the 'V', saying: "Edward Foundation will be responsible for the upstream attack, while the Sinaloa Group and Vincent's hired mercenaries will handle the downstream attack.

They will deploy personnel to land at these two places..."

Mountain Eagle looked at Chakdi's somewhat solemn expression after listening, drew a circle in the vast wetland opposite Brown Bear Camp with a branch, and said: "Here will be a team of about 120 people...

They will arrive at the opposite bank of Brown Bear Camp at sundown for rest, then launch an attack coordinating with the heavy weapons on two ships to assault Brown Bear Camp when the personnel on both sides land."

Upon hearing this, Chakdi frowned and said: "Attacking across the river in winter, these people are crazy? This is an impossible task..."

Mountain Eagle gently shook his head and said: "I don't know if they are crazy, but they indeed have the capacity to cross the river.

And the personnel deployed here are actually cannon fodder, their role is to fully distract the camp's attention when unable to cross the river, covering the enemies on both sides to move closer to the camp.

When the aerial bombardment is completed, these men will enter the camp for final cleanup.

Do you remember those captured yesterday?

Originally, they would attack the Indian villages half a day in advance, mobilize personnel within the camp, then surround and provide reinforcements, even if unsuccessful, they would block our retreat path to the north.

I don't know when these two groups got in touch, but it's clear, they've set a trap for me, obviously not wanting to give me any chance."

As Mountain Eagle spoke, he recalled some of the content intercepted last night, a glint of cold light appeared in his eyes...

"The target of these people isn't just me and my family, but also the native villages around Brown Bear Camp.

They want to use slaughter to warn everyone that anyone cooperating with me will suffer cruel attacks."

Chakdi was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He wasn't angry, but worried...

"Boss, what are you planning to do?"

Mountain Eagle grinned and said, "The opponent's actions are already clear, I don't want to beat around the bush with them, I want to have a head-on confrontation..."

Chakdi didn't know where Mountain Eagle's confidence came from, he hesitated and said, "Boss, the opponents have many people..."

Mountain Eagle smiled and patted Chakdi's shoulder, saying, "But we have two strong teams, and we still have the icy Yukon River..."

......

"When they land is our best opportunity..."

At Brown Bear Camp, on the first floor of Mountain Eagle's Wooden House, sitting at the rustic dining table, Gray Wolf pointed to two marked points on the map, saying, "I don't know where Mountain Eagle's intelligence comes from, but according to him, the enemy's actions obviously have a reckless element...

We can arrange people to the east and west sides, where there are very few convenient landing spots, as long as there's someone guarding here, attacks can be launched during their landing attempt, burying them all in the Yukon River.

In this season, let alone falling into the water, just getting a leg wet, people won't last long!"

Blood Fox nodded slightly after hearing...

When Mountain Eagle transmitted the intelligence, after the enemy's attack methods became clear, Blood Fox, the old fox, was no longer so anxious...

Watching Xiao Wan solemnly tugging a group of lively children, calling a few bodyguards to pack their bags, Blood Fox thought for a moment, waved to Gray Wolf and Butcher, then walked over to Xiao Wan...

The old man glanced at the displeased Yue Yi and Luna, he reached out to tease the Large Snowy Owl which occasionally struggled in Yue Yi's arms, then looked at the serious Xiao Wan and said, "The camp by the small lake is almost ready...

Mountain Eagle has eliminated the northern enemies and figured out the enemy's attack routes from other directions, so it's very safe there.

In fact, you don't need to bring too many things, this battle will end in two to three days!"

Xiao Wan nodded with a complicated expression, then after a few seconds of silence, said, "Who exactly are the enemies?

This is the United States, why can these people act so unscrupulously?"

A strange smile appeared on Blood Fox's old face, he said, "Mrs. Li, this is the world your husband is in, where anything can happen!

This place has a completely different landscape from the world you see!

Could you have imagined in the past that your husband could lead negotiations that could stir the US and Russia, the two great nations?

Could you imagine your husband sitting down to talk with people from the United States Senate?

The world you saw in the past was just artificially glossed over, maybe since childhood, you were told this world is full of truth, goodness, and beauty, and evil is an occasional event...

But I have to tell you, those are all not true!

The essence of this world is the survival of the fittest, and for profit, those in suits and ties will lay down the facade of civilization to rip and fight each other, that is the true color of this world."

As Blood Fox said this, he glanced at Tessa standing somewhat at a loss on the side, and said to Xiao Wan, "Tessa is the pillar of Mountain Eagle's Southeast Asia operations, her family is unusually prominent...

As Mountain Eagle's wife, and also someone recognized by us old-timers, we hope you can accept her existence and protect her as well."
