1099: Chapter 1041: Audacious to the Extreme!

Catching Turtles in a Jar?

The skilled dare to be bold!

Without extraordinary courage and strength, who would dare to play like this?

This group of mercenaries is indeed not ordinary!

To escape from Seleck, which was like a web of heaven and earth, they actually thought to flee through the airport.

You should know that this airport is an important place where the Star Federation has been massively reinforcing troops and urgently transporting soldiers and materials.

A large number of troops and equipment were airlifted here, making the airport absolutely the most dangerous place in Seleck.

And the result?

They didn’t go to the remote countryside to find a secluded place to hide.

Instead, they headed for the most dangerous airport, thinking themselves to be invisible in the most obvious place, perhaps?

Of course.

Not only were their ideas very bold, and not easily thought of by the average person, but most importantly, they were strong enough.

Daring to ambush the Star Federation’s Marine Corps, they struck swiftly and decisively, changing clothes and disguises to blend in.

Driving the hijacked armed Humvees, donning someone else’s camouflage uniforms, pretending to be an attacked convoy…

Damn it!

They really managed to mix into the airport.

Audacity of the heavens!

Arrogance of strength!

Acting so boldly, how could the Marines guarding the gates of the airport possibly harbor any suspicion?

The most crucial part is…

These mercenaries, who were mostly veterans with many years of service, were not stage-shy and were not prone to revealing their act.

Moreover, when the gate guards heard that their own allies were ambushed and some were in urgent need of medical treatment,

Sympathy and urgency naturally made them forget about their duty to thoroughly check.

Tang Xiao saw it all very clearly.

The convoy roared into the airport, and the Marines at the gate were even standing at attention and saluting!

Now what?

What do these mercenaries intend to do by mixing into the airport?

Tang Xiao might have spotted a slip-up, but it didn’t mean others were alerted.

Issuing an order to chase them inside immediately was impossible, since not all vehicles had been checked, and charging in would mean being treated as an enemy, quickly blown up along with their vehicles.

So should they shout out a warning that the gate guards of the Star Federation’s Marines have been fooled?

While Tang Xiao hesitated, Zhang Ren suddenly turned around and said:

“I have a feeling that something was off with that attacked convoy that just passed.”

Tang Xiao slightly nodded, saying in a deep voice: “Let’s keep quiet for now, have everyone be combat-ready, and once inside the airport, adapt to the situation!”

“I guess they’re trying to steal a plane and escape.

If that’s the case, let them go.

After takeoff, report them to the Star Federation!”

After a moment of astonishment, Zhang Ren couldn’t help but nod repeatedly, barely holding back a laugh.

You are influenced by those you associate with.

Zhang Ren felt that Tang Xiao, having spent too much time with Wu Jie, must have also learned to set up traps for others, albeit indirectly.

To report after takeoff…

This move was quite mean.

Given the dominance of the Star Federation, they would certainly shoot them down directly!

Those mercenaries had gone through the trouble of risking an ambush and a daring entrance to the airport.

Thinking they had successfully deceived everyone as they took off, only to be blasted out of the sky…

That satisfying feeling was truly thrilling.

The key point was that they could eliminate them without much effort and no casualties.

Of course.

This was just a temporary idea.

The specifics would only be known after entering the airport.

What if the mercenaries couldn’t secure a plane to escape in time?

Being caught on the spot could mean an immediate battle at the airport.

Whether for self-preservation or to eliminate them, Tang Xiao’s call for combat readiness was right.

Soon after.

Every vehicle in the convoy passed the check and was allowed to proceed.

The check was merely cursory.

After all, nuclear warheads are not small, and couldn’t fit under the seats.

A glance inside the vehicles, along with a look at the trunk and undercarriage, was enough to know if anything was being smuggled.

The convoy gradually sped up, entering the airport.

Thanks to Seleck’s decent economy and the trade interactions formed by the port, the airport’s previous civil aviation business was doing well, ranking as the top local airport in Nabiya.

Perhaps because the land prices in Jiazhou Continent were indeed cheap, the biggest impression of this airport was its size.

With an enormous area, it even has two parallel runways.

One of which is a 4E class runway that can accommodate large jet aircraft for takeoff and landing.

As for the apron, it was even bigger, capable of accommodating dozens of aircraft at the same time.

That’s why this airport is also an excellent contingency landing point for international civil aviation in eastern Jiazhou Continent.

Those intercontinental flights, in case of an emergency, could make an emergency landing here.

And today.

Such a spacious and uncrowded airport greatly facilitated the mobilization of the Star Federation’s troops.

Several strategic transport planes, known as the behemoths of the skies, arriving at this airport, didn’t seem cramped at all.

A large personnel and material transfer was underway, with a high efficiency in loading and unloading.

Approaching the apron, the special plane belonging to the Liuli Continent’s War Statistics Institute was already prepared to receive them.

Without this special plane for traveling, how could Tang Xiao and her party have come so swiftly from Xikelse?

The flight crew and special agents staying with the special plane, seeing the convoy approaching, immediately began preparations for takeoff.

Accompanied by the humming of the hydraulic engines.

The clamshell door at the rear of the plane gradually opened, and a ramp was set up, ready for vehicles to drive straight in and out of the cargo hold.

Naturally, the armored vehicle escorting them all the way didn’t enter the cargo hold but parked to the side.
