Two hours later, the soldiers led by the mustached man were helping the local villagers clean up the battlefield and rescue the injured.
They had brought along medical vehicles, medical equipment, and professional doctors to ensure that the injured received timely and professional treatment.
Although Guanying had experienced the explosion of the rocket launcher, his life was saved. His injuries seemed serious, but they weren't life-threatening. The medics helped him clean up the bomb fragments, disinfect, and bandage his wounds.
Gao Ya's injuries were more serious than Guanying's. After the initial treatment, she still hadn't woken up from her coma.
However, Zhao Yu knew that since his enhanced hemostat had worked, it meant that Gao Ya's life wasn't in danger either.
Apart from the two of them, Wu Diqiu and Yang Feng had also suffered varying degrees of injuries. Compared to Guanying and Gao Ya, their injuries were lighter. However, they were still in critical condition.
For example, Wu Diqiu had been shot twice in the leg. If the bullets weren't removed soon, his life would be in danger.
Yang Feng had a comminuted fracture in his right arm and a 15-centimeter gash on his head. He needed urgent treatment.
In fact, even Captain Pu Jiayou, who looked fine, was covered in injuries. There wasn't a single part of his body that was in good condition.
Even Zhao Yu was not spared. Although Zhao Yu was wearing a bulletproof vest and a fire-resistant suit, after the fierce battle, his body was full of cuts and abrasions. It was as if his body was falling apart.
Moreover, he was suffering from the side effects of the Energy Booster.
Of course, no matter how injured he was, it was better than losing his life.
Kong Shuo's sacrifice made everyone sigh. A good soldier had died in a foreign country. As his teammates in the special service team, they were naturally sad.
However, Kong Shuo's death was obviously complicated. As it involved the mysterious mercenaries, Zhao Yu, Pu Jiayou, and the others didn't reveal anything.
No one knew what the relationship between the mercenaries and the army was. At this time, it wasn't appropriate to make things too obvious, in case there were any variables.
However, there were some things that could not be avoided just because one wanted to.
When the battlefield was almost cleaned up, the man with the mustache suddenly found Zhao Yu and asked him bluntly, "Mr. Zhao Yu, have you ever met a group of Europeans? They are … mm … the professional kind? "
"Mm? What? "Zhao Yu frowned and pretended not to understand." What Europeans? "
"Oh, it's nothing," the mustachioed man said lightly. "They are mercenaries hired by the Kashmiri faction to help them cause destruction or assassinations. For example, they contributed to the fall of Berdar State!
"It is said that the Kashmiris spent a lot of money. That's why I called just now to ask for their help. It seems like I can't get in touch with them, hehe … "
"Oh … I don't know, I've never seen it before!" "We were fighting a bloody battle with more than a hundred enemies just now. How could we have the time to care about the mercenaries?"
"Mm … that's true, that's true …" The mustached man's expression was a little awkward.
"I say, you guys have to be careful," Zhao Yu said as he knocked on the shovel. "Is it that the Kashmiri people want you to reimburse them? Don't make things up anymore. You guys have to check it out … "
"Hehe, I don't think so …" The mustached man laughed. "Our agreement doesn't include this. I only heard that those people are very capable. The fact that the boss of the Banner organization was arrested by the Tarstan police was also related to them! "
Oh …
Zhao Yu thought about it carefully and roughly understood the origin of the mercenaries led by Yuri. They were probably profiting from the war and were using their own abilities to help their employers complete their tasks.
Therefore, Yuri must have lied to them. They were trading arms with the Flag organization because they wanted to use the deal to destroy the Flag organization.
Killing the Iron Khan General was also one of their tasks. They could not only complete their task, but they could also help them rescue Yuri during the chaos.
"Hehe, it doesn't matter …" The mustached man laughed. "Anyway, it's the Kashmiri people's business. It has nothing to do with us. My priority now is to send you back to Tarstan safely!
Originally, we wanted to arrange for a helicopter. Unfortunately, we can't find a decent pilot in the whole of Wakriya. No one can fly over the Keria Valley. Also, the helicopter was stolen, so it's too old. I'm afraid it's not safe, so … "
The mustached man was very good at talking, so he chatted with Zhao Yu for a long time. It wasn't until the battlefield was cleaned up and the wounded were rescued that he began to prepare for the transportation of Zhao Yu and the others back to their country.
To show his sincerity, he allowed Pu Jiayou to speak to Officer Li Jing on the phone.
After Li Jing learned that the Secret Service team and the exploration team were safe, she was very pleased.
Of course, Officer Li's meaning was very clear. Due to the frequent fighting in Wakriya, it would not be safe even if they were picked up by a civilian plane.
So, although it would take a little longer to return in a Wakriya military vehicle, it was the best choice.
After saying goodbye to Salman and the other villagers, Zhao Yu and the others finally got into the military vehicle that the mustached man had prepared for them and headed back to the Keria Valley.
Looking through the window, he saw that the small village in the mountains had become a scene of devastation. It was beyond recognition. After this tragic battle, at least half of the villagers had died in the artillery fire.
Looking at everything in front of him, Zhao Yu felt very uncomfortable. He blamed himself. If they had not chosen to enter the village at that time, would the villagers have been spared?
However, on second thought, the answer was no.
After all, assassinating the Iron Khan General was the mission of the mercenaries. Regardless of whether Zhao Yu and the others were there or not, they would still have shot the Iron Khan General in front of the villagers.
Only then would the enemy's attention be diverted to the villagers, allowing them to take advantage of the chaos to escape.
So, no matter what, the village could not be spared from the flames of war. Perhaps it was because of the existence of Zhao Yu and the others that they were lucky, as at least half of the villagers had survived.
Otherwise, the entire village would have been annihilated.
Sigh!
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu could not help but sigh. People often said that only after experiencing the cruelty of war would they know the value of peace!
In the midst of war, humans were so insignificant, and lives were so fragile.
Hopefully, it would be as Mr. Xie had said, that blood could be exchanged for peace, that war could be stopped, and that the people of Wakya could live a stable life …
Perhaps it was because of the bumpy ride, as soon as the car left the valley where the village was located, Gao Ya woke up from her coma and opened her eyes slightly.
At that time, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on her face. Not only did it make her face look golden, but it also made the whole car feel warm.
Home!
Zhao Yu looked at the sun on the mountaintop, then looked at the system interface that had entered a cooldown period after completing the Qian Kun Mutation hexagram. He finally felt relieved.
