King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer Chapter 586 563: Value Defeats Value

While Dorian indulged his will to power in the rear, Joe Ga and his n were engaged in combat at the frontlines.

Both sides hunkered down within buildings, taking what they believed to be the safest positions from which to shoot at each other, with no such thing as an accuracy rate.

Suppression, suppression, attempt an assault, fall back, and then suppress again…

This kind of warfare might have been intense and exciting for the militia, but after ten days, Joe Ga had begun to feel a bit weary of it.

Qiao was never a patient man, yet this ti he had set a plan for P·B that required patience to carry out.

In the span of ten days, across 14 streets, as 'Gunfire' and their evacuation targets gradually neared the center of the terrorist-controlled area, the terrorists were squeezed into the area where Joe Ga and his n were operating, and the madn's resistance started to beco fiercer.

The Tuareg people hadn't suffered much loss, but civilian casualties had begun to occur.

As the terrorists realized that the civilians, who normally supported them, were becoming increasingly unstable, they chose to 'intimidate' them with the most primitive ans.

Every day, civilians attempting to flee were dying. When more and more IR lights sent by P·B lit up, and when civilians began to escape under the cover of night of their own accord, Joe Ga knew the ti was almost ripe.

He couldn't hold back any longer!

The docks had been operational for a week now, the five cargo ships organized by Qiao Liang and the two tankers arranged by Old Chen had already docked.

A large amount of essential supplies were unloaded, waiting to be distributed; so of the oil pipelines needed repairs before they could function; coordination was needed for the Compte de Chasse, and the rapid response teams from Arica…

With Joe Ga absent, many affairs were proceeding clumsily and efficiency simply could not be improved.

Every day, as Joe Ga squatted down to take potshots, his phone never stopped ringing.

Now that the situation was nearly well-stewed, Joe Ga decided to move in tonight and finish it off in one fell swoop.

Putting an end to this one gathering area would completely break the will to resist of the other two gathering areas.

After that, he wouldn't need to personally go into battle. He could just have others replicate the strategy.

P·B used only legitimate strategies, and with Tubruq already under blockade, the terrorists had no ans of solving the situation.

Because, unbeknownst to those unfortunate terrorists, their supplies were all distributed by Qiao himself.

Even towards the end, the despondent terrorists themselves would start to make demands…

Stop always giving us 7.62 bullets. Give us so 12.7mm ammo if you dare; I'll let a few families leave if you do.

The war had reached a point where it was starting to turn sour.

P·B's offensive desire was weak, and as more civilians fled, the terrorists' will to resist also declined.

After they killed so of the civilians who tried to resist them and found they could no longer garner support from the civilians, they went crazy for a few days and then gradually began to lose heart and even thought about escaping.

They had co to realize that Tubruq was no longer their paradise!

For the first ti, Joe Ga truly understood that 'the benevolent is invincible' might not an 'goodness' overcoming 'malice,' but rather one set of values triumphing over another.

It wasn't just about simply offering so supplies to refugees; it was about actively promoting universal values that t the needs of the common people and letting them spread.

When civilians realized that the values you displayed t their needs more, their ntality would change, and even the terrorists themselves felt the sa way.

By the twelfth day, the cornered terrorists made a move that they had never considered before — they proposed negotiations.

They wanted to exchange all the children in the controlled area for so supplies and ammunition.

Everyone understood that the terrorists themselves were wavering and, plainly speaking, they were preparing to break out.

Joe Ga chose to satisfy their requirents, trading 7.62 and 5.56 bullets to retrieve over thirty minors.

Old Karman had been rather silent recently; when he used his binoculars to see 'Gunfire' leading the Tuareg and terrorists complete the 'exchange,' putting a bunch of children onto trucks…

The old man seed to have an epiphany. Looking at Qiao, who was lying on the ground with his head resting on 'Kitten's' thigh, sighing heavily, he said, "Boss, they are planning to break out. Let's rescue the families of those kids…"

For the first ti, Old Karman didn't want to kill enemies; instead, he wanted to save people. This made Qiao, who had lost his patience and was constantly irritable, sit up straight…

"Rescue?"

As he spoke, Joe Ga looked at Ayu and said, "King Kong, check if Dragon Gecko is having a fever, sothing's off with this old boy."

Karman was the most respected person in Joe Ga's team; how could Ayu dare to joke about him?

Facing his boss's request, Ayu grinned foolishly, like a battle-hardened warrior who couldn't understand human speech, hugged his weapon, turned and walked back to his combat position, eyeing the opposition fiercely, as if ready to kill at any mont.

Joe Ga felt a little disappointed by Ayu's less-than-tough actions, as he smacked his lips and looked at Karman, saying, "Old buddy, what on Earth is wrong with you?"

After listening, Karman nodded and then shook his head, contemplating for a while before saying, "I think I'm beginning to understand why Sentulu used to say that war alone can't solve problems!"

With his eyes slightly shining, Karman looked at Joe Ga and continued, "Boss, if you let those who should live survive and then give them a little hope, the world will beco different, right?"

Joe Ga, taken aback for a mont, also nodded and then shook his head, replying, "In theory, there's no problem, but there are a lot of difficulties in practical application.

Once we've solved the survival issues for so people, we'll face even more problems.

When they lack food and clothing, a full stomach is all they want, but once they no longer worry about food and clothes, they'll start wanting more."

Continuing, Joe Ga looked at Karman and said seriously, "Old buddy, we aren't saviors. We can only take the first step because 'the right to survival' and 'food and warmth' are needs without controversy.

Once those needs are t, you'll find that people beco peculiar, and even the definition of 'happiness' will change.

'Hope' is a ray of light in dark clouds, but the reality is that not many people can truly grasp it; most can only go with the flow.

We can't change the world; most of the ti, we can only adapt to this diverse world!"

Karman didn't quite understand what Joe Ga was saying. After a long thought, he replied, "As long as the enemy is all dead, there will be no more war!

And once there's no more war, people can look up and see that light, right?"

Joe Ga really wanted to tell Karman that 'no more war' was just the beginning and that it took a lot more to turn people towards the sunshine.

In this era of rampant consurism and advanced communication, when the enormous gap in living standards is displayed before everyone, when people feel hopeless and helpless because they can't keep up regardless of their efforts, what can they do?

Africa missed the chance of industrialization. Unless a miracle worker descends to lead them in a shortcut to developnt, this place will always be at the resource-providing end of the global village.

However, he didn't really want to say this, as he thought he should let Karman have so illusions about the future.

Seeing Karman display a humanistic radiance for the first ti, Joe Ga nodded and said, "You're right; no matter what the future holds, 'not waging war' is the foundation of everything.

Central Africa isn't at war now, and it's getting better. What the future holds, we cannot know.

But a good beginning is essential for the hope of a good ending!"

After hearing this, Karman thought long and hard, then earnestly nodded and said, "First, we need to kill off all the enemies, only then can there be hope without war!"

At that mont Joe Ga realized Karman still hadn't grasped the core of what Sentulu ant by 'war alone can't solve problems.'

But what he said wasn't wrong either—'when all the enemies are dead, there will be no more war'!

Looking at the sowhat excited Karman, Joe Ga picked up a magazine from the ground, tapped it, then tucked it into his chest pocket, and smilingly said, "It's almost ti to wrap things up. Let's all get ready. As soon as the terrorists start their breakout, we'll go in and rescue those civilians.

This ti we're not going to fight; we'll leave the fighting to the Aricans and the French. We'll go and sow hope."

Speaking, Joe Ga turned around and pinched 'Kitten's' admiring face, making her smile, and then laughingly said, "To be honest, compared to listening to those madn's roars and howls, I prefer to see smiles.

I'm not a savior, but this is my territory right now, and I want most people here to live with dignity.

The more people who can do that, the more money I'll make, and the more it proves that the path I've taken is the right one!"

Kitten, like an able sweetheart, clung to Boss Qiao's arm and nodded, saying, "You must be right; whoever disagrees, we'll just take them out!"

Boss Qiao laughed heartily, proudly asserting, "That's how I feel too. Those bumpkins could never be our rivals."

Then Joe Ga picked up the radio and while talking to Antar, he said, "Notify the people from the National Army to send a drone to keep an eye on this area for .

I'll inform those anxious Arican and French soldiers to set up a few traps.

We'll only do this kind of thing this once—I've overestimated my patience. Next ti we should do it the Dragon Gecko way.

A dead enemy is the best kind of enemy!"

Compared to the clingy Kitten, Nis was both concerned and amused as she caressed Boss Qiao's cheek, saying, "This isn't the right job for you. Let others handle this kind of thing next ti. You should be doing sothing more aningful!"

After sending commands to Zahovic via the radio, Joe Ga wrapped his arms around Nis, kissed her on the forehead, and laughing said, "So things I have to do myself to be sure they're right.

I know the pressure you were under before. 'Returning tenfold' isn't just a slogan!

We're not normal people. You've done so much for . If holding a gun on the front line helps you relax, then I think, why not?

There are plenty of aningful things to do, and they won't miss sticking my foot in..."
