At the rear, some Hummer Jeep are blocking the intersection of the surrounding roads, and in a building on the roadside, some wounded are undergoing simple treatment or first aid, while others who have been treated or are less injured are waiting for rescue vehicles or helicopters that will come to take them away. Firefighting is still in exchange for the outer edge of this area, especially on the west side, from the first people led by Pence, and then the Iraqis led by Hassan tried to bypass the town from the west side and were attacked. The gunfire has never stopped.

After that, Pence's counterattack, including the other rescue team that rushed to Alsabad, did not choose to go west, but followed the road all the way north. As mentioned before, they were completely eager to open up the place and then continue to rush north to Alsabad with their people.

However, in this town, the battle was much more difficult than Pence and others who came afterwards. The militants entrenched here obviously made sufficient preparations. After finally attacking the town, they were attacked with various attacks. For example, bombs that had been buried, rockets that suddenly flew out, mortar shells that would fall from the sky at some point. The most annoying ones were snipers, some hidden machine guns and even heavy machine guns. This made the U.S. and Iraqi government troops who were rushing to Alsabad paid a considerable or even heavy price. The most direct manifestation was to give the wounded and corpses in that room. This was also the reason why there were personnel guarding the south of the town. After all, they could not continue to attack with so many wounded people, and they could only protect themselves first to wait for subsequent rescue or the arrival of transshipment vehicles.

"Captain!" An American soldier came to Pence with a gun and said, "Captain, although I don't want to say it, but Rubin was asking me how it was going. I think you have to tell him this question more appropriately." Then he handed the satellite phone in his hand to Pence.

Pence took the phone and said directly: "Rubin, I am Pence."

"Captain Pence, I want to know how long it will take for you to leave Shahad town. Major McGiesen just got the news that the form of Alsabad is deteriorating, and the people we need to rescue are already very dangerous... So I want to know how long it will take you?" Rubin asked.

Pence looked ahead. This was not the first time he had come to urge him, which made him very upset. Because in fact, he wanted to leave here more than anyone else. If the people in Alsabad were really finished, all the efforts he made here would become worthless, and all those who were beaten to death were sacrificed in vain. Although the battle here also killed and injured many other militants, this did not have much significance to him. After all, these rebels did not know how many of them were, or they could not be truly eliminated. Only the tasks in front of him were truly meaningful. So when he heard Rubin's questioning, Pence's tone was not good, and he said in a stiff tone: "What we want to do is exactly what they don't want us to do. So if you ask me how long it will take, I don't know, and I can't answer you accurately, but my people are working hard to move forward and trying to open the road ahead."

"This is not possible." Rubin obviously couldn't be satisfied with Pence's answer. "If I responded to what you said, the Major would not accept it. The request now is..."

"Don't ask me for it." Pence interrupted loudly, "If you really want to get through here, you should send more people instead of just sending me a row." He said, looking at the person who just handed him the phone. "In addition, your intelligence is shit. There are more militants here than I can dream of in the most terrible nightmare I can do. But you didn't find it at all. I'll give you a suggestion now. If you really care about the people in Alsabad, you should send helicopters immediately and take a team of people there to rescue them, instead of urging me over and over again and again to ask me how long it will take. In addition, I would like to say, instead of asking me how long it will take, you might as well let the convoy transporting the wounded come here as soon as possible. Our wounded are now full of a large house, and if they can be transported away, maybe I can draw more people to attack."

"Captain Pence." Rubin was actually very depressed at the moment. He didn't expect that this night would become like this. Everything was developing in an out-of-control direction, which made him very uneasy, especially the task of contacting and coordination at the moment was likely to turn into a tragic situation. He was under great psychological pressure. So after Pence complained and felt slutty, his tone became stiff, "Then are you asking me to reply Major McGison like this?"

"Yes. That's it. You'd better have a recording..." Just as Pence spoke, the bombardment began again. Instead of continuing, he threw the phone to the man who had handed him the phone, "Lt. Is your platoon ready?"

"Yes, Captain. What are you going to do?" asked Lieutenant Terry.

Just as the American Pence arranged the task of continuing the attack with the mortar shells falling from time to time, Said on the northwest side of the town had just finished his phone call with Faisal. He stood up and looked at the place where the fierce fire was not far from him and said, "Most Americans have arrived in the north of the town?"

One of the people beside him immediately responded: "Yes. They are as thin and long as we predicted before."

Said nodded with satisfaction and said, "They were too anxious and too careless. Are our people ready?"

"It's ready. All the personnel, weapons and equipment are ready." The man answered immediately.

Said sighed slightly and said, "I have been waiting for such an opportunity for a long time. Haha." After chuckling, he picked up an AKM rifle leaning against the holiday wall and said, "Let's start. Tell everyone to let go of their hands and launch a fierce attack at any cost."

"I understand!" The man agreed and then contacted him with the walkie-talkie. Reresayed left the room with a gun and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

In the entire town, after a scattered shelling, two fully armed militants from the west side of the American Front in the dark quickly leaned towards the Americans at the command of Said and launched a fierce attack on the Americans.
