“Moreover, as soon as you have reverse-slope fortifications, it would be even more difficult for the other party to bombard or launch an attack on your base. Even if they could break into the valley, your soldiers would be able to cover the entire area with firepower from the reverse-slope fortifications from halfway up the mountain. That way, the opponent would never be able to come out alive.”As soon as Hamed, who was on the other end of the line, heard this, his eyes lit up instantly.Meanwhile, Charlie continued, “As long as you strengthen your defenses and turn yourself into an iron bucket, they will certainly give up on dealing with you and choose to go to war with other opposition forces instead when they realize that they will not be able to defeat you. You should also try not to take the initiative to launch an attack. Instead, you should simply hide in your own base to defend yourself when the enemy comes, and attack when the enemy is retreating. That way, you would not on

The relatively slow military development, weak military strength, and low military quality were the most common problems in some small war-torn countries.There was a huge disparity in the economic strength between the countries, and the disparity in their military strength was even more shocking.Hamed himself was not from a real military school. In addition, he was from a relatively backward and chaotic environment, so he did not have a strategic mind at all.The only strategy he could think of was to live as long as possible.The reason why his army had not been wiped out in the encirclement and suppression two days ago was also due to errors in the government’s intelligence. They had thought that the village was just a small stronghold, but they did not expect it to be Hamed’s base camp. Moreover, Hamed’s base was easily defendable and difficult to attack. So, that was the reason why their attack had failed.However, the fact that it was easy to defend and difficult to attack

Hamed hurriedly asked, “Brother, what about the second and third phases, then?”Charlie said, “The second phase is for you to double the number of your fortifications. You have to make sure that at least half of your soldiers will be able to hide directly in the permanent fortifications. That way, even if your opponent is going to launch a fierce and intensive artillery and firearms attack, the lives of your soldiers will certainly be preserved in these permanent fortifications.”“As for the third phase, you need to make it so that these soldiers can survive in these permanent fortifications for a very long time. You would have built even more fortifications, and you’ll have to build it bigger and bigger each time. Finally, you should ensure that there is internal communication on the fortifications on each mountain. Your fortifications can not only be used for defensive purposes or just to ensure your survival but they can also be used to store strategic supplies. When this is achie

When he heard Charlie saying that there was still a problem that he had to deal with immediately, Hamed hurriedly asked, “Brother, what other problem are you talking about?”Charlie said, “When I went to your place the last time, I realized that your base depends on diesel generators to generate power.”“That’s right.” Hamed said, “Diesel generator sets are fairly convenient to use, but the cost is just a little high.”Charlie said, “It’s not just a little high, but the cost is actually very high. The cost is at least several times more than coal-fired power!”Hamed hurriedly said, “I’ve been implementing the electricity-saving strategy here. During the daytime, we do not use, or we only use very little electricity. The ordinary soldiers only use electricity for basic lighting at night. So, our overall electricity consumption is not that high, and the cost is still acceptable.”Charlie retorted, “It is obvious that you did not think about the long term. If you have a dozen or even

As he spoke, Hamed laughed as he said, “Luckily, I happen to know a friend who is in the construction industry in Iraq. He has many construction workers under him, and he has long gotten accustomed to life with a constant war going on back in Iraq. As long as I give him enough remuneration, they would not refuse even if I were to ask them to go and dig a hole on the moon. I’ll contact him shortly and ask him to send some men over as soon as possible!”Charlie said, “It’s good that you have this connection, then. In fact, this kind of permanent fortification that I’m talking about does not cost too much, nor does it require the application of any great technology. You can find a way to look for an old Oskian movie called ‘Battle on the Peak’ to learn and understand more about this. This movie will certainly be the best teaching material for your current situation. This is because you're also facing highland warfare, and there is very little difference in the weapons and equipment that

Charlie knew very well that an investment with a truly high return was no different from gambling.The risk would be high, but the profit would be even greater when the bet was won.The fact that he was currently making a moderate investment in Hamed this time was almost equivalent to his mother’s investment in those start-up companies in Silicon Valley back then.Only a small price had to be paid to invest in them, but as soon as they succeeded in the future, the investor would be able to reap huge profits and returns.Although Hamed’s armed forces were not a company, he was also a project with great developmental potential. If he were to succeed in the future, there would certainly be inexhaustible benefits. Therefore, Charlie was also investing for the future by investing more energy and providing advice and support to Hamed at this time.Moreover, his current investment was nothing more than a Healing Pill and some advice on strategic experiences. Not only that, the one hundre

Charlie looked at Rosalie before he said, “Rosalie, give Mr. Cameron your mother’s contact information before you go back to your room to rest.”“Okay!”***Meanwhile, at Moncolne, in the northeast.This small city was one of the coldest places in Oskia. Even though it was already the end of the first month, the lowest temperature in Moncolne could still reach negative seventeen to eighteen degrees, which was almost equivalent to the temperature of the freezer compartment in a refrigerator.During the coldest time of winter, the temperature here could reach about negative fifty degrees.The Harker family was one of the four major martial arts families in Oskia, and the Harker family was rooted in this county-level city with a population of less than one hundred thousand people.The ancestors of the Harker family were not native to Moncolne.They originated from the Johnstul Peninsula. During the ancient dynasty, they were a well-known martial arts family from the Johnstul Pen

With this regard, Holden, who was Yashita’s father and the head of the Harker family, appeared to look a little reluctant as he said, “Yashita, your eldest brother came and spoke to me during these past few days when you went to the southeast coast.”Yashita hurriedly asked, “Dad, what did my eldest brother talk to you about?”Holden sighed as he said, “To find Rosalie, the Harker family has sent out most of our manpower, and the various expenses that we have incurred during this time have amounted to one hundred to two hundred million dollars. However, there is still no news at all. We can forget the fact that we are delaying the children’s training, but since the Harker family has already fallen out with the Schulz family, we have lost our source of income. If we are to continue looking for Rosalie, our economic and financial gap will continue increasing.”As he spoke, Holden said helplessly, “The medicinal materials and herbs that we need for the children’s training amounts to th

The cabbie chuckled. "You're a local yet you're heading to Antique Street right away as soon as you land instead of going home? And you're still saying you're not trying to pick up a killer bargain deal?"Come on, man—it's not just you, I want that too. We cabbies work ourselves to death only for ten thousand per month at best while our friend over there made twenty million in one night. I could keep driving cabs for the rest of my life and still not make that much money."Jacob knew that the cabbie must be talking about Raymond and became even more miserable then, grumbling unhappily, "I'm going to Antique Street for business—I'm not trying to pick up some missed bargain.""No? Then you didn't hear what happened yesterday?"The cabbie was immediately curious, and without waiting for Jacob's answer, he exclaimed happily, "Look, man—it was so ridiculous not even Hollywood would put it in their script. There were these fools who were trying to sell an antique trader a replica, but th

It was nighttime in Dubai as Jacob dragged his weary body from the hotel back to the airport.As he was flying economy this time, he was left sitting at the hard bench near the boarding terminal, waiting for it to open.While he waited, his heart was torn as he tapped into the website of the Aurous Hill Charity Fund, found their donation account, and wired the entire 300 thousand he had made over to them.He had picked the Aurous Hill Charity Fund because the circles of antique collectors in Aurous Hill were all discussing how Raymond had donated half of the 20 million he had made to that same charity fund.After Raymond skyrocketed to prominence in Antique Street and became a star, it could not be denied that people admired his profound ability.However, there were also people who envied his skill in turning the tables just as there were those who were jealous he had made twenty million in a single night.Still, Raymond moved fast—soon after word spread that he had made twenty m

Elaine quickly asked, "Well, what if you can't get it done?"Jacob was apprehensive even as he sighed. "If they really pressed the issue, guess I can't even stay at the Calligraphy and Painting Association now… We will see. If things get bad, I'll just resign. I won't ask for much right now, just as long as I don't have to go to jail."Elaine nodded. "Then you should try to reason things out with Raymond Cole or ask for Charlie's help if push comes to shove. Being humiliated is still better than prison.""Okay!"-It was nighttime at Aurous Hill by the time Elaine and Jacob arrived at their hotel.Charlie and Claire had just had dinner, and Claire pulled out her phone, saying, "I just checked my flight app, and it says my parents should have landed two hours ago. They are probably at the hotel, so I'll check in on them with a video call."She had yet to open her WhatsApp when Elaine called her on a video call.Jacob was planning to check in with Claire and Charlie to put their

Hearing what Jacob had said, Elaine became anxious and pressed him as he hung up, "What's going on? You're leaving? But we just got here! My shoes have just caught Dubai dirt, so why are we leaving so soon—"However, Jacob was wiping the sweat off his brow as he mumbled quietly, "Well, at this point, I have to leave or I won't be vice president anymore."Elaine immediately fumed. "We've been married for half our lives, and this is supposed to be our honeymoon, yet we're just leaving? I've posted about this on social media too—there are plenty of people who're waiting for more posts on our trip!"And don't forget—we spent a lot on our flight tickets and our hotels! The hotel bookings can't be refunded either!"Jacob scowled dolefully. "Well, what can we do? Why don't you stay? I'll go home and get this sorted out first….""Well, how long would that take?" Elaine asked."How should I know?" Jacob sighed, uneasy and annoyed. "Don Albert is saying I have to go back and donate the 300

"But I spent 98 thousand on that bronze sculpture!" Jacob exclaimed in agitation before he knew it. "I made 300 thousand from it, and that means my profit was 200 thousand at best, but I'm supposed to return that to him as well?! That means I'd have lost my own capital too!""I can't help you if you can't bear to part with that money, Mr. Wilson," Don Albert said quietly. "In that case, you'll just have to handle it yourself.""Wait, wait, wait!" Jacob immediately became antsy and cried out right then, "Please, Don Albert! I'll return the money! I'll return it, alright?! The entirety of my profits—202 thousand, okay? At least let me keep the money I spent, okay?""By that reasoning, Mr. Wilson, when a phone scammer is told by the cops to return the money they've made from defrauding, should he be allowed to keep the money he spent on telco charges? ""Oh, I…" Jacob was left stumped and could not come up with an answer.Don Albert then pressed on, "Mr. Wilson, I've offered a prom

"Mr. Wilson, what you boys did was truly heinous!" Don Arnold growled. "I scolded Zachary myself when I found out, and I was the one who told him to post that statement!"Jacob was shocked. "But why, Don Arnold? Are you friends with Raymond Cole?""Never met the guy," Don Arnold replied.That left Jacob even more confused. "Then why are you taking his side?""I've been doing my best to clean up my image over the past couple of years," Don Albert replied coolly. "I rarely get involved in mob business or anything illicit, and everyone in Aurous Hill knows that Zachary is my right-hand man, yet he confessed to committing such a heinous crime behind my back. What is that if not sullying my reputation?"Jacob was left reeling as he didn't expect Don Albert to be so serious, but he quickly explained, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect it to affect you so terribly… It's all Zachary's fault! I wouldn't have been aware that Raymond had returned at all, but he just had to tell me and come up with

At this point, Don Albert could very well be Jacob's personal messiah.Even if he did threaten Zachary with calling Charlie persistently, he actually wouldn't dare call Charlie.After all, how would he start explaining that he was involved in a crime? And telling Charlie was basically telling his daughter—what would they think of him after this? Would he ever be able to hold his head high in the family again?As such, his only option now was to ask Don Albert and see if he would help.What he didn't know was that Don Albert was with Charlie, who had already anticipated Jacob's move.When Jacob realized he couldn't stop Zachary, Jacob would find someone who could, and Don Albert was the best man for the job!To no surprise, Don Albert's phone soon started ringing with a call from Jacob.Don Albert didn't answer right away, however, instead turning toward Charlie as he asked gingerly, "So, shall I stick to your script, Master Wade?"Seeing Charlie nod, he pressed on, "Should I

As soon as Jacob sent the voice message, Mr. Bay called.Jacob quickly answered, asking nervously, "How are things over there, Mr. Bay?""How, you ask…?" Mr. Bay sighed in exasperation. "The entire Calligraphy and Painting Association was demanding your dismissal as soon as Zachary Evans posted his statement, thinking that you have no business being the administrative vice president let alone have a place in the association."Even those officials came asking me questions, and you know how they are—gossipers, every last one of them, always finding out about the juicy stuff instantly even if it's really no big deal. The only excuse I have to stop them is that we don't have the facts, but this issue still needs to be taken care of."So, be straight with me. Were you a part of this? If you don't, do you have any definitive evidence that can refute Zachary's claims?""I… Uh…" Jacob stammered, unable to answer.He certainly wanted to say no, but he had no evidence to back himself up.

Jacob bellowed furiously, "Raymond Cole made over 19 million dollars! From my bronze sculpture! Yet you're telling me to refund that 300 thousand too?! You're just fucking with me, aren't you?!""Well, if you don't like it, just do what you like, then," Zachary replied calmly and quickly hung up before Jacob could answer.Jacob was left twitching and shaking endlessly, and there was no telling if it was from rage or fear.Beside him, Elaine quickly asked, "What did Zachary say, dear? Can he get that bronze sculpture back?"Caught by surprise at her question, Jacob flinched, and his phone slipped out of his grasp.As it seemed to hover in the air, he tried to catch it twice but failed, but Elaine managed to grab it.It was then that she noticed that he was sweating all over his face, and she promptly asked, "What's wrong, dear?"Coming to his senses, Jacob's eyes went wide with rage. "Zachary is trying to kill me! He leaked the whole thing to his Twitter page—it's like he's pulli
