The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family



Therefore, a large number of stragglers came to seek refuge with Hamed just after dawn in Syria.

Immediately after that, several leaders of smaller opposition forces also brought their teams with them to seek refuge with Hamed.

The vast majority of these people were worried that they would be wiped out soon. So, after seeing Hamed's powerful strength, they decided to come and seek refuge with him in exchange for a chance to save their own lives.

So, after only half a day, Hamed had accepted more than five thousand men into his base.

Two days later, Hamed had already accepted more than eight thousand men into his base, and the total number of people in his base had already exceeded ten thousand men. His entire base was instantly overcrowded with people.

Hamed carried out Charlie's instructions resolutely, and regardless of whether it was a small team of ten men or a large team of one thousand men, as long as they came to rely on him, that team would have to be broken up before being handed over to the leadership of Hamed's men. Moreover, aside from some of his well-informed old comrades in arms, almost all of the rest of the people were temporarily disarmed by his soldiers. The number of soldiers who had been disarmed was five thousand men, and these five thousand men were all incorporated into the temporary military engineering corps as they continued following the construction workers' instruction to continue opening up the mountain.

Since there was not enough automated equipment, this group of men had to simply use hammers to smash the ground and also use wheelbarrows to manually transport the rubbles out.

The main reason why Hamed wanted so many people to dig together was because the number of people in their base now was really too much. So, they had to hurry up and build a large number of reverse slope fortifications to ensure that this group of people would also have a safe shelter.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

When they thought about the fact that they were digging these reverse slope tunnels for themselves, this group of men was more hardworking as compared to anyone else. They did not care even if they were all disarmed. They only wanted to dig as many tunnels as soon as possible so that they would all have a place to stay.

The first eight thousand people who

came to join Hamed were all armed and equipped, but the rations that they brought with them were not much. On average, they would only be able to last for three to five days. However, it was a good thing that Hamed himself had sufficient strategic reserves, and he had more than enough food to feed two to three thousand men for two or three years. So, even if it was ten

thousand men, it would not be a problem for Hamed to feed these

men for more than a year.

Moreover, Hamed had also purchased a large amount of food from the traders in the neighboring countries, and the food was being transported in from the north by land transportation around the clock.

Charlie was relieved when he heard that Hamed currently had so many men under him.

However, just as Hamed's troops were expanding by several times and were all fully engaged in infrastructure construction, five thousand Ten Thousand Armies' soldiers detoured back to Northern Syria and cut off the land transportation between Hamed and the road fifty kilometers north of Hamed's base.

Only less than thirty trucks out of up to a hundred trucks that were transporting food to Hamed were sent in, and the rest were stopped.

Immediately afterward, Zayne then led five thousand Ten Thousand Armies' soldiers to directly cut off Hamed's land transportation from the south. After that, another five thousand Ten Thousand Armies' soldiers then seized several high grounds around Hamed's base, and they also began building their permanent fortifications there. It was obvious at first glance that they wanted to surround Hamed completely.

It was already too late by the time Hamed received the news. 4

The soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies had already completed their formation, and if he tried to break out of their encirclement rashly, he would definitely encounter an inevitably powerful attack.

When Hamed reported this matter

to Charlie, Charlie then replied indifferently, "You don't have to worry about this matter for the time being. The cost of their mercenary wages is very high. If they were to station ten to twenty thousand men to besiege you in Syria, it might cost them tens of millions of dollars for their daily military expenses. If it is really going to take up to one year, I believe that they will not be able to withstand it. What's more, if they really cannot take you down even after a year, they will certainly lose even more of their reputation. It would be even more embarrassing for them to continue staying there, so they will definitely retreat when the time comes."

After saying that, Charlie then instructed, "Anyway, your current strategic reserves will be more than enough to support you for a year. So, you do not need to worry about how they are going to surround you. There are just two very important things for you to focus on right now. The first one is for you to continue doing a good job of building up your infrastructure and strengthening your mountain fortifications. The other one is for you to be vigilant and to keep an eye on your enemy. You must not allow them to launch a

decapitation operation!"

Hamed hurriedly said, "Brother Wade, to tell you the truth, I'm not worrying about any of these. My only worry is that you said that you wanted to take Sheldon Schulz back to Oskia in a few days, right? How am I going to send him out when the time comes?"
