Chapter 42 Rocket Assault

The desert at night was exceptionally tranquil...

Jindawei's encampment was located near an abandoned oil well in central Darfur.

There was a water well here, and work sheds left behind by workers decades ago.

The main buildings of the encampment consisted of a long row of two-story buildings, a relatively new standalone brick building on the east side, and an independent warehouse on the west side.

Joe Ga turned off the vehicle's lights, and under the cover of darkness, he approached within 500 meters of the Jindawei camp without being detected.

After adjusting the direction of the pickup truck, Joe Ga and Karman loaded all the 80mm rockets into the rocket pod.

According to Nis, who was standing in the truck bed, they pushed the pickup a distance before stopping at his instruction, "This is the spot. The hostages are held on the west side. If we move slowly from this position towards the east and fire the rockets, we can cover their entire camp."
