There were too many houses to choose from, Gao Yuan and Ashraf hid in a second-floor room of a half-collapsed house full of excrement; they looked out the window at the convoy rolling in from the south.
The convoy was mainly composed of vehicles, trucks and pickups, but at the lead were several tanks, which were headed straight for the artillery position Gao Yuan had destroyed.
It was clear from their formation that they were friendly forces.
Gao Yuan was both excited and relieved, and when the tanks stopped at the edge of the artillery position and people began jumping out of the trucks, Gao Yuan immediately knew for certain they were friendly forces.
