Although Joseph was extremely angry, he knew he couldn't leave China before the Qingming Festival or his revenge plan would be delayed.
He put his hope in Walter but knew Walter might not be able to reduce casualties and completely solve the issue.
So, Joseph gave his solution: "Let's surround Hamid's base and isolate him, making him the target of a siege."
Siege warfare is a very cruel tactic, exhausting the opposing side until they run out of food, water, or ammunition.
The besieging side doesn't believe Hamid has many strategic reserves and predicts he'll run out of ammunition in three to five months.
Walter agreed to not let a single fly escape from Hamid's base alive.
Joseph said, "This is your chance to make up for past wrongs. If you fail, military justice will be administered."
Walter choked up and vowed to complete his mission, promising to earn back face for the Cataclysmic Front.
Joseph repeated his instructions and hung up the phone, knowing that even if Walter couldn't defeat Hamid, he would personally take care of him after the Qingming Festival.
With his super strength, Joseph was confident he could take Hamid's head even in the midst of an army of 10,000 people.
Walter waited for the rest of the Cataclysmic Front to arrive before launching a surprise attack, surrounding Hamid's base to death.
……
The two defeats soon spread throughout the mercenary world, collapsing their image of invincibility.
The mercenary world was watching the Cataclysmic Front's downfall, and many Western countries brought the news, mocking them explicitly and implicitly.
With the Waterloo of Cataclysmic Front's reputation, Hamid's deeds spread throughout Syria and the Middle East.
Excluding the fact that Hamid won two big battles, others saw him as a god from heaven.
As soon as the day dawned in Syria, a large number of stragglers came to defect, followed by several leaders of small armed forces who brought their own teams and formations to surrender.
The majority of these people had been worried about being annihilated, so after seeing Hamid's strength, they came to surrender for a chance to save their lives.
Within half a day, Hamid's base had incorporated more than 5,000 people, and by the end of the second day, the total number of people exceeded 8,000, with more than 10,000 people by the end of the third day, overcrowding the base.
