Mountain Eagle and his team of 20 people, were riding three assault boats, led by several Northern Brigade veterans, along a river, heading south into the Kosovo region.
The winter river flow was not very large, and the terrain on both sides of the river just entering the Kosovo area was relatively flat. If it were daytime, the assault boats would be immediately exposed to the border area scout personnel's surveillance.
This area is not under the control of local Kosovo armed forces but rather NATO troops...
Mountain Eagle sat on the assault boat, steering it while listening to his boss Du Shang's introduction...
"There is a contingent of about 800 NATO peacekeeping troops stationed in this area. Crossing eastward from here will enter the territory controlled by the Kosovo Liberation Organization. They dominate a large area in the eastern part of Kosovo, controlling most of the remote rural areas.
