Mercenary's War
Chapter 2268 - 2244: Intimidation
Gao Yang put down the phone and said to the people around him, "Number Thirteen and their team have settled it."
Glolov glanced at his watch and then said, "The enemy has completely lost their core. They don’t even know who they’re supposed to protect. I think now is the perfect time to launch an attack."
Gao Yang scratched his head and said, "If we attack now, it’s just us, won’t our strength be a bit weak?"
Li Jinfang, with a calm expression, said, "Even with just us, it’s enough. The enemy is completely in disarray."
Gao Yang shook his head and said, "Mario’s house probably still has quite a few guards, but I’m not really concerned about Mario’s house; that’s just symbolic. What I’m truly worried about is Frank, especially since he’s the one Mario trusts the most. He will bring Mario’s body back. My thought is we must eliminate Frank right when he gets off the plane before he has a chance to escape, to avoid future troubles."
Pointing at Justin, Gao Yang said with a hint of worry, "Look at him, Justin is a great example of a salted fish turning over his fortune. We know now that Frank is Mario’s last core mission, but we don’t know how much force Frank has in his hands, nor do we know how severe his counterattack could be. If we don’t eliminate Frank in time and he hides, waiting for a chance to retaliate, it will be troublesome. Guys, if you don’t pull out the grass roots, it will grow back with the spring breeze."
Yarebin coughed lightly and said, "Indeed, Mario’s house is just a symbolic place, taking it doesn’t have much value, but Frank is our real problem."
Gao Yang waved his hand and said, "So, my idea is for Satan to prepare to handle Frank. As for Mario’s house, let the reinforcements sent by Grand Ivan take care of it, or simply wait for Justin to take over the Cicero Family and let him take Mario’s house, which is very simple."
Yarebin shook his hand and said, "No, although Mario’s house is only symbolic, it also needs to be taken quickly. Symbolic places or things surely have value; capturing Mario’s house is like Justin formally wearing the crown."
What Yarebin said makes sense, and Gao Yang knows it, but he is currently constrained by a lack of manpower and can only pick one target to attack.
Of course, Yarebin also understood the dilemma Gao Yang faced, and he smiled and said, "Why don’t we split into two teams? Satan goes to take Mario’s house, and we go to deal with Frank."
Gao Yang frowned and said, "Just Tarta and Vasily, is that okay?"
Hammer said discontentedly, "You’re ignoring me."
Tarta said with a relaxed expression, "Why wouldn’t it be? We just need to deal with Frank; we don’t need to eliminate everyone. As long as he’s not changing course mid-air to land in a different place, there’s no problem. This kind of thing is very simple."
Gao Yang stopped hesitating, stood up, and said loudly, "Alright, then let’s quickly clear out Mario’s remaining forces at home. It shouldn’t take long, and if we’re fast, we’ll still have time to support solving Frank’s problem."
Returning to Rome is for the final blow, and it’s different from before; now, no one is chasing after Satan. At this time, Satan is fully armed.
Gao Yang fastened his helmet, tightened his bulletproof vest, checked his magazine and guns, and said fiercely, "Get in the car, let’s move out!"
The place where Gao Yang and his team assembled wasn’t far from Mario’s house; driving there was just a matter of ten minutes.
Satan was missing four members: Yake, Jesse Lee, Number Thirteen, and James. As for Rebrov and Yuri, they were just tagging along and not capable of conducting indoor combat.
So the ones launching the attack were Gao Yang, Li Jinfang, Cui Bo, Eileen, Glolov, Tommy, Andy He, Albert, Andy He, Lucica, Jansen, Frey, Phoenix, Rafael, and Peter, sixteen people in total.
Although it was only sixteen people, none of Satan took the upcoming battle lightly. They divided into six cars and also drove two trucks, carrying all the equipment and everything needed for the assault, heading boldly and openly towards Mario’s castle.
Mario’s castle on the outskirts of Rome is built on a small hill. Although it’s not very high, the small hill is still the highest point in the vicinity, so Satan didn’t have a vantage point to establish a staging ground.
Along the road, when they got within about one thousand meters of the castle, Gao Yang was the first to get out of the car. He raised binoculars to look at the castle and then threw the binoculars onto the car seat, shouting, "Worker Bee, fire a few shells, let the enemy know we’re coming!"
Gao Yang wasn’t being completely reckless; rather, since they couldn’t ensure stealthy approach nor establish a sniper position with height and view advantage, they might as well openly announce their arrival and fire a few shells to declare their attack.
In warfare, there’s a specific way to do things and how to do them.
This time, Gao Yang wanted to present a grand formation with upright flags. He intended to use this from the start to intimidate the enemy and crush their will to fight.
Tommy quickly set up the mortar, constantly putting four mortar shells into the tube, and after firing a few rounds, he exhaled and said, "How long has it been since I last fired a shell!"
Gao Yang raised an assault rifle and shouted, "Drone up, Rabbit and Undying Bird provide cover, move forward alternately, go!"
With that, Gao Yang was the first to run forward along the asphalt road, with Li Jinfang on his left and Eileen on his right. The three of them were the strongest first assault group.
Frey, Rafael, and Peter were behind Gao Yang. Rafael was carrying a large bag that looked very heavy, pulling him back as he ran. Peter’s legs weren’t good, so he couldn’t run fast, making this group’s speed noticeably slower.
Frey needed to keep formation with Rafael and Peter, so he had to slow down. He turned to Rafael and shouted, "How much gear did you bring?"
Rafael, gritting his teeth and with a look of satisfaction, said, "I brought thirty kilograms of C4! If the people inside don’t cooperate, I’ll blow the entire castle to smithereens!"
Rafael had suffered a lot in Mario’s castle and hated Mario and his big house intensely. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
At this time, Gao Yang and his team continued advancing. They wouldn’t stop for caution until they encountered resistance. But suddenly, Jansen’s voice came through everyone’s earpiece, "Boss, everyone, I have some news that could be either good or bad: someone has come out of the castle waving a white flag."
