435: Chapter 432: Time to Get the Money 435: Chapter 432: Time to Get the Money They had come on foot through the rainforest, but on the way back, Gao Yang had no intention of walking all the way again.
Now that the overall situation was settled, it was time to consider how to return.
“Toad, do you see any airplanes?”
After Gao Yang asked through the walkie-talkie, Li Jinfang immediately replied, “We found two water planes, there’s a lake here.
The water planes are docked by the shore, but we can’t see a soul around here.”
Just having planes without pilots definitely wouldn’t do.
Gao Yang waved to Lucica and said, “There are two water planes here that can take us back.
Go with your people to the nearby residents and ask around to see if you can find any pilots.
Go now, and tell them, if a pilot is willing to come out, we’ll give him ten thousand US Dollars as a reward, paid upfront.
Go now.”
Gao Yang feared even if there were pilots, they wouldn’t dare to admit their identity, but with a substantial reward, the situation should be different.
Lucica and her five guides began to ask the nearby residents if anyone was a pilot.
After Lucica left, Gao Yang waved his hand and said, “Let’s clean up the battlefield, and do it quickly, paying special attention to the bodies of the Phantom Mercenary Group.”
Gao Yang didn’t join in cleaning up the battlefield himself.
He turned to Sirte, who was standing aside, and smiled, “What do you plan to do next?”
Sirte shrugged and said, “Of course, I’m going to rejoin my team.
Is that even a question?”
Sirte had truly been a great help this time.
Although he had joined temporarily and his original intention was just to compete with Gao Yang using shotguns, from the moment the battle started, Sirte had been acting like a formal member of Satan, playing a crucial role.
Most importantly, if it hadn’t been for Sirte, taking down those last two small buildings would have been a big problem.
“If possible, we’ll take a plane and land not far from Pailano’s camp.
I suggest you should ask Nate where they are now because if not, rejoining your team might be a problem.”
Sirte looked annoyed and said, “Anyway, we’re going to attack Pailano’s camp, and I could have waited near his camp to join up with our guys, but you have Pailano’s guides with you, which complicates things.
At this point, it seems that keeping it secret is unrealistic.”
Gao Yang shrugged and said, “Wait a moment, I need to make a call first to confirm how we’re going to get the money from Pailano’s camp and return to Pasto.
If my middleman can arrange a pickup for us soon, you could come to Pasto with us first.”
Sirte shook his head and said, “No, I need to find a way to rejoin my team first.
Make your call.”
Gao Yang called Ivan, and as soon as Ivan answered, Gao Yang immediately said, “We’ve taken out Teodulo.
We’re now heading back to Pailano’s camp.
I want to know, can you arrange someone to pick us up and take us to Pasto today?”
Ivan seemed very surprised and said, “You can return to Pailano’s camp today?
That fast?”
Gao Yang laughed and said, “We found two water planes that can take us back, but we haven’t found any pilots yet.”
Ivan was very surprised and said, “You’re in Santo Onos town, right?
Did you take control of Santo Onos?
I thought you’d have to run for your lives after killing Teodulo.
How do you have the time and opportunity to look for planes?”
“It’s like this, we completely wiped out Teodulo’s team.
Maybe a few got away, I’m not sure, but Santo Onos town is indeed under our control.
We have plenty of time to look for pilots, as long as they weren’t accidentally killed during our attack.”
“It’s a bit incredible.
You’ve taken out Teodulo and his troops?
How did you do it?
Okay, we’ll discuss this later.
For now, I’ll arrange for someone to pick you up at the same place where you disembarked last time.
Moreover, since you control Santo Onos town, it doesn’t matter if you can’t find a pilot.
If push comes to shove, I can send a plane directly to pick you guys up.”
Gao Yang thought Ivan made a lot of sense.
Since they had control of Santo Onos town, having Ivan send a plane directly to pick them up was also possible.
After laughing, Gao Yang said aloud, “You’re right.
Then I’ll call you back in a little while.
If I can’t find any pilots here, then you can send a plane directly to Santo Onos town to pick us up.”
“No problem, I’ll wait for your call.
If you find a pilot, then just go straight to Pailano’s place to collect the final payment.
After getting the money, please inform me immediately.
I’m currently in Brazil, but I’ll be rushing to Colombia today.
As long as Pailano has no objections, I can give you the money in Pasto.”
After making arrangements with Ivan, Gao Yang handed the satellite phone to Sirte and said, “Call Nate.
Ask him where he’s at now.
If they’re still far from Pailano’s camp, then you might as well go to Pasto with us.
You can wait for him there.”
Sirte nodded, took the phone, and walked away to make a call.
After a brief conversation in German, Sirte came back, handed the phone to Gao Yang, and smiled, “Our guys are already very close to Pailano’s camp, extremely close.
Remember to call him after you’ve seen Pailano and gotten the money.
We’ll attack right after you leave.”
Gao Yang was quite surprised and said, “They’re moving that fast?
I thought they’d need at least two more days to get there.”
Sirte smiled proudly and said, “That means our speed is faster than yours.
Alright, I’ll go with you guys.
After disembarking, we’ll go our separate ways.
You get the money, I rejoin my team, and then, after you leave, we start the war.
It’s a pity, though, we had a great fight this time but didn’t get much chance to see who’s better.”
Gao Yang waved his hand and said, “There will be chances.
As long as you don’t insist on settling the score during the fight, there’ll be plenty of opportunities.”
After hesitating for a moment, Sirte said solemnly, “Alright, when I’m not on a mission, I’ll look for you.
I must get the upper hand with the shotgun.
Also, I’m running low on ammunition.
You don’t have to fight anymore, while I’m about to engage in battle.
Can you give me some of your shotgun shells?”
“No problem.
I brought a lot of shotgun shells this time.
I still have over fifty rounds left.
I’ll give them all to you.”
As soon as Gao Yang finished speaking, Lucica hurried towards him and said loudly, “We found a pilot.
The house that Teodulo’s men occupied was his.
He was hiding out at a neighbor’s.
We’ve brought him over.”
Gao Yang shouted to everyone cleaning up the battlefield, “Guys, pick up the pace.
It’s time to get paid.”
