683: Chapter 675 I’m going 683: Chapter 675 I’m going Ivan and Uriyangko couldn’t ask Gao Yang to undertake an extremely dangerous operation.
It was one thing for Gao Yang to be willing to help, but sending him to his death was another matter entirely.
Having followed Ivan for many years, Samuel understood the situation.
He said firmly, “I’ll use this gun and give it a try.”
Samuel had been with Ivan for many years, or else he wouldn’t have volunteered to take on an extremely dangerous mission with almost no chance of success.
Similarly, Ivan wouldn’t let him go to his death just like that.
“Doing this is of no use other than risking your life.”
After waiting for Ivan to speak, Gao Yang said with a wry smile, “That’s right, forget it, Samuel.
I know your gunmanship, and frankly, going there would only mean risking your life without being able to save Grand Ivan.
Using this kind of gun requires a feel for it, and clearly, my sense is better than yours, so I’ll go.”
Both Uriyangko and Ivan seemed shocked by Gao Yang’s decision.
Standing up, Ivan said to Gao Yang in a daze, “Hey, brother, I don’t know what to say.
I really hope to rescue Grand Ivan, but I can’t let you do this.”
Uriyangko also said, “Gao, as a friend, you’ve already done so much and so well.
We can’t give you the most dangerous task to do.”
Gao Yang replied with a wry smile, “If you had a better choice than me, I’d happily let someone else go.
But if you don’t, I can’t just stand by and watch; it’s not my style.
So, I know it’s dangerous, but I have to go.”
At this moment, Li Jinfang said in Chinese, “Brother Yang, let me go.
My pistol skills are not bad either, and I’m much more agile than you.
Even without a gun, I can handle this.”
Gao Yang laughed and shook his head, “Save it.
Are your fists and kicks as fast as bullets?
What if the four men guarding Grand Ivan aren’t together, and each is in a different corner?
What would you do then?”
After speaking, Gao Yang gestured with his hand, “Time is pressing; we can’t afford to delay any longer.
Now, I will address a critical issue.”
After a moment of contemplation, Gao Yang spoke solemnly, “Ivan, we’re going to attack the American Consulate General.
It might not be a big issue for you, but for us, if our identities are exposed, it means we can’t stay in America, and you know, most of us live in America right now.
So, you have to solve this problem for me; that’s my only request.”
Ivan replied very seriously, “Rest assured, I promise you, your identities will not be leaked.
No one will connect what happens here to you.
And during the attack on the Consulate General, our men will go first.
Unless it’s absolutely necessary to use your manpower, your men will not have to participate in the attack on the Consulate General.”
Ryan also said with a smile, “If needed, I can help with the cleanup work.
Rest assured, Ivan and his men cannot hide their identities, but for you, I can ensure no one will suspect you.
That’s my job.”
Gao Yang waved his hand, “Alright, that settles it.
Let’s move on to the next step.”
Medusa, holding a document, looked it over and said gravely, “I have Professor Barnard’s information, but just having the information isn’t enough.
I need to see him in person.
If we’re going to proceed with the current plan, then we should be taking control of Professor Barnard by now.
If we’re going to send Ram into the Consulate General, I have a lot of work to do.”
Checking his watch, Ivan asked, “Alright, should we bring Professor Barnard here, or what should we do?”
Medusa shook her head, “Everything must be carried out confidentially; we can’t bring him here.
It would be best to find a safe and quiet place near the hospital.”
Uriyangko said solemnly, “That’s no problem.
We can even find a sufficiently secure place in the hospital.”
Medusa nodded and said, “Okay, we need to find a room that’s quiet enough and must be well-lit, preferably with natural light.
I’ll take all the stuff to the hospital and bring a few people with me.
We need to leave as soon as possible.”
Ryan said in a deep voice, “We can now start arranging the assault team for the Consulate General.
It’s essential to set up a base for the assault as close to the consulate as possible.
According to intelligence, the CIA plans to intercept Professor Barnard on his way home from work.
Optimistically, we have six hours to prepare, so we need to hurry.”
At a command, the men of Ivan and Uriyangko sprang into action.
Apart from Gao Yang, the members of the Satan Mercenary Corps would also wait near the Consulate General with Ivan’s team.
The first wave of the attack would be launched by Ivan and Uriyangko’s men.
If their assault proved disadvantageous, members of the Satan Mercenary Corps would take over.
Plans were plans, and Gao Yang feared that his own people would rashly attack first because he was inside the Consulate General.
So just before leaving, Gao Yang specifically gathered everyone in a room.
“After I leave, Big Dog will be in command.
All operations will follow Big Dog’s orders.
Under no circumstances are you to be the first to enter the Consulate General.
Unless absolutely necessary, you should not participate in the assault.
Any questions?”
After Gao Yang finished speaking, Eileen said in a low voice, “Commander, I don’t trust the Russians’ capability.
I request to be part of the first group to enter the Consulate General, Commander!”
Gao Yang shook his head and said, “Not allowed.
Ivan and Uriyangko’s men are not weak.
To rescue Grand Ivan, my presence is enough.
We’ve already done plenty.
That’s it, there’s nothing more to say.
Just follow Big Dog’s command, and if Ivan’s men encounter difficulties during the assault, you can take over the organization of the attack, but do not be the first to go in.”
The first wave of attack always carries the greatest risk, and the men of the CIA Special Activities Division are not to be underestimated.
He had already taken on the most dangerous mission, so the attack, which was likely to incur the highest casualties, should not fall on his people again.
Gao Yang looked at his watch and said, “Little Donnie will arrive soon.
Perhaps he can bring the equipment before the operation begins.
If he makes it in time, take my guns when you attack.
If not, then it can’t be helped.
Alright, I need to leave now.
Remember what I said.
Do not enter first; it’s an order.
Big Dog, I leave everything to you.”
Glolov looked intently at Gao Yang and said, “Be careful.
If it’s not possible, don’t act.
Don’t risk your life unnecessarily.
If the situation doesn’t allow it, prioritize your safety over anything else.
Remember that, safety first, everything else is secondary.”
Gao Yang acknowledged, and without any emotional farewells, he left in a hurry.
Since he had decided to go inside the Consulate General, he needed to make the most of his time.
When Gao Yang emerged from the room, Ivan and Uriyangko were waiting outside.
Upon seeing Gao Yang, Ivan patted Gao Yang’s shoulder and sighed, “I don’t know what to say anymore.
‘Thank you’ seems too inadequate.
Gao, we may not meet again before we take down the Consulate General.
There are things I must tell you now.
Gao, if things look grim, don’t act.
We all want to rescue Grand Ivan, but that doesn’t mean you have to lay down your life for him.
So, if the situation doesn’t allow it, do not act.
Our gratitude towards you won’t be diminished because of that.”
Uriyangko nodded and added in a soft voice, “Gao, Ivan is right.
We’ll do our utmost to rescue Grand Ivan, but it’s not necessary for you to join him in death.
If someone must die, let it be us.
So, don’t be reckless.
Only act if you’re certain; otherwise, don’t.”
These words from Ivan and Uriyangko comforted Gao Yang—a sign that these two were not only focused on rescuing Grand Ivan but also concerned about his safety—as a friend should be.
After hesitating for a moment, Ivan whispered, “Gao, I owe you a life debt, and it’s still unpaid.
I know it’s not the right time to discuss how to thank you, but I think it’s better to tell you now.
I want to give you…
”
Just then, Medusa called out loudly, “Hey, I’m ready.
Have you finished your farewell ceremony?”
“Yes, let’s not talk about it now; we’re short on time.”
Gao Yang cut off Ivan, hugged both Ivan and Uriyangko, and smiled, “Ivan, if you want to thank me, wait until we’ve rescued Grand Ivan to talk about it.
I believe we can save him.
Goodbye, we’ll see each other again soon.” (To be continued.
