914: Chapter 904 Someone Wants to Block Us 914: Chapter 904 Someone Wants to Block Us Returning to their dwelling, Gao Yang first washed his hands and face.
He then removed his jacket stained with a lot of blood and disposed of it, and after they waited a while, Polovich finally arrived.
After entering, Polovich handed over something like a business card to Tolkien and said to Gao Yang, “All set, you guys can leave now.”
Gao Yang waved his hand, and those who were already prepared and fully armed stood up.
At that moment, Gao turned to Polovich and said, “There’s one more thing I need your help with.
Can you bury him for me?
Remember to erect a tombstone.
His name is Harrison.
Hey, Frey, what’s his last name?”
“Harrison Will, his last name is Will, and I only know he was from Texas.”
Polovich looked at Harrison’s body lying on the bed, shrugged his shoulders, and said, “I’ve done a lot of killing, but burying, not really.
However, since I owe you one, no problem.
I’ll bury him and put up a marble tombstone for him.”
Frey nodded at Polovich, saying, “Thank you.
I hope you can give him a decent funeral.
I’ll pay for it, please don’t refuse.
I want to pay.”
Polovich spread his hands and said, “Alright, no problem.
A decent funeral it will be.
I’ll send you the bill.
Now, fellows, you need to leave quickly.
Your safety window won’t last long.”
After that, Polovich instructed Tolkien, “Leave through Corridor A4.
The only potential issue might be at F6 Checkpoint.
If there’s a problem, show them the business card.
If nobody stops you, bring it back to me.”
Tolkien nodded and said to Gao, “Gentlemen, please follow me.”
Gao Yang didn’t move but instead said to Polovich, “Hold on a second.
Frey was attacked, and his arm was nearly severed.
I can’t tolerate such an attack.
So far, no one has died in this attack, which isn’t our style.
Most importantly, Harrison died protecting Frey, and this is a serious issue, very serious.
According to the principles of the Satan Mercenary Corp, we need to take revenge for him.
That’s what Frey owes him, and so do we.
But buddy, I have to complete my mission, and I don’t want to let those responsible get away.
You know, some issues can be settled with bloodshed, but for some, only death will suffice.”
Polovich shrugged and said, “You guys really have a strong desire for revenge.
Alright, I promise you.
I’ll take care of it.
What do you think about five deaths?
Directly involved, five men—enough?”
Gao Yang pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said, “We just left Israel, and inevitably that influenced me, so I think the Jewish People’s ratio of revenge is better.”
Polovich gave a bitter smile and said, “One to ten?
Do you think killing ten people will count as revenge?
Alright, alright, ten.
I promise, ten.”
Gao Yang said solemnly, “Thank you for your help, but no matter what the cost, it’s on us.
I’m grateful enough that you are arranging people for this.”
Polovich thought for a moment and said, “Okay, I’ll send you the bill.
Actually, it won’t cost much.
I know a lot of people in Baghdad, and there are plenty willing to do small favors for me.
No other issues now, right?”
Gao nodded and said in a somber tone, “No more, thank you, goodbye.”
Gao Yang waved his hand, and they left the building and got into the cars provided by Polovich.
Twelve people divided into four cars; Tolkien got into the first car, sitting in the passenger seat, and directed Li Jinfang as they drove away.
The Green Zone was large, referring to a vast area, so there couldn’t be just one exit.
Under Tolkien’s guidance, Gao and his team passed without many hurdles.
Even when they encountered checkpoint stops, just a few words from Tolkien sufficed to continue their passage.
After a while, Tolkien suddenly grabbed the walkie-talkie earpiece hanging on his ear and whispered, “Yes, boss.”
Then he turned back to Gao from the passenger seat and said, “There’s been a slight problem.
You might need to take a detour because Global Forces personnel are everywhere asking about your departure point.
Your route won’t be confidential, and it’s highly likely that Global Forces will block you outside the Green Zone.”
Just then, Gao’s phone rang.
After he answered, he heard Fellini frantic and fuming, “F**k, I just heard about your situation.
Dammit, how could you have gotten into a conflict with Global Forces?”
Gao said sternly, “What are you trying to say?”
“Shit, we’re here under a legal facade!
Understand!
You are nominally under ADKD Company.
Your actions will cause us a hell lot of trouble.
Understand, you idiot!”
Gao’s expression darkened, and he said, “I don’t like your tone, nor your words, Fellini.
I warn you, don’t talk to me like that.
Understand?”
Fellini’s tone softened somewhat, but he still said anxiously, “Alright, alright, I might have been a bit too anxious, but F**k!
What about the mission?
Right now, Global Forces is looking everywhere for you.
They want to terminate you, and ADKD Company absolutely cannot afford to start a war with Global Forces for your sake.
Now tell me, what are we going to do?
Alright, even if you don’t care about your own life, what about the mission?
We need to leave tonight.
Do you really want Mr.
Tomler to find someone to replace you at the last minute?”
Gao Yang smiled and responded, “At midnight tonight, I will be at the rendezvous point you designated on time.
Since the meeting point is already outside the Green Zone, what we do in the meantime is none of your concern.”
Fellini, frustrated, exclaimed, “Global Forces have more than two hundred people!”
Gao Yang said solemnly, “Then you needn’t worry about that.
It’s an issue for us to face, not you.”
“Alright, alright!
I hope you will show up on time tonight, but let me remind you, ADKD won’t provide you any help!
No help at all!”
Fellini angrily hung up the phone, and Gao Yang calmly spoke to Tolkien, “Alright, let’s resume our earlier discussion.
You were saying Global Forces plans to take us out beyond the Green Zone?”
Tolkien nodded and said, “Yes, Polovich just told me that Global Forces has summoned everyone.
They are worried that you will cause them trouble, so they plan to strike first.”
Gao Yang sighed and remarked, “Still not ruthless enough, they aren’t scared yet.”
Tolkien said coldly, “No, the fact is you’ve been too ruthless.
You frightened Global Forces.
They think you’re not just bluffing, but are actually planning on wiping them out.
So, they want to get rid of you as early as possible.
I think that’s a reasonable decision.”
After finishing, Tolkien said gravely, “Polovich said, if you are inside the Green Zone, Global Forces wouldn’t dare make a move.
But if you insist on leaving, you’ll face a great battle.
Whether to fight or hide, the choice is yours.”
Gao Yang spread his hands and asked, “How many people does Global Forces have, and what’s their combat capability?”
Tolkien responded deeply, “About two hundred people.
They’re a security company but often do mercenary work.
Their strength is decent, though their structure is loose.”
Gao Yang replied with a bitter smile, “Wait, are there really going to be two hundred people waiting for us outside the Green Zone?”
Tolkien shook his head and replied, “No, mainly those who participated in attacking you today.
They fear retaliation.
Aside from those still hospitalized and unable to move, nearly all of them are here, about fifty or so people.”
Gao Yang breathed a sigh of relief and said, “You should have started with that.
Two hundred people would be hard to handle, but just fifty?
No problem then.
We’ll just take them out; that’s pretty good.
We save money, and your boss is spared the trouble.”
Tolkien still expressionless, remarked, “But that’s fifty people, and you are just twelve.
You’re great fighters, but it won’t be fists you’ll be using now, it’ll be guns.”
Gao Yang laughed and said, “It’s fine.
I’m much more confident with a gun than with my fists.
Now, let’s talk about something more practical.
Do you think those Global Forces guys will greet us with heavy firepower?”
Tolkien replied, “Of course, it’s either don’t fight at all or if they do decide to take you down, naturally they would use heavy weapons.
Isn’t that obvious?”
“Alright.
Do you know where they are most likely to show up?”
“I don’t know, but exiting the Green Zone via Route A4 leads only to one road outside.
You would just have to choose between two directions on the road.
I think Global Forces won’t position themselves too far from the Green Zone exit, as they wouldn’t be able to block you effectively, nor too near to avoid interference from Green Zone guards.
With that logic, their ambush location can be conjectured.”
Tolkien gestured with his hands, “Leave the Green Zone, it’s a north-south highway, four hundred meters to the north is an intersection, and six hundred meters to the south is another intersection.
If Global Forces intends to intercept you, they would only set up ambushes at these two intersections, and most likely will split their forces to cover both.”
“Is there a possibility they’ll strike directly at the Green Zone exit?”
“It’s unlikely.
Engaging within the range of the Green Zone gates would draw an assault from the guard forces, making the situation uncontrollable, and it would cause a significant stir.
So, they probably wouldn’t dare make a move right at the Green Zone gates.”
Gao Yang nodded, then smacked his lips and said into the walkie-talkie, “Guys, it’s time for battle.
Global Forces are waiting for us just outside the Green Zone., Little Fly, get on the pickup, ready the rocket launcher.
Big Dog, get your machine gun ready.”
After thinking for a moment, Gao Yang again spoke into the walkie-talkie, “We’re inside the urban area, so we must consider potential collateral damage.
Big Bird, you should start with reconnaissance.
Worker Bee, if the scouting results show it won’t cause significant collateral damage, remember to bombard them.” (To be continued.
