384: Chapter 382: Jack of All Trades
Gao Yang had long ago told Glolov to help find a good artilleryman.
After hearing Uriyangko’s words, Gao Yang was very interested and imdiately said, “I’ve always needed a good artilleryman, but is the one you ntioned a full-ti artilleryman, or a multitalented soldier?
My needs now differ from when I first started.
If he’s just a full-ti artilleryman, I’ll have to regretfully pass, but if he’s multitalented, then I must see his skills for myself.”
After a skirmish with the Angel rcenary Corps—though there was no full-scale war—Gao Yang had witnessed the power of mortar fire and had since wanted to find a good artilleryman.
However, Gao Yang’s original intent when looking for a skilled artilleryman was for them to serve as an instructor for the Skull Gang, not to reinforce the Satan rcenary Corps.
For an ultra-small rcenary Group, having an artilleryman seed a bit of a luxury.
First of all, whether it’s mortars or rocket launchers, they’re not easy to move, and the few people in Satan rcenary Corps couldn’t spare the hands to help carry the ammunition.
A 60mm light mortar might be carried by one person, but it’s not realistic to carry a significant amount of ammunition as well.
And without ammunition, a mortar is no better than a fire stick.
Jiang Yun and Zhou Zhou had already gone to the Skull Gang, so Gao Yang’s need for a good artilleryman was no longer so urgent, unless there was a mission that allowed for continuous vehicle-based movent.
Only then could a good artilleryman play a role in the Satan rcenary Corps.
But a multitalented soldier—that was different.
When there was a need for a mortar, he could perform well as an artilleryman, and when it wasn’t possible or necessary to use a mortar, he could still be a powerful force in combat.
That was exactly what the Satan rcenary Corps needed and what suited them best.
After hearing Gao Yang’s doubts, Uriyangko pondered for a mont and then said, “The man I ntioned hasn’t previously worked as a rcenary, so I don’t know him very well.
He’s Serbian, my friend calls him Tommy.
He served in the Yugoslavian military and later participated in the Bosnian War and the Kosovo War.
After the war in Kosovo, it seems he joined a militia.
He’s not young, but his experience is very rich.
I think he should be a multitalented soldier.”
Gao Yang furrowed his brow and said, “You don’t know him very well, do you?”
Uriyangko nodded and responded, “That’s right, I can’t say I’m very familiar with him.
This man was recomnded to
by my colleague in the European region.
Tommy has been with him for about three or four years.
But as you know, things are too peaceful in Europe now, there’s no war, and my colleague isn’t doing very well.
He has to lay off staff, and now that I’m one of Grand Ivan’s best perforrs, my colleague wants Tommy to work in my branch.
According to my colleague, Tommy is an exceptional artilleryman.
I didn’t ask if Tommy could be considered a multitalented soldier, but personally, I think soone who has been in two wars and fought against the Kosovo Albanians for so long can’t be just a simple artilleryman.”
Gao Yang couldn’t help but chuckle with a light laugh, “Hearing you speak so seriously about layoffs and branches makes
really want to laugh.
You know, it’s strange to hear such things from an arms dealer.”
Uriyangko replied nonchalantly, “You’ll get used to it if you hear it a few more tis.
Besides, if you think of us as a global trading company, you’ll find it much easier to accept.”
Gao Yang nodded and said, “Could you please ask Tommy so detailed questions for ?
Like, what’s his character like?
Can he handle roles other than as an artilleryman, like a gunner or a sniper?
Anything really, as long as he can handle light weapons and fight alongside us.
Of course, you should also ask if he’s willing to beco a rcenary.”
Uriyangko laughed, “No need to ask about his character; if my buddy wasn’t truly a good man, my colleague wouldn’t be thinking of finding him a good opportunity even while needing to cut staff.
And you don’t have to ask about the last part either; Tommy is eager to make money.
As long as you’re willing to pay well, he will surely be happy to work as a rcenary.”
After that, Uriyangko shrugged and smiled, “Watching you guys make a fortune, I’m starting to want to join your Satan rcenary Corps.
The key is you’re not stingy; if I joined, I’m sure I’d get a generous share.
If I ever stop being an arms dealer, I’ll co work with you.”
Gao Yang laughed heartily, “You better keep being an arms dealer; it’s a career with great prospects.
Besides, if you stopped dealing arms, where would I go to buy my equipnt?
We’re all familiar with each other; I wouldn’t want to start dealing with another arms dealer from scratch.”
Uriyangko smiled, “I really miss fighting side by side with you for the Gold.
If there’s another opportunity like that, rember to call .
Alright, I’ll make a call for you now.
Oh, wait a mont, I’ll go get your phone back.
Now that you’re Grand Ivan’s friend, you don’t need to leave your phone with his bodyguard anymore.”
Previously, when eting Grand Ivan, Gao Yang had to be thoroughly searched, and all electronic devices were taken away, to be returned to him when he left.
Now it seed that the search might be skipped, but at least Gao Yang was allowed to keep his phone with him.
As Grand Ivan’s confidant, Uriyangko always carried his phone with him.
After saying this, he imdiately called his colleague.
Uriyangko spoke in Russian, which Gao Yang only understood a small part of, but his surprise grew as he watched Uriyangko’s expressions change.
After talking for about fifteen minutes, Uriyangko finally hung up the phone, then looked at Gao Yang with an incredulous expression and said, “Gao, you might have found a treasure.
This guy is definitely a super multitalented soldier who fulfills your requirents.”
Gao Yang imdiately perked up and said, “Oh, tell
about it.”
“That guy is best at using mortars; he can fire precision strikes with his eyes closed.
He’s also proficient with 107mm rocket launchers and recoilless rifles, familiar with all Russian weapon systems.
He can fulfill any role within a squad, whether as a gunner, sniper, machine gunner, or RPG operator, he can do it all.
Of course, that’s not to say he’s exceptionally good at all of them.
But what’s key is, this guy is an expert in laying and disarming mines, and he’s extrely good at it.
Buddy, this is sothing special; he’s a real gem!”
Gao Yang listened incredulously, as a good artilleryman would have satisfied him if he could just act as a competent infantryman when there was no mortar available.
But what Uriyangko described far exceeded his expectations; Tommy was even proficient in laying and defusing mines.
This skill was very rare; laying mines was one thing, but defusing mines wasn’t sothing just anybody would dare claim to be an expert at.
