337: Chapter 321 Personnel in Position 337: Chapter 321 Personnel in Position The French were quite formidable in the rcenary sector before, possibly because of the existence of the French Foreign Legion.
There were several French nas among those legendary rcenaries, and among those who could be called Kings of rcenaries, the French were the most nurous.
Of course, that was back in the 70s and 80s of the last century.
Now, the French are not up to par.
Why ntion the French now?
The reason is simple.
While Gao Yi was recruiting everywhere, Marina also made a phone call.
“There’s a rcenary group, all ford by ex-mbers of the French Foreign Legion.
They had always been with the Three-leaf Jungle Company in the United States.
They just recently ended their operations in Iraq and withdrew to start their own firm called Tactical Support, consisting of twelve mbers, exactly one squad.
If you want to use them, you can contact them now.”
Just when he needed personnel, there happened to be an ex-Foreign Legion squad, which had worked for a US PMC and was now starting their entrepreneurial venture.
They could be just right for Gao Yi’s needs.
But why did it feel so coincidental?
Though it seed unlikely that Marina would set him up, the timing of Tactical Support Company’s arrival was too perfect, and Gao Yi didn’t want to use it.
Gao Yi couldn’t help but say on the phone, “Is this company reliable?
Isn’t their appearance a bit too coincidental?”
Marina softly said, “Their background is quite clear.
Their leader, who is also the CEO, always worked with Three-leaf Jungle.
They are combat-effective.
If you need manpower, you can use them.
I can assure you they have no ties with the CIA, do you understand what I an?”
Gao Yi said in surprise, “So, this is your team?
The private military force that you support building?”
Marina neither confird nor denied, simply saying, “I am very concerned about your safety, and I would rather see you again than hear that you’ve been killed.
So, you know, just offering a little help.
Of course, whether you use them is up to you.
Goodbye, and I await your good news.”
Care from France.
After hanging up, Marina had left a phone number that could be contacted at any ti.
If Gao Yi wished, he could have the support of a small rcenary group or company largely comprised of foreigners.
Suddenly, Gao Yi slapped his thigh and said, “Tactical Support Company, that’s a good na.
Why do we have to be called a rcenary group?
Wouldn’t ‘Warhamr Tactical Company’ be nice?”
Feng Biao helplessly said, “Because a rcenary group and a security company offer different services.
Of course, you have to call it a rcenary group on the Dark Web, but I think maybe it’s not the ti to worry about the na.”
Gao Yi asked Feng Biao, “So, do we use them?”
After thinking for a while, Feng Biao said, “Forget it, during warfare it’s actually quite taboo to have overly complex sources of soldiers.
If the situation gets bad and one person runs, others might follow.
It’s better to stick with familiar rcenary groups that have good synergy.
It’s less likely to fall apart.”
Listening to Feng Biao was wise, but having another hiring option was good to keep.
He stored Marina’s number and continued with their plans.
To go back and finalize things with Peterlov.
War Axe is elite, Lego is just like its na—interlocking and piecing together.
Peterlov could muster up dozens of n at any ti in Baghdad, which proved his considerable strength, possibly ranking close to those large and super-sized PMC companies in the United States.
On his subsequent visit to Peterlov’s mansion, Gao Yi received an even warr welco because a returning custor ant that the deal was definitely on.
Dealing with Peterlov was much more pleasant than with Sherkin.
Situated on the couch once again, Gao Yi cut straight to the point, “The people from War Axe rcenary Group and Lego rcenary Corps.”
Peterlov smiled and said, “Of course, they are already here.”
Peterlov beckoned a few people over.
“This here is the leader of the War Axe rcenary Group, Donkey.”
There aren’t many intellectuals in the rcenary community, and nicknas are not intended to be elegant; moreover, they are mostly given by others.
But it was rare to have a nickna like Donkey for a rcenary group leader.
Donkey looked to be sowhere between thirty and forty years—short by Russian standards, probably around 175 cm.
But he was very robust with the kind of muscles that could stretch out the sleeves.
His beard wasn’t long, but it seed he hadn’t shaved for two or three days.
On his feet, he wore a pair of black tactical boots from Adidas, and his pants were sand-colored tactical trousers tucked into his boots.
Adidas GSG9 tactical boots, rare.
If it were not for needing to know about makeup, fashion, and certain specific clothing as essential knowledge for Gao Yi, he probably wouldn’t have recognized them.
His shirt was a black short-sleeve T-shirt, not very form-fitting, but Donkey’s arms still made the T-shirt tight, which was quite intimidating.
Gao Yi politely extended his hand to Donkey and smiled, “Wind Knight, pleased to et you.”
Gao Yi took the initiative to be friendly and offered Donkey his hand, but Donkey just casually saluted with his hand at his forehead and said in a heavily accented English, “Hello.”
Gao Yi withdrew his hand.
Peterlov pointed at a man next to the Donkey, who was much taller and looked equally strong, though older, saying, “This is the Vice Commander of the War Axe rcenary Group, Moose.”
A Donkey, a Moose—the leaders from the War Axe rcenary Group were quite interesting.
Gao Yi nodded again with a smile, “Hello.”
Donkey wasn’t much of a talker, and this Vice Commander Moose didn’t even speak; he just nodded at Gao Yi without saying a word.
It seed that Moose was at least fifty, his facial expression one of numb calmness, though Gao Yi thought he lacked the vibe he had sensed from a few people with Sherkin.
Though of similar age, Moose did not give off an eerie feeling.
There was also a man in his thirties next to them, and Peterlov said solemnly, “This is the Commander of the Lego rcenary Corps, Arctic Bear.”
All animals, but this ti, the commander of the Lego rcenary Corps took the initiative to reach out his hand to Gao Yi, saying politely, “Hello.”
At that mont, Gao Yi could see that both Donkey and Moose slightly curled their lips, seemingly disdainful of this Lego’s Arctic Bear.
After the introductions, Gao Yi sat down and then he spoke seriously, “Gentlen, tell about your equipnt.
We might need to face an assault team with heavy armor, and I hope you have suitable and sufficient equipnt.”
Donkey still spoke in heavily accented English, “We have two snipers, one using a 8.6mm caliber T5000 sniper rifle, and the other a 12.7mm caliber Barrett Sniper Rifle, powerful enough.
We also have two machine gunners using PKM machine guns, but if necessary, we can switch to 12.7mm heavy machine guns, although that would take the spots of assault riflen.”
Vice Commander Moose finally spoke, his voice booming, “Our assault riflen are the best, the bravest.”
With heavy armor, then two large-caliber machine guns, and two large-caliber sniper rifles would be enough, but for real indoor fighting, machine guns and sniper rifles are obviously not suitable.
Gao Yi imdiately said, “What if the enemy engages in indoor combat?”
Donkey took a breath and said, “We won’t give them that opportunity, but if it really cos to indoor fighting, we all are equipped with bullet-proof vests, so we won’t be afraid of them.”
Gao Yi waved his hand and continued, “I an, to annihilate the enemy completely, indoor combat should be defensive, but might also require offense.
I hope you can give detailed descriptions of your weapons and tactics to ensure they et my needs.”
At this, Moose didn’t hesitate, “Simple.
If rifles aren’t effective, then use explosives, directional bombs, hand grenades, explosives—we’ve fought many close-quarters battles and indoor combats, and we’re not afraid of these.”
Gao Yi was pleased and said to Moose, “So, you’ll be well-equipped with enough explosives, right?
You don’t use rocket launchers and grenade launchers?”
Donkey and Moose exchanged glances, whispered sothing in Russian, and then Donkey spoke very seriously, “We’ll choose our equipnt based on our habits; we can handle all situations.
You just tell us what to do, don’t micromanage our equipnt choices.”
Temperantal indeed, Gao Yi nodded and then addressed the commander of the Lego Group, “What about you?”
“Of course, we also select our equipnt based on combat needs.
If you think we need more RPGs, more hand grenades, then we’ll use more.”
Arctic Bear said politely, “We can provide ten rocket launcher shooters; we have plenty of RPG7s.”
“Can heavy machine guns be used?”
Arctic Bear smiled, “Of course, many of our people have experience with heavy machine guns.
Who doesn’t know how to use them?”
A temperantal special forces and a well-tempered conventional army, that’s probably the difference.
Gao Yi was satisfied with the War Axe, and as for the Lego rcenary Corps, well, a group providing basic manpower, mainly to increase numbers, couldn’t ask for too much.
Numbers are still important, so Lego had to be utilized.
Gao Yi nodded and said, “Good, I’m paying.
The ti fra is the coming half month, combat could occur anyti.
I need you to be prepared, able to arrive at the battlefield I designate at any mont.
We’ll discuss the specifics later.”
Donkey said impassively, “Five million.”
Donkey hadn’t asked how many were the enemy or whom they were fighting.
Their rcenary group’s starting price was two million, and now he asked for five million.
Gao Yi was prepared to pay ten million for War Axe, but Donkey’s asking price was five million, lower than expected.
Peterlov bead and said, “Good, for the benefit of both parties, please pay the commission to , plus ten percent fee.”
Gao Yi found it a good deal; he nodded and said, “Deal, transfer the money.”
