Chapter 202: Wolf Pack Tactics

Chapter 202: Chapter 202: Wolf Pack Tactics

At 10 o’clock at night, in Moscow’s ’Marina Grove’...

Bolonicov’s pharmaceutical factory was right next to a large cemetery, separated only by a thicket and a chain-link fence.

The factory had ceased operations for the night, but guards patrolling with dogs, the electrified fence, and the constant flow of vehicles and personnel indicated that the interior was anything but tranquil.

It wasn’t until a black Bell 505 helicopter landed on the rooftop helipad of the factory office building that the outer gates of the factory were abruptly closed, then a group of armed gunmen in black replaced the original security personnel.

Crouched next to a tombstone and observing with infrared binoculars, Pigeon pressed his communicator and said after the helicopter landed: "The package has arrived at the factory..."

Inside the Tomb Guardian’s hut at the other end of the cemetery, Mountain Eagle, using the dim light inside the hut, spread out a blueprint on the table, pointed to the location of the office building, and said: "The first to sixth floors are the R&D center and labs, seventh and eighth floors are offices, while Bolonicov’s office is on the ninth floor.

If he senses something amiss, he can escape to the rooftop at any time and flee by helicopter.

There are nearly 40 armed security personnel inside the factory now, along with the original security guards, totaling to over 50 people.

Next to Bolonicov is a team of 6 professional bodyguards, and the factory also hosts an international mercenary force targeting Snowden.

According to the undercover’s description, this gang is well equipped and highly skilled."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle turned to Mi Lu, who had donned his Combat Uniform, and asked, "What’s your suggestion?"

Mi Lu was fiddling with the rather rare SVDK sniper rifle in his hands...

This rifle uses a bullet caliber of 9.3*64mm, a new medium caliber sniper round developed by Russia to fill the void between 7.62mm bullets and 12.7mm bullets.

Essentially, its role can be understood as a .338 super Magnum bullet.

The appearance of this rifle is quite similar to the standard SVD, with only a slightly longer barrel.

Mi Lu removed the magazine, sl[ipped the 9.3mm bullets out one by one onto the pad of his index finger to check them—if he found any disparities in weight or center of gravity, he would discard the bullet into the trash can.

Upon hearing Mountain Eagle’s question, Mi Lu, without lifting his head, said, "It depends on your goal.

If it’s just to take out Bolonicov, that’s easy...

Cut the power to create chaos, find a way to force him to evacuate on the ground, then we’ll have the opportunity to snipe him."

Having said this, Mi Lu seemed to remember something, looked at Mountain Eagle, waved his hand and said, "You’re the boss now, you decide what to do, and we’ll do it."

Mountain Eagle shook his head in response and said, "The unpredictability of sniping at night is too great, and merely killing Bolonicov won’t intimidate those big shots.

Rather than just killing Bolonicov, I’d rather consume all the armed forces here, and make Bolonicov pay for the messed-up things he’s done.

That’s in line with my plan!"

Hearing that Mountain Eagle wanted to escalate the fight, Mi Lu rubbed his temples and said, "You got a plan?"

Mountain Eagle, in fact, had already figured out the factory’s defense arrangement through Crow, and if he were to sneak in alone, he could easily enter the office building and even get close to Bolonicov.

But the problem is, he can’t set up an evacuation plan by himself, and once a firefight breaks out, he would be exposed, then facing the encirclement of all enemies.

The opposition isn’t just any gang, but professionals—once surrounded and with their movement space compressed, it would be nearly impossible for him to retreat unscathed.

This isn’t the age of cold weapons where, if I’m physically stronger, have more power, and better skills than you, I can rely on movement to face only one or two enemies at a time, and create a miracle once the enemy makes a stupid move.

It’s different in the age of firearms—even if you’re disabled, the bullets you shoot are still deadly.

Especially in indoor CQB confrontations, sometimes even if you clearly know where the enemy is, you can’t guarantee victory.

There have been tests conducted by some bored folks, several amateurs against the professional Seal Assault Team in CQB confrontations...

With identical equipment and the same level of familiarity with the room, and repeatedly switching roles between offense and defense, the professional Seals found it hard to ensure no injuries under the same numbers, and if the defenders outnumber the attackers, the likelihood of failure increases exponentially.

Of course, this is testing under ideal conditions where neither amateurs nor professionals are afraid to die, so the full power of tactics can’t be fully demonstrated.

However, once both sides of the battle are professional, it becomes a classic meat grinder, one even the Seal Six Team cannot afford to face head-on.

Anyone who has experienced real CQB combat will tell you that fighting in urban and indoor wars is like walking with your head tied to your waist, where beheading is a constant risk.

Mountain Eagle could perhaps carve a path out with the cheat provided by Golden Cicada, but the risk remains very high.

For the attacking side with the initiative to take such a risk, unless there is a compelling reason, it would only prove that there’s a problem with his head.

An attack plan without a retreat scheme, all fail!

And no one would support him doing so!

Seeing the somewhat concerned expressions of Butcher and the others, Mountain Eagle smiled and said, "Don’t worry, I won’t mess around.

My life is too valuable; I have to keep it safe to do more meaningful things!"

Upon hearing this, Butcher looked at the blueprint with a serious expression and said, "The distance from the chain-link fence to the office building is about 80 meters...

We might manage to sneak into the office building, but once discovered after entering, it means we will be sandwiched from both sides."

Then Butcher looked at Mountain Eagle and said earnestly, "Boss, we are too short on manpower...

To ensure taking over the office building and controlling Bolonicov, we need at least 6 teams of people or 50 experts.

The best course of action now, in fact, is just as Mi Lu said, to find a way to force Bolonicov to flee through the land passage and then ambush them en route.

"The most important thing is to destroy the helicopter on the rooftop!"

Mountain Eagle listened, shook his head, and then nodded, saying: "A simple ambush won’t be enough; there’s no suitable terrain around for cover. Not only is an ambush unsafe, but we also risk being eaten alive by the enemy due to their numerical advantage.

Moreover, what I want is a thorough defeat of Bolonicov and his people.

If we are the Wolf Pack, then we are now hunting an elephant.

For us, the best tactic is to drag them, to let them keep bleeding until they collapse and fall, allowing us to complete the harvest."

As he said this, Mountain Eagle scanned the crowd and said in a deep voice: "To achieve this goal, we first need to complete a few tasks...

First, take care of the helicopter, cutting off Bolonicov’s air evacuation route...

Second, when necessary, cut off Bolonicov’s external communications, preventing him from calling for help from Russia...

Third, we need to figure out a way to set a trap that makes them bleed continuously...

Let’s start with the first point. Do you have any good suggestions?

I have a way to deal with the helicopter, but it’s a bit noisy, so it’s definitely not the optimal choice. Do you have better ideas?"

When the Butcher and the others looked at each other, Mi Lu stood up and pushed open the window of the cabin, pointing to the Bell Tower of an Eastern Orthodox church not far away, saying: "That height’s suitable, and it’s only about 700 meters from the factory office building. I could go there..."

As he spoke, Mi Lu saw the worried expression on Mountain Eagle’s face and waved his hand, saying: "This gun probably won’t destroy the helicopter, but I can take out the pilot.

And I saw a Multi-barreled Grenade Launcher in the car; if push comes to shove, I can directly bombard the helicopter with grenades.

A helicopter without altitude is defenseless!

You definitely don’t want to startle the snake by hitting the grass, so letting me do this is the safest approach.

I reckon they won’t have heavy weapons, so I’m actually quite safe up there, and having a vantage point is greatly beneficial for your subsequent attack..."

After recalling the information he had scouted earlier, Mountain Eagle knew that what Mi Lu said made sense...

Mountain Eagle wasn’t a sniper, but he also understood that using a medium caliber sniper rifle to destroy a helicopter from a distance of 700 meters was somewhat unreliable.

But for a top marksman, using a medium caliber sniper rifle to take control of the space on the rooftop and eliminate the pilot or prevent others from approaching the helicopter was still possible.

At worst, the use of gun grenades could compensate, which was a method more in line with his thinking.

After thinking for a few seconds, Mountain Eagle looked at the Butcher and the others and said: "Do you have any better suggestions?"

The Butcher looked at Mi Lu with a slightly awed expression and then shook his head, saying: "No..."

Mountain Eagle nodded and raised two fingers, saying: "Secondly, we’ll need a signal jammer. I’ll figure that out; we still have some contacts in official circles, they should contribute a bit to our operation.

The third point is the most important: how to create a trap that will make them continuously bleed."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle saw everyone looking at him, and he stroked his chin, saying: "I believe Bolonicov must be very nervous right now...

The team arranged by the United States to take out Snowden must be out of place with his own team.

If we can find a way to draw this squad away from the factory, we can ambush them on the road.

Undercover intelligence shows that this squad only consists of 15 people. If it’s an ambush, we stand a chance to take them down, then try an encirclement and aid strike.

Once Bolonicov realizes that there’s trouble with this squad near him, he will definitely send people to check.

That way, we can take down two pieces of meat!

Once they start to fear, we will have our chance!"

After listening, the Butcher nodded slightly and said: "But we can’t control their thoughts..."

Mountain Eagle looked at Mi Lu and said with a smile: "We have no way to control Bolonicov’s thoughts, but the undercover can convey the worries to him.

At such a crucial moment, having a strong squad that’s not in line with one’s own views standing by is actually a pressure.

That squad itself might feel the same!"

Mi Lu looked at everyone turning their gaze towards him and waved his hand, saying: "Call Victoria yourself. The undercover is her person, she can find a way to contact the undercover.

Your idea is good, the only problem is how to solve the battle before dawn tomorrow.

Ultimately we still have to mount a direct assault, and we are short on manpower..."

Mountain Eagle could not disclose Crow’s existence to everyone, but he knew clearly, as long as Bolonicov stepped out of the office building, the battlefield would be one-sidedly transparent for him.

As long as part of the enemy is consumed and their morale is shattered, and relying on the pre-set shooting positions, he could move the Butcher and his men quickly like a true God of Battlefield, effectively suppressing the enemy.

The enemy lacks night vision equipment, so as long as the Butcher and his team don’t mess up, this battle will be a crushing victory!

Mountain Eagle shook his head and said: "No, as long as we break the enemy’s morale, I have a way to force Bolonicov to flee.

At that time, ambushing them will be a different concept.

I’ve finished sharing my thoughts, do you have any questions?

If you have any, ask now; if not, from this point on every word I say is an order, and you’ll execute it without any objections."
