Chapter 309: Chapter 304: Response_2

Mountain Eagle pushed aside Kate and walked outside, speaking to Sam, "If I were you, I’d be more cautious, because even if you succeed in the attack, you’ll still have to face the threat of mercenaries when you try to take away those important items."

Sam said with a deep voice, "Our duty is to face threats..."

Mountain Eagle smiled without saying anything but patted Sam on the arm like an old friend and said earnestly, "Good luck!"

Sam, a mature Commander, could of course sense that what Mountain Eagle had just said was meant to sow discord between them and Kate.

He would certainly defy orders because of it, but surely it would stir doubts in his mind.

Whether becoming a security advisor to the ambassador or a member of Seal Six Team, everyone is top-notch, and it is unreasonable for me to obey your orders unconditionally; we are the ones executing the mission, so you should grant us sufficient operational freedom and ensure there is no concealment.

The consequence of this is that to gain the upper hand in the internal battle for command authority, one must enlist external forces.

Mountain Eagle and the Thai military and police they represent are there!

Whoever can convince the on-site personnel from the Thai side to fully cooperate will have the upper hand!

Mountain Eagle, appearing as the weaker party, was employing a strategy of an open conspiracy...

The moment he turned the military and police resources into a bargaining chip that could shake the internal command authority of the United States, Kate and Seal Six Team would surely become divided.

Because there’s a detailed divergence in the goals pursued by Kate and Seal, a mature Commander must not only obey orders but also learn to fight for the initiative, otherwise sacrifices will be unavoidable.

A Seal commander who doesn’t dare to argue with superiors is not only unqualified but will also be despised by his brothers.

Mountain Eagle intended to divide them from within, forcing them to seek cooperation with the Thai military and police.

Then Taigore could calmly choose Seal Six Team as the partner for cooperation, effectively hanging Kate, who is a greater political threat to him.

And ultimately, all of this is still about taking down the terrorists inside.

Only now, Thailand can more comfortably look for opportunities in the process to grab more chips.

If possible, Mountain Eagle was prepared to make the United States and even England swallow a bitter pill and end up having to hold their noses and say thank you.

Among those held hostage in the small building were Hugo, the CIA Chief in Thailand, and Martha, the MI6 agent, who were both behind the maritime massacre in Kamui and the assault on the Volunteer Police office.

Mountain Eagle had personally witnessed the dreadful situation on the cargo ship, those underage children who were baked alive in the ship’s hold. The memories are still fresh in his mind.

He had long decided to make these two pay, but had not found the right opportunity until now, which he thought had arrived.

After freeing himself from Kate and Sam, Mountain Eagle began assisting Taigore in consolidating the forces around the small building, then slowly retreated...

Aside from key positions, most of the space was left for the Americans.

How many people does Kate have in total?

Special Service from the embassy 6, CIA field agents 12, CIA agents 4, two Seal Six Teams 14, and auxiliary personnel like assistants and drivers 8.

Such a number of people wouldn’t have a problem surrounding the small building, but once they are ’posted on guard,’ the follow-up attack cannot be initiated.

This is what happens when laymen try to direct professionals...

Had Kate secretly come to negotiate with Taigore instead of brandishing power with a group of subordinates, the situation would have been much better.

Now not only has Seal Six Team lost its covert advantage, but they also face demands from the terrorists.

Mountain Eagle didn’t care about their plight; he pulled over a 191st Battalion soldier who spoke English to translate, found the Red Beret Major Commander, drew a simple map of the surroundings, and deployed the Red Beret, who had not yet found their moment to shine.

A full retreat was impossible; they only moved back the police in front of the small building, but the key points around the building must be controlled by their side.

At the same time, they utilized the 500-meter radius Taigore had previously cleared, forming a strategic depth that could be exploited.

The Major of the Red Beret, named Chaisong, felt relieved rather than resentful towards Mountain Eagle’s arrangements.

Although the past two days had been easy, for the Red Beret, there was no opportunity to demonstrate their combat prowess.

Chaisong particularly wanted to cultivate a good relationship with the current Deputy Minister of Defense’s nephew, Taigore, but after arriving, he found his talents were constrained by the presence of Squad 191.

Now, due to the explosion at the sugar factory, some police forces had been diverted, and half of Squad 191 had gone to the sugar factory to cordon off the potential sniper.

No longer forced to crowd together or duplicate efforts with Squad 191’s members, if only the chain of command is properly organized, true combat power can be formed!

This is the comfort zone of a qualified soldier; the previous days, in fact, had been extremely tough for Chaisong...

Mountain Eagle effortlessly pinpointed the Red Beret’s pain point and resolved the issue...

Of course, Mountain Eagle hadn’t initially realized the Red Beret had such a problem, but when he noticed Chaisong’s expressions and attitude, he decisively took this fellow, with whom he shared no common language, to find Taigore...

Standing at the door of the command vehicle, watching Taigore hang up the phone, Mountain Eagle pushed Chaisong into the vehicle, then said to Taigore: "Authorize Major Chaisong to organize the Red Beret’s defenses around the perimeter.

If a real battle breaks out, what exactly should the police, Squad 191, and the Red Beret do?

We also need a clear chain of command..."

Mountain Eagle looked at Taigore and seriously said, "Buddy, you’re the highest commander, you first have to be clear about who to give orders to and what those orders should be!

The Round Table Knight’s attack has just begun, we must be fully prepared to withstand their assault."

Taigore was stunned for a moment, then showed a wry smile...

He was an administrative manager, skilled at directing cases and maintaining social order, but giving orders in combat was not his forte, otherwise he wouldn’t have concentrated most of the manpower around the small building.

Seeing Taigore look toward him, Mountain Eagle patted Chaisong on the shoulder and said: "Let the soldiers of Squad 191 protect your vicinity to ensure your safety, you’re responsible for coordinating the police via radio to maintain order around the area.

Tell your requests to Chaisong, and if a battle breaks out, he will command the Red Beret.

Buddy, if the Round Table Knight continues to act, our manpower will continue to diminish; to increase efficiency, we’ve got to let professionals do their thing!"

Taigore looked at Chaisong, who seemed a bit confused, spoke a few words to him in Thai, then the two had a quick discussion, and finally Taigore nodded in approval, conveying what Mountain Eagle had said to Chaisong...

Chaisong looked at Mountain Eagle incredulously...

In Thailand, without running errands or offering bribes, it was unheard of for a complete stranger in a higher position to speak up for you, something he hadn’t experienced since his promotion to Major.

Now he had, and moreover, he established a connection with the nephew of the Deputy Minister of Defense, the eldest son of the Pasok family.

His gratitude towards Mountain Eagle goes without saying...

Caught up in his excitement, Chaisong did not forget to stand at attention and salute Taigore to express his determination, then turned around and shook hands with Mountain Eagle, saying in heavily accented English, "thank you, sir!

We will certainly carry out the orders from our superiors with diligence!"

Chaisong’s accent was not right, and Mountain Eagle had to concentrate to grasp what the fellow meant...

He was sharing a part of the command authority, thereby acknowledging Mountain Eagle as a superior as well, meaning Mountain Eagle could also issue orders to the Red Beret through him.

Mountain Eagle didn’t mind these formalities, but Chaisong’s attitude was so earnest that he had to reciprocate...

Just as Mountain Eagle was about to praise the Major, a call from Squad 191’s Songpa suddenly came through the radio...

"This is Supa, according to information provided by the sugar factory, this morning 10 trucks took away nearly 30 tons of sugar from the warehouse...

Those who purchased the sugar are not their regular clients but came temporarily."

Upon hearing this, Taigore exchanged a glance with Mountain Eagle and said, "Shit, if we can’t find them, a major incident will occur..."
