Mercenary’s War
Chapter 177 - 177 176 Misinformation

177: Chapter 176 Misinformation 177: Chapter 176 Misinformation Jacklan piloted the helicopter, circling above Tijuana with all lights switched off.

They had arrived a bit early, with over four minutes remaining before the assault was to begin, so Jacklan hovered a few hundred meters above the target building, waiting for the right moment.

Gao Yang couldn’t see whether Simon and his team had launched their attack.

To avoid drawing attention from the ground, the aircraft hovered about a thousand meters from the side of the target building.

At this distance, Gao Yang’s radio was already capable of communicating with Simon.

When there were just two minutes left, Cui Bo’s voice was the first to ring out in the earphones.

“The snipers are in position, with no abnormalities at the target.”

After Cui Bo had reported their status, Simon’s voice also came through.

“Team 2 in position, action to proceed as planned, we’re moving in.”

Checking the time, Gao Yang also spoke with a grave tone, “Team 1 in position, entering in one minute.”

Simon’s position was about a kilometer away from the target building, so they had to start moving two minutes earlier.

Gao Yang, being in the air, required much less time, so he had to wait a bit longer.

They needed to synchronize their attack as closely as possible, with the smallest time difference being the best.

With only one minute left, Jacklan turned the helicopter and flew toward the target building.

When they reached overhead of the rooftop, there were still about twenty seconds until nine o’clock.

But by the time Jacklan slowed down and hovered above the rooftop, it was exactly nine o’clock.

Since it was a civilian helicopter, obviously it didn’t have the special rigging for rappelling, but Jacklan didn’t need it; he brought the aircraft to a stop right on the rooftop.

Gao Yang was the first to jump out of the cabin door, quickly running towards the rooftop’s guardhouse.

The attack was progressing very well.

No gang would arrange to watch the rooftop, and Gao Yang and his team encountered no trouble during their descent.

Furthermore, their familiarity with the target building was hardly any less than that of the people living inside.

Gao Yang ran straight to the guardhouse, pushing the closed iron door, only to find it was locked from the inside—a situation they had anticipated.

Gao stepped back and Frey came forward, sticking two plastic explosives at two points where the iron door connected to the frame.

After quickly inserting a detonator, the four of them stepped back a few paces, and once Frey pressed the detonator, the iron door was blasted off its hinges.

Gao Yang and his team didn’t hope to penetrate silently, so they weren’t afraid of making a big noise.

Just as Gao Yang was the first through the small door on the rooftop, he suddenly heard Destin’s voice screaming desperately over the radio.

“Evacuate, evacuate, it’s a trap; Simon’s been hit.”

Gao Yang froze for a moment, but on hearing Destin’s warning, he should have immediately ordered a retreat.

Although his group was making great progress, Gao Yang had no intention of taking reckless actions.

Since the order to retreat had been given, the right thing to do was to pull out immediately.

However, just as Gao Yang was about to order the evacuation, he heard Arthur’s shout, “Simon hit, Destin hit, we’re pinned down, can’t evacuate, request support.

At least twenty people on the first floor, quite formidable, experts!

Cover our six!”

Frank went by the nickname “Expert,” and when Arthur called for Frank to cover them, Gao Yang knew they were in big trouble.

Gao Yang immediately shouted, “Support them, fight your way down from the top, it’s the only way!

Team 2, hold on!”

Gao Yang was shouting as he ran, and just as he finished his sentence, he had already reached the hallway of the fourth floor.

There he saw two men, panicked with pistols in their hands, running out of a room.

Gao Yang shot one in the head, exploding it, while Li Jinfang took down the other with a burst of fire.

The lights in the hallway were very bright.

After Gao Yang and Lee had each taken down a target, Glolov and Frey raised their guns and shot out the four main lights in the hallway, which immediately plunged it into darkness.

And in the moment darkness fell, their already activated night vision goggles started to work.

In that split second as the lights went out, Simon’s voice came through the earpiece once again.

“Intelligence error, repeat, intelligence error, the people on the first floor are bodyguards of the Candimon family’s number one person.

Key members of the Candimon family must be here, and Bob is very likely here too, repeat, Bob is very likely here.

National Bird, contact Morgan.”

Simon had to repeat the key information because his voice sounded like a leaky bellows, with a wheezing sound that made it almost impossible to discern what he was saying.

Upon learning of the major intelligence error, Gao Yang couldn’t help but curse in frustration, but he still rushed towards the best-positioned row of rooms following the route they had set during drills.

All the doors were closed, Gao Yang ran to the first door and fired a shot at the lock, then Li Jinfang kicked the door open right after.

Since no gunshots came from the room that was kicked open, Frey, who had a shock grenade ready, didn’t throw it in.

Although Simon’s team was in a critical situation, they had to proceed methodically.

If Gao Yang rushed to the first floor to rescue Simon’s team, it was very likely that, instead of helping to eliminate the more than twenty people on the first floor with Simon’s team, they would be ambushed and attacked from both inside and out.

Therefore, Gao Yang could only hope that their attack on the fourth floor would draw some of the gunfire from the first floor, thus alleviating the pressure on Simon’s team.

Seeing no one in the room, Gao Yang immediately moved onto the next door, but before he could fire at the lock, Glolov suddenly opened fire.

However, Gao Yang didn’t hear any alarm from Glolov, knowing Glolov could handle the situation behind them.

After a shot destroyed the door lock, Li Jinfang kicked open the door, and continuous gunfire erupted from inside the room.

Discovering resistance, Frey released the handle of the shock grenade he was holding and, after waiting two seconds, threw it inside.

Following a loud explosion and a burst of intense white light, Gao Yang instantly darted into the room, firing at the figures who had lost their balance and were staggeringly trying to recover.

Li Jinfang followed close behind, and in less than two seconds, the two of them took down all five people in the room.

The shock grenade thrown by Frey didn’t give the enemies any time to react.

The overpoweringly loud noise could disorient and knock people over, while the intense white light could temporarily blind them, which is why, despite there being five people in the room, they posed no threat at all.

With just a brief glance, Gao Yang and his team continued advancing to the next room.

Just then, they heard Glolov shouting, “Behind us!”

Gao Yang and Li Jinfang immediately turned their guns around.

They could hear people shouting in Spanish, rapidly running up from the staircase.

After briefly listening, Frey took out two fragmentation grenades, pulled the pins out with his mouth, and Gao Yang and Li Jinfang also each took a grenade.

Timing their throws with the approaching sounds, Frey signaled, and the three simultaneously released the handles of the grenades, waiting two seconds before throwing four grenades out together.

The grenades would explode three seconds after the release of the handles.

When they threw the grenades, the approaching crowd was already between the third and fourth-floor stairways.

The grenades detonated right above their heads, and the sounds of footsteps came to an abrupt halt followed by a series of agonized screams and cries of pain.

Hearing no one continue to ascend, Gao Yang whispered, “Big Dog, hold the stairwell and corridor, Toad and I will continue the search, Little Fly be ready to provide support.

Go.”

After quickly assigning tasks, Gao Yang immediately resumed the room search with Li Jinfang, but as they were about to breach the next door, a woman’s piercing scream emanated from a room between two adjacent doors, followed by a gunshot, causing the screaming to cease.

Gao Yang and Li Jinfang exchanged a glance and immediately abandoned the room they were about to breach, positioning themselves on either side of the door from which the woman’s scream had come.

The old routine: Gao Yang fired at the lock first, followed by Li Jinfang’s kick.

But this time, Li Jinfang couldn’t break the door open because it was reinforced.

Failing to kick the door down, Li Jinfang called out loudly, “Frey, breach!”

Hearing Li Jinfang’s call, Frey quickly took out a slab of plastic explosive from his backpack.

By the time he reached the door, he had already inserted the detonator.

He applied it right on the lock area, and the three men immediately stepped aside.

After the loud explosion, the reinforced door didn’t completely collapse but burst open violently inward, as if it had been kicked open.

In the moment the door burst open, Frey had already prepared another shock grenade and threw it in.

The grenade bounced off the now-open door and dropped into what appeared to be a large entertainment room.

With the explosion and blinding light from the shock grenade, Gao Yang and Li Jinfang almost simultaneously entered the room, but the instant they stepped through the door, gunfire erupted from inside.

Gao Yang felt a sharp pain in his stomach and chest, like someone had hammered down with a heavy blow, but he managed to step back only once before raising his gun to aim again, and shot down a person who was firing at them.

The room’s lighting was very bright, seemingly because the enemies knew Gao Yang’s team had night vision goggles, so they did not turn off the room’s lights.

Instead, they turned them up to the brightest setting.

Although the lights did not affect Gao Yang’s night vision goggles, the sudden brightness still caused some disorientation.

Fortunately, it wasn’t too severe.

Gao Yang’s targets were individuals holding guns, and as he continued to fire, bringing down the fourth person, he felt a sharp pain in his thigh.

Then almost simultaneously, he experienced a pounding blow to his chest, accompanied by a head-spinning, excruciating pain that caused him to lose his balance and fall backward onto the floor.
