Mercenary’s War
Chapter 252 - 252 250 Traveling Together

252: Chapter 250 Traveling Together 252: Chapter 250 Traveling Together Asan’s face still bore a frozen smile, and Gao Yang walked up to Asan’s corpse looking distraught.

After standing there in a daze for a while, he finally turned to the soldier who was left to care for Asan and asked, “What did his gesture mean?”

“He killed four people.”

Gao Yang nodded.

After looking one last time at Asan, he turned and left the barracks.

He didn’t know what to do there or what to say to Asan’s dead body.

Actually, Asan’s death wasn’t particularly shocking; too many people had died that night.

Once one chose to take up arms and fight, death in battle couldn’t be considered an accident anymore.

While Gao Yang could remain indifferent to the death of others, Asan’s death felt like a lump of cotton was stuck in his throat, making even breathing difficult.

Gao Yang made his way back toward the main battlefield, the beach, looking to find something to do that might relieve the sadness and anger in his heart.

But once he arrived at the beach, he realized he didn’t know what to do.

Maide had charisma; he could gather a Skull Gang out of nowhere.

But Maide’s management skills were nothing to boast about.

After Maide was seriously injured and Abu went missing, the vast Skull Gang couldn’t find a single person to take up the responsibility of command.

There were a lot of things that needed to be dealt with, but Gao Yang just couldn’t bring himself to care about any of it; Asan’s death made him indifferent to everything.

Besides, he was only responsible for training as an instructor, and they had already fulfilled their duties well.

Engaging in combat and commanding troops were not part of their obligations.

Seeing Gao Yang, those who didn’t know what to do next finally found their backbone.

Many people ran up to Gao Yang and asked him what to do next.

This roused Gao Yang’s somewhat deflated spirit reluctantly back into action.

After a long sigh, he began to issue a string of orders.

“Gather up the bodies of the attackers.

See if there are any survivors, and if so, bring them to me.”

“Send a few people to find Abu.

If he’s dead, let me know.

If he’s still alive, have him come to me.”

“Send some people to clean up the battlefield to the east of the village.

If you find any wounded enemies, bring them to me.”

After assigning tasks to the people around him, Gao Yang spoke in a grave tone through the radio, “Everyone, report your current situation.”

“Toad here, there’s no abnormality in the east of the village.

I’m in position with my men, and Little Fly is here as well.

Currently, there’s no sign of the enemy returning.

I’ve sent out scouts, but for safety’s sake, please send at least two heavy machine guns over.”

“Rabbit here, there’s nothing unusual in the north and no suspicious targets observed.

The west side also just reported that everything is normal with no suspicious targets found.”

“This is Big Dog, all is normal here, and I’m ready to fire at any time.

The machine gun crew has started to return gradually, and I can now dispatch three machine gun teams.

I’ve ordered two of them to head east to reinforce Toad’s firepower.”

“I’m Test Tube,” Maide’s bleeding has stopped, and he’s temporarily out of danger, but there are too many casualties now, and I can’t keep up.

Oh God, it’s like a slaughterhouse here!”

Regardless, with none of his closest brothers in trouble, Gao Yang felt considerably relieved.

After a moment of thought, Gao Yang said in a grave voice, “Stay safe, prioritizing your own protection is the number one priority.

Don’t think too much about other things.”

Just then, a black man hurriedly ran up to Gao Yang and blurted out a few words, after which the soldier acting as translator exclaimed, “We’ve found fifty-two bodies of the attackers, and five wounded are still alive.

One of them was knocked out by the blast wave, merely unconscious, and is now awake, and another lightly wounded can be interrogated.

The remaining three severely injured can no longer speak.”

Hearing that there were living attackers, Gao Yang’s spirits lifted and he commanded, “Bring the person over, no, I’ll go with you, have him lead the way.”

On the beach, a crowd was gathered, frantically shouting about something.

Gao Yang pushed through the crowd and saw the attacker who had been captured due to being stunned by the blast wave.

The captured man was sitting on the ground, dressed in black with his helmet off, with camouflage paint on his face so his skin color couldn’t be identified.

However, from his light brown hair and the paleness at his temples, he appeared to be an older Caucasian man.

The prisoner didn’t seem nervous, just confused, with a blank face and eyes lacking any focus, staring straight at a corpse lying next to him.

After taking a glance at the captive, Gao Yang squatted down and asked in a stern voice, “What’s your name?”

Upon hearing Gao Yang’s question, the prisoner shifted his puzzled gaze onto Gao Yang’s face, scrutinizing him several times before responding in a distraught manner.

“Who are you?

How many of you are there?

These n*ggers have your support, don’t they?

These n*ggers shouldn’t be this formidable, this isn’t like how n*ggers fight.

We shouldn’t have failed, I shouldn’t be here.

Tell me, who exactly are you?”

Gao Yang had no intention to conceal his background.

He nodded and said in a deep voice, “I’m a mercenary, to be precise, we are a Mercenary Group, it’s just that the others haven’t arrived yet.

I have answered your questions, and you needn’t tell me your name, but tell me your origin, why you’re here, and exactly how many of you there are.”

After a moment of silence, the captive said with a bitter face, “Like you, I am a mercenary.”

Gao Yang sighed and said, “As an enemy, you are one of the toughest I’ve ever encountered.

That’s not a compliment, but my honest sentiment.

I always have respect for excellent enemies, so please answer my questions.

You know that I have ways to make you talk, so it would be better for you to voluntarily tell me everything you know.

Then I can guarantee you an honorable death.”

In the worldview of Westerners, or rather in the training received by soldiers, there isn’t an expectation to remain unyielding even in the face of death.

Their standard is that if captured, if one is subjected to unbearable torture, to hold onto secrets for as long as possible is considered heroic.

Therefore, the prisoner had no thoughts of enduring torture but instead spilled all he knew.

“A total of sixty-four men, we’ve been completely wiped out, there’s no need for secrecy anymore.

Like you, we are mercenaries.

We were hired to cooperate with some pirates to attack another pirate camp; however, the intelligence we received didn’t mention the presence of mercenaries among the pirates.

The damned intelligence officer also failed to mention these damned pirates had heavy weaponry.

The fighting capability of the n*ggers was many times stronger than anticipated, so we failed.

That’s the situation.

Do you have any other questions?” (To be continued.
