Mercenary’s War
Chapter 83 - 83 82 New Discovery

83: Chapter 82 New Discovery 83: Chapter 82 New Discovery How important is a good sniper?

This question is difficult to answer, but without a doubt, a good sniper has the ability to change the tide of battle, and there are too many battle examples that have proven this point.

Therefore, any troop will provide all conveniences for their best snipers.

Now Gao Yang was receiving the treatment of a top sniper.

After seeing Green Mamba again, Green Mamba didn’t thank Gao Yang for promptly taking care of the M2 heavy machine gun, but stared at Gao Yang and said in a deep voice, “You’re a master, we’re lucky to have your help.”

Gao Yang knew he couldn’t be modest with these foreigners, so he just smiled and said, “You’re too kind.

We’re now in the same trench.

Whatever we do, it’s only right.”

Green Mamba nodded and said, “You can have first pick of the spoils of war.

These people had some very nice things.

Anything you want is yours, and also, you can choose your shooting position first.”

When Gao Yang heard Green Mamba’s words, his heart stirred, and he hurriedly said, “Do the building’s defenders have any shotguns?

I’m short of a shotgun and have been wanting to find one.”

Green Mamba shook his head and said, “I’m sorry, but we don’t have what you want.

However, you can still see if there’s anything else you need.”

When Coleman stormed the building, they lost one man and one was wounded, but they killed eight people.

The bodies of these defenders were left in place, but the lootable items had already been piled together.

Of course, some valuable things such as watches, rings, and cash had been taken by Coleman company’s men, but all the weapons and equipment were still there.

Gao Yang followed Green Mamba to the spoils of war, where a dozen guns were piled together.

There was a variety of guns; it wasn’t just AKs as Gao Yang had expected.

In addition to the four or five AKs, there were actually three French FAMAS assault rifles and two Austrian-made AUGs, while the light machine guns were one American 7.62mm M60 general-purpose machine gun and a 5.56mm M249.

Besides AKs, at least three different countries produced the guns Gao Yang saw, while both American machine guns were NATO standard issue.

Gao Yang frowned, looking at the guns and feeling that something was amiss.

Although he knew Western countries led by the United States supported the opposition, he didn’t expect to see so many weapons in Misrata that shouldn’t have been in Libya.

As Gao Yang pondered with furrowed brows, Cui Bo excitedly said, “Brother Yang, should I take the FAMAS or the AUG?

Damn, I’m in luck, these guns are all good.

I want them both, what should I do?”

Gao Yang ignored the excited Cui Bo and exchanged a glance with Glolov; he noticed that Glolov’s expression was also grim.

Gao Yang shook his head and said to Green Mamba in a solemn voice, “It seems our adversaries are not just locals, huh?

Did you find anything in the building?”

Green Mamba nodded and replied, “We found a European.

His belongings indicate he’s from Italy.

I don’t know if he’s a mercenary, but now we can be sure that NATO’s involvement is deeper than we thought.

Their weapons say it all.”

Gao Yang also nodded and said, “Right, I’ve noticed that too.

And I feel that these people are more capable than the opposition I know of.

It seems like they’ve improved quite a bit.”

Without speaking, Glolov bent down, picked up an AK47, removed the magazine to look, and with a sullen face said, “It’s Czech-made, both the gun and the bullets.

Looks like I don’t have to worry about finding decent ammo, but it seems we’re going to be fighting against some tough opponents now.”

Green Mamba laughed bitterly and said, “It’s easy to talk with someone who understands.

Although we knew there were mercenaries among the opposition and that NATO secretly sent many people over, I thought they were few and we would only need to exchange fire with the opposition fools.

But now it seems I oversimplified things.

Guys, I’m planning to negotiate with Hamis about a pay raise.

If they don’t agree to raise the payment, we’ll withdraw from the fight immediately.

If they agree, then we’ll hold out a bit longer.

What about you?

Are you interested in joining us to demand a raise?”

Gao Yang looked at Glolov; such matters required Glolov’s input, and it was clear that Glolov agreed with Green Mamba’s proposal.

Glolov nodded to Gao Yang and said, “As mercenaries, we need to recognize the situation.

Our enemies are stronger than we thought, so asking for a raise is only natural.

If Gaddafi doesn’t agree to a raise, then we’ll switch sides to the opposition.”

Green Mamba laughed heartily, “That’s right, we need to be alive to spend the money we earn.

When our enemies change, our price must go up.”

Gao Yang was still somewhat uncomfortable with the mercenary perspective but after thinking about it, he realized that they were fighting for money anyway.

What loyalty did they owe Gaddafi?

As long as they didn’t betray him in the midst of battle, maintaining professional ethics was already enough.

Seeing Glolov and Green Mamba had no hesitation about switching sides, Gao Yang also nodded and said, “Alright, let’s negotiate together.

But are Hamis’s men going to agree to us just pulling out of the fight like this?”

Green Mamba smiled and said, “Of course.

We are paid by the day, which means our mercenary relationship lasts one day.

We understand this, and so do they.

If they dare to force us to fight for Gaddafi, buddy, I certainly don’t mind fighting for the opposition for free.

We are just mercenaries, not the National Defense Forces.

Why tie ourselves to a sinking ship?

Alright, I’ll go talk to the Sandstorm commander.

It would be best if all three mercenary groups could demand a pay rise together.

You guys can pick whatever you want now; I’ll be right back.”

After Green Mamba hurried off to find the Sandstorm people, Gao Yang sighed and said to Glolov, “Did I talk too much?

Exposing that most of us are newcomers.”

Glolov spread his hands and said, “Being a new mercenary has nothing to do with combat capability.

There’s nothing to worry about.

Also, Green Mamba is right.

We cannot tie ourselves to a doomed ship.

It looks like America is determined to take out Gaddafi.

We need to make as much money as possible now and then leave as soon as things look bad.”

As Gao Yang and Glolov kept talking, Cui Bo couldn’t stand it any longer.

Holding an AUG in one hand and a FAMAS assault rifle in the other, he said in a low voice, “Brother Yang, which one should I take?

I really can’t decide between them.

Should I take one of each?

The ammo is compatible anyway.”

Gao Yang replied impatiently, “Cut it out.

Still one of each?

Aren’t you afraid of getting tired?”

“Not afraid, just a bit cumbersome.

I don’t even notice the weight.”

“Forget it, as if I didn’t say anything.

Well, just go with the AUG, it has better reviews than the FAMAS.”
