Mercenary’s War
Chapter 1162 - 1162 One Thousand One Hundred Forty-Five Cooperation Opportunity

1162: Chapter One Thousand One Hundred Forty-Five: Cooperation Opportunity 1162: Chapter One Thousand One Hundred Forty-Five: Cooperation Opportunity Dani went to find Gilanor to arrange a helicopter to the downtown area, while Gao Yang returned to his own office.

Gao Yang took out his phone, he had many calls to make, but after thinking about it, he made the first call to Morgan.

The fastest way out was still Morgan’s private jet pickup, but given there were no direct flights from Lebanon to America, not to mention the massive amount of equipment that needed to be sent to America, which typically wouldn’t matter even if it took half a day or a full day longer, but now Gao Yang just wanted to return to America as quickly as possible, not willing to waste a single minute.

Borrowing Morgan’s plane, Gao Yang felt completely justified, as he sat down behind his desk and dialed Morgan’s number.

It took a little longer to answer the phone, which wasn’t surprising because it was midnight on Morgan’s end.

Once Morgan answered the call, he sleepily said, “Hey, Gao, how’s it going in prison?”

Without any guilt for disturbing someone’s sweet dreams, Gao Yang cheerfully responded, “Hi, Morgan, I’m out of prison, I’m now in Damascus.”

Morgan’s voice immediately perked up as he said, “Oh, you’re out?

When are you coming back?”

Morgan had good reason to be eager; over a month ago, Gao Yang had called him to mention a nice gun he acquired, and then went silent, leaving Morgan anxiously waiting for Gao Yang to get out of Aleppo Prison.

Now that Gao Yang was out, it meant he could finally return to America and that the shotgun would soon be in Morgan’s hands.

Gao Yang laughed heartily and said loudly, “Buddy, I want to return to America right away, the sooner the better.”

Morgan joyfully replied, “I get it, I get it, I’ll come pick you up right away.

Where to?”

Gao Yang said with a grin, “Beirut.

The Syrian Military Intelligence Directorate’s plane will bring us to Beirut, then how soon you can see me depends on when the plane can reach America.”

An overjoyed Morgan immediately shouted, “Hold on a second!”

Gao Yang waited through the sounds of getting up, followed by the noise of a door opening, and then heard the cheerful shout, “Nelson!

Nelson!

Get up, no more sleeping in, quickly arrange the plane.

I want to complete the preparations for take-off before dawn, hurry!”

Being Morgan’s assistant was not easy, being woken up at three or four in the morning could hardly be considered sleeping in.

Gao Yang knew that if Morgan was at home, his assistant wouldn’t be there, but if Morgan was living elsewhere for work, then the assistant would definitely be nearby, ready to respond 24 hours a day.

After waiting for Morgan to excitedly finish shouting, a calm voice quickly said, “Sir, do you need to change your plans?”

“Yes, yes, go arrange it, get to Beirut as fast as possible to pick Gao up, go ahead and arrange it.”

Morgan had kept the phone on, and Gao Yang could hear clearly what he was saying; once Morgan had finished instructing his assistant, he soon said with great joy, “Gao, just wait, the plane will be in Beirut very soon.”

Gao Yang responded with a smile, “Okay, wait for me.

Nothing else, just borrowing your plane.

Oh, one more thing, bring me five pistols when you come, 1911, Colt Commander model.

That’s all, we’ll talk about the rest when we meet.”

“Alright, we’ll talk when we meet.

I’m waiting for you, hey buddy, don’t delay any longer, come back soon, have a safe trip.”

After hanging up, Gao Yang hesitated a moment then decided not to call Yelena.

It would be better to surprise her in New York than to notify her beforehand.

After deciding not to call Yelena, Gao Yang thought it over and decided to deal with the matters at hand first.

“Hasan, come in.”

Gao Yang called out to his orderly, and soon, Hasan pushed the door open and came into the room, saluted Gao Yang, and said loudly, “General.”

Gao Yang nodded and ordered, “Go and call the Mi-24 pilots to see me.”

“Yes, General.”

As Hasan saluted and was about to leave, Gao Yang suddenly called out loudly again, “Hasan, wait.”

Hasan turned again and stood at attention, “General, is there anything else?”

Gao Yang nodded and spread his hands towards Hasan, “Hasan, you should know, we’re about to leave, most likely tomorrow.”

Hasan looked somewhat forlorn as he opened his mouth, and then he said, “So soon?

General, I wish you all the best.”

Gao Yang smiled and replied, “Yes, it does feel rather quick.

Hasan, you’ve done very well in your work these past days, I am very satisfied, thank you.”

Hasan immediately saluted and said excitedly, “It is my honor to serve you, General!”

Nodding his head, Gao Yang opened a drawer, took out a handgun and grabbed some magazines, then he stood up, walked to Hasan’s side, and spoke solemnly, “This was seized from a Rebel Army commander.

I’m giving it to you as a keepsake.”

The gun was indeed a fine one, a Beretta M92, and quite new at that, although it wasn’t personally seized by Gao Yang, but was instead found on captives by Satan’s men during operations in Damascus.

When people like Ludwig and Li Qiu were leaving, they took with them any seized guns they fancied, and Gao Yang had also kept two.

When it was time for him to leave, he could also give them away as mementos.

After hesitating for a bit, Hasan took the handgun Gao Yang handed over, then said with excitement, “Thank you, thank you, General.”

After placing the other magazines in Hasan’s pockets, Gao Yang waved his hand and said, “Don’t mention it, keep it as a memento.

Rest assured, keep it.

There’s no need to hand it in, I will make it clear to your superiors that it’s a personal gift from me.”

After speaking, Gao Yang patted Hasan on the shoulder and said with a smile, “Do your job well, you may go now.”

Hasan saluted once more and then turned to leave.

Gao Yang sat back at his desk and after not too long, someone knocked on the door, and he called out loudly, “Come in.”

Hasan pushed the door open, and then four Russians walked in.

Gao Yang stood up, walked in front of the four men, and extended his hand, smiling at the pilots who had brought them back, “Gentlemen, thank you for bringing us back.”

Although it was their helicopter he rode back in, after disembarking the aircraft, they went straight to eat, so it was Gao Yang’s first time seeing these men.

All four pilots looked to be in their forties.

As Gao Yang shook hands with each of them, a pilot said with a smile, “No need for thanks, sir.

It is actually us who should thank you for offering us a good job.

This flight was much easier than I expected, and I hope you won’t deduct from our fee because of that.”

After the Rebel Army suffered a devastating defeat, the evacuation mission for Gao Yang’s team became much easier, but whether it was easy or difficult, the agreed price would certainly not change.

Gao Yang laughed heartily and spoke up, “Gentlemen, the only question is whether you want to be paid in cash or if you would prefer a bank transfer or have you already agreed on a payment method with the person who hired you?

If you wish for another method of payment, please let me know.”

One pilot shrugged and said, “Cash, we do not trust banks, and we also can’t accept transfers.”

Polovich only helped in finding the people, while the pilots’ fees were to be paid by Gao Yang’s team themselves.

Gao Yang was not short on cash.

Many people wanted to be paid in cash, so when hiring mercenaries to come to Syria to help in the fighting, Gao Yang had already prepared a lot of cash.

Whether it’s paying salaries or bonuses, those who wanted cash received cash, and those who could accept transfers got transfers.

Knowing the pilots’ requirements, Gao Yang stretched out his hand to invite the four men to sit, then said with a smile, “Please wait a moment.”

Gao Yang returned to the bedroom, opened the cash box, and the money he had brought was almost all spent, leaving probably three to four hundred thousand.

He counted out twenty bundles and took them back to the office, placing the money on his desk.

He took out five bundles and delivered them personally to one of the pilots, expressing his thanks before going back to get more, one by one until each pilot’s fee was settled.

Although the difficulty had been reduced, they had done him a huge favor, and Gao Yang was always grateful to those who had helped him immensely.

Gao Yang and the pilots refrained from exchanging names, as neither party was in a position to casually reveal their identities to others.

Since it was likely to be their only meeting, instead of using false names, it was more straightforward not to say anything at all, just to settle the payment and everyone to go their separate ways.

After distributing the money to the four pilots, Gao Yang smiled and gestured with his hand, saying, “You can count it to make sure the amount is correct.”

A pilot laughed and said, “No need, we trust Mr.

Polovich.

Otherwise, we wouldn’t have come all this way here.

And since Mr.

Polovich has praised you highly, we trust you.

Once again, thank you as opportunities to easily earn a lot of money are not that frequent.”

Gao Yang smiled and said, “Gentlemen, it seems that we have all enjoyed a pleasant cooperation.

This is very good.”

One pilot laughed and said, “Indeed, it was a pleasant collaboration.

Sir, we hope to have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future.”

Upon hearing the pilot’s words, however, Gao Yang simply smiled and said, “Speaking of opportunities for collaboration, there actually might be one.

The thing is, I am quite satisfied with your flying skills; you all are absolutely top-notch.

It is very possible that in the not-so-distant future, I might start a company—ah, I could really use pilots as excellent as you.

If, when my company is established, you also happen to be interested, perhaps you could come work for my company.

The remuneration is negotiable, and I am more than willing to offer the most generous salary for the best talents.”

Hearing Gao Yang’s words, a pilot immediately expressed his interest, “Sir, may I ask what kind of company it is, and how much salary are you offering?” (To be continued.
