Chapter 1391: Chapter One Thousand Three Hundred Seventy-Three Slow Plan

Polovich agreed to help try, this will take time, and luck is needed. If the luck is good, maybe it can be resolved. If not, there’s no choice but to leave those planes in Ukraine until they can be flown out. If they never can be flown, or are taken back by the Indians, Gao Yang can only chalk it up to bad luck.

Gao Yang was very frustrated, very annoyed, very angry—with himself. Although the two million dollars is not a big deal even if it’s lost, he couldn’t tolerate making such an extremely foolish mistake.

Gao Yang has been learning, starting from how to become a qualified mercenary, learning combat, from being bullied by small-time thugs to becoming the Kick Ram. He learned shooting until he became the Gun God, learned how to lead a team and bring it to the pinnacle, learned to become a commander capable of directing large military operations, learned how to establish a company, and learned how to do business.

Gao Yang has always been learning and improving. To be fair, he is already very, very successful. He is not perfect, has flaws, but in his areas of expertise, he’s close to perfect, and he is working hard to broaden those areas.

As for making some mistakes while expanding into new areas, that’s quite normal. Just that normal is normal, but Gao Yang still can’t handle it because there’s a type of people in this world called perfectionists.

Gao Yang knows everyone in the Satan Mercenary Corps extremely well, and naturally, they know each other just as well. Everyone in the Satan Mercenary Corps also knows what kind of personality their leader has.

Although Gao Yang tried very hard to appear calm, his slightly furrowed brows and tightly pressed lips betrayed his thoughts. Eileen cautiously said, "Boss, you’re still upset about the flight route thing."

"Yes."

Gao Yang didn’t bother to hide it and straightforwardly admitted it.

Eileen is a woman; although she doesn’t seem like a woman, she is still a woman, so some words that others can’t say, she can.

Eileen said apologetically, "This, I’m sorry, Boss. We really didn’t pay attention to business matters, letting you handle everything, putting all the pressure on you. If we all thought a bit more, things wouldn’t have turned out like this."

Gao Yang shook his head and said, "No, I am your leader. All the decisions are made by me, so of course, I have to take responsibility. The fact is, you trust me, think I handle everything perfectly, yet I messed up and made a foolish mistake. What does that have to do with you all?"

Gao Yang has another trait, or a shining point of personal charisma, which is his ability to be strict with himself while lenient with others when dealing with his comrades and brothers.

Glolov sighed and said, "It’s not just your problem; it’s everyone’s problem. Yes, we did get accustomed to letting you handle everything and then overlooked the part of the responsibility we should bear. You are the leader, the decision-maker. If you’re the commander, our role should be as advisors; otherwise, why would the military need a general staff? You’re the Gun God, but you’re not a real god, you can’t consider everything perfectly, so while you have responsibility for this, we also have responsibility."

Li Jinfang looked ashamed and said softly, "Eileen and I were involved in buying the planes, but we didn’t think it through in detail."

The members of Satan trusted Gao Yang completely, leaving everything for him to handle without interference, which proves their absolute trust in Gao Yang. Things always have two sides.

If they continued, it would become a self-criticism session. Gao Yang waved his hand and smiled, "Alright, alright, don’t talk about it. The past is the past. At most, it’s just a loss of two million dollars, let’s move on. Next time, everyone should be more careful. Besides, it’s not completely hopeless; maybe an opportunity will pop up."

After speaking, Gao Yang tapped the map on the table with his hand and said solemnly, "Focus back on Berbera. If we can’t fly the planes over, there’s no need to rush to take Berbera. In that case, the airborne operation plan can be temporarily shelved or even canceled. We can take a more stable approach to gain Berbera."

After saying this, Gao Yang patted his leg, thought for a moment, and said loudly, "If we change our combat method, then resupplying Skull Gang with ammunition and enhancing the siege equipment becomes even more crucial. Our current priority is to purchase a large amount of ammunition and then procure a batch of suitable siege weapons to send to Somalia. The air transport route is temporarily unavailable, so we will go by sea. If air transport is the fast plan, this is the slow plan. It will just take longer, not affect the overall situation."

Glolov said in a deep voice, "Sea transport is slow, but we have more time to prepare thoroughly, recruit more mercenaries, and with us personally participating in the battle, aiming to capture Berbera in one go."

Cui Bo exclaimed excitedly, "Shall we bring a few tanks then? It’s sea transport anyway; bringing a few over is not a problem, right? Somaliland has them, so should we."

Tommy said in a deep voice, "Tanks are secondary; don’t forget we have several hundred sets of anti-tank missiles on their way to Somalia. With anti-tank missiles, the tanks in Berbera pose no threat to us. Therefore, we urgently need to buy launchers for the missiles. As for tanks, we can buy them later."

Gao Yang laughed and said, "That’s right, Tommy has a point. We have many missiles but no launchers, that’s what urgently needs resolving."

Li Jinfang said seriously, "Bring more rocket launchers. The Skull Gang suits direct-fire heavy weaponry, and more grenade launchers, which are better than mortars for the Skull Gang soldiers. You find these things here easily, and they’re convenient to carry, so we can bring more."

Frey frowned and said, "Are we not buying a large batch of ammunition? There’s plenty at Kofupake, lots of it, definitely enough. But Kofupake has now gone to America, and we don’t even know who his replacement is, how do we buy now?"

Gao Yang waved his hand and laughed, "Isn’t that simple? We’ll find a way to contact them, at worst introduce ourselves anew. Besides, the simplest way is to find Rebrov. If Kofupake can sell to us, he can sell even more."

Eileen said, "Boss, didn’t you not trust Rebrov, why are you still looking to buy from him?"

Gao Yang nodded, "Indeed, I’m not that convinced by him, but we can contact him to see what’s up. Besides, even if we don’t buy from him, we can still get the ammunition. As I said, Ukraine doesn’t lack these things, buying from anywhere will be enough for us." (To be continued.
