Chapter 506 - 506 502 Our Logistics Officer

506: Chapter 502 Our Logistics Officer 506: Chapter 502 Our Logistics Officer Drones?

That’s no big deal.

It would be weird if there weren’t any.

As long as no one is attacking, there’s no need to worry.

Everyone at the table continues eating and drinking, totally unfazed.

Cui Bo sat across from Gao Yang with a smug look on his face and arrogantly said, “I told you, you guys might not like my cooking, but foreigners will definitely love it.

How about it, are you convinced now?”

Gao Yang flipped him the bird and said, “You just got lucky this time, but it doesn’t change my immense disdain for you.

As a member of the salty party, I can’t stand a sweet party member showing off in front of me.

So disappear from my sight right now, or I’ll have Toad throw you out.”

With a smirk and a couple of cold laughs, Cui Bo flipped Gao Yang the bird to express his utter disdain, then swaggered off to sit somewhere else.

Li Jinfang’s expression darkened as he grumbled, “This kid gets cocky when things go his way.

We’ll take him down later.

Let’s just let him have his moment today.”

Just then, the phone rang.

Gao Yang put down his spoon, picked up the phone, and found that it was Uriyangko calling.

He gestured for Li Jinfang to stay quiet, then answered the call and said, “You finally called.

Where are you now?”

“Bogota.

Just got off the plane not long ago.

How are things on your end?

You seem to be in a good mood.”

Gao Yang laughed and said, “Things are pretty good.

Everyone’s fine; had a good sleep and just had a full meal, so spirits are high.

Don’t even ask about Ivan.

I can tell you that under current conditions, he’s doing unbelievably well.

The likelihood he’ll live is greater than the chance he’ll die.”

Uriyangko whistled and said, “That’s not bad news.

I hope what I’m about to say doesn’t ruin your mood because it’s not good news.”

Gao Yang sighed and said, “Just say it.

Whatever the news is, it doesn’t matter.

I’ve already been hit so hard I’ve become numb to it.”

Uriyangko’s voice became much more serious as he said gravely, “Grand Ivan used all his connections, but there’s no immediate way to get you guys out.

The key issue is, there’s no way to extract you from the jungle.”

“Expected that.

Go into more detail.”

“Well, I was planning to meet up with you, but now I think it might be better for me to stay in Bogota.

Make a list of everything you need and tell me.

I’ll make sure it all gets to you.”

“Really?

That’s great.

Give me a division, well, a brigade will do too.

I’m not even asking for armored ones, just send me an infantry brigade as cannon fodder, and I’ll be grateful.”

“Buddy, be serious.”

Gao Yang lazily said, “Don’t make offers you can’t fulfill, okay?

Alright, for real now.

I need reinforcements, as many as you can spare.

Don’t send any cannon fodder; you know what kind of people I need.

Also, I need those anti-aircraft missiles Grand Ivan promised me sooner than later.

Drones are flying over our heads, and it’s probably only a matter of time before they start dropping bombs.

Additionally, I need nutrition and medical supplies for the severely wounded.

There’s also some specific food for them, which I’ll tell you about later.

Another thing, when are you going to pay the mercenaries?

I’m afraid if the Angel Mercenary Corps doesn’t see their money soon, they’ll turn hostile and force the issue with guns.”

“Got it.

I’ll make sure everything you asked for arrives today.

As for manpower, I’ll keep two helpers with me, and send the rest to you.

About the payment, Grand Ivan gave me a large sum to manage freely.

Buddy, I’ve never seen so much money in my life.

Give me an account number, and I’ll transfer it right away.

How much?”

“Hold on.”

Gao Yang put down the phone and called out loudly to Nate, “Come here, let’s talk about your payment.”

Nate sat down in front of Gao Yang, ran his fingers through his hair, and smiled, “You’re ready to make the payment?

Alright, the 20 million USD contract is fulfilled, plus four million for the anti-aircraft missiles.

Also, how much for the follow-up mission?

Let me think…

50 million sounds good.

Oh, and I told you if we managed the breakout without injuries, I’d cut the follow-up fee in half for you.

So that makes it 25 million.

In total, that’s 49 million USD.

Thank you.”

Gao Yang banged on the table and said loudly, “Buddy, I’m all for extortion, but could you please show some restraint?

How about 30 million?

Don’t forget that the follow-up action involves both our guys and the employer’s, and besides, the employer still has to figure out how to rescue us.

30 million is already a good deal.”

Nate shrugged and said, “Okay, you make a good point.

30 million USD.

Put it in this account, Swiss Bank.”

Gao Yang was taken aback by how easily Nate had agreed; he had expected more resistance but it was settled in just a few words.

Gao Yang placed the slip of paper that Nate had thrown at him on the table in front of him, picked up the phone again, and said gruffly, “The commission is three million dollars.

If you agree, I’ll give you the account number.”

Uriyangko immediately said, “Of course I agree.

Give me the account number.”

After reading the account number to Uriyangko twice to be sure he’d gotten it down, Gao Yang promptly got the coordinates of their location from Nate and gave those to Uriyangko as well.

After Uriyangko finished noting down what was needed, Gao Yang thought for a moment and realized there was nothing else he needed.

He then said, “I’ll have the doctor call you in a bit to tell you what other medicines are required.

For now, please proceed with the transfer.”

“Move quickly, soon as I’m ready, I can complete the transfer.”

After hanging up the phone, Gao Yang turned to Li Jinfang beside him, “Go ask Andy He and Test Tube if they need anything.

They can write it down or come talk to Uriyangko in person.”

After hurrying Li Jinfang away, Gao Yang looked at Nate and said, “You’ll be receiving the money soon.

Now, think if there’s anything you need.”

After pondering for a moment Nate replied in a serious tone, “We currently have enough food to last five days, but we don’t have any combat rations.

Have your friend send us some combat rations, compressed biscuits, self-heating food, energy drinks, a lot of chocolate.

We should prepare for guerrilla warfare.”

Gao Yang nodded, but immediately said, “You just mentioned that we have enough supplies for five days consumption.

Considering all this is leftovers from the drug dealers, and they had more than two hundred people, does that mean the drug dealers only had a three-day food supply?”

Nate laughed and said, “You’re quite observant.

Yes, the drug traffickers only have a three-day food reserve, so someone will most likely bring food to them soon.

I think it’s likely that they will send food to the camp and take away the Caffeine soon.”

Gao Yang shook his head, “It doesn’t matter anymore.

Honestly, I have no expectation of staying hidden for more than forty-eight hours.

To be frank, I’m already quite content that we have been able to eat breakfast in peace without being attacked so far.”

Nate shrugged and said, “Your expectations are really not high.”

Gao Yang sighed, “It’s really depressing how things have developed to this point, huh?

To watch helplessly as the situation escalates with no way to stop it, it’s quite helpless.”

Nate smiled and said, “It seems the root of all this was your plan to save your friends, right?

See, I told you before, sooner or later you’re going to get killed because of your friends.”

Gao Yang disdainfully replied, “But when I’m in trouble, I also get help from friends.

How about you?

Can you say the same?”

Nate tossed his head and laughed, “I don’t need it.”

Gao Yang waved it off, “Fine, don’t be too confident.

As I have said before, if one day you guys are surrounded and about to die, if I’m in a good mood, I’ll come save you, and for free.”

Nate didn’t reply, but the smile at the corner of his mouth showed he was expressing disdain for Gao Yang through his silence.

Just then, the phone rang again.

After Gao Yang picked it up, he simply responded with an “Okay, I know,” and then hung up again.

“Your money has been transferred; it’s an instant transaction, you can check it now.”

Nate shook his head, “No need, my people will get the notification soon.”

“A question, is a three million dollar deal considered a big deal for you guys?”

Nate nodded and said, “Yes, it’s a big deal.

As far as I know, a single mission worth three million dollars has broken the recent record for small mercenary group commissions.

You know, big deals are hard to come by, not always available.

Many times, we can only take small contracts worth two or three million dollars.

And finding a job where you can be extorted at the brink of crisis, like yours, is even rarer.”

Gao Yang smiled bitterly, “You’re pretty straightforward.

Wouldn’t it kill you to be a bit more tactful?”

Nate smiled, “No need to beat around the bush.

Extortion is extortion; no matter how nicely you put it, it’s still extortion.

Anyway, I’m very grateful for the lucrative job you offered.

If you get surrounded again, feel free to call the Angel Mercenary Corps.

We are at your service, just be ready for extortion.”

Gao Yang was left without a response.

Nate chuckled and then said, “If there’s nothing else, I’d like to discuss my plan.

Given our situation, I suggest our groups operate separately.

You lead your men and those Russians to set up a temporary camp, while I defend this main camp.

If you have no objections, let’s start moving now.”

Gao Yang nodded and said, “Alright, but I plan to wait until the supplies arrive before leaving.

Hold on for a moment; let me call and ask when we can expect delivery.”

Nate looked at his watch and frowned, “I’m worried we might not have enough time.”

Gao Yang smiled, “I’m aware that we might be short on time, but let’s ask anyway.

Our reinforcements act quickly, and I’m quite confident in letting him handle logistics.” (To be continued.
