Mercenary’s War
Chapter 694 - 694 686 Guess

694: Chapter 686: Guess 694: Chapter 686: Guess After a good sleep, Gao Yang, who felt much better, was alone in a room, idly watching television.

It had been one day and one night since they had rescued Grand Ivan.

After receiving emergency treatment and a blood transfusion, Gao Yang was sent to a place in the suburbs of Cape Town to recover.

However, he was alone; Grand Ivan was still in the hospital, and Glolov and the others had been sent away by Uriyangko immediately after securing Grand Ivan’s release.

Except for Gao Yang, everyone else returned to where they had come from and left in batches the same evening.

Even Little Donnie, as soon as he had landed, had immediately gathered all the equipment and boarded a plane to head back.

This was also for security reasons, as after all, the Consulate General of America was no easy target.

After the attack, whether America would retaliate or not, they had to extricate themselves as a top priority.

Grand Ivan sent in the clean-up crew—specialists in erasing all evidence of wrongdoing.

Gao did not know exactly who was responsible for eliminating their traces in South Africa, but he knew that many people were involved in this task.

Grand Ivan’s identity was no secret, and it was impossible to keep it confidential, but the clean-up crew could still erase all traces of their involvement in the embassy attack without a problem.

The work of the clean-up crew was meticulous and complex.

They had to completely remove any evidence of the Satan Mercenary Corps’ presence in South Africa, and to do so it had to start from the source, which, according to them, meant beginning the clean-up operation from Dubai.

The clean-up crew needed to pin the things Gao did after entering the Consulate General on someone else.

Furthermore, this person’s identity needed to be discovered by the CIA and beyond doubt, so that the CIA would never trace it back to the Satan Mercenary Corps.

Simply put, they had to find a scapegoat, and this scapegoat had to be willing to take the fall for everything.

If the Satan Mercenary Corps were targeted, then it would be unlikely for Gao and his team to stay out of it.

But if the CIA’s attention was diverted from the very beginning, focusing solely on Grand Ivan, then naturally, there would be no problem at all.

Gao thought that things might really develop as Grand Ivan had said.

Since the CIA had failed to bring Grand Ivan back to the states or eliminate him, they would not pursue the matter further, at least not until they were confident they could eradicate Grand Ivan and his power too.

Grand Ivan had no ability to stand against America, but he did have the power to hit them hard.

The incident at the Consulate General had hit the news on television.

It went without saying that there would be continuing undercurrents, but in public, America had seemingly already found a scapegoat.

The television that Gao was watching clearly stated that an unidentified group of terrorists had attacked the American Consulate General in Cape Town, South Africa, and had briefly penetrated the building.

However, they were quickly repelled by South African security guards.

There were no casualties or injuries on the American side; whereas two South African soldiers had died, and seven terrorists had been killed.

America expressed that it would thoroughly investigate the incident, South Africa declared they would do the same, and strengthen the security around American diplomatic missions.

Beyond that, nobody would mention a word about the more than twenty elite CIA agents who had been killed, which wouldn’t appear in any official records but would simply add more than twenty unnamed heroes to the CIA’s internal memorial.

As for South Africa managing to outsmart America, that’s a matter which would never be brought up by anyone.

America would surely look for an opportunity to retaliate heavily against South Africa in order to vent their fury, but the world wouldn’t know the root cause, or even that America had struck at South Africa at all.

Gao’s neck wound was so painful that it was becoming quite frustrating.

After watching television for a while and finding it dull, he turned it off.

Gao had planned to take advantage of the free time to go to the training camp in Israel for some intensive practice, but this injury meant he wouldn’t be able to train for ten days to half a month.

Bruce was injured; it would take a month for him to recover.

Rafael and Eileen had sustained minor injuries in Syria, which didn’t affect their movement, so they could freely enjoy themselves in Dubai.

However, being mobile did not mean they could engage in strenuous activity.

Their active combat this time had aggravated what were initially not very serious wounds, which meant they would also be unable to train for the next ten days to half a month.

With four out of ten people down, including two newcomers who needed the most practice, there was no point in training.

Joint training couldn’t be conducted in the short term, so the Satan Mercenary Corps was thoroughly on a long break.

Those who wanted to stay and enjoy themselves in Dubai could continue to do so, staying in presidential suites every day was not a problem since Grand Ivan was footing the bill.

Only Gao Yang was somewhat troubled.

His injury was not serious, but it was not minor either.

Staying in South Africa for observation for two days before going elsewhere to recuperate would have been fine, but these two days of observation were hard to endure.

As Gao Yang was pondering where to go for a stroll once he could move, he heard someone knocking on the door.

Then the door opened, and he saw Uriyangko coming to his bedside with a stack of documents.

Grand Ivan had saved him, but there were certainly many matters to deal with.

Gao Yang hadn’t seen Ivan or Uriyangko for a whole day and two nights, and now, seeing Uriyangko again, he noticed Uriyangko’s face was beaming with joy.

Upon seeing Gao Yang, Uriyangko put the documents he was carrying onto the head of Gao’s bed, and then gave Gao Yang a big hug.

Uriyangko’s enthusiasm was a bit excessive.

After pushing Uriyangko away, Gao Yang frowned and said, “I’m not used to hugging men so tightly.

Tell me, what’s the good news?”

Uriyangko loosened his tie and sat down beside Gao’s bed before sighing, “These two days have been exhausting for me, but everything has finally returned to normal.

Grand Ivan is fine; his heart has some problems, but it’s within a safe range.

Also, Gao, I must thank you.

I really must thank you properly.”

Gao Yang smiled and said, “Nonsense, you’re going to have to bleed a lot this time.

What?

You’ve got your hands on Asia that quickly?”

Uriyangko laughed and said, “That quickly?

It’s not that simple.

From personnel to channels, then to the market, I think even half a year would not be enough for me to take over.”

Gao Yang laughed and said, “You’ll be a big shot in the future too, Africa, the whole of Asia, these are the best places in the world to sell military equipment.”

Uriyangko spoke earnestly, “Without you, there would be no me today; I’m speaking the truth.

I was able to get all this because you brought Grand Ivan out alive.

Also, before, I could only earn some commissions selling arms, but now, I’m partners with Grand Ivan.

Do you know what that means?”

Gao Yang curiously asked, “What does it mean?”

Uriyangko exclaimed, “I don’t need to invest any capital, but for all the military equipment I sell, I get to take half of the profit, half!”

Gao Yang responded in amazement, “That impressive?

Grand Ivan is really generous!”

Uriyangko nodded and said, “Grand Ivan is ruthless to his enemies and good to his own people.

Otherwise, how could he have attained his status today?”

After speaking, Uriyangko looked around the empty room and, with a conspiratorial air, leaned in and whispered in Gao Yang’s ear, “Grand Ivan is generous to me and he won’t be stingy with you.

Guess what kind of grand gesture he plans to use to thank you, take a guess.” (To be continued.
