Mercenary’s War
Chapter 740 - 740 732 Capture the King First to Catch the Thieves

740: Chapter 732: Capture the King First to Catch the Thieves 740: Chapter 732: Capture the King First to Catch the Thieves Gao Yang’s plan was to head straight to Little Gamar’s house, capture him, and then have Gamar himself hand over the two killers, employing the strategy of capturing the leader to catch the thieves.

In truth, Gao Yang didn’t have much confidence in the success of the operation, mainly because he was too unfamiliar with the situation in Pointe Noire.

He didn’t even know whether Little Gamar was at home, let alone be certain they could capture Little Gamar alive.

Apart from that factor, everything else wasn’t a problem.

A local gang overlord in Pointe Noire might possess all the necessary ruthlessness and means, but when facing the world’s strongest mercenaries, these professional killing machines, how much combat power could a small-time overlord demonstrate?

Gao certainly didn’t lose any sleep over it; to him, this seemed no more challenging than a picnic.

The most important, and the only real difficulty, lay in capturing Little Gamar alive, and that was it.

After Gao briefly explained the operation plan, Li Pengfei nodded and said, “We’re good at field combat, not so familiar with indoor operations.

But it’s just some gangsters, so no big deal.

I’ll pick an assault rifle then, and pack a few more grenades.”

Once they understood what the operation entailed, choosing equipment was quite straightforward.

Li Pengfei and his two companions were quickly geared up, all dressed without exception in assault trooper gear.

After preparing, Li Pengfei said to Gao, “I’d like to discuss something with you.

Toad will definitely be the first to storm in, can the three of us follow right behind him?”

Li Pengfei’s idea would disrupt Gao and his team’s usual combat formation, requiring adjustments to the coordination between the point man and the assault team.

Therefore, Li Pengfei needed to consult with Gao to prevent messing up their formation and any details like fire support.

In warfare, there is no such thing as a trivial matter, and details are crucial.

However, Gao and his men were truly elite, capable of handling emergencies and changing combat formations without affecting their combat effectiveness.

Moreover, Li Pengfei’s request was sensible, so of course Gao wouldn’t refuse.

Since new members joined, Gao glanced at his watch and announced in a serious tone, “Sync time now, it’s twelve twenty-nine.

Adjust to twelve thirty for the operation, everyone do a final check on your gear, we move out in two minutes.”

When everyone had reconfirmed their equipment and reported readiness to Gao, he waved his hand and commanded loudly, “Move out, Tyrannosaurus on navigation.”

Everyone simultaneously pulled down the visors on their helmets, revealing only their eyes and mouth.

Eileen was holding a navigator, not a GPS, just a regular navigator, which was sufficient for navigating Pointe Noire considering their lack of familiarity with the city’s layout.

Gao and his men got into their vehicles, but a problem became apparent—they only had two vehicles, and they were too small.

With the addition of Li Pengfei and his two companions, the cars couldn’t fit so many people.

Finding a car on short notice was an option, or they could use a simpler method.

Since Little Gamar lived by the sea, using the speedboat Little Donnie had used to deliver the gear could also transport the men.

After splitting some to take the boat, Gao got into a vehicle and the group headed straight for Little Gamar’s house.

They stopped the car not far from the sprawling mansion occupying a large piece of land, and Gao looked at the dimly lit building, remarking, “It’s enormous!

Is this a private villa or the Presidential Palace?

This is just extravagant.”

Pointing at the navigator’s screen, Eileen whistled and said, “Looking at the building’s shape marked on the navigator, and judging by the length of the walls we can see, the floor area must be at least five thousand square meters, and with the courtyard, at least twenty thousand square meters.

Wow, this gang boss really likes to show off.”

How big is twenty thousand square meters?

A standard football field used for World Cup matches is seven thousand square meters, meaning Little Gamar’s home was roughly equivalent to the size of three football fields.

With such a large area comes numerous personnel; naturally, there would be many to watch over and guard the place.

Gao mentally raised the operation’s risk level a notch and then spoke into the radio, “Team One is in position, Team Two, report your status.”

“Reporting, Team Two is about to land, able to take position in five minutes.”

After a moment of thought, Gao said sternly, “The target’s building is too large, which is detrimental to our operation.

Approach the target building silently, and then storm in at the fastest speed to search for the target inside.”

Having briefed everyone on the action plan, those who came by boat also arrived quickly.

Now, Gao and his team quietly got out of the cars parked by the street.

Little Gamar’s house was indeed too big, making it seem like they could enter from anywhere.

The surrounding walls were made of brick but weren’t too high, just two meters, while there were three iron gates leading to different streets, with one more gateway opening towards the beach.

After a quick reconnaissance, looking through the gates into the interior, they could see several figures moving back and forth in a yard filled with a variety of plants, and nothing else significant was noted.

Once the group gathered, Gao quickly ordered, “Toad and the other three will be one team; Little Fly, Tyrannosaurus, Bat, me, and Fork, the five of us will form another team.

Big Dog and Worker Bee will provide cover; we’ll force entry, quickly move inside the building, and try to capture a couple of ‘tongues’ to find out where Little Gamar is—move out.”

Rafael called out urgently, “Boss, how do we enter, do we break through the wall or breach the main gate?”

Gao Yang waved his hand, pointing at Little Gamar’s mansion and said, “Straight ahead, if there’s a wall then break it, if there’s a door then break it down, now, go!”

Two assault teams were at the front, clearing the firing zone for Glolov and Tommy, forming an inverted triangle attack formation; Gao and his men quickly charged toward Little Gamar’s mansion.

The place was too large, with too many guards moving around, so getting quietly close to the perimeter wall was enough.

The rest would be an outright assault.

Rafael, leading the charge, stuck a block of C4 underneath the wall and then, pulling the detonator, turned and ran back.

After a few seconds, with a loud blast, a large gap appeared in the brick wall.

Li Jinfang was the first to jump through the blown gap, followed by the two assault teams entering Little Gamar’s yard from both sides of the breach.

With night vision devices, it was clear at a glance whether there were people up ahead.

After advancing several tens of meters, Gao and his men spotted the guards rushing over.

Li Jinfang and Li Pengfei, among others, got down on one knee and each fired half a magazine of bullets, taking down a dozen or so men who were tens of meters away.

Dragging an injured leg, Li Jinfang still ran very fast.

After striking down the first wave of enemies, he immediately leaped forward and sprinted ahead.

Since Gao couldn’t use the shotgun, he relinquished his position as the first assaulter in his group and, wielding a pistol, lagged at the rear of the five people.

“Clear the external enemies, quickly enter the building to prevent the target from escaping!”

After Gao gave the order, they sped down a convenient path on the lawn, charging straight for the nearest large gateway.

Little Gamar’s house was big but not very tall, only one story, which could save them a lot of time in the search.

But the simplest method would still be to quickly capture someone and interrogate them for precise information.

When they were about thirty meters away from a large door on the side of the house, guards who were alerted by the commotion came rushing over, shouting and firing wildly.

At that moment, Glolov hit the deck and, positioning his machine gun, opened fire on those guards outside the building.

While Glolov cleared out the enemies on the right with his machine gun, Gao and his men took down all four people running from the left at over a hundred meters away.

Once they confirmed there were no more people outside, Glolov stayed out to suppress any potential enemies from the sides, while Gao and the rest had already reached both sides of the main gate.

After trying the door handle and finding the gate was locked from the inside, Rafael stepped forward and attached a piece of C4 at the lock position.

Following a small explosion, Li Jinfang kicked the door open, then two shock grenades and four explosive fragmentation grenades flew into the room.

Waiting for the blast to subside, Li Jinfang was the first to rush through the gateway, and as soon as he entered, he aimed his gun and shot two men lying on the ground behind the door.

Although urgently needing to capture someone who could talk, those blasted at close range by shock grenades and fragmentation grenades were likely deaf or dead, and there was no time to wait for their hearing to recover to question them.

Gao realized they had entered through a side door, and found themselves in a fairly large room filled with exercise equipment and a pool table, likely a relaxation area.

There was only one door leading to other areas, and it was open.

Gao gestured, and his men quickly dispersed and surged towards the open door.

Li Jinfang stayed behind the door, and after a quick peek outside, he signaled, and everyone immediately followed him in a rush.

After exiting that door, what appeared before Gao and his men was a vast space with an almost three hundred square meter indoor swimming pool.

Around the pool were lounge chairs and a bar counter, and notably, a wide array of doors.

Gao was dumbfounded, unable to believe that a villa walking distance of over two hundred meters to the beach would also have an indoor swimming pool.

He really didn’t understand the lifestyle of an African tycoon, and more troublesome was the fact that there were at least ten doors of various sizes.

After only a brief glance, Gao immediately pointed to the largest door and said, “That door!”

Just as Gao’s words fell, a door suddenly opened less than ten meters from him.

As two men burst out, one after the other, Gao fired his pistol in rapid succession, with all the bullets hitting the legs of the two men.

After taking down the two men and seeing they were unarmed, Gao urgently called out, “Where is Little Gamar?” (To be continued.
