Mercenary’s War
Chapter 798 - 798 Seven Hundred Eighty-Nine Two Foxes

798: Chapter Seven Hundred Eighty-Nine Two Foxes 798: Chapter Seven Hundred Eighty-Nine Two Foxes This time, Gao Yang was not boasting or talking big; he was stating the facts.

Sadiq could dominate this corner because no one paid attention to him, but as far as Gao Yang was concerned, if he really angered him, he could kill Sadiq in a minute, just like squashing a bug.

Of course, Gao Yang was indeed plotting against Sadiq right now, but he was acting alone.

The Satan Mercenary Corps was training in Israel, and Andy He was also participating in the training.

During this essential period of team bonding, Gao Yang was reluctant to call everyone over for his personal affairs, delaying their training.

Training in combat situations as a substitute for regular training was feasible, but not as effective as targeted training aimed at weaknesses.

Unfortunately, if he had brought the entire Satan Mercenary Corps from the beginning, it would not have been a problem, but mobilizing them after training had already begun would be much more troublesome.

Moreover, Sadiq’s men initially did not evoke a sense of danger in Gao Yang, so he decided to go it alone.

Had Gao Yang come with the entire Mercenary Group, there would not have been so much trouble, and Captain Sadiq would have been dealt with already.

If Gao Yang had a night vision device, he would not be in the trouble he was in now.

The two essential electronic devices Gao Yang always carried when he went out were a satellite phone and a GPS.

There is no need to explain the satellite phone since Gao Yang, who travels all over the world, cannot use a regular mobile phone.

Thus, the expensive but globally accessible satellite phone became the inevitable choice.

Gao Yang had been using the same phone Morgan gave him in Libya; he hadn’t changed it, nor had he paid for the service.

As for GPS, Gao Yang didn’t need it to find his way everywhere, but having GPS was undoubtedly convenient.

Moreover, in the wilderness, mentioning a place name could be troublesome, but with GPS, giving coordinates was much simpler.

Gao Yang decided that from now on, no matter where he went, he would always bring a night vision device.

Even if he went places where an infrared gun sight was not allowed, he could bring a Glow Night Vision Device.

So, from now on, he would always carry three items of electronic equipment with him, even on vacation.

Gao Yang stated the facts to Sadiq and then began pondering the night vision device issue.

As for the immediate threat, apart from fearing that Captain Sadiq might actually leave and block the cave entrance, he was not afraid of anything else.

After all, from the very beginning, Gao Yang had never taken Sadiq seriously, and up to now, he still didn’t.

Gao Yang was preoccupied with his thoughts and had put Sadiq out of his mind.

After waiting for a while, when Sadiq spoke again, Gao Yang remembered that he was still in a war of words with him.

“You seem very confident.

Do you really think you can leave this cave?” sneered Sadiq.

“All I have to do is seal the entrance and come back in a few days to collect your body.

Actually, I should thank you.

Perhaps this cave is the main mine I’ve been searching for.”

Gao Yang laughed softly, “Captain, have your men told you that I didn’t come here alone?

If they have, then you should know that my two companions have already left.

I’m curious how long you think you can trap me here.

Alright, even if you kill me, so what?

You think that’s going to change your fate?”

Without waiting for Sadiq to reply, Gao Yang continued, “What baffles me is where your confidence comes from.

To me, you’re just a bug that I can crush at will.

You have no idea what I do or the power I represent.

I am someone you simply cannot afford to provoke, but you’ve done just that.

So, Captain, if you’re not foolishly committed, you should be considering how to flee for your life.”

Gao Yang spoke evenly; he was stating facts, he had self-assurance, and therefore did not need to add any emphasis in his tone.

The confidence exuded by Gao Yang somewhat overwhelmed Captain Sadiq; he did not demoralize Gao Yang but got completely shaken, or rather, scared, by him.

Ignorance is fearlessness.

It is not only the brave who fear nothing, neither is it only those with confidence who have no fears.

Sadiq’s tone developed some subtleties; while he still sounded arrogant, his former arrogance stemmed from ignorance, but the arrogance he now displayed was forced.

“You’re confident, defiant.

Perhaps everything you say is true, but that’s all the more reason for me to make sure you die.”

Gao Yang laughed heartily, “That’s right, your hatred for me must be so deep by now that mere words can’t dispel it.

Killing me quickly would be the greatest consolation before your own death.

So come on, don’t dilly-dally.

Come and kill me.

The question is, do you dare?

If you come over with a gun in hand, you still count as a man.

Don’t just send your men to their deaths while you hide.”

Gao Yang was not afraid of Sadiq’s men charging him, nor was he afraid of Sadiq coming in person.

His main concern was Sadiq sealing the cave because whether the other two caves offered an escape was doubtful.

Without enough bodies, he might not even be able to climb up to the higher cave entrance.

So, he kept provoking Sadiq, hoping he would send more men to their deaths.

After waiting a while, Sadiq’s side remained silent, and Gao Yang began to feel frustrated; he feared Sadiq had indeed been scared off and was taking his men to seal the cave.

“Captain, why so quiet?

Can’t find anyone willing to die?”

“Asshole!

Shut up.

What grudge do I have against you?

Don’t give me that ‘superhero’ crap.

Stop trying to fool people with that nauseating hypocrisy!

Ah, I get it, you want my mine!

You just want to steal the mine along with my workers, right?”

After pondering for a while, Gao Yang helplessly said, “Your conclusion seems to be the most reasonable explanation.

If I say it isn’t, you definitely wouldn’t believe me, so think whatever you want, if you say that’s the case then it must be.”

Sadiq fiercely said, “Exactly, you damned thief, thinking of stealing what’s mine?

Don’t even dream about it.

I don’t care who you are if you want to take my diamond mine, you’ll have to step over my dead body!”

Gao Yang laughed out loud, “Of course I’d step over your dead body, isn’t that obvious?

Buddy, your IQ really drops when diamonds are mentioned.”

Sadiq roared, “You can’t do it!

Let me tell you, I have money, lots of it, and with money, I can get anyone to do my bidding.

You want to steal my diamonds?

Fine, I’ll tell you, I have tons of money to protect what’s mine.

You think you’re so great?

I can have an endless number of people guard my diamond mine, mercenaries, assassins, anyone at all, but you’ll pay a price if you try to take my stuff!”

Gao Yang said with a grin, “No problem, once I’ve taken your mine, I’ll be the rich one, and it’ll be me paying mercenaries, assassins, and the like.”

Sadiq was nearly driven mad with rage, he bellowed, “Except you’ll die before that happens!”

“Here we go again about killing me.

If you want me dead, come and try.”

Gao Yang realized he was quite good at arguing.

He was sharp when speaking with a gun, and apparently, he was sharp when using his mouth too.

Sadiq couldn’t contain himself any longer; after cursing a few times, immediately three or four men rushed out from the cave.

This time they weren’t wielding rocket launchers, instead they started firing as soon as they appeared, a continuous barrage of bullets.

After checking the enemy’s position on the camera, Gao Yang also started firing, and his shooting was much more accurate than the enemy’s.

Although the camera couldn’t display the trajectory of the bullets when fired at high speed to adjust his aim, his barrage managed to take down two of the four men.

The cave was formed entirely by volcanic rock, the walls were relatively smooth, it was like firing inside a tube.

In such an environment, ricochets were very likely.

Even if Gao Yang didn’t hit directly, it was no problem for the bullets to bounce off the walls or ground a few times at a very small angle.

Although the power of a ricochet was reduced, it was still lethal.

Watching the remaining two retreat back into the cave, Gao Yang shouted, “Hey Captain, are you dead yet?”

Sadiq was nearly driven insane by Gao Yang’s taunting, roaring, “I’m going to starve you, you bastard!”

Gao Yang said in a bored tone, “Fine, let’s see who lasts longer then.

By the way, Captain, I have a question for you.

You have several Tuareg men under you who are very skilled with guns, why don’t you send them out?

Those Tuareg shooters are really good, letting them attack would be smart.”

After Gao Yang finished speaking, Sadiq didn’t reply, but a person with a very heavy accent slowly said, “You’re very skilled, I’m not going to court death.”

“Are you that Old Fox?

Oh, I mean, which Tuareg elder are you?

Are you the one with the old rifle?”

“It’s me.”

“Ha, I honestly didn’t expect you to speak English, don’t you guys usually reject learning foreign languages?”

“I’ve fought many wars, been a mercenary for many years, picked it up by listening.”

Not expecting the Old Fox to speak English, let alone to engage in conversation, Gao Yang chuckled upon confirming he was talking to the Old Fox, “Hey, old man, you’re really skilled, truly skilled.

Honestly, you’re the first person I’ve tried and failed to kill multiple times, I’m starting to admire you, really, this is absolutely a compliment to you.”

After a brief silence, the Old Fox slowly said, “You’re very cunning, like a fox in the desert.

Many times I thought I had you for sure, but in the end, not only did you get away, but you also killed my men.

I’ve never seen anyone as formidable as you, I have great respect for you.”

Gao Yang laughed heartily, “You’re saying I’m like a fox?

Well, the nickname I gave you is actually Old Fox.

So, can you tell me why you’re not trying to kill me right now?”

The Old Fox slowly said, “Many people say I’m like a fox, and indeed, many people call me Desert Fox.

But I think you’re more like a Desert Fox.

As for why I’m not attacking, it’s because I’m not really good at using the thing called a night vision device.

If I use that, I would shoot inaccurately, so I plan to just stay here and guard, trapping you in here until you die.

If one intends to hunt a fox, trapping it inside a den so it can’t leave is the easiest method.” (To be continued.
