Chapter 344: Chapter 328 Royal Navy

Feng Biao did not answer Gao Yi because the question did not need an answer.

If the Lego Mercenary Group’s members fled, it would be over, everyone would be doomed.

Under such circumstances, if Gao Yi were a bit clever, there might still be a chance to escape.

Right now, the War Axe Mercenaries could retreat, but they could not; they had to stay and defend to the death, so it wasn’t that they wanted to earn this money, but that they had to.

However, it was hard to say whether the Lego Mercenary Group could see this point.

The deadliest part was the electronic interference, which had cut off all communications. Although the factory was not too far from the office building, only about three to four hundred meters, and the farthest less than five hundred meters, under the current conditions, this distance might as well be a chasm.

Wait, electronic interference!

Gao Yi suddenly thought of this and immediately gained more confidence; then he shouted to Feng Biao, who was turning to find a position to defend, "Wait!"

Feng Biao stopped, and Donkey also looked over.

Donkey, not going to his fighting position with his subordinates, likely wanted to stay close to Gao Yi, in case the situation became unrecoverable and he might have to either take Gao Yi hostage or simply kill him and surrender to the enemies.

Gao Yi excitedly said, "We will have reinforcements! We will definitely have reinforcements! We cannot be betrayed because of the electronic interference. If we were betrayed, there would be no need to cut off our communication!"

Feng Biao certainly knew more about fighting, but when it came to these cunning tricks, Gao Yi’s mind worked a bit faster.

Some things couldn’t be said explicitly in front of Donkey, but Feng Biao understood.

Yes, if the problem lay with Grasse, then the electronic interference would be unnecessary because an alliance between Grasse and Freedom Wind meant the Pentagon and CIA were collaborating. If it were really the Pentagon’s doing, no one could save Gao Yi no matter who he called.

Even, if the Pentagon made a move, they could obliterate them with a single strike.

Just replace the helicopters with fighter bombers; not too big, a thousand-pound guided bomb would suffice. Three laser-guided bombs would even raze this building to the ground.

There was no need for armed helicopters launching anti-tank missiles.

Therefore, having electronic interference wasn’t scary; even if Gao Yi could not contact the outside world or Grasse, Grasse would definitely know what had happened here.

Feng Biao also saw hope, blurting out eagerly, "That’s right! There’s no need for electronic interference; in that case, the enemy’s attack won’t last, they must end the fight quickly."

Donkey immediately asked, "What do you mean?"

Gao Yi didn’t know to what extent the Pentagon could act because even if the Pentagon wasn’t colluding with Freedom Wind, it was ultimately unlikely that they would deploy heavy troops, as that would be too obvious.

But it was good news as long as they weren’t betrayed by Grasse, as long as the Pentagon wasn’t involved.

Gao Yi couldn’t explain too much to Donkey, and this was when Feng Biao stepping forward was most fitting.

Feng Biao said urgently to Donkey, "Our friends won’t let us be attacked without intervening, no matter who the enemy is, or why they can launch an air raid. But this air raid definitely won’t last long, half an hour, at most an hour. The enemy’s planes must withdraw. If we can hold on for an hour, just one hour!"

Donkey was skeptical. After pondering for a moment, he said, "It doesn’t really matter how long it takes, but did you say we will have reinforcements?"

Feng Biao said definitively, "Yes, we definitely will! Buddy, you’ve certainly figured it out by now, we are definitely not just anybody... we clearly have strong backers..."

Donkey smirked and said, "You are just cannon fodder pushed to the forefront."

Feng Biao immediately retorted, "Even that is cannon fodder with a background! Buddy, no matter what, hold on until the end, there will definitely be a surprise if you don’t die. Don’t rush to turn against us, don’t think about killing us to surrender to the enemy, it’s not possible. You’re already involved, you have no chance to get away. Only by fighting alongside us can we..."

Feng Biao never managed to finish a complete sentence.

Every time Feng Biao would start, an explosion would interrupt him.

With two booming explosions, Donkey’s face betrayed his anguish and concern, because each explosion meant he likely had subordinates killed in action.

Without walkie-talkies, real-time communication was impossible, so there was no way to know immediately what had happened.

Fortunately, the explosions were not continuous. Feng Biao quickly said, "No matter what! Hold on with us until the end, only then there’s hope! We will join the fight! We must cooperate!"

Donkey took a deep breath. He pointed at Gao Yi, barely concealing his anger, but ultimately he just said, "I don’t want explanations, but if you shortchange me even one dollar, I will take your life!"

Mercenaries want explanations, but of course, mercenaries should only demand money.

At that moment, a dusty soldier came scrambling over, yelling at Donkey.

Gao Yi, unable to endure it any longer, said, "Speak English! Save your explanations..."

Donkey replied in Russian, and after his subordinate turned to walk away, he then said to Gao Yi, "The transport helicopters have landed, on our eastern side. The enemy is using the office building to block the fire support from the Lego Mercenary Group. It seems the enemy knows our firepower deployment well."

Feng Biao hastily said, "No need to have prior knowledge, any commander with a bit of common sense wouldn’t expose himself to crossfire."

It was still jargon, but Feng Biao tried to convince Donkey the enemy didn’t have too much advance information.

Donkey sighed and said, "The enemy landed six transport helicopters. My men didn’t even have a chance to fire before being hit directly by missiles. Now... I have lost two brothers!"

With a hostile tone, Donkey barely concealed his intent to kill Gao Yi.

Gao Yi didn’t know what to say.

Which link in the chain had failed?

Where exactly had these armed helicopters come from!

Looking at Gao Yi silently, Donkey continued, "Now, you join the battle! You come with me to the front, if you don’t join, I refuse to fire. I won’t do it for you..."

Donkey couldn’t finish his sentence.

Another soldier ran over quickly, shouting loudly in Russian.

Without walkie-talkies, communication had to rely on shouting.

This time, Donkey’s expression was greatly astonished; he seemed unable to believe his ears. Gao Yi couldn’t help but say, "What exactly did he say!"

Donkey, stupefied, looked toward Gao Yi and said dumbfoundedly, "The enemy’s helicopters are densely landing on our east side, but they are Sea King HC4 assault transport helicopters! British Royal Navy livery, six of them!"

Jargon, still jargon, but this time Gao Yi understood one word, he exclaimed, "British Royal Navy?"

British Royal Navy helicopters appearing in Iraq, in the suburbs of Baghdad City?

This joke has gone too far.

Feng Biao reacted even more strongly than Gao Yi, asserting without hesitation, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! The British don’t have forces stationed in Iraq, how could their helicopters appear here? Did your man see it wrong?"

Without waiting for Donkey to respond, Feng Biao spoke urgently, "I’m going to check!"

What Sea King transport helicopter, I’ve never heard of it.

Speak of Black Hawk, Gao Yi knows; speak of something like the CH-47 Chinook, Gao Yi has heard of it, but this Sea King, he truly has never heard of it.

As for recognizing, even if you parked a helicopter in front of Gao Yi he wouldn’t recognize it.

But seeing Feng Biao sprinting away, Gao Yi immediately followed.

Just wanting to see for himself.

Lucy and Lin Xianghua also ran over.

Donkey, extremely helpless from behind, said, "Idiots! Come back! Isn’t one enough? Are you all gathering together to court death? Falke, come back!"

Donkey wasn’t concerned about Gao Yi’s safety, but if Gao Yi and the others got wiped out by a missile, there would be no one to pay him.

And since the enemy made an airborne operation on the east side of the building, their armed helicopters would surely pay special attention to this direction; popping your head up was enough to get blasted, let alone a group of people appearing together.

Reluctantly, Donkey could only follow; he needed to drag Gao Yi back.

Feng Biao ran in the lead.

On the east side of the building, it couldn’t be seen from the hallway; one needed to first go into a room on the south or north side, and look out from a window, an action fraught with danger, pausing even slightly was like waiting to be shot.

Feng Biao rushed into one room, pausing for no more than two seconds before retreating.

As Feng Biao rushed Gao Yi backward, he had just opened his mouth when a deluge of clattering erupted behind them.

It was a machine cannon, fitted in the helicopter, that had discovered Feng Biao and decisively opened fire, not using missiles, and reacting incredibly fast; however, Feng Biao’s reaction was faster still, he retreated immediately after a glance, causing the enemy’s machine cannon to shoot emptily.

Had Feng Biao paused even a second or two longer, those volley of bullets would have torn him apart.

A burst of fire, shooting about a dozen or so rounds, stopped.

As the explosions behind them ceased, Feng Biao, baffled, spoke urgently, "Damn, it really is British military livery!"

Gao Yi asked urgently, "Is it the Sea King helicopter?"

"I don’t recognize any Sea King helicopter, but I recognize the British Royal Navy’s emblematic livery, and also, those helicopters, I truly don’t recognize!"

Feng Biao was now confused, his speech began to falter.

But his not recognizing those helicopters was correct. Not recognizing them meant they really were some sort of Sea King helicopters.

It wasn’t a problem with Grins, nor was it the US Army joining the fight; it was the British Royal Navy joining the fight.

Now, the problem came.

Gao Yi, extremely astonished, said, "What are the British doing getting involved?"

Feng Biao said, "Given what you did in London, is it strange that the British are joining the fight?"

Donkey grabbed Gao Yi, his face full of anger, "You stay put! Bastard! And why would the British Royal Navy be here?"

Why the British were here Feng Biao had already mentioned; the strange thing was why there was a British Royal Navy transport helicopter here.

Feng Biao, looking utterly lost, said, "How far is the range of a Sea King transport? Can it fly here from the UK? What’s going on, how far is the UK from here?"

Donkey angrily said, "Idiot, Royal Navy! Navy! Falke! Amphibious assault ships!"

Having said that, Donkey grabbed Gao Yi’s collar, then continued, perplexed, "Explain to me, why would the British Royal Navy join the fight! Why! Why..."

Gao Yi didn’t like having his collar grabbed, so he reached out, grabbed Donkey’s wrist, and with a gentle twist, forced Donkey to rotate as well.

Donkey tried to break free from Gao Yi’s grip, but he was extremely horrified to find he couldn’t escape.

Gao Yi, annoyed, said, "Stop fussing, the British... Falke, I don’t know!"
