Chapter 95: Start the Operation!
*Beep! Beep! Beep!*
The siren in the building was ringing without stop as the elite soldiers from the Tianhe Squadron prepared themselves for deployment. Some of them were puzzled, but they eventually get themselves together.
A total of 116 armed soldiers were standing in ten rows. Before the men was a military truck with enhanced defensive power, capable of withstanding the explosion from landmines and an RPG launcher.
There are twelve men in a squad. That's how many people each military truck was capable of carrying. Except for four teams with a member less, the other six were at 100% attendance.
Each of them had a balaclava on them with bulletproof headgear, vest, and woven carbon fiber clothing that increases their survival rate. As for the munition, each man is equipped with a Macan-16 series Automatic Rifle, a Heckler-Stoner Production Pistol, and a military-grade dagger.
They're also fitted with a pack of the first-aid kit for emergencies, wounds, and so on. Everyone had a wireless earpiece on them, allowing them to receive a direct order from their squad leader. As for the leader, he had two. One to take orders from Captain Hu, and another to communicate with his team members.
"What kind of operation are we going for? I don't think we get briefed at all." after getting into their ride, the soldiers started to discuss things on their own.
"Ahem. Look at the monitor screen." the squad leader coughed to get his men's attention. The photo of Wang Yufei and Zhang Qin Feng's uncle was shown on the screen.
"This is our rescue target in this operation. You may shoot to kill if you came across assailants with a weapon in hand. This is a full force operation, so assume that the entire building is taken by them."
"There is no other intel regarding their number, but remember the face of these people.
"Alim Roanoke, AKA Dagger."
"Manchester Petersson Smith, AKA Joker."
"Elisha Stone, AKA Lady."
"Donald Mckenzie, AKA Giant."
"These four people are the head of the Horus Eye Mercenaries. Make sure you be careful around them. Let's make this operation a success and rescue our young lady from their hand!" the squad leaders said the same thing as they brief their men on their way.
Their deployment also caught the wind of another faction's attention as the news reached an individual enjoying the companionship of a woman inside a hotel room.
"Boss… The Tianhe Special Squadron is moving. Should we follow them and see what they're trying to do?" the subordinate asked for this individual's opinion after reporting his findings.
"Are you crazy? Following the militarized vehicle could put you into jail. We don't want that to happen, right?" the individual said as he put both hands on the woman busy working on his 'second brother' using her mouth.
With a slight force, he forced the woman to go deeper as he enjoyed the sensation that came while he's using the extent of his brain to think.
"Are there any calls from our seller?" he asked.
"No." the subordinate replied.
"Then… We'll get ourselves out of this problem. Let them handle it themselves. Since the merchandise is yet to come to my hand, I am excluded from the big picture." the individual chuckled. He then looked at the woman that still on his crotch.
"Turn around. Let me give your bum a lesson that you won't forget." the individual slapped the woman's buttock as he ordered her to do what he wants.
…

"Mr. Zhang, we're on our way. Do you have anything you like us to know before we make our move and attack their base of operation?" Captain Hu asked as they're seated inside the car driven by Lightbulb.
"How many people you have in your squadron?" Zhang Qin Feng asked.
"Including these four, there are 120 people. They're divided into ten teams, with ten leaders. I am the captain of this group, but I will join this fight as well." Captain Hu answered.
"Then, please get your people to come in from this way and this way. As for me, I'll take this route and infiltrate their base while their attention was taken by you all. Can you do this for me?" Zhang Qin Feng was fiddling with the tablet computer provided by the captain as he pointed at the few key points he mentioned.
From how confident he is, it seems Zhang Qin Feng already has a few guesses of where the hostages were likely held.
"No problem. This can be arranged. Are you going alone, or you'll get someone to support you?" Captain Hu asked.
"Lightbulb will follow me. I'm sure my partner knew what to do." Zhang Qin Feng chuckled as he chose Lightbulb as his partner in this operation.
"Mr. Zhang, can I ask… How tall is this building this time?" his speech was slightly shaken as he asked. It was evident that he was 'traumatized' by the method of entry in the previous operation.
"Eight floors tall." Zhang Qin Feng replied.
"Eight!" Lightbulb was shocked.
"What's wrong with eight floors? When we're doing para jumping, it was higher than that." another guy laughed as he looks at Lightbulb's expression.
"Laugh all you want. Try jumping that without equipment with you. I'll see how you can laugh after that." Lightbulb pouted as he stares at his fellow mates.
"Alright. We're here." Captain Hu said as his attention turned to a building under renovation. Surprisingly, the Horus Eye Mercenaries are good at looking for a location to hide. Right now, Zhang Qin Feng and the others were the earliest to arrive at this place. This is because they were at the town center when the order was given.
"How long before they arrive?" Zhang Qin Feng asked.
"Eight minutes." Captain Hu answered.
"Alright… Eight more minutes…" Zhang Qin Feng shut his eyes as he calmed himself with the breathing technique he learned from Stein.
"This is still surprising to me… To think that the Horusian Embassy that was shut ended up becoming their hideout. How could this even happen?" Lightbulb said.
