Seeing that the bearded man had suddenly turned hostile, Zhao Yu did not panic at all. He stared at the bearded man and asked, "What? Do you want to die with us?
If anything happens to us, this place will be razed to the ground! "
"No, no, no … Hehehe …" After listening to Zhao Yu's translation, the bearded man laughed sinisterly. "I said, we need to have a good talk!"
As soon as the bearded man finished speaking, his soldiers brought a few people over.
Zhao Yu saw that they were all the missing exploration team members. Including Chu Peng and the two women, nine of the twelve exploration team members had gathered.
"Hehehe …" The bearded man laughed. "You see, I am very sincere in releasing the hostages!" As he spoke, he pointed at the crowd, then pointed at the oil pit in the distance. "We spent so much effort just to ask for money!
Now, since you want us to release the hostages, of course, you have to pay a small price! " The bearded man's eyes were filled with greed. "So, it's not too much for us to ask for a small reward, right?"
Oh … So, you want money …
"Humph!" Zhao Yu snorted coldly and taunted him. "You learned it from the Somali pirates, right? You want to take advantage of the situation? "
"Haha …" Big Beardy smiled. "I'm doing this for the sake of my soldiers! Money is the only thing that can keep us afloat in the war-torn Vagria.
"Besides, we are not like the Somali pirates," the bearded man said. "Don't worry, I will definitely give you a reasonable price that will satisfy both of us!
"Let's do the money and the goods. What do you think?"
After saying this, the bearded man waited patiently for Zhao Yu's response. He knew that as soon as Zhao Yu asked for a price, it meant that his plan was about to succeed.
However, what was Zhao Yu's background?
As soon as the bearded man opened his mouth, he already knew what was going on.
Logically speaking, money was just a worldly possession. If he could really use money to solve this crisis, it would be a good idea. However, Zhao Yu could not agree to such an unfair deal!
This was because he had no drones or troops behind him. Everything he was doing now was just a bluff!
If he were to discuss a deal with the other party, he would definitely delay the time. Once he delayed the time, he might be exposed!
Therefore, if he wanted to quickly resolve the crisis, he had to end the battle as soon as possible. He could not afford to argue with the other party.
Besides, Zhao Yu couldn't stand the feeling of helplessness. A foreign force kidnapped our hostages and asked us to pay a ransom. This is too much!
It's already good enough that I didn't ask you for compensation. How dare you ask me for money? How preposterous!
"Haha, this small amount of money is nothing to you, but it means a lot to us!" The bearded man was still trying to persuade Zhao Yu. "How about it? As long as you are willing to pay, we will definitely release them! Otherwise …
"Without the refinery technician, we won't be able to survive. We can only perish together!"
"Okay!" Zhao Yu didn't wait for the translator to speak. He nodded and said, "Let's die together then!"
As he spoke, he turned on the walkie-talkie and shouted at Captain Pu Jiayou, "Commander Pu, the negotiations have broken down. Drop the bomb!"
"Gulp …" Zhao Yu could hear Pu Jiayou's tongue sticking out from the walkie-talkie.
Wow …
When Zhao Yu said this, there was an uproar at the scene. Many of the soldiers' faces changed.
"Don't … Don't let him use the walkie-talkie!" At this time, an officer next to him shouted at the bearded man, "Quick, grab it!"
"Grab it, my ass!" Zhao Yu held the walkie-talkie and shouted fiercely. "If the army loses contact with me, I will drop the missile immediately. You are all dead!
"Commander Pu," Zhao Yu shouted into the walkie-talkie again. "Let the drone blow up the shed on the west side. Let them see if I am joking with them!"
"This … But …" In the walkie-talkie, Pu Jiayou was flustered.
"It's okay. Don't worry about my safety. Drop the bomb!" Zhao Yu shouted. "I am the commander. Do you hear me? I want you to drop the bomb!"
"Don't! Don't, don't, don't … "The translator was the first to understand what Zhao Yu meant, so he quickly stopped him. He then translated Zhao Yu's words to the bearded man, who was so anxious that his saliva was flying everywhere.
"Ah?!" After the bearded man heard this, he was so scared that his face turned pale. There were oil pits under the west side of the shed. If they were blown up, it would be equivalent to cutting off their lifeline. He quickly waved at the translator and shouted, "Wait, wait, wait … Let's talk this out!"
"What else is there to talk about?" Zhao Yu shouted angrily. "I have already given you a chance, but you didn't accept it! So, why should I be polite to you? "
Then, he took a deep breath and put the walkie-talkie next to his ear. He was about to shout again.
This time, the bearded man and the soldiers were really scared. Although they had the advantage in numbers, they were completely overwhelmed by Zhao Yu's imposing manner.
"Okay … Okay, okay … I … I …"
The bearded man stretched out his trembling arm. He was about to compromise, but at such a critical moment, there was suddenly an unexpected change!
With a sharp sound coming from the mountain in the south, there was a sudden explosion on the southern wall of the village!
Boom!
With a huge fireball rising, the wooden wall was blown up and a huge gap was opened. The patrolling soldiers on the wall were instantly blown away, and the flames were flying everywhere.
Even though they were in the shed far away, Zhao Yu and the others still felt the billowing waves of the explosion. In an instant, the earth shook and the shed shook. It was chaos!
Oh oh …
Zhao Yu swallowed his saliva, gritted his teeth, and said into the walkie-talkie, "Captain Pu, isn't this a bit too much? I'm talking about the shed on the west side! You guys blew up … Hey? "
In an instant, Zhao Yu realized that the situation was not right. He knew that the people of the Secret Service were all in the east side. It was impossible to blow up the south side of the village!
This …
"What … What's going on?" Pu Jiayou's confused voice immediately came through the walkie-talkie. "What the hell happened? It wasn't me … "
Seeing that the village had been attacked, the soldiers present once again aimed their guns at Zhao Yu.
"You …" The bearded man was trembling with anger. He only thought that the explosion was caused by Zhao Yu. He pointed at Zhao Yu angrily and shouted, "You guys … Do you really want to die?"
"Um … This … This …" This time, it was finally Zhao Yu's turn to be confused. He didn't know where the explosion had come from.
Chi …
However, in the blink of an eye, while everyone was still in a daze, there was another sharp sound coming from the mountain in the south.
They saw a shell fall from the mountain and hit a house at the south gate of the village.
Boom!
The house was blown to pieces, and the soldiers near the house were all buried under the debris …
Whoa …
Seeing the wave of air coming towards him, Zhao Yu quickly covered his face.
The wave of air blew the shed to the side and shook it. Several soldiers who had not been able to stand still were all swept to the ground …
