The sky gradually darkened. William had a delicious seafood feast on the balcony that was more than ten square meters wide. After eating, he stood on the balcony in a good mood and watched the night sea view while drinking whiskey.
During dinner, not only did he receive a call from Christmas, but he also received a call saying that the mine had been found. It was in a circular col 12 kilometers north of the village that Solomon had mentioned. Christmas and the others also went closer to observe the specific situation before returning.
Then he received a call from Yuriolov, who had helped William find the people who would accept the mission. There was a group of more than 400 people who were the closest to Colo. Yuri also joked that the price he paid was only 400 AKs and a base amount of ammunition.
Yuri's reason was that he wanted to occupy the diamond mine in that area. After successfully occupying it, Yuri would buy the diamonds mined by them at 10% higher than the normal price. At the same time, he would continuously provide them with weapons.
This made the ambitious people who did not have guns immediately agree to Yuri's conditions. Several large tribes joined forces to help Yuri.
In addition to the 400 people who were currently on the move, the others would arrive at Colo within three days and be on standby.
William didn't care about how much Urey could earn from the price difference. He was only looking for these people to exhaust Jett Frobby's manpower and ammunition. He didn't care about whether these mercenaries would die or not. Since he had picked up a gun, he had to be prepared to either kill or be killed.
Everything was ready. They were just waiting for the guy named Danny Archer to show up. At ten o 'clock the next morning, William, who was sleeping, was awakened by a knock on the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Barney and Antonio standing outside anxiously.
"Boss, the rebels are only 10 kilometers away. We have to retreat."
"Damn it," William could not help but curse when he heard the news. "Have you packed everything?"
"We're packing, boss. We'll leave in half an hour," Barney said.
"Okay, you guys go do your thing. I'll be done soon." After that, William began to wash up and change his clothes. After spending 15 minutes to get everything done, William quickly went downstairs and got into the Mercedes-Benz G55.
When the motorcade was about to leave through the side iron gate, William rolled down the window and looked at Solomon who was standing beside the hotel. He nodded at Solomon. Seeing Solomon nod affirmatively, William smiled with satisfaction and closed the window.
After reconnecting, Solomon could only rely on himself. The convoy followed the instructions of the Black Vanguard UAV and headed north. Five kilometers out of the city, Christmas, Caesar, Gunnar, and Highway stayed behind to observe the situation in Freetown using the UAV.
The Polar Bear Squad didn't know about the equipment of the suicide squad. William didn't want the Polar Bear Squad to know that the Black Edge drone could be controlled by a Devonshire helmet. Every time the Black Edge drone flew, it would avoid the Polar Bear Squad.
Although small UAVs were very advanced in this era, it was not so advanced that no one could make it. At most, it would be slightly bigger than the one William invented. Without seeing the Black Edge drone and knowing its specific parameters and functions, William didn't think that Antonio and the others would have any ideas about him.
After an hour, they arrived at the base. William got out of the car and walked towards the three Hind helicopters. He couldn't wait to fly them into the sky.
The three Hind helicopters were Model D, which was considered very advanced in this era. In terms of combat experience, the Hind helicopter was definitely in the top three. In the 30 years of history, the Hind helicopter had participated in all the battles of the Polar Bear Squad.
William climbed into the cockpit of the Hind helicopter under the shocked gaze of Antonio and the others. After half an hour of explanation from the Polar Bear helicopter pilot, William activated the Hind helicopter.
Barney was so shocked that he shouted for the pilot to enter the weapon cockpit. After everything was ready, William pulled up the helicopter under everyone's nervous gaze.
However, William didn't do anything dangerous. He just flew a few rounds in the air and landed safely on the tarmac. After that, he let the pilot teach him how to use the weapon and switched cockpits with the pilot.
This time, he didn't have to pilot the helicopter himself. William asked the pilot to fly the helicopter to a valley in the mountains. He excitedly fired more than a dozen rockets and machine guns at a mountain in the air. After that, he reluctantly ordered the pilot to return.
After landing on the tarmac, William laughed under everyone's angry gaze. He promised to take everyone out to sea for a big meal after the mission was completed.
Everyone shook their heads helplessly. They wanted to force William to give up the idea of flying the Hind helicopter again, but William didn't respond to them. They knew that William wouldn't listen to them.
However, everyone was still surprised that William was able to land the helicopter steadily on his first try. They were also relieved that William didn't do anything dangerous. At least they knew that William hadn't lost his mind yet.
After lunch, William asked the same pilot from the morning to fly the Hind helicopter again. This time, William flew the Hind helicopter for more than an hour before returning to the base. He then asked the pilot to discuss if there was anything wrong with his flying movements and operation.
After half an hour of discussion, Barney walked into the meeting room quickly. "Boss, the rebels have entered the city."
"Oh, tell Christmas to bring the equipment and solar charger and follow Solomon. Warn him if there's any danger. Don't worry about anything else," William answered casually and continued to discuss with the pilot. He didn't care about the country's affairs at all. The war between the government and the rebels had nothing to do with him.
If it wasn't for the fact that the diamond was in Sierra Leone and he wanted to make the first move to avoid Jett Frobby's revenge, he wouldn't have come to this country where the air was filled with madness.
Barney saw that William didn't care about the news at all. He shook his head helplessly and walked out of the meeting room. He walked to the room where the suicide squad's equipment was stored and picked up the walkie-talkie. He asked Christmas, who was controlling the Black Edge drone five kilometers outside Freetown, "What's the situation in the city?"
"God, this is hell. The two groups don't care about the casualties of ordinary people. They're shooting at will. The rebels are about to reach Solomon's hotel."
Christmas hesitated and said, "Barney, what did the boss say? Shouldn't we do something? This place is too tragic. "
"No, don't forget why we're here. We're just mercenaries. Other than the mission, we don't care about anything else. Let the country solve its own problems," Barney said after he and Christmas were silent for a while.
"Sigh … the boss doesn't care about the city at all. He's discussing with the helicopter pilot how to fly a doe. He wants you to follow Solomon and warn him if there's any danger. Don't worry about anything else and don't cause any trouble. Understand?"
Christmas heard Barney's words and shook his head helplessly. "Okay, it's my fault. We don't have the right to interfere."
"Haha, it's good that you understand. You're a little close to the war zone. Be on alert. Oh right, did you notice anyone approaching Solomon?"
"Don't worry, Gunnar and Highway are on alert. Caesar and I have sent out two Black Edges. I'll keep an eye on our surroundings. Caesar's drone is watching outside the hotel. I'll let you know if there's any news."
