Chapter 777: Must Take the Initiative
The planes took off one after another, first three An-12s, and then two Mi-8s also completed refueling and took off.
Gaoguang left two Mi-8 helicopters, which were needed for emergencies.
As soon as they land in Djibouti, these aircraft will completely belong to Gaoguang. At that time, they will be repainted and re-registered. From military aircraft to civilian aircraft, Gaoguang will have a private fleet of his own.
Who will be in charge of this fleet in the future? Which lieutenant colonel is willing to recommend himself, but if Gao Guang's head is not damaged, he will not be used.
Gao Guang didn't want to let Tirenzhen keep these planes. He used Tirenzhen's pilots and then used Tirenzhen people to manage them. Wasn't he preparing to return the planes to others in the future? It looks like we have to recruit people again.
But the bulk were two C-130s still in the hangar.
The threat of the Egyptian Army may prevent these two C-130s from falling into Gao Guang's pocket.
At dawn, a plane appeared on the airport radar. Through radio contact, it was discovered that the plane coming was the C-130 flying from Djibouti. The crew members carrying the two planes were carrying the spare parts needed to repair the planes. Before the enemy launched an attack, the people who came to repair the planes arrived first.
Naturally, we should give him a warm welcome.
When the plane taxied to the end and stopped directly in front of the hangar, someone came down from the tail cabin of the plane with a forklift carrying accessories.
They came from a team of technicians who had to repair emergency battle damage. They were also maintenance technicians, but with the word emergency added, it was more than just talk.
There was no greeting or politeness. The officer who came down with the forklift jumped in front of Gao Guang, and then he said without hesitation: "Two aircraft are being repaired at the same time. According to the existing information, one will take four hours to repair. During this period, At the same time, I need to complete the inspection and basic maintenance work. The other one is very troublesome and needs to be disassembled to replace parts. It will take me at least twelve hours. Is there a safe time?"
Gao Guang immediately said: "No problem, enough time."
"Okay, call me Dale, you are Mr. Mad Dog, right?"
He was a neat person, a little rude in his neatness. While greeting Gao Guang, Dell turned around, held the walkie-talkie hanging on his chest with his hand and said: "Everyone gets off the plane and starts working. Quick, quick!" , Dale turned around, shook hands with Gao Guang, and then while shaking hands he said: "Give me the maintenance log, take my people in and start working, lights, I need lights!"
Two more small special vehicles came down from the plane. They were lighting vehicles used to provide lights during emergency maintenance on the simple runway in the wild. There is even a dedicated lighting truck.
He always started to say something else before finishing a sentence. The handshake with Gao Guang was instant, and Dell turned around and looked at
Everyone filed out of the tail cabin of the plane said: "Move quickly, don't waste time!" After saying that, Dell looked at Gao Guang again and said naturally: "We have extra money this time, right?"
Is this acuteness or mania?
Gao Guang nodded and said, "Uh, yes, there is extra money."
"I hope the extra money will be given to us at the end of the work. No problem, that's what the commander said." "Well, if there is any problem with the cash, you can transfer it."
Dell frowned a little, and Gao Guang said quickly: "Don't ask for cash, cash is troublesome. You should trust our professionalism, just as you are good at repairing aircraft, and I am professional at handling funds. I trust your commander. It's the first time we meet, and we are completely strangers. Gao Guang didn't expect the other party to trust him, just let Dell trust his boss.
Dale spread his hands, then pointed to a hangar and said, "Let's start working, quick, quick!"
The two groups of people had divided up their work before they arrived. Dale and a group of people trotted into a hangar. The lighting truck turned on the lights, and the entire hangar suddenly became bright. Riccardo said in surprise: "This guy is really anxious."
Gao Guang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You watch them working. I called to ask for money. If the money hasn't arrived yet, it will be difficult for us." The army was pressing outside, and the repair work was in full swing inside, but both sides were worried. You have to give money, but if you don’t have money, something might happen.
After a night of running around, another night of fierce fighting
, but Gao Guang didn't feel sleepy at all, nor did he feel very tired, but others were different. For example, although Francisco had a good physique, he only felt tired and sleepy now.
"Boss, aren't there a lot of skirmishers around us? Why haven't we seen them? The enemies haven't attacked yet. What are they waiting for?" Francisco yawned, and then he continued: " I'm tired of waiting. When do you think the enemy will attack?"
"They don't have the ability to fight at night. I think they will launch the attack after dawn. There is still a while. Find a place to rest. I don't need protection here. You don't have to follow me all the time. Francesco can He didn't have a wheelchair, and he was still wearing heavy armor and walking around following the highlights. This physical exertion was not on the same level at all.
Francisco was not polite when he heard Gao Guang's words. He directly found a corner with leeward wind, sat on the ground and leaned against the wall before falling asleep. Gao Guang took out his satellite phone and dialed Jilawotu.
"Hello, we have completed all operations, the pilot flew the plane to Djibouti, but
Yes, now I have a request. Yes, I have a request. "Giravotu said: "Please tell me."
"Can you advance a payment of 100 million US dollars for the goods? No matter what you need, any weapons will do. Whatever you need, I will send it to you right away, and I guarantee that it will be delivered to you. A penny is too much for a hero, let alone 100 million US dollars. The capital chain is broken, and the urgent payment must be paid immediately. This is not possible without asking others to do things.
Jilawotu said: "We don't need any weapons now, because the situation changes too fast and we can't be sure." "It doesn't matter. Anyway, you advance the money to me, and I will fly it directly if you need it."
Gao Guang was mentally prepared for the lion to open his mouth in the Tiren formation, but according to common sense, the Tiren formation would be able to use him more in the future, so the Tiren formation shouldn't be too much.
Jilawotu said calmly: "We can prepay the goods, and we will give you 200 million US dollars, and we will not ask you to lower the price. We will still buy your weapons according to the market price, but we have a requirement, that is, what we need in the future No matter what the situation is, you have to deliver it!"
When the Tiren Formation is surrounded and their lives are hanging by a thread, they have to be rescued. When the Tiren Formation is blocked in the airspace, they must be sacrificed even if they forcefully break through. If you collect US$200 million, you will have to bear the cost of a crisis from time to time, and the cost may far exceed US$200 million.
But Gao Guang really doesn't have a choice now. On the other hand, if you think about things on the bright side, maybe everything goes well with the Tiren formation, and there won't be any particularly dangerous situation at all in the end.
Gao Guang hesitated for a moment, and finally said seriously: "I agree to your conditions and get the advance payment. When you need it, no matter what the goods are, I will deliver them to your designated location on time according to your requirements! "
"Okay, I'll arrange the transfer right now."
The previous credibility now comes into effect.
The Tiren Formation believed in Gao Guang's ability and his promise, so they were willing to give him US$200 million.
Gao Guang believes in the sincerity and strength of the Tiren Formation, and also believes that the Tiren Formation is indeed an organization that does big things, and is not a trashy faction that is just trying to be a fool. If both parties are willing to cooperate and there is indeed a basis for cooperation, then everything will become much simpler.
Riccardo held up a tablet to signal to Gao Guang. Gao Guang hung up the phone, looked at Riccardo and said, "What?" "The drone detected a new situation."
Gao Guang hung up the phone, and Riccardo came to his side and whispered: "The situation is not good. There is an artillery unit approaching us. The distance is less than 20 kilometers. At this speed, they will arrive at dawn." hour, ten meters away from us
An artillery position was deployed at a kilometer position. "
Gao Guang frowned and said: "Artillery and armored forces, they don't have the ability to fight at night, but they can launch attacks after dawn. This is for us." Riccardo whispered: "This news only We know, boss, that the armored troops can fight, but if the artillery fires on us, it will be troublesome."
Gao Guang looked at his watch. It was at most an hour before dawn.
Take a closer look at the reconnaissance picture sent on the tablet
Gao Guang suddenly said: "Huh? Is this our cannon?"
Riccardo looked at it carefully, and then he whispered: "The tractor looks familiar, it should be our cannon." The picture taken at night is not very clear, but it can be roughly seen.
Gao Guang started to touch his chin, which he would do when he was nervous. Riccardo whispered: "Boss, either leave now, or you have to take the initiative." Evacuate, evacuating now can guarantee absolute safety, but Djibouti's The maintenance personnel have arrived and are waiting for the aircraft to be repaired. Who can be willing to evacuate at this time?
It is impossible to withdraw, we must take the initiative.
If he did something wrong today, it was Gao Guang's eagerness to settle for safety, which caused him to lose half of his ability to take the initiative. On the bright side, half of the carrying capacity is left.
Gao Guang sighed and said, "If we take the initiative before the artillery positions are deployed, we might be able to get those cannons back."
Riccardo whispered: "There are at least twenty cannons and many self-propelled artillery, but how to transport them back is a problem. If they can be transported back... can they be sold again?" Highlight He said faintly: "Tirenzhen gave me a gift, and I also return a favor to them. Friendship needs to be maintained, you can't keep asking for it."
After finishing speaking, Gao Guang said in a low voice: "Two planes cannot transport more men. The primary goal is to prevent the enemy from spreading. If we encounter intensive bombardment, our planes will be gone, so the goal is to be simpler and destroy the enemy's bombardment." That’s it.”
Gao Guang turned on the intercom. He thought for a moment, and finally said on the intercom: "Lord, Reggae, please come over, there is a situation." The lord didn't say anything, but Lei said seriously: "Received, and in addition Don’t call me reggae, thank you.”
I don’t know why Lei is bothered by this. Should I call him by his full name? However, after thinking about it, Gao Guang understood what Lei meant. Calling him by his full name would be an ugly name. The abbreviation of “Reggae” would be ambiguous.
Congshan Ruliu Gao Guang immediately said: "Okay, Fake Lei Gui, please come over here, it's over."
