Eight hundred and nine money to buy a helper

Li Huan didn't know when these two helicopters became Li Ang's, but he now fully agreed with this statement, the people of the Xizhao Party blew up their helicopters, and if they wanted to leave the island or go to Shangguan, they needed a means of transportation, and just two helicopters met all their needs.

After the two helicopter pilots were forced to surrender with their hands raised, and then tied up with each other according to Li Ang's orders, a seemingly unsolvable situation was solved by Li Huan and Xiao Fei. Leon and Rodman hung the two helicopter pilots on a tree with bad intentions: "With such a boss is the one who doesn't have to worry about it for the rest of your life." Look at the boss you follow, and then look at the boss we follow, do you think that the same people don't have the same fate?"

"That is, you have to choose the right person with your boss......" Rodman agreed.

Li Huan shrugged helplessly, and gave the two of them a middle finger: "Will the two of you die if you don't make a fool of yourself for a day?" Okay, don't toss these two people, these two people don't have no force, and they are not people with special abilities. Hurry up and clean up the scene, contact Shangguan first, and see what the situation is on her side. ”

"Boss, we're not sycophants, we're sincere!"

Li Ang is indeed sincere, to be honest, for such a result, neither Li Ang nor Rodman is a little disbelieving. They know their boss's ability, he is a cultivator, and he has all kinds of endless methods, but in the military aspect, he is an absolute rookie, but he is such a rookie on the battlefield, but he has completed this kind of task that seems impossible at all. The two of them still don't know how Li Huan managed to drop the bomb in five seconds, and then hide it by himself.

The most critical thing is that from the time the boss leaves to the end of the battle, all the people on the other side are killed, and the whole process does not even take five minutes. Just now, Leon and Rodman were even discussing how to break out and save the boss, but the boss didn't save them, but the boss saved them - and again.

So Li Ang and Rodman really didn't make a fool of themselves, it seems that a boss like Li Huan is simply too good, they don't have to do anything at all. You only need to show your loyalty, help the boss to help, and the boss will take care of the rest. And Li Huan, the boss, has another advantage, that is, although he said that he didn't do anything, or even fulfilled his obligations as a bodyguard, the boss is still very generous, and now the net worth of the two of them is much more solid than that of ordinary rich businessmen......

So this kind of boss doesn't follow that boss, it's not a sycophant at all, it's telling the truth.

"If it's okay, clean up the battlefield, collect ammunition, see if it can be used, and put away all the explosives that can be used. The two helicopters over there, you pack up, find something to cover up, although I think this is the first wave of attacks, but the last wave of attacks, but it is not excluded that they have other people, although our coordinates must have been exposed, but we can still hide the helicopters with exposed coordinates. After Li Huan finished speaking, he dialed Shangguan Qing's phone.

As soon as the phone rang twice, Shangguan Qing over there picked it up: "Li Huan, is something wrong?" Don't worry, I still have 20 minutes to get to the coordinates you said, and I have already brought a large number of assistants over...... Don't miss it until you're sure. When these helpers of mine arrive, we'll fight them again!"

"It's okay, you don't have to worry, I've already settled the matter. Li Huan couldn't cry or laugh: "I was just solving the matter here, and I forgot to ask you." You always say helpers, where did you find helpers, are those helpers reliable? Now we don't have that much need for force, and if those helpers are not reliable, you'd better get rid of them right away and don't bring them to our coordinates. ”

"It's settled? Great, I've been worried about you. Shangguan Qing said: "Are you doing it again? I said that I have a helper who will come, why do you always not listen to me?"

"It's not a question of whether you can do it brutally or not, if I don't do it, you may not have me anymore. And I wasn't hurt...... Let's talk about the helper first?" Li Huan asked, "Is it reliable?"

"Reliable? There is no reliable thing in this world, except for believing in one's friends and family, there is no reliable person in this world. Shangguan Qing said, "You don't have to worry about me." If I don't need to, then I'll dismiss all of them. I was worried about your comfort just now, so I left them behind, and now if I don't need them, then I will definitely dismiss them, I don't need to say this. Okay, you wait for me a little bit, and I'll send them back first, so that they won't be too busy to do things after they get to our destination with us. ”

After speaking, Shangguan Qing hung up the phone.

A few minutes later, Shangguan Qing called, and now her tone was much more relaxed. The main thing is that the crisis on Li Huan's side has been lifted, as long as Li Huan's crisis has been lifted, then everyone's big crisis has already been over, because few people can suppress Li Huan, not to mention that there are two elites, Rodman and Li Ang, who are assisting from the side.

Therefore, Shangguan Qing only has time to talk to Li Huan about the "reinforcements" just now.

It turned out that not long after Shangguan Qing and the two Russian girls left the lake hut, their hovercraft was intercepted. That's right, the same group of people who will come to help - mercenaries who don't know anything but money. Not to mention that this group of mercenaries is indeed very elite, their elite level is unimaginable to Shangguan Qing. Shangguan Qing herself is from the special air service brigade, a soldier who has undergone special operations training, and her vision is already high, and what can make her feel elite must be the elite of the elite. She is even comparing the two sides, if the special air crew team has not experienced the improvement of aura now, and this group of guys who are not really fighting in the battlefield, without the full support of the country, it is really hard to say which side will win and which side will lose.

Half an hour after the hovercraft departed, Shangguan Qing and the others first encountered interception in a vast body of water - two speedboats drove off from the two nearby lake islands, and the entire ship's broadside left the water, which showed the speed. The two speedboats outflanked them from the left and right, and the purpose was obvious, that is, they wanted to force Shangguan Qing and their hovercraft to stop. Seeing this, Agata sneered and led the two pursuers towards the place where there was a lake reef - although Baikal is a lake, its ecology is extremely similar to the marine environment, and there are even coral reefs growing in it. In some places, the reef is less than half a metre from the lake.

The hovercraft is extremely powerful, designed to handle all kinds of hostile environments, and it is destined to travel in a way that is not like any other boat. Hovercraft is a ship that uses high-pressure air to form an air cushion between the bottom of the ship and the water surface (or ground) to make the hull fully or partially raised, thereby greatly reducing the resistance of the hull when sailing and realizing high-speed sailing. An air cushion is formed by a high-power blower that presses air under the bottom of the boat, which is restricted by an air seal device such as a flexible apron or rigid sidewall around the bottom of the boat.

At the beginning of the 19th century, it was recognized that pushing compressed air under a ship could reduce sailing resistance and increase speed. In 1953, the Briton Cockerrell created the air cushion theory, and after a lot of experiments, the world's first hovercraft was built in 1959 and successfully crossed the English Channel. After 1964, the types of hovercraft increased, and the application became more and more extensive, mostly used as high-speed and short-distance passenger transport, leisure tourism, patrol, rescue and rescue, commercial, survey and survey, military and other aspects, with a speed of up to 60~80 knots.

The disadvantage of hovercraft is that it has poor seakeeping and has a large stall in wind and waves. The hull of the hovercraft is generally made of aluminum alloy, high-strength steel or fiberglass composite materials, the power plant is made of aero engine, high-speed diesel engine or gas turbine, and the bottom apron is made of high-strength nylon rubber cloth, which can be replaced after wear.

Britain was the first country to develop hovercraft. In the early 60s, the British Navy set up a hovercraft test team to conduct a series of combat environment tests on different types of hovercraft

Hunt minesweeping, amphibious landing, missile launching, anti-submarine and so on, and select a suitable boat type from them. The Navy has been equipped with 50-ton BH7 multi-purpose hovercraft. Among them: when the BH7-V.+ mine-hunting hovercraft carries mine-hunting equipment, it can carry out mine-hunting operations at a speed of 10 knots at a wave height of 3 meters. The BH7-V. combat hovercraft are fast missile patrol boats armed with two Exocet missiles and a double-barreled 30mm automatic cannon. The BH7-IV logistics support hovercraft can transport 170 heavily armed landing troops, or three field trucks and 60 combatants. There are also 105-ton VT-2 missile hovercraft, equipped with two "Ottomat" ship-to-ship missiles and one 76-mm automatic naval gun, with a loading capacity of 32 tons, which can also be used for anti-submarine, mine-sweeping, mine-laying and logistical support.

Designed and built by the Shipbuilding Joint Stock Company of the Central Design Bureau "Almaz" in St. Petersburg, the Russian Zubr-class air-cushion landing craft is 57.4 meters long and 22.3 meters wide, making it the largest air-cushion warship in the world. According to relevant NATO reports, since 1986, Russia has built 10 Zubr-class air-cushion landing craft. The Citigroup Navy applied air-cushion landing craft as early as the Vietnam War, gaining real combat experience. Later, in 1978, two 160-ton amphibious air-cushion landing test craft, JEFF (A) AND JEFF (B), were built, and after a large number of tests and comparisons, the plan to develop a naval air-cushion landing craft (LCAC) based on JEFF (B) was confirmed. Since the 80s, small batch production has been started, and trial drills and improvements have been strengthened, and various technical support has been built simultaneously. Citigroup proposed a brand-new landing concept: a large amphibious assault ship as the main body, carrying air-cushion landing craft, amphibious tanks and marines for ocean-going operations. During the Gulf War, the US Navy's two amphibious formations (including the "Wasp"-class amphibious assault ship and the "Whitbey"-class dock landing ship) carried 17 LCAC-type air-cushion landing craft and frequently carried out amphibious landing feints, fully demonstrating their might and playing a role in threatening and diverting the Iraqi army. The LCAC has been successfully used in the Somalia and Haiti crises and in flood relief operations in Bangladesh and is known as the leader of modern landing craft. Japan and other countries will also order LCAC boats. The Citigroup Army is also very satisfied with its 26 LACV-30 hovercraft and is preparing to purchase larger hovercraft carriers.

France has military hovercraft with a total weight of 27 tons, a speed of 60 knots, and a capacity of 120 soldiers. Canada built the 35-ton "Boatman" class as a means of transporting military supplies in the Arctic. Many countries, including Finland, Australia, and Indonesia, are also engaged in the development of military applications for hovercraft. Founded in 1970, the British Hovercraft Company develops, designs and manufactures heavy lift hovercraft. This unique experience and knowledge, combined with more than 40 years of successful design, development and operation, combined with marine manufacturing and infrastructure construction, has made the British hovercraft company the best choice for international heavy lift hovercraft, a world leader in heavy lift hovercraft.

The hovercraft piloted by Shangguan Qing and the others is still a full-lift cushion.

The full-cushion hovercraft is a high-performance ship that uses a cushion fan to inject compressed air into the bottom of the ship, and forms an "air cushion" between the supporting surfaces to make the hull leave the bearing surface.

The full-cushion lift hovercraft is propelled by an air propeller, and the bottom of the ship is off the water when sailing, so it has good landing speed. Militarily, hovercraft are the most ideal landing combat transport equipment, and their high speed and landing ability have greatly increased the speed of landing and beaching, increased the tactical suddenness, and are conducive to being able to go up and break through. The cushion-lift hovercraft can not only sail on water, ice and snow, but also land on beaches and other interfaces, dock at coastal islands without dock facilities, and implement uninterrupted logistical supply without docks, which is conducive to assault in depth; it is also an ideal type of minehunter and minesweeper. In addition, it can also be used for patrol and vigilance, transportation, emergency rescue and disaster relief tasks between shoals, tidal flats and islands. Because the full-cushion hovercraft has good passability, it is limited by tides, water depth, mine obstacles, landing obstacles, and near-shore submarine slope and bottom quality, so it can carry out landing operations on more than 70% of the world's coasts (displacement landing craft can only land on 17% of the world's coastlines). In addition, this kind of landing hovercraft can still sail at a speed of 30~40 knots or even higher under the condition of combat loading, which greatly shortens the time for the landing force to be exposed to the enemy's shore fire force, speeds up the landing speed, and improves the safety of the landing force.

To put it simply, the hovercraft piloted by Shangguan Qing and them is not afraid of underwater reefs at all, and if needed, their hovercraft can even travel on land. So the girls put them together and simply took them into the coral reef. As soon as the speedboat enters the reef, it is an absolute death. And Agata is also very confident, because she has been stationed in Irkutsk and knows a thing or two about the hydrology of Lake Baikal, and she knows where dangerous waters are, and these waters will basically not be able to sink as long as the boats pass by.

The three girls made up their minds to introduce them to the reef first.

The result is very plump in ideals, and very skinny in reality.

They did lead the two speedboats to the reef, but before they could enter the reef themselves, the hovercraft stalled. You must know that the engine of the hovercraft is extremely strong, and there are three insurances, unless it is damaged, there is no possibility of stalling - but when their boat is completely stopped, they find that the engine position behind the hovercraft has been pierced by several bullets. That is, the engine was broken.

Three girls, you look at me, I look at you, they all feel incredible.

Yes, if it comes to accurate shooting at long distances, the three girls are not bad. Especially the two girls from the Russian special forces, both of whom had sniper scores of more than one kilometer. If you want to talk about distance, the speedboat that has just chased the hovercraft is at most more than 300 meters away from the hovercraft. More than 300 meters doesn't even need an accurate shooter in normal times, ordinary trained soldiers can do it - but if the place is different, then the situation is different, for example, on two high-speed pursuing ships, on the bumpy water, can complete accurate shooting from 300 meters away, this marksman can make such a result?

Eventually, they were surrounded by two speedboats that they were chasing.

"Three hundred meters of accurate shooting, still on the bumpy water, these people are really amazing...... Such a god is a great threat even to cultivators. So what did you end up doing? Don't tell me, they're the helpers you're talking about. They're obviously the ones invited by the sunset, so why are you getting involved with them again? Don't tell me you're convinced. Even Li Huan was incredibly surprised when he heard it, if he talked about himself, he felt that he could do it, because no matter how difficult the shooting distance was, after Xiao Fei's calculations, he only needed to shoot according to the calculations on the virtual screen. But if he didn't let Xiaofei's assistance come by himself, then Li Huan might not be able to hit the target in his life. Such a shooter can no longer be called terrible, it should be said that it is perverted.

As for what Li Huan said was convinced, it was because he often used such means. But since the opponent has this level of accurate shooter, it should not be easily subdued. At least Shangguan, weren't they forced to leave on their own initiative?

"It's not that you can be subdued, in terms of combat effectiveness, I really can't say which side is stronger, but if you look at the situation just now, if we just resist, we will already be dead. Shangguan Qing said.

"Then why did they become your reinforcements?" Li Huan was even more clueless now: "Do you want to tell me that they are merciful and see that we are less bullied, so they are full of confidence and want to help? That's even more impossible, what kind of good things can the people who come out of the sunset show." ”

"Of course not, they are not from the evening note, they are just ordinary mercenaries, what is the best way to deal with mercenaries?" Shangguan Qing obviously enjoyed his temporary decision: "

After they caught up with us, I tentatively asked how much our heads were worth, and the final answer was that my heads were worth 10 million dollars, and yours more. Because Agata told me about this, I thought about it and paid for the peace and asked them to let us go. ”

"Are you kidding?" Li Huan felt that he had heard the biggest joke in the world: "They were sent to arrest you, and then you gave them money to let you go, so why do you say there are such things as mercenaries in this world? Although mercenaries are doing things for money, they are also a bit disciplined, right? Aren't Li Ang and Rodman mercenaries once mercenaries?"

"Hmm...... Leon and Rodman are about to become your brothers, so naturally they are not the same. Shangguan Qing said: "But AgatΓ© and Luo Weisha told me that this person will accept money, so I tried to scare it, so I said that I doubled the bounty myself, but they let me go without saying a word." Then I asked again, far from the distance to help, if I wanted, I would pay twice as much, and they followed with great interest. ”

Li Huan suddenly felt that the whole person was not good: "So the helpers you are talking about are them? You dare to use such a helper for the wall-grass? What if you sell us again when the time comes?"

"No, I know you're rich!" Shangguan Qing was a little embarrassed: "And you weren't blocked in the tunnel at that time, and you needed help, so don't worry about loyalty...... If the other party adds more money, it's a big deal that we will add more, right?"

After speaking, she added: "Well, although I said so, I don't have the money...... Their leader is with me right now, waiting for us to pay. If we don't pay, they will turn against each other again. ”

Speaking of this, Shangguan Qing's voice was a little quieter, and she herself seemed to feel a little embarrassed - indeed, this thing is a bit blind, but as the saying goes, caring is chaos, Li Huan can't cry or laugh, he feels that he can no longer face the mercenaries.

Mercenaries were originally a special profession that referred to armed personnel who fought for money, groups and individuals who participated in an armed conflict for profit. A mercenary fights only for money, and he can be hired by anyone as long as the other party bids high enough. From barbarians in the ancient Roman armies to European prisoners exiled to Africa during the post-colonial period, mercenaries have long been seen as a group of people who "want money rather than life". In many people's understanding, mercenaries bring nothing but suffering and death to others, and the only motive that motivates them to fight is money.

The sources of mercenaries are very diverse, and mercenaries are recruited, and veterans are generally selected (special forces are preferred). Mercenaries are not necessarily all in the army, pilots and marines are also sought-after goods among mercenaries. The salary of mercenaries can be divided into different grades according to the degree of danger of the mission, different types of troops, and different sources. Recruitment targets include civilians, ex-soldiers, outlaws, etc., and they can join after passing the assessment. No matter what you have done, as long as you sign up and pass the assessment, you can join, and after joining, you will be assigned to each corps according to its set of training methods. Citigroup's mercenaries are generally not organized through the government, but through various bodyguard companies, and are generally run by people with backstage, such as former military officers. Citigroup's bodyguard companies generally recruit personnel in a targeted manner, and the quality of personnel is relatively high. Generally in cooperation with the tasks in a certain area, if the US government has any inconvenient things to come forward, it will be handed over to the bodyguard company to do. This is a low risk and can be denied in the event of failure.

The mercenaries in Afghanistan and Chechnya are fighting for money, and there are also some extreme religious believers who are not for money but only for faith. These people are relatively weak in combat capability and generally have to be screened.

It sounds like mercenaries are all about money, but in fact, mercenaries are loyal, and they are extremely loyal.

For example, France, the most bizarre country in the world, has a "mercenary legion" in the official sequence of their army.

Founded in 1831, the French Foreign Legion was at the forefront of French colonial operations during the 19th century. The Corps fought in Spain, Madagascar, Algeria and Southeast Asia, and they were almost synonymous with France's long war in Algeria. In 1841 at Sidi Belle Abbas, 96.5 km south of Oran, a base was established for the Foreign Legion. It became the spiritual home of the Corps until France allowed Algeria to become independent and withdrew its troops in 1962.

In 1914, most of the French troops stationed in Africa hurried back to mainland France to stop the German invasion. Soldiers of the Foreign Legion fought for honor during the ensuing massacres on the Western Front. In fact, by 1918 the Foreign Legion was the highest Order of Honor in the All-French Army.

The French Foreign Legion is not a mercenary force but a French official force, which has the same status as members of French nationality during contract service, and is protected by the general rules of the United Nations, and is not a mercenary force prohibited by the Geneva Convention. The French Foreign Legion belongs to the volunteer system, and the conscripts belong to the same government regular army establishment, as well as the Spanish Foreign Legion, the 369th Infantry Regiment of Citi during World War I, and the French colonial conscription army Seganel Black Regiment, etc., which are all recognized by the laws of various countries and promise to guarantee the legitimate rights and interests of the other party's soldiers in wartime (including surrender, surrender, and the rights and interests of protected medical personnel, etc.).

Since the 90s of the 20th century, international wars have continued. The territorial dispute between Ethiopia and Eritrea has not subsided, Sri Lanka has reappeared, and Sierra Leone has renewed its dispute...... In the midst of this great frenzy of war, a strange army has emerged, and its name is mercenary. It can be said that in recent years, with the successive setbacks of United Nations peacekeeping operations, mercenaries are increasingly becoming the protagonists of countries and regions with turbulent situations and constant wars.

Of course, in addition to the strange example of France, there is more of a group of professional killers who "eat on war".

They were hired to carry out all sorts of assassinations, kidnappings, wars, and even coups. The composition of mercenaries is complex, and there are all kinds of people, but they have one thing in common, that is, they all like war, and war is everything in their lives. "Whoever pays, works for whomever lives", this is a basic principle that mercenaries follow together.

However, mercenaries still have the most basic loyalty - if the two sides are hostile, then after taking on the next mission, they cannot switch to the other side, for example, in the case of the most lethal Israeli mercenaries, the country has been at war for a long time, so this group of people has been created.

Due to the shrinking economy, the good days of officers who left the army and moved to the comfortable private management class have become a thing of the past, and even generals often cannot find good errands. After 20 years of living an extremely stressful but powerful life, these 40-year-old veterans suddenly found that they no longer had a public car, a driver, or even a telephone, and they were inevitably a little lost. So, they picked up their weapons and went overseas.

The Israeli military is highly trained and efficient. Their outward ruthlessness and inner loyalty make them a hot spot in the global mercenary market. In the early 80s of the 20th century, Filipino high society hired Israelis as personal bodyguards, and some wealthy even had private armies trained by Israeli ex-servicemen. Military groups in South America also made it fashionable to hire Israeli mercenaries. The loyalty of mercenaries can also be seen here - if it is the kind of person who can meet at any time and give money to negotiate terms, who would dare to use mercenaries......

But Shangguan Qing encountered such a batch of strange things, Li Huan couldn't cry or laugh, and asked Shangguan Qing to come to the other party's bank account, and then made a phone call to the bank and asked the bank to transfer money immediately. Li Huan knew that although his three views had been challenged, he was afraid that the people who hired them would not have been challenged by the three views now, maybe the three views had been shattered, and they were sparsely broken, and they couldn't pick them up.
