Chapter 14: The Evil of Human Nature
In one afternoon, dozens of mercenaries almost the manor to the ground. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The harvest was not small, hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash were found, about a kilogram of gold bars, but the diamonds that Morty had hidden were not found.
Kidman was not reconciled, the diamond must be hidden in some corner of the manor.
In order to gain time, at four o'clock in the afternoon, Kidman sent half of his men and two "Hinds" out.
Instead of attacking the government forces advancing towards Kenema, it is to create some problems for the government forces to slow down their advance and arrive a little later.
It was enough to let two gunships fly overhead, and let the mercenaries set some traps on the marching route.
In addition, Kidman had his men intensify their interrogation.
When the manor was laid, some people were caught, mostly women and children, and there must have been Morty's family, or Morty's relatives.
As the sky grew darker, Kidman's patience ran out.
Gunfire and explosions from the south had been going on all day, and some of Morty's men were still resisting, and government forces had reached the outskirts of Kenema, less than five kilometers from the estate.
Ten minutes earlier, Kidman had given the order to the mercenaries sent out to withdraw after the government forces had stormed the city.
When the time comes, Morty's hidden diamonds will have to be evacuated regardless of whether or not they are found.
Kidman wanted to get the diamonds, but he didn't dare offend the people above.
"Found it!"
Seeing the mercenary coming, Kidman didn't say a word, and immediately picked up the assault rifle on the table and let the mercenary lead the way.
The place where the diamonds are hidden is the pigsty in the northwest corner of the estate.
When Kidman arrived, two mercenaries were digging in sapper sappers, two mercenaries were guarding outside, and there were several dead pigs in the pigsty.
The smell of feces mixed with the smell of blood was pungent.
Soon, the sapper came across a hard object.
The digging mercenaries immediately stopped and used their hands to cut through the floating soil that covered the object.
It is a clay pot with a diameter of about 10 centimeters.
After taking it out, the mercenary opened it and took a look, and then hugged it to Kidman.
It was full of dazzling diamonds, and a few fancy colored diamonds, half a full crockpot, certainly more than 10,000 carats, maybe 20,000 carats.
Without further ado, Kidman took out the flannel bag he had prepared and filled it with all the diamonds.
It's not that he doesn't believe in these subordinates who are born and die, but he is well versed in the evils of human nature. Not to mention half a crockpot of diamonds, just one of them can make these subordinates betray him.
Mercenaries work for money, and all they see is money.
More than a decade ago, also in Sierra Leone, a mercenary betrayed the Legion for a 100-carat pink diamond and killed the Legion Commander in a scuffle.
Kidman would never allow something like this to happen to him.
"Call the others and get ready to evacuate." Kidman put away the flannel pocket.
"Boom-"
The explosion occurred suddenly, and it was the building where Kidman had started.
Because of the imminent evacuation, most of the mercenaries left behind were in that building.
"Boom-boom-boom......"
Explosions occurred one after another, and all the vehicles parked in the estate were blown up.
Government forces called?
"Dada...... Dadada......"
Shots were heard, and the shots were fired from small-caliber assault rifles, not AK and G3 rifles used by government forces.
Kidman didn't think much of it and ran towards the Mi-8TV helicopter parked more than a hundred meters away.
Whether it is the government army or Morty's men, it is now the best policy.
The helicopter has started, but the rotors are not accelerating and are idling.
What's going on!?
Kidman's suspicions were so high that he slowed down his pace, allowing the mercenary who was following him to rush forward.
At this time, the other four mercenaries were on the left and right of Kidman, advancing side by side in an attack formation.
"Da Da Da ......"
With the sound of gunfire, the mercenary who had rushed in front of Kidman collapsed.
Kidman had already been vigilant and had been keeping an eye on the helicopter. When he saw the muzzle flame near the nose wheel of the helicopter, he immediately fell to his stomach.
Several bullets flew past Kidman's scalp.
If he had been slower to react, he would have been hit by a bullet.
"Da Da Da ......"
"Da Da Da ......"
The mercenaries on both sides began to return fire, and the rain of bullets quickly enveloped the helicopter.
"Don't break the helicopter, there's only one enemy!" Kidman yelled, very annoyed.
That's the last helicopter, and we'll have to rely on it to evacuate later.
Kidman has seen that the pilots who remained on the helicopter were taken out.
The pilot is not the key, as Kidman will also fly helicopters.
Hearing Kidman's greeting, the four mercenaries immediately pulled away and advanced towards the helicopter under alternate cover.
Only one enemy, no matter how powerful, could not deal with mercenaries from the left and right at the same time.
Shooting at the mercenaries on one side will definitely expose you to the mercenaries on the other side.
The helicopter was parked in a clearing in the middle of the manor, with no shelter within thirty meters.
The only thing that can stop the bullet is the wheel.
Suppressed by fire, unless it is a madman who does not want to die, he can only hide behind the wheels.
At this time, inside the building where the explosion first occurred.
Wang Dong killed the last mercenary who was not killed, set up the M21SWS that had been installed with a muffler, and advanced to the helicopter in seconds, and the mercenary who was the farthest away.
The muffler comes from the sniper who was killed by Serena and is Serena's trophy.
It's just that Wang Dong didn't fire immediately.
Caught in the flank, Serena had nowhere to escape, but she did not give up, and from time to time raised her assault rifle to fire at the enemy, but she did not have the slightest head.
"Da Da Da ......"
"Poof......
When the M4A1 in Serena's hand spewed out tongues of fire, Wang Dong pulled the trigger.
There is a muffler, the sound of the sniper rifle is very weak, and the muffler has a flame suppression function, the muzzle flame is minimal, and it is not easy to be detected by the enemy.
A headshot, no suspense.
"Da Da Da ......"
"Poof......
When Serena fired again, Wang Dong fired a second bullet.
This time, it was another mercenary on the same side who was killed.
Defeating the enemy on one side of the flank, Serena's situation has improved dramatically.
Only, two companions were killed, and the other mercenaries immediately realized that there was more than one enemy, and the other was a sniper.
The two mercenaries on this side of the building quickly collapsed.
It's a pity that they are in the clearing.
"Poof-poof-"
Wang Dong was not merciful, and firing at the two lying mercenaries was no different from hitting a fixed target.
By the time Wang Dong turned his gun to look for the last mercenary, the guy had disappeared.
Where are you hiding?
Wang Dong turned his head away and didn't use the scope again.
The scope has a narrow field of view, which makes it extremely inconvenient to search for targets.
It was at this time that a flash of light appeared on the body of the mercenary who had been killed by Serena.
Muzzle flame!?
In the midst of the electric light, Wang Dong instinctively buried his head.
"When ......"
I only felt a violent shock in my hand, and the tiger's mouth seemed to crack, and the M21SWS flew out of Wang Dong's hand.
