Chapter 63: I'll Give a Million!
"Let go of the Commander!"
Seeing that the boss was controlled, François's men almost wanted to shoot, but a full five kilograms of explosives were placed in front of their eyes, and several people finally had to put down their weapons and admit defeat, and then look at Shepard.
"You've won, but there's no need to kill them all, let go of the captain, and I'll make sure you leave safely!"
"Leave safely, I don't think you are wrong, I am the one who has the initiative now, and I have the final say on who leaves safely!"
Shepard kicked François's revolver, and his right hand, which was holding the bottle, reversed direction and slammed a punch directly into François's towering nose bone.
"Do you think you'll be able to leave safely? Mr. François? ”
"Kill me, you won't live, my people will chase you to the ends of the earth, your family ......"
Before François could finish his sentence, Shepard's broken bottle stabbed deep into his left hand.
"Since you've said so! Then we'll see! Remember what I said, Captain! ”
Immediately, Shepard let go of his hand, straightened his clothes, and was about to leave, but before he could leave, Shepard suddenly stopped, then turned to a French mercenary in the restaurant and said.
"By the way, guys, I'll pay a million to buy this guy's whole family's head! $1,000,000! I do what I say! ”
As a result, the already tense atmosphere in the restaurant instantly became strange, the mercenaries looked at each other, their eyes flashed, and then a voice suddenly appeared in the crowd.
"Don't believe this American, he must be lying to us and trying to make us kill each other! The Captain is so kind to us that we can't betray us! ”
"It's better to be so, but my promise is still valid, a million!"
Then, Shepard swaggered out of the restaurant, and the PMCs behind him were still vigilant about the mercenaries in the room, and walked out one by one, and the last one was the guy with explosives strapped to his body.
And before walking out of the restaurant, this guy didn't forget to make a ghost, and then took off the vest on his body and threw it into the room, looking at the fuse smoking vest, the French in the room also began to look for cover, everyone held their breath and waited for the moment of death, and then waited for several minutes without explosion, and finally François, who was holding a wine bottle in one hand, got up and kicked the so-called dynamite vest only to find out that this is a fake!
And when the French rushed out of the door, they found that their jeep had also been poisoned, and the tires were out of gas, even if the gear knob was broken!
"You shit, niggas are more useful than you!"
François's hand was pierced, his neck was also cut, and he could only vent his anger on his subordinates at this moment, but he didn't notice at all, his cowering subordinates had a lot of other things in their eyes at the moment, and after he finished venting, he remembered that it seemed that Shepard had just offered himself an unusually high price.
"Well, brothers, I haven't treated you badly all these years, have I?"
"No, no, the captain is good to us! The brethren are living a good life today, but it is all up to the captain! ”
"Then I'm relieved!"
François touched the cold sweat on his head, and said that he really didn't dare to trust the character of his subordinates, but for now he could only gamble.
"Alright, let's get the brethren back to base, I'm going to teach that damn American bastard a good lesson!"
This negotiation is actually the last temptation of the two sides before tearing their faces, François's people can't quit, Shepard can't accept it, everyone is actually meeting for one thing.
"I'm not acting!"
"Boss, I don't understand why you didn't kill that guy there!"
"It's easy to kill him, but it will break the rules of the mercenary industry, we want to become a benchmark in the industry, in addition to having a big fist, reputation is also important!"
One thing to say, if everyone is in the wild, then Shepard definitely doesn't mind the whole suddenness, after all, as long as this kind of thing is extinguished in time, it will not have any impact on the reputation, but everyone is in the city, there are many people, so it is still forbearable.
As for François, that guy didn't dare to shoot, the purpose of taking the gun out was to deter Shepard, but he didn't expect Shepard not to eat this, and even gave him a backhand with a tall horse, if this was spread, his face would be lost!
"And the one million you said? Is it true or fake? ”
"That must be true, I'm the one who says it!"
Shepard raised his finger and pointed to the sky.
His bounty, but seriously, whether it's marketing, or Liwei, in short, this thing can be very bad, but it must be there, spend a lot of money to buy the life of the mercenary leader's family, and it may be laughed at if it is passed out, but when he completely fulfills his promise, if nothing else, at least most people will remember him!
"Will François agree to our terms?"
"Definitely not, Wen Wu is the first and Wu Wu is the second, if that guy retreats, there may not be an employer in the future, so that guy will definitely have a fight with us!"
"And how is he going to fight us?"
"Then you have to pick a place to fight!"
The mercenaries have no stable logistics, no stable support, all-out war is impossible, and the conflict must be the most important node on both sides, the most important node of François is the six mines of the French Brunet company, but Brunet and François have broken up, there is no point in fighting there, on the contrary, the importance of the BHP valley camp to the Shadow Company is self-evident.
"I can only suffer the British a little longer!"
As for whether the other party will sneak attack the camp of the Shadow Company, it is not that Shepard looks down on the other party, the camp of the Shadow Company is set up in the old military camp in Belgium, and it has stone and concrete fortifications, after Shepard took over, the camp has added a lot of sentry towers and observation posts, in addition, there is a civilian around who receives dollars and eats Shadow Aid Food, if he wants to attack here, then he first has to hide thousands of pairs of eyes and mobilize hundreds of people to come over.
As for counterattacking the opponent's camp, it is not realistic for Shepard, his camp has defense, and the opponent's camp also has it, and the combat personnel are placed hundreds of kilometers away, as far as the current logistics supply capacity of the Shadow Company is concerned, it is really going to explode!
So whether it is Shepard or François, what they can choose is the river valley, the mercenaries take the river valley, whether it is them or the mining company behind them, it is a big harvest, and the shadow company to hold the river valley also means that they have successfully knocked out the mercenary's money bags.
Mercenaries don't have money to earn, so can they still be called mercenaries?
