Chapter 345: Ten Teams, Let's Go
There is still a difference between a mercenary group and a private military company.
The biggest difference is that mercenary groups are not legal and are not protected by law. Whereas, private military companies are legal and protected by the laws of the Celestial Wolf Empire.
Of course, the two also have a lot in common, such as both will betray force and so on. There are even some private military companies, which are serious companies on the surface, but secretly do some mercenary group business.
At a more advanced level, some private military companies cooperate deeply with some mercenary groups, or simply cultivate a mercenary group on their own and let them do things that are inconvenient for them......
Roy's pothos company is ready to take the elite route, so there will be no large-scale recruitment in the early stage.
His plan was that, for the time being, only a thousand fighters and two thousand logisticians would be needed.
Of course, if there are so many people, then this is not a small private military company, at least it is a medium-sized one.
At present, the company has only 500 fighters and more than 100 logistics personnel. Because it is going to take the elite route, it is relatively slow to recruit people.
But this task requires a lot of people, so Roy plans to outsource partially, and at the same time, he also wants to see if there are small companies and mercenary groups suitable for long-term cooperation and even training.
When the pothos company grows bigger in the future, there must be some partners to do something that is inconvenient for them or has low returns.
Just as the Department of Defense outsources tasks, Roy will outsource some tasks in the future......
As a new company with a small name, the easiest way to attract people is to spend money.
Roy directly took out five million, half of the amount entrusted by the Ministry of Defense. That's a lot of money, after all, Roy is not all outsourced, and his own pothos company is also involved. Plus this is a commission from the Ministry of Defense......
So, the next day, a bunch of applicants came.
The pothos company goes to work at 8 a.m. and leaves work at 6 p.m. However, this is the time to open to the public, or to receive foreign guests. The actual working hours are much longer.
It's not that Roy squeezes employees, it's because the nature of the work is different.
This is a private military company, although it has no other tasks other than providing security for Roy for the time being, but even a security guard must be on call twenty-four hours a day.
Combatants are on standby, and logisticians must be on standby as well.
Therefore, the working hours of the employees of the green pothos company are actually three shifts, of course, Roy gives overtime pay, which is definitely the conscience of the industry.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the pothos company officially opened, and there was a long queue outside. There are also a lot of foreign vehicles parked in the open-air parking lot next to it.
The front desk of the pothos company naturally knew what the situation was, and after a few beautiful girls said some kind words, they let everyone in.
A total of forty people applied for the job, which represented forty forces. This number is much higher than Roy predicted.
Roy asks Grace to receive her, and Grace asks briefly about the basics. Roy himself was looking at the resumes they had brought.
There may be some polishing in the writing of the resume, but the content is definitely true. After all, they are all people in a circle, and it is very convenient to inquire about the news, if you dare to cheat on this, your reputation will be gone. ….
After the preliminary interview, Roy also read his resume, and he directly eliminated twenty forces.
The comprehensive strength of these forces is too poor, and they are all boasting about how good they are, but they don't even have a record of showing their hands. There are even a few mercenary groups that were formed only yesterday...... This is clearly to fish in troubled waters.
Although Roy is not an elite recruiter, and he is not short of this money, this kind of bastard definitely does not want it.
After screening out twenty forces, they went through a second round of re-examination.
This time, Roy came forward in person, and brought Janet and Adrian with him.
In this round, eleven more factions were screened out, and in the end, only nine factions remained. They are three small private military companies and six mercenary groups.
The three small military companies were really small, one for twenty fighters, one for thirty fighters, and the last for fifty fighters. Three
There are only 100 people in the family.
Although they also take the elite route, they are still much worse than Roy's pothos company.
In fact, they are a real small private military company, and Roy's pothos company is a special case, after all, who made Roy, the boss, rich.
Then there are six mercenary groups, and these six mercenary groups have a lot of people, and they can provide up to two thousand people.
Roy doesn't need that much, though. He made a simple distribution, the largest mercenary group with two hundred people, and the other five mercenary groups with one hundred people each.
Roy's goal is not only to complete the mission, but also to find future partners to see if there is a team worth working with for a long time. So there are a little more teams.
At this point, a thousand combatants are considered to be together.
Roy likes to be efficient and gets people together in one morning.
At noon and in the afternoon, people from other forces came to the pothos company, but the front desk said that they were sorry and that the recruitment had ended.
Many people beat their chests and pause. I finally waited for a task that was generous to the Ministry of Defense, but because I was a little late, I missed the opportunity. It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world.
Roy explained the precautions to these people and then began to sign the contract.
The prices of the three small private military companies were 140,000, 210,000 and 350,000 respectively.
The prices of the six mercenary groups are 1 million for the mercenary group of 200 people, and 660,000 for each of the remaining mercenary groups.
The money is calculated according to their strength and past prices.
The three small private military companies have fewer people, but if they are average to people, their prices are the highest. After all, it is elite, and it is normal for the price to be higher. And he needs to perform some difficult tasks.
As for those mercenary groups, although the price is not low, the average price is more than 5,000 wolf coins per person, which is definitely the price of the elite. But to put it bluntly, this money is the real money for life. Because they are in charge of the frontal battlefield, they are bound to die. If you don't give more, no one will die.
It's hard to say whether the distribution of prices is fair, anyway, everyone is satisfied.
Specifically, the leaders of these teams are satisfied. As for the question of how much they want to give their men, or whether they don't share them, that's their own business. ….
However, the reputation of these forces selected by Roy is not bad, and there is no one who is particularly picky.
Roy didn't want their leaders to be too picky and cause them to be unable to work on the battlefield.
After explaining their affairs, let them go home first and get ready, and gather tomorrow morning with all the men and equipment in Nanlai Harbor.
Some missions will provide equipment, which is considered to be borrowed, and must be returned when it is used up. But Roy's mission obviously won't be provided, after all, they have given so much money, and they bring their own equipment.
The three PMCs are legal and have gun licenses, so there's nothing wrong with carrying weapons.
But the six mercenary groups are not, they can't carry weapons in public, and it will be more troublesome to go abroad if they want to carry weapons, or rather, it will cost money.
But it's not a big problem, Roy's pothos company is handled with the help of the Eller family, and it has a lot of authority. In addition, he also has arms companies and trading companies that cooperate with the Sky Wolf Empire. What is troublesome to others is not a problem to him at all.
But although these mercenary groups are not large, they have their own way of survival.
Since their main place of activity was abroad, their weapons and equipment were not brought in. When you go abroad, you can get the weapon by handing over it to the people they left behind.
Since people have a way, then Roy doesn't have to worry about it.
After letting them go back to prepare, Roy thought for a moment and decided that he would go to this mission himself.
After all, it is the first task of the pothos company, or the commission of the Ministry of Defense, and it must be completed beautifully. There aren't many people in his hands, so let's go by myself, those who can work hard.
Unsure of how long the mission would take, Roy didn't let Janet follow. Although Janet is a very strong
bodyguard, but Roy needs her to keep an eye on the stock of the Syxth, ready to buy it at a low price. Roy has prepared a billion dollars, and he has to be watched by someone he trusts.
As for Grace, Roy didn't let her come, after all, she was powerless, and it was useless to go to the war zone. Roy asked her to stay at the pothos company and act as a liaison, and Roy had to make sure that he could be reached when he needed to contact the pothos company.
Then Roy told Erin that he was going to lead the team on this mission himself.
Erin would love to come along, but she knew it wasn't possible, her parents wouldn't agree, and she was busy with her own affairs.
But Erin thought of a solution. She is now engaged in charity, if there are casualties in Roy's team or local civilians, she can allocate some money in the name of humanitarian relief to lead the doctors to treat the wounded.
The idea was a good one, and Roy nodded his head when he heard it. Then Roy snitched off Erin's parents. Humanitarian aid is okay, but Erin can't go.
After all, Tajinjiao is very messy, and Erin, an ordinary human woman, is prone to danger.
However, Roy also said that if the chaos stopped after he took Ward 32, he could allow Erin to come over.
Then, under Erin's resentful eyes, Roy led the team out.
Roy brought two hundred people, counting him two hundred and one, which means that he didn't bring logistics. ….
Under normal circumstances, small teams can do it without logistics, and people can do it themselves. But he had a team of 200 people, and he was not sure when the task would be completed, so he had to bring some logistics personnel over.
But Roy didn't, for the simple reason that the logistics of the pothos company were provided by the Ayler family falcon company.
Because the Falcon Company has a long-term branch in Tajinjiao, the logistics are very comprehensive. The logistics team of the green pothos company can't compare with them for the time being, so just use theirs directly.
Of course, it's not free, it's a normal business cooperation, and money is given.
Fixed price, 500,000 a month.
Falcon will provide some basic information, weapons and ammunition, food, accommodation, vehicles and other related logistics support.
This is not a low price, but after all, this is a war zone, and Falcon is a large private military company, so the logistics are very good. The price is reasonable.
As for the other teams, they more or less brought some logistics personnel, Roy didn't let them bring more, anyway, the Falcon Company would provide the supplies or something, and their logistics only needed to run errands.
A small car with three trucks departed from the pothos company and soon arrived at the port of Nanlai.
The place where this mission went was Tajin Horn, which was located in the middle of the Holy Dome Continent, to the west of the Heavenly Wolf Empire, and was an inland region. Although it is not close to the sea, there is a large river called the "Erm River" that connects to the sea from the central region of the Holy Dome.
It is obviously more convenient to take a boat than to travel by land. Although you need to take a detour, you don't need to change trains. And with so many people, if you drive there, the ride experience is too uncomfortable.
When Roy arrived at the docks, the rest of the team was already ready.
"Mr. Roy!"
Seeing Roy's motorcade, those team leaders hurried over to say hello.
"Hmm."
Roy nodded, then said:
"Let's go, get on board."
Several people looked in the direction of Roy's finger, and suddenly their mouths opened slightly.
Good guys, this is a battleship!
The three warships were quietly docked on the dock, and the surrounding idlers and others had been emptied.
These leaders had seen the three battleships a long time ago, but they didn't know that they were prepared by Roy.
They need to carry out the task of going to sea, they all buy tickets to take commercial ships, chartering ships is already a luxury, as for warships...... That's something you can't even think of.
I didn't expect Roy to directly dispatch the battleship, or three battleships!
Everyone looked at each other and could see the shock in each other's eyes. It is worthy of being a company that can receive commissions from the Ministry of Defense, although its reputation is not obvious
, but the hard power is obviously extremely strong!
Speaking of which, many of them haven't been on a battleship yet......
Roy didn't have large civilian ships in his hands, only warships. In that case, then use it. Although the battleship was for the war service, and the ride experience may not be very good, Roy activated three, and he himself took two hundred people on one, which was not too crowded.
These ships belonged to Roy's Iris Trading Company. A trading company, with several warships, is also reasonable.
Now the battleship flies the flag of the United Kingdom of Stokato. After going to sea, Roy will change to the flag of the Sirius Empire, after all, the name of the Sirius Empire is more useful.
Roy took his men on the first ship, and the others got on the other two ships like dirt buns.
With a few long whistles, the chimneys of the three battleships spewed out a puff of black smoke and slowly sailed out of Nanlai Harbor.
The first stop is the Kingdom of Simon, where the mouth of the Rum River is located, as are the firearms and supplies of the other teams. After the mercenary group got the supplies, Roy paid another toll and followed the Rum River into a dock inland. Then get off the boat and take the Falcon company car, and you can get to Tajin Point.
It is expected to take three days.
