Chapter 1131: The Lighting Project (22)
The small building was a simple detention center set up by Vermer, guarded by his men in turn. The group of mercenaries and bounty hunters were kept inside, tied with steel cables, and placed in different huts.
"I'm still not sure if anyone else else has the same idea except for Harrington, and this is also to save unnecessary and cumbersome investigation time. As he went upstairs, Vermel explained that he knew in his heart that some of the group might have something to do with Kasia. I had this idea when I controlled these people, and it was also because of this reason that I didn't do anything out of the ordinary in the first place.
The second floor was quiet, and Vermeer briefly talked about the actions of Harrington and the others, as well as the list of people who wanted to cooperate with the enemy. Phinea and Gers were not included, or Harrington was not looking down on the strength of the two to a certain extent.
"Vermer, I knew you would do this, fifty million is not a small amount. From the very beginning, you have been thinking that when people die, there is no point in paying bounties. Harrington had a lot of injuries on his body, and the steel cable was covered with dried blood, and he became a little emotional when he saw Vermeer come in. Knowing that the only thing that awaits you is death, you can't hide from it, and it's better to talk more when you're alive, "Wait, you don't know anything about that side, but I'm looking forward to meeting you down there soon." β
Vermel and Kasia just looked at Harrington quietly for a few moments, then closed the door. There was still a roaring sound, and the three people who were guarding outside immediately stood up and hit Harrington on the head a few times with the butt of the musket after entering, and the sharp sound disappeared immediately in the sound of metal colliding. It seems that they are doing a lot of it.
"Since you've identified the Harrington ones, I think it's best to dispose of them at the moment. Kasia told Vermer, "Just wait for the time to attack, and there will be no other action in between." β
Vermer looked at Kasia, and after a moment's apparent thought, he waved at his men beside him. The body bag and other items had already been prepared, and after receiving the order, the three guards all moved.
"This way. What the three men were doing did not affect Vermer, and although the voices of several others begging for mercy echoed in his ears, he said kindly and pointed to the other room in front of him.
Phinea and Gels were in much better shape than Harrington, but they were also covered in steel cables. Inevitably, the impact of the slightest accident would be extraordinary, and Vermer would not dare to make mistakes in these little things.
"Mr. Soriatuγγγ" Phinea's voice gradually lowered, until at last it was gone. The soundproofing of the room is not good, and the movement next to it has been captured by the two of them. It seemed that he wanted to explain something, but seeing that Kasia and Vermel were standing together, perhaps because they had misunderstood the relationship between the two, Phinea didn't know what to say for a while.
After confirming the condition of the two, Kasia opened the door, and Vermer then spoke on the side: "I will let them go when it is over, but I can't guarantee that the bounty will be 50 million, but there will be, and I will try my best to get the maximum amount for them, this is my personal commitment." β
"Thank you, let's go to the next place while we still have time. β
The destination was where the second group of reinforcements led by Evan was hiding, near a food processing factory in another town. After the three of them passed, they went directly to the spacious basement, which was originally a cellar, and the original owner used to store a large amount of alcohol, and until now there is a faint aroma.
Vermer compiled the maps he had investigated, provided by Kasia, and revealed by Waters into a panoramic map for combat use, which was nailed to a large square table. Various signs have been made on it, along with the hypothetical time of the attack, as well as several sets of plans for the distribution of personnel and weapons. Wimmer has also made the best efforts to provide information about the enemy and defenders, but the information is still insufficient.
As he began to explain the plan of attack he had discussed with Evan, Kasia listened. After ten minutes of explanation, after jotting down the map, Kasia picked up the marker pen on the map and added a return route.
"You don't need so many people here at the air defense base. Putting the pen away, Kasia pointed to the return route, "but you need a limousine with very good performance that can guarantee the fastest return from the air defense base to the mine." Two or three people are enough, and the role is to report information to you in a timely manner after the air defense base is breached. On your side, you'd better send the rest of the men to the mines. The enemy army is stationed there, most of their surgeons are there, and it is much better to concentrate on them. β
"But γγγ"
Kasia interrupted Vermer with a wave of his hand: "No, however, more people will hinder the operation of my side." If you insist, Mr. Vermer, it is also for the sake of the insurance of your heart, and I have no objection to the plan you and Mr. Evan have made. It's just kind advice, you know, most of the Empire's surgeons are concentrated in the mines, and you need the number of people to bridge the gap in strength. It is expected that half an hour after the start of the operation, the air defense base will be completely destroyed. I will rush back to support you as soon as possible. β
"Mr. Soriatu. Perhaps seeing Vermer's embarrassment, Evan interjected, "I have no intention of offending or suspecting anything, but everyone knows that there is only one chance, and the upper echelons have a lot of determination. If it fails, my two teams and Vermer's team won't have to go back. β
"Mr. Evan, your team members should be here by now. Kasia didn't refute anything, he picked up a piece of paper, sketched a simple diagram, and drew his position and a circle, indicating the direction, "In this circle, there are thirty-two members. If I had a heavy machine gun with acid platinum bullets at hand, I would be lurking in this position. β
Making a motion of pressing the trigger, Kasia nodded as if praising himself: "Mr. Evan, what do you think will happen here in tens of seconds with the rate of fire of a heavy machine gun? There's still time, Mr. Evan, can you go and determine the exact number. β
"No need. Evan replied, taking a deep breath and looking at Kasia with a change in his eyes, "But that doesn't make sense. What we need is 10,000 insurance. β
"My people and I are all about insurance, and this is not to take lightly, but to state the facts. You have reasons why you have to succeed, and I have reasons why you have to succeed, and we are really on the same page. You can deal with the rebel surgeons, but I'm sorry for the Imperial surgeons, but I'm not optimistic about you. As I said just now, one of the vice captains of the opposing team can do it. If the quality of the team is excellent, I think there will be more people who can accomplish the same thing. β
The two didn't reply for a while, and Kasia put down the pen and paper: "There is still time, I hope to consider and reply as soon as possible." Also, regardless of the final decision, please have your limousine ready. β
