Chapter 119: Aftermath
Four hours later, the remaining seventy mercenaries returned to the outside of the mine, they were fleeing for their lives when they evacuated, naturally they ran as fast as they could, and when they came back, they were not so anxious, and the physical exertion was not small, so it took an extra hour.
They received a notice from Liu Bin halfway that the ancient Thai warriors and black wizards in the gold mine had been solved by the masters, and asked them to go back to continue the task and carry the gold, and at the same time bring back the remains of Duan Chunrong and others.
When everyone returned to the mine, they saw that the bodies of the fallen mercenaries had been placed side by side in front of the mine, a total of twenty-two, in addition to the nine members of the No. 8 team, as well as the members of the No. 10 and No. 14 teams who entered the mine, all of them had been moved out.
Zizi No. 8 team members had no other injuries on their bodies except for bleeding from their mouth and nose, which were obviously caused by internal injuries, and those who entered the mine basically had their throats ruptured, apparently killed by sharp teeth or claws that cut the tracheal artery.
Next to the body were baskets containing a large amount of lumps of gold, and the gold that had just been refined in the cave was not the polished gold bars or bricks of the bank, but irregular gold particles the size of thumbs.
Without anyone giving an order, all the mercenaries silently took off their helmets and saluted the bodies in a dignified manner.
Ouyang Fei noticed that the broken corpse of Luo Yu Daoist and the broken Ten Thousand Soul Banner had disappeared, and they should have been taken away by the master in Liu Bin's mouth.
The body of the Thai warrior was placed on the other side of the mine, and his chest was a blur of flesh and blood, as if something had been dug out of his body by life.
From his bloody chest, a strange imprint could be seen, the kind that had been branded raw with red-hot iron.
Ouyang Fei guessed that this brand and those things that were dug up by people were probably the source of the strength of the ancient Thai warriors!
What followed was not much complicated, and everyone went about their business in silence, with two of the squads emptying their backpacks to hold the gold, and others starting to make stretchers to carry the bodies of the fallen mercenaries.
Duan Chunrong and the others were lucky, they died so close to the mercenary group, and their bodies could still be transported back by their brothers.
Those who die in unknown corners of the world are not so lucky, and it is estimated that they will not even be able to find their souls after death.
At dawn, a convoy appeared on the road below the mountain, it was Minden's people, and after they went up the mountain, they led the leader of the team to meet with the captain of the ugly No. 10 squad designated by Liu Bin as the temporary leader, and carried out the handover.
"We have received information about what is happening here, and we are sorry that Mr. Minden will compensate you. ”
"And Mr. Minden promised that if you were to retaliate against Ba Song, we would cooperate fully, and the convoy would give you a ride to transport your fallen brothers. ”
After handing over to the leader of the Minden Army, he conveyed Minden's meaning to the mercenary group.
"Thank you. The captain of the Ugly Word No. 10 team didn't say much, there were some things that he didn't need to say more, and his own high-level people were in charge.
The mercenary group then loaded the bodies of their brothers with the seized guns and ammunition into the car and left.
The two anti-aircraft machine gun mercenaries were left to Minden's men, but they also paid $300,000 to buy them.
The next thing is Mindengjun's own business, they won't care about it anymore, and this time Han Zhifeng suffered such a big loss, the regiment will definitely not let Ba Song go.
As long as Ba Song is destroyed, there are not many forces in the Golden Triangle that can compete with Minden, so as long as they survive this time, this gold mine is basically in Minden's bag.
Ouyang Fei and the others drove down the mountain, and after leaving this mountainous area, they turned east at the next intersection, and still returned to the Bata Mekong River.
This time there was a vehicle, and it was along the road, and it took a few hours to get there on foot in a day's way.
There was already a fleet of boats waiting on the banks of the Mekong River, and the mercenaries carried the bodies of their brothers and the munitions onto the ships and returned to the mercenary group.
After returning to the mercenary group and handling the basic task handover, a grand memorial service was held in the regiment.
The loss of three squads in a large group mission, and the annihilation of the entire team, is very rare in the edge of the Han Dynasty.
In the past large-scale missions, the death of ten or eight mercenaries was already a major loss, and each squad had its own casualties, so at least the seeds of the squad were still retained, which had little impact on the strength of the mercenary group, as long as fresh blood was added, it would soon be able to form combat effectiveness again.
But the death of the whole team is different, especially this time they also lost the top commander of the female worm, Zizi No. 8 was originally the kind of team with the top combat effectiveness of the mercenary group, when did Han Zhifeng suffer such a big loss?
The Hanzhi Edge Mercenary Group is different from other mercenary groups in the world, because they only accept Chinese people, unlike other mercenary groups, they accept anyone, as long as you have the ability.
Although the strength of such a mercenary group is indeed not weak, due to the complex composition of personnel, the cohesion is much worse, and there are often situations where the teams fight with each other.
The edge of the Han Dynasty is different, most of them come from the Chinese army, and even if some are not retired soldiers, they have also received training similar to regular troops in the regiment.
However, it is precisely because they only accept Chinese people, so the development of personnel has been relatively slow, although the base of Chinese retired soldiers is very high, but there are not many who are willing to be mercenaries, so every mercenary in the regiment is very valuable.
At the memorial service, Liu Bin had already made it clear that he would deal a devastating blow to Ba Song, and the order to recall all the squads had been issued, requiring all squads to rush back to the mercenary group within a month.
During this period, all the squads will no longer take on the task, and those who are out will complete the task in hand as quickly as possible and rush back to the mercenary group.
If you can't complete it within a month, you will abandon the mission, and the team will pay double the commission compensation for the failure of the mission.
Of course, this situation is still relatively rare, and the reason why Liu Bin gave everyone a month is to let the teams have enough time to complete the task.
If it's a time-consuming task like finding an object, the commission is usually not high, and even if the group pays double compensation, it's not a big deal.
The more painful thing is those escort tasks, halfway through the task, suddenly picking on the child, which does have some bad effects on the reputation of the mercenary group.
Fortunately, after statistics, only three squads are performing escort tasks this time, two of which can be completed within a month, and the remaining one team is more complicated, and one month may not be enough.
But it doesn't matter, only one less team has little impact, and for the sake of the reputation of the mercenary group, Liu Bin did not force them to rush back.
In the following month, all the squads were nested in the mercenary group, either relaxing or training, and all the commissions had been paid.
This time, everyone gained a lot of money, Ouyang Fei got a commission of more than 400,000 US dollars, and Zhang Chengkun and them were slightly less, only more than 300,000.
In addition to the gold and commissions and those miscellaneous extra income, Minden compensated the mercenary group with an additional $10 million, which can be regarded as a good person.
And Ouyang Fei's income plus the money he saved last year, excluding expenses, the deposit is close to 600,000 US dollars, and the 500,000 yuan owed to Zhang Chengkun can already be repaid.
