Chapter 34 Half a Head
The name Free Mercenary sounds beautiful, but it is very cruel. The so-called free mercenary just can't find a mercenary group to rely on. They can only find work by themselves or in partnership with three or two people. Whoever is willing to pay for it will work for whomever , safety and money are completely insecure for some people.
Free mercenaries have no cover from their comrades in arms, and no reliable logistical support. To put it bluntly, free mercenaries are cannon fodder among mercenaries, and these people die the fastest.
Generally speaking, freelance mercenaries are those who no mercenary regiments are willing to want, but anyone who wants to make a living under the gun and has special skills will find a job in some mercenary regiments, it's just a matter of how much money they earn Well, like Grolev, who used the machine gun to the perfection and was also a veteran who participated in bloody battles, the mercenary group would rush for it.
"Grolev, with your strength, why did you become a free mercenary?"
It was Bob who was talking, and he wanted to know why Grolev was a free mercenary.
Grolev looked sad, and sighed: "I used to be in a mercenary group, but one of my friends had some problems and he was fired from the mercenary group, so I left with him." Yes, just now, my friend died in battle."
Gao Yang and Bob gave Grolev another high look at once, they are willing to be a free mercenary for their friends, such a person is worthy of trust.
After Gao Yang was silent for a while, he said to Grolev, "You have entered Grozny twice, and that was a brutal street fight, right?"
Grolev nodded, and said: "The first time I went there was death. There were a total of 96 people in our company, 61 died and 8 were disabled. I suffered two gunshot wounds, but fortunately I didn't The second time was for revenge. The reason why I refused to retire was to wait for the day when I re-entered Grozny. I am glad that I waited for that war and came out alive again. In the second Chechen war, we even There were one hundred and thirteen people, twenty-one died, and I was slightly injured, but I finally came back alive."
Grolev paused, pointed to his head, and said: "My head was smashed by our company commander's head, and my head was covered with blood. After the battle, I happened to be seen by a big man." When we arrived, he thought I was brave, so he gave me a medal, and when the war was over, I immediately applied for retirement, but fortunately, I had a medal, and my application for retirement was quickly approved."
Both Gao Yang and Bob looked puzzled, and Bob said strangely: "Your head was smashed by your company commander's head? What do you mean?"
"Oh, I didn't say very clearly. Our company commander, a young captain, is very handsome. He is a top student in the military academy. I like him very much and admire him very much. He always takes the lead. It's a pity that we are breaking into a building. He was blown to pieces by a gun, his head flew tens of meters out of the window, and hit my head, his jaw disappeared, and his exposed upper gums gnawed on me, look It sounds scary, but it's really not that serious."
When Grolev was speaking, he pushed back the hair on his head so that Gao Yang and Bob could see the scar on his head, a crescent-shaped mark.
Gao Yang and Bob looked at each other, and couldn't help but gasped, but Grolev smiled and continued: "Our captain only has half of his head left, and his eyeballs are all popped out, but I still take a look. I recognized him, his hair was just cut, he shaved it into a heart shape, this guy took a picture before the war and sent it to his fiancée, if it wasn't for his hairstyle, I would still I really can't recognize it."
Gao Yang didn't want to ask about Grolev's experience, he just wanted to get some street fighting experience from Grolev.
But unexpectedly, a few words from Grolev made Gao Yang have a strong curiosity about Grolev and his experience.
"And then? Did you get your revenge? I mean, did you break into that building?"
"Of course, I put the company commander's head in my satchel, and then I stormed into the building with the rest of my brothers and shot at everyone. There was actually no one in the building, only four black men. Widows, do you know what a black widow is? It's those whores with bombs strapped to their bodies. We didn't give them a chance to detonate. We beat them all into sieves, and then, it didn't take long for the fight to end, yes A major general saw me when he was inspecting the battlefield, he thought I looked scary, and then he asked me how many bastards I killed, I said about twenty or thirty, I don’t know, maybe more, maybe not enough, And then I was given a medal, that's it."
Gao Yang only knew that the Russian army's battles in Chechnya, especially in Grozny, were very difficult and the casualty rate was very high, but he never learned about it in detail. Hearing Grolev's seemingly casual talk about the previous battles, although he was just a glimpse of the leopard, Its tragic degree is also evident.
Gao Yang thought for a while and said, "You have a lot of experience in street fighting, and I think the battle we are about to start must also be street fighting. Can you tell us what to pay attention to?"
Grolev pondered for a moment, and said: "The war here, how should I put it, if you give me a company, I can fight from one end of Benghazi to the other, well, let me just say that, compared with Grozni Wake up, this is heaven, all you need is to find a bunker and shoot, as long as your luck is not particularly bad, you will not die."
"Is it too exaggerated?"
"It's not an exaggeration at all. Before those ordinary people learned how to fight, the ordinary people I said included the opposition and government troops. As long as you are not facing mercenaries, you don't need to worry about anything. Compared with those bastards in Chechnya, All I can say is that the people here are sheep for the slaughter."
Gao Yang thought back on the battles he saw. It was indeed as Grolev said, they lacked the most basic military literacy. If the government army was at the same level, there would really be no pressure.
The most important thing is that the news from Morgan was that no mercenaries were found, and it seemed that the people who besieged Morgan were only government troops, and there were some armed forces who seemed to be fighters from the intelligence department.
Gao Yang, who was still feeling a little nervous, couldn't help but smiled happily. He felt a lot more relaxed. He shook his head and said to Grolev: "Well, I hope our enemies don't have mercenaries. It's strange. When will mercenaries become soldiers?" The main force of the war? Well, tell me about your company commander, what did you do with his head in the end?"
Grolev shrugged his shoulders, with a helpless expression on his face, and said: "The guys collecting the corpses are unreliable, it's just a head, they can't figure out the identity, they will definitely lose it, or they will just bury it in a cemetery, so I kept his head with me and gave it to his parents. His fiancée also saw it. Actually, she shouldn’t have seen it. His fiancée fainted immediately after seeing it, and cried after waking up. Look, forget it, I can't describe her look, anyway, I'm glad my wife doesn't have to cry on half of my head."
