King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer-Chapter 1630 - 1328: Upheaval in Rocinha
Manuel Katya, the second-in-command of the Colombian Kater Drug Cartel...
A battle in the Amazon Rainforest a few years ago greatly weakened the Kater family's strength. They had to relinquish many territories and retreat to their homeland, paying a large sum as protection money to secure the support of some politicians in the Colombian government to continue fighting against the government troops.
The once-mighty Colombian drug cartel still has a solid foundation!
Thanks to familial management, as long as the family members remain united, they can muster enough funds to grow strong again.
They not only invested in the Yemen battlefield but also trained and recruited a large number of formidable soldiers there.
Meanwhile, through their confrontation with Boss Joe, the Kater family unexpectedly got acquainted with people and organizations beyond their imagination.
They provided money, and in return, received political support, quickly opening up a larger chemical drug market.
In the past, the Colombian drug cartels relied on cocaine trade for profits. Yet, when the Kater family's cultivation areas and supply channels were seized by competitors, with some assistance, they found a more lucrative business...
The new 'Meth' and 'Ecstasy', which can be produced quickly at low cost with just a factory, quickly became the new key to wealth for the Kater Group.
Due to extremely low production costs and effects far superior to those produced by underground workshops, this new type of drug swiftly gained a sales route in Brazil.
In the favelas of Rio de Janeiro and the State of Sao Paulo, the emergence of Andrea Company quickly labeled meth factories, which are land-consuming and heavily polluting, as 'unwelcome' entities.
The costs for drug traffickers in both places were pushed higher, and they could clearly feel the squeeze.
So, when Manuel approached the Kater Group with his crew, the two sides instantly hit it off!
So, never believe that drug dealers actually care about their neighbors...
Their protection of people in the favelas is essentially using those civilians as a shield.
This line of work is for making money, filthy money, only made possible by some lousy governments giving the common folk no choice.
Now, the arrival of Andrea Company has given the people of Rocinha hope, and as the pressure increases, those drug dealers soon reveal their true colors.
Originally, they wouldn't have made a decision so quickly, but the high fees assigned by Boss Joe took away a large chunk of their profits...
This pain is worse than cutting their flesh!
While Manuel was practicing punches on the chest of a delivery gang boss, gunfire and explosions erupted near the storefronts at the peak and boundary of Rocinha...
Manuel, excited, continued hitting the delivery boss's chest, breaking the ribs above the heart, causing the body to stiffen like it had been electrocuted for a few seconds before it lost life. Only then did he excitedly stretch his body...
"We leave in 30 minutes, taking them to capture Andrea's headquarters..."
...
Joe Ga could hardly believe someone thought they could ambush him in Rocinha?
At the same time, he was dumbfounded by the actions of those delivery bosses within Rocinha...
Dozens of people, facing the threat of a curfew punishment, ran to the beach at night to have fun with the city chicks, just to prove they were different from the average poor folks, and ended up getting caught all at once.
Then, the enemies who landed mixed among the crowd, fooled the aerial unmanned blimp monitoring, and infiltrated Rocinha...
The person in charge, Anderson, was even dumber!
When those people were late, his first thought was to cover for them out of loyalty, only realizing something was amiss by 9 o'clock, so he sent people to look for them.
The laid-back nature of South Americans doesn't mesh at all with P·B, but as opponents, they are truly outrageous.
The drug gangs, initially ostracized from Andrea Company, only mocked people like Big Ricardo, never seriously understanding their work processes...
They only knew Andrea Company had a vast transportation network capable of elevating their business, yet never considered that if Manuel had the power to let the Brazilian government acquiesce to the Andrea Company network's transfer, why would he share it with them?
Most ridiculously, the enemies who kidnapped Big Ricardo and his people didn't even realize those gang bosses had Ding Ding installed on their phones.
They were too preoccupied with using those bosses' phones to mobilize their subordinates, thus ignoring that 'being late' at P·B is a severe 'crime' that draws suspicion.
This was a Dumb and Dumber type of farce, yet the consequences were incredibly severe!
The 'internal war' in Rocinha will give some Brazilian politicians room to breathe, and if too many people die, the operation where Andrea Company herded everyone together will provoke external skepticism.
In reality, nobody truly cares about the lives of drug dealers and people within the favelas...
This was a no-choice chain setup for Boss Joe, leaving him no choice but to quickly quell the 'internal war'.
At the same time, he would naturally suspect people within Brazil...
Should he impulsively take some drastic measures based on the logic of 'who benefits is the culprit,' his real opponents would have ample reason to mobilize more institutional resources to encircle P·B.
Boss Joe's real enemies not only don't care about drug dealers, they don't even care about the eventual fate of Brazil.
The more havoc Boss Joe causes in Brazil, the more advantageous it is for those people!
Because they can leverage political resources from a higher angle to infiltrate this Brazilian backyard to corner the mistaken Boss Joe.
As Boss Joe himself becomes too prominent, having a bunch of 'teammates' dragging him down...
You've already lost half!
So when the problem was realized, Bat Team A was sent down the mountain, where they would assist the training camp personnel in pinning the ambushing enemies in place with heavy weapons.
Meanwhile, Bat Team B went to the mountaintop to direct the training camp students to hold the mortar and Spearhead Missile positions.
Boss Joe didn't come to Brazil prepared for a war, but reality forced him to make a choice...
Rescue, quell chaos, reduce casualties, keep Rocinha functioning daily, and prevent any external interference, in order to protect the previous efforts.
Joe Ga leaned against a wall with his HK416, glanced up at a house about 50 meters ahead to the side, tapped Dorian on the shoulder in front of him, and said, "Let's go..."
Dorian pulled down his goggles, vigorously patted Ayu on the shoulder who was holding the shield...
Ayu charged a few steps forward, exposing himself to the enemy's firing range, with Dorian and Joe Ga following closely, firing first...
"Da-da, da-da..."
"Da-da-da-da..."
Two guys responsible for lookout on high ground were hit, collapsing softly to the ground...
The moment Joe Ga and the others fired, Rhino charged with a shield to the other side of the road, pulling Ronnie and the Medic Bird quickly forward like a train.
Once the enemies appeared in their sight, Rhino stopped, leaving the shooting to Ronnie and the Medic Bird.
All four assault soldiers, including Boss Joe, were using HK416s equipped with silencers. The sound of subsonic bullets wasn't noticeable at all during the day with a lot of white noise...
When Ronnie and the Medic Bird took care of the targets, Ayu quickly moved forward to continue covering... 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
The two teams advanced alternately like gears, rapidly approaching the narrow stairs leading to the target building.
Joe Ga and the others didn't deliberately conceal their actions because it was daytime; assuming the opponents were all deaf and blind was unrealistic...
When Rhino emerged with a shield on the narrow stairs, gunfire erupted from the second floor of the small building...
"Elephant, smoke grenade..."
When Rhino was forced back down a few steps by the gunfire, Dorian pulled out the grenade launcher, firing six smoke grenades in succession at the building...
As smoke rose, Rhino charged forward again with the shield...
This time, under inaccurate enemy fire, he reached the top of the stairs, single-handedly placing an RPK light machine gun on the shield notch and, with the help of the Talus system, commenced firing at the estimated positions of the enemies on the second floor...
As soon as Rhino opened fire, the enemies on the second floor were suppressed...
Ronnie and the Medic Bird followed, tapping Rhino on the shoulder, then moved sideways to cover, making room for Ayu to advance.
The fierce battle caused a commotion among the nearby enemy personnel...
Through the drone, Joe Ga saw about 50 gunmen from all directions converging on his location...
About half of them were local drug dealers' men, while the other half looked much more elite.
There wasn't much time to hesitate, Joe Ga shouted to Rhino and the others: "Rhino, suppress the second floor, Ronnie, Medic Bird, cover the main routes, guide the Spearhead Missiles to hit them..."
Having said this, Joe Ga tapped Dorian on the shoulder, shouted: "Let's go..."
Ayu, like a silent machine, charged to the side of the small building's main door, and when Dorian behind her indicated readiness with a flashbang...
The tall Ayu, holding the shield, kicked the door hard...
The iron door, like being struck by a battering ram, had its lock and hinges simultaneously smashed, and the over twenty-pound iron door crashed heavily into an unlucky guy's face behind it...
Immediately, Ayu's machine gun roared...
The PKM machine gun's 7.62mm bullets concentrated on the indoor staircase, killing several gunmen trying to descend to support.
Then, two flashbangs thrown inside as the door opened exploded...
"Bang-bang," two loud blasts with flashes, and the enemies inside suddenly felt dizzy...
Dorian and Joe Ga followed Ayu into the room, beginning to shoot at all active targets in the living room...
The traitor Yaqunta didn't even get a chance to speak to Boss Joe before getting several holes bored into him by the machine gun...
Manuel, dressed flamboyantly, fell to the ground with a shot to the knee...
The gunmen alongside the boss, firing chaotically, mostly hit empty space, then one by one were picked off by Joe Ga, the sharpshooter.
The team's actions were quick; upon confirming the captured leaders, Joe Ga pressed the communicator and shouted: "Medic Bird, gas the second floor..."
Saying this, Joe Ga put down his rifle, pulled out a handgun and shot Manuel's hand as he attempted to reach for a gun, then yelled to Ayu: "King Kong, block the stairs..."
Having finished, Joe Ga rushed to face the dazed Big Ricardo, grabbed his pig head and cursed: "Can't you just work honestly, damn it?"
