Mercenary's War-Chapter 2158 - 2135: Too Much Courage

No matter how ignorant, foolish, proud, stubborn, or unaware of the vastness of the world Mario is, he is still the patriarch of the Cicero Family, wielding endless resources and power, plus, Italy is his home ground.

Therefore, Gao Yang’s rescue operation couldn’t be too smooth or too easy.

In order to approach the castle where Mario was located without being detected, Glolov and his team couldn’t even use cars. They infiltrated bit by bit through the vineyards and farms near the castle during daylight before launching a sudden attack. However, they needed to be stealthy during the encounter, but could leave by car during the retreat.

Team Two, led by Big Mister, was supposed to rush in by car to support Team One after they engaged, and then cover their exit. However, they ended up in a firefight with a certain Italian military police unit, and it was quite intense. As a result, the original plan to pick up Team One and retreat by car had to change. Team Two had to hold off the police so that Glolov’s group could have time to leave after rescuing the person.

There was only one road from the hill leading to the castle. Ludwig, with his team, blocked it, forcing Glolov’s group to retreat on foot through the fields, unable to leave along the highway.

Li Jinfang shouted urgently, "Tyrannosaurus, have you retreated?"

"We’ve successfully retreated, how about your side?"

"The retreat path is blocked by military police. Big Mister is holding them off, and we’re withdrawing to the rendezvous point, over!"

After a brief conversation with Eileen, Li Jinfang approached Glolov and said, "The Boss has been taken away, and there are no pursuers behind us. Mario’s guards will certainly stay to protect him and dare not pursue."

Glolov nodded and shouted, "Full speed retreat, inform Big Mister that they can withdraw after holding for another three minutes."

After speaking, Glolov put away his gun and shouted at those carrying the wounded, "How are the injured?"

Andy He yelled, "Cockroach’s condition is bad, very bad. I need to perform emergency first aid immediately."

Albert also shouted, "Firearm’s situation is extremely dangerous! He needs emergency treatment on the spot."

Glolov stopped, took a few gasps, and shouted, "Perform first aid right here. The enemy won’t catch up quickly. Spread out; we must buy time for the first aid."

Half of James’ face was covered in blood and flesh, one arm dangling to the side, swaying with the movements of those carrying him. The situation was obviously dire because his arm bone was completely shattered, with a hole near the shoulder.

As for Jesse Lee, his situation was worse. He actively charged out as bait, paving a path with his flesh and blood. Blood was everywhere on his legs and arms, and his torso’s bulletproof vest was riddled with bullet marks.

Li Jinfang hurried to Jesse Lee’s side. He glanced at Albert, who was busy stopping Jesse Lee’s bleeding despite being drenched in blood. He originally wanted to ask about the situation but refrained after taking a look.

Jesse Lee lay flat on the ground, gritting his teeth and groaning intermittently in pain. Surprisingly, he was still conscious. Upon seeing Li Jinfang, his eyes darted around, looking at Li Jinfang as he said, "Buddy, do I look terrible?"

Li Jinfang forced a very faint smile and softly said, "No worries, buddy, you won’t die. Brave guys don’t die easily; only the cowards do."

Jesse Lee sighed, his face twisted in pain, and said through gritted teeth, "F**k, I was too brave this time."

Li Jinfang sincerely said, "You opened the path for us. Without you, it wouldn’t have been so easy to get in. You took the hit for me."

Jesse Lee’s face, covered in blood, looked mournful and stammered, "I just joined Satan and got injured. After healing for so long, missing so many operations, finally, there’s a big action again; I had to show myself, but I screwed it up. Buddy, I was too brave. I’m gonna die, f**k!"

Li Jinfang’s mouth moved, but he said nothing. Jesse Lee, with a mournful face, said, "I’m a drifter. Ram brought me in, supported me, and even gave me a high salary. I haven’t done a damn thing, and I already have over a million US dollars. I wanted to prove myself, got hot-headed, and rushed in. Now I’m about to hang, oh buddy, are you sawing my arm?"

Albert, holding a small saw, said quietly, "It’s shattered, can’t be saved, gotta saw it."

Jesse Lee’s voice sounded like he was about to cry. In a very weak voice, he said, "Can’t it stay? Even if it’s useless, at least it looks better. What if it heals? Buddy, don’t saw it, please?"

Albert quietly said, "Sawing is better for stopping the bleeding. Buddy, you ought to be fainting. Why are you still talking?"

Jesse Lee took a long breath, rolled his eyes, and said, "I feel I’m dying; I’d better seize the time to talk more. Alright, I’m fainting."

Jesse Lee rolled his eyes and completely passed out. Albert shook his head, taking a folding saw and quickly removing Jesse Lee’s left arm, tossing it aside. He said quietly, "Someone take it back."

Li Jinfang silently picked up Jesse’s arm, stuffed it into his backpack, and after tightening the straps, said to Albert, "Can he live?"

Albert shook his head, "Hard to say, it’s fifty-fifty. He’s lost too much blood, but there’s still some hope."

Li Jinfang nodded, walking to where Glolov was on guard with a machine gun.

Glolov said quietly, "How is it?"

Li Jinfang sighed, "Jesse Lee, shot in both arms and legs, right arm was sawed off, left leg looks unsalvageable. Whether he will survive is uncertain. James, James, his left arm is definitely done for. Although his face got scratched, he’s fine; he will live, but definitely disabled."

"And the others? They’re fine, right?"

"The others are alright, the suppression was effective. The result is already very good."

Glolov said despondently, "You notify Ivan, the plan went smoothly, the person has been rescued, inform him that the Italian Government has intervened, we were attacked by military police."

Li Jinfang nodded, taking out a satellite phone. At this time, Number Thirteen also took out a phone, quickly said after dialing, "Hello, the intel is correct, the rescue operation was very successful."

Number Thirteen finished the sentence and hung up. Li Jinfang said quietly, "Were you informing the cleaners?"

Number Thirteen quietly said, "Yes, I just informed Murphy. The rest is not their concern anymore."
