Oh Mr General! - Chapter 185
In a secret military location in Country Y, a man who had an extremely dark expression was finalising plans on the mission. The man was Gray and currently, he looked like the reincarnation of the devil. It had been three days since Gray had gotten a wince of sleep. His mind was entirely focused on one objective. Save Sato. The negotiation made under Yroth’s terms had fell through in a second. There was no way Gray would trust that crazy person’s words. He much rather focus on the mission plan that he devised overnight.
The plan was to launch a simultaneous covert attack on the three locations. There would be three teams lead by Gray, Jun and Conquest’s co-leader, Kilroy, respectively. The priority of the mission was to rescue the civilian, Sato Takahashi from the drug cartel. Any potential enemies was shoot to kill. Leave no one alive, even the leader, Yroth will not be spared this time around.
“We will move out at 0200 hours. Dismiss.” Gray finished his briefing at midnight, leaving him and his team two hours to prepare for the raid.
“Be careful, Gray.” Melanie had dropped a call to check on Gray. Knowing how his son was, she warned her son as a worried mother.
“I cannot promise that mother. Sato is putting his life on the line. I can’t just sit back and do nothing.” Gray knew where his mother was coming from.
“I know, but still… You are my dearest son.”
“I will come back in one piece and Sato will be with me too.” He reassured.
“Okay.”
Gray hung up and started his own preparation. Warming himself up for potential combat, Gray entered a trance-like zone. His mind was entirely focus on one thing. Kill. Spare no one that stands in your way. Kill or be killed. This was the mentality the Major General had whenever he went on his special operations missions. It had eventually become a fight or flight response for him.
Looking around in the military camp’s weapons arsenal, the ex-active soldier chose his comfort pick. It was an MK24 Mod 0 SCAR, the assault rifle that had accompanied him for many years on the open field. Gray also chose a Karambit knife and a GLOCK pistol to be equipped as his side arms. There wasn’t anything else that Gray would carry on him, in addition to his bullet proof vest.
As he checked through his designated weapons for defects, Jun Kobe and his co-leader Kilroy were also doing their final checks. The three of them were definitely powerhouses when it came to infiltration tactics. However, due to their circ.u.mstances, they are required to split into three teams. Even with the additional manpower given by Alex Tobion, the family could not afford to deploy another Hors.e.m.e.n team to this mission. They were all busy and required absolute attention in their task.
“Let us set off now.” Gray spoke through his communication device.
“Copy.” The other two leaders of their teams replied.
At 0200 hrs sharp, the three teams set off in their respective directions. When the teams, arrived 2 kilometres away from the target location, the soldier alighted and proceeded covertly towards the final destination.
Gray and his team had to hike up a mountain as this was one of the prospective locations when tracked by the recognisance team. Moving slowly in the darkness, Gray’s team relied on the moonlight to trek upwards. They were not able to use their flashlights as it may signal to the enemy that they were approaching. In Gray’s heart, the man was honestly hoping that Sato’s location was not his. The mountain terrain was not the best place to launch an infiltration attack as the enemy had the height advantage. If they were not careful with their movements, they may get caught by the enemy. Regardless, Gray was dead-set on rescuing Sato. There was no doubt in that statement.
With slow, but quiet movements, the three teams were able to reach their potential bases in under two hours. By now, it was dead silent in the night and even the enemy guards at the bases were all feeling sleepy. Gray signalled to begin their attacks and so, the infiltration began.
“Bang, bang, bang!” With the sounds of gunshots echoing throughout the mountain, Gray and his team of soldiers swiftly made their way through the concrete three-story base. From the first floor and moving upwards, the veteran soldiers made good progress, making sure to check corners and potential hiding spots.
Eventually, the team had managed to kill onto the second floor. There seemed to be signs of Sato’s captivity as there was a room to the corner where heavy metal music was blaring. An empty chair that had dried blood stains on it made it pretty clear to Gray that Sato was here. The Major General frown at the sight, but quickly focused up again.
He made the choice to continue upwards cautiously as that was most likely where Yroth and Sato was. His intuition was spot on. When Gray made it to the top floor with his team, Yroth was standing out in the open with two guards standing beside him. From his surveillance camera, the guard’s guns were pointing at a lifeless body on the ground. That person was none other than Sato. The only thing that seperated Gray from the crazy drug cartel leader was a thick concrete wall.
“Oh how nice it is to finally see you again, Gray. How long has it been? Four, five years?” Yroth spoke to Gray who was hiding behind the wall. “You have no idea how much I miss seeing your face. That handsome face that will soon be lying dead on the ground.”
Gray did not speak up.
“You have exactly thirty seconds to make a decision. Either you come out and let me shoot that handsome face of yours. Or this boyfriend of yours will die in my hands. He had experienced a lot this past two days. I was even planning to send you some of his fingernails tomorrow morning, but your appearance foiled my plans. Anyways! Let us begin the countdown.”
Gray looked at his team and nodded to them knowingly. The Major General was going to appear in front of Yroth. There was nothing those soldier could do or say to change that fact. As the seconds tick by, Sato was seated on the ground n.a.k.e.d with dead lifeless eyes. Nothing entered his head at this point as the boy’s soul was out of this world.
When the time was almost up, Gray appeared from the corner. He had already placed his weapons down. As he raised his arms in the air as a sign of him surrendering, Yroth started laughing like a maniac.
“HAhahaahaha! Never would I have thought that this day would come. The day that the talented Gray Tobion would appear in front of me and willingly let me take his life away. All just for an exchange of his little boyfriend’s life! That..That is simply hilarious!” Yroths covered half of his face with his hand while he was laughing. His other hand held a pistol to which he soon pointed at Gray. “Goodbye Gray. Let me send you a gift too while I’m at it. Guards kill Sato.”
“NO!!!” As Gray shouted, both of his hands formed a fist. This was a signal. A very special signal that was only recognisable to a drone that was being piloted outside. The drone was one of the latest military technology that had a built in weaponry function.
Gray had positioned two of these drones outside during their infiltration into the enemy base and now, it was aiming through the open window at the heads of the enemy. Only Gray was omitted as he was recognised by the drone via facial recognition. With Gray forming two fists, the drones immediately fired it’s bullets at the enemy targets. Before Yroth and his gang could pull their trigger, a face filled with shock appeared on Yroth. The drug cartel leader felt powerless as his brain shut down from the bullet shot. In fact, each drone was installed with two guns and so, two of the guns were specially used to target Yroth.
With that, marked the end of Yroth’s tyranny.
