Translator: 549690339
The things that a mercenary group could carry were usually very limited. This was because the missions they carried out would often have some battles behind enemy lines, as well as situations where they were isolated and helpless.
They needed to consider fighting without supplies, as well as fighting with a clear goal, fast advance and fast retreat, just like a sudden beheading. Therefore, they had to consider the weight of their weapons, the missions they were carrying, and what they needed to use on the battlefield.
They could not spend money on meaningless weapons that were not easy to use.
Yu Tian saw that there were even snipers in these mercenary groups, as well as individual anti-tank weapons that looked like iron fists.
Although these things were not expensive equipment, they provided very fierce firepower and lethality, and were very suitable for a battlefield like Tema.
For example, an anti-tank weapon like iron fist was especially suitable for Tema. The broken tanks here really could not withstand such a thing.
Although there were some shortcomings, such as a slightly poor range and accuracy, which would make the user very dangerous.
However, mercenaries were hard-working to begin with. When there was a need, they had to bite the bullet no matter how dangerous it was.
In general, the equipment these mercenary groups carried could be considered professional. In a battle on a big battlefield, these equipment could also be considered a very cost-effective configuration.
This proved that they had studied the issue of weapon configuration based on the current situation of this country.
Therefore, they were definitely not the kind of cannon fodder troops that only knew how to fight, nor were they the low-level mercenary groups that just randomly gathered a few people to go to the battlefield to earn some money.
Of course, from the perspective of weapons and equipment, they were not the kind of top-tier mercenary groups.
The equipment of the mercenary groups often represented their strength, and also represented their commission level.
The top-tier mercenary groups were definitely stronger than the special forces that were in active service in many countries. They were usually the elites of the special forces, and their weapons and equipment could also be obtained from the most advanced things.
For example, heavy bulletproof vests, high -quality military helmets and boots, all kinds of top-tier weapons, including custom-made weapons for people, as well as some strange new weapons.
There were also high-tech gadgets such as night vision, thermal imaging, and even drones, which rarely appeared in the hands of small teams.
These 70 to 80 percent of the weapons were equipped, and a simple loss would cost tens of millions of items.
Therefore, a top-tier mercenary group would start from a few million dollars for a mission. Special Missions also had special requirements.
The fees of the three mercenary groups that the East Dragon Company found were not low. Their fees were calculated on a daily basis.
The fees before the battle could be ignored. From the start of the battle, each person had to pay 3,000 dollars a day.
With more than a hundred people, it would cost more than 300,000 dollars a day. On the third day, one million dollars would be spent.
This fee didn’t seem high, but it was just the basics.
If the intensity of the battle was high and the losses were considerable, then the price would be several times higher.
This fee was also very reasonable because many small countries, especially those military dictators, would feel that it was worth it even if they spent hundreds of millions to hire troops to protect their regime when they were in big trouble.
Just like Yu Tian’s current situation, he had already spent hundreds of millions on general Abu’s weapons, equipment, and cash.
Now in the oasis, there was also that big warlord Hippo. If he wanted to get rid of general Abu, Yu Tian definitely wouldn ‘t allow it.
Even if he spent hundreds of millions, he still had to protect general Abu’s small business.
The leaders and vice leaders of the three mercenary groups came over to greet Yu Tian and get to know each other.
The names of these three mercenary groups were translated as “Loyal and reliable guardians”, “Bring Death and peace” , and “Crazy and calm hyenas”.
Not to mention these ridiculous names, they were basically a combination of the local dialect of black continent and the international language. Yu Tian temporarily referred to them as “Guards”, “Death god squad” , and “Hyenas Squad”.
Yu Tian planned to arrange these mercenaries to hide in a dozen ordinary houses in kannima.
These houses were the residences of the soldiers under General Abu. Their locations had been carefully selected by General Karo before they were temporarily requisitioned.
If a battle really took place in kannima, these mercenaries would be more reliable than the new recruits, which would also give general karo more confidence.
Yu Tian took advantage of the late night to send these mercenaries into Kannima and quietly settled them down.
The next morning, the sun rose as usual, and Kannima was as lively as usual.
No one knew that there were already more than a hundred fierce mercenaries hiding in the city, and no one knew that more than half of the army in the barracks had disappeared.
When the caravans of merchants passed by the barracks, they could still see that the new recruits in the barracks were undergoing intense training. There were also some unfinished buildings that were still being built.
Of course, there were also the tanks and armored vehicles that general Abu had bought recently. They were still “Racing” in the wilderness near the military camp.
At noon, a long caravan arrived at Kannima.
There were more than a dozen military vehicles with heavy machine guns, a few off-road vehicles, a few large trucks, and more than a hundred soldiers. The procession appeared vast and mighty.
These soldiers were not the cheap green military uniforms of general Abu’s subordinates, but were dressed in beautiful desert camouflage.
They were all wearing steel helmets, and it was obvious that they were high-grade imported goods. This made the Kandama army somewhat envious.
One had to know that the price of such a set of military equipment was even more expensive than the Aya in their hands.
Yu Tian was not short of money, but he had no intention of changing the military uniforms of general Abu’s soldiers for the time being.
That would attract too much attention.
In order to avoid misunderstandings, the convoy had already contacted General Abu before arriving in Khannima. General Abu had already arranged for soldiers to go and welcome them.
The convoy bypassed Khannima City and went straight to general Abu’s military camp.
Although General Abu’s military camp was simple and crude, the biggest advantage was that it was big enough and there were enough houses. They had enough vacant dormitories for these uninvited guests.
Those dormitories were originally prepared to expand the army. Now, they were more than enough to accommodate more than a hundred people.
Yu Tian and general caro stood behind the window of the office, quietly watching the convoy drive into the military camp. Then, they quietly watched the soldiers get off the vehicles and form a team before entering the barracks to rest.
“How is it?”
Yu Tian asked General Caro who was beside him.
General Caro knew what he was asking and calmly said, “It looks alright, but when it comes to fighting… it might just be like that.
Yu Tian’s interest was immediately piqued.. “You can see the fighting strength of this army just by looking at it?”
