Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 499 Active Exposure
Lake Elizabeth is not located on a major transportation route and is about 30 kilometers away from the nearest town, so the nearby mountains and forests are very quiet.

Except for the occasional campers and hikers, it is hard to see human beings most of the time.

In order to offer his ancestral home to the Mountain Eagle as its first stop, Camel spent all his savings.

Mountain eagles like this kind of mountain life very much. Except that there are no people, it is inconvenient to buy things and it is scary at night, this is an ideal vacation spot.

Of course, the prerequisite is that you can find entertainment activities that suit you. Otherwise, staying in a place with unstable signals or even unstable electricity for three days will make people start to feel miserable.

Shanying was not in a hurry. In addition to asking Dalia to pay attention to the situation outside from time to time, he put aside his worries and immersed himself in adjusting his own situation...

His physical condition has returned to its former peak, but he can clearly feel that this is not the limit.

And as his physical fitness and strength increased, his shooting level began to fluctuate slightly, which required training to balance it!

It's all about waiting anyway. Anxiously waiting or calmly waiting has no effect on the result, so Shanying dragged his training partner Tiffany to train every day.

I ran 10 kilometers to warm up in the morning, then competed in shooting skills, did a few sets of strength training with the butcher and the mailbox, practiced yoga with Daria, and ran another 10 kilometers before going to bed at night to help me sleep.

This amount of training is no pressure at all for the current Mountain Eagles, but it is a torture for a guy like Tiffany who has been obsessed with strength training for a long time and neglected or even despised aerobic training.

The whole world is learning from America, thinking that only soldiers with big muscles and big bodies look like soldiers. It has even formed a kind of soldier aesthetic, so that soldiers in many modern countries seem to be unable to move without vehicles.

It is true that big guys have certain advantages in strength and even explosive power, but only those who have actually fought in harsh environments know that in all non-systematic wars, endurance on the battlefield is the core quality of a soldier.

Tiffany felt both pain and shame...

Because when I run, I run with empty hands, while my boss will carry a 30-kilogram weight.

When shooting, you can calm down, and the boss will do burpees to stimulate your heart and lungs before shooting.

What irritated Tiffany the most was that she was not as flexible as her boss. When she was doing yoga with Daria, she couldn't complete many movements, but her boss was able to do it with ease.

The extensive strength training in the past few years has caused her to lose many of her strengths, which were reflected in the past two days.

For Tiffany, it is not shameful to be completely suppressed in physical fitness and strength by a freak like her boss, and no one in the team can compare with the boss in this regard.

However, he was also lagging behind in terms of shooting skills, flexibility, concentration and reaction speed, which was unacceptable to the competitive Tiffany.

She felt that she was better than everyone else in the team, but most of the time she felt very useless...

When the boss is the core of the battle, the pigeon has better sniping ability than the boss, the mailbox has more skilled suppression ability than the boss, the butcher is more focused than the boss, the pirate is proficient in driving various vehicles and can even act as a demolition hand...

Dalia, who looks like a vase, can do everything and provide enough emotional value. This kind of beauty can give everyone motivation just by shouting "Come on!".

Unable to find a location, this is the problem Tiffany is facing at this stage, so her mood has become increasingly depressed over the past few days and she even began to doubt herself.

Shanying could clearly sense Tiffany's problem, but he said nothing and just kept waiting for her...

Rebuilding self-confidence is a process, which requires her to be able to feel the changes in herself, and then after feeling the benefits, the reconstruction will be completed naturally.

For such a strong woman, until she feels the real benefits, all the words others say are just nonsense!
Shanying and his companions stayed in the mountain cabin for a week. From the third day, Shanying's mood began to gradually improve, and as time went by, his mood became better and better...

In a week, violent conflicts broke out in the Los Angeles underground world, affecting Haitian gangs, Salvadoran gangs, Mexican gangs...

The two elusive teams continued to put pressure on the gangs through attacks and sabotage, and on the fifth day they finally reached a critical point...

Other gangs that covet these gang territories and businesses begin to move...

How many steps are involved in cracking down on a gang of some size?

The first step is to destroy their money vault...

Gangs that rely on drug trafficking as their primary source of money generally have a lot of cash, which cannot be deposited into the bank in a short period of time. At the same time, this money is the source of salary for gang members.

Destroying the vault can temporarily cut off the gang's funding chain, putting them in trouble.

The second step is to destroy the production factors on which they depend for survival...

For gangs, bars, nightclubs, drug warehouses, and cargo warehouses are all production factors that they use to transform their profits.

In the movies, when gangs fight, they always smash up each other's places, and when police and gangsters fight, the police always raid the gangs' places.

But in reality, if you want to inflict heavy damage on the gangs, you not only have to smash their places, but also destroy their goods.

Drugs, alcohol, pirated goods, stolen goods, smuggled goods, these sources of huge profits for gangs all need to be stored in the warehouse area.

By destroying the money vault and then these things, a gang can be completely paralyzed!
After completing the first two steps, the third step of killing people will have practical significance. Otherwise, if the opponent's foundation is still there, the newly elected leader who wants to maintain his position will most likely choose to retaliate, and then the matter will never end.

Blood Fox is a real veteran. Although he gets into trouble when he encounters the problem of Arctic Fox, in fact, this old guy is meticulous and ruthless. He knows how to destroy a gang and how to make a region fall into chaos...

The Arctic Foxes were responsible for attacking the treasury, the Knights of the Round Table were responsible for attacking the warehouse, and in just five days, the gangs in South Los Angeles began to feel insecure... More than 5 million U.S. dollars in cash were either burned or directly scattered on the streets of the slums.

And a rumor began to appear in the market...

"These gangsters attacked a man they couldn't afford to offend for money!"

The Haitian gang didn't care about the rumors at this time. Their members had violent conflicts with the local poor in order to recover the money. They didn't get much money back, but lost all their people.

Then Blood Fox saw his opportunity. He asked Arctic Fox to spread the cash stolen from Mexican drug dealers into the Salvadoran gang's territory, and then spread the Salvadoran gang's cash into the Haitian gang's territory.

At the beginning, the Mexican gangs relied on their greater power and financial resources to demand that the Salvadoran gangs take the money back from the poor.

The Salvadoran gangs did so, and then when they got into trouble, they wanted to follow the Mexican gangs’ example and ask the Haitian gangs to repeat it…

At this time, the Haitian gangs, who had already felt the pressure from the local poor, sternly rejected the demands of the Salvadoran gangs.

At this time, the Salvadoran gangs realized that this was not going to work, so they seized the stolen money from the Mexican gangs to supplement their cash flow...

While dragging the Mexicans, this gang sent people to try to enter the Haitian gang's territory to ask for money. Then Pandora's box was opened, and the entire South Los Angeles began to surge with undercurrents.

Gang conflicts, conflicts between gangs and the poor, regional conflicts, ethnic conflicts, all kinds of conflicts mixed together have plunged the southern Los Angeles area into deep chaos.

South Los Angeles is already very poor, and the police force in each major community is insufficient, so police forces had to be transferred from other places, and the famous Los Angeles SWAT was also transferred there to suppress the situation.

At this time, two mysterious teams were dispatched again and destroyed several important material warehouses of the Mexican gang, the Salvadoran gang, and the Haitian gang...

Drugs, arms and smuggled goods were burned.

The situation can no longer be controlled at this time!

Because most of the three gangs' cash and means of production were destroyed, they began to become divided first. What was more serious was that other gangs began to take action to fill the vacant market.

After dinner on the eighth day, Shanying watched the old-fashioned TV in the cabin, the host's expression on the evening news was as if he had lost his parents, and the burning streets in the background. He happily picked up a bottle of beer and took a sip...

"That's about it. If the FBI doesn't find us tomorrow, we'll leave here and head to a safe house in downtown Los Angeles."

Shanying said to Tiffany with a smile: "You can take your phone out of the aluminum foil and turn it on..."

Tiffany, who was in a low mood, weakly took out her cell phone from the backpack at her feet, opened it and said, "What do you want to do? Voluntarily expose your location to the FBI?"

Shanying smiled and shook his head and said, "Of course not, if they really wanted to find me, they should have come to my door a few days ago.

The FBI guy in charge of this case is very smart this time, and he's waiting for me to give them a signal."

Tiffany said weakly, "You're saying that the FBI agents who are following us to clean up the mess are trustworthy.

But you have to know that there are many people and factions within the FBI. What I did was equivalent to actively exposing my location to the FBI's technical department.

If our enemy is really powerful, then no one can guarantee that our location will not be leaked to others."

Shanying was amused by Tiffany's weak look, and he said with a smile: "You think so, and the FBI following us must think so too.

So far, they have been very smart. Now we have to see whether they are really smart and willing to cooperate with us sincerely. "

Even if Tiffany was stupid, she realized that Shanying was doing the final test...

Expose your location and see if any enemies come looking for you, and also see how the FBI following behind react.

If they were really smart, they should abide by the contract signed by both parties and use the mountain eagle as bait to arrest or kill those who attacked him.

If an enemy really comes to our door at that time, the FBI can launch an attack from the rear and then surround the enemy.

If no enemies come knocking on the door, it means that the FBI's internal intelligence control is very good, and Mountain Eagle can expand the scope and strength of trust a little bit.

This is a twist that Tiffany has never seen in the past 28 years...

The feeling of being crushed by others made her even more depressed...

Shanying looked at Tiffany's expression. He couldn't really watch this girl fall into trouble, so he smiled and said, "Don't sleep tonight. I want you to think about what we should do if we are besieged?
Give me a defense plan, personnel division, evacuation plan and route, I want all of them...

You grew up here, so you are more familiar with this place than us outsiders."

Shanying looked at Tiffany, who was surprised, and said with a smile: "Captain Tiffany, our enemies may arrive at any time...

Our safety now depends on you!"
