Reborn Tycoon: Hong Kong's Entertainment Godfather
Chapter 157 Joins the British side and becomes the biggest profiteer!
Upon receiving this answer, Gu Yuhan nodded, "That's good, just wait and see!" Overthrowing the Morgan Group, especially at its peak, is such an unrealistic idea!
However, Gu Yuhan did not think that Little John was being delusional. A thousand-mile dike can be destroyed by an ant hole. There is never anything impossible in this world!
He wouldn't mind helping John Jr. by secretly digging a few anthills in the Morgan Group's massive dam. Just imagining the dam being destroyed would be quite a sight.
John left, but Miller arrived, bringing with him the intelligence gathered by the girl from the spiderweb!
Miller has already screened this intelligence in various ways and divided it into three levels according to its importance, which is also Gu Yuhan's requirement!
The most important aspect was the preparations both sides made for this war.
"Boss, according to the intelligence, the chances of Dai Ying winning are higher!" Miller said, expressing his thoughts.
Indeed, judging solely from the military strength of both sides, a victory for the British was almost a foregone conclusion. In fact, even without this intelligence, Gu Yuhan already knew the outcome of the war.
He had Spiderweb gather this intelligence mainly to determine what kind of actions the mercenaries would take! If helping Dai Ying would maximize his reputation, he would definitely choose Dai Ying, and vice versa, so it had nothing to do with who won or lost!
Gu Yuhan analyzed the intelligence while simultaneously adjusting the strategy in his mind! Ultimately, he decided to have Shenmu join Daiying's winning side!
Based on the intelligence, the other side doesn't seem to have any strengths, so helping the victor is far more valuable than helping the defeated side!
"Alright, Miller, you've all been working hard lately." Gu Yuhan put the intelligence reports together on the table and tossed them around. "Contact the girls currently working in Daiying and see if they know of any ways to get Daiying to hire Shenmu."
Miller looked troubled. The task sounded simple, but it was extremely difficult to accomplish. The British military was already very strong, so they had no need to hire other forces. On the contrary, it was more likely that they would hire the enemy.
Seeing that Miller did not respond, Gu Yuhan could roughly guess what he was thinking.
"Don't worry, I know this mission is difficult, so I've made preparations in advance. I think even if Dai Ying has the advantage, she probably doesn't want any unexpected situations to happen, right? For example... letting a super-strong force join the enemy and increase their strength." Gu Yuhan said calmly.
Miller was somewhat confused, but that was the truth of the matter. However, he himself was a mercenary and one of the high-ranking mercenaries in the Divine Tomb. How could he not understand the strength of these guys?
Normally, this group of mercenaries would indeed be a formidable force, but on the battlefield, they would show no advantage whatsoever, so how could they possibly be taken seriously?
Gu Yuhan didn't want to explain, believing that seeing is believing, so he took Miller to the vast open space outside the headquarters!
This was Yu Chenghui's request, because his training methods simply couldn't be implemented at the headquarters' training grounds! "Thump! Thump! Thump!" Miller heard a strange sound when he was still some distance away.
He couldn't help but ask, "Boss, what's that sound? Is it some kind of artillery drill? But it doesn't quite sound like it!"
"Artillery fire? You have quite the imagination!" Gu Yuhan joked. "That's the sound of war drums. No need to ask so many questions, you'll find out soon enough!"
Miller grew increasingly curious and followed Gu Yuhan to a dusty open space. There he saw hundreds of mercenaries, shirtless, lined up in a row, their bodies filthy, many even covered in blood! What horrified Miller was that the mercenaries seemed completely unconcerned about their condition. Each of them gritted their teeth, their eyes sharp as hungry wolves, glaring fiercely at the mannequins more than ten meters away!
"Thump!"
As the sound of drums approached, Miller looked in the direction of the sound and immediately saw Yu Chenghui, whom he had met once before, standing on a high platform, beating a huge round drum with a diameter of about two meters.
Moreover, accompanied by the sound of drums, the mercenaries rushed towards the dummy as if they had gone mad, showing a strong determination to perish together with the dummy!
Although he didn't know what they were doing, Miller was still shocked by their aura, as if the mercenaries were rushing towards him, which made him subconsciously take defensive actions.
"Miller, do you think three hundred warriors ready to die alongside the enemy, plus two hundred long-range strikers wielding Barrett rifles, deserve the attention of the British?"
Miller was completely stunned. He never dreamed that the Tomb of the Gods would change so much in just two or three months since he left!
Putting aside the changes in the headquarters environment, these mercenaries seemed to have undergone a complete transformation. If it weren't for seeing many familiar faces, Miller would have thought that it was a completely different group of people!
"Boss, how did they become like this?" Miller couldn't help but ask. "Robertson put in a lot of effort just to make sure they could train properly."
Gu Yuhan smiled. He didn't really know how to answer this question. He had already handed over the training to Yu Chenghui, and with the assistance of Robertson and Wan Qiqianchen, he only needed to see the results!
"You don't need to worry about that. You just need to answer me: in this era that relies on firearms, are these warriors who are equally fearless even when they are unarmed worth Ying's attention?" Gu Yuhan asked.
Miller nodded solemnly. No general could refuse a fearless taxi driver. He himself had teetered between life and death several times and knew very well what kind of powerful force a person could unleash if they were not even afraid of death!
And let's not forget, besides these three hundred warriors, there are more than two hundred others undergoing training under Pang Youcai's leadership.
They are currently undergoing training under Pang Youcai's leadership, focusing on how to perfectly master the Barrett sniper rifle and improve their sniping skills! Since the US military placed the order, they have indeed implemented the equipment immediately as promised. It is precisely because of its outstanding performance in several operations that the Barrett has made a name for itself in the US, leading to more and more orders! However, this is still limited to the US military and has not yet successfully opened up overseas markets! Therefore, Gu Yuhan plans to use this opportunity to establish the reputation of the Divine Tomb and simultaneously allow the Barrett, this soul-reaping weapon on the battlefield, to step onto a broader stage!
"Boss, I believe that Dai Ying will not refuse such a strong force. Although this force cannot determine the final outcome, it will undoubtedly tilt the scales of victory slightly!" Miller gave his answer.
Many people believe that modern warfare no longer relies solely on manpower.
Human beings appear far too insignificant in the face of various weapons of war capable of causing massive destruction, such as fighter jets, bombers, warships, aircraft carriers, tanks, and missiles.
The reality is quite different. While these weapons of war have indeed changed the mode of warfare, the principle of "people-centeredness" applies not only to people's livelihoods but also to warfare!
It is precisely because those weapons of war are destructive enough that they are subject to greater constraints!
Without instructions and orders, these things are just scrap metal. In other words, what truly determines the value of these weapons of war is people!
Imagine what would happen if one side suddenly lost command during a fierce war.
Without a doubt, take the two sides in the Falklands War as an example. If one side had a complete command system and the other side could only fight on their own, the result would be self-evident!
Gu Yuhan's initial goal was not to have the mercenaries face the battlefield directly, but to carry out a special mission, commonly known as a decapitation operation!
This "decapitation" doesn't refer to killing the enemy's top general, which is obviously impossible. So, to be precise, he intends for the mercenaries to use every means possible to destroy the enemy's command system, that is, the central roles that transmit orders.
No matter how many people you kill on the battlefield, it's not as great as accomplishing this task. As long as you achieve your goal, with a little maneuvering, the name of the Divine Tomb can easily resound throughout the world!
Some people might think this idea sounds like a fantasy, but don't forget that Gu Yuhan currently holds a lot of classified information!
This even included some of the military deployments of both sides, all of which were obtained at the cost of the lives of the Spiderweb Girls! And more importantly, in the context of the 1980s, battlefield communication tools were far from being that advanced.
In the era before Gu Yuhan's rebirth, the highest-ranking general's orders could be transmitted to the execution terminal in the blink of an eye. But in this era, any order must be relayed through multiple layers of communication!
To give a simple example, if one side's entire team is wiped out, neither side's command headquarters can obtain this information immediately, which will have a huge impact on various tactics and strategies!
Gu Yuhan, however, was prepared. Although he intended to have the mercenaries of the Divine Tomb join one side, he did not want to obey their orders, but rather wanted to gain the right to fight independently!
In other words, the mercenaries are not subject to any constraints. Although they represent one side, they are acting entirely on Gu Yuhan's orders!
"Miller, besides having Daiying hire the Tomb God, I have another request: the right to act independently!" Gu Yuhan told Miller his thoughts, adding, "But you don't need to worry about that. You just need to find a way to get Daiying to propose hiring. I'll discuss the specifics with their people myself later!"
Miller and the Spiderweb girls couldn't do this; it was something that needed to be decided by Ying to hire the God of the Tomb, and then implemented in detail during the negotiations between the two parties.
Miller increasingly felt that his boss was meticulous, even to a terrifying degree! To outsiders, Gu Yuhan was just a businessman, and Miller initially thought so too. But as he got to know Gu Yuhan better, Miller realized he was wrong!
Because his boss is not only a very competent businessman, but also capable of devising all sorts of unexpected strategies to achieve his goals!
Many of these strategies have already gone beyond the scope of business dealings, and now he's even using war! Miller wondered, if Gu Yuhan were not a businessman, but a military strategist, would the country he represented have the capital to dominate the world?
Gu Yuhan had no idea that Miller had thought so much. He thought about it seriously for a moment and then said, "Miller, I have a way to get Dai Ying to notice the Divine Tomb. I'll explain it briefly, and you can see if you can implement it."
Two days later, Miller returned to the Tomb of the Gods once again, bringing good news!
"Boss, we have results! As per your plan, Dai Ying has become interested in the Tomb of the Gods and will be sending someone over soon to discuss matters!"
Miller hadn't expected things to go so smoothly. He had simply followed the ideas provided by Gu Yuhan, and the result was better than he had imagined!
Actually, it wasn't complicated at all. Gu Yuhan simply had the girls lurking in Dai Ying's spider web mention the Divine Tomb by chance.
Furthermore, by using fabricated relationships, it is revealed that the Tomb of the Gods is a company with extremely strong military power, which is undoubtedly a great temptation for Dai Ying, who is single-mindedly trying to take back Madoka Island!
Dai Ying has spared no effort in order to win this battle! Although intelligence suggests that Dai Ying has a higher chance of winning, the opponent is not so easy to deal with! Moreover, Gu Yuhan knows better than anyone that although it seems that Dai Ying has won this war, a military strategist once commented that Dai Ying's victory this time can be described as a "pyrrhic victory that is as bad as a defeat"!
There's no other explanation; as the name suggests, Daiying's victory was extremely difficult! This doesn't need to be deduced from the ending. At this moment, Daiying also knew how formidable their opponents were, so if there were an option that could increase their chances of winning, they would certainly accept it gladly!
Therefore, Gu Yuhan didn't actually need any deep strategies; providing an opportunity was enough! Although he knew that Dai Ying would send someone soon, Gu Yuhan didn't expect them to act so quickly! The next day at noon, just after Gu Yuhan finished lunch, Robertson came to report that someone wanted to see him, but the other party was unwilling to reveal their identity.
"Boss, there are twelve of them, and they don't seem to be any kind people. If they have any ill intentions, it could cause some trouble. Should we send someone else to talk to them and test their intentions?" Robertson was a little worried because he could tell that they were not ordinary people.
