Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger-Chapter 1020 - 954: Attack Preparation

Near a farm close to the border in the northwest direction of New Laredo...

Mountain Eagle drove a Cadillac Escalade with the lights off, using the night vision effect of tactical glasses, and quietly arrived at a grassland about 700 meters away from the farm.

Because the farm was nourished by a border river, the area was covered with waist-high wild grass, but there were no cattle or sheep typical of a farm, only various wild animals wandering through the pasture.

As Mountain Eagle approached in the car, a green laser was illuminated on a small hill nearby, shining into the Cadillac's driver's cabin, while a weak IR light lit up in a nearby bush.

Seeing Robbin, draped in a Ghillie Suit, emerging from the bushes like a scarecrow standing at the edge of the grass and waving towards him with a slightly eerie mechanical motion...

Mountain Eagle turned the steering wheel, parked the Cadillac by the roadside, then turned to look at Peggy in the passenger seat and said, "You guys drive yourselves out of here, following this road north for five kilometers will get you to the border river, where the DEA and border patrol people you contacted are waiting.

Notify your hired people to evacuate from here, establish a position three kilometers north and be ready to respond..."

Peggy was surprised and said, "You don't need our help?"

Mountain Eagle glanced at his phone, then shook his head and said, "The people you hired are no match for the ones inside the farm.

Leave this to me, a very strong team will arrive soon.

Don't worry, I will definitely rescue those kidnapped people and send them to the border river. You just wait there to receive them into the United States."

Peggy rolled down the car window and took a look at Robbin, who was clearly prepared...

Although she couldn't see Robbin's features clearly, his Ghillie Suit and the professional quality he naturally exuded made Peggy realize that Mountain Eagle had already made arrangements at the hotel.

Peggy wasn't a hesitant person. Facing Mountain Eagle's orders, she decisively nodded and said, "Then I'll wait for you near the border river. I've talked to the DEA and border patrol, if you encounter problems here, you must head towards the border, I can find a way to have them cover you."

Mountain Eagle nodded slightly. He was aware that Kobe Andrews probably had taken over the command of the border patrol with the Department of Homeland Security, but he still didn't refuse Peggy's goodwill and sincerely said, "Don't trust the border patrol too much; if Los Zetas can smuggle enriched uranium through this route, it means not everyone over there is law-abiding.

When you get there, be careful first, then keep a close watch on them. If anything seems off, don't say anything; wait until I've finished here."

Peggy was stunned for a moment and said, "What? If something seems wrong, shouldn't I inform you?"

Mountain Eagle glanced at the messages on his phone, smiled, and said, "Trust me, once you're near the border, you'll find your phone won't work.

The Department of Homeland Security has arrived at the border, and I have informed them of your situation.

They won't trouble you; if you have the capacity, observe the border patrol and record any suspicious individuals.

Leave the rest to us to handle!"

With that, Mountain Eagle stopped wasting words with Peggy, forcefully pushed open the car door, and gestured for Angie in the back seat to take over the driver's position...

He watched the Cadillac slowly drive away before approaching Robbin...

He eyed Robbin, who was like a scarecrow, and cheerfully patted him on the arm, then looked back at a small dirt hill a hundred meters away, waving towards it and speaking into the radio: "Galahad, can your back hold up?"

On the radio's other end, Galahad was clearly in state, responding with an emotionless tone: "I definitely can't handle the assault task, but I can provide long-range support with a sniper rifle without issues.

Mountain Eagle, I just observed, the people inside the farm are split into two groups...

One group is responsible for guarding the hostage barn; their actions are quite slack, with obvious traits of drug cartel gunmen.

The other group is skilled; they're guarding a small wooden cabin in the northwest corner of the farm. There's a tributary connecting the border river behind the cabin, with several smuggling speedboats docked at the pier.

If your target is them, then our manpower is too limited. If we can't quickly stun them and trap them, they might escape via either land or water.

What's your plan?"

Mountain Eagle clearly saw that the barn holding hostages and the location of those professional gunmen were far apart. If one side was attacked, the other side would easily be alerted, and the opponent would have several options to respond.

All tactics and choices by the attackers aim to reduce the opponent's 'choices,' forcing them to follow a predetermined direction.

When both sides are evenly matched, or the attackers are at a disadvantage in numbers, all so-called 'strategy' and 'tactics' related to the attack serve this purpose.

Galahad, an old gun from SBS, knew this well, so he needed to know what cards Mountain Eagle held to decide his position...

Mountain Eagle thought for a few seconds and chose a relatively secure approach...

He took Robbin and infiltrated the waist-high grass, moving towards the barn holding hostages while speaking into the radio quietly: "Kobe and the United States Department of Homeland Security will arrive in 30 minutes...

They will come in two Black Hawk helicopters, accompanied by two field agents from the Department of Homeland Security.

We will have superior firepower, so what we need to do is first take down the enemies around the barn to prevent the hostages inside from being caught up in the battle.

I need a clear attack route…"

Robbin, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke up after listening: "The fastest way is for us to attack separately from both sides...

I observed at least 8 people outside the barn; there should be others inside."

Solving the 8 outside won't be difficult; the tricky part is how to kill them inside before they can react."

With that, Robbin turned his oil-painted face towards Mountain Eagle, hesitated for a moment, and seriously said, "Or we could have one person draw attention from outside, while another sneaks into the barn."

Mountain Eagle looked at Robbin, thought for a moment, and decisively rejected his suggestion... 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"No, when Kobe and they arrive, chaos will break out inside the farm...

If I were those drug dealers, my first thought would be to resist or escape; whichever they choose, they have to leave the barn."

Then Mountain Eagle, watching Robbin suppressing his emotions, curiously said: "Buddy, no matter what we do, we've got to ensure our safety first."

Robbin had obviously been observing for a while. He led Mountain Eagle through a waist-high grass patch, then signaled for silence, slowed his steps, and with feet almost touching the ground, slid stealthily to the edge of the grass.

Mountain Eagle saw that Robbin led him off-route, but when Robbin brushed aside a patch of green grass revealing the scene inside, Mountain Eagle deeply furrowed his brow...
