Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 384: Killing a Chicken with a Butcher Knife

Lu Shaohua was only thinking about revenge. If he was not afraid of heavy losses, he would have ordered a head-on attack on the Falcon's camp and started a fierce war. However, reason told Lu Shaohua not to do this. Even if he wanted to retaliate, he had to find a way to incur little loss. He himself was not very knowledgeable, so he could only leave the planning of the action to Chen Guobang and others.

As a result, Chen Guobang and his team did not disappoint Lu Shaohua. Xie Jianwei came up with a better solution, but it was too costly and took too long, so it was not very realistic and was not adopted.

After refuting one plan, Lu Shaohua felt much heavier in his heart. He was prepared that he would have to accept Xie Jianwei's plan in the end. However, he hadn't said it yet. Chen Guobang spoke at this time, which undoubtedly gave Lu Shaohua hope again.

"Brother, tell me what you're going to do." Lu Shaohua urged.

"Yeah." Chen Guobang nodded, without further hesitation, and said, "From the photos just now, the area occupied by the Falcon Mercenary Group is probably not smaller than our Tiger Roar. It is indeed a bit unrealistic to use artillery to attack such a large mercenary group."

Chen Guobang was not targeting Xie Jianwei, but was discussing the matter. After pointing out the loopholes in Xie Jianwei's plan, Chen Guobang did not stop, but took a breath and said, "To attack such a large area, you can only use weapons of mass destruction without losing personnel."

You don't have to be so clear when talking to smart people. Everyone present, including Lu Shaohua, is very intelligent. After Chen Guobang pointed out something, they all understood the meaning of the words at once.

Weapons of mass destruction? Does a cannon count? No, under normal circumstances, a cannon may be considered a weapon of mass destruction, but in a war between two large mercenary groups, it is simply not enough.

If cannons don't count, then what can be considered a weapon of mass destruction? In the Tiger Roar Mercenary Group, there are undoubtedly three types of weapons that can be called weapons of mass destruction: tanks, cannons, and bombers, but these three weapons are still not on the table.

There is no such thing in the Tiger Roar Mercenary Group? Then what Chen Guobang said would be nonsense. No, this is not nonsense. There is no such thing in the Tiger Roar Mercenary Group, but it does not mean that there is no such thing in the entire base. Don't forget that there is a secret base behind Tiger Roar.

The thing that is most in short supply in the secret base is military equipment, including airplanes, cannons, tanks, and some gun production. More importantly, there is also high-end equipment, such as missiles, rocket launchers, etc.

In Lu Shaohua's plan at the time, missiles would be deployed around the base as a defense, which would be the last line of defense to prevent the base from collapsing. The secret base had been built and put into use for some time, and the missile defense line had naturally been formed.

The formation of a defense line means that the base has the ability to manufacture missiles. With missiles, the so-called weapons of mass destruction must be it.

"Missile?" Lu Shaohua asked.

It is undeniable that this is what Chen Guobang meant. He nodded and said, "I can't think of any other way."

Chen Guobang paused before he finished speaking, and then continued his analysis. "If we use two missiles to attack, we can destroy most of the enemy's camp without using two missiles. It will take very little time, and the consumption will not be as serious as Jianwei said. However, the cost of two missiles is not cheap after all. If we really use them, it will be no different from burning money."

Chen Guobang didn't say anything more, that is, making a mountain out of a molehill. Indeed, using missiles to attack a mercenary group is indeed a bit of an exaggeration.

"Use missiles." Lu Shaohua had never thought of this method before. Now after Chen Guobang's reminder, Lu Shaohua secretly thought about it in his mind. It seems that the only weapon with great destructive power that Chen Guobang mentioned is missiles.

Chen Guobang nodded and said, "Using missiles, although the cost of a missile is not low, it is a bit of a waste of money, but this can avoid the loss of personnel and save time."

Just as Chen Guobang said, casualties can be avoided and time can be saved. It only takes a few seconds for a missile to be launched and reach the Falcon Camp ten kilometers away. Time is saved, not to mention casualties. After one missile is launched, the number of people who can survive at the Falcon Base is estimated to be reduced by half. In addition, Chen Guobang did not just want to use one missile, but two.

"Well, using missile attacks is a good choice." Lu Shaohua said lightly.

"Everything has its pros and cons. If we use missiles, it will turn into a large-scale war, and the incident will escalate. It's like killing a chicken with a sledgehammer." After a pause, Chen Guobang continued. "Not only will the incident escalate, but the cost will also be high. Two missiles, the cost of two missiles is not something that can be solved with just a few hundred thousand dollars."

"Killing a chicken with a butcher knife?" Lu Shaohua noticed that Chen Guobang used this phrase. As for the so-called escalation of the incident and the high cost, Lu Shaohua simply ignored it. For him, as long as he could get revenge and there was not much loss of life, he would not hesitate even if he spent $100 million to fight this war.

What's more, war is also a disguised form of income. Lu Shaohua doesn't believe that there are no valuable things in the Falcon Mercenary Group's camp.

Although Africa is a poor land, it has abundant resources. Apart from other things, diamonds are a specialty of Africa, and there are also high-value minerals such as gold mines. Lu Shaohua doesn't believe that Falcon has been in Africa for so long and there is no such collection in the camp.

"Just do as Big Brother said, use missiles, two." Lu Shaohua finally finalized the proposal. Decided to use missiles to attack. However, the decision does not mean that the matter has been completed. There are still many aspects that need to be coordinated. "Well, let's do this. Tomorrow, tomorrow morning, all the personnel of Hu Xiao will be sent to the Falcon Camp. Surround the camp first, and don't let anyone escape."

Lu Shaohua is not a kind person. Since he has decided to attack the Falcon Base, he must wipe out the entire base and not let any one go, even if they are minor characters that have nothing to do with this incident. All of them must be killed.

Shocked. Everyone present was shocked. They knew Lu Shaohua was ruthless, but they did not expect him to be so ruthless. Originally, Lu Shaohua's words of eradicating the roots only referred to the high-level officials of some bases, but they did not expect that Lu Shaohua's decision now was to eradicate the entire Falcon.

Lu Shaohua didn't care about Chen Guobang and the others' shock. His eyes showed an unprecedented murderous intent. After a pause, he continued, "Since the other party has arranged this attack, I don't mind making them pay the price, and the price is to annihilate them all."

Regardless of his standpoint, Lu Shaohua must kill Falcon. First, he was attacked and needed revenge. Second, it was to eliminate a potential enemy for Hu Xiao and prevent them from reviving.

Knowing Lu Shaohua's determination, no one said much. Considering that Chen Guobang almost lost his life in the attack, it didn't seem excessive to destroy the entire Falcon Mercenary Group.

Seeing that no one spoke, Lu Shaohua ignored them and continued, "Surrounding them is the first step, and the second step is to let the people in the secret base lock on the target and calculate the range to avoid accidentally hurting our own people."

The explosion of a missile affects a wide area, and Lu Shaohua did not want the explosion to accidentally injure people surrounding outside, as that would be more harm than good.

"Okay, I'll go over there and give the order right away." With that, Xie Jianwei was about to get up and go to the secret base to arrange Lu Shaohua's task, but Lu Shaohua hadn't said anything yet, so how could he leave so soon?

"Wait, don't be so anxious." Lu Shaohua stopped Xie Jianwei from leaving, and when he saw him sit down again, he continued, "The Falcon Base should also have a center. We won't bomb that center, we'll keep it. The location for the missile explosion will be where their personnel dormitories are and the mountain behind their camp."

According to the photos taken by Qian Qian, the Falcon Mercenary Group's camp was built on the edge of a mountain. The terrain was quite different, and the mountain behind them became their retreat route. Lu Shaohua chose two points for the missile explosion, one near the mountain to block their retreat route, and the other to eliminate most of their personnel.

"Oh?" Xie Jianwei was a little puzzled. He didn't know why Lu Shaohua wanted to let go of the center of their camp. Didn't Lu Shaohua want to wipe out the roots? Wouldn't blowing up their center eliminate most of their top leaders? From a strategic point of view, it would be beneficial to their side.

Not only Xie Jianwei was puzzled, but everyone else was puzzled as well. Even Chen Guobang, who knew Lu Shaohua best, showed a puzzled and questioning look.

"Haha!" Lu Shaohua laughed, but his laugh was a bit cunning, and he said lightly, "I don't believe that the Falcon Mercenary Group has no collection. Maybe their collection can offset the cost of the missiles we consumed."

Everyone understood. It turned out that Lu Shaohua wanted to recover the losses in the war. However, since they had not yet attacked their camp, they did not know whether they had any collections.

"Okay, I'll make the arrangements." Xie Jianwei said as he stood up. However, this time he did not walk out directly. Instead, he asked again, "When is the missile scheduled to be launched?"

"Hmm?" Lu Shaohua responded, but he didn't rush to confirm it. Instead, he pondered for a while before continuing. "The approximate time is tomorrow afternoon. As for when to launch, we'll talk about it then."

There are variables in many things, so Lu Shaohua did not dare to set a definite time, but gave Xie Jianwei an approximate time.

"Okay, I'll arrange it now. First, locate and calculate the range." Xie Jianwei said.

"Go ahead." Lu Shaohua waved his hand.

Xie Jianwei went out and went to the secret base to prepare, but this was not the end yet, there were still many things that needed to be arranged.
