You must be joking.

181: Chapter One Hundred and Eighty: Exchange Hostages?

You must be joking.

As Torrey Gandyman issued orders to his subordinates, Gao Yang was also briefing Simon and the others on the latest developments.

“Team two, the agreement we’ve reached with the enemy leader is that you’ll put down your weapons and act as hostages, and then we’ll exchange hostages with each other.

The decision is in your hands; decide based on the situation.

We’ll now retreat first to the rooftop and wait for you there.”

Simon immediately said, “There’s no other way, we’ll put down our weapons and act as hostages.

Ram, if the situation turns sour, you guys retreat on your own.

There’s absolutely no need for us all to die here.”

Meanwhile, as Simon and Gao Yang spoke, Torrey Gandyman also loudly said, “No, we can’t exchange hostages on the rooftop.

I demand to go down and exchange in the lobby on the first floor.”

Gao Yang coldly said, “Your people outnumber us and have superior firepower.

To exchange hostages on the first floor would mean we’re all insane.

The exchange will take place on the rooftop; there’s no other choice unless you have another proposal that satisfies both parties.”

Torrey Gandyman couldn’t possibly come up with a proposal that would satisfy Gao Yang.

After a moment’s hesitation, he immediately yelled toward the first floor, “Bring their people up to the rooftop to exchange for me.”

“Toad and Little Fly, cover us; we’re coming up.”

“Roger that, you can come up now.”

After calling Li Jinfang on the radio, who had already retreated to the rooftop, and receiving Li’s response, Gao Yang cautiously led the way, with Glolov escorting Torrey Gandyman back to the fourth floor.

Although Gao Yang and his team hadn’t completed the

Almost at the same moment Glolov signaled, a bodyguard walking to the right flank noticed something at the corner of his eye.

He didn’t take a careful look at what it was, but as his flashlight illuminated it, he yelled “Spread out!” instinctively.

In the moment before a bodyguard behind shouted “Spread out!”, Gao Yang was throwing himself forward onto the ground, and as he dove, Li Jinfang’s right hand, which had been concealed behind him, moved.

The tail end of the bodyguard’s “Spread out!” had not finished when the object illuminated by the flashlight exploded.

It was an M18A1 directional anti-infantry mine, but it’s more widely known by another name, “Scottish Claymore.”

The Claymore directional mines, normally detonated with a tripwire or manually with a detonator, had been modified by Gao Yang’s team to include cameras and could be detonated remotely.

Whether there were cameras or not wasn’t important at that moment; what mattered was the ability to detonate remotely.

Two Claymore anti-infantry mines, placed on the flanks, detonated simultaneously.

The steel jets flew towards the bodyguards, who, focused on Torrey Gandyman and not paying close attention to the slightly forward flanks, had sealed their tragic fate.

The effect of a directional anti-infantry mine on unprotected soft targets was like a scythe through wheat; where the blade passed, no stalk could remain standing.

Under the high-speed impact of the steel jets, Torrey Gandyman’s bodyguards, arranged in an arc, fell in unison, like wheat before the scythe.

Almost at the same moment the Claymore directional mines exploded, the gatehouse behind the bodyguards also blew up.

Frey had placed all the remaining plastic explosives on the back side of the gatehouse.

The explosion thoroughly demolished the gatehouse, sealing off the access to the rooftop from the building and burying those inside the gatehouse under the rubble.
