Insufficient balance
Old men declare war, but it is the youth that must fight and die! — Herbert Hoover
They have taken on a number of contracts, especially in several small countries in Africa where they are making a big splash. The strength of the Kuroko mercenary corps is growing steadily, although there have been casualties in their missions, but these have been made up for by reinforcements and the arrival of top mercenaries from other regions. The national armies of Arocco and Bebetto have completed their training, but they are still somewhat wary of Kuroko, having such a wolf-like army stationed on their own soil has had some effect in intimidating potential enemies.
In comparison, the business in Mexico was a bit unsatisfactory. In the raid on the Mexican gang, more than 300 civilians were killed in the attack, especially in the second explosion after the police and fire departments arrived, almost sending the entire town's police and firefighters to the west...
Luckily, there was an old man with the surname Ben who was a well-known figure in this line of business. Anyway, since they couldn't find the attacker, everything was blamed on him. The US government's crackdown wasn't too severe yet, but more than 30 Mexican gang leaders were taken down at once, which couldn't help but make other gangs take aim at the Chinese gang that had the most conflicts with the Mexican gang. Zheng Lao Da's fax came flying in several times a day, basically just one sentence: "Brother, can you come and clean up this mess?"
Twelve people were brought along, and they sneaked into Mexico. As soon as they got off the boat, they shrank into a local luxury hotel. Zheng Lao Da, dressed like a pimp in sunglasses and a floral shirt, had been waiting at the hotel for a long time. When he saw them, a large stack of US dollars flew over, and then they immediately entered the main topic!
Three gangs, the Vietnamese gang, Thai gang and Japanese gang, joined forces to attack all territories controlled by Chinese gangs, especially in Mexico's drug trafficking channels which became a disaster area.
Every day is a full-scale battle, the funeral home's business has gone out of control, and most of the opponents are hired by local drug trafficking organizations. Those guys have been fighting with government troops and police for so long that they can just flash in at critical moments and then disappear. Three coconut groves controlled by Chinese gangs and several cotton bases were all messed up, this year's harvest is gone. The entire Mexican-Chinese gang has only a handful of people who can fight, and they can't withstand such turmoil!
After listening to Zheng Lao Da's grievances, Gui Long immediately sent out three relatively kind-looking men to gather information, especially to investigate the location of the three gangs' hideouts. The others stayed in the hotel and enjoyed the various services provided by Zheng Lao Da, without permission to go out unless there was a special situation. Anyway, the hotel was located in the Chinatown area, with at least hundreds of little brothers watching outside, so they could finally relax completely.
Three days in the hotel, all intelligence gathered that the Vietnamese gang's old nest was in a restaurant in the red-light district of the city. There were about 100 people on guard near the restaurant at any time, with the main weapons being CZ584 shotguns and a small number of MP5Ks. It is said that there are also one or two M-60 machine guns. The Thai gang mainly controls the betting and trading in underground boxing and red-light districts, with most of their main weapons being handguns, including some CZ584 shotguns. They belong to the weakest firepower branch, but due to the large number of Muay Thai fighters in the underground boxing gym, they have a strong fighting force themselves. The Japanese gang's main industry is the cocaine processing and manufacturing industry hidden in banana plantations, with more advanced weapons as well. It is said that they also purchased some anti-tank weapons and a large number of landmines from underground arms dealers, which were buried near the banana plantation. The core members of the three gangs are all around 300-400 people, while the total number of peripheral small-time henchmen exceeds several thousand, scattered in various cities.
After some discussion on the order of attack, all mercenaries suggested starting with the Vietnamese and Thai gangs because the headquarters of the two gangs were on the same street, making it convenient to take action and attracting police force into the city. This would also prevent the leaders of the other two gangs from hiding in case the Japanese gang was destroyed, which would be a permanent trouble.
The red-light district on weekends is the most lively in a week, with a constant stream of people looking for flowers and willows. The Thai boxing gym also arranges exciting matches on weekends, and there are not a few people betting, especially on this day almost all the gangsters gather here to hand over their weekly income and divide their share of money. Before 6 pm in the evening, the crowd is almost packed with the roads in this red-light district.
Among the crowds, Kaito and his subordinates disguised themselves as homeless people rummaging through trash, pushing a worn-out shopping cart forward. From the moment they entered the red-light district, Kaito noticed the burly men wandering back and forth among the crowd. Despite the sweltering heat, these men wore long undershirts with visible guns bulging at their waists. Behind the windows of the buildings on both sides, almost every certain distance away, there were one or two guys holding shotguns or MP5Ks observing the street activity. Kaito silently counted the number of opponents and firepower configurations, it seemed that there were indeed people who understood street defense giving advice to the Vietnamese gang and Thai gang. If they launched a forced attack, they would need more than 40 gunmen, and even then, they couldn't guarantee complete annihilation of the opponent.
Kiryu quietly asked SB with a hidden earpiece under his wig: "Are you in position?"
"What the hell is this crap? Several people have already stuffed money into my hands, and some guy even gave me half a leftover Mexican cornbread! Why do I have to pretend to be a vagrant? What's with that torrential rain?"
The sound of the heavy rain lazily responded: "I'm not better off than you, we're waiting at the entrance of two streets for you to finish your mess and then wipe our butts, blocking the police's way, giving you enough time to clean up all the targets. You think it's comfortable hiding on the top floor? It rained this morning, now the whole upstairs is flooded!"
The ghost dragon sidestepped to let a big Han pass by, who was rummaging through the trash can with his back hunched, occasionally stuffing some broken metal toys and old clothes into his shopping cart. As soon as the big Han turned his gaze away, the ghost dragon quickly threw a small package of C-4 into the bottom of the trash can and stumbled towards another trash can thirty meters away.
