410: Chapter 408: Jungle Phantom rcenary Group 410: Chapter 408: Jungle Phantom rcenary Group Gao Yang was indeed planning a night raid; attacking Teodulo’s camp with inferior firepower and personnel was essentially a death wish.
If Teodulo’s n were not complete idiots shooting at the sky, a firepower network of over a hundred n would definitely hold an absolute advantage.
Gao Yang and his team were not superheroes, getting hit by a bullet in a vital spot ant certain death.
Even the most elite troops facing such circumstances would only choose to execute a quick, accurate, and fierce assault, killing the target rapidly and then swiftly withdrawing.
Thus, a night raid was almost an inevitable choice.
For a night raid, it was best to approach the target as close as possible without alerting the enemy beforehand, which made silent or suppressed weapons very important.
In this mission, apart from Glolov’s machine gun, Gao Yang’s shotgun, and the sniper rifle lacking suppressors, all other long and short firearms were equipped with suppressors.
However, the quietest were Gao Yang and Li Jinfang’s pistols.
The noise reduction of a pistol is greatly affected by the type of bullet.
Gao Yang’s pistol and Li Jinfang’s Glock 21 both fired .45 ACP rounds, which are low-velocity, heavy bullets.
The bullet’s initial velocity out of the barrel is low, making it subsonic.
With a suppressor, the noise at the muzzle would be very minimal.
Other mbers were using 9mm Parabellum bullets, which are smaller in diater, and faster; even with the best suppressor, they wouldn’t be as quiet as the .45 ACP rounds.
The quietest guns were Gao Yang and Li Jinfang’s pistols, followed by their three MP5s.
The suppressors used on MP5s could be quite large, improving the suppression effect.
As for HK416, despite being fitted with suppressors, their noise would always be louder than that of MP5s due to the type of ammunition used.
If things went smoothly, the preferred weapons for the night raid would be the MP5 and the pistols.
If there was an option quieter than the MP5, it would be even better.
Gao Yang picked up the MP7A1, removed the magazine to inspect the bullets, and then said with interest, “I’m not very familiar with the bullets this gun uses.
How is the stopping power of this ammunition?”
Nate hesitated, then said solemnly, “Strictly speaking, the stopping power of 4.6 mm caliber bullets is good enough.
But what’s crucial is that the MP7 can use steel core armor-piercing bullets.
Against a protected target, it would definitely be better than Parabellum bullets.
In other words, against protected targets, the MP7A1 is much better suited than the MP5.”
Gao Yang smiled and said, “So you an Teodulo’s n wear bulletproof vests?”
Nate did not confirm nor deny, but essentially acknowledged Gao Yang’s question.
Gao Yang tactfully did not press further and waved the MP7A1 in his hand, smiling, “This gun performs not bad with a suppressor, I feel the noise is about the sa as the MP5.
If we compare them side by side, it would be easier to tell the difference.
Shall we try?”
Nate shook his head and said, “No need to test it.
The noise is about five decibels louder than when using Parabellum bullets in an MP5.
However, the rainforest has a strong sound-absorbing effect.
Shooting from thirty or forty ters away, it’s not easy for soone to hear the gunshot; at fifty ters away, you can’t hear it at all.
Of course, it would be different in a place with less vegetation.”
With any gun, it is impossible to have no sound at all just by attaching a suppressor.
At most, the blast noise can be reduced, but the sound of the bullet leaving the barrel and chanical operations cannot be eliminated.
The idea that a gun with a suppressor is inaudible just a few ters away, as shown in movies, is purely deceptive.
The most effective noise-reduced guns produce a sound equivalent to a person clapping their hands with full strength when fired, but not every gun can achieve this effect.
The majority of guns, even with suppressors installed, still have muzzle noises above 120 decibels.
An MP7A1 with a suppressor is unnoticeable from fifty ters away.
This level of suppression is quite good and sufficient.
“Unnoticeable from fifty ters away, it’s enough.
You’ve tested it, right?
Okay, thank you very much for being willing to swap this gun with ,” Gao Yang said, genuinely thanking Nate.
After a mont’s silence, Nate spoke softly, “Justin’s intelligence is accurate, but it’s incomplete.
He didn’t spend enough ti in Teodulo’s camp to learn everything.”
“Such as?”
“Teodulo’s camp is an advance camp, which is always more vigilant than regular camps and headquarters.
Also, the people in an advance camp are usually picked elites.
Moreover, it’s not only the Angel rcenary Group that cooperates with Teodulo.”
On hearing about another rcenary group, Gao Yang frowned imdiately and said, “Are you saying that there’s another rcenary group in Teodulo’s camp?”
Nate smiled and said solemnly, “When we attack Teodulo’s enemies, we always operate independently.
Normally, we strike as the spearhead while Teodulo follows with his n and another rcenary group.
There’s one group that has worked with Teodulo for a long ti.
I imagine that since Teodulo has co here from headquarters, that rcenary group will also have followed him.”
Nate’s information was too important.
Gao Yang, visibly anxious, said, “Can you tell the na of that rcenary group?”
“Phantom.
They are proficient in jungle warfare so people usually call them Jungle Phantom.
By the way, the leader of Jungle Phantom is very annoying, extrely so.”
After jotting down the na Phantom rcenary Group, Gao Yang asked, “How many people do they have?
What about their armant?
Also, have you had any conflicts with Phantom?”
Nate laughed and said, “Everyone in Angel rcenary Corps is crazy, but we still have our humanity.
People in Phantom rcenary Group, though, are all scum because their leader Chaleon only recruits human scum without any humanity.
Do you know why I am willing to help you?
Because I want you to take out as many from Phantom rcenary Group as you can.
Yes, we’ve had conflicts.
We killed a few of their n, and then I took out one of Chaleon’s eyeballs.”
Gao Yang spread his hands and said, “You don’t seem like soone with a good temper.
Why didn’t you just kill that Chaleon?”
“Because Chaleon begged for rcy, and also because Teodulo diated our conflict.
So, I spared Chaleon and his rcenary group, but now, I sowhat regret that decision as I’m finding it increasingly difficult to tolerate that Chaleon.
I was planning to take him out after this mission, but since you’re going to take down Teodulo, you might as well take care of Chaleon too.” (To be continued.
