541: Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty-Seven: There is a Problem 541: Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty-Seven: There is a Problem During Frey’s wedding, three people enthusiastically started discussing their favorite guns.
Gao Yang had fewer concerns, as his rifle was custom-made for him.
Whether in terms of performance or suitability, it had beco the best and irreplaceable, so he would never consider changing his sniper rifle.
As for his pistol, it was also custom-made and not in need of replacent.
Where Gao Yang wanted to make a breakthrough was with shotguns, While the Benelli M4 was a good gun, after several conversations with Sirte, he felt there might be a better choice, so he planned to give Jack a visit and try out so options.
Excited, Gao Yang said, “When I was talking with Sirte, he ntioned a new series of FRAG-12 high-explosive shells that work really well.
They can be used in any 12-gauge shotgun, and I want to try them out this ti.”
Cui Bo also expressed his interest, “This ti fighting in the jungle really frustrated .
I didn’t bring my big sniper and using the HK416 as a substitute didn’t cut it.
I’m thinking of finding a backup gun, not a 7.62mm sniper rifle, but a 7.62mm semi-automatic rifle, either an HK417 or SCAR-H.
They both seem good, and I want to give them a try in case I encounter urban or jungle combat again.”
Li Jinfang, however, looked worried and said, “Honestly, though I’ve been using the HK416 for a while now and am quite familiar with it, I still feel it’s not the best fit for .
Changing guns ans a new adjustnt period, but the key issue is I developed my shooting habits using the Type 81 and Type 95, I don’t feel right using anything else.”
Gao Yang nodded and replied, “I’ve noticed.
In Libya, you could change magazines without stopping when shooting an AK47, but after you switched to other guns, you never used that technique.”
Li Jinfang shook his head, “The movents are totally different.
It works with AK family rifles, but with Arican guns, it’s just not possible to change magazines using the sa technique, and now I’m not sure which gun to use.”
Gao Yang laughed and suggested, “If not, just use the Type 97 then.
It uses the sa ammo and isn’t much different from the Type 95; it should be comfortable for you to use.”
Li Jinfang responded with a wry smile, “Now I’m actually more accustod to the trajectory of 5.56mm bullets, but the problem is, I don’t like bullpup rifles.
Ultimately, I prefer the Type 81, but then the ammunition is an issue, and also, the accuracy during rapid-fire isn’t as good as with small-caliber guns.
It’s botherso.”
Slapping his leg, Cui Bo suggested, “You could use the Type 03 rifle.”
“Where am I going to find 5.8mm bullets, and besides, I’ve never used the Type 03 before.
I might as well stick with the current HK416.”
After pondering for a mont, Gao Yang asked, “Do you know about the Type 87 rifle?”
Li Jinfang shook his head, “I don’t know, what kind of gun is that?”
Gao Yang explained seriously, “The Type 87 rifle was modified from the Type 81 to test 5.8mm bullets.
It was a transitional model for experintation that wasn’t broadly issued, but the Airborne Soldiers were equipped with it, which was later replaced by the Type 03.
I think if the Type 81 could be modified for 5.8mm caliber, surely it can be modified for 5.56mm caliber—we could have Jack customize a 5.56mm Type 81.”
Li Jinfang nodded, “That might work, but is it easy to modify?”
Gao Yang laughed heartily, “That’s simple.
Jack can build a new gun from scratch, so changing the barrel and caliber might be troubleso, but definitely not beyond him.
Let’s go to Portland tomorrow and just ask him to know for sure.”
Cui Bo chuckled, “This ti Tommy and Lucica are the focus, but I think their gun choice will be easy.
Speaking of Tommy, look at the guy, pretending he doesn’t want it, yet here he is having a great ti chatting.”
Tommy, typically unnoticeable, now sat in front of Vita in a suit, his every word and action fitting, as if he were a completely different person.
Li Jinfang said with a grin, “Who would have guessed Tommy could look so decent?
He’s truly versatile, adapting to any situation.
Brother Yang, look at Rabbit—even in a suit, he’s an eyesore.
Alas, there’s no helping ugliness.”
Cui Bo snapped back at Li Jinfang, “Take a look at yourself before you talk about , like a gorilla in a coat.
You think you look good?”
In fact, Cui Bo and Li Jinfang didn’t look bad in suits, actually quite handso, but their deanor and clothes were truly mismatched.
Accustod to military attire and boots, they indeed had trouble getting used to suits.
Military dress uniforms would have been more suitable, but sadly, as rcenaries, they would never wear military dress again unless they were deceiving themselves.
While they were bantering and laughing, Yelena gracefully approached Gao Yang, and seeing Yelena, Cui Bo and Li Jinfang stopped their bickering and automatically disappeared.
Looking at Yelena, Gao Yang smiled, “What, no need to accompany Ella anymore?”
Yelena laughed,”No need, that’s why I ca to keep you company.
Have you noticed how beautiful Ella looks in her wedding dress?”
Gao Yang gently kissed Yelena on the cheek and then whispered in her ear,”You’re much prettier than Ella.
When you wear your wedding dress, you will definitely look even more beautiful than her.”
Everyone likes to hear complints from their loved ones.
Yelena, smiling happily, hugged Gao Yang and said,”I’m trying my best to graduate early.
Then, I’ll marry you in the most beautiful wedding dress.”
After she spoke cheerfully, Yelena’s expression suddenly changed, and she said sadly,”You’re leaving tomorrow, yet I still have to go to school.
Oh, how I wish I could just drop out now and stop going.”
Seeing Gao Yang’s face beco stern, Yelena quickly said,”You know I’m just speaking off the top of my head.
Mom and Dad have pinned all their hopes on , and it was with great difficulty that you sent here.
I know that, and of course, I won’t let you down.
It’s just…
just that I can’t bear to be apart from you…”
Gao Yang smiled,”My dear, we’ll be able to be together all the ti soon enough.
Once we’re married, we can be together every day.”
Yelena sighed,”You’re in the most dangerous line of work, planning for our future.
My dear, as you know, I can find a very well-paid job after I graduate.
Maybe I’ll beco famous, a renowned musician.
I can support our family, so, I’m sorry.
I know this might make you angry, but you really don’t need to go to war anymore.
You and my father can just work in less dangerous jobs, especially since you both have enough money now.”
The very thing Gao Yang dreaded the most had happened again.
Yet, how could he be angry when the person who loved him was worried about his safety?
Realizing that he couldn’t imdiately leave the rcenary life shocked Gao Yang himself.
He rembered what Nate had once told him, that once he grew accustod to a lawless profession and couldn’t accept the constraints of normal society anymore, he would never be able to turn back and could only continue in the rcenary industry until his death.
Cold sweat began to form on Gao Yang’s forehead, as he realized he truly didn’t seem to want to live a normal life anymore.
In the beginning, Gao Yang fought for money.
He thought that if he had a lot of money, nobody would choose to remain a rcenary.
But now he understood that sotis war wasn’t about money; it was that you simply couldn’t stop.
Like Nate and his Angel rcenary Corps, they didn’t care about money at all; they just wanted to stay on the battlefield.
Seeing Gao Yang silent, Yelena grew afraid.
She said timidly,”I’m sorry, my dear.
If you’re angry, I apologize.
I won’t bring it up again.
I know you don’t like it, I’m sorry.”
After Yelena kissed him on the lips, Gao Yang said apologetically with a smile,”Baby, it’s not what you think.
I’m not angry.
I’m just…just thinking about the future, don’t worry.”
Yelena truly cared about Gao Yang.
She was very afraid that he would get angry.
After Gao Yang reassured her, Yelena’s anxious expression eased sowhat, but she no longer dared to bring up anything related to him.
Looking at the apprehensive Yelena, Gao Yang suddenly felt very guilty.
He embraced Yelena and said with a light chuckle,”Baby, let’s not talk about that issue anymore.
We made a deal, right?
Once you graduate, and I will propose to you, and then we’ll live a carefree life.
But for now, I have to fight for our future.
As a man, it would be embarrassing if your inco were higher than mine in the future.”
Yelena also laughed, but she couldn’t help saying,”But do we really need to care about who makes more money?”
Gao Yang said earnestly,”Of course, we have to.
I am a Huaxia man; our traditions compel to care about it.”
Yelena imdiately said,”Then I could just not work, or find a job that pays less.
Oh, I’m sorry, I spoke out of turn.
I will try my best to beco a musician.”
Gao Yang’s stern face relaxed again.
Jokingly, if Yelena gave up her music career to look after his pride, it would not only be unfair to herself but also to the years of hard work Mr.
and Mrs.
Glolov had put into nurturing Yelena.
Besides, Gao Yang was not the type of man who needed Yelena’s support.
If he wanted, when it ca to earning money, even if Yelena truly beca a great musician, she couldn’t surpass him.
After deliberately avoiding the unpleasant subject, Gao Yang and Yelena chatted very sweetly, completely oblivious to the passage of ti.
It was only after a while that Gao Yang noticed Tommy standing in front of him.
“What’s wrong?”
Upon hearing Gao Yang’s question, Tommy looked troubled and said,”There’s a problem, a big problem.” (To be continued.
