1658 The Real Reason
Pavel is disgusting, the brigadier general is called Romeo Dallaire, but when he is called, he should be preceded by his surname, and he is called by his first name.
Romeo, not a common name, but not a rare one, I don't know if Juliet will be in Rwanda.
It's better not to be, this place is unlucky right now!
The leaders of each detachment here led the rapid deployment of manpower, and sniper teams were set up at all commanding heights in the hotel, closely monitoring several roads within 800 meters of the surrounding area.
If needed, the powerful Barrett M82A1 will let those Rwandans know what "anti-materiel power" is!
It's all two-person teams, and the observer uses the M21, which is much more effective against African soldiers who only know how to charge forward with AKs, than the more accurate bolt-action rifles.
As soon as I left the hotel building, many people ran to the parking lot, and the compartment of one of the trucks was opened.
Plates of shrunken, almost factory-stated, snake-bellied bladed barbed wire were thrown down, piled up on the luggage carts from the hotel, and pushed to the predetermined locations to unfold.
These barbed wire fences are really not cheap, and in order to reduce the difficulty of the contractors' defense as much as possible, they were airdropped last night!
It is very convenient to use, two people quickly pull and walk separately at both ends, and a long barbed wire fence that personnel can't pass through at all can be done: one by one, this is the fastest way to build a simple defense line.
Even if someone breaks through the outer wall, they will suddenly not know what to do when they are faced with this chilling barbed wire: the snake-bellied barbed wire with blades will be entangled in the tires of ordinary cars when they pass, let alone people!
Dwight-Bred led a squad to the gate, and the four American peacekeepers who had been standing guard at the gate watched in amazement.
The four GIs only had pistols, and when they saw the situation, they behaved like rabbits.
No, no, they are also white, not to mention armed to the teeth, and those tall individual communication devices have never been used by themselves.
Let's understand the situation first, it's likely to be my own people!
Besides, even if this group of people is not sent by the United Nations, it will not be the crazy people outside, then they can be counted as their own people.
But you have to figure out who it is, and the leading sergeant greeted loudly: "Hey, guys, which part of the army are you, which country?"
Obviously, it was not a person from the United Nations, and as soon as this "which part" was exited, he found out that there was a problem and quickly changed his words.
When Brad heard this, he said, "We are military contractors, understand?"
Don't understand?
If you don't understand, it's okay, just don't get in the way, it's not an enemy anyway.
By the way, let's let us take over the security and defense of this gate now, don't get in our way. ”
As he spoke, he asked the captain's own team leader to hurry up and set it up: this originally didn't even have a sandbag bunker, not even a barricade, at most it was an ornament.
Because of the simplicity, use bags of rice to build bunkers, make do with it first, and then go to load sandbags when you are free.
Rice, a pickup truck drove out of the parking lot and unloaded directly.
The four peacekeepers watched this scene stupidly, not knowing what to say.
The leader felt the need to find out more about the situation, and was about to speak, but Brad said to him again: "I am also an American, you can go inside for a drink, and your general will probably come later, and ask him if you have something."
We really don't have time to pay attention to you now, hundreds of thousands of crazy people are doing a massacre in the city outside, you can go to the lobby and see the video taken by the reporter last night, that's hell!
That's it, you are free. ”
The machine gun bunkers were quickly erected, and the machine gunners used Soviet-style RPK light machine guns with 75 rounds of drums, so that the ammunition could be unified during the operation.
The RPK can be used on drums and is equipped with a long 40-round magazine, which can be used interchangeably with other people's 30-round magazines if necessary, which is important in an environment away from logistical supplies.
Both sides of the conflict in Rwanda have prepared large quantities of Soviet-style light weapons, which could be used in the event of an emergency.
There are general-purpose machine guns, but those things are on the top floor of the hotel, and there are two groups, both of which are American, to be the fire support points of the snipers, and the ammunition between them is universal.
The bunkers are erected, there are still two, there are no dead ends on both sides of the road, and a military tire breaker has been opened outside the gate, and the most rudimentary gate defense is done.
There were three peacekeepers left who were supposed to be guards at the gate, and one of them went back to the hotel to inquire about the situation.
Seeing that the people entered the bunker, the one in his thirties who looked like a captain also returned to the hotel, and the three American soldiers felt that it was not a way to stand stupidly, so they simply returned to the hotel gate.
It's good not to make a mess, no one pays attention to these Canadians, anyway, looking at it now, they don't dare to make trouble if they have eight guts.
There's no need to make a mess.
At this time, a jeep painted by the United Nations peacekeeping force drove over quickly, and the driver's attention was quite concentrated, and he braked sharply, otherwise he would have to puncture a flat tire!
Seeing that Romeo had arrived, he put away the tire breaker and let him go.
Brigadier Dallaire in the car was a little flustered: not to mention the change of the gate post, it has become what it is now.
When I saw the appearance of the armed men at the door and the pattern on the armband, I felt a toothache!
The United Forces, a super-first-class international giant security group, is the most powerful military contractor company in the world, and the single-state military force of more than half of the world's countries is not worth mentioning in front of this freakish private armed company.
This is a mercenary group, or a mercenary group that is reasonable and legal in mainstream society in Europe and the United States, because they are "military contractors"!
Completely controlled the Gambia, in Botswana equivalent to the Second National Defense Force, as for the "first" that is ornamental.
And in Angola, the territory actually controlled by this company is not small, and the government of that country completely agrees with this strange situation: do you not agree?
It can't be defeated, and it doesn't want your regime, and there are a bunch of legal agreements signed with the government, and the international community doesn't bother to pay attention to this, and the U.S. government wears the same pants with the combined forces.
and Namibia, which has created a "land fast track" connecting Botswana and Angola, and I don't know if it was bought by that company, or it was given to the whole service, or both.
It's all painful to think about.
Before receiving the report of the hotel, Romeo Dallaire urgently contacted the United Nations, explaining that a massacre of Tutsi civilians was taking place in Kigali, and asked the United Nations to send troops to support it as soon as possible, otherwise the massacre would get out of control!
But the boss said that this could only be decided after urgent consultations, and a friend who had a good relationship told him clearly: it is unlikely!
It's messy enough, this will be such a force again, Dallaire feels a little sore in his brain.
When I entered the hotel, I didn't have time to look at the layout of the courtyard, so I hurriedly walked into the building.
After talking a lot of words, he gathered around to inquire about the Western guests who were anxious to leave the country, and then he saw the little old man that the lieutenant had said in his report.
The little old man sat in the café, and next to him sat an East Asian man in a combat uniform.
When he saw the other party's face clearly, Dallaire felt even more headache: it might be a coincidence that the person who originally thought of the United Forces was appearing, but now it seems that it is not, and he just hopes that Mr. Allen is not here.
Next to the big boss behind the scenes of the United Forces, the old and famous Mr. Guan is sitting there almost fully armed, in trouble!
Also, the tall little old man who dresses quite casually is not simple, and he has a kind look, which is not easy to deal with at first glance.
"I'm Romeo Dallaire, Commander of the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Rwanda, may I ask Mr. Kwan, how did your combined forces end up in Kigali?"
Dallaire intends to take the initiative and speak directly to gain the upper hand in momentum.
But the calculation was in vain.
Guan Xingquan didn't speak at all, and the little old man on the side said, "Hello, Mr. Dallaire."
The official phrase on this issue is, 'Our boss has taken a fancy to this hotel, and according to the intelligence we have received earlier, the situation here is about to deteriorate, and there will be a genocidal massacre, so we will protect the boss's property.'" ’
Additional gifts, the information comes from the Central Bureau, but there are not many Washington who don't want to participate in it, don't want to admit it, this Mr. Dallaire you should be able to understand.
If Mr. Dallaire is satisfied with this, I will need not give a second reason. ”
As he spoke, he pointed to a piece of printer paper on the table, and said to Dallaire, who was still standing: "This is a fax of the hotel property transfer agreement issued by Sabina Airlines in Belgium, you can see it if you need it."
Dallaire didn't take the piece of paper at all, but sat down in the third chair and asked, "What do you call it?"
"Pavel, you can call me Pavel, the rank before leaving the army was major general. ”
This is an official introduction, but it does not say which country.
Dallaire held out his hand, "It's a pleasure to meet you, General Pavel." ”
The two shook hands, and Pavel responded equally politely: "It's also a pleasure to know you, General Dallaire."
This is Mr. Kwan, and I think General Dallaire knows him. ”
This time, Guan Xingquan did not refuse the other party's outstretched hand, and shook it, "Hello." ”
A cold man, without sunglasses, and his eyes made Dallaire shudder.
Mr. Brigadier General avoided Guan Xingquan's gaze and asked Pavel again: "General Pavel"
"You can call me Pavel, and I'll call you Dallaire, how about it?"
"Absolutely.
Pavel, I would like to know what is the real intention of your combined forces? This is not only me, I think the whole world will want to know later. ”
In the face of Dallaire's words, Pavel still said with a smile: "It won't be the whole world, they are not interested."
The United States will not meddle in the affairs here, and Washington suffered a big loss in Somalia last year.
27,000 people, plus a huge amount of money and material aid, were all lost, with the lives of their own soldiers and a bunch of infamy for interfering in the internal affairs of other countries.
Even if the United Nations begged Washington, they wouldn't come.
Even if the Tutsis in Rwanda were exterminated, Washington would not admit that there was a genocidal massacre.
Britain and France will not come to join in the fun, nor will they want to know why.
Last year, there were 35,000 peacekeepers in Somalia, and nothing was accomplished, and Rwanda did not benefit from that.
If the United States does not come, Britain and France will not come, and the United States is not interested, and they are not interested in knowing why.
Besides, even if the British and French would come, they would at most send a small number of troops to pick up the expatriate.
Take control of the situation and stop the slaughter?
They don't have the ability to do this, and when they organize an army of tens of thousands and find a way to transport them, they should be killed.
You should have seen the outside on the way here, but you can't do anything, can you?
They won't come, they won't do anything when they come, you are peacekeepers, not peacemakers.
Unless it is deemed to be genocide"
The more Dallaire listened, the darker his face became, this Pavel did not take the Western world seriously.
"Don't count on the UN, we know you informed the UN about the situation here a little earlier, but the request for support was almost denied
Don't ask us how we know, we have friends there.
They won't give you any support, at least not for the time being.
Wait, in a few days, except for our boss's media group, any other Western media and leaders will only use 'massacre' and massacre, and absolutely not 'genocide' for what is happening.
Of course, our boss's media may only use 'massacre', he doesn't want to go against the whole Western society"
Genocide, which means "genocide" in English, is a word that is not used very often.
After the genocide of the Jews by the mustache in World War II, human society felt that some of the atrocities against humanity that occurred during World War II were too horrific and too evil, and that it was necessary to prevent such atrocities from happening again in the world no matter what!
Thus, in 1948, the United Nations adopted the first international convention on human rights: the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.
The meaning of this convention is that since the convention comes into force, any group or organization in the world that commits acts of genocide will be regarded as enemies of the entire human civilization, and some countries, especially the United States, will have the obligation to take immediate and strong action to stop the genocide!
No matter how events unfold in Rwanda, the Western world will not use the word 'genocide', because that would mean that it must immediately send troops to stop this anti-human act.
"The United States, Great Britain and France are not interested and do not want to participate in the cooperation, as for the other two great powers.
Even if the eastern side wants to contribute, it will not be able to send people to the hinterland of Africa, and the strength is limited, and how to evacuate the people from their own embassies will be a problem.
As for Russia, the troubles on the Chechen side are annoying enough. ”
Pavel stretched out his right hand, spread his fingers apart, and said, "Five, three don't come back, the other two can't come, no one cares about our true intentions."
Even if this is over, do you think our boss will care about other people's opinions?
He doesn't care what Britain and France think at all, Washington can just put it aside, the Russian president is his friend, not to mention the rest.
Therefore, the official answer at this stage is the most appropriate.
As for the future, our boss has a powerful enough propaganda machine, and everything is not a problem. ”
"Pavel, but I'd like to know your true intentions and reasons, and how far you'll get involved here?"
Facing the insistent Dallaire, Pavel said: "Now it is pure protection, to protect this hotel, and at the same time to provide a temporary refuge for those hapless Tutsis outside."
We are contractors, not war hyenas, principled.
Who knows?
As for the real reason, this is a bit unbelievable and unbelievable, but I can tell you.
As for believe it or not, I believe it anyway, our boss really did such a thing. ”
"What is it?"
Pavel looked as if he remembered something unbelievable, and then said: "A few days ago, after receiving intelligence predictions that a large-scale genocide might break out in Rwanda, with at least half a million deaths, our boss asked his daughter
Our little princess said that our boss should do something to save the poor children in Rwanda, and the little princess also donated her pocket money for us to pay for the army.
Isn't it incredible?
But that's just the way it is. ”
Romeo Dallaire has a sun-dog expression, and this "real reason" is really incredible!
But can it be said that this is 100%?
It was really possible for that crazy Alan to make such a move, let alone a child, and it was probably an excuse for him to make up his mind.
"Why do you do that?
Rich people show noble, superhuman quirks?
An outbreak of justice?
Neuropathy?
If you want to control the country again, you don't have to choose Rwanda!"
Dallaire feels like the world is not crazy!
The thought in his head was only instantaneous, but it was interrupted by a burst of gunfire from the north.
Dallaire stood up and habitually said, "What's the situation?"
Guan Xingquan listened to the voice in the headphones, and said rarely: "It's not a big deal, we want to build a large enough security zone here, and if we want to bring in the shopping mall in the north, let people go there and talk to the person in charge."
I didn't talk about it, but I found some women, Tutsi women, quite miserable.
If you're interested, you can check it out, but it doesn't matter if you're not, the poor women will be here soon. ”
After talking to Dallaire with a blank face, Guan Xingquan pressed the send button on the intercom and said in cold words: "I am Guan Xingquan, and now I order to expel any Rwandan government troops and thugs who dare to approach the security zone."
If you are attacked in any way, you will be killed!"
