For this operation, Mrs. Linaka can be regarded as having a lot of money, and of course she must have a lot of connections. Of course, it is impossible for those figures in the military not to give her face. She is the head of the External Security Agency, and no matter what excuse she comes up with, she can definitely borrow a state-of-the-art and fastest military small transport plane to take charge of the transportation mission!

The small CASACN-25 military transport plane, with a speed of up to 1,000 kilometers per hour, flew from the Paris air base to Bamako, the capital of Mali, in just a few hours.

Soon, the plane was buried in the clouds high in the sky. The cabin space of this small transport aircraft is not large, not much different from a minibus bus. It's just that there are only four people sitting in the cabin, so it seems very empty!

Linaka's old 'woman' arrangement, the meaning is actually obvious. The reason why she sent two of her most powerful high-ranking agents to accompany her was, first, of course, to help Xiao Feng rescue her 'daughter' Diana, and second, to play the role of surveillance! After all, international relations between countries are often based on interests. She is the head of the External Security Agency, the highest intelligence agency in France, and she has no reason to be completely convinced of this major general officer from the 'door' of the country's highest security department in country Z!

"Hey, Philip, it looks like you're about forty years old this year, aren't you? Among us, you're an old-timer, can you give us a brief introduction to the situation in Mali?

Philippe is a middle-aged man of authentic French descent, this guy is 1.8 meters tall, strong and strong, and it can be seen that he is a seasoned guy. And especially his high 'straight' nose bridge made Xiao Feng jealous the most: Grandma, master, why isn't the bridge of my nose so 'stiff' and hooked? What should this guy do when he eats? The tip of his nose has to be 'inserted' into the meal!

But it's clear that Philip is a guy who doesn't talk a lot of nonsense. At this time, he smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Long, you have won the award! What kind of seniors are not seniors, in front of you, I dare not call myself seniors." However, it has been more than 20 years since I joined the army. Over the years, he has participated in two Middle East wars in accordance with the country's strategic intentions, and of course, has also carried out military missions in Mali. So, there are also some basic understandings of the situation there. Well, since Mr. Long asked, then I'll talk about it!"

"In fact, the cause of the 'chaos' and 'chaos' of the situation in Mali has to be attributed to the Tuareg people in northern Mali. The Tuaregs have been making trouble for many years, and the Tuaregs are a branch of the Berber people, who are generally white in North Africa, but with a brownish and yellow complexion. There is a part of the Tuareg people who are descendants of slaves in history and are black or black and white 'mixed' blood. Historically, the Tuaregs lived in the heart of the Sahara Desert, herding camels, goats and sheep, controlling the "gold and salt trade" that ran through the Sahara Desert, selling goods and slaves between the Mediterranean and Black Africa, and robbing other caravans. The Tuareg tribe is a matriarchal society, with a high status of 'women' and 'women', which is completely different from other Islamic peoples, and this is where the cultural conflict between the locals and al-Qaeda is very serious. The Tuareg 'women' and 'women' are not 'masked', but the men are 'masked' with blue veil, and their faces have been dyed blue with indigo dye for a long time, hence the name "Saharan blue people". ”

"After World War II, African countries have been a**. Along with the French African countries, the Tuaregs were divided into several different countries. Mali is one of them. Mali's population is predominantly black from the south, led by the Bambara, who are of the Hausa lineage, and very different from the Tuaregs, who are white North Africans, and are drawn by the French on a map. The already unruly Tuaregs were reluctant to submit to the French, who had rebelled during the French colonial period, and now it was even more unbearable to ask them to obey the blacks who had been enslaved, discriminated against, and trafficked by them. As a result, the Tuaregs have been trying to break away from Mali**, but have not been able to do so due to a lack of international support. ”

Speaking of this, Philip shook his head helplessly and sighed: "But now, the situation in North Africa has changed abruptly, which has made the long-awaited Tuareg people find an opportunity. So, they launched a rebellion again! And the Malian government has already asked the United Nations and our French Republic for help, so our government has sent armed forces to help the current Malian government!

"Wow, but now the situation is more complicated!" said Kavasi, who had been listening.

This guy is a black man in his thirties. This guy is black-headed and black-brained, but he is not big, only about 1.7 meters. Like many black people Xiao Feng has seen, this guy seems to be 'quite funny'. At this time, he spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders high, and said: "Now the al-Qaeda in North Africa also wants to take advantage of the 'chaos' to get a piece of the pie! Therefore, the situation is even more complicated! Those hateful base ghosts, they are not out of the blue, and we have suffered their losses before! Oh, oh my God! God willing, we will go this time, but we must not run into them!"

Xiao Feng smiled slightly and asked, "Oh? It seems that you hate them very much?"

"Oh my God! of course!" said Kavasi's chatterbox, which seemed to open like that. He immediately gushed out: "I fought in the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, oh my God! You don't know, those abominable base ghosts, uh, are like rats, throwing black guns everywhere! Damn, I'm not afraid of them if I do it, the point is, they always like to plant mines and carry out attacks, and after they are done, they actually burrow into the ground like rats, I really hate them! I have come back from Afghanistan, and I have sworn that I will never provoke them again! Hehe, but after returning to China, I was selected to join the External Security Bureau, but I didn't expect to be sent such a mission this time!

"However, the Tuaregs are said to be not easy to mess with!" After a pause, he said in wonder: "Azawad is the name given to their country by the Tuaregs, and its political organization is called the Azawad National Liberation Movement, with the capital of Timbuktu and an area of 875,500 square kilometers. So far, however, no country in the world has recognized Azawad**. The Azawad National Liberation Movement has no interest in Islamic jihad and does not want to 'mix' with al-Qaeda. The problem, however, is that they cannot defeat al-Qaeda, and several major towns and cities are under the control of al-Qaida loyalists. Al-Qaeda's goal, on the other hand, is to establish strict Sharia rule in the areas it controls, to set up training camps to train militants, and to use them as a base to spread to other parts of the surrounding area. This is obviously going to get you in big trouble. Hehe, anyway, these people are not easy to mess with!"
