Chapter 109 Transportation Lines
"I thought, I'm going to stay...... I'm not a very trusting person, and I don't fit into other teams very easily. Ivan said slowly.
"What about you?" Zhao Jianfei looked at Lin Rui and said.
Lin Rui shrugged, "I don't care," As soon as the contract expires early, I'm the same everywhere. Second, I can't do these things. I'm just an employee, and I have to listen to my boss. I don't have any acquaintances in the company, I only recognize Michelle and you. β
"Alright, let's stay together. Zhao Jianfei stood up and said, "Actually, I talked to the other members of the team, and they were all willing to stay." I'm here to see what you think. Have a good rest, I guess, there won't be many days like this in the future. β
Although Zhao Jianfei thought that the days of peace were numbered, Ivan stayed in the hospital until he was discharged normally, and neither of them received a mission notice. This made Lin Rui feel a little strange, but he didn't know why. Because his injuries were much lighter than Ivan's, he had already been discharged from the hospital. Ivan's return has brought together the members of XCOM once again.
"Hey, hey British, you look good. Lin Rui patted Ivan Dao.
"Strong as always. Ivan nodded, he turned to Zhao Jianfei and said, "Captain, what are the arrangements you have made recently?"
"Come in with me, I have something to announce. Zhao Jianfei looked at the group of players under him and said. "I know you're all idle during this time. But it's not that there are no tasks, it's that I didn't take over at all. In the past month, I have almost turned down three assignments,"
"Refuse the mission?" Qin Fen said in surprise, "Could it be that the company will allow us to do this?"
"With the silver wolf here, the African branch will give us a little face. And they are now well manned and do not count on us. Zhao Jianfei said slowly, "But now there is a task that we must do." I just got the mission report!" Zhao Jianfei shook the handheld computer in his hand. "Actuary, I'll leave it to you. β
Jiang An frowned slightly, took the handheld computer from Zhao Jianfei's hand, and connected the handheld computer to his tactical computer. He looked at the contents and frowned, "Has the information in this been confirmed?"
"It's confirmed, and this is information sent by the silver wolf, and the source is absolutely reliable. Zhao Jianfei said slowly.
"What kind of mission is it, and what kind of information is it?" Lin Rui said with a slight frown.
"The Silver Wolf has an up-to-date information about the Secret Society, a mysterious force operating in Africa. Zhao Jianfei turned to Jiang'an Dao, "Show them." β
Shogishi nodded, and transferred the information from the computer to the projector, "Our old friend from last time, General Dunby. Since the last time we failed in action, he has become even more rampant. He took the initiative to harass the government army many times, and some time ago, he also took another town from the government army. Now he is the biggest warlord in the region. Of course, this qiΔ is all because of the support of the Secret Society. β
Not only that, but in order to establish his image, he was regularly interviewed by the Western media, and on the one hand, he talked about revolutionary peace and ideals on television, and on the other hand, he stepped up his efforts to obtain money and expand armaments. This has made Santuyak's government forces already feel the crisis of YanzhΓ²ng. They now desperately need to suppress General Dunby's limelight, and naturally aim at General Dunby's most lucrative business, the illegal diamond trade. They want to fundamentally cut off General Dunby's financial resources. Zhao Jianfei said slowly.
"What exactly should we do to cut off the economic resources of those * armed forces?" Lin Rui asked again.
"The first step starts with cracking down on their trade transport. The government forces have asked us to cooperate with them in cutting off the trade and transportation routes of General Dunby's rebels. He switched the shore to a drawing and pointed to the road on the drawing, "This is the main access to the Santuyak border, Highway 732. The rebels would take the stolen diamond ore along the road and trade it illegally abroad. And this point on the map is actually a border town called Perata. Transactions are all made there. Zhao Jianfei said, "A steady stream of diamond ore has been transported here, either exchanged for money, or directly exchanged for arms. β
"So, this is like a bazaar for blood diamond trading?" Lin Rui said with a move in his eyes.
"Of course, this is not only where General Dunby traded, but also where many of the warlords in Africa traded on the black market. Gold, diamonds, and ivory will be exchanged for weapons and equipment here, and then used in the melee of the warlords. Ironically, the years of fighting among African warlords have caused great suffering to the local people, but they have caused the unprecedented prosperity of this Pelata. Zhao Jianfei said slowly.
"So. What is our specific mission?Attack their transport convoy?" Lin Rui frowned.
"That's too low-level. Not only do we want their fleets, but we also want to ruin their future deals. Zhao Jianfei smiled slightly. "We are not going to attack their transport convoys along the way. Because by doing so, they would lose at most a truckload of goods. Although this was distressing for General Dunby, it was far from breaking his muscles and bones. We're going to cut them off completely. β
"You mean, we're going to get rid of their buyers?" Ivan mused.
"If they get rid of the buyers, they will have new buyers. Besides, most of the people who were able to stand in the foreground and deal with these warlords were only agents, not real buyers. We can't threaten them. The United Nations ban on conflict diamonds has been around for many years, but hasn't the blood diamond trade still not stopped?"
"So, the best way for us to think about it once and for all is to ruin General Dunby's credibility. Zhao Jianfei said slowly, "We will go to Perata and wait for them to complete the deal." And after the deal is done, they will be very relaxed, and that's our chance to deal with them. We took this shipment and then created the illusion that General Dunby was black. Then at least for a short time, no one will do business with them anymore. This was a big blow to General Dunby's economic situation. β
"I'm afraid that's not going to work, right? We're not black. Lin Rui shook his head and said, "How do you pretend to be General Dunby?"
"Who said that General Dunby would use his own people to do black things?" Shogan smiled slightly, "Now everyone knows that he has a relationship with the people of the Secret Society." As long as we find someone to spread some rumors after the accident, he can't wash it even if he wants to. β
"That's ruthless enough. But is this information accurate?" Ivan wondered, "There won't be another intelligence mistake like last time, right?"
