Chapter 2002: Border Command

Africa, the border of Ammor, thousands of miles of red fields, the dust of the convoy soared into the sky. Along the potholed border road, the convoy of Lin Rui and others drove to their intended location. After the car stopped, Lin Rui jumped out of the car. He took off his goggles and a sand bandana over his face.

"Are we there?" said Crazy Horse, slowly opening his eyes from behind the car. "Damn, this broken road is like a pimple scar on Sergei's face, not a single place is flat. ”

"Fart!" Sergey scoffed, "the scar on my face is not half a foot deep." But to be honest, this broken road is like a last century, don't they know how to build it?"

"The road is said to have been built in the middle of the last century. However, Anmor has been under the rule of the warlords for a long time, how can it be possible for them to use the money to build roads? "But Crazy Horse is right, a half-foot-deep hole in Sergei's face is more than enough." ”

"What do you mean?" Sergey was inexplicable.

"He's saying you're thick-skinned. Lin Rui sneered, but he immediately understood that this Russian would not understand the allusion of being thick-skinned. Sure enough, Sergei, the Russian Yankee, looked confused.

Lin Rui didn't bother to tell him, just instructed the others to drive the car to a relatively hidden place. It is said to be a hidden place, but it is only sheltered by a small number of acacia bushes, but it is safer than a bare barren meadow, which is somewhat sheltered.

"We're going to park the command vehicle there and fix it. Crazy Horse you take two people and search the surrounding area on alert. The rest of the people helped carry the supplies, set up the command vehicle, and put camouflage nets on the pockets of other vehicles. Sandro, you take someone to put the wire fence on. I don't want to see a lion or hyena break in. Communication team, where is the communication team?" Lin Rui ordered.

"I'm here, Captain Rick. The bearded fat man under Cobain was panting with a large suitcase.

"Will, it's time for you to lose weight, it's good for you to go out often. Lin Rui patted him on the shoulder and said, "After the command vehicle is set up, take your people to establish communication in the fastest time and complete the commissioning work." Cobain isn't here, you're the boss of the team. Good work, Lulu your strength. ”

"Of course, Captain. I've always been the team's deputy. Fat Will nodded. "I promise to be able to set up a communication by noon. ”

"Okay, go now. Lin Rui patted him, turned to Sergei and said, "Russians, come here, you go to Lincoln with the guns and chiefs, and let Lincoln's group B build simple fortifications around the barbed wire fence and deploy machine-gun fire." ”

"Understood, Boss. Sergei answered, followed the guns and the others and turned away. The whole convoy became busier after it stopped, and they had to build a base and build basic fortifications around this temporary base, so as not to be unprepared in case of accidents. The on-board motor started working, and the humming low noise was a bit upsetting. Group B tried to dig wells in the vicinity to get groundwater, and they needed water.

A few hours later, communications at the base had been restored. Lin Rui has established contacts with the headquarters on the island of St. Kaiser and several nearby oil production areas. Briefings were heard from several other units guarding the oil production area. Crazy Horse and the others, who went out to investigate the situation, also returned. "Boss, it's safe nearby, but there's not good news. "After Crazy Horse came back, he found Lin Rui as soon as possible.

"What's going on?" Lin Rui frowned.

Crazy Horse was in the conference room of the command vehicle, pointing to the map, "We're in this location right now, and here and here are several multinational oil companies. When we were on patrol just now, there was a small build-up of troops near one of the oil fields. ”

"How many?" Lin Rui frowned.

"It's estimated that there should be hundreds. It is very likely that it was prepared to prepare for misfire and create an incident. We assassinated Fisher, the warlord of Ammor, last time, and now the Order is ready to exploit the power vacuum left behind by his death. Crazy Horse whispered.

The so-called power vacuum generally refers to a situation in which the leader is out of office or dies suddenly, resulting in a short-term vacancy of the position, and the successor has not yet been immediately elected or the temporary authorization is not clear, resulting in a situation in which there is no dominant force within the ruling group. In areas controlled by African warlords, this usually leads to civil strife and unrest, as well as a time of unprecedented internal factional fighting.

"Can you figure out which faction these soldiers belong to?" Lin Rui frowned.

"It's all camouflage uniforms, with no obvious markings. It looks like Fisher's old ministry though, as they have several cars painted with the slogan Long Live the Liberator of Ammore. This was the slogan that Fisher had originally proposed. Crazy Horse nodded.

"Actuary, come here. Lin Rui turned around and said.

"What's going on with Crazy Horse?" said Shogishi.

"There is an armed force of almost a hundred people nearby. Judging by their vehicles, it seems to be the old ministry of the warlord Fisher. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "Did the intelligence say that Fisher's old department is currently under whose control?"

Shogishi frowned, "The information is not very clear, it is said that after Fisher's death, his people were divided into several factions. They are all vying for leadership, one of which is led by one of his nephews, and the other is led by one of his brothers-in-law. Both groups of people have the support of local tribal forces, and now it is basically whoever the Secret Order favors is likely to be in power. But although there was tension between the two of them, there was no full-scale conflict yet. ”

Lin Rui said in a low voice, "However, now it looks like this situation is about to begin." Is their sphere of influence in the vicinity of this oil extraction?"

Shogishi nodded, "It should be." In all likelihood, this was a premeditated operation. First, the two warlords provoked the incident and attacked each other. The Secret Society will then take advantage of the chaos to attack the oil production areas of these international oil companies. Usually this is the case, as long as the conflict rises to a certain level. For their own safety, these IOCs will try to withdraw from the production area and wait until the situation has stabilized. ”

"These two groups of local warlords are being used as monkeys, but they are still in the dark. Lin Rui frowned and said, "Which company does this oil production area belong to?"

"It is an oil extraction company that belongs to the Chinese side. Jiang Jian said in a low voice. "This is also logical, as China's attitude towards African countries has always been relatively mild. The Secret Society must want to start with them and test the attitude of these multinational corporations. ”
