Chapter 83: Mysterious Troops

The attack on the African branch quickly alarmed the top management of Morningstar.

The meeting of 12 managers of the board of directors of the company was held urgently. On the large LCD screen in the conference room, all relevant information is listed one by one.

The chief white old man's face sank like water, and he looked at all the humanes, "Two stations in Africa were attacked, and the number of dead and wounded was nearly hundred, of which even forty or fifty were combatants, and the others were various workers. Yesterday afternoon, the building of the Africa Division was sniped by unknown gunmen. Two security guards were killed instantly, and even Alberta was nearly killed. That's all we know so far. What do you guys think about that?"

"Although our mercenary garrisons are not comparable in size to regular military bases, their security measures are as strict as they are. The fact that the other side is able to launch attacks on two different locations at the same time shows that the other side has considerable combat capabilities and resources. This allows them to launch two raids at the same time and in different locations. Judging from their raid methods, they were also quite clean and neat, leaving no traces. A middle-aged man said calmly, "This is definitely a well-planned attack, and from command to operation, it is quite successful." ”

In other words, the other party is very professional. "Joe. Claire nodded. "Successfully attacked two of our sites, killing and wounding many people, but leaving no clues to follow. Such a military element is by no means capable of being done by local armed men. ”

The chief old man nodded, "Not bad, and from their actions, there are many traces of special operations." I have no doubt that this is a well-trained and well-equipped force, but the question is who are these people and what are their purposes?"

Joe. Claire said lightly, "We might as well think about this question from a different angle, who can openly fight against us on the African continent?"

"What do you mean?" said the chief old man with a frown.

"An attack on a mercenary company, but not a local force, then it seems that there are only two possibilities left. Either it's some kind of state act, or it's another good group of mercenaries. Joe smiled faintly and said, "I don't think the military of any country would do such a thing by sniping a company department head." They don't have to do it at all because they're our employers. Usually they just need a phone call and we have to do what they want, so it doesn't have to be like that. Then the last one left may be our counterpart. ”

"You mean other mercenary organizations. The chief old man muttered.

"I don't dare to say for sure, but it's not a little bit likely. After all, we occupy a large share of the African mercenary market, and since 2000, our company's share of the African mercenary market has exceeded 45%. Almost many of the armed factions in central and south-western Africa are our customers. It's no surprise that we're the target of public criticism in this situation. Joe shrugged. "I think we should look for our competitors, especially those who have the strength to compete with us for a monopoly in the region. You might be able to find some clues. ”

Silver Wolf Michelle said coldly, "I'm against this. ”

"Why?" said Joe, snorting.

"The reason is very simple, there are not many private military companies with the same strength as Morningstar, but there are definitely a lot. Yes, they don't have as much market share as we do, but that's because we were in Africa much earlier, so we have a better footing. If we suspect or even accuse one of them without any evidence. Then we will be very passive, because we are the first to break this rule of friendship. Michelle shook her head and said, "So we shouldn't act rashly at the moment." ”

"Don't you act rashly?" Qiao smiled mockingly, "Silver Wolf, are you really old, are you so old that you can't even fight back against Cheng DΓΉ?"

Silver Wolf Michelle said lightly, "Age and experience can never weaken a person's courage, they only make him appear more rational and calm." I don't need to pretend to be indignant, and everyone can feel my anger about it. But I don't think this false speculation should lead to tough measures against other companies. In the final analysis, private military companies are not purely based on fighting, but on relationships. The relationship between the parties. ”

Qiao Yi slapped the table and sneered, "According to what you mean, let's just endure it like this?"

"Of course not. Michelle shook his head and said, "I'm just putting a hold on to the operation and finding out the true identities of these attackers before making plans." ”

"That's procrastination. "It's already happened," said Joe, "and it would be the worst if we did nothing and kept delaying." Because we were on high and everyone was watching us. Including those of our customers. If we don't do anything, we are considered weak. This is in Africa! In a world where the law of the jungle is the strongest, we must not take the initiative to show weakness. ”

The chief old man looked at them and said calmly. "You all have a point. However, there is only one thing I want now. I'm going to find out who the other person is, and then I'm going to decide what kind of way to solve it. Otherwise, a qiΔ“ is empty talk. ”

Michelle nodded, "That's what I mean, we have to confirm the identity of the other party first, and then talk about anything else." ”

On the twelve seats in the conference room, someone stood up and said, "Whoever this group is, they're still fighting our guys inside the station. Didn't we find a useful message?"

"The other side is very careful. But even so, they were killed in the attacks on the two sites, reportedly in the number of twenty or thirty. But we never saw the body of their fallen man, nor did we find any weapons or equipment at the scene that could reveal his identity. First the old man frowned.

"Were their dead taken away by them?" the man frowned, "otherwise how could they not have found each other's bodies?"

"In fact they didn't take the bodies, but all their dead were burned, charred corpses beyond recognition, not even a single piece of clothing remained. It is supposed that a small white phosphorus incendiary bomb was used, a non-standard weapon, and there is simply no way to tell where it was produced. Do you think we can get any useful information from these charred corpses?" said the chief old man coldly.

Everyone was silent, no one expected that the other party would do such a desperate job, and even refuse to leave a single corpse. But this also further confirms that the other party is a group of quite professional and ruthless fighters
