551. Chapter 551: Divergence

"Who are you?" the mercenary of the Gurkha squad was alert to the people in front of him, he had never had them. They all had wounds, but they smiled like children.

"Black Island Company, I'm Lin Rui. Is Surya still alive?" said Lin Rui, a mercenary, in a low voice.

"You, you're Lin Rui?" said the mercenary in disbelief.

Lin Rui frowned and said, "Am I famous?" expression, as if I should take out a pen and sign your name or something. ”

"What are you kidding? Of course you're famous, you're the winner of the Waynes race. The mercenary was pleasantly surprised, "God, don't you know? Maybe one day, you will be like the silver wolf back then. Become an idol for all. ”

"Alright, man. This legend of yours, tired and hungry, with a gunshot wound to the chest. I would appreciate it if you could take me to Surya. Lin Rui sighed and said with a wry smile.

"Of course, he's in command, and I'll take you there. God, I'm so happy, I didn't expect to see you. The mercenary was overjoyed, "Later, I mean, when you are free, can you really leave me an autograph." I thought I'd just sign my AK47 butt, maybe that would bring me good luck. ”

Lin Rui was so tired that he couldn't speak. When they were taken to the temporary headquarters, Surya was simply startled, "Lin Rui?!you!are you all still alive?"

"I'm alive for the time being. Lin Rui smiled, "I can't contact you, I thought you were dead." ”

"The communicator on my helmet was blown up, but it was a lucky thing, at least my head was still intact. Surya pointed to the bandage around his head and explained, "A mortar shell from the government army was a little close to me at the time. ”

"Well, you lucky fellow. Lin Rui said, "How long has the government army's offensive lasted?"

Surya was silent for a while and said, "Since the day after you left, it hasn't stopped until now. More than half of the people of the National Liberation Organization have already died, and my people have also suffered heavy losses. But we are still resisting, and Tekrit is not lost. How's that going?"

Lin Rui nodded and said, "Don't worry." We used explosives to completely wipe out the headquarters of the garrison in the capital, and the White Scorpion and most of the senior officers did not escape this fate. Without the offensive of the capital garrison, the lone army of government forces in Tekrit could not hold out for long. They have no logistics and no backup. This time they are cornered. ”

"Well done!" Surya's eyes lit up, "that way, we don't have to worry about anything." And according to the latest news, the Panthers Guray have already gained the advantage on the right and can come back to support us at any time. ”

Lin Rui nodded, "Not only that, but according to our judgment, the government army will be forced to move from an all-out offensive to a full-scale defense stage after suffering such heavy losses. This means that the time for a counteroffensive by the national liberation groups is also imminent. ”

At this moment, a member of a national liberation organization hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words in Surya's ear. Surya was overjoyed, "The enemy has retreated, is this true?"

"It's true, they retreated the way they came from two directions. The Colonel asked me to come over and ask for your opinion, should we pursue it?"

Surya was silent for a while, then shook her head resolutely, "No need, you guys have a geographical advantage here. But when you chase you outside the city, this advantage will no longer exist, and you will be overstretched in terms of the number of personnel, and you will not be able to form a superior force locally. So now the pursuit will outweigh the losses. ”

"Yes, you're right. Now that the opponent's defeat is decided, we don't need to take risks, and we don't need to fight with them. Lin Rui said in a low voice, "Besides, we don't know if they have any tricks, the best way is to stick to it." They have been hungry for a few days, and now they mainly rely on iron-fisted means to maintain military discipline, but there will always be times when they can't maintain it. A soldier can skip a meal, but he can't go without three meals a day, right? If he goes hungry, there will be no military discipline at all. ”

"You're right. Surya nodded, turned to the member of the liberation organization, and said, "Tell the colonel, to stick to it." Let him not try to pursue him. ”

"Yes sir. "The militant walked out of the command room.

Shogishi walked over to the map and whispered, "If I'm not mistaken, this raid should be their best all-or-nothing option." And their sudden withdrawal should have received a response from the government army, knowing the rout of the capital garrison, so their hearts were scattered. I think the plan we made before can be implemented. ”

"What plan?" said Surya, frowning.

"How much supplies do you have in Tecrete? I mean food reserves. Shogan turned back.

"The quantity is quite sufficient, mainly flour, corn and beans, which should be able to last for about a year. Surya said.

Shogishi nodded, "It's better to take out some of it." Distribute to those prisoners of war, feed them, and release them. ”

"Release the prisoners of war?" Surya frowned, "what does that mean?"

"You want to use these prisoners of war to shake the opponent's will to fight. Lin Rui frowned.

"In the face of hunger, everyone's will is weak. Warriors are also human beings, and they also have to eat. We deliberately exaggerate the number of defenders here, as well as the strength of the armed forces and the abundance of supplies. Compared with the situation that they are not even able to eat enough now, who still has the confidence to fight? Releasing a few prisoners of war can completely break the fighting spirit of the other side. Isn't that a great deal?" said Shogishi with a shrug.

"I don't agree!" said the Colonel, walking in from outside the headquarters, with some displeasure, "I am against using our food to feed these beasts who are fighting against us. They should be shot and executed immediately according to the crimes they have committed!"

"War is not killing, it's strategy. "The reason why there are so many wars in Africa is because most people only know about killing, but they don't know how to stop it." A person who only knows how to kill is not a visionary. And the massacre of prisoners of war is a violation of international conventions. "This is Africa, where the international conventions you are talking about have never been fulfilled. That's all made up by the white people. The colonel shook his head, "In a qiē struggle, there are only two kinds of fighting here: killing and being killed. I chose to be the one who killed rather than the one who was killed. ”
