Marschel forced a smile, "I'm already like this, what tricks can I play." Cobwa was just one of my clients, and he was killing himself. What can I do?"

"Very smart. Then get in the car, Mr. Marschel. And, it's best to keep your mouth shut about these bodyguards. Lin Rui made a gesture and said, "You know, who will be the most unlucky if we encounter an ambush after we get there?"

"That's me, of course. Marschel sighed.

"It's good to know. Shogan pushed Marschelde into the car, "Let's go." Their three SUVs took the Marschel and galloped east along the lake.

"Lin Rui, this is the latest news from Cobain. Satellite shows that according to Marschel's position, there are indeed signs of activity in small units. But they seem to be on the move, stealthy, and not far from there, there is a construction site for a Chinese company. He checked that those Chinese should be assisting in the construction of a border road. ”

"From where?" Lin Rui frowned.

"The plan is to build here from Uganda along the Lake District, but due to frequent regional conflicts. To date, all geological surveys have not been completed. Jiang An thought for a while and said in a low voice, "I suspect that this is the purpose of Kobwa's kidnapping of these Chinese employees." ”

"What do you say?" Lin Rui frowned.

"The DRC is very rich in minerals. Road exploration, which results in the discovery of mineral deposits, has occurred from time to time. Cobwa chose to entrench himself in this place and tried to stop the construction of the Chinese side, so it is highly likely that he found some mineral deposits here, and it was a rich mine. And he is using the sale of these resources in exchange for money, to strengthen the army, and even to find mercenaries.

But he also knew that if the border road continued to advance, it would affect his plans to accumulate money. As soon as the prospecting learns that there is a large mineral deposit nearby, the resource information will be reported, and it will immediately be a fat meat in the eyes of the government army and other * troops. He didn't want that, he wanted to make a fortune quietly. Jiang Jian said in a low voice.

"It makes sense that the recent intensification of conflict in this region is entirely caused by him. The kidnapping of Chinese workers and the extortion of high ransoms are a pretext aimed at pressuring Chinese companies to suspend the project, preferably to put it on hold indefinitely, believing that the situation in the region is dire. lest the warlord's plan to make a fortune be ruined. Lin Rui nodded.

"That makes sense, why are they offering such a large ransom? They want to sabotage this border road project. Shogishi nodded.

"It may not be so simple, but most of the resource smuggling in Africa is almost entirely done by the Secret Society, often in the name of Western companies, who buy off these local warlords with arms and money, and smuggle some precious resources such as diamonds and rare metals into Europe. Profiteering from it, that's what the Secret Society has been doing before. Lin Rui said in a low voice.

"It makes sense that Kobwa, a Turkish warlord, would not have such a good brain, and most African warlords would not specifically target the Chinese at all. Sergey replied.

"Yesterday when I went out with Crazy Horse to get information, we talked to the local government soldiers. They have been fighting for many years, and the government army and the armed forces have won and lost each other, and the battle has always been stalemate.

I asked the black soldiers, why didn't the * armed men come and attack their camp, didn't they bloody one of your villages the other day? Because there are a large number of Chinese in the camp. * Armed bullying is weak and afraid of hard, and basically will not attack the Chinese here. An armed attack on a camp with a large number of Chinese workers would be a blatant war against China, and they did not have the guts, so they bullied and bullied the government army and pulled them down.

What's more, China's investment and assistance in Africa over the years have been enormous. This gang also hopes that one day in the future, when they gain power, they will be able to receive assistance from China. So in general, the * army will not attack the Chinese. The real attacks on the Chinese were a large number of bandits and mobs in war-torn areas.

The black officers also revealed that they were also willing to defend the Chinese, rather than go to the front, to be with the Chinese, relatively safe, * not to invade much. They simply relied on the Chinese to protect them in turn. ”

Lin Rui frowned and said, "So, there are people behind Kobwa who are supporting him and giving him advice." Therefore, in the past six months, he has been able to develop from a few Ugandan bandit armies to a large-scale warlord army. With the financial and armed support of the Order, even if Cobis is an idiot puppet who doesn't understand anything, he can still sit firmly in the position of a prince here. ”

"Lin Rui, it seems that Qin Chuan didn't tell us the truth. He probably knew that the matter was related to the Secret Society, and that it could not be resolved through normal negotiation channels, so he came to us. Jiang Jian said in a low voice.

"That's how it should be. Lin Rui nodded, "But it doesn't matter." Anyway, we have already taken over this mission, so there is no such thing as backing down halfway. ”

Shogishi nodded, "I think so too, but the Order is different from ordinary African warlord forces. Their military literacy is very high, and most of their members have undergone strict combat training and have a very tough style. We don't know the number and armament of the other side now, so wouldn't it be a bit presumptuous to go there in such a hurry?"

"There are two sides to the story. Lin Rui thought for a while and said, "We are going now, it seems reckless, but they are also unprepared." And if we go back when we are well prepared, we will have to wait at least two more days. In the next two days, can you expect this guy Marshalld not to snitch against Cobwa? Even if we control Marshalld, what about his men?"

"It makes sense, too. Shogishi nodded, "Things are never perfect. When we get there, let's take a look at the situation before making a decision. ”

Lin Rui nodded, "I understand." If you are not sure, you will never act rashly. ”

He pressed his headset and said, "Cobain, I remember you gathered information on this. I need all branch locations for the Society's recent activity. Help me see if there are any traces of the Order's armed activity. ”

"On the border between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda?" replied Cobain, "it is probably unlikely, for the Order's activities are hidden, but somewhat regular." Of course, it is also possible that a small number of Militants of the Order are in force. You know that since their last operation, there has been no sign of large-scale activity, but it is very scattered. ”

"That is, they cannot have a large number of armed men in this area. Lin Rui nodded, "Okay, give me the information about the Kobwa camp." I need a detailed satellite map. ”
