Chapter 749: Mayor of the Town
"Damn, they're all equipped with drones. "Ye Tian did not enter the industrial town of Maiduguri, where martial law is already under full force. The place Ye Tian drove to was a border city called Kukawa in the northeast of Nigeria. On the map, Cukawa is located between the war-torn states of Chad and Niger. In the event of any military operation in either country, the regiments stationed in Kukava can strike at the first opportunity.
Ye Tian was ordered to prevent unidentified mercenaries in Chad or Niger from entering the outskirts of Maiduguri at all costs.
Intelligence information has already shown that a number of mercenary groups of unidentified forces have begun to assemble in the war-torn country, and no one dares to pat their chests to guarantee that these forces have no idea about investing in Huaxia. Once a large-scale war begins, there are not enough special forces who are good at decapitation or escort operations. Anyway, there will be no problems on the side of Maiduguri for a while, Ye Tian simply brought two bandits to visit his legion.
Fifty kilometers from Kukava, Ye Tian saw drones cruising above the highway in the dusty grasslands of Nigeria during the dry season.
"Wait, someone will come in a moment. The three of them found a shady place on the side of the road, got out of the car, squatted in the shade and smoked cigarettes. In less than ten minutes, two heavily armed Dongfeng Warrior military explosion-proof vehicles drove over.
The soldiers inside cautiously stopped more than ten meters away from Ye Tian, and the shooting hole was facing Ye Tian's side.
"We are a combat unit invited by the Nigerian government to protect the security of Nigerian areas, please show your identification, whether you are carrying weapons or not. The loudspeaker in the car made a buzzing sound with electricity and shouted to Ye Tian.
"These half-baked people don't speak as much English as I do. Ye Tian stood up with a cigarette in his mouth, took two steps forward and said lazily: "My name is Ye Tian, you can now immediately contact the legion commander Gary and Sora and tell them my identity." ”
The other party had obviously heard of Ye Tian's name, and knew that Ye Tian was an Asian. Hearing Ye Tian's words, he immediately said, please wait.
Two minutes later, all the armed men in the two cars got out of the car and saluted Ye Tian in a standard military posture.
"Welcome, leader of the Legion. Gary and Captain Sola said they would be there soon. ”
The two cars each walked down two soldiers and saluted Ye Tian. Both cars remained maneuverable, and the weapon operators did not get out of the car. This made Ye Tian nod secretly in his heart, the level of Gary and Sola's training force was really not Gai.
"Boss, don't say that this is the legion you are talking about!" Seeing the military explosion-proof vehicle with shooting holes and machine guns stopped, the soldiers on it also saluted Ye Tian, and they always thought that Ye Tian was only three or two kittens in Africa, and Dashan and Xiaofei were completely shocked.
"This is the patrol on the periphery, I'll show you the Legion later. Ye Tian enjoyed the shocked look of the two turtles, and within five minutes, a Hummer came speeding from a distance, raising up the dust.
"You kid is back!" As soon as the Hummer car stopped, two middle-aged men in civilian clothes jumped out of the car, walked over and gave Ye Tian a bear hug. To the surprise of Dashan and Xiaofei, the two of them actually spoke Chinese.
"Let me introduce you, these are the two bandits I dug up from China, Dashan and Xiaofei. Ye Tian turned around and dragged Dashan and Xiaofei, who were a little restrained, to Geri and Sora.
"This is Legion Commander Gary, this is Deputy Legion Commander Sora, the entire Legion has been trained by them. ”
Gary and Sora warmly shook hands with Dashan Xiaofei, shook their heads and said with a smile: "Don't listen to Ye Tian's nonsense, we are only responsible for training this legion, and the legion will always be Ye Tian." ”
As the group drove to Kukava, ragged refugees with large crockpots on their heads fled inland Nigeria with a group of children on their heads. The closer you get to Kukava, the more patrols there are on the side of the road. When they were five kilometers away from the barracks, Dashan and Xiaofei even saw queues of tanks and helicopter gunships.
When they arrived at the barracks, Dashan and Xiaofei were completely shocked. This time, the legion dispatched a large force of 5,000 elites, which was first-class in terms of technical and tactical level and equipment. It's just that Ye Tian has different ideas from Gehry, Ye Tian's favorite thing is to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger.
There is an abandoned military camp in Kukava, and because of the perennial fighting on the border for the past five years, all the people in Kukawa have fled, except for a few poor defenders and local government officials. And these defenders have already become veteran oilers, in addition to oppressing the people, they colluded with exiled mercenaries from abroad to enter Nigeria to commit crimes.
Gehry had just arrived, and after informing the local government agency of the real existence, Gehry sent soldiers to draw a military cordon, and then began to draw a patrol route as usual.
Hearing that Ye Tian was coming, Gehry and Sola immediately threw down the mayor of Kukawa Town with a flattering face, but greeted Ye Tian.
The mayor of the town is named Visogan, who is of the Igbo ethnic group in Nigeria. The life of being oppressed and unorganized for many years has made this short, dark-skinned middle-aged man always remain humble. When I saw everyone, I nodded and greeted with a smile.
The person who can greet the leaders of the two legions at the same time, Vysogen naturally knows that he is a very important person. Seeing Ye Tian getting in the car, he couldn't wait to lie on the ground to greet him, and his humble attitude not only made people not only unable to have a good impression, but also felt a little disgusted.
"This mayor of Visogen is not bad, but he has been bullied and afraid all year round. Kukawa is part of Borno State, but both the Nigerian and state governments have given it up. Gary leaned close to Ye Tian's ear and explained to Ye Tian in Chinese.
Sure enough, hearing Gehry's explanation, Ye Tian's expression softened a lot. He shook hands warmly with Vysogan and said in English: "Mr. Vysogan, we are invited by the Nigerian government to be responsible for the security of the Nigerian border area, sniping and annihilating all enemies who may cross the border, and hope that you can cooperate with our actions." ”
Wei Sogen lowered his head and held Ye Tian's hand with both hands, and said excitedly: "I swear to God, I will do my best to assist you and your legion, even if I sacrifice my life, I will not have any hesitation." "Visogen is not stupid, he has had enough of this border town where birds don't poop and dogs dare to bark at him twice, and this may be his only chance to turn over.
Prior to this, when Kukawa had not been abandoned by Borno State, Visogen had repeatedly asked the state government to report to the central government and send troops to Kukava to deal with the increasingly chaotic border situation. On several occasions, the central Government of Nigeria has also sent troops to Kukava at the request of the state government. It's just that these old soldiers are arrogant one by one, and they ask for money after the big army drives in, and they are more ruthless than those mercenaries when they secretly eat and take cards. When these old soldiers were almost gone, they reported to the central government that the border situation had been controlled, and then slapped their butts and went back to receive the reward, and the entire border situation did not improve in the slightest.
Later, the central government of Nigeria became a mud bodhisattva and it was difficult to protect itself, and signs of war began to appear in Borno State. Kukawa, as a small town where the border between Nigeria and Chad and Niger meets, was abandoned by the state government at the first time.
After all, Wisogan is a low-level official recognized by the central government and the state government, and whoever leaves cannot go. After hiring several mercenaries at his own expense to resist the border war, Vysogen had no choice but to give up. Chad and Niger are landlocked in Central Africa, and the two countries, which do not have any resources or geographical advantages, are in a state of war all year round. The mercenaries of the two countries are like carp crossing the river, and they are fighting back and forth like playing house. With the weakening of the power of the central government in Nigeria and the increase of hatred between various ethnic groups, large-scale fighting began to occur in the border areas of Nigeria. More and more border towns of little value are being abandoned by the government to fend for themselves, and this town in Visogan is the first to be abandoned by the war-torn states of Chad and Niger.
Kukawa has a natural geographical advantage, so some large-scale mercenary agencies like to gather supplies here. Although it was abandoned, it gradually became a gathering place for mercenary agencies. Vysogen had no choice but to spend his days wandering among these powerful mercenaries. He didn't want to provoke these murderous mercenaries, and even if he was killed by them, it would be just a name in the report of the Nigerian central government.
These mercenaries dare to attack and plunder, all of them are small towns like Kukawa, which have no garrison and grandmother doesn't love uncle and don't love. They don't dare to go to the real kind of industrial towns and populous states with valuable resources.
This time, however, things seem to be starting to look different, with the central government of Nigeria being threatened by openly terrorist groups, and this is the famous Hawas. There are already opposition parties in Nigeria that have responded strongly to the upcoming Nigerian general election, claiming that it is precisely because of the government's pro-Western attitude that Nigeria is targeted by terrorist groups.
If the Nigerian election changes or a terrorist group succeeds in carrying out terrorist acts in Nigeria, the whole of Nigeria will be plunged into nationwide riots.
So this time, the mercenaries in Chad and Niger began to advance very tacitly towards the border of Cukawa, the nearest supply point. These prairie hyena-like hunters have already smelled Nigeria's fresh blood, and they can't wait to bare their fangs in anticipation of the upcoming revelry.
Visogen saw in Ye Tian the determination of the Nigerian government, and also saw the political wisdom of the Nigerian government in this crisis. Leaving aside the United States and Russia, as long as China intervenes, there will be no major chaos in the political situation in Nigeria.
Although this legion has never identified itself, Wisogan knows that in the proxy war of the great powers, this legion represents the Huaxia Kingdom.
