Chapter 280: Support?
"It should be the M23 Occupy School." The main language of M23 is English, and the official language of Rwanda is English. They also have a source of military power in the form of the Boy Scouts of Country G. These children are looted, trained and brainwashed, and then armed into battle. On the battlefield, these children are more brave and cruel than adults. Xiao He silently counted and said, "The regular army should be between two hundred and three hundred, and the child army should be between one hundred and fifty and two hundred and fifty." If they have resting people, the total strength should be between six and seven hundred. There is a battalion and a half of troops. ”
"Also equipped with a missile vehicle, on-board radar. Armored vehicles. This is part of the M23 regular troops. How did they end up here? ”
Xiao He said: "I make a bold guess, do they want to open a camp here?" ”
"They occupied the cities of the Eastern Province, among which was the largest city, Goma. Why set up camp here? ”
Xiao He retracted his head and said, "When I was in the peacekeeping force, I heard that warlords dare not mess around in big cities. Because there are a lot of journalists in it. And the city provides tax revenue. In the warlord army, the volunteers came from the cities, and the conscripts came from the countryside. M23 should not force conscription in major cities, even if it does not take into account international public opinion, it is necessary to estimate the resistance of the urban population. Goma, for example, has a population of 800,000. The M23 occupation forces were just over two thousand men. The people did not resist because it had nothing to do with them who was the master, but if they were forcibly expropriated in the city, it would cause civil unrest. ”
Li Qi felt reasonable: "So M23 opened a military base outside the city. Troops can be drawn from the city and plunder from the countryside. As well as a point, there is a large diamond mine nearby...... Perhaps, M23 wants to compete with the Luba warlords for the right to mine the diamonds. Rwanda also produces a small amount of diamonds, and once the diamond mines are occupied, the diamonds are shipped directly to Rwanda, and the official whitewashing can be sold internationally in a blatant manner. However, I feel that there is something missing from this camp. ”
"Isn't there a little less hostage?" Xiao He agreed: "M23 is the target of the peacekeeping force. International schools are so obvious that they will lead to air strikes by peacekeepers. Unless they have dozens of international hostages. That's right, the reason why they shot down the plane with missiles is that they don't want the news to leak so quickly. Consultant, you see, the inner backer should be the cafeteria. The laying of barbed wire has already begun. That's where the hostages are held. They should be waiting for the hostages to arrive. ”
"If they're going to fight for diamond mines, they're supposed to loot Scouts. Now their strength is not up or down with the Luba. ”
According to the United Nations, there are 300,000 child soldiers in the world, most of them in Africa. Thirty percent of the Scouts are female xìng. According to the memories of some of the girl soldiers who were rescued by humanitarian organizations, they were scared at first. Refusal to take up arms. But he soon succumbed because he had no food to eat. Adult soldiers let them smoke cocaine. Lure them to shoot their loved ones while smoking cocaine and drink their blood. Some were given an axe to decapitate any scouts who tried to escape. Girl Scouts go to war during the day and become xìng slaves at night. Even if you are pregnant, nothing can change. The saddest thing is that all this is not an accident. It is a common phenomenon in troubled countries.
Li Qi looked at the cāo field in the telescope, where a group of scouts were playing football, a skull, owned by a young girl who had just been cut off by them and wanted to escape. The chéngrén soldiers applauded and blew their whistles to cheer them on. They seem to have received accolades and recognition, and are generally more energetic.
"The first Scouts appeared in ancient Greece. A large number of Scouts were used in the American Civil War. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the British Navy openly recruited child laborers. However, he does not carry weapons and is responsible for carrying supplies. Li Qi lay on his back in the room, pulled back and pulled the bolt of the gun and said: "The United Nations has been established for so many years, it is purely an ornament, and I can't control this thing." ”
Xiao He smiled instead: "Advisor, do you mean that the United Nations used force to force them to convey their values?" Maybe that's how they live. ”
"Hehe, I forgot that doing so would be condemned by people all over the world." Li Qidao: "We will observe for another two hours to see if there are any hostages from the international school inside. The situation is a bit blind at the moment. ”
Xiao He asked: "Do you want to contact Mi Wu or Vice President Ouyang?" See if they have any new information? ”
"No way!" Li Qi said: "They have radar, and they will find people nearby. Since they are so nervous, there must be a reason to be nervous. As soon as we left here, we sent out the news through Migo. Take some photos for the peacekeepers. If this den is to be destroyed, people within a radius of 100 kilometers will be better off. ”
"There is a situation!" Xiao He said.
Li Qi turned over and looked. A jeep and a truck drove up to campus. Two soldiers jumped out of the truck and dragged a man with a large tie out of the car. The male pilot's outfit was probably the one who parachuted out. A guy in sunglasses stands in a jeep and talks loudly. Scouts surrounded the pilot, and someone spat on the pilot. Some jumped up and slapped the pilot. Wearing sunglasses and saying a few more words, children flocked to it. Strip the pilot clean.
"Kill him?" Xiao He asked.
"No, it's a physiology lesson." Li Qi said: "These uneducated blacks always have an inferiority complex and a sense of weakness towards whites. Stripping him naked and humiliating him was a means of enhancing the psychological superiority of the Scouts. ”
"What about the strong x?" Xiao He asked.
"Huh?" Li Qi saw that the Scouts were in a circle, and a slightly taller Girl Scout sat on the pilot's body and slapped the pilot while exercising. The Scouts applauded. The chéngrén soldiers did not hesitate to applaud and encourage. After about a minute or so, the Girl Scout came down and kicked hard at the pilot's second position. Then raise your fist like a victor. The pilot screamed and rolled. Li Qi wiped his cold sweat: "This is the first time I've heard of this punishment. "When a man is at his hardest, it's also when it's the most painful, and that kick can break a boneless little thing.
A jeep drove out of it, and a man with the rank of general on his shoulder appeared. The Scouts stand in salute at the shouts of the Chéngrén soldiers. The general said something, and then faintly heard cheers. Jeep: Two soldiers pulled the pilot, who was still rolling, into the jeep. The general saluted the Scouts and left.
When they arrived at the cafeteria, two topless black men grabbed the pilot's arm and took him to the cafeteria. Li Qi introduced: "This is to extract a confession. ”
Xiao He said: "Head, if I am captured, you will kill me with one shot." ”
"Silly you." Li Qidao: "Listen to the general adviser, you will say that you are a Chinese intelligence agent. Then contact Migo, who will trade your weapon for your life. Besides, you still have Denton's identification on you, and you're a Blood Diamond mercenary. This pilot was treated this way because of his identity and the conflict with the M23. If my guess is correct, he may be from IS or the peacekeeping force. Neither group is popular. I remember that I didn't respect my own life, and I didn't weigh more than ten Mount Tai after death. In the face of life and death, if you should rebel, you will rebel, and don't get along with yourself. ”
Xiao He vomited blood: "Consultant, what theory do you have?" Too utilitarian and practical, right? For example, if we are captured now, will we tell them where we still have members? ”
"Just tell them the false information. Don't be so rigid. Being a mercenary is like this, recognizing money but not people, and seeking life rather than death. ”
Xiao He asked: "If you have to sacrifice yourself or a team member to complete the commission, how will mercenaries generally choose?" ”
"Mercenaries work for money, and sacrifice is inevitable. Are there any people who sell their team members to complete tasks to earn money? Yes, quite a few. A recruit joining the Mercenary is likely to have already been established as a sacrificeable object by the team. Unless recognized by the team, it is considered to be a person who will be helpful to the team. Generally speaking, as a captain, you don't let this happen. Because once this kind of thing happens, the team will basically disperse. No one wants to be in the vanguard, no one wants to go on a dangerous mission. Therefore, teams with more than three years of employment experience will give priority to ensuring the safety of their own team members. Even if you can't complete the commission. Li Qi said: "Many armies have honors, and these honors restrict them from doing things that abandon their teammates. I have seen mercenaries die for honor, but I have not seen mercenaries die for commissions. ”
"Damn, Advisor look." Xiao He pointed excitedly.
Li Qi hurriedly took the binoculars, and saw the back door of the canteen, the location of the mountain. The pilot miraculously escaped and was climbing in the direction of the woods. Li Qi turned his binoculars, and the people outside the cafeteria didn't seem to notice. Li Qi said: "1,200 meters, can you do it?" ”
"Okay what?"
"Support." Li Qi said: "We are currently in a safe state, and we can turn over and march down the mountain quickly. Since this pilot has a chance of survival, we had better help if we can. However, this distance is a bit difficult for me. ”
Xun Xuan was holding a G22 rifle, and he originally wanted to use the PSG-1, but it was too heavy. Xiao He was stunned for a moment and said, "I'...... I do not know. ”
"Try it!" Li Qi said: "It's his life to be able to support." "In the binoculars, a pot-bellied soldier is walking towards the cafeteria. As soon as he pushed the door, he found that the prisoner had fled. Now the pilot only goes up a few dozen meters up the mountain, and the pistol can directly kill him. Not to mention that there are military dogs tracking in the camp.
Xiao He picked up a sniper rifle, and he generally does not carry his own standard weapons in overseas operations, and he is familiar with NATO firearms and Soviet-style firearms. I also used the G22 in training. 1,200 meters, for a professional sniper and this good gun, Xiao He has a 90% hit rate.
Li Qi reported the wind speed, humidity and other data through the telescope, and then waited quietly. The soldier lit a cigarette as he walked, looking like a small leader. The leader in charge of interrogating this section. Twenty meters away, ten meters away. Xiao He still didn't move. Li Qi looked at Xiao He, and he blinked his eyes hard to make his sweat-soaked eyes more comfortable.
But to Li Qi's slight disappointment, Xiao He didn't shoot, he closed his eyes and lay in the dirt, his whole body trembling, as if crying. The little boss finally pushed open the door of the cafeteria and walked inside. Li Qi didn't go to see Xiao He, but paid attention to this little leader. People like Xiao He don't want to be sympathized with or even discovered by others when they have an emotional breakdown. Everyone has a vulnerable side.
