Because he couldn't contact Li Tingxuan in time, Liu Wei decided to go to the refugee camp with Srehom to recruit troops. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although Liu Wei did not think of using these people to turn the United States upside down, he thought that in the future, he would have to rely on them to expand the market and help Mobei Wolf expand the drug sales network, and loyalty was very important. As the big boss behind the scenes, it is impossible for Liu Wei to hand over everything to others.

Anyway, I have to wait until I contact Li Tingxuan to know where to go next, so I have to find something to do.

As Sreholm said, there are indeed quite a few "talents" in the camps.

Zimbabwe is a small, landlocked country in southern Africa, with an area of less than 400,000 square kilometres, most of which is located on the South African highlands. Although the natural resources are very abundant, with huge reserves of chrome ore and asbestos, a very developed paper industry, and rich in grain and tobacco, the domestic economic development is extremely uneven, most of the resources are in the hands of the Ndebele people, and the Shona people, who make up the vast majority of the population, are very poor.

The long-standing contradictions between the two tribes are the bane of Zimbabwe's civil war.

The influx of war refugees into South Africa is almost exclusively of the Shona ethnic group, many of whom are adult men. According to statistics from the South African authorities, nearly 200,000 of the 2 million refugees have male surnames between the ages of 20 and 24, in addition to 200,000 young female surnames in this age group.

Because Sreholm came to step on the point, the recruitment process went very well.

In just one morning, in the refugee camp east of Messina, more than 5,000 people signed up, including more than 1,000 women!

What surprised Liu Wei a little was that the physical fitness of these female surnames was not much worse than that of male surnames.

This is also understandable because on the African continent, most of the productive work is performed by women. Zimbabwe is located in the highlands, with an average altitude of more than 1,000 meters in the country, and agriculture and animal husbandry as the mainstay.

The large number of applicants gave Liu Wei more opportunities to choose.

According to his request, 400 male surnames and 100 female surnames will be enrolled, and there will be clear requirements. For example, the male surname must be more than 1.78 meters tall, weigh no less than 80 kilograms, must not have physical disabilities and infectious diseases, and it is best to be able to read and write, at least be able to speak English.

The latter point is basically fine, as Zimbabwe was formerly a British colony and English is the official language.

Recruit mercenaries with female surnames, not to involve them in drug trafficking, but to work as security guards in hotels and casinos, replacing the previous batch of mercenaries with better qualifications.

After a busy afternoon, he finally selected five hundred people who satisfied Liu Wei.

The rest of the things don't need Liu Wei to worry about.

Srehom had already paid off the South African officials who were guarding the camps to get them out of the country. According to the relevant laws of South Africa, they will be granted residency as long as they have worked in South Africa for three years. South African citizenship can be obtained within seven years without a criminal record.

Of course, they will not live in South Africa for seven years.

Because there were so many people, Srehom left behind ten retinues and returned to the ranch on foot with the five hundred refugees recruited.

Before leaving, Liu Wei did one last thing and gave each of them a thousand dollars.

There was no way, Liu Wei only brought so much cash, and could only promise to reward another $9,000 after they passed the rigorous training and got the official contract.

For these refugees, being able to get a thousand dollars without having to do anything is very satisfying.

You know, in Zimbabwe, even the hardest working farmers and herders can only earn a few hundred dollars a year.

This money is enough for their families to buy food in the refugee camp for half a year.

Once you've got the right people, the next thing to do is find the right instructors.

Liu Wei originally planned to let Li Tingxuan come forward and invite a few K1 members to come over. It's just that he couldn't get in touch with Li Tingxuan, so he had to call Batavia and hire instructors from Pakistan.

At this time, Mobei Wolf had already taken dozens of special forces into the Colombian rainforest by helicopter.

After meeting with Zhou Yulong, the two divided the assault force into two squadrons, each with three squads, each with ten to twenty special forces.

The target found by Zhou Yulong is Mendes, the third largest drug lord in Colombia and has always been incompatible with Pedro.

In the international drug market, Mendez is very famous, because this guy has always been at odds with the United States, and the CIA has offered a reward of up to $25 million.

Unfortunately, in the past decade or so, Mendez has not only smashed more than a dozen encirclement and suppression operations by U.S. special forces, but also successfully coped with five assassination attempts organized by the CIA. In retaliation against the CIA, Mendez even organized two raids that killed more than a dozen agents of the CIA's Colombian intelligence station.

There is only one reason why Mendes is extremely anti-American: more than 30 years ago, his parents were killed by the U.S. military who assisted them in participating in anti-reading demonstrations.

At the time, Mendes was less than ten years old.

Before that, he was just a very ordinary teenager, his father was a surgeon in Bucaramanga, and his mother's family owned the largest banana plantation in Colombia, and the family was very wealthy.

After the death of his parents, Mendez was sent to an orphanage, while his three younger siblings were sent to another orphanage.

At the age of sixteen, Mendes left the orphanage to work as a coolie in the grocery market in Bucaramanga. Two years later, Méndez inadvertently helped a drug dealer evade the police, and he has been inextricably linked to drugs ever since. Three years later, after his companion was shot dead by the police, Mendez became one of the biggest drug dealers in Bucaramanga.

Because he saw his companion being shot and killed by the anti-narcotics police, Mendez decided to change careers and turn from a drug dealer to a drug lord.

At the age of twenty-four, Mendes' grandfather died of illness, and he, as the only heir he could find, was given the right to run the banana plantation. The following year, Mendez planted 10 acres of marijuana on the plantation and managed to avoid the sights of the Colombian police and harvest his first pot of gold.

The good times didn't last long, and two years later, Mendes' plantation came to the attention of the police.

Before the police surrounded the plantation, Mendez fled into the jungle with the $15 million he had harvested over the past three years, as well as a dozen loyal retinues, and began his career as a drug lord.

Ten years later, Méndez has become one of Colombia's most famous drug lords.

At its peak, Mendez owned at least 5,000 acres of cocaine plantations, producing at least 1,000 tons of cocaine and 3,000 tons of marijuana each year, according to the CIA.

What's even worse is that this guy only stares at the American market, and even transports drugs into the United States regardless of the gains and losses.

Although after Pedro's rise, the CIA took full advantage of the contradictions between Colombian drug lords, causing Mendes to suffer heavy losses, reducing the area of the plantation to 3,000 acres, and mainly concentrated in the border area between the provinces of Bichada and Guainía near Venezuela, the transportation is very inconvenient, and most of the cocaine produced has to rot in the warehouse because it cannot be shipped out in time, but this guy is tired and does not change, and he still bites the United States without leaving neighboring Brazil and Europe, which has great potential for market expansion.

Conservative estimates suggest that more than half of the drugs that flow into the U.S. from Colombia come from Mendes' cannabis plantations, excluding the drugs Harris gets from Pedro.

For this kind of role, the CIA is definitely the fastest to get rid of.

If Zhou Yulong chooses, he will definitely not move Mendez, everyone is a fellow believer, why kill each other? But this time it is Mobei Wolf who is in charge, this guy just wants to get enough cocaine as soon as possible to meet the huge demand of the American market and make more money.

If the CIA's intelligence is not wrong, there are at least a thousand tons of cocaine in Mendes' warehouses.

That's still a conservative estimate, maybe much more than that.

For Mobei Wolf, this is more than 20 billion US dollars!

Unlike Pedro's estate, Mendes' lair is more secluded, and the vegetation is so well preserved that it is difficult for reconnaissance planes to spot.

What's more, the perimeter of the manor is very tightly guarded.

In addition to hundreds of armed guards, dozens of machine-gun fire points were set up, and there were minefields up to 500 meters wide and three barbed wire fences around the estate.

In terms of defensive deployment, this is not a drug lord's manor, but a military stronghold.

"I've been in, and there's an intricate network of tunnels inside." Zhou Yulong unfolded the map and said, "The entrances are distributed in all corners of the manor, and the situation in the tunnels is not very clear, but it must be very complicated. If you want to catch Mendes and find the warehouse where the drugs are hidden, you have to fight quickly. The Yankees attacked the area three times, and although they occupied the manor three times and destroyed all the above-ground buildings on the manor, Mendes slipped away three times and returned to continue the business after the Yankees left. As soon as the gunshots rang out, he would surely slip away from the tunnels. ”

"That's easy, the two of us go in first, and the others are on standby outside. Capture Mendes, then attack and take out the guards in the manor. Mobei Wolf had expected it and said, "If everything goes well, the battle can be ended in two hours, and then it will take two hours to transport the drugs." ”

"That's all I can do."

"Go and prepare, and start in five minutes."

There is nothing to prepare for, and with the ability of the two of them, there is no difficulty in sneaking into the manor.

After carefully crossing the minefield, drilling through three barbed wires, and passing through the cordon on the periphery of the manor, Mobei Wolf and Zhou Yulong subdued the two armed guards and changed into guard clothes.

Most of the buildings on the estate are built on the terrain, and all of them are timber-framed houses.

In order not to be discovered by the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft of the US military, iron nails were not even used on the buildings, and all the most primitive construction methods were used.

Mendez's residence was a two-storey, cylindrical wooden building, with guards on the first floor and his residence on the second floor.

The two did not go through the main entrance, but climbed up from the outside of the wooden building.

Because Mendez's wife and children also live here, there are no guards on the second floor.

The light was on in the study, and the two cautiously touched it.

After Zhou Yulong stood in the position, Mobei Wolf kicked open the door, but then stopped, because Mendes was not the only one in the study!
