Chapter 394: Veteran Oil

Before reaching the banks of the White Nile, they could only operate in the Cleaners' sphere of influence, but if the Cleaners did take over the cities along the Nile, such as Malakal and Melut, then they would be on the verge of entering the Cleaners' stronghold.

But Gao Yuan couldn't understand, he didn't understand, why did the cleaners occupy this place, was it just because of the oil?

If it's because of oil, Gao Yuan doesn't need a think tank to know that it's impossible, just because the oil extraction in the Abyye area may not be difficult, but it is too difficult to transport it out, there is almost no infrastructure here, and there is not even a city with bridges, what is the oil extracted for?

If it weren't for the oil, the reason Gao Yuan could think of and understand was because it was far away from the centers of several major civilizations in the world, and precisely because it was remote enough and backward enough, the cleaners would choose this area to settle down, and then operate it as a last refuge.

But this reason doesn't explain why the cleaners are attacking from all sides.

The cleaners took control of the Suez Canal, they took control of the Sinai Peninsula, they fought against angels in Villa, and these actions were by no means an attempt to seek a place of refuge that could explain the past.

When making some tactical decisions, at least have a basic judgment of the strategic environment, now all the people in the Spark squad combined, they don't have as much information as Gao Yuan and Xinghe, and excluding Xinghe as an alien, it can only be Gao Yuan to make the final and most important decision.

The fundamental purpose of this expedition is the Holy Ark, that is, the Medical Warehouse, and the Medical Warehouse is now in Jibuti, if you want to reach Jibuti, and have enough strength to seize the Holy Ark, you must have the support and cooperation of the Ram, if you have a clear enough understanding of this, you must not expose yourself prematurely, and all contact and battles with the cleaners must be avoided as much as possible.

So don't bother with Sirter's tactical differences and entanglements with Ralph.

Takato raised his hand, and Ralph immediately stopped speaking, but Soult didn't see Takato's raised hand, so he was still chattering.

"Have you been here? Do you know how hard it is to walk in the Malakal area......"

Cross nudged Sirte with his hand, and Sirte shrugged his shoulders when he turned around and saw Takato's gesture to shut up, and although his face was full of disapproval, he immediately shut up.

Gao Yuan said in a deep voice: "We are looking for a safe place to abandon the car and cross the river, and absolutely avoid all contact with the cleaners, the reasons are very complicated, I won't explain it to you, but any behavior that may lead to our exposure is absolutely prohibited, okay, let's discuss how to implement it." ”

The tone is set, the route is determined, and the rest of the details are left to the professionals, Gao Yuan is the nominal captain, but until now, all his members have given him enough respect, so he is indeed the de facto captain, but as the captain, he does not necessarily have to deal with everything himself.

When faced with something he is not familiar with and is not good at, Takato's choice is to watch, listen, and not speak.

So it was Li Jingang and Ralph who were teaching Gao Yuan how to be a qualified captain, the captain of a special operations team.

As for Soul, he is an old mercenary, and he is also a veteran oilman, and his combat experience is incomparably rich, and the others together do not fight as many as he has fought, which even Ralph and Yuri admit, and most importantly, Sirte claims to have fought in all terrains of the world.

After several trials and verifications, Sirte's braggadocio was proven not to be bragging, and even Ralph had to admit it.

But the veteran oil must have the shortcomings of the veteran oil.

Compared to Ralph and Yuri, Sirte's biggest characteristic is laziness.

Along the way, Sirte will never participate in the matter of collecting information and making maps, so it is clear that there are people from all over the world, but only three people make maps, because Sirte doesn't do it at all, he is too lazy to do these things.

What kind of people bring out what kind of soldiers, and the soldiers brought out by Knight, none of them are good.

Klaus's nickname is Scarecrow, and he is really a very quiet person like a scarecrow, but being quiet doesn't mean he's talkative, and that doesn't mean he's not a nuisance.

Soule is an arrogant, proud, talkative slut, Klaus is an arrogant, proud, talkative slut, that's all.

But I have to say that as long as the two people with extremely rich combat experience express their opinions, they will definitely follow what they say in the end, just because what they say is indeed reasonable.

Gao Yuan set the tone, Klaus thought for a while, and said slowly: "If you abandon the car and cross the river tomorrow, then you will have to reconnoiter tonight, and all the sections of the river upstream and downstream of at least ten kilometers must be reconnoitred, confirm that there is no enemy on both sides, there is no fixed patrol route of the enemy, and after clarifying all the circumstances, you will decide the location of crossing the river." ”

Ralph whispered: "Ten kilometers, is it necessary?" ”

Klaus said lightly: "It is necessary." ”

Ralph waited for Klaus to explain why, but Klaus was not going to explain.

After waiting for a while, Ralph whispered as he felt the urge to hit someone: "Ten kilometers on each side, I don't think it's necessary to search and reconnoiter such a large area." ”

Soult laughed, he did not hide his disdain, and said: "Boy, you must not have fought in isolated conditions, you will only fight on your own land, this kind of penetration without backup, all the equipment is on your shoulders, and it takes a long time to penetrate, do you know what is going on?" ”

Ralph clenched his fist, his nostrils dilated slightly, but he held back, didn't stand up and raised his fist at Sult.

Soult shook his head and said, "Based on our experience, if you think something might happen, then something will happen, and if we have to walk to find the ram guy, then we'll need days, and we're on the cleaner's grounds, and if they find our abandoned car, guess what they'll do?" ”

Ralph took a deep breath.

Soult continued to look at Ralph with the eyes of caring for mentally handicapped children and said: "What about you, at least don't worry about your back, because your country is small but it has the backing of the state after all, and we, we have to consider all possibilities, if we are going to carry out an infiltration operation that lasts for a long time, then we will never leave anything that exposes the traces, but we have to leave a lot of cars here, we can't burn them, there is nowhere to hide, so we don't expand the scope of investigation, If I had found a safe enough place to handle these cars, I wouldn't have crossed the river and raced on two legs against enemy cars. ”

Ralph whispered, "I'll condense your nonsense into Murphy's Law." ”

Soult shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid you won't understand, so I'm talking nonsense, but do you understand now?" ”

One of the Egg Blasters stood up silently, then Ralph reached out and the soldier sat down silently again.

Ralph took a deep breath and said, "As a full-fledged professional soldier, I agree with your suggestion. ”
