Early the morning after I arrived at the station, I went our separate ways with Milk and Yugovich. I took the oil bottle and Vurich to the abandoned barracks five kilometers away.

The barracks was built on a hillside, accessible only through the entrance. It reminds me of Pablo's house, the big house where there is only one way to go up, and of course the secret passage is not counted.

We went up this uphill road, and I looked at the uphill part of the road that was about two hundred meters away, not very wide, barely enough to walk two cars side by side. However, the condition of the road is very bad, and it is estimated that it has been caused by the war, which has brought out potholes and water in some places.

The gate of the barracks has long since disappeared, and there is not much left of the row of walls next to the gate. When we entered the barracks, most of the houses inside were dilapidated, some of them looked like they had been burned by fire, some of them had collapsed roofs, and many more of them were more or less mutilated, not to mention bullet holes.

I walked around the barracks and found that it was much larger than it looked down there, and that the barracks was divided into four main areas, all of which were surrounded by a row of buildings on the edge of the playground in the middle. This row of buildings is estimated to be used for offices, meetings and communication, and there are six or seven houses in a row. The playground is now overgrown with weeds, some of which have grown to almost a man's height. The entire barracks is connected to each other, and the barracks between each area are also accessible to each other, as long as you enter a certain area, you will enter a place that extends in all directions, your left and right sides, front and rear have roads leading to other directions, and rows of the same buildings are easy to give people the illusion.

"No wonder those two people are hiding here against the Count." I said, pointing to the left and right, "If you enter here rashly, it is easy to take care of the beginning and the end, and capture one place and find another place and there is a lot of gunfire." If it is used well, it will not only allow the people who come in to disperse their forces and lose the direction of the main attack, but also kill and injure the opponent very well. ”

The oil bottle looked at me and said, "Then you are going to move here?" ”

"Nope. We can't afford to lose the place where we are stationed. But here... I think it's useful. I said and looked at Vurich, "Which of you has ever worked as a construction worker?" ”

Vulich didn't react for a moment when he heard my question, he looked at the oil bottle and then at me, "Okay. I think there is. But are you going to renovate this place? ”

"Haha. He plans to turn it into a resort. The oil bottle said with a smile.

I smiled and gestured here, "This will be our refuge." Who knows if the Earl will already be dealing with us. What if he's too strong and there's no one to support us? That roadside nest must not be able to hold it, you should be able to see that. So what do we do? You can't run back to Serbia while shouting for help like a lost dog. ”

"You're going to turn this into a bunker?" Vulich asked, looking a little surprised.

I glanced at him, turned my head and looked at the oil bottle again, "Defensive operations are most suitable for the weak side, not only is it easier to unite people's hearts and make them able to hold on, but it is more convenient to inflict great damage on the stronger side." "He and I guarded a house in Colombia that belonged to a big warlord there. There were at least two or three hundred people who came to hit this house, and how many of us were? There were fifty or sixty people who could hold guns. And the other party still quietly crossed the outskirts of the sentry post, and came over without us being fully prepared. But what is the result? ”

"How did it turn out?" Vurich asked with interest.

The oil bottle looked at Wu Liqi and smiled: "You should know if you see that we are still standing here." ”

"No, no. I mean, how did you and your enemies end up fighting? Did you beat them back? ”

"Knocked back. The opposing side organized several attacks, although their own men suffered heavy losses. But the other side withdrew after heavy losses. I said, gesturing to the barracks, "I'm going to renovate this place, and if necessary, we're going to retreat here and fight the enemy here." As for what to change, I haven't figured it out yet, so I'll ask if you've ever worked as a construction worker. ”

"I see. I'll do this as soon as I get back and find everyone involved in the building. Vurich said.

"Hmm. Keep it quiet and try to keep it low-key. I don't need any professionalism, I don't want to build a house to sell, I just need to know some basic knowledge. With that, we looked around the barracks again. Actually, I want to make good use of this, with our current personnel and equipment, I don't have the confidence to be able to fight a real landlord. Although Ivanovich's remnants chose to work with us, how long have we actually been together? I guess there were no more than three meetings in total, and some of them only met when we went to their station. There is no understanding between us, there can be no trust without understanding, and how can we fight together without trust? Without cohesion, once the battle situation is passive, something will definitely happen. And now I am relying on the earl, twenty kilometers, and they will come over at the time of a meal, what will I do then? So I had to find a way out for myself, and fighting a prepared defensive battle in a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack was the best option. That can not only protect yourself well, but also increase the confidence and cohesion of the whole team while constantly killing and injuring the opponent, and more importantly, defensive warfare has been more confident than offensive since ancient times. That's what it means.

After spending the morning "touring" the barracks, we returned to the station. Vurich immediately went looking for someone who had done construction-related work. And I and the oil bottle went out of the station again after a short rest after dinner, and circled around the station. To the southeast of our station, that is, on the side near Kosovo, are the deserted mountains and mountains, and on the northwest side is the main road of transportation, which is also the gate of the station. The terrain of this barren mountain range is simple, there are not too many ups and downs, but there are more trees and lush vegetation. Although we have set up checkpoints in this area, if someone is well prepared and slowly infiltrates, these checkpoints are still difficult to detect, and even if the alarm is raised, the other party is actually very close to us.

"We must build a ring of defense around the perimeter of our barracks." I pointed in the direction of the station, "Otherwise, when someone comes from the woods, the bullets will go straight to the station." ”

"What if I come straight from the road?" Drag the oil bottle asked.

I shook my head, "The targets on the highway are too obvious, that's equivalent to a target, if you were to attack this station from the road?" Fastić and the others had fortifications on both sides of the road, and although they were relatively rudimentary, one or two machine guns were enough to keep a large group of people from advancing on such a bare road. ”

"So what are you going to do here? There aren't many of us, so you're not going to go around, are you? "Drag the oil bottle road.

I pointed to the station, "Just build it on this side of the woods, set up a section in the southeast corner, then a section in the southwest corner, and build another one behind these two sections." "Remember, I'm not going to put too much effort into this, that abandoned barracks is where we're going to fight to the death." There is only time for me to react and shift. ”

"Is it too late? I mean, the Count or whatever, is going to give us time? "Drag the oil bottle road.

In fact, I don't know the bottom of this in my heart, and now the most threatening should be the earl, but he should have suffered a lot of losses in the operation before, it is a person who always has to take a breath, I hope he can take a little more time to breathe, if it really can't work...

"Let's prepare with all our might, if it's really not an opponent, then we can only retreat to the Serbian side while fighting." I said.

"Hearing you say that, I don't think it's easy to retreat then." Drag the oil bottle asked.

I smiled, "You'll know then." After saying that, I looked around, "Let's go, let's take another look and go back." Talk to Milk and Jugovic about what we think, and we've got to hurry. ”
