I let out a long sigh of relief as I watched this group of NATO mercenaries leave along the road. I have never had the experience of speaking so close to my own enemy, and standing face to face with a clear sense of their hostility or even murderous intent. I think that guy must have sensed our strong hostility towards him as well. I didn't talk about the experience before, but I never thought that one day I would stand like this with the person I wanted to fight for my life, listening to the other party's various threatening words.

"Be at peace with the Count? It's. Milk began.

I looked at the team in the distance, "This is obviously helping the Count." Now it is estimated that the situation of the earl is not very good, and the continuous battles should have brought him no small losses. Otherwise, that guy wouldn't have specifically instructed us to say this at the end. ”

Milk looked at me and said, "You mean the Count is in a bad situation?" ”

"It's definitely not going to be good. These people can't be as simple as persuading each other, right? If it is really from a peacekeeping point of view, why not send vehicles and teams with the UN logo? Let these people with that kind of weird flag come here to pull the shelf. Anyway, you don't have to bear any responsibility, and it's easy to shirk if something really happens. It just so happens that these armed groups are also troublesome in the eyes of many people, and it may be easier to die more. I said.

"So what are we going to do? Honestly obedient and stay here without moving? Milk listened to me and thought for a moment.

I looked at Milk's expression and could tell that he wasn't at peace. No one will be reconciled? These guys don't take us seriously at all. That posture actually wants to deal with us, but he doesn't have time at the moment, so he can't take care of it, and he will clean us up when he is free. Who can easily forget the person who comes out to do things with a gun?

"Then shall we organize the manpower and wait for the subsidence to have some fun for the Earl?" I asked in a low voice.

Milk looked at me and said, "Isn't that too risky?" At this time, the point can be more memorable. ”

He said that, but I could already tell his anticipation in his facial expressions and in the way he looked at him. I laughed and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Venture? When have we not ventured. When it subsides, normally at the point in time you just mentioned, most people would think it's safe, but isn't this just an opportunity to be surprised? You just say you don't do it. ”

"! That's what I'm here for. Milk clapped his hands and shouted.

I looked left and right, "Be quiet." Then it's decided. Pick a few good hands and let them get some rest. But I don't think we need to rush. It's going to be over there for a while. Before, we went to Vukovic and they found out what was going on here. ”

Milk nodded and said, "Do you think these guys will kill Ke Qiman directly?" ”

"I don't know. Maybe they have such a plan, maybe they don't, after all, we also suspect that Kochiman has a connection with these guys or NATO. But whether it is or not, Kochiman should have been ready before the gang arrived, so there should not be a situation like we did in Kosovo. I said.

"And what about the people brought by Milic? Do you want to convince them to do it together? Milk then asked.

"Nope. Can't take them. First of all, this time we must have been a small force activity in the past, and the big ones were too big in the past, and it was easy to be targeted by people when the movement was big, such as the group of mercenaries, although it is estimated that it will be a matter of time before they are beaten, but it is definitely not now. Then Vukovich and these people will not follow us to attack the Earl again, the collector told me something like this, if the Count calls, they will help us, but take the initiative to attack, they will not do it, at most support our weapons. At the end of the day, it's because people don't trust each other enough to join forces to attack others. So let's ask them to go back to their respective homes when the time comes, so that they may be better able to cover our actions. I said.

"You're acting like you're going to be a gang, and you don't think you're going to attack anything, are you? Shall we tell them about our plan of action? Milk asked.

I nodded

"Who knows if anyone is watching the situation here?" admitted. The plan can't be told to them, or that sentence, we don't know each other well enough, even if a few of them can be relied on themselves, what about the people in their team? Messages must not be leaked. ”

"Okay. So what are you waiting for? Let's talk to Vukovic. We really should hurry up and fight a few eye-catching battles. Otherwise, if you want to unite with others, no one will want to deal with us. Milk quickened his pace and walked towards the station.

When I entered the garrison, Milk and I went our separate ways, and he went to select men, while I invited Vukovic and the others to the barracks, and when Milk returned, I asked Vukovic about his Count.

Vukovic looked at me and then at Milk, and after a moment he smiled meaningfully as if he saw something, and said, "The Earl, whose original name is Salish, is now five years old Chinese New Year's Eve. It's an Albanian in Kosovo. Having served in the Yugoslav army, he joined some militant groups in Kosovo at the time and started an independence movement when the country was in turmoil. After the Yugoslav civil war and Kosovo's declaration of independence, Salish took advantage of the chaos to develop his ranks and participated in the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) and the Yugoslav government forces at the time. At one point, he led his team to fight very bravely, and his reputation began to grow from then on. But they would have all been wiped out, and these Albanians in Kosovo, no matter how brave they were, could not beat the Yugoslav Serbs, but NATO came. Speaking of this, Vukovic smiled helplessly and continued: "The funny thing is that Yugoslavia is over, and the Kosovo Liberation Army is also over." Some of them became the regular army of the Kosovo government, others went to Macedonia, and the Counts, like the Counts, took the mountain as kings and sat in bandits. Some people used to wonder, wonder how a person who was so radical and brave in battle at the beginning could become a gangster, he should have a great pursuit. I couldn't figure it out at first, but then I got to know a guy who was also an Albanian, but this Albanian was an Orthodox Christian, and more importantly, this man had been in Salish's ranks, and was Salehi's guard. This man told me that the reason Salish is the way he is is actually very simple. They have different political views and interests. ”

Milk said with a look of surprise: "I heard me right, a gang still has political opinions?" What is he going to do? ”

Vukovic wasn't upset by Milk's interruption, but smiled and continued, "Salehi wasn't originally a bandit. And his idea is the annexation of Kosovo to Albaria. ”

"Merger? This is too much, the Serbs will definitely not agree. I looked at the others and whispered.

Vukovic nodded and said: "Not to mention Serbia, even Kosovo cannot unify this kind of thing internally." More people are in favor of their own independence as a nation. So it was divided, and Salish took the people to occupy the mountain as king, and no one bought his account. ”

I shook my head and said, "No." He should buy the Albanian account. Doesn't Albania support such a person? ”

"Maybe. But on the surface, there is nothing to see. Salish is just doing a lot of illegal business, and no one cares about him for the time being. Vukovic said.

"Okay. We have a chance to study these political positions, and I now want to know what kind of armed forces this guy has in his hands. Milk asked.

Vukovic looked at Milke and said: "I don't know about this period of time, after all, their recent actions have been more frequent, and I don't know if the losses will be for a while." But before that, all I knew was that his men numbered about four hundred. Among them, there are about 200 armed personnel who have been used for fighting for a long time, and there are about four armed organizations or gangs that have been recruited by him, and these four are relatively large, adding up to about 300 people in total. The most combat-ready of them were Salehi's own guards, thirty people. Most of these thirty people were with him early on against Yugoslavia, trusted each other very much and fought very well. There was also a group of stragglers hired at great expense, numbering about fifty people. These fifty people are also very powerful, and these eighty people are the most elite force of Salish. ”

"That means that the scale of the fierce battle on the Earl's side may now exceed a thousand?" I asked in surprise.

Vukovic thought for a moment and said, "Probably not." There's no way Salish can bring everyone in to fight, and it's impossible for the armed groups that come to throw all their belongings into it, and they have to leave some people to watch over their nests.

Some of Salish's armed men also had to protect his business. But this time it's not a small one. ”

"Where do these people who are hired by him come from? How experienced are these guys? Loyal to the Count? Milk asked.

"Everybody. Croats, Albanians, Serbs, and some outlaws, supposedly, on the Adriatic side. These people should be relatively capable, otherwise Salehi's experience and current power would not have supported these people in vain. But loyalty, I can't say. But for now, these people are not bad. ”

"I see. So where did his weaponry come from? Smuggling or is there someone to support it? Milk then asked.

"Smuggling. The Count's armament is actually good. To put it simply, he has what we have here, and he has everything we don't have. There are not only Russian-made equipment, but also weapons used by many NATO countries. In particular, his guards and the fifty hired men were particularly well equipped, almost the same as the NATO mercenaries we just saw. Vukovic said.

"Hmm. Can you draw a general topographical map of the place? We wanted to know the general layout there, the road conditions and their general armament. I spoke.

Vukovic looked at me and then at Milk, smiled and stood up, "No problem. Do you want to start drawing right away? ”
