"There will be a farewell for you for a thousand miles, so let's say goodbye here. If you have the opportunity to come to our small and remote country, you are welcome to come to my home. Hopefully, by that time, peace has been restored to our country. After speaking, the guide sent a warm hug to Hugh and Katyusha, respectively, and his companion waved to the side.

Hugh and Katyusha then walked in the direction of the exit from the basement.

"If you need to come back, the shop is looking forward to your next visit." Behind him came the voice of an arms dealer.

"Definitely, may good luck always be by your side." Hugh and Katyusha turned and smiled, then disappeared into the basement entrance.

The two returned to the ground, started the jeep, and before they had gone far, on the corner of a block, a stateless armored car crossed in front of them, and the soldier on it flashed the dark muzzle of a heavy machine gun, and through the loudspeaker, said loudly in English: "Please lay down your arms, do not put up useless resistance, you are surrounded." As soon as the words fell, several armed men with loaded guns came out of the armored vehicle, judging from their dress, they were dressed in various ways and did not look like government troops, they were scattered around the jeep, controlling the situation on the spot.

"Please open the door slowly, put your hands where we can see, and don't take chances." The other person's voice came again.

"Or let's get out of the car and destroy them." Hugh didn't want to be caught.

"Wait, it seems to be ** armed, or we pretend to surrender and enter their interior to see what is going on, anyway, with your and my skills, it is easy to escape halfway." Katyusha looked at the situation and said calmly.

"Okay, we'll do what we do." After saying that, the two opened the car door, raised their hands high, and stepped out of the car in the posture of surrenderers, and were soon controlled by the armed men around them, their eyes were wrapped in black strips of cloth, their arms were tied with ropes, and they were pushed forward.

After an unknown time, they came to a building, which was the police station of the former town, and the two of them were taken behind an iron gate, where the strips of cloth and ropes in front of them were untied one by one, and the iron door behind them was then slammed shut.

After a while, a familiar voice sounded in my ears: "Hey, look at what you guys have done?" Hurry up and release our handsome guys and beauties. ”

Hugh and Katyusha looked up, only to see Olivia the driver appear in front of them, with Louis the Demoman standing beside them.

"How could it be you?" Hugh was incredible.

"It's a long story, come out and talk about it." The armed men on one side opened the iron door, and Olivia beckoned them out.

"Olivia and I had just arrived in this country when we were caught up in the crossfire. Found a ** armed man who had been shot and fell to the ground, bleeding constantly, he looked at us in despair, fortunately the part of the bullet did not hurt the vital point. At this time, the soldiers of the government army were searching for him, and the ammunition of his gun in his hand was exhausted, and he was unable to return fire to the enemy. Louis said straight to the point.

"We dragged the wounded soldier into a civilian house and found an infantry mine on the battlefield, which Louis dismantled, drawing on his extensive blasting experience, and then took a detour to a hardware store in the rear block to tinker with it and turn it into a remote-controlled bomb. Set it in the area where the enemy is active. Olivia added.

"So we stayed there, waiting for the enemy to come to the door himself, get into the range of the explosion, kill several enemies, and obtain their weapons. Then wipe out the remnants. And the wounded man we rescued happened to be the deputy commander of the ** armed forces in this stronghold. He was very grateful to us for saving our lives, and after seeing our extraordinary skills and briefly understanding our background, he decided to hire us as the first armed instructor to pass on the combat experience to the soldiers. Louis flashed his instructor's epaulettes and said proudly.

Hugh rubbed his sore hands bound by ropes: "We just arrived here and bought some guns and ammunition from the arms dealers, and before we could play them, they fell into your hands, but we are a fraud, and it is clear that it is not the soldiers of the government army who captured us, and we came in just to see what is going on and understand the strength of the ** armed forces." ”

"None of us expected to be able to mingle with the ** armed forces. It seems that there is providence in the dark. Olivia said. In this country, since there are ** armed forces, why not unite their forces to help us complete the task? Hugh suggested, and then saw a look of approval on the faces of his companions.

"By the way, how is the wound on your back?" Katyusha looked at Louis's back with concern.

"A little skin trauma, not enough to worry about, it's almost better. Originally, they didn't want me to participate in this mission, so I stayed at the organization base to recuperate. I was planning to send my former instructor Lula on a mission, but the thought of this permanent scar made my heart linger for a long time, and I wanted to take this opportunity to take revenge. Louis lifted his back, revealing a deep wound 60 centimeters long.

"Hey! When will this impatient nature of revenge be changed? Olivia teased.

Louis scratched his head embarrassedly: "Let's go, I'll take you to meet the commander of this stronghold." After speaking, he led the crowd forward.

An open hall is presented in front of everyone, this is the office hall of the former town police station, and now it has been transformed into a temporary combat command center for the first armed force, stacked with all kinds of weapons and ammunition, communication equipment, and dozens of soldiers with guns are on guard on the perimeter, vigilant for the enemy's every move.

Inside the hall, several communications soldiers are using encrypted channels to send battlefield messages to allies in another stronghold. On a large single sofa, an elderly officer, bare-chested, with gauze wrapped in the front of his chest, a trace of blood flowed out of the wound, slowly oozing through the gauze, and he gulped the brandy in his hand, trying to dilute the pain of the wound with the help of alcohol anesthesia.

Seeing Louis and the others, he was about to stand up. was pressed down by the female medical guard on the side: "Sir, don't move, the wound has not healed yet, and the wound will become infected if it continues for a long time."

"Commander, don't get up, this is our comrades-in-arms, Hugh and Katyusha, they are all like us, they have extraordinary combat capabilities and rich battlefield experience, this time with us, our combat effectiveness will be strengthened." Olivia recommended the two to the commander.

"I am the commander here, and I warmly welcome you to come, the recent situation is not too optimistic, due to the suppression of the opponent's heavy armored firepower, we have lost one after another on the battlefield, and there have been heavy casualties, at first there were more than 170 people, and now half of them have been lost. The armored car that I just bought from the foreign ** fire dealer has not found a suitable driver, thanks to God, Olivia brought it to us, and taught our soldiers hand in hand, so that they can skillfully drive it and play its role. The commander waved his right hand and greeted the crowd.

But this action quickly involved the wound, and the pain made him grin. The medical soldier on the side frowned helplessly, took off the old gauze on his wound, and replaced it with a new gauze: "Don't move again, sir, nothing is more important than your healthy life and leading everyone to defend this place."

"Yes, yes, I will listen to you." The Commander promised, his expression like that of a child who had done something wrong, looking uneasy and remorseful.

Looking at the actions of the commander in front of him, Hugh sighed in his heart: "After all, he is a commander from a civilian background, and there is still a big gap compared to the government army in terms of military literacy. ”

Hugh stepped forward and said to the commander: "You can rest here for a while, and my comrades and I will go out for a walk to familiarize ourselves with the environment of the battlefield, and come back later."

"Okay, stay safe, do you want to equip you with a few soldiers?" The commander asked with concern.

"No need, we can take care of ourselves, please rest assured." Katyusha took over the conversation and left the temporary combat command center with the others, and came out into the street.

"What is the combat mission of the armed forces here?" Hugh asked Olivia on the side.

"Defend this place and cut off the enemy's supply lines. This small city is the main transportation artery in the southern part of the country, and it is a battleground for soldiers. In the early stage, the ** armed forces relied on the numerical superiority to occupy this place. But now that the government army has received equipment assistance from the United States, an armored unit temporarily formed has eroded the advantage of the ** armed forces guarding here. Olivia walked as she kicked the small rocks on the side of the road.

"Understand, we can only sympathize with their situation, and our priority now is to go to the hotel and kidnap that CIA agent and stop the enrichment of uranium trade." Hugh bowed his head and fell into deep thought.

"There are still a few days left until the transaction. There is more time to spare, and there may be a need for them in the future, or we will help them first, and then rush to the mission location, so as to win the trust of the ** armed forces, deepen each other's feelings, and facilitate the development of later tasks. Katyusha suggested.

"I think it's okay, the enemy's group of small, once Uncle Ben makes his debut, all of them will have to die." Luis the Demoman has a look of aspiration.

"The enemy in the vicinity has three US main battle tanks, and the equipment that has just been aged and retired is not advanced, and it is not very outstanding in terms of firepower and armor. Our side has a Russian Ka-52 helicopter gunship, but only one 30-mm caliber Type 2A42 mobile automatic cannon, which lacks laser-guided anti-tank missiles; There is also a German Weasel infantry armored vehicle, armed with a 20-mm cannon and side-by-side machine guns, don't expect to hit a tank with it. If there is enough anti-tank equipment. I am confident that I will lead the drivers I have trained to launch a full-scale counterattack. Olivia planned.
