Lieutenant General Romeo Dallaire from Canada sighed with a worried look at the chaos in Kigali, the capital of Rwanda, outside the camp of the United Nations peacekeeping force. Dallaire is the commander of the United Nations Rwandan relief peacekeeping force, but his troops are very small, and after the withdrawal of the most elite Belgian peacekeeping force, he has only about 300 soldiers from Canada, Ghana, Tunisia, Bangladesh and other countries. Relative to tens of thousands of militias and a mob of more people, it doesn't do much at all.

With these 300 men, Dallaire could not command them to confront the local militia and save the Tutsis and moderate Hutu who had been abused. Moreover, the 300 men came from different countries, and their enthusiasm for the whole incident was also different, and the soldiers of many countries refused to participate in the occasion of direct combat with the locals, fearing that they would be retaliated against, thus affecting themselves.

"When will reinforcements arrive?" Dallaire asked the staff officer next to him.

The staff officer looked at his watch and said, "The Chinese said that they have organized a mechanized rapid reaction brigade, with the 43rd Division of the Airborne Forces and a number of Chinese Marine Corps units already in place, will attack Kigali, according to the approximate schedule they sent us, they should launch an attack in two hours, by this time, the main mechanized rapid reaction brigade should have begun to be airborne somewhere outside Kigali." ”

Because the action was going smoothly, and Qi Yiming was thinking about ending this **** quickly, he increased the weight again. The mechanized fast reaction brigade sent this time will also be transported by the air force, which is actually a red police unit, and it is more complete in equipment than the airborne troops who came in a hurry, although it is unlikely that such a thing as a tank will be shipped immediately, but this red police fast reaction brigade is equipped with a lot of MIFV multi-functional infantry vehicles, and there are many models, including the air defense type of the Vulcan artillery weapon station, the 105 assault gun type, and the common infantry type, which can meet a variety of combat needs.

The entire Red Alert Rapid Reaction Brigade is not large, with only about 3,000 fighters, and they also carry a large number of weapons and ammunition supply boxes, about 100 MIFV multi-purpose infantry vehicles of different modules and a large number of airborne assault vehicles.

From the point of view of African countries, this force can be regarded as terrifying. They were airdropped about forty kilometres from Kigali and then simply assembled. Because the Rwandan defenders in Kigali basically have no ability to stop the large-scale airborne landing of the Chinese, the air defense capability is almost none, and there is no good way to face such a situation. They simply don't know how to launch a surprise attack before the Chinese airborne rapid reaction brigade has completed its assembly, in order to reverse the disadvantage. This is also due to their limited organizational capacity.

When the Brigade completed its emergency build-up, it immediately launched an offensive in Kigali, the capital of Rwanda and the home of the extremist government. They were accompanied by Chinese airborne troops and marines who had already arrived in Rwanda earlier, some of whom had arrived hundreds of kilometers away, in animal carts, or even on foot. Being able to maintain strong combat effectiveness in such a harsh battlefield environment makes people awe-inspired.

The Rwandan government forces still resisted in Kigali to a certain extent, and they set up some defensive means such as barricades and barricades to prevent the Chinese army from entering Kigali, but the direct fire of the 105mm assault guns equipped with the Red Alert Rapid Counter Brigade could easily blast anything that blocked their advance to pieces. In the past, the fierce and vicious Hutu militia were all silent after seeing such a real war scene, and some even threw away their weapons and fled for their lives without firing a shot.

Fighting against this group of militia and almost militia government forces, there was no technical content, they did not have the tenacity to fight, and even after the collapse of morale, no one dared to hide to the side and let go of the cold gun, but fled barefoot. Kigali became chaotic, Chinese troops appeared in all three directions, and the armored units of the fast counter brigade were advancing very fast, not at all like a breakthrough in the city.

The Hutu-dominated Rwandan government, knowing that the tide was turning, hurriedly left the buildings of government offices, either surrounded by bodyguards and soldiers, or simply disguised as civilians in an attempt to escape.

Soon after, the Red Alert Brigade joined the United Nations Rwandan Relief Peacekeeping Force in a closed area in Kigali. Canadian Lieutenant General Dallaire was so excited that he walked out of the barracks and shook the hand of the commander of the Rapid Reaction Brigade, and said warmly: "Thank God, thank you, your arrival has saved countless lives, and I express my most sincere admiration and praise for your righteous actions!" ”

The Canadian Army lieutenant general from Quebec is also a legend in another face. When he took over as head of the peacekeeping force in early '94, he saw that the Rwandan government was preparing to purge the Tutsi and submitted a report to the United Nations. After the massacre really broke out, with the United States and other Western countries unwilling to support, he led only 300 peacekeepers to negotiate with the Hutu government in Kigali, and controlled the main Tutsi refuge areas, and finally when the Tutsi-led Rwandan Patriotic Front captured the capital Kigali to end the massacre, he and his peacekeepers saved more than 20,000 refugees, which can be called a modern Shawshank.

It's just that such a man of good deeds is ranked 16th among the greatest Canadians in Canada, and the Americans give him a Medal of Honor, and there is no greater honor. On the contrary, such as a sunspot who bombed seven countries for six years in power, an "intellectual" who claimed to colonize China for 300 years, and a monk who remotely controlled the believers after exile, they can all win the Nobel Peace Prize, but they don't look down on this Canadian.

Dallaire watched the majestic armored forces drive through the city and expel the extremist militias and government forces, and muttered, "This nightmare is over!" ”

Although the whole massacre lasted only a few days, it was a nightmare experience for the immersive Dallaire. He had witnessed the slaughter of innocent lives, the humiliation of young women, the horrific blood, and the ugliness of human nature, and he could not do much about it. It was a relief to see the Chinese troops stationed in Kigali today, and although it was not him who stopped the massacre, whoever stopped it should be commended.

In the end, none of the main government officials and cabinet ministers of the Hutu ethnic group ran away, even if they were mixed with the civilians, they were finally identified, and they will be tried in The Hague as war criminals for ****** crimes, although the influence of the Hague International Tribunal in China is limited, but Qi Yiming feels that there is no need to fight for everything, and sooner or later the so-called international organizations that uphold justice will gradually be dominated and influenced by China.

China sent troops to Rwanda to save the humanitarian crisis in order to expand its reputation, and when this reputation and image rise to a certain level, it can naturally react to more fields.

After the Chinese army seized Kigali and dismantled the Hutu-dominated extremist government, and shut down the extremist radio stations that played a major role in the massacre, the Chinese army appeared to have turned into a gendarmerie and law enforcement team, and in Kigali and other parts of Rwanda, a large-scale search for the masterminds and executors directly responsible for the massacres was not of sufficient rank, but they would not go unpunished and would be tried and punished by the new government.

The leader of the Rwandan Patriotic Front, Paul Kagame, arrived in Kigali to meet with Chinese Lieutenant General Fang Zhongzhong and the commander of the United Nations peacekeeping force, Lieutenant General Dallaire. In the original plane, although the United Nations still sent peacekeeping troops mainly French troops in the middle and late stages of the massacre, the main force to end the massacre was the Tutsi armed forces led by Kagame.

However, at this time, most of Rwanda was controlled by the Chinese army, and the Chinese army was still under the authorization of the United Nations, Kagame did not dare or have the ability to drive the Chinese away, and could only accompany the smiling face to negotiate with the Chinese how to deal with the aftermath. And Fang Zhongzhong is not stupid, in order to show his neutrality, he invited the commander of the United Nations peacekeeping force, Dallaire.

"My country, which adheres to the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, is not interested in interfering in the internal affairs of Rwanda. However, if Rwanda needs China's help in the process of national reconstruction and the restoration of political order, China has an unshirkable responsibility and is willing to assist. Fang Zhongzhong said.

Kagame was so unenlightened, and hurriedly said: "Chinese friends have made a lot of contributions to the action to save our country and our innocent people, our people have great respect for the Chinese government and army, and the friendship between China and China has lasted forever, and we are very grateful that China can help us in the post-war reconstruction, and we are also willing to deepen cooperation with China in many aspects!" ”

Kagame is also a very clever person, he glanced at Dallaire and said: "The rebuilt Rwanda hopes to develop bilateral relations with all friendly countries in the world, and it is also in urgent need of support and help from other countries." ”

Although Dallaire is grateful to the Chinese for saving this humanitarian disaster, he also has mixed feelings about the situation in which the Chinese continue to operate in Africa. Even if Dallaire is not an American, he is still a soldier trained under more traditional Western values, and the rise of China will inevitably lead to the fact that the "democracy, freedom, and human rights" that he has traditionally adhered to will be slowly replaced by the values that China admires and that have proven to have made a significant contribution to the development of the country and society.

It's just that at this moment, neither Fang Zhongzhong nor Kagame has the heart to take into account the complicated mood of Dallaire, and they still have a lot of work to deal with. Kagame needs to come to power, and the Chinese need to have a pro-Chinese government here. It's also an instant hit.
