Chapter 115: Covering up a lie with facts
"Kalashnikov is a good comrade! Sack, you've done a good job, that's your pay! ”
"The main thing is that the boss is well led!"
Although he hadn't read for a few days, Sacralar had been with Osaba for a long time, and naturally he had learned the other party's kung fu, and he didn't take the bundle of bills on the table for the first time, but he still had the insight to put it aside.
Since Shepard likes AK so much, why don't you go and shoot two shots?
"Forget it, I've already vomited!"
Shepard put the sturdy and reliable Comrade Kalashnikov back in his place, speaking of which, the Shadow Company did lack a reliable squad machine gun, the M60 was heavy and arrogant, and once it was not maintained in time, there would be a problem that it would not be able to shoot at all, and it would not be able to stop firing.
And to be honest, the problem of light machine guns has not been completely solved by the Americans in later generations, but the Soviet Union next door has given a good answer, and the RPD machine gun has been played out in the hands of the active SOG special forces in Vietnam, and even has the reputation of retreating machine guns.
Well, light machine guns!
Shepard hurriedly took out a small notebook and wrote down what he suddenly remembered, after all, there were so many things he wanted that sometimes he couldn't even remember.
After adding the words light machine gun to the page with the carbine grenade launcher, Shepard closed the small notebook and stuffed it into his pocket, then looked at Sacralar to the side.
"I've never been a person who likes to talk nonsense, and I don't like to do anything to kill my mouth, so this time I will explain your work, I hope you and your men are rotten in the stomach!"
"What live? Boss, didn't you call the brothers to come back and fix it! Aren't you all drinking at the base these days? ”
"Very good, Zac!"
Shepard nodded with satisfaction, it's great that the other party is so sensible!
That's right, the thugs who attacked the town hall were Sacralar and a few of his henchmen, who played a double play with the Shadow Company.
First they disguised themselves as armed thugs to break into the city hall and destroy all the documents about the mine in the town hall, and then in order to avoid the attention of those who wanted to do so, the PMCs of the Shadow Company deliberately used various explosive weapons during the attack, blowing up the town hall to pieces, and then, Zak's people appeared from their hideouts and pretended to be killed and the bodies were removed by the PMCs of the Shadow Company.
That's part of Shepard's plan, sometimes it takes countless lies to cover up a truth, but sometimes, for a lie, it takes countless truths.
The gold mine in the valley was so productive that no one could see it, and the riot gave Shepard a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters, destroying the only information about the mines, and then blasting the other mines, so that when it came time to report the damage, only the damaged mines could be reported.
In this way, even if the investigation is carried out afterwards, everyone's attention will be on the damaged mines, and the gold mines are also concealed because of the asymmetry of information, as for the insiders, that is, those miners, a considerable part of them were let go by Shepard to confuse the public, and the remaining part of the people who knew about the gold mines were taken to the gold mines for temporary seizure, and then, they would work here.
So far, everything is almost ready, but now there is one last and most important thing.
The Minister of Industry knew that the mine existed, and even the gold mine he relied on the most, so he couldn't keep it afterwards!
The other party was in Kinshasa, where the whites were more conspicuous, so the task of monitoring the other party was given to Senerio's men, and when the other party was about to leave Kinshasa and return to Lubumbashi as soon as possible, Senerio's people immediately notified the Shadow Squad sent by Shepard.
This is the South Vietnamese Einsatzgruppen under Shepard, and two veterans from the Green Berets, as the name suggests, they are used to do things that can't be put on the table, and the members have been exposed to these things before, so there is no burden for them to return to their old jobs, and even this time it is easier for them.
After all, there is still psychological torture to carry out black operations in Vietnam, but in Africa, they can fight purely for profit.
Although the team is small in number, the equipment is luxurious, Shepard has a total of four radios on hand, one on their truck, and walkie-talkies, if it weren't for the rarity of night vision devices, Shepard is going to give them a night vision device!
Since the Minister left the city, the Shadow Squad has been quietly following the other party, and the other party has not noticed it in the slightest, after all, in this part of Africa, although the number of cars is small, the style is relatively simple, and most of them have no obvious features, plus the decoration that can be old, so the minister's guards did not notice anything wrong at all.
The tracking team is to contact each other on time every day to inform them of their location.
Shepard wants to kill the Minister of Industry, but he must fish in troubled waters, so American-made firearms cannot be used at all, after all, there are few companies in Africa that can afford to use M16, Shepard shoots the other party with the M16 on the front foot, and the other party can run with a bullet casing on the back foot to ask for the guilt.
But fortunately, he has Comrade Kalashnikov, and the dreadnought steel from Siberia will help him to accomplish this goal, and, in order to make sure that he has nothing to do with himself, he will not even be able to do so in the province of Katanga.
And it will take at least a month to get from Kinshasa to Lubumbashi, so this month is enough for Shepard and Senerio to arrange everything!
Shepard placed the ambush in Kasai Oriental Province next door to Katanga, which is full of rainforests and lacks resources, so there are constant local frictions, and the law and order situation is extremely bad, and the situation of the garrison is even worse than that of Katanga, Senerio also knows to keep some reliable subordinates for himself, and the garrison governor of the next province is eager to even open his own guards, because the military budget is not enough for him.
Therefore, Kasai Oriental is like a sieve, where anything can come in and slip around.
Senerio's men had taken control of a traffic town in Kasai Oriental, which was not an ambush site, but was used to block roads.
In the middle of the town to the next town is a narrow road of about 200 kilometers to the next town, and as soon as the minister's convoy arrives, the garrisons of the two towns will block the road, so that the idlers and others will not be able to enter.
This is also to avoid collateral damage, and Shepard doesn't want to kill people everywhere, it's too risky to do that!
