"Hannibal!"

"Don't look at me, the Shadow Company isn't God!"

"We paid our salaries, and Shepard and I had a deal!"

"There's an agreement, but it's not like that, so many regular troops can't stop it, you count on us?"

"I have more than 300 mercenaries here, and they are all under your command, in addition to some UNITA troops and South African troops, we are not without the strength to fight!"

"There are now about a thousand people retreating from New Lezhbe, and I only hope that these people will be evacuated safely, as long as they can enter the southern forests!"

"Well, who made you the boss!"

Hudson came to Hannibal in the hope that the Shadow Company could once again act as a fulcrum, the edge of the Cuban armored forces is unstoppable, and the strongest combat power must be selected to compete, and the whole ***, now the few combat strengths, only those mercenaries who are still resting in the rear.

As for the rest of the South African and UNITA forces, they were deployed to the western and eastern fronts early on the SPLM when the MPLM launched a full-scale offensive, with UNITA being the last remaining seaport city on one side and the most important economic hub on the other, as important as Nova Lizhba.

Therefore, at the moment, the only thing that can be mobilized, and the only thing that can be counted on is these mercenaries, and the South African army is making an urgent move, and as long as they can secure the crucial days, then UNITA can once again stabilize the front.

As a result, the Shadow Company could only go out again with all its strength to try to rescue the retreating personnel from the front line.

Of course, this is not for the Shadow Company to go to the front line to fight alone, Hudson has gathered a total of more than a thousand people, and he wants to use these people to block the attacking Anren Movement army in the southern hilly area, the battle line is more than ten kilometers long, so it needs some teams that can fight to stabilize the defense line, and the Shadow Company is his trump card.

After a forced march for a day and a night, the coalition forces finally reached the southern hilly zone one step ahead of the enemy, where the terrain was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the armored forces had only one mountain pass to break through.

The Shadow Company and those mercenaries are in charge, and this is naturally this mountain pass!

As for the rest of the place, only through the infantry, then those infantry will be handed over to the UNITA army and the South African army to deal with!

Although it is said that mercenaries fight tanks, but in fact, whether it is a shadow company or a mercenary, they are actually not badly equipped, South Africa has also sent its newly developed Honey Badger 2 armored vehicles, these wheeled armored vehicles have replaced the original 20mm cannon and Milan missile launcher with a 90mm semi-automatic cannon, and when firing heat armor-piercing shells, they can penetrate 320 mm of homogeneous armor steel within 500 meters.

Although it is not a serious tank, it is barely enough to fight tanks, not to mention, the Shadow Company has a big killer move.

Hannibal was the first to arrive at the preset battlefield, but after a cursory survey of the terrain, he already had a rough battle plan in mind, and the next thing to do was nothing more than to implement this plan!

With the previous battle, Hannibal has also accumulated a lot of prestige in the mercenary team, so he has not encountered any obstacles at all to get the command of all mercenaries, and even many mercenary groups are willing to accept the command of the other party, after all, qualified commanders can let more people survive on the battlefield.

As soon as the defenders arrived by truck, everyone began to dig intensively, and in the meantime, remnants of the army were constantly defeated like frightened birds through the valley.

These people have the remnants of South African armored soldiers, as well as UNITA troops and mercenaries, although their identities are different, but their shapes are no different, from New Lezhber to the mountain pass more than 200 kilometers, during which there are swamps, rivers and grasslands, and it takes a lot of effort for vehicles to pass, not to mention the army in a state of rout.

Most of these people had haggard faces, disheveled heads, and unclothed bodies, no different from beggars on the roadside, and their weapons and equipment had long been lost.

The trucks that were originally responsible for transporting building materials to the defense line immediately had an additional task, which was to evacuate them

The remnants of the defeated soldiers will be sent back to *** for rest.

Shepard, who had come to the front line with him, waited for two days at the pass, but did not see any sign of Bob Denard, and he thought that this guy had died under the cannon of the Cubans, but on the third day, a decent looking convoy arrived at the pass, and it was Bob Denard and his few men on board.

On the way to escape, Bob and his men directly and unceremoniously requisitioned friendly vehicles, and hurried all the way to the mountain pass.

Seeing the limping Bob Denard (he was injured in the leg by artillery in the early years of the coup d'état in the Democratic Republic of the Congo) appeared, Shepard, who had changed into a combat attire, immediately took the lead and then enthusiastically held the other party's hand.

"Oh, I've finally got you, Mr. Bob, get your men into position and join us in stopping the Cuban army! After all, you're a UNITA war hero!"

Thirsty and tired and speechless, Bob Denard could only look at Shepard with an aggrieved gaze, in terms of dignity, he wanted to tell the other party that he didn't need their help, but realistically, his men were short of guns and ammunition, exhausted, and it was simply unrealistic to expect them to stay and participate in the battle.

He could only moisten his throat with saliva, and then said in a hoarse voice.

"I'm sorry, my people can't fight anymore, so I'll leave it to you after the break!"

After saying this, Bob Denor immediately slumped back into the car, and then let his men continue to move forward, and the remaining mercenaries of the Boer Defense also drooped their heads, not even daring to look at their colleagues who were building fortifications.

"The king of mercenaries in Africa doesn't seem to be very good!"

Hannibal, who was carrying a shovel, looked at the former's distant figure and immediately teased. Look at the book

"The times create heroes, and they just become bears against the trend, that guy is also a capable person, but his fate is not good!"

Shepard pleaded to the other side, the forces of both sides of the war are there, winning or losing, and there are results long before the battle breaks out!

"So, that's why didn't you let us participate in the defense of the city, you knew we wouldn't be able to defend it?"

"Nonsense!"

"Can we hold on today?"

"Nonsense!"

Shepard gave his old subordinate a kick. Then he said angrily.

"Victory or something, we have to come!"
