On the morning of the third day, the black uncles finally reached an agreement, and immediately after breakfast, they began to attack the convoy.
There was no artillery preparation and no reserve team. The black uncles from various tribal forces were pulled out to form a commando team with not too bad equipment. Then after the tribal witch doctor gave everyone the buffs, the black uncles They howled like wild horses and launched a charge.
Although this time they gathered elites and had witch doctors to help out, the actual battle situation was the same as yesterday. Someone would lie down when the gunshot was fired, continue to charge when the gunfire stopped, run away when someone died, and run back and charge again.
Therefore, everyone fought fiercely all morning, with single-digit casualties, but the number of exercise steps was ridiculous. Shepard, who was watching the excitement from behind, even suspected that the black uncles were here to hold a sports meeting, which made him nervous the most. The ones who live here are the black uncles who joined this unique competition after the third day.
They did not bring weapons, but were pushing carts or driving animals. On the carts were pots and pans. They did not come here to participate in the war, but set up simple stalls on the edge of the battle to serve others. People sell snacks like dried fish pancakes.
The battlefield has been in a stalemate like this. United Mining wants to protect the company's property and can't leave if they want. The black uncles can't eat it if they want. Everyone can only continue to be in a stalemate back and forth. But outside the battlefield, the situation is Something is wrong again.
Since the convoy was besieged, the executives of United Mining have been having trouble eating and sleeping. Because the transportation routes have been blocked, more than half of the ore they have mined has been backlogged. If they cannot deliver the goods, the partners will not pay them. They earn Without money, they couldn't pay their subordinates, which led to a vicious cycle. Therefore, they couldn't care about anything else at the moment and immediately organized manpower to try to rescue the team.
But when United Mining searched everywhere and finally assembled an armed force of more than 200 people, they found that Uncle Black's number had reached thousands. The rescue team they assembled was frightened and refused to go out.
So United Mining had no choice but to go to the garrison commander. In order to get the other party to help, United Mining's lobbyists went to great lengths to give the other party a check, a mansion, and a wife. As a result, Colonel Senerio accepted the money. Instead, he sent one of his infantry battalions to help. As a result, the infantry battalion had to rest after marching less than twenty kilometers every day. Two days later, they were still a hundred kilometers away from their destination.
United Mining has even asked the government to intervene, and the Belgian government has been tough this time. They immediately put pressure on Mobutu through diplomatic means and asked Mobutu to resolve the matter as soon as possible. However, thanks to the poor performance of Mobutu's government The level of administrative governance and chaotic cabinet management, the effect of diplomatic pressure is not obvious, and may not even be as fast as the infantry sent by Senerio.
However, it is worth mentioning that United Mining seems to be serious this time. They directly persuaded the government to put Francois on the international wanted list, and the charges are to harm Belgian citizens and plunder property, and the corresponding documents have been It was given to France, which means that Francois is really famous this time!
"The Belgians are offering a reward of 200,000 yuan for his capture. Will he live or die?"
Shepard, who also saw the wanted news, immediately had an idea. If the matter is so big, someone must be responsible for everything in the end. If this is the case, he can only ask Francois, his beloved relative and friend!
"Give him good food for two days, and wait until the Belgians are over, you know!"
Shepard called his South Vietnamese non-commissioned officers. They were more skilled in this kind of work and more loyal to Shepard. It was perfect for them to do it!
The plight of United Mining has not improved, and the convoy has even begun to run out of food. They have been besieged for five days, and the compressed biscuits and other food they carried have been almost consumed. The reason why they have not collapsed is because of Uncle Hei's Fear, if the opponents were Germans, they would have given the French military salute long ago!
In order to prevent the situation from getting worse, United Mining finally had no choice but to send people to the Shadow Company's camp, trying to get Shepard to take action at a fair price.
But what made the person in charge sad was that Shadow Company was not interested in their arrival at all, and even sent a Korean soldier who could not understand English to receive him, but he himself could not understand Korean and could only look at him with a smile. At that dentist Shanke and wash it all Roman!
The person in charge understands this. After all, we were enemies before, but now, the entire Democratic Republic of the Congo has no power that can be entrusted. Although there is a French mercenary in Angola next door led by Bob Denard, he is Mobutu. The government's wanted criminals are unable to come to help. The only thing they can count on is Shadow Company, or in other words, Shadow Company's two Huey helicopters!
In order to make Shepard relax as much as possible, the person in charge also brought some gifts this time, which were the same as those given to Senerio. They were two gold bars of standard weight, refined by their factory.
But such an expensive gift was declined. The person in charge drank two full pots of boiling water and ate four bowls of pickles before finally waiting for Hannibal, who gave a concise and clear answer.
"Shadow Company is peace-loving and we will not open fire on unarmed civilians!"
"But this conflict was caused by Francois. If you let him go, don't you have any responsibility?"
"His legs are on his body. He can go wherever he wants. You might as well reflect and reflect on why that guy is looking for you instead of others, and why those black people don't attack other convoys, but only surround you. !”
Hannibal's weird words made the person in charge dumbfounded. He wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that what the other party said made sense, otherwise he couldn't explain why his family was being beaten.
"Please take your gifts back!"
"Wait a minute, if you can't provide military support, then we can always rent your plane, right?"
"Rent a plane?"
"Yes, drop some supplies for our people and we will pay five times the price!"
Hannibal raised his eyebrows, then hesitated. When he heard coughing from outside the room, he nodded.
"I want to be up front if there is any damage to the helicopter!"
"We'll pay for a new one!"
"Okay, we agree. However, I think your company still needs to reflect on it. After all, many times, a slap will not make a difference!"
