Although most of the biscuits were smashed into pieces during the airdrop, and the ammunition boxes were also torn apart, there was no problem if the packaging inside was not damaged. After all, in this case, there was nothing left to choose from.
The Belgians, who had run out of food, didn't even care about fireworks regulations. They removed the iron plates from their cars, set up a bonfire, put Spam and biscuits on it, used Spam's grease to fry the biscuit pieces, and then added it with the biscuits. The cold water that had just been scooped up from the river was served. Although the meal was simple, the Belgians still treasured this meal very much and ate it thoroughly.
With supplies, the convoy can persist longer, but holding on is never an option. Holding on without support is hopeless. No matter how strong the castle is, without support, it will eventually fall. For example, in the Roman Civil War in 1453, Dongluo lost Like Lu Luo, the Istanbul they defended was ruthlessly captured by Urban's artillery.
Therefore, rescuing the convoy is still the most urgent task of United Mining.
"If only Francois's mercenaries were still here!"
The senior executive of United Mining lamented that his subordinates were cowardly before fighting, and then he was glared at by the people in the same room.
"If it weren't for Francois, we wouldn't be like this. That guy is just a white-eyed wolf who can't get enough to eat. Who wanted to hire him in the first place?"
"Isn't it you who introduced me? That's not what you said at that time!"
Seeing that a bunch of people were about to quarrel over shirking responsibility again, Bowman, who had previously requested a helicopter airdrop of supplies at Shadow Company, yelled angrily.
"That's enough, you pigheads!"
"There are thirteen orders waiting for us to deliver. If something goes wrong, we will have to pay millions in liquidated damages, and the company may even go bankrupt. You don't want to think of a solution, and you are still shirking responsibility here?"
"We don't have much else to do. The company has transferred all its manpower from the entire Democratic Republic of the Congo, but there are three to four thousand niggas there, and we have less than two hundred. How can we survive this?"
"Then how did Shadow Company defeat Francois's 600 men with two hundred men?"
"They, they have advanced equipment. They have helicopters and snipers. I heard the guards who escaped said that each of their rifles has a scope!"
"Since Shadow Company is so powerful, we might as well ask them to take action!"
"Yes, yes, just let them take action, they will definitely be captured!"
Bowman looked at the partners around him and suddenly felt sad. How could the good brothers who were actively entrepreneurship and enterprising back then become such idiots now?
"Since everyone thinks that Shadow Company can help us, then I will go to Mr. John Shepard of Shadow Company again. Then this meeting will be recorded as a formal meeting. In addition, the expenses will also be borne by everyone. !”
After speaking, Bauman immediately stood up and left the conference room without waiting for several people to object.
After arriving at the Shadow Company's station for the second time, Bauman did not rush in. Instead, he stood in the corridor of the main building and carefully observed the Shadow Company's station. Compared with the time when he just took over, the current Shadow Company's station was better. It has doubled in size in the past. Not only have there been more than a dozen completed staff dormitories, but the corresponding supporting facilities are also constantly being improved. And this is just completed. The new airport and training ground are being visited by many prisoners and black uncles. It takes shape little by little with hard work.
And Bowman has seen all this bit by bit. He has to admit that he may have underestimated the Americans, because the Shadow Company built not just a small airport for helicopters to take off and land, but a small airport that can be used in emergencies. A hardened field airfield for fixed-wing aircraft.
Bowman has never seen any mercenary company build this in his own station, unless he is not a mercenary company!
After figuring this out, Bauman suddenly felt that everything that had been unexplainable in the past made sense!
As we all know, Americans have always been eager to have colonies from their European relatives. After all, they started colonization later than Germany. At the end of World War II, the colonies set off a wave of independence. The most active ones were two superpowers. Big country.
As Africa is the exclusive territory of old Europe, it will naturally be targeted by two guys who claim to be representatives of democracy and freedom.
There was a coup in the Democratic Republic of the Congo not long ago, and a coup is taking place in Angola next door, and most importantly, Katanga and the Democratic Republic of the Congo are right next to each other!
At this moment, Bowman was like Sherlock Holmes. Under his brainstorming, he quickly figured out a secret black plan that was deeply hidden and planned for a long time.
A seemingly non-existent American security company marched across a large mining province, driving out all suspicious armed forces that stood in its way, and then secretly built a large airport and a covert operating base.
At this moment, Bowman felt that his little heart was trembling. In his opinion, the PMCs from South Korea and Vietnam recruited by Shepard to save money were black ops personnel used to avoid suspicion, in order to better serve Africa. The airport built by the black uncles to sell free arms from the United States has also become a tool for foreign interference.
Bowman, who had figured it all out, even spoke in a different tone after entering Shepard's room.
"Well, I want to ask, is Shadow Company currently encountering difficulties in the project?"
"???"
Shepard looked at the man in front of him. Didn't he come to find a way to solve the problem of the convoy being besieged? Why are you asking about this?
"It's a bit difficult, mainly because there are not enough manpower, and the work efficiency of the black uncles is very low!"
But since the other party asked, Shepard told the truth, after all, it was not considered a secret.
"That's right, I understand, this is how engineering works in Africa, you have to adapt to the efficiency of the locals!"
"Well, so we use excellent French workers and Belgian workers at high intensity!"
A look of embarrassment flashed across Bauman's face for an instant. Everyone knew where those outstanding workers came from.
"Well, if necessary, we can provide you with more manpower and construction machinery..."
Shepard was even more confused. What on earth did this guy want to do?
"If necessary, we will consider it!"
"That's good. In addition, regarding the team, I understand that you are very busy at work. After all, you have to defend freedom, but I think if you can help us as much as possible, then maybe we can also do it in other places. I’ll help you out, won’t I?”
"So what exactly do you want to say? Mr. Bowman?"
"It's nothing, it's just that I think Shadow Company is actually a very potential partner, so we are eager to reach some deeper cooperation with Shadow Company!"
