"Colonel, there is an old proverb in the East, no pain, no gain, which means how much effort you put in, how much results you can get, and vice versa. If you want to maximize the benefits, you have to take the maximum risks. !”
"I understand, I will arrange it! The mine will be left to you!"
"Well, let your people expand the encirclement, and leave this place to me!"
Shepard glanced back at the mine, then jumped onto the helicopter again without looking back.
"go back!"
After landing in the helicopter again, Shepard saw several subordinates waiting outside the helipad, and Hannibal was the first to step forward.
"Are we really going to embarrass a group of miners?"
"It's not an embarrassment, it's a solution through negotiation!"
"Isn't that the same meaning?"
"What does that mean? I don't want to use violence against them. It would be best if some things can be resolved through negotiation, but if there is no way, then force is our last guarantee!"
"I see!"
"Don't worry, I won't give the order to fire unless absolutely necessary!"
Shepard looked at the time. It was eleven o'clock at noon. Osaba should not have gotten up yet. After this guy successfully sneaked into the Shadow Company and became a translator, he started to mess around. In addition to being a salaryman and stealing money every day, Otherwise, he would go to a local bar outside the camp to have a drink.
When Shepard kicked open the door of the other party's room, Osaba was sleeping in the dark with half of his body hanging on the ground and the other half on the bed.
Then a bucket of water was poured on it.
Osaba woke up from his sweet dream and was about to speak when he saw Shepard tilting his head and looking at him.
"Are you awake? Go to work when you wake up!"
Immediately, Osaba was stuffed with a set of clean clothes and dragged onto the helicopter, and then the Apple Butter Squadron, which was on combat readiness, also boarded the vehicle and headed to the mine together.
When Osaba learned that he was going to be sent to communicate with the miners, he immediately knelt down to Shepard. After all, he didn't dare to guarantee whether he would be torn into pieces by those guys, while Shepard was all smiles. He told the other person that if he didn't go, he would tear him into pieces first.
"I understand, what do you want me to do? Persuade me to surrender?"
"Let those miners come out and we will ensure their safety. Regarding the previous problems, we are looking for a solution!"
"Then what if they don't listen?"
"My people bring high-power blowers and tear gas. If they don't want to, then I'll make them want to!"
"then what do I do?"
"It's okay, I will send your pension to your family!"
Osaba looked sad, but what else could he say except to beg that the situation would not be too bad.
After arriving at the mine, the place had been controlled by the PMC who had arrived earlier. The snipers and machine gunners were in their respective shooting positions. In addition to slacking off their weapons, the large troops that arrived by car also brought some Eat and drink medical supplies.
Shepard has always been very polite, especially in this kind of negotiation. Preparing a few trivial gifts in advance can avoid a lot of problems. At least with such sincerity, even if there is a problem later, no one will accuse him. .
After the black uncles in the mine heard the noise, they decisively got back into the deep mine. They had no clear target plan. All they could do now was sit and wait in the dark mine.
After placing the supplies at the entrance of the mine, the PMCs immediately withdrew to a safe location, leaving Osaba, wearing only a short-sleeved vest, standing at the entrance of the mine and cautiously shouting inside.
Unfortunately, his voice was hoarse and no one responded inside, so Osaba simply sat at the entrance of the mine and picked up the food on the ground to eat.
Osaba, who had not had lunch at all, ate the jam bread, sausages and canned beans with gusto. Then, there was finally movement in the mine.
A black uncle with explosives wrapped around his body walked out of the darkness with a tragic look on his face. Just as he was about to speak, Osaba, who saw this guy dressed up, screamed and ran out.
Uncle Hei was so frightened that he almost detonated the explosives on his body.
Both of them were startled, but Osaba quickly realized that the other party was not here to blow himself up, so he immediately pointed to the supplies on the ground.
"This is for you, your children and wives will definitely need it!"
Looking at the candies and jam, the tragic expression on the man's face no longer existed, but his eyes were still full of vigilance.
"So, it was the pig head who sent you to make us surrender?"
"Ha, which pig head?"
"Who else could it be? That bastard from Kinshasa!"
"Him? That guy has gone back a long time ago. My boss is John Shepard, the supreme commander of Shadow Company. Have you heard of it?"
Then the man's face became solemn again, and he dropped the box containing the supplies, his tone a little desperate and trembling.
"So, are you here to deal with us?"
"Yes and no!"
Osaba glanced at the sniper at a high place, and after some thought, he decided to take a few steps deeper into the mine, in order to prevent someone above him from slipping his hand.
"Our boss was asked to deal with you, but he knows that you are all forced, so he hopes to end this conflict in a bloodless way! He requires all of you to remove all dangerous goods, go out and surrender, he can Ensure your life is safe!”
"But we know so well that he won't destroy us after we get out?"
"Because if he wanted to kill you, he wouldn't have sent me at all!"
Osaba glanced at the deep mine. He knew that there were many people inside who were listening, so he immediately spoke louder.
"Shadow Company has deployed two combat units. They are carrying tear gas and grenade launchers. These things allow them to easily eliminate you outside the mine. If they wanted to take action, they would have done it long ago!"
"I don't believe Americans can be so kind! He and those officials are all in the same group!"
Someone said this in the darkness.
"He just wants everyone to return to their jobs and continue their previous work. He will solve other problems!"
"Solve it? What can he solve? We work hard, but even survival becomes a problem. Can he make that bastard hand over our wages?"
"How will you know if you don't try?"
Seeing that there was something going on, Osaba immediately hit the railroad while it was hot.
"Believe me, Shadow Company is reasonable. As long as you cooperate obediently, you will never face any difficulties!"
"Believe you, what guarantee do you have? You are just saying good things to white people!"
"Because I can keep you alive!"
