"Okay, that guy landed safely!"
"This way, even if we all die, at least there will still be someone at home to take care of us!"
After receiving Shepard's telegram, Hannibal felt relieved. Although he and his more than a hundred brothers had not yet left safely, those brothers who had returned were enough to continue supporting the company.
Of course, that's what he said, but if there was really a chance to escape, Hannibal would still be happy to run away. After all, who doesn't want to live?
Although nearly two hundred people have been evacuated, there are still many people waiting at the airport. In addition to the remaining two hundred mercenaries and CIA agents, there are also a large number of civilians and random guys.
After the MPLA troops entered Luanda, the officials, police and even military members who had served in the former colonial government could not sit still. Although the MPLA had no intention of cleaning up, on the contrary, they were trying their best to maintain the city. order, and require these former officials to come out and continue to run the government and other institutions, but there are always some guys who have guilty conscience and start running away.
So like dominoes, when a guilty-minded guy starts to run away, many guilty-minded guys will soon follow, and then those guys who are not so guilty but are ignorant will also follow.
When the People's Liberation Army troops rushed towards the city, there were still huge flows of people and vehicles on the same road going against the direction of their march. Under the leadership of Soviet instructors and Cuban instructors, , the MPLA soldiers did not intercept the flow of people leaving, but took the initiative to make way for them.
"Let these guys go, it's best if as many of them go as possible!"
Major Garcia couldn't be happier at the moment. As a vanguard, his troops captured enemy positions one after another. The number of enemies they wiped out in one day was equal to that of the past year. Not to mention that he also got a mission of great symbolic significance, that is, as a soldier. The vanguard planted the red battle flag on the roof of the Luanda government building!
To this end, the MPLA troops that secretly marched to Luanda also brought with them more than a dozen journalists from Warsaw Pact countries. They would use their cameras to record every publicity-worthy shot.
As for those guys at the airport, it is no longer important to Major Garcia. After all, the flow of people leaving the city has nowhere to go but to the airport. Those are not hundreds or thousands of people, but people on the street. Ten thousand people, so many people, can not only seriously hinder the transportation capacity of the Americans, but can even be used as propaganda materials. If the combat troops rush over and exchange fire with the enemy at this moment, they may accidentally injure civilians!
And with so many civilians there, the Americans can't destroy the airport. Now, they can only be trapped in the airport, like little mice scurrying around on a red-hot iron plate!
To be honest, Major Garcia's judgment was indeed correct. The few remaining defenders at the airport were indeed very anxious. Civilians were pouring in continuously. If the defenders had not used barbed wire and bayonets to pull out the blockade, the runway might have been blocked by now. The road was already crowded with people who wanted to evacuate, but Garcia also underestimated the potential of people in anxious moments. Hannibal and Charlie Martel seemed to have suddenly opened up the two channels of Ren and Du, and thought of a pretty good one. Solution. Z.br>
They first called back the ANLF soldiers stationed on the outside, and then asked these soldiers to act as guards and security guards at the airport. Moreover, Hannibal did not forget to tell these guards when assigning tasks that the next batch would There happens to be a vacancy on the next batch of transport planes. As long as they work hard, they can get priority on the next batch of planes!
This method of drawing big cakes was a sure thing for the illiterate ANLF soldiers. Everyone from the soldiers to the officers believed in it and immediately started to act according to Hannibal's instructions.
Charlie Matt and his mercenaries took the time to make a few simple wooden boards and wrote words such as boarding gates on them. Then, the mercenaries gave these signs to the security guards. FRELIMO soldiers and asked them to lift them up on the east side of runway one and two, and then the flow of people who wanted to board the plane was also diverted here. When civilians saw this operation, they thought they had planes here. There was a long queue waiting on runways one and two.
and
At this time, Hannibal will also ask the P's of Shadow Company to appear on runways 1 and 2 in the form of patrols to maintain order. In addition, the group of men led by Agent Hudson and the mercenaries who can speak the local dialect will use The few remaining cans and water were distributed among the crowd, giving everyone a sense that they were trying to solve the problem.
After a few days of such operations, everyone will be substituting one another, handing over the weapons and equipment in their hands to the other party in the name of Armed Liberation Front soldiers, while constantly pretending to be wounded and being carried to Runway No. 3 or 4.
During this period, Hudson also kept telling the locals that the transport plane would come to transport the wounded immediately after evacuating the wounded. After all this work was completed, almost everyone thought that the transport plane would come to pick up the wounded from Runway 1 and 2 later. They left, and the transport plane on runway 3 and 4 came to pick up the wounded.
So, when the last two transport planes landed on runway 34, the crowd at the airport did not panic at all, but began to cheer, because according to the Americans, after the transport planes took off and landed on runway 34, it was the turn of number 1 and 2. Runway of them!
No one even noticed that the patrols and sentries had changed their skin colors and faces. Anyway, they looked pretty much the same.
Hannibal and his men, plus a group of mercenaries and agents, took this opportunity to throw away all their burdens and squeezed as many as possible onto the transport plane. In order to transport everyone, even many small people The mercenary was directly lifted above his head by his teammates.
After confirming that all personnel were present, Hudson immediately sent a signal to the captain, who immediately closed the cabin door and then controlled the plane to take off. At this point, all the Shadow Company P and mercenaries stranded at the airport were successfully evacuated except for the dead. , and those FLF soldiers were dumped directly at the airport, and they didn't even know they were abandoned.
It wasn't until late in the evening that anyone noticed something was wrong, because they had been waiting for almost four hours and still hadn't seen any sign of the transport plane, and the white people who had distributed food and water before were also missing.
Sensing something was wrong, the ANLF soldiers immediately searched the entire airport, but only saw a large amount of arms dropped by the former in the warehouse and a note saying sorry.
