In less than half an hour, more than thirty trucks of supplies were transported, and then the convoy left with a rumble, which was so fast.
Standing on a hillside not far away, looking at the convoy going away, a bearded man named Ahmed flashed his eyes slightly. After a few seconds of silence, he turned to the old man with a white beard next to him and asked road:
"Teacher, which country or force do you think they may belong to?"
Regarding this question, the old man with the white beard said without thinking:
"Libya!"
Hearing this answer, the bearded strong man Ahmed showed a surprised expression on his face, and then said:
"Libya? That's unlikely, isn't it?"
"They have no reason to do this. After all, this batch of supplies from the American major was transported to the Baduk rebels in Tanzania, and Libya once assisted Uganda in invading Tanzania. They are enemies!"
"Now that there is a war in Tanzania, shouldn't the president of Libya be watching the joke in his palace? Why should he pay such a high price and help Tanzania's official forces without leaving any reputation or benefits?"
"It makes more sense to me that they are Tanzanians."
Regarding this question from the bearded strong man Ahmed, the old man next to him smiled and said:
“Enemies and friends are a constant process of transformation.”
"We were once enemies, but now we can be friends. We were once friends, and now we can be enemies. In the past, Libya assisted Uganda in invading Tanzania. It was determined by the situation at that time. Now they hire us to attack the rebel supply lines. It is also the situation." decided.”
"In fact, in my opinion, regarding this operation, Libya cannot help Tanzania officials at all. It's just that their purposes overlapped at a certain time!"
“Since that general came to power, Libya’s relations with Western countries have become increasingly tense, even to the point of incompatibility. He expelled the US military base in Libya and nationalized the properties of Western companies in Libya, which has offended the entire Western countries.”
"Now, Libya's neighbor Egypt has begun to turn to the United States last year."
"Next, if Tanzania's official troops are also captured by the rebels, then it is conceivable that the United States will also control Tanzania. Under such a siege, do you think the president can sleep well?"
"With his personality, it's no surprise that he would react in any way."
Hearing the old man's eloquent analysis, the bearded man Ahmed suddenly understood. After thinking for a few seconds, he asked:
"Teacher, I seem to feel the beginning of some change."
"And what benefits can we gain from this change? What should we do?"
In response to the question from the strong man Ahmed, the old man with the white beard smiled and then said:
"We are still too weak to participate in these big events, but we can also hide in dark corners, do some small things, and slowly promote something, such as assisting Libya and disrupting this transportation plan."
"The Baduk rebels, who lack weapons and equipment, must not be able to resist the attack of Tanzanian official troops who receive a lot of support from China."
"If our actions can thwart the United States' occupation of Africa, it is also an important step, isn't it?"
"However, no one can be sure whether those people are lying. We still need to see for ourselves how strong this transport team is. If we can fight, we will fight. If not, we will run!"
"Worst, we still get so many weapons and gold, right?"
"When the time comes, we will move directly so they can't find it. Even if they find it, we won't be afraid of them here!"
Hearing what the white-bearded old man said, Ahmed, the strong bearded man, smiled and said:
"Although I don't think as much as the teacher thinks, this is the point."
"Our master and disciple have the same idea. If we can fight, we will fight. If we can't fight, we will run. Anyway, the legs are on us."
"They are no match for us here!"
After the bearded strong man Ahmed finished speaking, the white-bearded old man smiled and nodded and said:
"That's right, but my analysis may not be all correct."
"Maybe your idea is right, maybe they are Tanzanians, maybe, but no matter what, always staying rational, thinking, and questioning is the key to our survival."
"It's getting late, let's get ready to go!"
Then the two of them walked in front, followed by two guards, and walked down the hillside. Just halfway, they saw a man wearing a gray-black robe, an old military green tactical vest on his chest, and an armed belt around his waist. , with a turban on his head, a thin young man walked up. His skin was light yellow-brown, and he had a delicate appearance, especially his bright yellow eyes, which were particularly eye-catching.
"Brother, grandpa, those strangers have left."
"The weapons they brought are really interesting. The muzzles of the guns are so big. I have never seen them before!"
"The bullet is even more terrifying. I just watched Uncle Mori and his colleagues test-fire it. The power is amazing, but unfortunately its recoil is too great and I can't use it!"
"I love it, but it's too heavy!"
The young man's voice was crisp and full of vigor, with a childish flavor unique to his age. He was carrying a grenade launcher and said this. Just as he finished speaking, the bearded strong man Ahmed said with a smile:
"Fariel, this is not a gun, but a grenade launcher!"
"So what you have in your hand is not a bullet, but a grenade. We have been trying to buy similar weapons from the black market in the past, but we have not been able to buy them. It has the same effect as a grenade, but it shoots farther. Do you understand?"
"But this time, the grenade launchers we got are different from the previous ones, because they are continuous grenade launchers. They are said to be very powerful. I had heard of their reputation a month ago."
"Originally, I had contacted our informant and hoped to buy some from the black market in Khartoum, but unexpectedly, someone came to my door!"
"By the way, I have a gift for you!"
Hearing what the bearded strong man Ahmed said, the young man suddenly became excited and walked down the hillside carrying a grenade launcher with a wheel about the same size as his head.
At this moment, countless tents throughout the valley have begun to be packed up and loaded onto camels and carts, as well as a small number of cars. They looked like they were about to move. Several people walked into the big tent just now.
"Actually, it was brought by the group of strangers just now, but this is the only one, so I'll give it to you!"
"This is it!"
Ahmed, the strong bearded man, said this as he picked up a long box from the side and placed it on the table with a bang. Under the smiling expression of the white-bearded old man and the expectant eyes of the young man, he opened the box. .
Inside is a rifle that is completely black, but the caliber is so large that it makes people tremble. It is a grenade sniper rifle!
"Don't you like this kind of weapon? Although you can't use the individual grenade launcher, I think there should be no problem with this. Prone on the ground, as long as you control the posture of holding the gun well, and there is a tripod to share part of the recoil, you should be able to It’s ready to use!”
"And it is said that the range of this gun can reach a terrifying two kilometers!"
"The SVD sniper rifle you had before can be given to others. From now on, this grenade sniper rifle will belong to you!"
"By the way, there's also this!"
Having said this, the bearded strong man Ahmed rummaged through another box for a moment and found a high-power lens that looked quite exquisite. He handed it over with a smile and said:
"American goods, I have looked far away and gave them to you!"
At this moment, the young man looked at the grenade sniper rifle that was erected almost to the height of his neck. The excitement on his face was beyond words. He nodded vigorously and said:
"You are truly the best brother!"
"Thank you for the gift, I'm very happy!"
At that moment, seeing the young man dancing happily, the bearded strong man Ahmed and the old man with white beard looked at each other, and saw that they had quite doting looks in each other's eyes.
At this moment, the young man held the huge rifle, pointed at the inscription on the barrel and asked curiously:
"Brother, grandpa, what does this mean?"
"What kind of writing is this? I have never seen it before?"
Hearing the boy's question, the two of them looked at where he was pointing. Finally, the bearded man Ahmed coughed slightly in embarrassment and explained to the boy:
"This is Chinese writing, meaning 'grenade sniper rifle'."
As soon as these words came out, the old man with a white beard next to him said with a dumbfounded expression on his face:
"Nonsense, Fariel, don't listen to your brother, he doesn't know Chinese."
"The inscription on it is 'Honorary product of Laiyang Red Star Mechanical and Steel Complex·Long-range fire grenade launcher', which is not a grenade sniper rifle at all!"
"This is consistent with previous rumors. It is said that the weapons from this factory are exported for civilian use."
"China, a country with an ancient history like Egypt, has really started to get excited again in this era! A factory that is only qualified to produce and export civilian products can actually design and produce unprecedented, world-class weapons."
"It's really unimaginable!"
"For us, we can't even produce the most common rifle. We have to buy it at a high price on the black market, or rob it with lives and blood from other armed forces through fire."
Speaking of this, the old man with the white beard seemed to have thought of something sad, and the strong bearded man Ahmed also sighed and said:
"We have to have a piece of land."
"Only the land allows us to truly take root and sprout!"
At this moment, hearing the content of the conversation between the two closest to him and the expressions on their faces, the young man looked down at the thick barrel of the gun in his hand, silently remembering the special string of words on it, and at the same time, in his heart Couldn't help but recite silently.
"Laiyang Red Star Machinery and Steel Complex"
Local time, 2 p.m.
Under the blazing sunshine, the valley that was originally crowded with tents and earthen houses was now empty. A team of nearly 20,000 people, including young adults, women and children, then split into two teams and headed in different directions.
The team going to the east had many cars and small trucks, all of them capable young and middle-aged soldiers, while the main means of transportation for the team going to the southwest were camels, livestock, various carts, etc. Most of them They were all women, children, and the elderly, with only a few young and strong guards.
Under the scorching sun, the two teams began to rush wildly.
Local time, five o'clock in the afternoon.
The armed force, which was mainly composed of young men, finally arrived at the outskirts of the area revealed to them by the man in the suit. They jumped out of the car and the bearded man Ahmed quickly issued his order:
"Now let's rest and eat to replenish our strength."
"Don't light a fire, and hide our vehicles after eating. We can't believe everything they say. We must be the most cautious, because if we can't go back, our families won't survive this dry season!"
"After the vehicle is hidden, a few people are left to guard it, while others walk into areas where fighting may develop to ambush."
"Do you understand everything?"
In response to Ahmed's order, the soldiers present nodded, but no one said a word. It was obvious that they were all veterans of fighting, and then they dispersed to prepare.
Twenty minutes later, a team of nearly two thousand people began to move forward on foot. Their heaviest and most powerful weapons were the gas tanks they carried and a dozen grenade machine guns. There were also some mortars and There are very few RPG rockets and the like.
It can be said that if it were not for the batch of supplies just now, their firepower would be simply pitiful. They only have a few small-caliber mortars, a few RPG rocket launchers, various grenades, and the rest are various rifles and bolt-action rifles. There are mainly semi-automatic ones and not many fully automatic ones.
"Almost, this is the location!"
"Everyone starts to hide, the sentinels leave here, and spread the investigation!"
"In case the intelligence given by those strangers is wrong, the target suddenly appears from behind our butts!"
After arriving at the location described by the intelligence, Ahmed began to arrange an ambush battle. In fact, this place was very suitable for an ambush because the entire area was mountainous and there were various hillsides that could be used, and the convoy must travel in the valley. People on the flat ground cannot walk on the mountains like people.
Local time, 7 p.m.
At this moment, the sky has begun to gradually darken, and the last sunset has sunk under the mountains. At this moment, a short black man with bare feet rushed over. He was very fast and came to Ahmed. He gasped and said:
"Chief, the target is here, just fifteen kilometers away. They are walking along the valley and will arrive soon."
"But they are very vigilant, and there are people on the top of the mountain accompanying them for reconnaissance."
"If we want to completely ambush, it will be difficult!"
"And their security personnel are not as few as those strangers described. There are at least 800 people and at most a thousand people."
"Chief, what should we do?"
Under the gaze of everyone, Ahmed's expression turned ugly, and he couldn't help but curse:
"Damn, son of a bitch! Bitch!"
It was obvious that there was something wrong with the intelligence over there. The man in the suit said there were five hundred people, but there were at least a thousand people here. It was obvious that they did it on purpose. If Ahmed hadn't been cautious enough and sent out a sentinel, Otherwise, if you directly ambush here, you will definitely be discovered by the opponent's investigators first, and eventually you will be entangled in a melee. When the time comes, you will have to fight or not, until the last drop of blood is shed!
After a few seconds of silence, Ahmed waved his hand and said:
"Let's retreat back, first leave the detection range of their investigators, and then decide whether to launch an attack based on the situation. Let our sentinels be careful not to be discovered by the other side."
"Go! Get out of here quickly!"
It has to be said that Ahmed's combat command ability is indeed very strong and he made the most appropriate choice in the shortest time. However, this may also be the result of natural selection. After all, those wandering armed forces like to be reckless. , are all dead.
Soon, the soldiers retreated, further back to the hillside. This was a position where they could advance, attack, retreat and defend. They could kill the scouts first, then charge as fast as possible, occupying the high ground and attacking the valley. If the convoy retreats, you can also stand still and wait for the convoy to pass. Unless there is something wrong with the scouts, it is impossible to go around and see if there are any enemies behind the mountain, because this is beyond their defense zone, and coming here will destroy the forward formation.
Next, one piece of news came back after another. Faced with the target's caution and alertness, Ahmed was almost giving up the raid. At this time, a sentry ran over quickly and gasped:
"Chief, they are not leaving. They seem to be setting up camp to rest and eat!"
At that moment, Ahmed's eyes lit up, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to the sentry:
"Determine the location of their scouts."
"We took a detour and took off my shoes, trying not to be discovered by them."
"action!"
Following Ahmed's order, under the cover of night, the soldiers of this unit took off their shoes one after another. Without shoes, there would be no sound when stepping on stones, and the soles of their feet were already covered with a thick layer of calluses, so they were not afraid of pain at all!
