Chapter 40: Questions
"Africa?" Lin Rui said with a slight frown.
"Yes. An ancient land, the origin of mankind. However, it is also a land of suffering and plunder. Great famine, out-of-control disease, and constant war. Michelle sighed and said, "Where there is war, we have business." So some say Africa is a paradise for mercenaries. But I don't see it that way, it's probably a big market, but it's the other extreme compared to heaven. β
Jiang An frowned slightly, "So, we're going to Shen Island?"
Michelle glanced at the somewhat thin young man, nodded, and said, "Fernandez will take you there." I have completely handed over the details of the final stage of the training camp to him. Among you people, I'm actually most worried about you, Jiang'an. It's going to be completely different from what you've been doing before. After all, this time, you're no longer a secretary sitting in an office. Rather, as a warrior. β
"I'm a born warrior. Although I may not have the body of a warrior, God gave me the heart of a warrior. Shogan smiled slightly, "I'll miss you, boss." β
Michelle smiled slightly and didn't say anything more. With Kishi as his secretary, I've been with him for a few days. There is a tacit understanding between them. He knew what Shogishi wanted, and he was determined to fulfill his ideals as a warrior.
Michelle is a man who does what he says. That night, he invited these team members, including Lin Rui, to have a meal together. A Chinese restaurant in Volgograd, where the dishes are not much, but they are truly Chinese. This is also the first time that Lin Rui has eaten standard Chinese food since leaving China.
Ivan was a bit overly obsessed with Chinese food, and he even ate a share of three people by himself. This British man, who has the sequelae of war trauma, seems to be able to forget jΓ¬ a qiΔ at this time, and even smiled rarely.
The restaurant was facing the Volga River, and Lin Rui stood at the window looking at the night scene outside, stunned.
Shogishi patted him on the shoulder, walked over to his side, and said with a smile, "It seems that the two of us should have a drink." Because of the previous assessment, there should be some unpleasantness between us. You don't say it, but I know it. It's not a pleasant thing to get you beaten up. He brought a wine glass to Lin Rui and smiled, "According to Chinese tradition, this is called harmony wine, which is to release the suspicion." β
Lin Rui took the wine glass and said calmly, "You don't need to explain, you and I are acting on orders." A lot of things, we don't have a choice. It's like duckweed on the Volga River, where the wind blows, it floats and drifts with the current. With that, he picked up his glass and drank it all.
"You don't look like a person who goes with the flow. Shogan smiled slightly.
"A lot of people don't look the same, including you. Who would have thought that a person like you would be so sick. Lin Rui shook his head and didn't say anything more.
Shogan smiled as usual, "I'm used to it. However, from another point of view, a limited life can make people's lives more fulfilling. I grew up knowing that I didn't live long, so I was studying alone while others were wasting time having fun. With the best theoretical grades, I was favored by the best military academies, and I was even called to the Campaign and Tactics Research Laboratory. But I knew that I couldn't be a soldier. But luckily I met Michelle, I can't be a soldier but at least I can be a fighter. β
Lin Rui nodded and said, "I understand that everyone has their own beliefs. It may seem like a waste of time to outsiders, but often the person concerned thinks it is important for himself. β
"Forget it, I don't really want to talk about that. Shogishi shrugged and said, "What do you think about going to Africa?"
"Nothing. As for you, you seem to know a little bit about that place. Lin Rui looked at him and said.
Jiang An smiled a little exaggeratedly, "That place in Somalia? haha, the most disorderly and chaotic place." The warlords fought for years and years, starved everywhere, bandits were rampant, and pirates were rampant. However, it is also the most unregulated place, where mercenary companies are not subject to any restrictions. The more chaotic the area, the greater the power of various military security companies. No one dares to take care of it, and no one can manage it. The sunken island we were going to was in the waters of the Gulf of Aden, where FernΓ‘ndez was once the company's director. The specific situation, you will naturally understand it when you get there. β
Lin Rui just wanted to speak, but there was a burst of laughter behind him, Zhao Jianfei walked over with a wine glass and said, "What are you talking about, so lively?"
"Nothing. It's just that this newcomer of ours has some questions about Shen Dao, and I'll help him answer them. Shogishi shrugged.
Zhao Jianfei walked over, nodded and said, "Jiang'an, I've heard of you for a long time. It is said that you are Mr. Mi's youngest thinker, and he also has great respect for you. β
"Prizes. Shogan smiled slightly.
"In that case, can you answer one of my doubts? Zhao Jianfei looked at him and said calmly.
Shogishi sighed and said, "Even if you don't say it, I know what you want to ask me." It's about Gross, isn't it?"
"Yes. Zhao Jianfei looked at him, then at Lin Rui and said, "I heard that it was the two of you who killed Gross." At least on the surface. I have a question, though. β
"What's the doubt?" said Shogishi with a smile.
"It's not the first time I've dealt with Gross. Since my brother died at his hands, I've spent almost six years tracking down a single thing about him. There were a few occasions to confront him afterwards, but in the end he always escaped safely. I know him better than anyone else, so to speak. Zhao Jianfei said slowly.
"What the hell are you trying to say?" said Shogishi with a shrug.
"I don't believe he's going to die at the hands of the two of you. At least not to die so easily. Zhao Jianfei looked at Jiang'an Road.
Shogishi was silent for a moment, then nodded, "I understand what you mean, you suspect that the person we killed wasn't really Gross. β
Zhao Jianfei didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.
Jiang An looked at Lin Rui, then at Zhao Jianfei, and then said in a low voice, "Okay, if you really want to know." I can tell you something. That's right, I've studied a lot of Gross's materials and analyzed some of his combat habits and personality. I also think that in the course of the lightning operation, many of his practices at that time were indeed problematic. Not like Gross himself. So, after the operation was over, I started to do some research. And all these investigations proved that it was Gross himself who I killed. β
"How can you prove it?" said Zhao Jianfei in a deep voice.
"First of all, Gross is a former member of the Israeli Wild Boys force, and he has a fairly complete file. From blood type, to DNA samples, and even medical records. It's all the same guy I killed. I even checked his dentist records in his medical records, and called up his dental X-rays through the computer, which were completely consistent with the deceased. "Shogan said slowly.
Lin Rui frowned and said, "Tooth marks are like fingerprints, which are difficult to impersonate. Does that mean the person you killed was really Gross?"
Shogishi nodded, "Yes and no. β
"What do you mean by that?" Zhao Jianfei frowned.
"The person I killed was indeed Gross, and he was indeed a member of the former Special Forces. But I suspect that he is not the leader of the Free Mercenary Regiment, Gross. Zhao Jianfei said slowly, "Gross is probably just a small person standing in the foreground. There may be someone else behind him. And that person never came forward, and everything he wanted to do was arranged through GuΓ² Gross. So the outside world never knew that the leader of the Israeli Free Mercenary Group was someone else, only the Gross we saw. β
"You mean identity impersonation? Someone is secretly controlling the entire free mercenary group under his pretense. Zhao Jianfei frowned and said, "What basis do you have?"
"First, Gross's original defensive battle plan was very thorough, three-dimensional defense, and almost no flaws were left. This is in stark contrast to his later stunts. It's not at all like the same person did it. Second, the reason why he made mistakes one after another in the later period was because Lin Rui's fifth squad blew up the communication base station and destroyed satellite communications. That is, the communication between that behind-the-scenes figure and Gross himself was cut off. He couldn't receive instructions from the people behind the scenes, so he had to do his own thing, so he lost all the games. "Shogan said slowly. "I found hidden miniature earbuds in his ears. This also proves that he has been in contact with someone in a timely manner. β
"Gross is not the leader of that free mercenary group?" Zhao Jianfei said with a slight surprise.
"There's one more thing I don't know whether to say or not. Jiang An looked at Zhao Jianfei and said, "Because I'm not sure if this is good news or bad news for you." β
"What's the matter?" Zhao Jianfei frowned.
"I've looked at Gross's shoulders and palms. "He's a good special forces, but he's not a professional sniper." In other words, the person who sniped your brother Zhao Jianye at that time would definitely not be him. β
"What are you talking about?!" Zhao Jianfei's face changed sharply.
"I just feel like you have a right to know the truth. Shogishi looked at him and said, "As far as I know, your brother was sniped by a small-caliber sniper rifle at a distance. And the only country equipped with small-caliber sniper rifles is China, Type 88 Type 5. 8mm sniper rifle, the gun also has a foreign trade model 97 sniper rifle, caliber is 5. 56mmγ The gun was the first in the world to shoot 5. 56mm sniper rifle. In addition, some countries, such as the United States, have also developed5. 56mm sniper rifles, but none of them were adopted by the military, but were only used in the civilian market and for competition use, which means that the armies of other countries are not equipped with small-caliber sniper rifles at all. β
"You mean that the one who sniped my brother may also be a Chinese mercenary? This is impossible!" Zhao Jianfei shook his head and said, "Gross's free mercenary group is almost all Israelis. β
Jiang An shook his head and said, "I didn't say that the one who killed your brother was also a Chinese mercenary, I just said that no one in Gross's mercenary team used such a non-standard weapon." Except for one man - the hidden leader who never appeared behind the scenes. β
Zhao Jianfei's face changed slightly, "Are you sure?"
Jiang An smiled slightly, "If you lose your horse, you don't know if it's a blessing." On the bad side, we failed to avenge your brother. But on the bright side, you get the chance to get your hands dirty. If we had a chance to find out the leader behind the Free Mercenary Regiment. β
