After hours of non-stop bumps and flying dust, the members of XCOM Squad arrived in the town. It is the poorest country in Africa and suffers from a lack of infrastructure. The problem of roads is very serious, and in the entire township, only a few are asphalted. In most areas, the road is just a dirt road pressed by wheels, its borders are blurred, covered with a thick layer of dust, and any car passing by, it will kick up a cloud of dust, and from a distance it looks like an earth-colored dragon, as if it is trying its best to swallow up the whole car, only the front of the car barely escapes.

When they arrived, it was getting late, and the town's electric lights were bright and dark, and even suddenly turned dark, because the electricity supply was always insufficient. In order not to alarm the rebels, they parked their cars outside the town and walked to the town at night. Several African women approached, their complexions were dark, their bodies plump, and their buttocks were strikingly wide and upturned, like typical black women in the region.

Lin Rui and the others all wore sand bandans over their faces, wearing gray-yellow cloaks on their bodies, thinking silently and quietly. They dressed up as the usual armed men in the area, but they didn't have their guns in their hands. No one paid attention to them either, and the locals didn't care about these outsiders, because they didn't matter in their eyes. Aside from selling them goods, the villagers simply ignored them.

It didn't seem so safe here, and Zhao Jianfei warned the team members not to go it alone. The town was full of people, but unlike the villages and towns that I had been to before, there was a kind of restlessness in the air, and the eyes of the young people were no longer peaceful, and the feeling was fierce and cold-blooded. From time to time, armed men with loaded guns walked by on the streets.

Each time, Lin Rui was under the cloak, nervously clutching the gun. However, the armed men did not seem to stop them from questioning, and the armed rebels, who were similar to the militias, had little vigilance. The roads leading to the other towns were blocked anyway, and it was getting late, so they had little interest in interrogating strangers.

Vitak walked ahead and led them to a shack in this town.

"Is this here?" Zhao Jianfei frowned.

Virtek nodded, then raised his hand and knocked on the door. The owner of the house cursed with some dissatisfaction before he came out to open the door. But when he saw that it was Virtek, he laughed and hugged him again. This is a middle-aged black man who is somewhat fat. To be honest, there are really not many people who can be so fat in this country. Lin Rui always felt that this person was a bit like a black rapper, especially his pigtails, which made him look a little weird.

However, after this person saw Lin Rui and the others, he immediately became nervous again, and picked up the gun on the table casually. Virtek hurriedly stopped him and whispered a few words to him. He frowned slightly, then became happy again, and even walked over to hug Lin Rui like an old friend. "I like the Chinese. He patted Lin Rui's arm and said loudly in English.

"That's what I call my friend, Josh. Virtek said to Lin Rui and Zhao Jianfei.

Zhao Jianfei nodded, but glanced at the rest of the people. Ivan, Qin Fen and the others understood, and immediately walked out and stood guard on the periphery of the shack.

The black man seemed to be very enthusiastic and said a lot to Lin Rui and Zhao Jianfei. He told them that there was a railway nearby, which was built in the 60s and 70s of the last century, and the people who built this railway were Chinese, so he liked the Chinese very much.

Lin Rui asked Zhao Jianfei in a low voice, "Is there still a railway built by the Chinese?"

"Maybe it's because of a construction project in Africa. In those years, the Chinese spared no effort to help these African brothers of ours. However, after a long time, it is rarely mentioned now. Coupled with the frequent wars, these aid projects that year. Some have been almost destroyed. After the Chinese forgot it, an African still remembered. We are often like this, and it is easy to forget something. Zhao Jianfei said slowly.

Lin Rui was silent for a while and did not speak. After listening to Vitak's explanation, this Qiao Xu was a little hesitant, he looked at Zhao Jianfei and Lin Ruidao, "The Free Liberation Alliance occupied this place three weeks ago, and they have established a blockade line to completely block the road to the south. ”

"We had passed through a few towns and villages, but there were almost no people there. What about the local residents, why are several nearby villages and towns completely empty?" Zhao Jianfei frowned.

"They were all forcibly escorted to the south. Because the north is the territory of government forces, these villagers are seen as loyal to government forces. Some of the rebels were not slaughtered, while the rest were transported to the mines of the south to work or to be recruited into the army, forced to fight the government forces. It is said to be an opportunity to prove their loyalty. Qiao Xu smiled bitterly, "Actually, they are just villagers, and even children, who have no training at all, they are used as cannon fodder, and after going to the battlefield, there are only a handful of them who can come back." ”

"This is the practice of some old-school warlords, who take the rebels as laborers or forcibly recruit them. But it's rare to do it so thoroughly, unless it's ......," Zhao Jianfei frowned.

"Unless what?" asked Lin Rui.

"Ordinary warlords also arrest people, but rarely move entire villages and towns away. It's just that when there is a need for labor or soldiers, they come and arrest people. Nothing was done as thoroughly as General Dunby this time. Forcibly relocate everyone. Zhao Jianfei said.

"Yes, I also feel a little strange. Josh nodded.

"Could it be the Solid Wall Qingye?" Lin Rui frowned. "The fighting between the rebels and the government forces is at a critical juncture, and the rebels are now showing signs of decline. General Dunby simply relocated the population of some small towns on the front line and burned all the houses. Leave the government army a blank slate. ”

"It's possible, but I'm more worried about another possibility. Zhao Jianfei looked at Lin Rui and said, "You know, those five hundred kilograms of VX poison." Once it spreads on the front lines of the war, it will definitely be full of corpses. ”

Lin Rui was taken aback, shook his head and said, "If that's the case, it's a big problem." So why did he relocate ordinary villagers? Judging by the cruel methods he used to deal with those villagers, he was not a man who cherished the people. ”

"You don't know these warlords, but in their eyes, people are also a resource, just like gold and diamond mines, but a little cheaper. Soldiers are needed for warfare, and labor is needed for mining. General Dunby was unwilling, and these people were also burned with the spread of VX poison. In his opinion, these ordinary people are still useful to him. This also proves that the use of VX poison is already in his plan. As long as the situation deteriorates further, there is a good chance that he will use this poison against the Harlot government army. Zhao Jianfei's face was grim
