"What the hell is going on?" Lin Rui didn't ask...... Because he had already seen that the mercenaries who had been in this wooden house had already gotten up and left, and they all looked nervous. Lin Rui immediately returned to the mercenary's station with the rest of the team.

In the hall of the mercenary station, Alberta said solemnly, "I hope you are all awake." Because what I want to tell you is that I have received instructions from the company's headquarters, and there will be an important task the day after tomorrow. The specific situation of the mission, a special mission briefing will be made later. What I can reveal here is that this is not an easy task. Moreover, it is in such a dangerous time as the present. So I hope you stay in good shape until then, at least don't get drunk again. Do you get it?"

"Understood!" the mercenaries said in a deep voice. They had been debauched drinkers and gamblers a few minutes before, but as soon as they were notified of the mission, they became extremely cautious, completely different from the previous profligate wreckage.

"Before I do that, I have to make it clear. As we all know, our current shape is severe. Two of the branches were attacked, and even I myself was sniped at the company branch. This shows that someone is secretly attacking us. And we don't know who the other person is or what purpose they are.

Under such circumstances, I had originally established a company to suspend all kinds of operations, but my company was rejected. Because it's not realistic. We may be able to wait, but our employers can't. They spent money and deserved to be served accordingly. Alberta looked at the mercenaries and said, "All I can say to you is to be careful. And whatever happens, the task must take precedence. ”

Alberta stepped aside. He was the head of Morningstar's African division, but was not involved in actual military operations. In fact, the operations of the Africa Division are directed and assigned by one of his deputies. The deputy, a black man named Danny, began to introduce the mission as soon as he took the stage. Then the heads of these mercenary teams put forward a detailed plan from the combat objective.

This time, the goal of the operation was very clear, to use a surprise attack to completely clear a certain area under armed control. According to the information provided by the employer, the other party was a rebel group entrenched in the mountains. The government forces were unable to clean it up, so they handed it over to Morningstar, which of course cost a lot of money. In fact, that place is so small that it can't be found on the map, and the two sides had no intention of fighting for it, but recently there have been frequent conflicts.

There is only one reason, it is said that there is a diamond mine in that place. Diamonds are abundant in the mountainous regions of southern Africa, and whoever controls a diamond mine has the ability to become a great local warlord. The huge profits from the diamond trade are also often used to develop armaments. A diamond mine can make an ordinary local armed force grow rapidly and become a veritable prince. So that place became the focus of contention between the two sides.

In just one month, five large-scale clashes have broken out between government forces and * armed forces. More than a dozen villages were largely empty, and the villagers were either forcibly recruited into the army by one of them or simply slaughtered. The photos on the pre-war briefing were extremely bloody and cruel, which made Lin Rui feel a little sick to his stomach when he saw it.

"The leader of this group of rebels is this man. Danny pointed to a photo shown on the screen, "General Dembizulu, who claims to be the leader of the Free Liberation Front. They numbered around 200 or 250 men, and were mostly armed with light weapons and RPG rockets, and some were said to have shoulder-fired SAM missiles. Evidence suggests that they may have captured small-caliber artillery of government troops, but they have no supply of shells. However, it cannot be ruled out that after they take over the diamond mines, they will already have sufficient funds to replenish their armaments. ”

Look at the black men in the photos who are disheveled, holding AK47s, and smirking at the camera. Lin Rui couldn't help but sigh, in a war-torn area, it seems that everywhere you can encounter this kind of guy who gathers a few people and claims to be a general when he takes a weapon.

"Several government forces failed to clear the crackdowns, partly because of poor combat effectiveness, and partly because the rebels occupied favorable terrain. In the absence of heavy weapons and air support. They don't get much to bargain for. Danny paused, "And we're facing the same problem right now. In the dense forests of the valley, our two helicopters did not make much difference. It can only provide maneuver, not air strikes. ”

One of the mercenaries frowned, "I remember that we were principled before, no matter what the circumstances, we would not appear in areas without helicopter air support. ”

"I know it's going to be a lot of inconvenience for us. But this time the situation is exceptional. The employer has asked us to clear the area of a qiē resistance within this week. We don't have much time left. So even without aerial firepower, we have to fight this battle. ”

Danny nodded. "This is a specific topographic map, and the resolution of the satellite images is not very high. But it was still clear that the small town where the rebels were entrenched was all in the valley, and the road into the valley was dense forest. It will be dangerous for our helicopters to pass through this area, because the other side is likely to be hiding there, and their MANPADS are too much of a threat to the helicopters. So we're going to be coming in from this area, which means you're going to walk through the valley. ”

"It's a bit risky, walking through a jungled valley that we're not familiar with. We don't know if there's an ambush, but it's their lair. Moreover, in the jungle area, because of the natural shelter of the forest vegetation, it is more convenient for them to maneuver in guerrilla warfare. Lin Rui frowned, "I don't think it's good to do this." Why not try a direct landing on the other side of this town?"

"Because it's another warlord's sphere of influence, and this person has a tense relationship with us, it's a no-fly zone. Once we show up there, it will cause unnecessary trouble. Danny explained.

"Then it can't be helped. Zhao Jianfei shrugged and said, "It seems that we can only walk through that valley with our feet." What about the other information? I mean is there any other information that we need to know in addition to the information provided by the employer. ”

"Actually, yes, the employer had explicitly asked us to annihilate this group of rebels. But we don't think it's wise to do that, and if we wipe them all out, where will we have any business to do? All you need to do is get the other person out of the area and you're done. Danny smiled
