After we had slaughtered all the rabble that had escaped, the Earl on the other side did not show much of a reaction, and still fired his guns sporadically as before, not even bothering to throw away the shells.

I looked at the mustache that had been pulled up from the ground by the oil bottle, "Look at the other side, this is your ally." This posture is completely giving up on you, a posture of whatever I want. ”

"What the hell are you going to do? Do you ransom? Let's talk about the numbers. "The mustache suddenly became very cheerful at the moment, but this is also normal, does he have any bargaining chips with me at the moment?

Speaking of ransom... I don't really have much experience with that. Grande's face flashed to my mind, the guy was supposed to be good at this, but he'd been out of here and gone about his business. So who else? I don't want to waste my time on this, I still have important things to do, and there are more dangerous battles ahead of me.

I saw the murderous oil bottle next to the mustache, and I suddenly realized that this oil bottle who had been dealing with the guerrillas for a longer time than I should know more about this, after all, the guerrillas often engage in kidnapping.

"You come and talk to him about the ransom. And the guy whose name is Kale, let them give money. Kill all those who don't have any money. That's it. ”

"Me? How do I talk about it? The oil bottle asked with a surprised face.

"Whatever. You can do it, just follow the guerrillas' routine. I said casually, "And to ask them about the Earl, I want to know what kind of state the Count is in now." ”

"Okay... But I don't understand the guerrillas' routines! ”

"Then you always know how the guerrillas ask for ransom, right? You've never seen this before, haven't you ever been caught by them? I asked.

"yes. . . I've heard that the lion opens his mouth widely, and the price is all over the sky. "Drag the oil bottle road.

I spread my hands, "That's fine." You can do it, hurry up, and ask the Earl about the situation first. After I finished speaking, I ignored him and looked at Milk, "Let's discuss it a few times, and we're going to start with the Eastern Camp soon." ”

We called Vukovic, Pulsic, Milic and Jugovic. I spoke first: "Let's pack up our things, the people of the Eastern Battalion are already on the way, we must get out of here quickly." My plan was to retreat to the barracks and hold on there, but not everybody would go, and I meant that I was going to take some of the people with me, because it wasn't a place where there were many people in need. Milk took the rest of the men on the periphery, waiting for an opportunity. Vukovic and Milic and your men will first send all the rescued women and children to a safe place, and protect them from the Count from taking advantage of the chaos to sneak up on them. Pulcic and Milk act together, looking for opportunities outside, in my plan, the barracks are just a place to consume each other, the real fatal blow will still come from the periphery, and the attack launched on the periphery is the real deadly. ”

"And how many people are you going to take into the barracks? Who to bring? Milk asked.

I looked at Yugovic, "Uncle, Vurić and the oil bottle took those of us who came back alive from Bosnia and Herzegovina to the barracks, these people were familiar with it before. Then give me thirty or forty men, plus those who are now defending the barracks, and that's pretty much enough. ”

"That's it? Are you sure enough? Don't be wiped out anytime soon. Pulcic said worriedly.

I shook my head, "I've rebuilt it there, and it's not completely finished, but it should be enough, and the key is how we build it." As for the number of people, it is not suitable to put too many people there, these people are enough. I don't think this will be a long time coming, because I don't think the Serbian government will allow the Eastern Battalion to carry out armed operations for a long time, no matter how much it is said that this is in Serbia. ”

"And me. Don't forget me. Trovic came to me at some point, and he looked at me and said, "We agreed before, my man and my gun will be in the barracks. ”

I glanced at Trovich, who looked a little tired, perhaps because of Giovanna's rescue, the tense nerves that had relaxed. "You should take Giovanna with Vukovic and Milic."

"Nope. My battle isn't over yet, it's not over yet! We said yes before, said yes! And I'm more familiar with it than the average person, I've been there many times, and I know what you're trying to do there. Trovic was agitated again.

I waved my hand and looked at Giovanna, who was standing not far away, and I said, "Did you promise Bunotz to take her away?" Away from here? ”

"Promised! But not now! Giovanna's mother is dead, and so is Bunotz! I want revenge, revenge! If you don't let me go with you, I'll do it myself! You can do it. Trovic said firmly.

"Alright! Calm down! You come with me to the barracks. But when you get there, everything has to listen to me. I mean everything! I said in an accentuated tone.

Trovic nodded in agreement when he saw me, "No problem. I won't let you down! With that, he turned and walked towards Giovanna.

"I've got enough people here. Is there anything else you have to say? I asked.

Milk shook his head, "I don't have one here, but in my opinion, shouldn't we be better off staying away from here and avoiding the Eastern Battalion?" ”

"Yes." Vukovic also spoke: "I think so too. The Eastern Battalion is not these chaotic bandits, those people are regular troops. ”

"I know. I've fought with those guys. In Kosovo, in Bosnia and Herzegovina. "I said that the faces of many people flashed through my mind, Ivanovich, Milosevic, veterans, captains, and even Dravich who was beaten on the border." We hid for a while, but what after that? Do I have to wait for them to change guards and get out of here before I come back? And if we run away, you can be sure that they won't trouble you locals. You may not know, but I got the information that the beardless guy was hateful to the Serbs. The point is that I've planned it, I'm prepared, I've thought about it from the moment I decided to come here. Now that I've figured it out, why don't I do it? Are you still waiting for the other party to come back next time when I'm not prepared? ”

"Okay." Milk spoke after a brief thought, "I've long wanted to deal with the Eastern Battalion anyway. But the Count should come with him. ”

"Of course. Salish will definitely come. And I guess he will work harder in the operation with the Eastern Battalion, or really show his strength. I said, glancing in the Earl's direction, "This guy probably had a plan to sell his teammates early on. I just want these people to help him stall for time, and let the people who can really fight us help. What a good calculation! ”

"What do you mean? Why didn't I get it? Milk asked, frowning. Vukovic, who was beside him, seemed to quickly figure it out, and he spoke: "If it's really like you say that, I'm careless." ”

"It doesn't matter. As long as he comes this time, he must come with all his belongings, and it just so happens that everyone will make a break on our preset battlefield! I looked at Vukovic and said, "Is there an armed group of Croats and MSL in Salish?" ”

Vukovic was stunned for a moment when he heard me mention this, and then said, "This... Yes. However, they do not actively attack. They will only be dispatched if this side is attacked. So you don't have to worry about them coming after you. After a pause, Vukovic said, "Actually, those are also poor people. All are poor people ruined by the civil war. ”

"Hmm. I hope they don't come. Then let's hurry up. Do what you just said, and act on your own. I said.

Mirić looked at me and said, "After arranging these people, I can take people to the barracks to support you." ”

"Yes. However, it is better to make sure that everyone will attack Vukovic. I said.

Miriki nodded, "I understand. Is there anyone else you want me to contact? For example, Petkovic, and Jojic, you may not know, Jojic and Kochiman are already very incompatible. ”

I thought for a moment and said, "No. Fighting wars sometimes involves a lot of people. I'm not actually familiar with Petkovic, so let's focus on Kochiman. At that, my mind flashed. Koqiman, this is actually a variable, I looked at Milic, "Please ask Jojic and Petkovic to pay more attention to Koqiman, I'm serious, I can't say why, I can only tell you that Younis is here." ”

Milic heard me say that, especially when I mentioned Eunice's news, his pupils visibly constricted. He immediately nodded and said, "I understand." I'll contact them right away. ”

Actually, I'm playing tricks, Younis actually wants to control Keqiman. But for me Ke Qiman is a potential threat, although it is not serious, but if there is a variable, it is probably not good for me, I can't let him succeed, I have to find some trouble for him. And now is the opportunity, in the event of a big war, everyone or the forces will be extremely nervous, which will undoubtedly amplify the mistrust between them, and in fact there will be people who will want to take advantage of the mess. Then at this time, it is undoubtedly the most appropriate to put some smoke and some bad water.

After deciding this, we drove away from the moving vehicles in the market, withdrew from the Count's sphere of influence, and headed quickly in the direction of the barracks. After a while, Vukovic and Milic broke away from the group and headed for their town, with the women and children who had been rescued and the children who had been skewered together.

"The ransom is done." When they were separated from Vukovic, the oil bottle came to my car with a smug face and talked to me.

I looked at him, "How much?" ”

"The mustache named Chesar sold for five million dollars. That Carlisle and that group of people were packaged and sold for two million dollars. "Drag the oil bottle road.

"A mustache is so valuable? Million? I've been to so many places, and I haven't made five million after playing for so long. I said a little depressed.

The oil bottle shook his head, "I still think I'm going to have less." ”

I waved my hand, "Okay." Look, you still want to organize a gang to specialize in this business? How do you give us the money? ”

"Zhao Yi! He's more skilled than me at collecting money or something. Let him take care of it. But we got the money, really let people go? The oil bottle asked in a low voice.

I glanced at him, "Rip the ticket?" Ignore those. Wait until the battle is over, let them hurry up and pay, I'm afraid that some of them will wait for the outcome of our battle here before making a decision. Set a time for them, and when the time is over, send all the captives on their way. And is there any new news from Christovich's side? ”

"Nope. There are no new ones. The oil bottle replied.

I nodded and looked out of the car, this time I could finally have a good fight with the people of the Dongfang Battalion.
