Chapter 916 Found a blind spot (please collect, recommend and vote, please vote monthly)
Sporadic exchanges of fire continued into the early morning, and order in the refugee camp was restored to calm. The refugees who felt that the danger had passed gathered around the mound beside the wall, brushing their teeth and watching the fighting outside.
The Laohe troops wearing blue helmets were still on alert. A squad of soldiers were stationed at the main entrance while driving these refugees to a safe area.
“Post No. 1, how is the situation over there?”, the voice of their company commander came from the walkie-talkie of squad leader Du Feng.
Post No. 1 is right at the gate. Du Feng, wearing 07 camouflage and customized carrying gear, looked outside from behind the bunker with a telescope, and then replied through the intercom, "Post No. 1 reported that there are still small groups on the west side of the refugee camp. The armed men exchanged fire, numbering around 8-10 people.”
“Understood, please pay attention to your safety.”
This battle that lasted all night has caused dozens of casualties, both civilians and soldiers, but now both sides seem to have no motivation to continue.
"This is a test." Du Feng frowned as he watched the last few stragglers being forced into a thatched house by the government troops, and then the entire house was reduced to rubble by a 12.7-caliber heavy machine gun.
Neither side tried their best, and the Zhengfu army did not dispatch heavy equipment such as T72 tanks or armed helicopters.
After confirming that all the rebels were dead, the gunfire finally stopped, and the soldiers of the Zhengfu army drove armed pickup trucks in a circle on the road toward their camp.
“Headquarters, the battle at Post No. 1 is over.” Du Feng reported the situation with a walkie-talkie.
"Received, the third squad has set off. They will take over your security duties. Let everyone take a rest first. This conflict may have just begun."
"clear."
Soon, the infantry fighting vehicles of the reserve team came over and changed defense with Du Feng's squad.
The camp was newly built. When they first arrived, there was only an open space. From leveling the ground to installing prefabricated houses, they built it all by themselves.
After the Type 92 infantry fighting vehicle drove into the camp, Du Feng's heart dropped.
“Okay, everyone, take a rest first, I’ll go to the headquarters.” Du Feng had no time to unload nearly 20 kilograms of equipment and hurried to the headquarters.
The order in Juba has not been destroyed because of such a battle. People seem to have become accustomed to it. They continue their previous lives and are busy trying to survive.
…
Xu Chuan just had a chat with the person in charge of the business side. Mining Minister Maga was very satisfied with Umbrella's sincerity and planned to meet with the person in charge.
Of course Xu Chuan would not go to see the minister. He set his sights on Curtis.
The black and traditional **** next to me is very suitable for meeting his compatriots.
“Boss, stop joking.” After hearing Xu Chuan’s plan, Curtis grinned and quickly refused.
Xu Chuan raised his eyebrows and said, "I think you are quite suitable. After you are done, how about I make you the governor of Nansudan?"
Curtis looked at the other person and wanted to curse, but he still explained to Xu Chuan seriously, "Nan Sudan and I are not from the same ethnic group. If you insist on saying so, I belong to the Bantu ethnic group in West Africa."
Xu Chuan squinted at the other person, wanting him to take out the family tree and look at it, but he probably didn't.
Curtis gave him an idea, "Sanborn will arrive in two days. His skin color is more suitable. You should let him be the governor." This guy showed no mercy when it came to betraying his teammates.
Xu Chuan thought about it seriously and felt that this was also an option. At least Sanborn's pretty features were much more pleasing to the eye than the one next to him.
“I’m giving you a chance, don’t regret it in the future.” He refused such a good thing, and Xu Chuan was speechless.
The two people decided Sanborn's fate so casually, without asking the other party whether they agreed or not.
The Huaxia Hotel is located in the city center of Juba, the real city center. On its south side is the Huaxia Grand Airport, surrounded by embassies and consulates of other countries and the official departments of South Sudan.
This place is considered the most modern area in Juba. Although there is no power supply and there are no street lights at night, it is surrounded by military checkpoints and Jingcha Orange, so safety can be guaranteed in peacetime.
The staff of Umbrella did not relax just because they got on the path of the Minister of Mines. They were spreading large sums of cash to bribe the top management. Xu Chuan didn't feel sorry for the black money at all. He now had The cash inside can't be used up at all, and those U.S. knives and pounds will all become waste paper if they don't get out.
It is actually not difficult to establish a relationship. What is difficult is how to gain a foothold here later.
However, through the experience of Yemen and Lipiyya, Umbrella already knows how to deal with people in these countries. Things like carrots and sticks are really effective.
Of course, Xu Chuan knew why he came here. While establishing the East African branch, he kept Gogol here in order to help Nikita reduce the pressure in Eastern Europe.
So, he was very happy when he saw Ali Taselov at the Crown Hotel in Juba two days later.
“It’s great to see you here.” Ali hugged Xu Chuan very warmly, “By the way, I watched your basketball game, it was great.”
Xu Chuan was speechless. Is that bad game so popular?
"I thought you had arrived a long time ago." Ali's journey was actually slower than his own. He must have gone to other places in the meantime.
Ali didn't intend to hide it from him. "You are right. I went to the oil-producing area in the north of South Sudan and talked with the Nuer tribe there."
Maozi is still so direct. It seems that he plans to skip Nansudan Palace and directly cooperate with local tribes.
Xu Chuan did not stop the other party, but reached an agreement with Ali. Anyway, neither party could eat all of Nan Su Dan in one bite, so it would be better for both parties to cooperate to squeeze out the others.
Of course Ali agreed and agreed with Xu Chuan to jointly set up a contact point in Juba to communicate and prevent misunderstandings between the two parties. Of course, the most important thing was to fight against common competitors.
But to be honest, this kind of thing is no different from farting. In fact, both parties do not trust each other at all.
“BOSS, do you really want to cooperate with Umbrella? I don’t see any sincerity on the other side.” Ali’s senior assistant asked his boss after Xu Chuan left the hotel.
Ali Taselov smiled, then took out a cigar from the box on the table, and his assistant quickly lit it for him.
"No, we just have a tacit understanding. Neither of us believes the other at all." Ali showed an expression like an old fox. As for why he wanted to reach such a cooperation, it was mainly because he also needed a target to attract other people's attention. .
"I heard that Umbrella is dealing with the Minister of Mining. Do we need to cause them some trouble." Ali shook his head, "No, there will definitely be trouble for them."
Gogol knows more about the situation in South Sudan than Umbrella. It involves the forces of many countries, including the five major gangsters and various countries in East Africa, such as Ethiopia, Congo, and Kenya.
Otherwise, how could he be able to become independent with just a referendum? The United States has contributed a lot behind this, and its energy companies have long wanted to take over the oil fields and minerals here.
And now it has fallen into a civil war just after independence, which actually makes the United States quite shameless, and more importantly, it affects the harvest plan of their energy group.
So, it doesn’t take a brain to figure out that the United States will never sit idly by and watch, and South Sudan will continue to be in chaos for a long time.
Umbrella, who wants to get his hands on the American spoils, is still too immature in Ali's opinion. If he contacts the top management like this right from the start, it will easily attract others' attention.
“Let’s move people over to carry out our own plans.”
…
“This old guy is just like an old fox.” Xu Chuan got into the car and took out the Glock 19 pinned behind his waist and put it in his hand just in case.
It seems that Ali Taseloff wants to see his joke, and obviously has his own thoughts about South Sudan.
However, these problems are not big. He only needs to make sure that the other party's focus is on Africa. Gogol is not able to fight on two fronts.
“Their purpose seems to be the same as ours, to let the other party share the firepower.” Curtis was driving to the airport to pick up people, and Casper was also arriving today.
That's right, it is indeed the case, and the other party also knows their thoughts. This cooperation is really interesting, and neither party has good intentions.
The airport is located in the northeast corner of Juba, and a Gulfstream business jet landed on the crude runway.
Taxiing to the apron, the door opened, and Casper, who was well-dressed and had silver hair, walked down the gangway.
Facing the sunshine, Cusper put his hand on his forehead and complained, "It's so hot."
The HCLI people had prepared the car and drove onto the tarmac.
Xu Chuan waited in the shade outside the airport. When he saw them coming out, he waved to the motorcade and asked them to follow them, and took them all the way to the Huaxia Hotel.
In order to increase the turnover for fellow villagers, if Boss Li insists on exempting himself from the bill, it will not be considered as taking advantage of him.
"I've reserved the room, why don't you take a rest first?" Xu Chuan looked at Casper who came out of the car. He still looked the same, followed by Qianjida and his escort.
"I'm fine. Now I want to hear the outcome of the negotiation between you and Gogol." He was flying on a private plane, and the comfort level was not comparable to that of civil aviation that required a transfer.
“That’s fine.” Xu Chuan let Cusper into his room, and only Qianjida and Curtis followed.
"I just met with Ali. This guy obviously has his own plan. My feeling is that he has not given up on the illegal territory of West Africa that he has always wanted to do, probably because he has already made preparations there."
“Then you mean that he doesn’t plan to put too much effort into Nansudan?” Casper asked.
Xu Chuan shook his head, "No, I feel like he wants the interests of both sides." This guy is really a scumbag and looks ugly.
“Do they have so many people?” Cusper also looked surprised.
"To be honest, I just figured out one thing. This guy is likely to have a steady supply of high-quality soldiers soon."
Xu Chuan has always ignored a blind spot before, that is, Ali may have defected to Maozi, which means that Maozi's military will open the door for him to allow a large number of soldiers with actual combat experience to join Gogol.
These people are not just trying to grab resources in Africa, but more importantly, they are trying not to get involved in the chaos in the Middle East through official channels.
If this is the case, Xu Chuan does not need to put in so much effort, because in this case Ali Taselov will no longer be able to intervene in Zetlov's mess.
“I just wanted to understand this matter, and it was such a failure.”, Xu Chuan couldn’t help but complain.
Although Cusper's smile did not change, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, "Why do you think Maozi will intervene in Chariya?" You must know that the sphere of influence of Chariya's official house is gradually shrinking, even if the capital is large. Half of Ma Shige is not under the control of the doctor president.
Xu Chuan curled his lips, isn't this obvious?
"Believe me, in the next two years, Mao Zi will definitely send troops." Although the plots of those film and television dramas made him always suspicious, the trend of the world did not deviate too much from his memory.
To be honest, Xu Chuan felt that this was due to the fact that he killed Alassade in Yemen more than two years ago and gave an early warning of the nuclear bomb, and the world seemed to have returned to normal.
So it’s like this, I am actually the hero who saves the world? This is so touching.
Caspar looked at Xu Chuan who was trapped in his own inner world with a confused expression on his face, and felt that he wanted to say a curse word.
"Okay, let's put this matter aside for now. What do you want to do here in Nansudan?" Cusper thought it was impossible, because there were a lot of troubles at the door of Maozi's house, Bai E's election of the general, Wuklan's color and destiny, any one of them can affect Mao Zi's energy.
Next, Xu Chuan told the other party his plan again. In short, he was to obtain a development license from the government, and then target oil fields that had been explored but had been abandoned or suspended due to war.
“We have skilled workers in Libiya who are ready to take over at any time.”
Of course, the most important thing here is to deal with the local tribal forces, that is, the Nuer people. This matter can be done while building relationships and showing Umbrella's way of doing things.
Everyone is seeking money, and as long as it’s not excessive, they can make money together. If the natives can’t understand this truth, then Umbrella’s armed personnel will be needed to help them understand it.
“I need a large amount of equipment this time, can you transport it in?” Due to independence, South Sudan has become a landlocked country, and road transportation depends entirely on the faces of neighboring countries.
Cusper smiled and thought his question was funny, "Don't worry, people in the north don't know how much they hope the war here will be more intense. As long as I say it's for the rebels, they will help me clear the way with police cars." ”
Very good, then the most important thing for Umbrella now is to find a place and start building a base in South Sudan.
