The African grassland was full of joy late at night. The joyful black people took boxes of weapons and ammunition from the plane and sent them to the bushes next to the field airport to cover them with canvas. The speed and efficiency made Alexander speechless...

In the military tent, the light bulb driven by the hand-operated generator gave off a dim light. Li Jianguo spread a map of Western Saddamoa on the ammunition box and said: "The battle situation has changed a lot, and it has exceeded our expectations."
Liu Ziguang's heart sank and he asked: "Did we lose much?"
Li Jianguo smiled bitterly and said: "You are mistaken. We have not lost. To be precise, the Kaye people have not lost. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's mercenaries have controlled most of the areas except San Juan. His Royal Highness Bobby's return to the country and his enthronement are just around the corner."
Liu Ziguang said in astonishment: "So fast!"
"Of course, modern wars are all about quick wins, and the tactics adopted by these mercenaries are very clever. Their leader is John Faulkner, who commanded a very famous battle in Chad in 1987 and used equipment.
The troops with Toyota pickup trucks and bazooka machine guns defeated three Libyan mechanized infantry brigades supported by fighter jets, and became famous in one battle. Of course, that was more than 20 years ago, but this tactic was used in Western Saddamoa.
But it's not out of date. It's obvious that His Highness Bobby made the right bet this time." Li Jianguo spread his hands and said helplessly.
Liu Ziguang immediately understood the seriousness of the situation. If the crown prince's army controlled the situation, then he would have nothing to do. When Bobby returned to the country to take power, cut down the vassal and reduce the army, Chen Martin and Li Jianguo would have no choice but to retreat sadly, and
The tens of millions of funds he invested have been wasted, and the ownership of the iron ore has become unknown.
Obviously, the situation cannot be allowed to develop according to this trend, but as an ally of the Kaye tribe, I cannot secretly weaken the strength of the allies. The only thing I can do is to form the army as soon as possible to create a fait accompli and let His Highness Bobby
Nor dare to cut down the feudal clan easily.
"Jianguo, this time I brought 200 automatic rifles, and a batch of light and heavy weapons will arrive soon. Can you give me accurate information on when the army will be able to start training?" Liu Ziguang asked.
"I won't lie to you. It's not difficult to build a team that can shoot in a short period of time, but when it encounters a tough challenge, such a team will definitely collapse. The key is that we lack capable non-commissioned officers. You know Faulkner
What did the colonel do? He found dozens of European veterans, recruited hundreds of former armed forces with combat experience from places like Chad, Sudan, Angola, and Sierra Leone, bought dozens of Toyota pickup trucks, and equipped them with
Large-caliber machine guns and rocket launchers are a highly mobile army that is completely copied from the Toyota War model. As for us, we can’t even have one firearm per person. Most of the soldiers still use swords, spears, bows and arrows. The key is the foundation of soldiers.
Their quality is so poor that they cannot operate advanced weapons even if they are given them." Li Jianguo replied sullenly. It seems that although he tried his best during this period, the results were not great.
Liu Ziguang pondered for a moment and said: "I understand, we can't count on them in the short term. Don't worry, I will immediately bring you a team that can fight a tough battle."
Li Jianguo asked curiously: "Where do you recruit troops from?"
"As long as you are willing to spend money these days, are you afraid that you won't find anyone who dares to sacrifice your life?" Liu Ziguang said confidently.
"That's all we can do. By the way, those mercenaries will come tomorrow morning. Be mentally prepared. They are not fuel-efficient lamps." Li Jianguo reminded.
"Really, what are they here for?"
"Come to receive supplies, how do you think this airport came to be? It was built specifically for them, but you just came a step earlier."
Liu Ziguang was puzzled: "We have become engineering soldiers together."
"What can we do? Martin is also a deputy minister of the government and must obey the orders of His Royal Highness. However, I have a backup plan. We built the airport and it is under our control."
"That's it." Liu Ziguang nodded with satisfaction.
…
Early the next morning, a convoy arrived, led by five Land Rover off-road vehicles, with white mercenaries sitting in them, followed by a Toyota pickup truck of various colors, including red, white, and blue.
, there was a large-caliber machine gun mounted on the car, and black soldiers wearing single green combat uniforms were sitting lazily in the car. But when the car stopped, they suddenly showed their excellent tactical qualities and jumped out of the car one after another and inadvertently took advantage of the situation.
Location.
An officer wearing a French Army M64 combat uniform jumped out of the leading Land Rover and came straight to Li Jianguo. Although he had gray hair on his temples, he was full of energy, with a straight waist and a dignified appearance as a professional soldier.
"Li, I have to praise you. The Chinese are the best engineers in the world, bar none. Look how well you have built the field airport." The middle-aged man stretched out his hand to shake Li Jianguo's hand and took out his corncob pipe.
He pulled it out from his mouth and said.
"Thank you, the Chinese are also the best infantry in the world, bar none." Li Jianguo replied calmly.
The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows, smiled noncommittally, and then saw Liu Ziguang, who was dressed in casual clothes. With his keen sense, he seemed to smell something similar, so he walked over and said hello: "Hello, I am John Fu.
Colonel Kerner."
Liu Ziguang shook hands with him and said, "Nice to meet you. I'm Bruce Liu. I'm glad to stand on a united front with you."
Colonel Faulkner nodded proudly and was about to speak when suddenly there was a noise in the distance. There seemed to be a conflict near the Antonov transport plane. He frowned and shouted: "Ulm!"
Ulm, a black officer, stood not far behind the colonel. When he heard the greeting, he immediately put his heels together and saluted: "Yes, sir!"
"Go and see what's going on." Colonel Faulkner said without looking back, continuing to greet Liu Ziguang: "Are you from China too?"
Just as Liu Ziguang was about to answer, there was a gunshot in the distance. This time Faulkner couldn't stand anymore. He said sorry and walked over quickly holding on to the holster. Liu Ziguang and Li Jianguo looked at each other and followed him. Li Jianguo also followed suit.
He threw his Stechkin automatic pistol to Liu Ziguang and took a freshly unpacked automatic rifle.
Next to the Antonov transport plane, several white mercenaries were sitting on the ground with bruises and bruises. Alexander only wore a blue and white striped sea soul shirt, and he was still moving around in a boxing posture. The people around him were all at war with each other.
No one fired a gun.
The gunshot just now was fired by the sentry on the watchtower, and it was quite accurate. It hit the rifle in the hand of a mercenary. The warning was very clear, and anyone who fired the gun would be hit.
Colonel Faulkner turned around angrily, faced Li Jianguo and said calmly: "Colonel Li, I need a written explanation."
Li Jianguo said: "He is not my subordinate, and I am not your subordinate, so there will be no explanation, that's it."
The atmosphere was a little tense. Li Jianguo's black soldiers all tightened their spears, and the white mercenaries quietly pressed their hands on the handles of their guns. The black foreign soldiers in the pickup truck in the distance also pulled the bolt of the large-caliber machine gun.
A fire seems imminent.
Colonel Faulkner's face was very sinister. He looked coldly at Li Jianguo and Liu Ziguang, who had calm faces, and then slowly glanced at the naked black soldiers around him. He suddenly laughed, pointed at Alexander and said with a smile: "
You, boy, are Russian, aren't you."
Alexander rubbed the back of his head, wondering what kind of medicine Colonel Faulkner was selling in his gourd, but it was obvious that the tense atmosphere was gone with the colonel's laughter, and the crisis was resolved.
Colonel Faulkner quickly learned about the situation. It turned out that it was his mercenaries who asked Alexander to move the plane so as not to affect the landing of the plane behind him. However, the Russians were not easy to talk to, and they were not in a good mood after drinking all the vodka.
Okay, after a few words, the two sides started to fight. The mercenaries were no match for the Russian paratroopers, and all four of them were knocked down together.
"Let me guess, this beautiful Antonov must be the property of Mr. Ivan Listrovsky. You know, Ivan and I have been good friends for many years. If you don't mind,
Could you please move the plane to the side a little, young man?" Colonel Faulkner said with a smile.
Alexander shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, expressing his willingness to help, so Colonel Faulkner arranged for a truck to help Alexander tow the plane away from the runway.
"This colonel seems to be a good person." Liu Ziguang said, looking at Faulkner's busy back.
"Yes, this kind of person is a man who has been beaten with swords and blood. He is hot-blooded and tough, but he is reasonable and cannot be compared to that kind of little ruffian." Li Jianguo replied, and it was obvious that he still had feelings for Colonel Faulkner.
Full of respect among soldiers.
The equipment of the mercenaries under the colonel is much better than that of Li Jianguo and others. They have AK47 automatic rifles made in Eastern Europe, mortars, rocket launchers, and large-caliber machine guns. They are all brand new and the blue color has not faded. The military uniforms are also brand new.
The military uniform looks like a regular army at first glance. On the other hand, the people under Li Jianguo's command don't even have uniforms, let alone beautiful berets and majestic canvas military boots.
Half an hour later, a C130 transport plane painted in light gray flew from the direction of Angola. The crowds on all sides began to cheer. The plane slowly descended and finally stopped steadily on the runway of the field airport. The crew got off the plane and asked the hired personnel
The army quartermaster handed over the cargo list, and then the black people repeated the scene last night and began to unload the cargo quickly.
The plane was filled with supplies for the mercenaries, ranging from bottled water and whiskey to military rations, cigarettes, beer, and even toilet paper, as well as bullets and shells of various calibers, auto parts, lubricants, etc.
"This is called a big deal." Wang Zhijun said with envy as he came down from the watchtower. The SVD sniper rifle was placed at his feet. The shocking shot just now was made by him, and it was thanks to his assistance.
Li Jianguo, otherwise his momentum would be even more overwhelming than others.
Several pilots got off the C130 transport plane, walked carelessly past Alexander, came to the carrying area and started to pee. One of them said in English with a South African accent: "Pierre is so unlucky, he got into an accident on his last mission.
Now he can no longer show off his big ass French girl."
A person next to him responded: "He must have forgotten to pin the photo of the French girl's bare butt under the windshield of the Alpha Jet as a talisman."
Immediately, several pilots burst into shrill laughter, not noticing Alexander's angry gaze behind them at all.
