Chapter 2447: Anxious waiting

Lin Rui and the others had nothing to do, and they wandered around in Yousong Town. Jiangan whispered, "This Kadom seems to have two brushes. Have you noticed the defensive position there? The firepower configuration and personnel arrangement are all in place. And the connection with the other two positions is taken into account. Look. Get up, he still has two defensive battles."
"It's a pity that this traditional method may not work for the secret society. If the first round is shelled, it is hard to say how many machine gun positions can be left." Lin Rui whispered.
"This is his brilliance. The secret society has successfully taken down several western cities by means of quick assaults. This has caused them to go deep alone and lack effective heavy weapon support. At most, they are only some infantry such as mortars. Support weapons, but it is difficult to effectively kill these firepower points." Crazy Horse nodded.
"It's a land warfare expert." Lin Rui patted him on the shoulder. "Okay, the situation here is pretty close. Let's go back, Kadom arranged a place for us near the headquarters. We should also contact Black Panther Gure. We also listen to his situation. Say it again."
Jiang Jian and Crazy Horse nodded. Several people returned to the headquarters. Xiao Fenghui reported, "We have contacted the Black Panther Gulei. They arrived at the scheduled location last night and are gathering at a location 30 kilometers away from Yousong Town. There is a fortress originally belonging to the Anmore military. The initial deployment can be completed this afternoon. After the communication is re-established, they will notify us again."
"Are all their people here?" Lin Rui frowned, "It's fast enough."
"There is a cross-border railway there, which makes their operations much earlier than expected, and Gaston's supply is not a problem. In addition to the more than 3,000 people under the Black Panther Gure, Gaston also allocated Their 1,000 Gaston soldiers, of course, are mercenaries in name. At present, their total number is more than 4,000. The equipment and supplies are not worse than here." Xiao Feng replied.
"Very good. When he sends another newsletter next time, he will notify me immediately. I want to ask him some specific information." Lin Rui nodded. "What's going on in the secret society? Is there any news from Vital?"
"There is news from Vitalk. The several towns occupied by the secret agency have been transporting various materials these days, and they have not stopped. It seems that the secret agency is also doing material preparations. According to their observations, There will be at most one week before the secret society will launch an offensive." Xiao Feng replied.
"It's almost as we expected." Lin Rui nodded and said, "Do you know the actual military strength of the secret society?"
"According to their supply situation. The total number should be about 6,000, but the real secret society should only account for 50%. The rest are the Olumi Federal Forces. But even so, the combat power is not bad. Although. The current number of the Second Army in Yousong Town has reached 8,000, but it includes other non-combat forces. If you really want to fight, the people of the Anmore coalition may not be able to withstand them for long." Xiao Feng frowned.
"I see." Lin Rui got up anxiously and walked outside. He leaned against the wall and lit a cigarette. It seemed that there was a depression in the air, which made him feel uncomfortable smoking.
Crazy Horse sat beside him and asked him for a cigarette.
Lin Rui turned to look at him, "Don't you rarely smoke? I thought you quit."
Crazy Horse spit out a puff of smoke, and said in a low voice, "Tobacco, but we Indians first cultivated it, and witch doctors used it to treat diseases in the past. How about it, do you feel a little depressed?"
Lin Rui nodded, "I can't help but miss snake eyes. Maybe this time, some of us can't go back."
"Get used to it." Crazy Horse whispered, "Waiting for war is the most annoying. When I was serving in Afghanistan, I experienced this kind of waiting, and I know how exhausting it is. It takes time and there is no hope. One of the reasons for that time was that the road behind us was blocked by militants, so the tanks could not get in.
One day I heard a truck driver in a convoy say to another driver: What's the use of a tank? Just give me a thousand dollars, and I promise you that I can drive my truck and run rampant here, and the effect will be the same Same as armored vehicles. But his companion was unmoved: OK, man, I can keep the money for you. "
Lin Rui smiled, "You really can't tell jokes."
Crazy Horse smiled bitterly, "In Iraq and Afghanistan, when Snake Eye and I were mercenaries, the income was already very high, earning tens of thousands of dollars a week. Most of the mercenary money was spent on tobacco, alcohol and women. However, some people plan to save money to save money.
Of course, war cannot always be so lucky. In fact, every day, people have their legs broken, their heads wide open, and their guns are beaten. The human suffering I see is uncommon. The deceased at that time, if considered to be buried, was just covered with a thin layer of soil. Sometimes heavy rain rushes to the dug cemetery, and the desolate scene makes passers-by feel sentimental. The bodies of most of the mercenaries lay on the side of the road, no one heard. I once lay next to a dead person and saw maggots rolling and wriggling on the body. I never thought that I would experience such a scene myself, on the battlefield in Afghanistan. "
Lin Rui patted him and continued to lower his head to smoke.
Crazy Horse whispered, "But the cruelty of war does not convince people. War allows soldiers to lead a tiring life of training, but it also leads them into fleeting opportunities and mysteries in life. Therefore, war is impossible. Avoid evoking all kinds of emotions and feelings. Sometimes it is a romantic history, which is like a poem in vain and can only be sent with worry.
Once I was carrying a whole squad of American infantry. Our green uniforms were all soaked and looked black, sticking to my body. There was no shelter nearby, and the downpour was ruthlessly. These soldiers carry M4A1 carbines on their shoulders, and we are waiting for orders from our superiors. As it is now, we all stood still, without saying a word. What can i say?
Do you want me to say that they stood bravely, persevering, standing upright, determined to take on the burden of war, and endure the torture of the bad weather? But careful observation, their eyes and indifferent expressions make me feel nothing. Where are the typical characteristics of American optimism and liveliness?
Does the rain make them think of their hometown? Thinking of hometown countless miles away? In their hometown, if it encounters such heavy rain, they will cover their heads with newspapers, start running, stride over the water beach, and shout and laugh. .
The same whole group was discouraged and at a loss, unable to face the misery and uncertainty of war. Are they just feeling numb, exhausted, and listless? In fact, they are all tortured waiting for battle. "
Lin Rui nodded, "It's like we are not afraid of death, but we are afraid of the process of waiting for death."
Crazy Horse pinched his cigarette and patted him on the shoulder, "So no matter what, we are waiting. And we will always die."
