Chapter 256: Labor camp

Lin Rui jumped out of the Hummer and nodded, "It's pretty good, but they don't have any defense at all. As if they had prepared, the situation would be completely different."
"It's over so soon, I haven't had any fun." Ivan shook his head and laughed.
"Then let's put a large firework again. You and Peng Lefeng go into the mine together and install it. Pay attention to destroying some of the more important support points, reinforcement areas, etc. as much as possible. We have to let this mine collapse, at least There is no way to recover in a few months. Qin Fen, you and Yelena mine are covering them." Lin Rui said loudly.
"Then what shall we do" Vitalk said.
"Let's release those locked up laborers." Lin Rui nodded and said, "Now is almost the time. Once we detonate the police, we will surely alarm the nearby rebels. And these laborers are exhausted by tossing, no If they are released early, they will not be far away. It is very likely that these rebels will catch them back. In this case, our efforts will be wasted."
"Okay, let's go" Vitak nodded and said to the black teenager Ali next to him. Then the black boy led them and hurried towards the labor camp.
"Strange, isn't there a guard here?" Lin Rui frowned.
"Because they don't need guards at all. These people are detained here indefinitely, with no trial and no sentence. Only the labor camp has food, and it must be exchanged for the specified amount of ore. They have no way to survive out of here. You too. Seeing the machine gun at the gate outside, the rebels are not trying to prevent people from entering, but to prevent them from escaping." Vitalk shook his head.
Lin Rui opened the iron door of the labor camp and said to Vitalk, "They seem to be hiding in the room. We can't find them in this way. Let the child go, let him tell the workers inside, let them talk to each other. Notice, tell them they are free now."
Vitalk said a few words to the black boy Ali. Ali nodded and quickly ran into the barracks. It is said that they are barracks, but they are actually some abandoned mines that have been mined. Most of the miners stay here, and another group is still working in the mines.
The method of mutual notification soon worked, and more and more miners gathered in the open space in the middle of the camp. Lin Rui was slightly surprised, "How many of them are there?"
"Look at this, there are eight hundred without a thousand." Vitalk said.
These miners are all ragged and unkempt. Severe malnutrition and overwork have caused them to lose weight. Everyone's eyes looked dull, and there was no even alive anger.
"Let's go, the door is there for you to be free." Vitalk shouted in local words.
But no one moved. These miners looked at them hesitantly, not daring to move.
"Go and run along this road, cross Highway 7, and you will be free. There are refugee shelters, food and beds, and even doctors. Go, go," Vitalk shouted anxiously.
The miners still looked at them tremblingly and suspiciously, without any intention to move.
"What's wrong with them" Lin Rui frowned.
"It should have been frightened for a long time. They have absolutely no power to resist. Starvation beatings and various physical and mental persecutions have caused their mental breakdown." Vitalk shook his head, "I don't even have the courage to escape. ."
"Then use a gun." Lin Rui picked up the gun and shot it in the air, then said to Vitalk, "Tell them that anyone who refuses to leave will be shot on the spot."
This time his method worked. The miners who were persecuted by death squeezed out the labor camp in a panic and ran north along the highway.
Lin Rui sighed helplessly, "These guys, how do they treat these laborers can make people like this. I've heard how miserable the black slaves in South American plantations are. I didn't expect to be here as black people. , General Denby was able to cruelly enslave his own compatriots."
"Let's go. I finally rescued them." Vitalk shook his head.
"Well, what's wrong with that kid." Lin Rui saw the black teenager Ali squatting at the door of the labor camp and sobbing while doing something more.
"We are late, and his family doesn't seem to make it through." Vitalk sighed. "The gestures he made are a kind of local tribal witchcraft ritual, mostly used to remember the dead."
Lin Rui sighed and said, "Tell this kid that I am sorry about this, but he must also go with other people. It would be dangerous to stay here. Especially after the explosion, a large number of enemy troops are likely to say arrive."
"Can't we keep him?" Vitalk hesitated.
"Of course not, what do you want to escape to the refugee camp north of Highway 7, he will be well taken care of. And by our side, he will be at war at any time, and if the bullet does not grow eyes, he will die. Are you willing to do this?" Lin Rui frowned.
"I understand what you mean, but this kid is too pitiful." Vitalk said slowly.
"Because he is poor, he can't be with us. To live is better than anything." Lin Rui walked over and patted the child on the shoulder, then turned and left. "Tell him well and give him some food. But don't give him too much, and don't give him money. Too much food and money will be coveted by people, and maybe it will kill him."
"It's not easy to live, especially in this world. In many cases, it's lucky to be alive. To live well, child." Vitalk sighed and handed Ali some of the food he had with him. Sheng said a few farewell words to him, then turned and left.
Lin Rui and Vitalk came to the mouth of the mine and found Yelena and Qin Fen. "How is the situation inside" Lin Rui whispered.
"Those working miners have also been evacuated, but Ivan and the others are still inside, and the resettlement is progressing smoothly. I just talked to him, and they will be able to come out in at most ten minutes." Qin Struggling, "How is your side."
"You don't believe it, we almost rescued thousands of workers. They were squeezed in abandoned mines and forced to work for a long time every day in exchange for food for barely subsistence. Many people were skinny and skinny. It's too miserable." Lin Rui shook his head, "It is even more ironic that the people who arrested and enslaved them claimed to be the Liberty Liberation Alliance."
"General Dengby has never been shameless, just get used to it." Qin Fen shrugged. . .
