Chapter 2679: Suspicious target

"But how do we find them? Can't we send people out to search blindly?" Crazy Horse asked.
Jiang An thought for a while, "This is not too difficult. Let's look at the map. This is the firefighting area between the Dinka and Nuer. So these child soldiers will definitely not be active in this area. They are trained and very alert. , Knows how to protect yourself. Look at the other areas, these areas are the active areas of other large tribal armed forces, and the child soldiers shouldn't be near them. Otherwise, their existence would have been known to everyone."
"It makes sense." Lin Rui nodded, "So, where do you think they will be active?"
"First, they will avoid all large tribal armed forces. Secondly, the location they choose should be very remote, but it is convenient for them to looting a few nomadic tribes. After removing the above two points, the area left for them to operate is not large. "Jianggan pointed to the map and said, "They have received military training from secret society armed forces, and they must know how to choose the most advantageous terrain. They must be concealed, but also good for defense. At the same time, there is less left for locations that meet such conditions. .
So as long as they analyze their possible areas of activity and compare them with the satellite images provided by Cobain, they should be able to find something. "
"Well, I think I can try it. This matter must be resolved as soon as possible." Lin Rui nodded, "Actuarial, you give Kebain their current possible areas of activity, and let him intercept satellite images of these areas. "
Jiang An nodded and turned to the tactical computer to discuss with Cobain.
In the afternoon, Jiang An took out a somewhat suspicious satellite image and came to Lin Rui.
"Is there a result?" Lin Rui asked.
"It's not sure yet, but there are a few locations that are very suspicious." Jiang Jian pointed to one of the pictures, "Especially here."
"The border area between South Sudan and Ethiopia?" Lin Rui frowned. "Is there any evidence?"
The shore nodded, "There are some. On April 16th last year, Gambela in Ethiopia's South Sudan border area was attacked by a group of militants, killing 170 people. The local houses were destroyed and the animals were killed. In an inhumane and vicious attack. The head of the Ethiopian Government Information Office, Getach Rida, stated that the attackers were members of the Murle tribe in South Sudan, and pointed out that the Murle tribe had stolen livestock and children.
But in fact, this incident has nothing to do with the Muller tribe. They may steal livestock but not children. "
"Do you think it's the child soldiers, do they have the ability to do such a big thing?" Crazy Horse said in surprise.
"I think it is them. First of all, because of the tension in South Sudan, a large number of refugees fled to Ethiopia. This provided them with targets for attacking refugees without attracting much attention. Moreover, they acted viciously and did not leave a living. No one would. Link such incidents to a group of children.
In addition, on the satellite image, we found that there are frequent vehicle activities in this hilly area, and the movement is very regular. So I asked Ke Ben to investigate here, guess what we found? Jiang An looked at Lin Rui and said.
"What did you find?" Lin Rui frowned.
"A well-concealed shooting training range is located in this area. Although it has been carefully covered up, part of it is still exposed. This is an enlarged picture. We can clearly see that this is a shooting range. Child soldiers active nearby. There is no known armed organization in this area, so we believe this shooting range is one of their training grounds, and their camp is also there." Pointing the shore to the coordinates on the satellite map Tao.
Lin Rui looked at it carefully and said, "Yes, this looks like an artificially sorted field. It is obviously different from the surrounding natural grassland. It should be rammed with lime. You mean these escaped child soldiers are here. New camps have been re-established and training grounds have been set up. They have also enriched the team by stealing nearby children."
"Yes, there are no other tribes in this area, so they crossed the border into Ethiopia, plundered other children, and caused tragedies there." Jiang An sighed.
"This is too exaggerated. They are just children." Crazy Horse frowned. "They will build their own camp, and they will train and grow their own team?"
"Children are the most talented imitators, and everything they learn is through their imitation and learning. Once these children are trained by the secret society to become soldiers and have their own organizational structure, they can easily follow their own Instinctively to live. After leaving the secret society, a leader must have emerged among them, making these abandoned child soldiers reorganized. And in accordance with their previous training camp habits, continue their Spartan style Military life." Jiang An replied.
"So it seems that they are really dangerous." Crazy Horse shook his head.
"Yes, they are very dangerous." Jiang An nodded.
Lin Rui pondered, "In this way, they are only less than 20 kilometers away from our location."
"Yes, this also perfectly explains why they attacked our convoy." He put down the photo in his hand and sat down and said, "The question now is how we deal with them."
"According to your previous idea, we have to try to enter their camp and control their leader. Then force them to lay down their weapons and surrender." Lin Rui replied.
"But what if it fails?" Crazy Horse sighed, "This is a group of children whose humanity has been extinct. They can shoot and kill people without asking why. But we can't, let's be a mercenary. For many years, my biggest headache has been encountering child soldiers. A little carelessness will kill myself."
"The Yankee is the Yankee." Sergey shook his head. "We have even beaten the Red Baron, and we are afraid of the child soldiers under him. Are you kidding me?"
"He wasn't joking. These children can live independently and gather into an armed force after they are out of the control of the secret society. Although it is due to various conditions, they themselves cannot be ignored." Lin Rui thought for a while, "This For the next operation, it is better for us to do it ourselves. Leave this to Ahu to control, actuary, you stay to assist Ahu.
"Then how? I can't stay here all the time, watching you go desperately?" Jiang An frowned.
"Listen to me, Ahu is very capable, but this person is not good at communication, and has an impulsive temper, and is sometimes prone to bad things. Let him stay alone, I am not at ease. So you can stay and coordinate between him and Jonathan The relationship between the two, stabilize the situation here." Lin Rui explained. "After all, this is the focus of our mission."
