Chapter 4688: Mercenary Guide 2

Gardez did not act abnormally, he behaved normally. Act with the mercenaries, prepare weapons and ammunition, and plan the course of action on the map.
Looks like a professionally trained soldier. But this is also consistent with the mercenary status he mentioned before.
"Intas Village is not too remote, but it is very close to the border. On this side of the village, there is a small valley. There is a mountain pass that is guarded all year round.
Almost all the villagers in Intas Village are armed. They were originally a nomadic tribe, and they were members of a large tribe themselves, and they also maintained a fairly good relationship with several other influential tribes.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, government forces will not trouble them. So they provide protection to Ramul all year round, and Ramul's two sons are also in the village. "Gadez whispered, "If we are going to find them." It is best not to take the road, because several villages along the road are related to them. "
"In other words, these villages will inform them?" Lin Rui frowned and asked.
"Yes, it is almost certain. Most of the villages voluntarily inform them, and some have been coerced and have to act as eyeliners. And these villages all rely on the road.
If our vehicles pass by, it is very possible to alarm them. The worst result is that we are still on the way. Instead, the Entas Village had received news. In this case, we will either encounter an ambush, or we will be empty.
Intas Village is only 2-3 kilometers from the Mali border. If they get the news in advance, they can easily escape even on foot. "Gadz replied.
"Then don't take the big road. Is there a small road here?" Lin Rui asked, pointing to the map.
"You mean this road? Originally there was a road here, but it was not completed. The roadbed is almost destroyed. I suggest that we don't go from this side. We'd better go the other side." Gadz said on the map A line is drawn on it.
"Where is this?" Lin Rui asked.
"This is a road to another city. Niger's military vehicles usually pass through this road. So there are military vehicles on the road and it doesn't attract much attention.
After we arrived at the intersection here, we left the main road and took this fork. From the other direction, it takes more than half an hour to reach Intas Village. This way, they can avoid most of their eyeliners in the villages along the highway. "Gadez pointed at the map and said.
"This plan seems feasible." Sausage looked at the map and nodded.
"Then follow this plan. Let Gardez lead the way, and everyone will start after two hours of preparation." Lin Rui nodded. "Scarface, protect your guide."
"Understood." Scarface nodded.
The convoy set off two hours later, and they followed the route provided by Gardez. There were no problems along the way. When passing by a Niger government army checkpoint, Niger soldiers warned them that there was a dangerous area ahead.
But seeing how this group of people dressed, the Niger soldiers knew that this group of people would never listen to them. Because the weapons they carry with them look like mercenaries. For these mercenaries, even those from the Niger military are reluctant to provoke them.
Because most of the mercenaries of these private military companies have backgrounds in Western powers. All of them are desperadoes themselves, and what they make is money for their lives.
So the Niger soldier looked at them and waved to let them pass.
The convoy followed the route provided by Gardez, turned at an intersection, left the main road, and entered a fork on the side. Sure enough, within half an hour, the outline and lights of Intas Village could be seen.
"We have to park the car in a hidden place on foot. Otherwise, the sound of the vehicle's engine will attract the attention of the enemy." Gardez whispered.
"Without vehicle support, our firepower will have to drop by at least a half. What if there is a crossfire?" Sergey turned to look at him and asked.
"We can keep some people here, in case we are exposed, when we need rescue, we can let them rush to the village quickly." Gadz said in a low voice.
"In this way, we not only have to reduce the number of vehicles, but also reduce the number of people. The total number of people who can actually enter the village is only 10." Sausage shook his head. "If the other party has a lot of people, we are likely to be at a disadvantage."
"It is indeed possible, but the other party has to find us first. If we can not be discovered by the enemy, the advantage is entirely on our side. If we want to fight hard, even if so many of us rush in together. It may not be able to catch Ramul." Gadz nodded.
"He was right." Lin Rui was silent for a while. "Let's do as he said. Turn off the lights and park the car in a hidden place. Each car leaves two people on standby. After receiving our signal, we will meet us at the entrance of the village.
Sausage, you are in charge of commanding the entire backup team. The rest of the others, all follow me. You are responsible for protecting the guide. He is familiar with this area, and his safety is very important if his actions are to be successful. "
"Understood." Scarface nodded.
These mercenaries parked their cars in a secret recess, and then approached the village of Intas on foot. All buildings made of red clay look very deserted and dilapidated.
For centuries, the villages built with red clay can be said to be a classic example. The earthy architecture of Africa has largely inherited the Berber tradition.
Since the soil is not easy to conduct heat, even if it is strongly baked by the temperature of 40 ° at noon, the residential buildings are very ventilated. Walking in the shade does not feel hot, but it is very cool.
Houses are built on the mountain, stacked in layers, and clustered into villages. From a distance, the castle-like villages are all built with red clay. The river is surrounded by towering walls. Now some walls have collapsed, but you can still see them. To the original shape. The river bank under the village is interspersed with some low vegetation and tall palm trees.
Gardez whispered, "The Berbers call these houses Casbass. Most of the houses are divided into three floors. The ground floor is a stable, the second floor is a granary, and the third floor is a residence. We have to be careful about the houses. The sentry on top."
Lin Rui observed with a binoculars, and there was indeed a faint figure shaking on the roof. In the night vision mode, the silhouettes of these figures became clear, and they all looked like militants carrying weapons.
Indistinct, at least four or five, distributed in different directions.
