Chapter 870 Before your butt gets hot, the mission is coming
the next day.
As the person in charge of the operations assigned here, Soto summoned everyone from Team B to the conference room early in the morning, including the newly added foreign aid Long Zhan.
The conference room on the ship was very small, and 10 people were packed inside.
Jason, Sonny, Clay, and Brock came first and occupied the only couch in the room. All metal could only sit on the armrests of the sofa.
Directly in front of the sofa is a wall with a large projection screen hanging on the wall.
There is a table in front of the projection screen with a projector and computers on it.
Diaz, as the current intelligence expert of Team B, is standing on the left side of the screen with Soto, the black team leader, which is where he is leaning against the door.
Ray is now an intelligence warrant officer in the 1st Operations Group and can no longer sit down there like before.
So standing on the right side of the screen, there is a young woman standing next to him.
Because the CIA and the military are in conflict, but it is impossible to completely cut off each other, they can only arrange personnel as a buffer.
Lei's current role is that of a buffer for the military, responsible for communicating intelligence with the CIA.
In the past, people were sent directly to the army to tell the intelligence, but now they have to hire a special person to act as a microphone in the middle, and the military also has to send soldiers out to obtain it personally.
In Long Zhan's personal opinion, this is completely equivalent to taking off his pants and farting.
However,
This is politics.
Long Zhan, because you are a foreign aid, you live in a single dormitory, unlike the rest of Team B, who all live in a big shop.
Therefore, Long Zhan was the last one to come over, and everyone else was already there when he entered.
"This is Long Gibran, a newly transferred foreign aid. He once worked in the B team for a period of time. You guys know him, so I won't introduce him too much."
When Operations Officer Soto saw Long Zhan coming in, he introduced him casually with a blank expression.
Apparently, there was a strong repulsion in the heart of Long Zhan, who had close contact with Jason yesterday and identified Long Zhanshi as his current enemy, Jason.
Then he pointed to the white female officer next to Lei, who was over 1.7 meters tall, and said: "This is Senior Sergeant Mina Hassan, a cryptography expert and special activities expert.
She has been active in West Africa over the years and developed many valuable intelligence personnel.
And established an amazing intelligence network that is enough to support our operations in the region.
During the eight weeks of this deployment, she will serve as our local liaison officer, responsible for communicating and coordinating intelligence with Lieutenants Ray and Diaz.
Please welcome his arrival."
After Soto finished speaking, he took the lead in applauding, and everyone in Team B below cooperated sparingly.
"Jason is right, this new officer is really a bit crazy."
Long Zhan casually clapped his hands twice, his eyes passed over the skinny black officer, and the corners of his mouth raised with a hint of disdain.
Then I glanced around the room and saw that there was nothing left to do.
He took two steps to the side and sat down on the desk next to the wall. His huge body pressed against the fragile table, making a creaking sound.
"It's a pleasure to meet you. Time is running out and you have taken action."
As soon as Mina finished speaking, Sonny interrupted and complained: "We just came here, and we haven't even sat down to warm our butts. We have a mission so soon?"
It is a characteristic of seals to complain before taking action, and Sonny has carried this characteristic forward even more.
"Yes."
Mi La nodded expressionlessly, pressed the remote control in her hand, and a picture popped up on the screen.
A young black man with one hand pointing a gun at the sky, wearing a short-sleeved camouflage uniform washed white until it turned white, and a black turban on his head.
"This man is Oruku Atenga, and he is considering surrendering to us.
Atenga was a senior Boko Haram leader who had lost hope in his organization and wanted to help stop the violence from continuing."
After Mina finished speaking, she looked at Lei.
Lei continued: "Currently, he has undergone preliminary review by the CIA and is in constant contact with the CIA. If we can pull him over, the other party's actions will be very helpful."
"excuse me, may I ask."
Long Zhan interrupted Lei's words and asked curiously: "Atenga is already a senior member of Boko Haram, and Boko Haram is a radical organization.
He climbed from the bottom to the top step by step, and it is impossible that he has not experienced violence.
Now he has suddenly decided to surrender to us on the grounds that he no longer supports violence in the Holy Land of Berk. Don’t you think this is suspicious?”
Long Zhan's questions hit the key points and won the recognition of others.
They all turned their attention to Lei.
"According to the information I obtained from the CIA, the contact person who brokered Atenga's surrender was the local Cameron and warlord Elondobi Musa. Whether it is reliable or not is not yet completely certain."
When Lei said this, he looked at Mina next to him and asked: "You are very familiar with this area. Is Musa reliable?"
"Moussa's track record there is mixed, and I'm not sure whether he is reliable or not."
Mina pressed the remote control, and the character on the screen was replaced by a 30-year-old black man wearing white glasses and a red hat, with a very attractive expression.
He continued: "But in the past ten years, he has been leading his armed organization to fight against Boko Haram. From this point of view, he should at least not be a member of Boko Haram."
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend? Based on this?" Long Zhan raised his eyebrows and said.
"That's right."
Lei nodded and interjected: "So our first task now is to assist Musa. The specific details will be relayed to you by Mina."
After Lei finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to Mina, indicating that she would do the rest.
Mina introduced calmly: "A village under the protection of Musa, named Manaka, was recently deprived of food by Boko Haram.
Moussa's two deliveries of food and medical supplies were intercepted by Boko Haram militants, resulting in the death of Moussa's personnel and the robbery of all supplies.
Therefore, in the next third delivery,
Team B will accompany Moussa as bodyguards.
"When we arrive together in Manaka, Musa will fulfill his promise to hand over Boko Haram's Atenga and the information he possesses to us."
What Mina said was very concise and to the point, and the content of the task was explained clearly in a few words.
But people like Team B here are not satisfied.
"It sounds good, but I don't think this routine is new." Full Metal joked.
"Team B was in Afghanistan before and did similar tasks for warlords." Jason frowned deeply, obviously the results in Afghanistan were not good.
"It means that before we get Atenga, we still have to work as a delivery driver for Musa?" Clay asked.
"Same routine, different clown." Sonny sarcastically said.
