Katanga Province is adjacent to the three countries and is located in the center of Africa, which naturally shows its value. Therefore, there is no shortage of heroes in this kind of place. It has always been you who sing and I come on stage, warriors from all over the world.
We come here for different purposes to participate in this grand event, which is simply more lively than going to the winter market.
Fortunately, the days of many heroes and heroes have passed. At least during this period, the situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo is still very good. The head of state, Mobutu, has not yet begun to fall ill, and the warlords in each province have been almost wiped out.
There are still some guerrillas squatting in the jungles and mountains who are still running around. It can be said that Shepard was still doing well when he arrived.
At present, the armed forces in Katanga Province, in addition to the National Defense Force, are several large and small mercenary groups. These people are security guards hired by various foreign-funded companies. In addition, there are guerrillas led by Karabi, who is a heavyweight.
He was a close comrade-in-arms of Che Guevara. His rookie performance during the guerrilla war left a huge psychological shadow on Che Guevara. He even became the leader of the country after Mobutu stepped down.
Apart from these forces, the rest are just bandits and bandits, some from Angola and some from Zambia.
After understanding the general situation, Shepard nodded and sent Mr. Manfield away first, and promised to be a guest at the Standard Company's oil camp the next day.
Then, in a temporary tent, Shepard summoned the few captains he had so far and held a regular meeting.
The combatants currently owned by Shadow Company were divided into two teams by Shepard, Team A and Team B. Team A is the old man of the company and is headed by Plumli, while Team B is a new addition and the commander is
Former Ranger Major Johnson, nicknamed Hannibal, was kicked out for spreading a sense of defeat at the rear base, but Shepard suspected that the bigger reason might be because he beat up his boss in the dark.
Hemiplegia, otherwise he wouldn't have such a topic with Plomri.
"Everyone, since you have chosen to join Shadow Company, the development and growth of the company in the future will depend entirely on the efforts of all of us. The trip to Africa is not only a task, but also an opportunity for us. This land
The land is fertile soil for contractors, and whether it can bear fruit depends on how we cultivate it. Therefore, I hope that everyone can unite closely and obey the leadership. The company will not treat you badly. Starting from tomorrow, we will
Everyone’s treatment, from basic salary to war zone status, has been adjusted!”
"Then we will follow sir!"
Hannibal is a happy man. His wife divorced with their three children and he had to pay a lot of alimony, so he took a very positive stance.
"Well, if you have any opinions or suggestions regarding our actions in Katanga, just say so!"
"The first thing is intelligence. We need a more detailed map, at least we need to know where is where!"
"There are also weapons and ammunition! We only carry the minimum number of weapons and ammunition!"
………
Each team and team commander put forward their needs one after another, and Shepard took note of these one by one. It was not until the meeting ended that he breathed a sigh of relief.
"You should be in the army, not in a place like this!"
Before Hannibal left, he praised Shepard in an appreciative tone.
As for Plomri, before leaving, the old guy threw him an unopened can of chickpeas. This was his dinner tonight.
The next morning, as soon as Shepard woke up, he heard the bustling shouts outside. He walked out of the tent in confusion and saw many vendors holding large and small bags outside the barbed wire fence of the camp gate trying to rush the sentries on guard.
He was selling goods, but the latter kept driving the hawker away with a gun, and the two sides started to quarrel like ducks in a row.
"Hannibal, you take care of those at the door. Remember, don't let the brothers eat local food casually!"
"give it to me!"
It wasn't that Shepard was cautious about poisoning, he was worried about the non-combat attrition caused by indiscriminate eating, especially now that the medical team and follow-up personnel had not arrived, otherwise they would not have blocked the door with a double layer of barbed wire.
Hannibal went up and shouted angrily, and then drove all the vendors out with signs and curses. These black uncles were very disappointed to see that there was no business, but they could only walk away unhappy and go to other places.
Do business locally.
Then, everyone in the camp began to clean up the camp again. It was not until noon that a jeep drove into the camp with half a load of mud. The person who came was none other than Manfield from yesterday.
The other party came to take Shepard to visit Standard Oil's facilities in Katanga.
The main target of Shepard's work is the Standard Company's oil refining and transportation facilities. These pipelines and machines, which wind for hundreds of kilometers, are often attacked and destroyed due to their wide distribution and difficulty in protection, even though they have increased their own security.
, but still couldn't solve the problem. Of course, they were not the only ones who were beaten, there were also several mining companies. However, after the black uncles attacked the other party's transport truck, they found that a truck of stones was useless. So from then on, the mining company
The company's transportation fleet rarely takes a beating.
Because it involved business, Shepard brought several team leaders, kept Plumli behind, and then followed Manfield to the opponent's territory.
The person in charge of the factory is a middle-aged man who looks to be sixty years old but is actually in his early forties. He is from France and his name is Jean Reso. According to him, the conditions were very poor when he first came here. He got malaria and almost died here.
, but fortunately, the oil was successfully pumped out in the end.
“This is a reward for my hard work!”
"I see it!"
Shepard nodded, and then let Leisuo take him to take a look at the pipelines from the oil wells. Industrial food rushed through these thick pipelines, and then entered the factory and turned into various oils.
It is loaded into a train and finally sent to the tanker at the port.
"You need to hint at patrolling pipelines, oil wells, and in addition, the company's logistics fleets, especially those carrying cash. We will give local employees cash to settle their wages every month, and these fleets will also be attacked. Therefore, Mr. John
, your task will be very heavy!"
"We have a helicopter, so it should be easier!"
Shepard took a look at the map hanging in the other party's room. In addition to detailed pipeline routes, there were many map marks on it, and he immediately asked.
"Can you lend us a rubbing of this map?"
"That's no problem. I just don't know when your company can start working?"
"Just wait until the end of this week and our helicopter will be in position!"
