Today is still the second update - and what about our own side? Even if we include the Bushmen's thousands of troops, there are only 25,000 skirmishers. Apart from a few surface-to-air missiles, some artillery, and a few infantry
With tanks and trucks, only the fortifications that have been dug on the grassland are available. Comparing the two sides, the two sides are not on the same level at all. If the upcoming rainy season had not given Zhou Jiping reassurance, I am afraid that Zhou Jiping would have
Just ran away
Now, looking at the expressions of a group of tribal leaders who were "happy to hear a victory", Zhou Jiping helplessly waited for a long time until they calmed down a little before he started to pour cold water on them.
First, be prepared to give up on the offer;
Secondly, be prepared to fight guerrilla warfare and protracted war;
Again, be prepared to return to your living situation two years ago;
After spending a long time, Zhou Jiping explained the basis for his decisions through weapon comparison and military strength comparison. As for Soyo, when it was first built, it was not planned to be done in one step. At that time, it was more about how to deceive Masuari.
So the amount of work done by Soyo's underground fortifications is much better than those ordinary houses that are of no use. However, in the eyes of the indigenous people who are used to living in thatched houses, a house that can block wind, rain and mosquitoes on all sides,
It is the best thing they have ever seen. It is easy to give up a thatched house, but they are really reluctant to give up such a good house.
Zhou Jiping can also understand the thoughts of the tribal bosses. After all, this situation is not uncommon in China. You have never seen the so-called white-collar workers in big cities who are busy all day long. People in their thirties are so tired that they have long hair.
Even though I have a sixty-year-old cervical spine, I still wish I could eat it with my fingers all day long... Hey, it's the same all over the world, regardless of skin color or high level of knowledge.
Of course, Zhou Jiping also elaborated on the fact that the upcoming rainy season is the key factor in determining the final victory of both sides. As long as you persist, whatever you lose now can be made up for; the temporary loss is for the sake of longer-term peace.
and happiness...
Zhou Jiping kept talking, directly copying Chairman Mao's theory of abandoning Yan'an: save people and lose land, save both people and land, save land and lose people...
As he was talking, suddenly a flash of lightning flashed through Zhou Jiping's mind - the rainy season. He knew that the rainy season would bring great changes to the war. Didn't Masuari, a warlord who grew up in Africa, know this? Didn't he?
I wonder if the war does not end before the rainy season, he will be trapped in the Imara grassland and unable to escape? Is it really the rainy season, a season that makes East Africa miserable, forcing Masuari to take risks? Will he have any chance?
What other purpose is hidden?
This thought just flashed in Zhou Jiping's mind, and it passed. Now it was time for him to convince several tribal leaders to support him, instead of thinking about the problem. Zhou Jiping could only think and analyze it slowly during the war.
, and Zhou Jiping also has this self-confidence. He was born in a country with a history of five thousand years of civilization. Those classic cases in Chinese history can't be exhausted even if he talks about them for days and nights. Naturally, he has to talk about war and understanding.
They know much more and see much further than the warlords in East Africa, a country that has just emerged from the barbaric era.
After finally giving lessons to Elder Jiwayo and others, Zhou Jiping briefly arranged the chores for Soyo, and then prepared to leave for the front line that afternoon to meet Huang Pihu and others. After all, that was the front line, so it would be better to rush there early.
It is easy to command and arrange. As for the fifteen noble prisoners, Zhou Jiping only needed to give them instructions to Zubei. Naturally, he did not need to worry about other things.
It turned out that Zhou Jiping wanted to go home for a meal first, meet Lais and Irene, and then see his little daughter Frye, and then rushed to the front line in the afternoon. Zubei groaned first.
Fan, hesitated for a long time before telling Zhou Jiping that Frank asked to see him, and he had been begging Zubei for a long time. Zubei saw that they had fought side by side in the past, plus Frank, Eric and Emma's relationship
The leak case really had nothing to do with it, but Zubei still told Zhou Jiping his request.
Indeed, neither Frank nor Eric had any reason to leak the secret, but Emma had a special relationship with them. If they were not locked up with Emma, it would be unreasonable. Now that they have been locked up for a few days,
It's time to hear what Frank has to say
"Well," Zhou Jiping hesitated, thought for a while and nodded: "Okay." After hearing that Zhou Jiping agreed to Frank's request, Zubei hurriedly went to pick up the person.
Seeing the way he was in a hurry, Zhou Jiping even wondered if Zubei had taken advantage of Frank. Thinking of this, Zhou Jiping was also shocked by his own thoughts. He had long heard that most rulers were of the same type as Cao Cao -
—Stubborn and suspicious by nature. Now that I have ruled this indigenous tribe for a short time, why do I have such strange ideas?
Soon, Frank arrived. To Zhou Jiping's surprise, Frank not only didn't change for the worse these days, but he seemed to have gained some weight. It seemed that he had good nutrition and not exercised much these days, and his cheeks actually had some fat.
"Boss, are you okay?" Seeing Zhou Jiping, Frank said with a naive smile. Ever since Zhou Jiping was promoted, Frank has been calling Zhou Jiping this way.
"You look good, Frank, it seems you are quite adaptable to your current life?" Zhou Jiping joked, but felt a little sorry for Frank in his heart. He knew that Emma was Welf's backstage in Soyo, and Frank and Eli
Kedu was kept in the dark, especially Frank, who had nothing to do with this matter and was really implicated.
Frank shook his head helplessly, patted his belly and said: "I have been in a bad mood these days. I eat too much. If I don't exercise, I will gain weight."
Hearing Frank's self-mockery, Zhou Jiping also smiled kindly.
"I'm here to beg you." Frank turned to the topic. Seeing Zhou Jiping listening attentively, he continued: "Eric is very sad. He begged Zubei to ask Emma, and everything is clear."
Emma agreed to Welf's coming to the grassland because of money. We all know the purpose. Of course, Emma later worked for Masuari again."
Zhou Jiping looked at Frank without saying a word and listened to his explanation of the causes and consequences.
"You know, Eric is very stupid, especially when it comes to relationships..." Frank hesitated for a moment, then continued: "Eric has a request. He wants me to beg you to let him go. He wants to use himself
His military exploits come to atone for Emma’s sins.”
