"Such a big battle?" Lin Rui was a little surprised.
"There are more. The report I got recently stated that the fighter jets responsible for this anti-terrorism mission include 2 Mirage F-1CR tactical reconnaissance and attack aircraft, 6 Mirage 2000-D fighter jets, and 4 Rafale fighter jets. Among them, Mirage The F-1CR is stationed at Bamako International Airport in Mali, and the rest are deployed at the N'Djamena Military Airport in Chad.
Due to the poor conditions of air bases in Africa, the French army¡¯s most advanced Rafale fighter jets are mainly deployed in Saint-Tizier on the mainland. They rely on aerial refueling and use Algerian airspace to conduct raids on occupied northern Mali. Some French media also believe that the French army may have dispatched Mirage F-1200 fighter-bombers. This old-fashioned fighter plane is time-tested, reliable and has been a frequent visitor to France's previous non-military interventions. In addition, the French army also deployed the Army Aviation Gazelle light attack helicopter in Mali. "Silver Wolf replied.
"Are you preparing for a large-scale attack?" Lin Rui frowned.
¡°It is a large-scale joint operation aimed at thoroughly combating and cleaning up extremist terrorists in the Sahel region.¡± Silver Wolf replied.
"Where are the Americans?" Lin Rui frowned.
"They are more conservative, but they also promised to provide logistics and intelligence support, and did not promise to dispatch ground troops. But they do not rule out the possibility." Silver Wolf nodded.
Lin Rui smiled bitterly and said, "The Americans have a consistent attitude, but if they really take action, they will be no more ambiguous than the French. Aerial strikes and drones alone are enough for these extremists to drink a pot."
"So the focus of our mission has also been adjusted. From the initial training and support of the joint forces, it has been changed to be more responsible for logistics and base maintenance." Silver Wolf nodded.
Lin Rui smiled and said, "That's good. We have to deal with such a big scene, so our manpower is a bit stretched. Putting more efforts into logistics means that we don't need to invest too much in assisting in operations. "
"That's right, that's why I can give you leave. Use this time to replenish manpower. The O2 team I want is a short and powerful knife. It can be hidden and not used at ordinary times, but when it is used, it can be seen after unsheathing it. Blood." Silver Wolf looked at Lin Rui and said. "Do you understand what I mean? You are a delicate and sharp scalpel, born to make precise cuts, not to go into battle to chop or chop vegetables and meat."
"Understood. I will lead the team back to St. Keizer Island tomorrow." Lin Rui nodded. He understood what Silver Wolf meant. Silver Wolf had been emphasizing to him before that O2 was a special team used to perform special tasks. If such a team was only used for fighting, it would be a huge waste. It's like a scalpel that can perform precision surgery, but no one will use it to chop hard bones. Firstly, it is not suitable for use, and secondly, it will break its sharp edge.
Silver Wolf looked at him and nodded, "Go ahead and let your brothers relax. They have been tense enough during this period."
Lin Rui nodded, and one day later he led the team back to St. Keizer Island, which is the real home of the Black Island mercenaries. The sunny beaches, palm trees and the simple smiles of the island residents are not the main thing. The main thing is that here, they can temporarily forget about the rain of bullets, wash away the smell of blood and gunpowder, completely relax, sleep a few good nights, and get drunk. A game, or find a few girls to vent your excess energy.
During Silver Wolf¡¯s absence, all affairs on the island were temporarily taken care of by Angel. Angel is a good logistics management expert. Everything on the island, including logistics facilities and basic buildings, was planned by him. The residents of the original two towns on the island have now expanded to four or five towns connected to form a residential area, not far from their military zone.
The residents on the island also have access to electricity and running water. Of course, for the use and maintenance of these public facilities, they set up a company to make full use of the labor resources of local residents. In addition, Angel also established two repair shops, trained and hired island residents to provide them with logistical services.
When Lin Rui went to find Angel, he was inspecting the ordnance repair station. When he heard Lin Rui coming to see him, Angel walked out on crutches.
"You are really busy." Lin Rui smiled at him and said, "I thought you only knew how to open a bar, but I didn't expect you to be proficient in everything."
"Hmph, do you know how much manpower and material resources are needed to maintain a base?" Angel sneered, "When Fatty Long chose this place, he chose this place because of its location and the residents on the island. A base is the most important thing The most important thing is logistics work. How many people can a military company like ours afford to hire for logistical support? But by using the islanders on the island, we can provide them with job opportunities, and they have indeed solved these problems for us.
Take this repair shop as an example. It only needs some excellent technicians to lead them, and they can provide us with firearms andMaintenance and repair of machinery. It saves us a lot of money, and they can also benefit from it. Do you think this is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone? "
"Okay, I don't want to listen to your economic accounts. Silver Wolf asked me to come to you and say that you have some good candidates who can be used to supplement O2's personnel losses." Lin Rui nodded and said, "You Are you going to introduce these islanders to me and let them join the O2 team?"
"Don't underestimate them. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. These islanders have lived on the island since they were young. Not to mention anything else, there are not many people in your O2 team who can match them in terms of diving without oxygen bottles." Angel He shook his head.
"What I want is a special operations team member, not a diving expert." Lin Rui shook his head and said, "I hope you can recommend some reliable experts to me, not some novices."
Angel tilted his head at him, "Follow me, I have something to show you."
Lin Rui followed him into the office. After Angel sat down, he took out a book of information from the drawer and placed it in front of him. "You want me to recommend some reliable insiders to you? Then let me tell you, insiders are usually not very reliable. And the reliable ones are usually not insiders."
"How do you say it?" Lin Rui frowned.
"Because the experts are all well-known people in the mercenary industry. And to be honest, such people are not very reliable. Because if he were reliable, he wouldn't be alive today. You have to use a To understand a person's abilities, you have to tolerate his shortcomings." Angel shook his head and said, "No one is perfect in this world, just like the helpers around you now.
Sergey is a heavy drinker and talks a lot. Crazy Horse is a good man in commanding the team to fight, and his own abilities are not bad, but he is difficult to control. Yelena is an expert sniper, but she is prone to taking risks and lacks a sense of the overall situation. Even you are deeply flawed. So everyone has shortcomings, don't expect to be perfect. "
