    Lin Rui thought for a while, "Even if it is not easy, it is better than using a large number of troops to attack. After all, our defense progress cannot be slowed down."

    "Then how many people do you want to take?" Colonel Neal asked.

    "We must first understand the situation there. Then we can formulate a plan. Within a week, we will ensure that Ackerley can be beheaded." Lin Rui replied.  "Given the current situation in Kidal, even if more troops are used, it may not be possible to achieve significant results within a week."

    Colonel Neil nodded, "As long as we can solve Kidal's problem, a week is nothing."

    "What's the latest information on Kidal? Your troops are currently fighting there, so there should be the latest information." Lin Rui asked.

    "Kidal is located in the northeast and on the south side of the Ifras Mountains. It is 285 kilometers away from Gao in the southwest and is connected to it by a 342-kilometer straight unpaved road. The residents are mainly the nomadic Tuareg people.

    Ackley was originally a Tuareg, a bandit leader who led a group of men across the desert.  Later he joined the Tuareg Liberation Organization and became a warlord.

    But he later rebelled and defected directly to Al Qaeda in the Maghreb.  Relying on the power of terrorists to grow rapidly.

    Since the withdrawal of the French, he has occupied Kidal with arms.  Because this man was an armed bandit, he had a group of desperadoes around him.

    ¡°Moreover, this person has been dealing with the Malian government forces all year round and has a lot of guerrilla experience.  After he occupied Kidal, government forces counterattacked many times, but without good results.

    Because Kidal has a very special environment, there is a large military fortress there.  All of Arkley's troops were there.  "

    "Is Ackley himself in that fortress?" Lin Rui asked.

    "Yes, and he also controlled a primary school near the fortress. At least 200 children were forcibly recruited by him to become child soldiers. The average age of those children was only twelve years old." Colonel Neil replied.

    ¡°What can a group of twelve-year-old kids do? Isn¡¯t this terrorist a bit stupid?¡± Sergey mocked.

    "Don't underestimate these children." Eric shook his head, "I served as a child soldier for a while and I know what it feels like.

    ¡°These kids can pull the trigger without hesitation, and that¡¯s enough.  Because my children are simple enough, they don¡¯t know what is right and what is wrong.

    Give them a gun and tell them that if they kill one person, they will be rewarded with a lollipop.  These kids dare to open fire on anyone.

    ¡°Imagine what we would do if a large army of us fought and a group of children rushed up from the opposite side?

    If you hesitate even a little bit, they will shoot directly at you with their guns drawn.  Faced with such a group of enemies, do you kill or not?

    If you don¡¯t kill them, they will kill you.  But once you kill them, you are a murderer of children.

    ¡°Whether it is the Malian government forces or mercenaries like us, once they are equated with the slaughter of children.  There will be big trouble later.  "

    ¡°It¡¯s not just that, if these kids rush up wearing bomb vests, they will be the most deadly.

    They are too young and do not have the ability to think independently.  Being fooled by someone's few words may lead to very extreme behavior.  Colonel Neil said with a bitter smile, "Well, I would rather face a group of dangerous adult enemies than face such a dangerous child."  "

    "So these people should all die. If you ask me, all those who train children to fight should die." Eric said slowly.

    Child soldiers have always been an ugly presence in war. The United Nations has long issued a statement prohibiting countries from recruiting children under the age of 15 as soldiers.

    ¡°But this situation is common in countries in central and western Africa, especially in some war-torn areas.  Almost one in every ten children is a child soldier, either a rebel or a gang member.  In Congo, there were once as many as 30,000 rebel fighters who were children and teenagers.

    The reason why Africa has such a habit is because of its longevity.  Some African countries are extremely backward, with average life expectancy even lower than 40 years old. This has led many people to believe that child soldiers are no longer "children".

    Secondly, child soldiers are cheap, eat less, have low requirements, and their combat effectiveness may be weaker, but they can do things.  Also, children like ak47 very much. In their eyes, as long as they have this "toy", everything is satisfied.

    Child soldiers cannot use these "toys" at will, only on the battlefield, so they prefer to go to the battlefield. Only in this way can they use these "toys".

    All over the worldp; If I want to lead a group, I have to be responsible for group command, which is not what I am good at.  You should know that snipers are lonely.  "

    "If this is the case, no one can assist you when you take action. Even if you succeed, it will be a problem to evacuate." Lin Rui frowned.

    ¡°When I was eight years old, I was sold by the Tuareg people to an armed group as a child soldier. I don¡¯t know how I survived, but I just survived.

    I know how to hide myself, and I also know how to successfully retreat from dangerous areas.  You don't have to worry about this.

    ¡°And if you let me act alone this time, I owe you a big favor.  No matter what you want me to do, I won't refuse.

    You know, I¡¯m not talking about mercenary missions, but I can do everything for you.  "Eric said slowly.

    Lin Rui was silent for a while, looked at Eric and said, "This is against the rules again. The risk of acting alone is too high. When acting, even having an extra helper by your side can greatly increase your chance of survival.  "

    "The overall risk is still the same. One more person just shares the risk with another person." Eric replied.  "In this case, why not let me bear it alone?

    And since I have taken all the risks, I will be more careful and less prone to making mistakes when I act.  "

    Lin Rui couldn't help but smile bitterly, "So you've made up your mind to do it alone? Can't I give you two more helpers?"

    "No." Eric said firmly.  "As you said, this is a task and a personal grudge. Personal grudges should not involve other people."

    "I originally wanted to help you with a few helpers, so I don't have to go there myself. It seems that I can only come here by myself." Lin Rui said slowly, "I'll go with you."

    "Boss, there is no need for you to take risks. You have much greater responsibilities than me now. Thousands of brothers in the entire company depend on you for their lives.

    You are the president of the company, so you should not take risks.  Eric frowned.

    "This is the truth. However, I am not a boss at heart. If I am asked to do nothing but give orders and watch my brothers take risks, I am a bit unable to do it.

    Since you must go, I will go with you.  Don't worry, I won't interfere with your actions, I'm just supervising you.  Lest you get affected by mood swings and screw up the mission.  "

    Eric smiled bitterly, "Actually, there is really no need to do this. I said, if you let me act on my own, I will already accept your love."

    "Nonsense, this is not all for you. I still have to be responsible to my employer. If you don't let others follow you, I can only supervise the execution of this mission myself." Lin Rui smiled.

    "You're just too bored." Eric looked at him and said.

    "Absolutely. In recent years, the company has become larger and larger, and there are more and more people. Many things no longer require me to do it myself.

    I can¡¯t be too idle. I¡¯ll get fat easily if I¡¯m always in the headquarters giving orders.  If this continues, I will become another Fatty Dragon.

    ¡° But I don¡¯t have the ability like Fatty Long. I can still be so flexible even though I¡¯m so fat.

    So I can only always look for opportunities to move myself and stay in shape.  "Lin Rui smiled.

    "Are you really going to go with me?" Eric asked in a low voice.

    "Am I still your boss? Are you questioning my decision?" Lin Rui frowned.

    "Okay. But Ackerley belongs to me, so don't interfere. Just watch from the side." Eric replied.

    ¡°I¡¯m not really that free and have to be the executioner. I¡¯ve said it before, this time I¡¯m just playing a supervisory role.

    As for what to do, you make up your own mind.  Also, remember you owe me a big favor.  "Lin Rui patted him on the shoulder.
