Adil was not only smelling bad, but also swallowed two mouthfuls of muddy water. In addition, he was temporarily deafened and had a slight concussion caused by the shock wave of the explosion.
Not to mention how uncomfortable Adil was at this moment, his stomach was churning like a river, and he lay on the ground and vomited. Not only did he vomit out what he had eaten in the morning, but he almost vomited out bile in the end. There was nothing left to throw up, so he lay on his back on the ground.
The medical staff accompanying the team rushed over to check Adil's body. They saw that there were no injuries on the surface of Adil's body. They felt relieved and gave Adil some water and asked him to lie down and rest.
After a while, Adil suddenly opened his mouth wide, turned his head to the sky and let out a howl like a wolf, mixed with a slow howl of grief, anger and unwillingness: "Find them"
In this explosion, six Tuareg people were killed and injured on the spot. Adil also suffered a concussion and fell into a muddy pond, which made him stink. After Adil recovered a little, he immediately pointed to a hunting trail leading to the southwest valley and yelled: "Chase"
So hundreds of armed men, with infinite anger, rushed past Adil, spread out along the hunting trails, and walked through the mountains and forests in search formation, thinking about the valley to the southwest. The chase continued.
Not long after, another militant triggered a grenade booby trap, blowing up a Tuareg man. Adil then became even more convinced that this group of enemies who were extremely damned must have fled in this direction. With the help of others, he staggered after him and ordered that he must catch up with this group of damned enemies at all costs. Mercenaries, eat them alive.
Soon after the group of armed men rushed over and ran towards the southwest valley, Lin Rui and his men stretched out their heads and stretched out their heads from the forest on one side.
Lin Rui raised the telescope and observed it for a while, then said with a smirk: "Okay! These Tuareg people have gone crazy, and they probably won't turn around and come back soon! Let's leave quickly! Get rid of them completely before dark! "
So a group of people followed with a smirk, carrying the rabbit on the stretcher, heading in the opposite direction of the militants, that is, on their way, staggering a certain distance, and walking through the forest.
Adil was supported by his men and staggered forward on the road. The impact of the explosion made him dizzy, had a headache and nausea, and the ringing in his ears made him irritable. In addition, he took two mouthfuls of muddy water that smelled worse than shit, making his mouth full. The smell was all over my nose, and I was so disgusted that I kept retching. I could only drink water to rinse my mouth and wash my nose to suppress it.
Supporting him, he followed the troops and chased forward until dark, and no trace of the mercenaries was found again.
After nightfall, they could no longer continue the pursuit, so they had to camp in the forest. Adil forced himself to illuminate the map with a flashlight, discussed with his officers, and judged based on the map where this group of damn mercenaries would escape. .
But after much deliberation, they all decided that the direction was southwest. They thought that this group of mercenaries had made enough money after doing such a thing, and now they must be thinking of withdrawing to the base camp as soon as possible, so they decided that this group of mercenaries could only head due west. Or they fled to the southwest, but they couldn't determine where exactly they had fled to.
After they encountered a booby trap in the afternoon, they did not encounter any more booby traps laid by this group of mercenaries along the way. However, they still walked very carefully along the way and completely lost track of this group of people in front of the sky.
Adil stubbornly concluded that after repeated battles, the grenades of this group of mercenaries should have been exhausted, so they could no longer lay out booby traps and believed that they were escaping in the southwest direction.
Most of the Tuareg armed officers under him thought so, but two tentatively asked whether this group of mercenaries would change direction midway and escape on the way they came.
But such an argument was unanimously opposed by other militants, and some even mocked the militant officer who put forward this opinion with disdain, thinking that it was absolutely impossible.
¡°It¡¯s too late for these mercenaries to run away now, how could they possibly turn around and go back? The fact that they have done such a thing is enough for them to go back and receive the reward. Why do they have to turn around and go back? That is simply throwing themselves into a trap.
No one with a normal mind would do such a thing, not to mention judging from the behavior of these mercenaries these days, they don't look like people with abnormal minds. Therefore, most militant officers determined that this task force of mercenaries must have escaped to the west or southwest.
Even Adil has the same opinion.
 ?The forest is dense, the forest has deep ravines, it is inaccessible, and wild animals are infested. Generally, few local people venture into this area of ????mountain forests.
To the east of here is the narrow plain area in the east. To the southeast of here, there is a small town, but there is a train station. A long time ago, passing trains would add coal or water there, making it a train station. dispatch station.
This railway was built by the French during the colonial period. It is only a one-way line. The trains coming and going need to be dispatched at the train stations on the way. Therefore, the trains transporting supplies to the militants must stop here and catch up with the trains coming in the opposite direction. The wrong train turned the station into a temporary material storage and transportation base.
With the increase in the strength and combat needs of the Tuareg militants in the central and southern areas, coupled with the supplies that Lin Rui blew up, the militants experienced a shortage of food and ammunition in a very short period of time.
They had to seize the time to transport various supplies from the north to supplement their combat needs.
In the original plan, the Tuareg militants originally planned to let Adil occupy Gao first, and then join forces with the third regiment to break through the Malian army's defense line and attack the southern rear of the Malian army.
But because of their shortage of supplies, they had to delay, which also gave the Malian army on the east bank of the Niger River more time to prepare. A large number of Malian troops were mobilized along the central route and were deployed on the east bank of the Niger River, blocking the way for the militants to continue to advance into the central part.
Previously, the Third Regiment attempted a surprise attack. However, due to the strong resistance of the Malian army, the Third Regiment failed and lost hundreds of elite troops.
By now, both warring parties have realized that the Tuareg continue to attack the hinterland of Mali and have lost the best opportunity.
And as the situation on the battlefield developed, the Tuareg appeared to have successfully attacked the Malian army, catching the Malians by surprise and causing heavy losses to the land along the northern route.
However, as the Malian army was provoked and fought back, the two armies engaged in many exchanges of fire. It seemed that the two sides were tied. However, in the battle in June, the Tuareg actually completely lost strategically. This war.
Because no matter what method they use. None of them could undermine Mali's defense foundation.
The four or five large-scale military fortresses of the Malian Army support each other and form a joint defense that is still unbreakable.
This line of defense gradually became a turning point in the entire battlefield. The Malians successfully contained the offensive launched by Tuareg militants in the north, forcing the militants to switch to the defensive.
Immediately afterwards, the Malian army began to attack and counterattack again. The two armies are now engaged in a fierce battle around several fortresses that Lin Rui had deployed before. The war was quite fierce, but the Malian army, under the command of General Actuary, had a solid offensive and defensive basis. , playing quite calmly.
At present, it seems that the Tuareg people are beginning to show signs of decline on the battlefield, and they are no longer able to sweep everything like before.
As the supreme commander of the Tuareg people, Azzam has realized that it will become more and more difficult for them in the future. As the strength of the Malian army grows and recovers, they will most likely turn to the defensive in the central battlefield. , the future war is developing in a negative direction.
Therefore, he began to consciously step up the transfer of supplies to central Mali, and ordered the third regiment to start building a defense line against Mali.
So now, the railway, as a strategic transportation artery, has become their lifeline to support the front-line troops. Every day, trains are loaded with various ammunition, food, medicine, and various supplies, and are transported to the central part of the country.
As a major military town, Gao¡¯s ownership is becoming more and more important. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
