Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 39 Fear has become a habit

ps: Let’s look at the three hundred laps of Gorgeous Snow Fruits and ask for recommendation tickets, tickets, where are you?

Early the next morning, Li Lan and Muhammad were waiting at the base early.

Ahmed has been very busy since yesterday. A company of mobilizers was sent out to serve as scouts, scattered and hidden on both sides of the road from outside the security area of ​​the base.

The other mobilized troops in the base also entered a state of preparation and began more intensive patrols. High sandbags were also erected on the fence.

Although in the eyes of ordinary people, Somali militants generally have not received formal military training, but in the face of a large number of militants, even if they are mobilized soldiers with basic training, the pressure is not small at all.

Perhaps in the eyes of Mohammedi and others, these mobilized soldiers are all qualified soldiers, but in Li Lan's eyes, these mobilized soldiers can only be regarded as a group of recruits who have undergone simple military training.It can't be compared with the current soldiers in various countries in the world, and at best can only be regarded as reserve.

This point can also be answered from the name mobilized soldiers.

From the perspective of the military camp, in the Soviet Union, military service means coming of age. For boys and girls, this is the only way for them to become patriotic citizens.Moreover, similar to the advent of adulthood, military service cannot be chosen.Such opportunities abound, mainly depending on the young people’s academic performance and family background, whether they end up sitting at a desk or crawling behind a machine gun, they must do their best to serve the honor of the motherland.

Most of these young Soviet men who joined the army did not have superior physique, intelligence, or a good background.But once they have been trained and equipped, they are no longer the hairy boys of the past, but glorious mobilizers.

Most of the millions of mobilized soldiers enlisted are very young—in fact, they have only recently joined the army.The mobilized soldiers are convinced that fighting the enemy of the Soviet Union will achieve certain victory and great glory.Soldiers who have served their term of service will receive generous rewards, which is the main reason why they can remain fanatical when performing near-suicide missions.Despite lack of rigorous training, they are equipped with large-caliber assault rifles, as well as highly volatile, low-cost, and tried-and-tested bombs (Motorov cocktail Motospira) carried in their bags.

In the game, the mobilization unit is basically a consumable unit. Due to its low cost, it is suitable for mass production to gain an advantage in the initial stage (especially when building removals).However, because the defense and attack power are too weak, it is easy to suffer the fate of complete destruction.Mobilization is the basic combat capability of the Soviet army.The advantages are reflected in their extraordinary courage, determination, conviction, and fully competent attitude (alas, strong and vigorous, and owed to death).

Now, the defense of the entire base must be entrusted to these mobilizers.For Li Lan, this is a no-brainer choice.Compared with the basic arms of the two camps in China and the United States, which can carry machine guns at any time, the mobilizers are really weak.If he could produce Chinese soldiers and American soldiers now, he would need another five hundred of these two arms, and he would not choose 1,500 mobilized troops.

In his eyes, even the level three elite mobilizers cannot be compared with the level one American soldiers or Chinese soldiers.Therefore, after he learned that as long as the authority can be smoothly upgraded, there will be these two trump cards in the basic arms, showing an expression of excitement.

However, even if the real strength of the mobilized soldiers is in his eyes, it does not mean that he has no confidence in these soldiers.The combat effectiveness of an army that can fight for faith cannot be measured by ordinary means.

Now, the entire base needs to be guarded by them. Li Lan has reason to believe that as long as there are not too many enemies to deal with, or the kind of weapons and equipment, the security of the base is still guaranteed.

If it is said that according to the current strength of the base, facing the US military, then Li Lan definitely goes as far as he can.They don't give you the opportunity to fight on land at all. A few cruise missiles can simply destroy this place.

Of course, let alone those Somali armed forces, even the Puntland government forces do not have long-range precision strike weapons or air forces.

In land warfare, there will be no asymmetrical gap, Li Lan will choose to compete with Bosasso's forces.

"Are you afraid?" Li Lan asked seeing Mohammed who was a little nervous next to him.

"Fear, living in Somalia, I feel scared every day. I am afraid of being killed by a bullet that I don’t know where I am flying from. I am afraid of not knowing when the bomb will explode around me. I'm used to its existence." Muhammad smiled bitterly.

"No need to be afraid. I will deal with it in accordance with the previously negotiated countermeasures later. I can't die of heaven." Li Lan was satisfied with Muhammad's answer and said seriously.

Looking at Li Lan’s firm eyes and serious face, Mohammedi nodded, changed the subject, and said: “When I went to Bosasso and Mr. Farah to trade weapons that day, he already knew that we passed Bo The Minister of Armed Forces Sasso bought food from international food merchants. He also knows that the funds obtained after trading with him are to pay for the food ordered."

"Then what did he say?" Li Lan asked.

"He suggested that if we want to buy something next time, we can go directly to him or give him a call. He told me that if the deal was done by him, with the same effort, we would get better Now it is at least doubled. The price of food has always been high in Somalia, and when the armed minister sold us the food, the price was nearly doubled. Therefore, we only bought it for 3.2 million US dollars. That thing."

Li Lan naturally understands this. The US$3.2 million is not a small amount even if it is placed in China.According to China's food prices, all the money was used to buy rice, enough to feed two thousand people for five years.

And he only exchanged food for half a year. In addition to buying low and selling high by international grain merchants, the Minister of the Armed Forces of Bosasso must have gained a lot of benefits from this.

Regarding Farah's words, Li Lan could only say that he did not understand the energy of the other party at that time.

"What else did he say?" Li Lan continued to ask.

When Mohammedi answered this time, he specifically lowered his volume and said: "He seems to have known our purpose of hoarding food, and when he sent the textbooks, he called me and said that there will be food in the future. If you have any difficulties, you can go to him for a fair price. At the same time, he also vaguely pointed out that he also hated the greedy armed minister."

"Mr. Farah, he is really a caring person." Li Lan shook his head and thought for a while: "It is absolutely impossible for him to know our thoughts. He said this to you is actually a fraud. How did you answer. "

"I didn't say anything, nor did I answer his questions directly." Muhammad said.

"It is basically impossible to buy so much food and fuel at such a high price without arousing suspicion by others. But now, we don't need to pay attention to these, and it is enough to do the things in front of us." Li Lan said.

He knew this from the beginning, and he couldn't hide it from others, otherwise he wouldn't keep giving gifts to the minister. Naturally, he considered his concerns.Now that the food and fuel are in hand, naturally there is no need to worry about them.

"I understand, about..." Muhammad said, and then he seemed to hesitate for a moment. There was something he didn't know how to tell Li Lan.

"What do you want to say? Don't be restrained." Li Lan saw that Muhammad had something to say, but was afraid to say it, and said immediately.

"In fact, I have always felt that Mr. Farah will be a good friend of ours in the future, because he has made a lot of initiatives that have made substantial contributions to the Somalis." Muhammad took a deep breath and said calmly.

"I also have a good impression of him, and I really want to make friends with him. I just hope that there will be no conflicts of interests or beliefs in the future." Li Lan smiled slightly: "After this incident, I will find time to meet He has a good talk."
