Supreme Golden Pupils - Chapter 649 High-Level Meeting

Moreover, the conditions offered by the visitors are extremely generous, promising to provide the RUF with a large amount of funds and weapons, and follow-up assistance will continue. What they want is for the RUF to unify the entire territory of Sierra Leone as quickly as possible, and then pay The mining rights for one-third of the domestic diamond mines are only, and this price is not too high for the benefits that Foday Sankoh can obtain after the event is completed.

After weighing the pros and cons, Foday Sanko couldn't hold back the temptation in the end, and agreed to the terms of the visitor. In his opinion, no matter what plans the Tiger Mercenary Group had, at least the benefits he got could not be faked. With the improvement of strength, even if there are any changes, it can be dealt with.Big fists are the last word. Foday Sankoh, who started his career with a gun and spent half his life as a soldier, knows this very clearly.

And just as the civil war in Sierra Leone was in full swing, we negotiated cooperation with Foday Sankoh. The person who started the war had left the center of the storm far away, and quietly returned to Mali through Guinea. His true identity It's Captain Condil of the Wild Lion Mercenary Headquarters.Foday Sankoh would not know that the benefits he swallowed were just bait, the first moves to promote a game of chess. After the move that decided to start another war against the Sierra Leone government army fell, the subsequent game of chess was out of his control , and his fate has already been sealed.

In fact, if Condil told Foday Sankoh his real identity, perhaps this deal would be easier to conclude, because Mali, where the Wild Lion Mercenary Group is located, does not border Sierra Leone, and there will be no direct conflict of interest between the two , unlike the Tiger Mercenary Corps, everyone inside knows their ambitions for Sierra Leone.

However, the reputation of the RUF is too bad.Foday Sankoh is famous for his cruelty and bloodthirsty. He has an army composed of kidnapped children. In order to completely cut off the way for these children to return home, Sankoh invented a brutal method: he ordered The subordinates used guns to force these teenage children to rape their mothers and sisters, and then forced them to kill their own relatives, exterminate their humanity, cut the temples of these children, stuffed them with cocaine, and then these The children will be dragged into the jungle, and if they want to survive, they can only accept the thief as their father and listen to Sankoh.

For the RUF, the most brutal army in the world, beatings and massacres are commonplace. The most heinous thing is that the baby army often uses various tortures such as dismemberment and heart-gouging to torture their enemies. Its name is "psychologically deterring the enemy", and they are a group of psychopaths.It is also because of their actions that the Sierra Leone Civil War has been called the bloodiest civil war in the world.

Such a notorious force, the Wild Lion Mercenary Group, which has a good reputation both in the circle and among the people, is unwilling to get involved.

It would be wonderful to use the name of the Tiger Mercenary Corps. Everyone knows their ambitions for Sierra Leone, and it is easy to understand their collusion with the RUF. Being held in the head by this shit, the Tiger Mercenary Corps wants to take it off It's all difficult, and Ling Shaonan still has many means waiting for them!Completely stigmatize the reputation of the Tiger Mercenary Group, and deal with them at that time will occupy the status of righteousness. It will not only achieve the goal, but will not arouse the vigilance and hostility of other mercenary organizations. Expanding the control range of the Wild Lion Mercenary Group several times can be said to serve multiple purposes.

Freetown, a meeting room of the Sierra Leone Presidential Palace, is currently holding a highest-level meeting, chaired by President Tejan Kabbah himself, and all cabinet officials including the Minister of Defense and Foreign Affairs are present.However, what is a little inconsistent with the gorgeous decoration of the meeting room is that the faces of many government officials are not happy, and all of them are full of dignity.

In particular, President Kabbah, who sits at the top, looks even more livid. He was kicked out again because he was worried about the instability of the domestic situation. The partial power-sharing agreement made great concessions to the RUF, allowing them to obtain things that they could not obtain on the battlefield, and had a huge room for maneuver and power.

I thought that Sankoh would be honest after tasting such sweetness, let Sierra Leone regain the long-lost peace, reshape and improve his prestige, who would have thought that Sankoh would be so careless, and would turn his face and deny anyone as soon as he ate the meat , This is tantamount to slapping Kabbah hard on the face!

"Mr. Minister of Defense, please explain the current situation to everyone first." Kappa knocked on the table, breaking the suffocating silence in the meeting room, and opened his mouth to the first person on his right, wearing a military uniform. The Minister of Defense said that he did not call the other party by his name but his title, showing his attitude unabashedly.

Originally, in the reorganization of the new government, the post of Minister of Defense was to be concurrently held by Kabbah. However, in Sierra Leone, where wars continue, anyone with a brain knows the importance of military power. Therefore, the original Minister of Defense has been reluctant to hand over. And this caused Kabbah's dissatisfaction, but he didn't expect that this delay would drag such a big trouble on his head.

"Mr. President, everyone, the current situation is very grim." At this time, the Minister of Defense didn't care about the annoyance, and cut straight to the point with a gloomy face.

"In accordance with the Lomé agreement signed in July, the ECOWAS peacekeeping force has been withdrawn from our country and has been replaced by the 'UN Mission in Sierra Leone' to oversee the safety and security of all combatants including government forces, RUF, civil defense forces and paramilitary organizations. The work of disarmament and formation of a new army has started more than two months ago. In response to the UN resolution and in exchange for more international support, our government army is the first batch of disarmed troops.

I have to say that the timing of the RUF's choice is very good.The number of government troops is not large, only more than 14000, and two-thirds of them are temporarily recruited. The military quality is very bad. When disarmed and completely defenseless, the number and quality of soldiers are several times stronger. The RUF raid caused heavy losses, and now it has retreated to the outskirts of Freetown, temporarily stabilizing the line of defense.But this is mainly because there is a UN mission of thousands of people stationed in Freetown, otherwise the situation would be even worse. "

By this time, there was no need to hide it for the sake of saving face or keeping one's position. The Minister of Defense simply said something. He briefly explained the current bad situation in the shortest of words, and then let out a long breath. Leaning on the chair dejectedly, he remained silent.

As for what the so-called "worse" means, although he didn't say it clearly, anyone who is not a fool can guess that Freetown has also been captured, and they can only flee as they did a few years ago to establish a government in exile abroad.Or even more serious, if you are directly shot dead or captured alive by RUF soldiers without even a chance to escape, then it will be completely over!Thinking of the abnormality of Foday Sankoh and the cruelty of his RUF soldiers, all the high-ranking officials present couldn't help but shudder, and felt a chill rushing from the tailbone to the forehead.

"Okay, gentlemen!" Seeing the group of people cowering like terrified quails, Kabbah felt very upset, but he didn't want to say anything, lest the already low morale would drop to freezing point. Neng knocked on the table and attracted their attention: "Don't discuss what has already happened. Now we need to discuss what to do next. Once the demon Sanke succeeds, he will attack the Forbidden City." Lidon, I think everyone knows what the consequences will be, the tragedy caused by that bastard Koroma two years ago who led the wolf into the house, everyone should have not forgotten."

Speaking of this, Kabbah suddenly realized that these words were suspected of spoiling his own prestige, which seemed a little inappropriate. After a slight pause, he changed his tone, and cheered up everyone: "Of course, Sanke will return this time. It is not easy to repeat the history of two years ago. Thousands of soldiers of the UN Mission are not vegetarians. They not only represent the United Nations, but also represent their own countries. Sankoh is not so brave enough to attack them. , to the point of being an enemy of the whole world."

After Kabbah said this, the faces of the high-ranking officials finally looked better. That’s right, if Sanko was really that crazy, things would be easier to deal with. Britain, the United States and other countries who have lost face will not let him go first. They people Instead, you don't have to worry as much as you do now.However, what they don't know is that if the history has not changed, Sankoh really made a big splash in front of the world half a year later. He led the RUF soldiers to openly challenge the United Nations, kidnapped more than 500 peacekeepers and sent them to the United Nations. Taking hostages is a unique and unique event in the history of the United Nations.

It can be seen that there is nothing absolutely impossible in this world, and the thinking of a madman is incomprehensible from the perspective of a normal person.If you know this, it is estimated that the hearts of these high-ranking officials who have just let go will be lifted again.

Of course, due to Ling Shaonan's intervention, history has deviated from the original track. The current Foday Sankoh is regarded as a pawn and involved in the battle between the two mercenary groups, the Wild Lion and the Tiger. Does he still have any? The opportunity to complete that "feat" is nothing but two things.

After letting go of the biggest stone in their hearts, the thinking of these high-ranking officials has also become active. They are not all idiots or idiots who only want to gain benefits, and they still have a little ability to sit in their current positions.For example, the Minister of Foreign Affairs quickly put forward his own ideas: "Mr. President, everyone, I think, since it has a huge restraint effect on the RUF, why don't we ask for help from powerful countries such as Britain and the United States? If they are willing to exert pressure or even directly Sending troops, why worry about a RUF?"
