Chapter 14 Public Execution
Mia wasn't doing nothing, as Tasnim claimed.
On the third day of the fighting in Tripoli, the number of dead soldiers rose to eleven, and more than sixty were wounded, four of whom were seriously injured.
Qin Rui redeemed two more max-level doctors and four basic doctors.
Mia spent the day helping out at the port hospital. After returning to the villa, she became quiet and withdrawn, her usual liveliness and cheerfulness gone.
"What's wrong?"
Qin Rui noticed Mia's unusual behavior.
"Brother Tiger, do you have any news about Brother Omar?"
Mia has been trying to call Omar for the past few days, but the call has been unsuccessful.
Although Libya has a high mobile phone penetration rate, signal is only available in towns and cities, and is often affected by terrain, so it is not a fully covered area.
Although it's not uncommon for phone calls to go unanswered, Mia would feel inexplicably agitated and unable to control herself whenever she thought about it.
Qin Rui paused for a moment, then said, "No."
Mia remained silent for a long while, then forced a smile: "Perhaps no news is the best news."
As night fell, Qin Rui had just lain down when he suddenly heard bursts of gunfire coming from the direction of the town.
Qin Rui immediately opened the system panel to check if the total number of people redeeming from the system had changed.
The fallen soldiers have been replaced.
Qin Rui redeemed a total of 11 companies from the system, plus Yuri, the doctor, the cook, the repairman, the nurse, the instructor, the logistics officer, the fake ID guy, as well as the security personnel around Qin Rui, Qin Liang, and Musa, for a total of 1165 people.
The remaining [Evolution Value] is 11875 points.
If he stopped there, Qin Rui could live for another ten days.
Although the gunfire did not approach the port area, Qin Rui still changed into his equipment and went down to the first floor, ready to exchange for soldiers from the system at any time.
The lights were off on the first floor. Bai Ban and two guards on night duty, wearing night vision goggles, were playing cards in the living room.
This……
Qin Rui declined to comment.
Seeing Qin Rui come down, Bai Ban felt like he had been granted a pardon. He mixed the cards in his hand into the deck and stood up triumphantly.
A guard chuckled, threw down his cards, and stood up with the whiteboard.
The other guard also got up, but he couldn't bear to throw away the cards in his hand.
Since you two love playing cards so much, let's call you "Fortune" and "Red Center".
Now we finally have the middle, hair, and white hair in our collection.
"They're probably bandits; there's no need to worry."
The whiteboard is all smiles.
"Who's winning?"
Qin Rui asked casually.
The smile shifted from the blank face to the rosy one.
Fa Cai, still holding his cards, looked slightly resentful.
Qin Rui was thinking of getting some mahjong sets sometime to fully satisfy the soldiers' entertainment needs.
We should also set up billiards, arcades, internet cafes, and the like.
We can't let the fake certificate guy be idle all the time.
Qin Rui doesn't keep idle people around.
What are you doing?
Mia was also awakened by the gunshot. She went to Qin Rui's bedroom but couldn't find him. When she went downstairs, she saw that it was pitch black and turned on the light.
The four people wearing night vision goggles were thrown into chaos.
Although the AN/PVS-14 has automatic brightness control and strong light protection functions, it can prevent equipment damage or temporary blindness caused by sudden exposure to strong light.
Strong changes in external lighting can still make users feel very uncomfortable.
"It's nothing, go to sleep."
Qin Rui comforted Miya.
Mia walked over to Qin Rui, leaned on his shoulder, and murmured sleepily, "I can't sleep."
"Oh……"
Just as Qin Rui chuckled, the total number of people suddenly dropped from 1165 to 1163.
"Turn off the lights."
Qin Rui reacted quickly.
Bai Ban darted over and turned off the light.
Make money while guarding the gate.
Red Center guards the window.
"What's wrong?"
Mia drew her P226 from the quick-draw holster on her leg.
"Go to the basement, and don't come out unless I call you."
Qin Rui was serious. In just those two sentences, four more were gone.
This is definitely not right.
The troops fought in Tripoli for three days, and only 11 fully-equipped soldiers were killed in action, averaging less than 4 per day.
Six people have died in such a short time; they must be the white-collar soldiers guarding the port.
Mia disobeyed and went to the basement, instead turning around and rushing upstairs to change her gear.
Qin Rui ignored Mia and focused on himself, exchanging for a max-level company from the system.
Then, he set the spawn point of a max-level company in the dock warehouse furthest away from himself, so as to be ready to check it at any time.
About a minute later, the number of casualties reached 12.
Qin Rui confirmed the redemption.
There are only 12 people in the dock area, including both visible and hidden sentries and patrolling guards.
After acquiring the second fully-leveled company, Qin Rui continued to operate, setting up the third and fourth fully-leveled companies at the port hospital and the logistics warehouse, respectively.
Almost at the same time that Qin Rui exchanged for his fourth fully upgraded company, the Barrett rifle above the gantry crane finally fired, and the battle broke out instantly.
In a duel between masters, life and death hang in the balance.
The battle broke out suddenly.
It ended just as swiftly.
The force that invaded the port area was the renowned French National Gendarmerie Intervention Group (GENERAL).
The team was led by Major Frederick Gallois, the current commander of the Military Police Special Service.
The French National Gendarmerie Intervention Group (GENERAL) was established in 1973. Its predecessor was the National Gendarmerie Intervention Group, founded by the legendary Lieutenant Bruto.
Lieutenant Pluto is not only well-versed in criminal psychology, but also a master of Eastern martial arts, proficient in various weapons and hand-to-hand combat.
Since its inception, the Military Police Special Service has carried out more than 1000 missions, rescued more than 500 hostages, arrested more than 1000 suspects, and killed at least a dozen terrorists.
During the course of their mission, two members of the Military Police Special Service were killed in the line of duty, and seven members died during training.
In addition, one police dog from each group died during a mission and during training, respectively.
From the moment the Barrett fired until the end of the battle, only 6 minutes elapsed.
In those short six minutes, of the 24 special operations team members who invaded the port area, nine were killed, 14 were captured including the operation commander, Major Frederick Gallois, and only one team member escaped by jumping into the sea.
A total of 14 people died and 3 were injured on Qin Rui's side.
A day later, a video went viral online.
The first person to appear on camera was Frederick Gallois.
"What's your name?"
"Frédéric Gallois, Commander of the French National Gendarmerie Intervention Group."
"Your mission?"
"Raid Zawiya and eliminate all terrorists here."
"Sorry, but to us Libya, you damned invaders are the real terrorists!"
Galois remained silent.
The camera pans toward Gallois.
Thirteen special operations team members, now disarmed and dressed in black with their masks removed, stood in a row, kneeling on the ground with their hands behind their heads, facing the camera.
In front of them were the corpses of nine men in black.
Because the military police special operations team always wears black when carrying out missions, they are also known as the "Men in Black" commando team.
The scene shifts, and Yuri appears in the frame with a cool expression.
Yuri glanced at his watch and said expressionlessly, "It is 8:15 a.m. on August 31, 2011. If we do not receive any explanation within the next 24 hours, then every two hours thereafter, one of those damned war hyenas will be publicly executed."
