Chapter 157 Arrival
"Are you not worried that the few people you are going to catch will be no longer here?" Ashraf asked. "Maybe they have run away, and have never even been here."
Ashraf's words made Semolov sneer disapprovingly, "To be honest, I was like you at such an old age. I was worried about many things but always omitted a lot of things at the same time. But now it's completely different. There may be omissions, but I'm worried? No, I've already stopped the time and haven't been worried about my decisions and plans. Do you know why?"
"Why?" Ashraf asked in confusion. He really couldn't figure out what this guy was referring to about this question.
"It's very simple." Semolov looked at Ashraf and said, "What I have been doing is stalking, surveillance, arresting, or counter-stalking, and escaping. So I'm more confident in this matter in front of you." He said, pointing to the surroundings and said, "Before we started, I studied this area. Whether we chased them or not, the possibility of escaping here is the greatest. Because not only is it nearest, but also on the other side of the bridge, there are Georgian troops stationed in Zugdidi. You may think it sounds too simple, but in fact, many times people's ideas are not complicated, and few people will deliberately make a matter very complicated and unexpected, especially in emergency situations, they will choose the easy way to think about and the easiest way to convince themselves to solve the problem. So they must have come here."
"It's that simple?" Ashraf asked in disbelief.
Semolov nodded and said, "It's that simple." He smiled and said, "You have to understand that they took the wounded and were still hiking. Although they deliberately avoided the main roads and specifically walked some places that were rarely visited, they could not run far after calculating the time and distance. If they could still be in the hinterland of Abkhazia at this moment, they would be the real masters."
Ashraf had to admit that what Semolov said was very reasonable. No matter how he ran, if you carefully analyze the psychology of people at this moment and calculate their speed, it would be easy to judge the direction and area they could go. This seems to be not complicated, but even so, there are still big variables, that is, the Americans obviously will not sit idly by, they will definitely take action, and this action is truly dangerous.
So he looked at Semolov and said, "But there are still people who will come here. Although you have set up manpower to block bridges and main roads, and set up traps here. But I have to remind you that these mercenaries of the United States are very powerful, far from comparable to ordinary people."
"Of course." Semolov nodded and said, "I know this. Don't forget that the people I'm going to catch are also those people, and those people and those you meet are all from the same place, right? I mean they all come from a security company. But in my opinion they are not very powerful. At least they haven't reached the point where I feel beyond my imagination. I haven't even lost anyone here. So don't worry, if they really come, there will be a good show."
After being stunned for a moment, Ashraf shook his head helplessly and did not chew it again. Originally, he wanted to say that it was just because Semolov took the initiative and suddenly took action. But now it is completely different. Now it is my enemy and darkness. Even if there are too many people, who knows how they will act. And at night, their advantage of being too crowded will be greatly reduced. Maybe they have touched their side without discovering anything. What should I do then? When the other party becomes the attacking party, if the number and quality of the people coming were fighting with him before, then the Gruu in Semolov's hands are not enough to block the other party. Do you want to rely on the people of the Seventy-four Airborne Division at that time? Or rely on the Abkhazi people here? Come on. In the dark, a group of people who are not familiar with each other face a group of experienced and tacit American mercenaries, which is not helping, but causing trouble.
The reason why Ashraf didn't say anything was because he felt that Semolov could no longer listen to what he said. Obviously, this guy seemed to prove something, or wanted to prove that he was smarter, more experienced, and knew how to complete the task. In addition, the tasks he had not been completed before, but the personnel he brought were also severely damaged, which also made Semolov, who was quite smooth at this moment, feel a sense of superiority. So at this time, he said something about pouring cold water not only won't work, but will also cause this guy to ridicule and even disgust. Why bother? It's better to stay vigilant, and it's enough to play his role when the situation is out of control.
Just as the Russians and Abkhazis were searching everywhere in the small town, their target was hiding in a database called Dekaze Car Repair Factory southwest of the city that John mentioned earlier. The reason they hid here was not that they rashly broke into a car repair factory in a panic and then coerced the boss here. Instead, the boss here was originally a person who had been bribed by the Americans. In other words, these people who were broken up and fled here were not just because of the reasons Saimolov said, but more importantly, there was a bribed person here.
It is precisely because of this that they not only got a good rest here, but also gave the wounded people they had been carrying some treatment. Although the people searched everywhere came three times in total, no one carefully checked the basement full of oily and damaged auto parts, and there was even a wave of Abkhazi armed people who didn't even find the basement. At this moment, the only thing that worried about the people hiding here was how they could leave safely, because judging from the news brought by the owner of the car repair shop, there were already a large number of armed personnel, blocking all the important roads of the entire small town, and there were also patrolling vehicles loaded with armed personnel outside the city. Anyway, the entire small town looked like they were ready to go. Therefore, the people hiding here were completely unsure of what would happen later.
And on the Ingri River, after walking for about three and a half hours, at nine o'clock in the evening, John led the Helmet mercenaries and quietly arrived two kilometers outside the city of Arte under the cover of night. In other words, they had just passed the name of the Atmethon blocking point. This is why they stopped here. After all, if there is a problem, these people can quickly rely on the blocking point one kilometer away to cover their departure.
