The following morning, soldiers were going round the camp searching if there were intruders, General summoned militia leaders to his office, and six leaders came whilst soldiers salvaged the situation in the militia camp Thomas and Robin were shocked they recalled the strangers they encountered recently.
"I think those two men are the ones who invaded our camp," Robin said.
"That's right it was a wise decision not to have told major, we could have been in a hot soup" Thomas reiterated.
"We could have been in the gage with the hostages," Robin said.
Robin saw one of the generals moving towards where they are.
"Here is general coming let's move from here," Thomas said.
They moved faster and joined soldiers patrolling to ascertain if intruders were still hiding in the camp.
"Here is where the intruders passed through the perimeter wire was cut," the captain said.
"What were they after?" Cornell asked.
"We have to check if ammunition is in the armory," the captain said.
They rushed to the armory to check if ammunition are in place Cornell opened.
Captain went around the Amory to ascertain if all the ammunition is in place.
"Everything is in order," the captain said
"How about the military carrier are all around?" Cornell asked
"That very dangerous if it was taken," the captain said
They rushed to the yard to check if bulldozers and military carriers were taken.
"Everything is intact nothing has been taken," the captain said.
"What were these people after" Cornell asked.
"Maybe they were on an assassination mission but they failed," the captain said.
That is true, they wanted to assassinate our major general "the captain said.
They are well-trained mercenaries, they could have assassinated the general without anyone knowing" Cornell said
"These are international mercenaries who are well trained who assassinate people in government," the captain said.
"The general and other leaders are in the meeting they need our report now," Captain said.
"That is true we need satisfactory answers that will not affect us in the long run," Cornell said.
"That's true we will tell them it was an assassination attempt but the soldiers managed to contain it," the captain said.
"That is a good idea or else we are going to be thrown into the gage with the hostages and we lose our position in the military" Cornell reiterated.
The Major General came in other military leaders stood and saluted.
"Sit down!" General roared in anger.
"Good for nothing soldiers, how dare you let intruders infiltrate our camp!" General Billowed.
Leaders stood and saluted.
"You good for nothing majors you are useless," the general said in frustration.
Cornell and the captain came into the room major general stood.
"Do you have any information regarding the attack?" General asked.
Captain and Cornell look at each other.
"I am waiting for your answers" General roared
"Yes", Cornell said.
All the generals stood and looked at the captain and Cornell with hopes of getting answers.
"Sit down" the general ordered.
They all sat.
"Cornell gives us your finding now," generally said.
All militia leaders became attentive.
"Sir", it was not an invasion, it was an assassination attempt," Cornell said.
General stood removed his pistol from his pocket placed it on the table.
"Again" general Tom was assassinated, they want to assassinate me?" General roared.
His did you know that and how did you prove it?" General said
"Sir they didn't take anything everything in the camp is in order all ammunition is in place even the military carrier and bulldozers are there," Cornell said.
That is true I remember how general Tom was assassinated professional mercenaries were hired to assassinate him" generally said.
"Thanks to our soldiers they managed to contain the situation," Cornell said.
"What other things show it was mercenaries?" General asked.
"They killed soldiers in the watchtower by use of a silencer they utilized four bullets to kill them" Captain responded.
"I have confirmed that truly it was highly trained mercenaries," generally said.
"I congratulate my soldiers for protecting me I could have been killed," the general said
Cornell and the captain looked at each other and smiled they managed to convince the general that it was a failed assassination attempt.
"They heard a chopper approaching the camp.
Boss is coming he has heard what has happened in our camp" the general said.
"Where are the gold we brought for him in the village?" General asked.
"We have them in the store intact" Cornell responded.
"I know they are coming with his white friend Smith to bring franc to pay the soldiers," generally said.
Soldiers realizing that the chopper is approaching cleared the place to land, and generals came out of the meeting the chopper landed Steve and his white friend Smith came out of the chopper.
"Hallow general," Steve said.
"How is everything in the camp did they take our ammunition," Steve asked.
"No, it was an assassination attempt sir' the general said.
"Assassination attempt how comes?" Smith asked.
"They didn't take anything all the ammunition is intact," generally said.
Smith and Steve shook their heads and followed the general into the office.
"I hope they were not targeting you sir like general Tom we lost him that way," Steve said.
"Our soldiers managed to arrest the situation nothing to worry sir," the general said.
"How are the soldiers doing," Steve asked.
"They are doing good, that's why they managed to contain the situation," the General said.
"We need to do business quickly, my friend smith will be taking a flight to Italy where are the gold" Steve asked.
"We have enough gold but I am not seeing the money?" General asked.
"Money is in the chopper" Steve responded.
General asked the captain to bring gold from the store captain hurriedly brought the gold and placed them on the table Smith opened and examined the gold.
"This is the best gold ever," Smith said
Steve removed one particle and examined it.
"It's true the best gold in the world is found in Africa (DRC) The democratic Republic of Congo," Steve said.
Smith, we to the chopper and removed two briefcases and brought them to the office.
"Here is money for the gold" Steve handed over.
General received and opened it was full of money
"Here is another briefcase for the p*****t of the soldiers" smith handed over the briefcase.
General opened and it was full of money.
"This is a good deal I hope you will come very soon to take other gold its in the store waiting for you to bring money," the General said happily.
Steve and smith laughed at Thomas.
As they talk Thomas looked at the briefcase full of money he was very surprised.
"Take this box to the chopper," generally said
"They picked the box was very heavy they held carefully and took the gold to the chopper.
"You are laughing at me why?" Thomas said angrily to Robin
"It was not me it was general and the visitors they are making fun of you since you fear injection," Robin said
"You remember when we were bruised by the two men in the forest when we came back we went to the dispensary we were given injection you screamed," Robin said.
I remember Thomas kept quiet they took the gold to the chopper the pilot received and placed it on the chopper.
"I would like one day to fly in a chopper it's an unforgettable adventure," Thomas said.
Yeah, it's a pleasure to fly on a chopper "the pilot said.
In the chopper he saw more briefcases and other boxes of gold, Robin was very surprised at how rich Steve and smith went back to where they are Manning.
"I think we are being exploited here people from other countries are taking advantage of our situation in our country to stop us," Robin said.
"That is a sad reality we are fighting one another, it is an opportunity for other people to top our resources like gold," Thomas said
"When are we going to be free from this quirk mire?" Robin asked.
"It will take centuries for us to realize that," Thomas said sadly.
General and his visitors came out of the office, the soldiers guarding the office saluted they went towards the shop, and Steve and smith boarded the chopper and flew as the general looked at them vanishing in the cloud.
"Cornell let's organize a party for our soldiers this coming weekend for the good work they did," generally said
"Yes that is a good idea," Cornell said.
"Also tonight we are going to pay them their salaries, there is an increase in their salary," the general said.
Cornell and the captain looked at each other in happiness, in their mind they knew that they lied to the general about the assassination attempt and the general bought the idea.
"Order soldiers to come for the parade" generally said.
The siren rang all the soldiers were assembled on the parade Robin and Thomas thought it was time to punish the soldiers who didn't perform at the time of the invasion.
The major general came to the parade soldiers saluted.
"Thank you soldiers for saving my life, I could have died like general Tom but you saved me" generally said
The soldiers looked at each other.
"Again today I have increased your salaries up for an extra fifty percent" Major general added.
Soldiers hysterically clapped in happiness but were very surprised to hear that since they were ready to be punished for the invasion that happened recently.
Also today you are going to be paid your increased salaries and over the weekend you will be having an extraordinary party.
The soldiers started an early celebration when they heard what the major general said.
"You are free to go to your places of work" major said
The soldiers dispersed from the parade.
