Snow Leopard never expected that the support Canglong mentioned was actually a small army, but after contacting Canglong, it was not surprising that the soldiers in this camp had sophisticated weapons.
But what he is curious about is, what does Canglong use to raise such a small army?
"Based on what I know about you, you won't spend money to support an army of cosmetics." Snow Leopard asked, "So the financial source of your army is worth pondering. Could it be said that you are selling drugs here? Or are you kidnapping and extorting?
?With your current financial resources, you won’t be able to spend them all in a few lifetimes, so why do you still need to do this?”
"Interest." Canglong only said two words.
"There's no need to scare me, you wouldn't do such a ridiculous thing. Speaking of which, how many secrets do you have hidden in your body? Even Li Ruomo doesn't know these details about you." Snow Leopard muttered.
"This is the reason why I can live and survive." Canglong didn't care, "If all my details were known to you, I might be lying in a morgue now."
Xue Bao nodded. How much information Canglong has means how many chips he has. How many chips he has means the greater his utilization value. It is also a symbol of strength. Strength is the basis for people like him to survive.
"I used to think that you should be alone, but I didn't expect that you actually need support." Snow Leopard said.
"Strictly speaking, this is not an army. Although many of them have gone through more brutal training than the special forces, I have never regarded them as my support. It's just that I have to deal with sog this time.
, so I pulled them out." Canglong said calmly, "As for the financial source of this army? Don't worry, I don't sell drugs or arms, let alone those dirty kidnappings and extortions, because that makes money.
For just a few dollars, there are only 108 real combatants in this camp with a total of only 600 people, but they are all elites and only work for the Mexican government."
"Working for the Mexican government?" Snow Leopard became even more confused, "An army to deal with drug traffickers?"
"Excluding the most basic expenses, they can earn me about 100 million U.S. dollars every year." Canglong said with a smile, "Any enemy that the Mexican government forces cannot deal with will be invited to take action. Of course, it will cost a high price. The only thing that is different from drug traffickers is
Yes, the drugs and weapons seized during the battle will be sold to the Mexican government. As for what they will do with it, that is not our business."
"Damn it, do you still have any humanity? This is making war profits." Snow Leopard looked at him with disdain.
"At least, they don't work for those Mexican drug traffickers, they only work for the government forces." Canglong didn't care, "What's more, it seems that I am not the one who really made the war fortune."
"You always have your reasons." Snow Leopard was very indignant about the things Canglong did. This was indeed a huge profit. It is conceivable that this small army is hired by the government forces every year, which not only requires the Mexican government to pay a high price, but also requires the Mexican government to pay a high price.
And everything they seized was sold to the Mexican government for a fee.
For example, the seized drugs were all sold to the Mexican government at market prices. Didn’t the Mexican government destroy the drugs after they finally got them? As for the weapons, the Mexican government could still make use of them, so Canglong’s army was making great use of them.
The windfall of war.
That's why Snow Leopard was so indignant that after Cang Long Anhao's next action, Snow Leopard left Cang Long's office without saying a word and went for a walk outside the camp.
Soon, he discovered one thing. Most of the soldiers here were in their twenties. The youngest were 17 or 18 years old, and the oldest was only in their 30s. In China, those who are 17 or 18 years old are still young.
When they are in school, or even when they are not in school, their lives will not be about dealing with guns and drugs.
The resentment in his heart couldn't help but get deeper and deeper. He felt that Cang Long was so inhumane. He just wanted to make war fortune in Mexico, but he recruited such a little guy to work for him.
"In the restricted area ahead, no outsider can enter without the permission of the general." Snow Leopard was about to go to the other side of the camp, but he didn't expect to be stopped by someone.
He turned around and discovered that it was the young man from just now. He had a gun in his hand and was looking at the Snow Leopard with a wary expression, as if he would take action against the Snow Leopard at any time.
"Is that the general you are talking about?" Snow Leopard pointed to the building in the distance, "This bastard really knows how to enjoy himself, and he even gave himself such a title."
"If you dare to insult the general, I will kill you." The young man's expression changed and he warned Snow Leopard in broken Chinese. It seemed as if Snow Leopard was going to shoot if he insulted Cang Long.
"What kind of ecstasy soup did he pour into you? Are you so loyal to him? Or has he brainwashed you?" Snow Leopard couldn't help but wonder.
"The general has not brainwashed us, but we respect him from the bottom of our hearts." The young man said seriously.
Xue Bao didn't expect that he would get such an answer. A warmonger like Cang Long made a fortune in the land of these children, and these children actually respected him. This was simply ridiculous.
"I'm surprised that you still respect him when he uses you to fight with your own compatriots on your land?" Snow Leopard shook his head and sighed, "Do you have a tendency to commit suicide?"
But the young man shook his head and said, "You can enter the restricted area now and take a look."
Snow Leopard was stunned. Although he didn't understand what kind of medicine this young man was selling in the gourd, he still walked into this so-called restricted area, but soon he discovered that this was not a restricted area at all, but the living area of the entire camp.
People living here are old people, children, and even some pregnant women.
He walked all the way and found that the women and children who were still working under the night were looking at him with respect. When Snow Leopard was surprised, the young man following him said: "If you don't have the same skin color as the general, you can go
You will definitely not be respected if you enter here."
"Yeah." Xue Bao frowned. Cang Long just said that there were only more than 100 combatants in the entire camp. He thought that the other 400 or so people were logistics support, but he didn't expect that they were all old, weak, women and children.
"The general used his wisdom to bring us a stable life, so we respect him, and we still fight for our beliefs and for this country. As for the money the general took, that is part of what he deserves.
, even if he doesn't take it away, someone will take it from us, but the general also provides us with protection." The young man spoke with a look of reverence.
"You really don't hate him?" Snow Leopard couldn't believe it.
"We don't hate the generals, nor do we hate the drug dealers." The young man said, his face suddenly turned cold. "We only hate that we live next to the United States, and we only hate the Americans."
"Why?"
"Because the Americans don't want us to be strong, they don't need a strong Mexico, they just want a Mexico with constant civil war. On our land, we only have 130,000 government troops, but there are 100,000 drug traffickers.
Even their weapons are more advanced than the government troops." The young man looked at the Snow Leopards coldly, "These weapons were provided to them by the Americans. Without the support of the Americans, our land would not be plagued by war every day, the general told
If we want to avoid being bullied and gain respect, we must take up arms to defend our dignity. The weak will not get sympathy."
"How old are you this year?" Snow Leopard asked.
"Twenty." The young man looked a little depressed.
Xue Bao couldn't believe that these words were actually said by a twenty-year-old kid. By comparison, those twenty-year-old young people in China are probably studying, worrying about homework, and constantly asking their parents.
But this Mexican boy has already picked up a gun, defending his own dignity for his own beliefs, and also protecting the old, weak, women and children around him.
"Then why don't you join the government army?" Snow Leopard suddenly asked strangely, as if he had found a reason to defeat the admiration of Canglong in the young people's hearts. "Wouldn't joining the government army allow you to better utilize your talents?"
"Haha." But the young man looked at Snow Leopard with contempt, "If the government troops had the ability to end the war long ago, why would they spend huge amounts of money to invite us? There are too many cancers in the government, and they are doing business with drug dealers.
, they are corrupting this country, colluding with the Americans, and betraying their own compatriots, so we can only pick up our guns and fight."
Xue Bao could not have imagined that he would be despised by a twenty-year-old young man, but every word of this twenty-year-old young man was so heavy, so realistic, and so cruel.
"Do you think there is really hope for this?" Snow Leopard asked.
"I don't know." The young man shook his head, "I don't know when we can win, and I don't know how long this drug darkness will last for Mexico. I only know that if we don't fight, our next president will
It's probably a drug lord. All I know is that if we don't fight, we will never see the dawn of dawn."
After saying that, the young man left with his gun, leaving Snow Leopard standing there alone, not knowing what to say.
Under the guise of independence and freedom, Uncle Sam launched a war in the Middle East thousands of miles away from them, but the small country around him was always in chaos. This is the democracy and justice of the United States.
Snow Leopard knew very well that in terms of military strength, the Americans could wipe out all the drug lords in Mexico by sending out a few well-equipped divisions, but they chose not to do so because there was no oil here.
At this moment, he suddenly understood why Canglong was so disdainful of his accusations, because the person who was really making huge fortunes from the war was not Canglong but the US government around Mexico.
Looking at the young man walking away, Snow Leopard couldn't help but asked loudly: "What is your name?"
The young man didn't look back or stop walking and said, "My name is 197."
